Chapter 147 Moral Kidnapping
After sighing, Su Xigen wanted to strip the young man of his belongings and hide them on himself. When he got to a place where there was no drought, he would pawn them. That would be a huge sum of money!
He never thought about rescuing the boy.
After all, they were fleeing from a disaster, not going on a picnic. They themselves were already short of food and water. If they rescued another person and added another mouth to feed, it would be even more difficult!
If they were really good people who wanted to save people, wouldn't there be a Mu Yan in their original team?
He's a person who knows me well, so maybe there will be some reward after I save him.
The person in front of me is not someone I recognize at all except that he looks rich. Why should I go back?
Su Xigen didn't want to cause any more trouble for himself.
So he started to pick up things from the boy's body and hide them on himself, with no intention of saving him at all.
Su Fuzhu stood near the young man and looked at Su Xigen, intending to ask Su Xigen to save people. However, she did not expect that after Su Xigen came over, he was only concerned with hiding valuables and did not understand her meaning at all.
So, Su Fuzhu was a little angry.
She subconsciously felt that this boy was very important to her and she must rescue him.
So when he saw that Su Xigen didn't save the man, he became angry, stepped forward, and when Su Xigen was not paying attention, he pushed the man to the ground.
Su Xigen never thought that he would be pushed to the ground by Su Fuzhu like this.
Not to mention the age and body size difference between the two, the father-daughter relationship between them alone made Su Xigen think that Su Fuju should not treat him like this.
He is the elder, Su Fuzhu's biological father. Su Fuzhu is so old, but she dares to push her biological father. If there is any conflict between them when they grow up, wouldn't that cost his life?
The moment he was pushed to the ground, Su Xigen suddenly felt a little regretful. Why didn't he and Zhang Chuncao have a son after all these years?
As he thought about it, he suddenly felt that it was all Old Lady Su's fault.
If it weren't for Old Lady Su whispering in his ear every day that Su Fuzhu was a blessed girl, he wouldn't have never thought of having another child in all these years.
Which farmer doesn't want a son? If he only has a daughter, wouldn't he be extinct?
After thinking it through while sitting on the ground, he looked up at Su Fuzhu with a hint of hostility in his eyes.
Su Fuzhu seemed not to feel his gaze, and took back the things he had taken from the boy while he was distracted, put them back on the boy, and said very seriously:
"Dad, we have to rescue him!"
She spoke with certainty and force, but she did not explain why she wanted to rescue the young man.
He didn't tell the reason and there was no way to convince Su Xigen. Su Xigen just thought it was weird that this girl was a lucky girl.
"Help me!"
Su Xigen was still thinking about finding water. He was already annoyed by Su Fuzhu's insistence on running somewhere else. He wanted to make some money when he met a half-dead person but was stopped. Now he was asked to rescue someone. If he hadn't thought that Su Fuzhu was his mother's life, he would have wanted to slap Su Fuzhu long ago.
Su Fuzhu didn't spend much time with Su Xigen on weekdays. Whenever she was with Su Xigen, it was during Su Xigen's free time and he had no worries. Naturally, Su Xigen was willing to be more friendly to Su Fuzhu because Old Lady Su firmly believed that Su Fuzhu was a lucky girl.
But now is not a leisurely moment, so Su Xigen's attitude is more impatient.
Su Fuzhu knew how to read people's faces. Even though she was unhappy that her father didn't listen to her, she didn't show it on her face. She just wanted to fulfill the call of her subconscious mind and bring this boy back.
So, as if she had learned it all by herself, she began a seemingly reasonable moral kidnapping:
Su Fuzhu: "Dad, don't you think this little brother is pitiful?"
Su Xigen: "I don't think that we who are fleeing from the disaster and lacking food and water are any more pitiful than him, right?"
Su Fuzhu: "Dad, this little brother is not dead yet. If you leave him here, he will die!"
Su Xigen: "If we pick him up, we won't have enough food and water, and we'll starve to death!"
Su Fuzhu: "Daddy, when grandma was burning incense and praying to Buddha, the great monk in the temple always said that saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!"
Su Xigen: "We are in a difficult time now, why hasn't anyone come to save us? Why build a seven-story pagoda?"
Su Fuzhu: "But, Daddy, this little brother is dressed so well, he will definitely repay us if we save him! And I don't think he is escaping from a disaster, but he seems to be separated from his family. If we save him, good people will definitely be rewarded!"
Su Fuzhu looked at Su Xigen with her sincere eyes, and wished desperately in her heart that Su Xigen could save the boy.
It was not known whether her wish worked or her particularly sincere eyes blinded Su Xigen, but Su Xigen finally did not refute his words.
However, although Su Xigen did not refute her saving the boy, he did not support her either.
Su Xigen still remembered that he had to go find water. After all, if he didn't find water, he would really have no water to drink.
So, he left a sentence to Su Fuzhu, "If you want to save yourself, save yourself. Anyway, this place is not far from the team, so go back by yourself", and then turned and went towards the dense forest.
He had to find water!
Su Fuzhu didn't expect that Su Xigen neither stopped her nor helped, but her heart told her that she must rescue this man, so she started her own action.
So, Su Fuzhu bent down and wanted to move the boy back, but this plot happened to trigger the words that Song Rending had changed before.
When she bent down and pulled the clothes on the boy's shoulders to quickly move him back to the team's resting place, her hand that was about to touch the clothes on the boy's shoulders suddenly changed direction and clamped two particularly sticky pieces of cloth around the boy.
There was no tape in that era, so in order to make the plot complete, two pieces of sticky cloth similar to tape suddenly appeared.
That thing just happened to stick to the boy, allowing Su Fuzhu to drag him back.
However, the sticky feeling made Su Fuzhu, who seldom touched dirty things, feel a little uncomfortable, and he wanted to spit on it for no reason.
Then, even more inexplicably, his dry throat seemed to be filled with phlegm. He coughed a few times and finally spat it out.
Su Fuzhu felt uncomfortable. The more she dragged the boy back, the more uncomfortable she felt. The phlegm in her throat seemed to be endless, making her cough and spit constantly.
The violent coughing made her want to cover her mouth with her hands, which resulted in the cloth stuck to her hands, and she was thrown to the ground.
The refugees who had been eyeing the unconscious boy for a long time, originally wanted to wait a while before taking action when they saw a fairer girl coming, but they did not expect to see this scene. They hid in the corners, stunned.
