Finally, there were only twenty people left in the escape pods. The bodyguard quickly closed the hatch and set the escape button.
The people outside tried their best to knock on the hatch. The despair on their faces was reflected in Shi Sheng's eyes. Every expression was clear and vivid as if someone had pressed a slow-motion button.
A pair of warm hands covered her eyes and the scene in front of her darkened. Lu Ziyue's gentle voice rang in her ears. "Baby, don't look."
…
Shi Sheng and the others were forced to land on a barren planet. Their escape pods were snatched by a group of people as soon as they were forced to land.
Not only did they rob their belongings, but they also robbed them. If it weren't for the bodyguard protecting them, they would have been killed.
The bodyguard tried to contact Shi Mu, but the infrastructure here was very poor and the signal was intermittent. He couldn't reach her at all.
Shi Sheng couldn't remember how long they stayed on this planet with the bodyguard. She only remembered how terrible the people on that planet were. They were obviously human, but they were more inhumane than beasts. Shi Sheng saw them kill a person with her own eyes …
She didn't see the rest because Lu Ziyue covered her eyes.
That planet was simply a battlefield. Shi Sheng couldn't imagine what would have happened to them if they didn't have armed bodyguards around them.
"Miss, have something to eat first." A fair-skinned bodyguard handed the nutrient solution to Shi Sheng. "The taste may not be good, but this is all we have left. Miss, please bear with it."
Shi Sheng took the nutrient solution and smiled at the bodyguard. "Thank you."
The bodyguard scratched his head and turned to tidy up his things.
Shi Sheng opened the nutrient solution and gave it to Shi Le first.
Shi Le didn't like nutrient solutions very much. She had never taken one since she was a child. She frowned as she ate but tried to swallow it. She understood that she was not at home now and she had no right to be willful.
"Sister, drink it." Shi Le handed the remaining half of the tube to Shi Sheng. She pursed her lips and looked very pitiful.
"Drink another mouthful." Shi Sheng pushed it back.
"But …" It tasted terrible.
Shi Le swallowed the last three words and silently took another sip before handing it to Shi Sheng.
Shi Sheng didn't like the taste either. Even in the three years when Shi Mu wasn't back, she had never eaten this kind of food.
The nutrient solution was a good thing, but the taste was really indescribable. The company had tried their best to make the food taste good, but it contained a large number of nutrients that the human body needed. How could it taste good when put together?
"Okay, baby." Lu Ziyue walked over tiredly. "We have to travel through the night. You guys should take the time to get some rest."
"Where are we going?" Shi Sheng asked.
"Just now, Fei Ying said that there is a small base not far away. There may be a spaceship there. We are going there." Lu Ziyue did not hide it. "We have to meet up with Dad."
Fei Ying was the captain of these bodyguards. He had just left for a long time, presumably to inquire about the news.
"Will we see Dad?" Shi Le grabbed Lu Ziyue's sleeve. "I miss Dad so much."
Lu Ziyue didn't look too good, but she couldn't show it in front of the child. She forced a smile and said, "Of course. Daddy will be waiting for us over there."
Her Brother Mu was so powerful. He would definitely be fine.
Lu Ziyue encouraged herself in her heart. She still had two children to protect. She had to cheer up.
They waited here until it was dark. Fei Ying asked all the bodyguards to check their weapons again. After confirming that there was no problem, he took them on the road.
The conditions here were harsh. There were very few places where trees could be seen. Most of them were strange rocks. The ground was uneven and very abrasive.
Shi Le was held by Lu Ziyue. She occasionally looked back at Shi Sheng, who was following behind, as if to make sure that she had not fallen behind. Later, she simply let Shi Sheng walk beside her.
"Miss, let me carry you?" The bodyguard who had handed the nutrient solution to Shi Sheng before suggested.
Fei Ying, who was walking in front, glanced back and did not speak.
Shi Sheng's childish face was a little red. She gasped and shook her head. "Thank you, I can do it myself."
The bodyguard did not insist. Fei Ying also turned back and continued to walk forward.
During the day, it was easy to be attacked. At night, as long as they did not walk on the main road and took remote paths, they would generally not be discovered by the crazy natives.
They rested during the day and traveled at night. After walking for two days, they finally saw the base mentioned by Fei Ying.
It was a very small base, but there were several spaceships parked outside the base. Some of them were damaged and had a layer of rust on their surfaces.
However, there was one that looked good and someone was repairing it, proving that it was a spaceship that could take off.
"Wait here." Fei Ying gestured to the person behind him. "Go down and check it out."
"Yes."
The bodyguard approached the base alone. Shi Sheng and Fei Ying squatted behind the rock and watched the man's figure disappear into the distance.
They waited for half a day. The bodyguard had not come out, and there was no movement at the base. The bodyguards were a little anxious and wanted to send someone in to take a look, but they were stopped by Fei Ying.
After waiting for more than an hour, the person still did not come out. Fei Ying agreed to send someone to check it out.
The person who went in came out quickly. He looked flustered and looked back frequently. It seemed that someone had rushed out to chase him.
"Run!"
He shouted. The person behind him suddenly shot. The person did not find cover and rolled on the ground, but he was still shot.
"Go, go, go quickly!" Fei Ying knew that they had been discovered. He immediately protected Lu Ziyue and Shi Sheng in the middle and retreated. The other two people went to save the bodyguard in front.
However, those people were already prepared. With their little combat power, they were no match for those people at all.
Shi Sheng looked back as she ran and saw the figures of those people who had fallen.
This was not the first time she had seen dead people, but it was the first time she had seen dead people who had been with her for a long time.
Her heart was trembling.
There was a bodyguard inside who had comforted her softly and told Shi Le stories to make her happy, but at this time, he had fallen under the muzzle of a gun and would stay in this strange place forever.
Shi Sheng's eyes were sore, but there were no tears. She staggered and was supported by the bodyguard beside her. The bodyguard did not say anything and ran with her in his arms.
The gunshots were getting closer and closer …
They were surrounded.
The bodyguards protected them in the middle. Lu Ziyue hugged Shi Le with a pale face and held Shi Sheng in her arms with one hand.
One of the people who surrounded them walked out. He smiled and said, "Madam Shi, ladies, please come with us."
"Who are you!" Lu Ziyue asked in a trembling voice.
"You will know when you get there." The other party's gaze swept across the bodyguards and finally stopped on Fei Ying. "Brother, we only want Madam Shi and her two daughters. If you leave voluntarily, we will not interfere with each other's business. How about it?"
Fei Ying snorted coldly. "Who do you think I am?"
The other party raised his eyebrows as if he had heard of this name before. "So you are the famous Fei Ying. What a pity, what a pity …"
He said a few words in a row and waved his hand. The people surrounding them raised their weapons and aimed at them.
"Except for the target, kill everyone else!"
