Chapter 28 Childish

At night, the team rests outside the city gate.

In the evening, Su Ying took the sesame seed cakes she bought from her bag and asked everyone to eat them with water, and another person took a piece of dried tiger meat. Everyone was injured today. They haven’t slept since Xiao Jin and Su Ying fell off the cliff. After a restful sleep, now that they have all returned safely, they can finally take a good nap for a while.

But after sleeping until midnight, it started to rain again.

Su Ying, who was leaning on the side of the carriage, opened her eyes, and saw someone walking towards this side in the dark rain.

Due to being drenched by the rain, people in the team woke up one after another.

"Hey, look over there, why are there so many people coming?" A prisoner pointed to the direction of the official road outside the city gate.

Others heard his voice and looked towards the official road one after another, and they saw a dense crowd of people walking over.

Riding in the night, those black figures gradually appeared in the gray-white moonlight.

They were pale and haggard, and they all came outside the city gate like walking corpses. Seeing that the city gate hadn't opened yet, they found a place to sit on the ground. They looked a little worse than the exiled prisoners.

Su Ying stood up and frowned at those people.

Because those people made a lot of noise, many people in the team were awakened.

"It's a person fleeing famine." He Shouyi looked at those people and said. When he spoke, he had already come to the side of the carriage, and his expression became vigilant.

Su Ying thought for a while, and said: "I'll go and ask what's going on."

She walked among those people and stopped an old man who was walking towards the city gate. The old man stared at her vigilantly and said nothing.

Su Ying took out a piece of dry food from his body, quickly stuffed it into the uncle's hand and said in a low voice: "Master, what's going on with you? It's late at night, why are you all coming to Yunshui City?"

The uncle glanced at the dry food in his hand, quickly hid it, and said: "There is a flood over there. We escaped from the village. It has been raining for days, and the dam on the upper reaches of the Wujiang River has a big hole. Our village They are all submerged, so we can only go north." After finishing speaking, the uncle ignored Su Ying, and sat down at a place closest to the city gate, so that he could enter as soon as the city gate opened in the morning.

Su Ying returned to the side of the carriage. At this time, except for the three sleeping children in the carriage, everyone else woke up.

Su Ying told them what the uncle said.

Xiao Jin's expression darkened, "Crossing the Wujiang River is the only way to get to Beihuang."

He Shouyi's face was also very ugly, "If the dam on the upper reaches of the Wujiang River collapses, we may not be able to cross it."

According to the itinerary, they first crossed the Wujiang River, arrived in Guangdong City, and then went all the way to the northwest.

But if they can’t cross the Wujiang River, their way will be blocked, and there will be nowhere to go around.

This cognition made several people become silent. If they can't leave, where can their team of hundreds of people go? After the catastrophe, there may be another catastrophe. Can they avoid it?

Thinking of all this makes my scalp tingle.

The arrival of the disaster victims made the originally silent team cast a heavier atmosphere.

The officer also sensed that the situation was wrong, and immediately selected a few strong prisoners from among the prisoners, and asked them to guard the supply cart, and asked someone to pull the cart to the side of Su Ying's carriage to walk with the carriage.

Li Da has also encountered such a situation in the past. These homeless victims who have nothing to eat are really ruthless. It doesn't matter whether you are a member of the imperial court or not. These people can eat you if they have nothing to eat. up!

Seeing more and more disaster victims, Li Da immediately organized his team to prepare to leave and stay away from these people.

But walking along this road, you can always see a steady stream of disaster victims going in the direction of Yunshui City. They all want to go to the city to hide from the disaster, but there are too many people. In order to ensure the safety of the people in the city, the government will not let them go. They went in.

"ah!"

Zhang Cuiniang suddenly exclaimed, Su Ying followed the sound and saw a dead body not far from the team that had been soaked by rain.

Su Ying frowned, telling Zhang Cuiniang not to look around and just pay attention to the road ahead.

At this time, the official who was walking ahead to explore the road came on horseback, ran up to Li Da and got off his horse neatly, "Boss, the wharf to cross the Wujiang River was flooded, and it was a waste of time for us to go there at this time. "

Li Da spat, "This year is really bad luck, and I have encountered all good jobs."

The piers are all flooded, and they are still crossing the fart of the river, but now it is raining heavily, where are they going to find a place to stay.

"Boss, go back, there is an abandoned ruined temple outside Yunshui City, it's big there." An official suggested.

Can't cross the river, and it's impossible for everyone to follow the rain all the way, so they can only find a place to stay first, Li Da nodded, and led the people back to the direction of the ruined temple.

However, they were not the only ones who could think of resting in the ruined temple. When they reached the ruined temple, there were already many fleeing victims staying inside.

When the victims saw so many people coming in at once, they all stared at them vigilantly.

In order to facilitate management, Li Da asked the officials to arrange the disaster victims to the side hall next to them, and the prisoners in the team were concentrated in the main hall, which could accommodate hundreds of people at the same time.

Su Ying led the carriage to the yard and stopped, and carried Dabao and Erbao out of the carriage, as well as the things on the carriage.

Jiang Yang took Xiao Jin and chose a relatively secluded and unobtrusive place to set down.

Su Ying hugged two small milk bags into it, and smelled the rancid smell, which made her eyes swell.

Although the hall is large enough, hundreds of people came in, and the hall was packed to the brim.

Su Ying put the two children down, "There are too many disaster victims outside, let's eat simpler these days." What she meant was that there was no fire for cooking these days, so as not to attract attention.

Su Ying's idea has been approved by everyone.

Su Ying took the medicine from her body and handed it to Dabao, "Ji'er, this is the medicine you need to take today. Although your injury has recovered a lot, it hasn't healed yet. You need to continue taking medicine until you recover. "

Dabao looked at her with eyes exactly the same as Xiao Jin's. He thought Su Ying was a villain, but this villain saved him again. Now Dabao's little mood is very complicated. He wants to continue to hate Su Ying, but he feels This is not right.

Therefore, a small face is almost wrinkled into a dehydrated cucumber.

Seeing his tangled appearance, Su Ying thought of teasing him, "If you don't take medicine, your injury won't heal, and if it doesn't heal, you won't be able to protect your father and Linger. Are you not afraid that they will be taken away by bad guys?"

When Dabao heard her words, his big eyes widened, "I will definitely protect Daddy and Linger! Hmph!"

As he spoke, he grabbed the medicine Su Ying gave him, opened his small mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Hmm!" After the sugar coating of the pills melted, the little milkman frowned so bitterly.

"Hahahaha." Seeing his cute appearance, Su Ying laughed aloud.

Dabao was not in a good mood, so he turned around and slipped into Xiao Jin's arms.

Xiao Jin glanced at Su Ying coolly, "Childish."

Su Ying's smile remained unchanged, and she raised her eyebrows provocatively, "It's also for the children."

Xiao Jin took the water bag to feed Dabao, not even giving her the corner of his eyes.

Su Ying raised her lips amusedly, father and son are really alike, of course, Dabao is much cuter than Xiao Jin.

"Officer, please give us a stutter, we haven't eaten for three days."

"Go away, there is no dry food here, get out of here."

Su Ying turned around and saw the officer was stopped by many victims outside the door.
