The three days passed in the blink of an eye, and early in the morning of the fourth day, before dawn, the daily drums of the pass had not yet come, and the people of the small flag were already ready to go. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Shen Xingnan went to retrieve ten war horses yesterday afternoon, and Hou Hai also found his relationship to get back three cars without roofs and wheels and boards, but they could make do with it.

Shen Xingnan assembled the three carriages and used two war horses to pull them, and assigned the two carriages to Xie Xiaodan, Ge Dazhuang, and Zhang Dali, so that the three of them could make do with these two cars, let Xiaohai catch a carriage that pulled feed and other materials, and let the drunkard Lao Ding, Bai Fatzi, Ye Xiucai, and Shan Dan take care of them one by one.

Li Yunbao moved the big guys such as kang cabinets, water tanks, and cabinets to the donkey cart, and these things were also full of various things such as grain, quilts, etc., because they really couldn't be placed, the big iron pot barrel and the little chicken, and the big hum Erha were all put on the carriage that Xiao Hai was driving, and Xing'er was also arranged to sit with Xiao Hai in that car.

In the yard, the vegetable seedlings that have emerged in the vegetable field can be transplanted, and they are dug out by themselves, and some soil is used in a frame to raise it, and it is covered with a straw curtain.

The team began to move forward slowly, Shen Xingnan's donkey cart fell last, Shen Xingnan and An Ge'er were on guard, and Li Yunbao moved quickly and neatly to put the firewood from Xiaohai's thatched house into the space together with the remaining firewood from his own house, and checked back and forth in the house and found that there was nothing missing.

Shen Xingnan drove the donkey cart, Li Yunbao sat side by side with Brother An in his arms, and the family walked towards an unknown place.

This time, they were heading further north in the direction of Baisong Town, and when they arrived at Baisong Town, they needed to hand over to the Qianhusho over there, and then walked a little northeast to reach the newly established Baihusho, which would be the final destination of their group.

On this day, they walked near Xianshan Town, and when the group arrived in Shen, it rained in the sky.

"Damn, it's raining at this time, how can we get through tonight!" When Ge Giant saw the rain in the sky, he began to complain irritably.

When it just started to rain, Li Yunbao had already carried An Ge'er to his chest with a strap again, wrapped himself and Shen Xingnan in oiled paper cloth, and then held up an umbrella and looked fully armed.

On Xiaohai and Xing'er's side, Li Yunbao was also afraid of a lot of rain in spring before setting off, so he had prepared his coat and umbrella early, and they were all dressed at this time, so Li Yunbao didn't have to worry about it at all.

Before the rain became heavier and heavier, Xue Qing's sister-in-law, sister-in-law Xie, and Huazhi's sister-in-law also took umbrellas and umbrellas, and those who wore lily clothes wore lily clothes, and they all took action to take care of their children and belongings.

Only the four horseback riders suffered, because they were all men who lived alone, and they didn't think about preparing these essential items for the home.

Originally, Shen Xingnan wanted everyone to continue walking forward to see if they could find a place to shelter from the rain, because even if they were going back, Shen Xingnan didn't see a place for everyone to take shelter from the rain on the way.

Just now, the drunkard Lao Ding obeyed Shen Xingnan's orders, shook his horsewhip and rode forward to investigate, just as Shen Xingnan hesitated whether to let the group continue to move forward, the old drunkard came back to tell him.

"Little Flag Chief, I just went to investigate, and there is no place to shelter from the rain ahead, what do you think this can do? Even if we can stand it, this woman and the children can't stand it!"

"Anan, you ask people to find out if there is a rock wall nearby, I have a tent, let's make do with it, Lao Ding is right, if it can't be delayed any longer, the children will not be able to stand it, it is still a little cold this day!"

The old drunkard heard Li Yunbao say this, and hurriedly interjected, "Yes, there is a rock wall about two miles ahead, and that place is quite spacious, Xiaoqi, can we rush over now?"

"Okay, Brother Ding, please lead the way, let's go over there to avoid it."

When the old drunkard received the order, he rode to the front of the procession and led the group to the place where he saw it.

After walking in the rain for about a quarter of an hour, Li Yunbao saw the place Lao Ding said from afar.

This rock wall is located on a low slope on the right side of the road, the rock wall is slightly about ten meters long, and the top is slightly protruding fifty or sixty centimeters, and there is a narrow open space area of about 20 square meters around the bottom.

After the group arrived at the place, the old drunkard sighed: "I rode fast just now, I just looked up from afar, I knew that this place was not bad, what kind of strength did I run blindly!"

"Hey, this place can only be the next choice, if there are people in front of us who can give us a night, it is not better, this place is leaking on three sides and raining, and there is no dry firewood, it is so cold that everyone is not comfortable staying overnight here!"

After dismounting, Ye Xiucai heard the old drunkard's words, so he stepped forward and said to the old drunkard.

"Hey, too! It's nothing wrong with our old man, it's just that this woman and the child are going to suffer. Zhang Datie also came up and said.

Li Yunbao asked Shen Xingnan to quickly turn out the tent from the donkey cart, and then several men quickly set up the tent close to the rock wall according to Li Yunbao's requirements.

In order to build this not a small tent, Shen Xingnan also asked Ge Juju to cut down a few trees in front of the rock wall, there is no way to rectangle this open space, and the tent made by Li Yunbao is not small, and it is square, in order to cooperate with this tent, it can only be cut down trees.

After a while, Li Yunbao looked at the tent that had been set up, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The horses were tied to the protrusions of the rock wall, the wagons and donkey carts were covered with things as much as possible, and the big guys came to the tents and squeezed together.

But no matter how much you squeeze this tent, it was only five or six square meters, everyone gave the middle to the women and children, and the men all consciously and spontaneously sat outside, and finally they couldn't squeeze Ge Juju and Zhang Dali and others ran to the rock wall to hide from the rain.

Although it is the beginning of April and the snow has melted, the weather can still be very cold sometimes, for example, now that a spring rain has fallen, everyone is still shivering with cold, not to mention these men who have been drenched in the rain.

"Anan, we have to build a fire, otherwise everyone won't be able to stand it."

"Well, I'll figure it out."

Shen Xingnan also thought of this, although there was a lot of dry firewood in Li Yunbao's space, it was not easy to use it blatantly.

The husband and wife could only sneak to the donkey cart together, and took out a bundle of firewood in the water tank on the cart, of course, the firewood was poured out of the space, and the two dared to do this because all the things in their own house were cleaned up by Li Yunbao himself, and they didn't let Xing'er interfere.

But even so, they can't take more, after all, there is not much in this place, only trees and firewood, who will be full of food and nothing to do, and rush with a lot of firewood?

It's a bit risky to take so much out, but it's not impossible to get through, so the couple discussed it and felt that they took out such a bundle of dry firewood, and said that Li Yunbao packed it up just in case, just like a tent to be prepared.
