Wei Feng stayed for a long time, his face was pale, and it was not until there was a sound of the piano in the bamboo garden that he held the reins and rode forward two steps.

Li Hong followed and asked, "Lord Shizi, where are we going now?" ”

Emperor Zhaoyuan handed over the refugee matter to Wei Feng to deal with, and asked him to settle these people, not only to test his ability, but also to give an explanation to these people. Wei Feng went up the mountain today for this matter, he turned the horse's head, and his voice was like a faint sound from an ancient well: "Go down the mountain and have a look." ”

Li Hong hit his horse and followed.

This Su Xi followed Mr. Gu to practice the piano, practiced for a long time, and always thought about the second brother saying that there were refugees in the mountains.

Mr. Gu must have known about the refugees, so he didn't say anything more and let the boy send her halfway up the mountain.

Su Xi said goodbye to the boy and told the coachman to continue on his way.

The first part of the road was smooth and there were few obstacles. When we reached the foot of the mountain, there was a sudden commotion ahead, and the coachman had to stop the carriage on the side of the road. Listen to the oriole lift the curtain and ask, "What's the matter?" Why did it stop all of a sudden? ”

The driver pointed ahead, "There are too many refugees in front of you, blocking the way, and there is no way to go on this road, so you can only change to another road." ”

It's just that the road is rugged and difficult, and on the other side of the road is a cliff, which is prone to accidents, and generally no one wants to go there.

Su Xi looked out through the curtain and saw a group of people crowded not far in front of him, all with dark faces and ragged clothes, and they looked like they hadn't eaten for several days. A few of them saw the carriage of the General's Mansion and shuffled towards it. Su Xi hurriedly lowered the curtain and said to the coachman: "Give them a little silver, don't embarrass them." ”

The coachman should have been, groped out a few copper plates from his arms and threw them over.

Several refugees rushed to pick up the copper plates. The coachman raised his whip and was about to turn the wheel of the chariot, but he saw them rushing to him and stretching out his hand to ask for food. The coachman shook his head and said no, and the refugees reached out to snatch the reins from him.

The coachman shouted loudly, but unfortunately it had little effect, and there were still refugees standing in front of the carriage.

Oriole got out of the wagon and threw them a little bit of silver, and a few pieces of pastry that they had brought with them on the way. I thought they should leave now, but unexpectedly, there were more and more people, and the refugees in the distance saw that there were people giving alms here, and they also surrounded them.

Tingli was pulled and pulled by several yellow-faced and skinny women, and fell under the carriage. Su Xi listened to the movement outside, her heart was flustered and confused, she finally knew how terrible the refugees were at this time, the second brother didn't lie to her, she was too naïve, and the few family members brought out of the house couldn't stop these people at all.

The coachman pulled the bird up from underneath, jerked the horse hard, and rushed out of the crowd without hesitation. The victims were frightened and hurried backwards, and did not stagger away until the carriage was far away.

The carriage went down another road, the snow on the hill had not melted, and the road was already steep, so the coachman walked very carefully. The mountain road was slippery, and just halfway through, the stones above his head were loose, and he rolled down from above, and one of the big stones hit the horse's back, and the horse was frightened, raised his horse's hooves, and rushed forward uncontrollably.

There was a turn in front of him, and the road was already narrow, and when the horse turned, the soles of his feet slipped, and he suddenly fell to the side.

Even the carriage with the back of the carriage fell off the cliff, and the coachman hurriedly hugged a tree on the edge of the cliff, and dragged the oriole with one hand, and when he looked back, he saw that the carriage fell under the cliff with the horse.

Hearing this, the bird was shocked and exclaimed, "Girl—"

*

At the foot of the mountain, Wei Feng counted the number of refugees and asked the nearby county magistrate to register the names of the refugees one by one, and he clamped the horse's belly and was about to go back.

Li Hong rode a horse from a distance, stopped in front of Wei Feng and said, "Lord Shizi, there is a carriage on the mountain that has fallen into the cliff, and the coachman begs you to help find someone." ”

Wei Feng looked over and said, "The road down the mountain is flat, how can you fall into the cliff?" ”

Li Hongdao: "I heard that there were refugees blocking the carriage on the road, and the coachman had to change to another road, which was not easy to walk. ”

Wei Feng arranged for more than a dozen people to help find someone, and asked, "Who is the person who fell?" ”

Li Hong shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't know. ”

After a while, the refugees here were all arranged, and Wei Feng was about to go home, when he saw a person from a distance, wearing a lake-green skirt, who was one of the big maids beside Su Xi. He twisted his eyebrows, and had a bad premonition in his heart, so he urged him to step forward and said, "What about Miss Su Jiu?" Why don't you serve by her side? ”

Hearing that the bird was so anxious that he was about to cry, the coachman went back to the general's mansion to spread the word, and the general's mansion had not yet arrived. She couldn't rescue the Nine Girls alone, so she could only ask for help from these people, and for the sake of the Nine Girls' reputation, she couldn't tell her identity, but these people's movements were too slow, and it had been an hour, and they still hadn't heard any news.

Seeing Wei Feng at this time, Tingli seemed to see a savior, crying and begging: "Please save my girl......"

Wei Feng listened to what had happened after listening to Li, his hand holding the reins tightened, and he turned around and ordered Li Hong in a cold voice: "Immediately dispatch fifty people to go to the bottom of the cliff with me." ”

Only then did Li Hong know that it was the ninth girl of the Su family who fell into the bottom of the cliff, so he hurriedly cheered up, called fifty people, and rode behind Wei Feng to rush down the cliff.

*

The General's Mansion soon got the news.

As soon as the old lady heard that her little granddaughter had fallen under the cliff, she closed her eyes and fainted.

Although the Qingshui Mountain is not high, the cliff is also quite steep, and if you fall into it, you will not die, but you will also be seriously injured.

Yin's face turned pale, and he sat back on the Luohan couch, and said in shock: "What did you say? ”

The eldest girl Danlu was also extremely shocked, and repeated: "The coachman said that the carriage of the nine girls fell into the cliff, and the whereabouts of the nine girls have not been found yet......"

Yin Shi had a "bang" in his head, and he fainted before he could speak.

The general's mansion was in a mess, the eldest lord Su Zhen came back from the officialdom, and he had already heard about it on the way, so he hurriedly sorted out the clues and arranged for someone to go to Qingshui Mountain to find someone, and then someone invited Doctor Hao to check the pulse of the old lady and Yin.

As soon as Su Zhen turned around, he saw Su Zhi walking outside, and stopped him loudly: "Brother Zhi'er, where are you going?" ”

Su Zhi clenched his fists and said, "I'll go find Youyou." ”

He shouldn't have it, knowing that there was danger on Qingshui Mountain, but he still let Youyou go out alone, if something happened to Youyou, he would be to blame for his death.

Su Zhen couldn't stop him, so he had to let him go.

In the second room of Xihu Garden, Guo's also heard the news, but she was not as panicked as the old lady and Yin's, but calmly lay back on the bed, and smiled softly gloatingly. Deserve. Guo thought so, the Yin family took the initiative to marry her sister Rong to a notorious son, and God came to punish her, so that she could also taste the pain of losing her children.

It was getting dark, the night was falling, and the valley was silent.

Su Xi only felt that her body hurt a lot, it hurt everywhere, her body seemed to have been run over by more than a dozen carriages, and the pain made her small body curl up in a ball, not moving for a long time.

When the carriage fell, it first fell to a hundred-year-old tree, which eased the momentum and then fell to the ground. Su Xi was in the carriage, and because he still had a few large pillows under him, he was not seriously injured. But Tinglu, who fell down with her, was not so lucky, and was thrown out of the carriage halfway, and I don't know where it is at this time.

The carriage broke into planks, and naturally it could no longer be used. Su Xi lay down for a while, and only after his body was not so painful did he slowly sit up from the ground.

She looked around, and behind her was a cliff with an eerie wood. The sun was setting, and the woods were quiet and dark. She looked up the woods, and found that if she wanted to get out of here, it seemed that she had to go up the woods.

Su Xi hesitated for a long time, but still didn't dare to step into the forest. It's already dark, and who knows what's going to be inside? If she encounters jackals, tigers and leopards, let alone go home, her life may not be saved.

Su Xi didn't know if anyone would find her, she stood in the empty valley with her hands down, isolated and helpless, looking quite miserable. After standing for a moment, she lowered her head and wiped her tears with her fingers, then turned and walked back.

Su Xi's hair was messy when she fell, and the crystal jasper hairpin hung obliquely to the side, she simply pulled the hairpin off, tied a thick black hair to one side with a silk handkerchief, and held the hairpin tightly in case of any danger.

The calves and back hurt badly, especially the back, which was hot, probably bruised when I fell. But at this time, Su Xi didn't have time to check, the surroundings were dark, and she couldn't see anything, she looked around, trying to see if she could find Tinglu, but she shouted several times, but she didn't get any response.

Su Xi was terrified, she had never spent the night in the wilderness, let alone by herself. The more frightened I was, the more fierce the tears flowed, and in the end my vision was blurred, and I couldn't go any longer, so I squatted down and cried silently for a while. She didn't dare to cry too loudly, for fear of attracting some beast, so she rubbed her tears on her sleeve sideways, and her eyes and nose were red.

Do your parents and brothers know she's here, and will they be able to find her tomorrow? If she can't find it, how can she go back alone?

Su Xi thought as he stood up and continued walking, this time he didn't plan to look for Tinglu, the top priority was to find a place to stay first.

After walking for a while, there was a small cave ahead, and the entrance of the cave was covered by straw. Su Xi held the straw and moved it away little by little, cleaned up the inside, and then sat in.

The cave was small, it could only accommodate about two people, but it was enough for Su Xi, she was petite, and sitting there with her knees held alone didn't take much space. Su Xi put the straw she had just removed under her, rested her chin on her knees, and stared at the entrance of the cave with her dark eyes.

Rao is walking just now consumed a lot of body, and her whole body is sore and painful, but she doesn't dare to sleep now.

After a while, Su Xi couldn't hold it anymore, her upper and lower eyelids fought, and finally she couldn't bear it and closed her eyes sleepily.

I didn't sleep for long, but I heard a sound from the entrance of the cave. Su Xi's body stiffened, opened his eyes quickly, and looked out steadily.

I saw a slender figure turn off his horse and walk towards him. She picked up the crystal jasper hairpin beside her and held it in her hand, she didn't know who the other party was, it would be nice if she came to look for her, but she was frightened by the refugees in the mountains today, and she didn't dare to trust anyone casually. In case it was a bad guy, she ...... Thinking of this, Su Xi was so nervous that her palms were sweating.

When the other party walked to the entrance of the cave, Su Xi held his breath, opened his eyes wide, and did not dare to say anything.

In the next moment, I saw that the other party blew up the fire fold, holding the hole with one hand and the fire fold in the other, leaning down and looking at her.

After Su Xi saw his face clearly, he opened his mouth in surprise and said incredulously: "Ting ......"

Wei Feng's jet-black pupils locked on her little face, and Junrong couldn't see clearly in the dark, and could only hear his deep voice, slightly hoarse: "I finally found you." ”
