Chapter 51: Saving People
"Nuan Nuan, after buying these furniture, can we still have money?" There was no one left and right on the way back, and Wu Xingzhou finally couldn't help but ask cautiously. Twelve pieces of new-style large furniture cost more than 180 taels of silver, and Wu Xingzhou was dizzy at that time, so he saw that the little sister took out a hundred taels of silver ingots, a fifty taels of silver ingots, and more than 30 taels of broken silver from the cloth bag......
"Brother Xingzhou, I dug up a wild ginseng two days ago, sold it today, and got a lot of silver, Uncle Erga was here just now, I didn't dare to say it!" Wu Nuandong pretended to explain mysteriously in Wu Xingzhou's ear, and secretly opened the corner of the cloth bag, and sure enough, there were a few silver ingots in it. This was secretly prepared by her when she was carrying people, and the tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver were stuffed into the Yufu wooden house early, and it was not as safe and reliable as the space wherever it was hidden.
Wu Xingzhou was so frightened that he suddenly held down Wu Nuandong's little hand, his face changed, he looked around cautiously, and whispered, "Don't lift the cloth bag, Nuan Nuan, you did the right thing, and the heart of defense is indispensable." He picked up the cloth bag and hugged it in his arms, his little face was full of solemnity, "You still put away these silver warmth, don't say anything about it, you know?" ”
"Hmmm! Know! ”
Seeing Wu Nuandong's serious little head, Wu Xingzhou sighed, holding the heavy silver bag and still had a sense of unreality surrounded by clouds and mountains.
After a while, "Nuan Nuan, can this wild ginseng really sell for so much money?" ”
"Uh-huh!"
"Nuan Nuan, you pinch your brother, see if your brother is not dreaming, right?"
"Nuan Nuan is reluctant to pinch you, or Brother Zhou, you bite the silver ingot, if you have a toothache, it's not a dream!"
Wu Xingzhou was just about to unwrap the package obediently, but suddenly thought of something, and pinched Wu Nuandong's little nose with a smile, "Little naughty!" The wealth of the blue sky and the white day is not exposed! ”
"Brother Xingzhou, don't think about it, this money has to be used to build a house and buy furniture!" Looking at Wu Xingzhou's excitement of 'going out to pick up gold', Wu Nuandong had to pour cold water, if Wu Xingzhou didn't return to normal, it would be difficult to explain to so many gossipy aunts when he returned to the village!
"Uh-huh! Also buy beautiful clothes for Nuan Nuan to wear! Wu Xingzhou was stupid, showing his white teeth and holding the package like a silly boy, "Nuan Nuan is really amazing!" Go home and let Qiuzhi make fragrant braised pork for you to eat! ”
After he reminded him, Wu Nuandong remembered what he had forgotten, the four brothers and sisters only had two clothes each, these days they are either deep in the mountains or on the construction site, the clothes come and go in the mud, wash every day and change every day, it is not enough to wear at all, and today I just went around to the town to buy a few new clothes.
"Brother Xingzhou, don't laugh, your eyes are gone!" Wu Nuandong finally got angry and slapped Wu Xingzhou's mouth.
"Haha, I'm so happy, it's okay, it's okay, I don't laugh!"
Wu Nuandong rolled his eyes, just because he didn't make a sound, and his chapped mouth and white teeth were creepy.
For a moment, Wu Xingzhou couldn't smile anymore, hugged the package tightly with sweat, and stared around vigilantly.
This is an old forest, it is the most remote part of the road back to the village, it is rare and inhabited, the big tree has two adults with a thick waist, if you hide a few people it is really not a problem, after the woods, it is the lively Pingji Town, and the public security is okay. Although I haven't heard of robbers or anything in normal times, who can tell in this disaster year.
Maybe it was the appearance of the iron rooster that God couldn't see Wu Xingzhou, a column of people and horses galloped over, and the dirt road was instantly overstretched, and the two people on the donkey cart were suddenly blinded and coughed constantly.
Wu Xingzhou put down the package at this time, turned around and half-hugged Wu Nuandong to cover the dust for her. After waiting for the horses to walk for a long time, the noise slowly subsided, and the donkey cart set off again, but did not take two steps, only heard a pop, and two figures fell from the dense trees in front of them, stained with blood.
"Don't be afraid!" Wu Xingzhou hurriedly blocked Wu Nuandong's eyes. After the famine, he has also seen a lot of dead corpses, but the little sister is well protected, the two people in front of him are bleeding so much, they must not survive, don't scare the little sister.
"It's okay! Maybe not dead yet! Wu Nuandong's ears were clear, and he could see that the two of them were falling on top of each other, and the person under the pressure was probably more than lucky, but the person who was slightly smaller above should still be alive.
"Brother Xingzhou, shall we save it?"
"Let's see!" Wu Xingzhou jumped off the donkey cart and stepped forward to probe first, and sure enough, as Wu Nuandong expected, the small man was alive for a long time, "Huh! When the others turned over, Wu Xingzhou shouted in surprise, "It's a child!" ”
Wu Xingzhou finally carried him to the donkey cart after a little consideration, and Wu Nuandong helped carry the person up.
Said to be a child, he is also older than Wu Xingzhou, he looks fourteen or fifteen years old, even if he is stained with a lot of mud, he can see that his face is pale and miserable, and there are two half-arm-long bloody wounds on his abdomen and chest, revealing hideous flesh and blood.
"If you continue to flow like this, you will die sooner or later!" Wu Xingzhou patted his head anxiously, this place is not far from the town, but no one can say whether the team just now is the enemy of the young man.
The two looked at each other and made up their minds tacitly, the sympathy of the people who broke through the natural disaster was almost gone, but it was a child who was not much older than Wu Chunxi to have good thoughts, after all, Wu Chunxi was also out of the house, and if he encountered difficulties, he hoped that someone could also help.
Wu Nuandong took out her universal package, took out a few fresh thistles, put them in his mouth, chewed them, and pasted them on the two wounds of the young man. After that, he raised the boy's head and covered it with a water hyacinth, and fed him a mouthful of spiritual spring water.
The wound immediately stopped bleeding and tended to heal slowly. Fortunately, the herbs mixed with blood and water were not carefully looked at, and Wu Xingzhou himself was not a meticulous person, so when he saw that there was no bloodshed, he quickly spread a layer of hay on him, and drove around the road to the village.
"Nuan Nuan, let's not go to town first!" When I went to town, I didn't meet the people from before.
"I'm not going!" Wu Nuandong also agreed, with such a tricky goods, he couldn't hit people's guns.
In the end, the two avoided the villagers and sent them to a cave found by Wu Nuandong of Shenhu Peak, which was half a person high and only large enough for two people to lie down. The hay made a bed, Wu Nuandong fed him a lot of spiritual spring water, and seeing that the person's breathing gradually stabilized, the two of them returned to the village in a panic.
When they got home, they told Wu Xia Zhi and Wu Qiuzhi about it, and the four of them decided to treat it as no such thing, and had lunch slowly, Wu Xingzhou and Wu Xia Zhi went to the town to continue to buy things for use, Wu Qiuzhi helped the aunts cook at the construction site, and Wu Nuandong still went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, according to the previous activity route, so as not to be suspicious of the villagers.
