Chapter 307: Rescue (3)

"Pack up and go into the city with the group."

The people, who were still wondering why the official mission came here, heard the sound, and suddenly thundered with joy and took action one after another, but the situation of the people is different, some are just single and alone, just take care of themselves, some take care of their families, and there are more than a dozen people in a family, and the scene is naturally a little chaotic.

However, the experience of several old men is obviously very rich, while waving their hands, they shout and command in the dialect of the villagers that Chu Qin does not understand, and the people also unite and help each other, and after handling their own affairs properly, they do not forget to help others.

As soon as they moved, women, children, and children naturally could no longer stay in the shed, so they could only stand up to straw hats and curtains to protect themselves from the rain, or hide under the trees, and some even braved the rain to help their families pack their luggage.

Seeing this, Chu Zhen hurriedly took off his coat and draped it on a young child next to him, and before he could give an order, those smart officials followed suit.

"My lord, you must not do this." A few old men hurriedly dissuaded them, and the common people were naturally afraid of the official officials, so they dared to ask for their things.

"Why not, this is their duty, if the people of the public door can't do it wholeheartedly and help the officials pacify the people, then what's the use of keeping them." Chu Zhen raised his voice and said, his eyes seemed to have a good intention to sweep over those unmoved officials.

If such an obvious hint has not been heard, then he deserves to be dismissed, anyway, there is no such stupid official in the yamen, and when he heard this, he immediately came to his senses and stepped forward to help the people pack up.

A few minutes later, although the people had not finished cleaning up, Chu Zhen did not have time to wait any longer, leaving more than a dozen officials here to help and guide the way, and in a voice of thanks, he continued to rush to the next resettlement point with most of the people.

Seeing Chu Zhen and his party gradually drift away, and finally disappeared in the vast rain, the remaining servants suddenly recovered their original appearance, and began to slack off, a few can still pretend, and some simply lean under the dense leaves and stand by, and the people are not very comfortable in their hearts, and no one dares to complain.

The rain is still pouring down, silently pouring down, the electric light flickered, the roar was deafening, suddenly, but I saw a huge lightning bolt in the dim clouds in the sky, the light shone in the valley, shining here as if it was sunny and dayless, for a moment, some people hurriedly stopped the work at hand, subconsciously touched the ears of the children and young children beside them, did not want to, more than ten breaths passed, but the expected thunder did not fall.

Just when everyone thought that what had just crossed was virtual electricity, an arc of light fell from the sky, like a meteor cutting through the sky, falling on the earth, and coming straight to the valley, without waiting for the people to react, instantaneously, exploded, only to hear a click, a tree with a thick adult waist broke off its waist, staggered down, and a few flames could be seen jumping for a moment at the broken place, but it was extinguished by the rain that fell, and the aftermist was shrouded, and the smell of charcoal smoke could be faintly smelled

And next to the broken tree, a servant looked at the fallen tree trunk next to him in amazement, without the protection of the branches and leaves of the tree, the pouring rain poured down from head to toe, but if someone paid close attention, he could still detect that his lower body was inexplicably more pale yellow liquid.

"Mother, bad guy! was hacked by Lei Gong. A crisp child's voice sounded, and I saw a child about six or seven years old, with his little hands tightly grasping the corner of the woman's clothes beside him, and his fleshy face was full of horror.

"The kid is not sensible and talks nonsense, don't be surprised by this official."

A man next to him, who should be the father of the child, came back to his senses when he heard the words, and hit the child with his hand, making him cry and cry, and after accusing him again and again, he hurriedly dragged the woman and the child away and hid in the depths of the people, and several old men also shouted: "It's all over!" Don't be idle, or you'll go. The people also buried their heads sideways with great interest and continued to pack up their things.

The ancient people were somewhat superstitious, and the officials were naturally no exception, and the sudden lightning strike incident made the remaining officials feel straight hair, just to kill and slack off, not to hit five thunderbolts in the sky, and after a while, a few people hesitated to walk over, and asked the officials who were immortal: "Hey, brother, it's okay." ”

There was no movement in the middle of the ring, and several people took a closer look, and found that his face was full of horror, his eyes were wide open, his face was pale and bloodless, his teeth chattered, and there was no joy for the rest of his life.

"Come over quickly if you're okay." Greeted a few times, but did not see the official respond, a few people next to them realized that something was wrong, observed for a moment, and suddenly realized the reason, not that the official did not want to leave this place, but that his body was stiff, he couldn't move if he wanted to, and he was too frightened, and it seemed that it was a little difficult to even speak.

You pushed me for a few minutes, for the sake of the usual good friendship, finally two people looked nervous, cautiously approached the officer, that look, there was a lot of meaning to retreat and run away when they heard the wind and grass, lightly touched, found that it was okay, the two of them were bold, holding the pride and ambition of seeing death as home, one of them pulled up an arm, and suddenly dragged back

After running a few steps, he didn't care about the life or death of the officer, he let go directly, and after checking that there was nothing abnormal in his body, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and the officer next to him immediately surrounded him, curiously looking at the yacha who was facing the sky on his back and foaming at the mouth, not that no one was willing to help him up, mainly because he was afraid of bad luck.

Seeing the miserable situation of the yacha, a catcher sighed with emotion, suddenly snorted, took a few steps back, and shouted at the reunited officials: "Look at what, didn't you hear Chuzhi County's instructions just now, don't you go to work." ”

Stunned, the servants suddenly realized that this place really can't stay for a long time, the sooner they leave, the better, of course, they also have the idea of smearing oil on the soles of their shoes, but thinking of the fate of the unlucky yacha, even the sabotage was struck by lightning, and the sneaking was not going to be directly sent to the eighteenth layer of hell.

With the help of the officials, for a while, the people packed their luggage much faster, and what was surprising was that the unlucky yacha lying on the ground also staggered to his feet after a few minutes

"Did you find it?"

Walking on the uneven road, holding his hand to block the spilled torrential rain, Chu Zhen lowered his head and asked, along the way, he successfully found the people who were sheltering from the rain everywhere near several resettlement points, and also left the officials to help guide the way, and then came to the resettlement point by a small stream, the situation was the same as other places, the grass hut could not withstand the wind and rain, and scattered.

The people were nowhere to be seen, probably sheltering from the rain somewhere nearby, but they were searched and called by the officials, but they did not see any response from the people here.

Although the rain and fog are foggy, the field of vision is not wide, but this place is very empty, there are no hills and woods and other obstacles before and after, if you want to avoid the rain, you can only go far away, the sky is big, even if it is a sunny day, there is no hint, and you may not be able to find people, and now the rain will eliminate all traces, which increases the difficulty of finding.

"The little ones didn't find out."

"There's no one here."

After searching for the model for about ten minutes, there was still nothing, Chu Zhen couldn't help but lock his eyebrows, and at this time, someone opened his mouth to persuade: "My lord, it's not a way to go on like this, so it's better to send a few people to look for it here, let's go on." ”

Taking care of the overall situation, this is indeed a good way, Chu Zhen did not refuse, nodded in agreement, left a few people, and continued to the next resettlement point with other officials.

Although the resettlement points are scattered, there is also a special place, that is, they are set up around Hangzhou City, so a few hours later, Chu Zhen and his entourage walked around Hangzhou for most of the circle, and immediately found most of the people, what makes Chu Zhen most happy is that some of the people adjacent to the resettlement points are very coincidentally gathered in one place to shelter from the rain, which can save a lot of time.

"Xie Chuzhi County's great kindness."

"Set up an immortal plaque and worship it day and night."

In the midst of the praise, he helped the people of the last settlement site pack their bags, personally led the team to the front of the city gate, showed the pass order, and watched the people drag their families into the city, Chu Qian's anxious mood eased a little.

"Chuzhi County, hard work." Gu Kezhi, who was dressed as a fisherman, walked over and said with a smile: "You might as well go back to the county government to take a warm bath and change your clothes." ”

Chu Zhen shook his head slightly, and asked rhetorically, "Master Gu, as of now, how many people have entered the city?" ”

Gu Kezhi glanced sideways, and a scribe hurriedly stepped forward to report: "The number of people entering the city this time is two hundred and thirty-one people, and when added to the previous ones, it is two thousand seven hundred and thirteen, and as for the amount of other city gates, the small ones are unknown." ”

"Don't worry, Chuzhi County, just now the old man came from Dongcheng to inspect it, and the number of people who entered the city is about that." Gu Kezhi said comfortingly: "Presumably, the other city gates are similar, and there won't be many people missing." ”

Chu Zhen nodded gloomily, there was no discomfort in his heart, in the process of rescue, he also found that there were some people wearing linen and filial piety, even if he didn't ask, Chu Zhen also understood what was going on.

"Fan Gong once said that as long as you do your best, you will be worthy of your heart, and Chuzhi County should keep it in mind." Gu Kezhi said softly.

"Xia Guan understands." Chu Zhen is not the kind of character who likes to focus on the horns of the bull, although he still can't let go, but he can't say that he will take all the responsibility on himself, put his heavy heart aside, and asked: "The matter of placing the people in the city, if there is a place for the lower officials, please let Lord Gu give orders." ”

"No need, with Fan Gong dispatching in the city, how can there be a shortage of people." Gu Kezhi chuckled and said, "Chuzhi County has been working hard for half a day, and his face is tired, so let's go back to the Ya to rest first." ”

After crawling and rolling in the mud and rain for more than three hours, even the iron body showed signs of melting, especially after the mood was relieved, the feeling of weakness and weakness quietly emerged, Chu Zhen did not intend to hold on, so he wanted to nod and leave, but suddenly caught a glimpse of a few figures, his heart moved, and beckoned: "Li Mu, you come here." ”

Several officials who walked into the city gate with their heads bowed heard the sound, their steps froze, and they secretly complained in their hearts, and no one dared to openly disobey Chu Qian's orders in front of everyone's eyes, so they turned around slowly, moved their steps slowly, and walked over very reluctantly.

"Did anyone find it?" Chu asked, just asking casually, thinking that he could get a positive promise, but he didn't expect that several officials hung their heads and were silent.

"What's going on?" Chu Zhen suddenly felt a little bad.

Under his threatening gaze, someone couldn't help the pressure, and said: "Lord Hui, we have turned that place upside down, but. ”

"But what?" Chu Zhi's face changed abruptly, and he said sharply: "But because you are all thinking about how to be lazy and slippery, you are just perfunctory, so naturally you can't find anyone." ”

"My lord, we don't." Someone argued.

"Nope!" Chu Zhen sneered: "Look at your shoes and pants, see who dares to deny it." ”

A few officials looked down inexplicably, and like the others, they were all soaked, stained with muddy water, and didn't think there was anything special.

"After today, I don't want to see you at the county office." Not interested in clarifying the doubts, Chu Zhi said coldly, brushed his sleeves away, and the direction was the stream outside the city.

Leaving those few complaining and unconvinced, but not daring to catch up with the officials, they kept deliberately raising their voices to complain: "Even if you are the magistrate, you can't blame us indiscriminately, and it's inexplicable." ”

"Okay, if you want to mess around, change places, don't get in the way here." Next to him, Gu Kezhi frowned and said.

"Master Gu, you always have to make decisions for the little ones." A servant's eyes were purring, and he took the opportunity to climb up with the rod, and said with grief and indignation: "Little Li Mu, who keeps to himself on weekdays, is dedicated to the public, and has no reason to slack off in doing things, but I don't know why Lord Chu blames him for no reason and wants to dismiss the little ones." ”

"Unwarranted blame." Gu Kezhi smiled sarcastically, pointed to Li Mu's shoes and pants and said, "I can see clearly, what I have done, I can't talk nonsense with my conscience." ”

"Where do the little ones dare to deceive the adults." Li Mu looked down again, feeling a little weak in his heart, but he still said with an oath: "A few hours ago, a few small people have been following Chuzhi County outside the city to appease the people, and they haven't stopped for a moment, believe it or not, even the uppers of their shoes are covered with mud. ”

"Bastard, in front of the old man, you still dare to lie, it seems that Chuzhi County just dismissed you and didn't punish the crime, it is indeed a little cheaper for you." Gu Kezhi snorted and said, his sleeves flicked with it, and he turned to leave, leaving a sentence: "But although the old man is not talented, he also disdains to worry about villains." ”

was scolded again, Li Mu didn't dare to come out, but muttered inexplicably: "What's wrong with our shoes and pants?" ”

"Brother Muzi." A servant next to him hesitated and said softly, "I seem to know what the reason is." ”

"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Li Mu hurriedly asked.

"The meaning of the two adults should be to let us look behind us." The officer said in frustration.

"What's going on behind you?" Li Mu hurriedly turned his head, and found that the back was similar to the front, and it was also a little muddy.

"People are dirty, not as innocent as we are."
