Chapter 128: Frequent Accidents
The carriage ran very fast, from the fourth watch to the dawn, in less than two hours, it had already run out of the road for more than 200 miles. At this time, Wei Wei's heart was a little more steady.
Wei Wei and Su Qin had already decided: Qin Junying woke up in the morning, even if he knew that they had fled at the first time, he would first judge the direction of their escape;
When you understand the direction, you must continue to judge the path you are taking.
By the time Ying Si was sure that Wei Wei had escaped and Wei Wei and the others had reached the bank of the Yellow River, he would be beyond the reach of the whip at that time.
Wei Wei thought of his children at this time, felt sorry for them after a night of traveling, and thought that they should get off the car for convenience. He then proposed to Su Qin that he wanted to take a rest and let the horses relieve their fatigue by the way.
Su Qin was also pondering whether to adjust it a little, how could he not feel sorry for Ying Yi, with her princess, where did she live such a life in exile.
The carriage stopped, and Wei Wei got out of the carriage. Zhang Yi was driving the third carriage, and when he saw the two cars in front of him stop, he also understood that the people in front of him were going to be sharp, so he also stopped the car. Wei Wei walked to Wei Jia's sister and brother's car and told his children to rest.
The exiles jumped out of their cars and moved their muscles, and some of them walked into the woods by the roadside.
Su Qin personally escorted Ying Yi to rest and took care of her in every way, although Ying Yi was a little unbearable, but with her lover by her side, it was rare for Su Qin to take care of her carefully, and she had long forgotten her hard work.
In order to avoid the female dependents, Ning Jun and Pang Hui deliberately walked deeper into the woods, where it was convenient. Ning Jun finished first, and saw that Pang Hui was there and hadn't finished yet, so he waited for him a while.
Pang Hui was a little embarrassed, so he shouted for Ning Jun to go back and rest first, and rush back as soon as he was done.
After everyone finished their hands, they all returned to the carriage. Only Pang Hui did not return, and when everyone was already in place, he came out of the woods, Ning Jun motioned for him to get into the car, and Pang Hui slowly sat in the driver's position.
When everyone was about to set off, Pang Hui shouted again and said, "Oh, no, when it was convenient for me just now, I dropped a piece of ancestral jade pendant in the woods, what should I do?" ”
Wei Wei, who was in the car in front of him, heard Pang Hui's shout and thought: It's really unreasonable not to let him go back to Baoyu, because it is an ancestral treasure, and he won't leave it alone because he is in a hurry.
So he asked Su Qin to wait a little longer, and he leaned out and shouted back, asking Pang Hui to go to the woods to find it.
When Pang Hui heard this, his heart was overjoyed, and he immediately jumped out of the carriage and ran towards the woods to find the ancestral treasure. Three carriages were waiting for Pang Hui in the same place.
But everyone waited a lot of effort, Pang Hui still did not appear from the woods, Ning Jun was anxious, and the others were also anxious. Even the little girl Gao Yan peeked out into the woods from the curtain of the car.
After more than half an hour, Ning Jun saw that Pang Hui still hadn't returned, and his heart was furious, so he jumped out of the carriage and went to the woods to find Pang Hui in person. At this time, he saw Pang Hui returning, he held a jade pendant in his hand, and said loudly: "The grass is too deep, it is really difficult to find, but I finally found it." ”
Ning Jun said dissatisfiedly: "Your jade pendant is important, or everyone's life is important, if you can't find it, don't look for it, why delay everyone's time!" ”
Pang Hui was also angry, and he sneered: "My ancestral treasure will be lost casually, what if you lose your own life!" ”
Ning Jun pointed at Pang Hui and had the intention to scold a few more words, but he was worried about delaying the time, so he finally held back his words, turned around and jumped into the carriage. Pang Hui also got into the car in a huff and sat side by side with Ning Jun, the two had an awkward quarrel, and there was no gossip along the way.
Su Qin saw that Pang Hui had returned and sat down, and immediately urged the horses to run forward. The group rested twice in the middle, and Pang Hui fell to the bottom in the name of convenience, Wei Wei asked him about the situation, and Pang Hui covered his stomach and said that he had diarrhea. Wei Wei hurriedly found some antidiarrheal Chinese herbs for him to chew and take, but Pang Hui still couldn't stop.
Su Qin and the others delayed some efforts on the road, and after seven or eight hours of running, in the late afternoon, they ran more than 400 miles and came to Xiayang.
The carriage came to the bank of the Yellow River and found that there were no idle boats at the ferry. Su Qin hurriedly asked everyone to go to the people on the bank of the river to find the boat.
The people looking for the boat were divided into three groups, the first group was Su Qin and Zhang Yi, the second group was Ning Jun and Pang Hui, and the third group was Su Dai and Gao Yan. Because of Wei Wei's advanced age, although he himself had to actively look for a boat, Su Qin persuaded him to stay at the ferry and accompany his children and Princess Yingyi.
Of course, Ying Yi also wanted to go with Su Qin, but Su Qin saw that she was still wearing a deep coat, with wide sleeves and a swaying hem, which was very inconvenient, so she stayed where she was and waited.
Su Qin and Zhang Yi spread their legs and went door to door along the riverbank to ask if there was a boat to help with the ferry. If you can help, double the price. Unfortunately, it was already afternoon at this time, and most of the boats' fishing boats had already gone out to fish, where did they get so many idle boats.
Su Qin and Zhang Yi had visited many homes, but they did not find any usable fishing boats. The two of them traveled for more than ten miles, but unexpectedly found another ferry, which was obviously not wider than the one just now, but there was a large ferry boat parked there.
Su Qin was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask, the boatman was sleeping on the ferry. Su Qin cautiously woke up the boatman, explained to the boatman his willingness to hire the ship, and promised the boatman ten gold as a reward. When the boatman heard about it, he thought the price was very generous, so he agreed.
Su Qin was in trouble again at this time, he was faced with two choices, one was to rush back to the original ferry with Zhang Yi and drive the carriage to this small ferry, and the other was to row directly down the river to the big ferry by himself and Zhang Yi by boat.
Su Qin and Zhang Yi discussed it for a while, thinking that the second option was more time-saving, so they asked the boatman, and the boatman also felt that the second option was better. So Su Qin and Zhang Yi boarded the ferry, and the boatman rocked the oar, followed the river, and released the boat to the big ferry.
After about a quarter of an hour, the ferry approached the big crossing. After docking, Su Qin and Zhang Yi instructed the boatman to wait at the ferry and go ashore to find someone. After they landed on the shore, they found that outside the ferry, Ning Jun, Su Dai and Gao Yan were anxiously looking around, but there was no trace of Wei Wei and the others.
Su Qin hurriedly asked them what had happened, and the three of them were also like falling into a five-mile fog, not understanding what was going on. Ask them about the situation of finding a boat again, and what they encountered was the same as Su Qin, there were no idle boats at all, and there were a few boats that were idle at home, but they were dilapidated and small, and they could not be used at all.
Su Qin vaguely felt in his heart that a huge crisis was coming.
