Since Yangzhou transferred grain to the waterway, the feeling of being secretly followed disappeared, but I didn't expect that not long after getting off the boat, the feeling of snooping hit my heart again.

Liang Yan wasn't sure if the people this time belonged to the same group of people as the previous assassination, he could only feel that this group of people was menacing, and the road behind him might not be easy!

And he told them to be on guard, and then he turned on his horse and rode ahead of him.

This place is only 100 miles away from Ningshuo, but because of the lofty mountains on both sides, the water of the Cangjiang River is firmly limited to the original riverbed, although it is rainy for several days, there is no danger along the way.

Lishan is the shortest way to Ningshuo, as its name suggests, the mountains are full of pear trees, I thought that the pear blossoms were falling at this time, but the flowers here are as lush as snow.

The breeze blows, and the sky is full of snow-white petals, as if you have strayed into the realm of flying snow.

The little liar loves pear blossoms the most, and when he sees this sea of pear blossoms, he likes it very much!

Thinking of the aftermath, the depression in Liang Yan's heart dissipated a lot, and when he rode a horse to explore the road, his movements were much lighter.

The terrain of Lishan is steep, and the hills and holes are staggered, and there is a danger of falling from the horse if you are not careful.

Liang Yan was concerned about Yu Yin, so he didn't pay ten out of ten attention to the road. A man suddenly rushed out of front of him, hurriedly tightened the reins in order to avoid it, and almost fell into the cliff on the right side of the hillside.

After stopping the horse, he turned his head and looked coldly at the visitor, who turned out to be a middle-aged man with ragged clothes and yellow muscles.

"Childe, save us, please save us!" The middle-aged man kept kowtowing and crying miserably.

Liang Yan's brows furrowed together, and the cold light in his eyes turned into doubt.

Hearing the movement, Chu Li caught up curiously, riding around the middle-aged man on a tall horse, giving the middle-aged man great oppression in terms of momentum.

"Where are you from, and why are you blocking our way? My son is on an important business, and he is in a hurry, if you delay it, can you afford to take responsibility! ”

The middle-aged man raised his head in fear, and looked at Liang Yan who looked like a pine bamboo and a righteous person on the side for help.

"Childe, I know that you are the Jingguan sent by Yundu to provide disaster relief, we have fled from Yongxing City, please help us!"

Liang Yan's eyes froze, and he cautiously looked at the person in front of him.

Although he was worried about the disaster, he was not a blind person, although it was close to Ningshuo from Lishan, because of the rugged mountain road and steep terrain, ordinary people were not willing to take this road at all.

What's more, they kept a low profile all the way, how did the displaced people who rushed out halfway know their identities?

"Do you know who we are?" Liang Yan frowned and stared at the middle-aged man cautiously, feeling more oppressive.

Chu Li snorted coldly and took over the conversation, looking at the people on the ground condescendingly.

"How do you know we're disaster relief? Say, do you have ulterior motives? ”

The middle-aged man kowtowed vigorously, and blood oozed slightly from under the dirt covering his forehead.

"We were told that there would be a relief officer passing through this place today, and that we would block your way so that you could settle us.

Childe, no, official, please, save us! We fled from Woody City, and we had no food to eat, hungry and cold along the way.

Many of the people who escaped together died on the road, we, we can't hold on! ”

"Is it so miserable?" Chu Li put away his disdain, and subconsciously glanced in Ning Shuo's direction a few times, and sympathy and confusion swelled in his heart.

After Ma Yuanzheng asked the team to stop, he walked up with the weapon on his waist, and after knowing the reason, he looked sharply at the people on the ground.

"I'm afraid there's a deception in this!"

Liang Yan raised his hand to restrain his words, and asked the middle-aged man politely and detachedly: "Uncle, you said that you are from Yongxing City, so do you know what happened to Ning Shuo?" ”

After speaking, he whispered a few words to Ma Yuanzheng, and asked him to send a few soldiers to check the gathering place mentioned by the middle-aged man, and then quietly listened to the middle-aged man's story.

The middle-aged man's name is Liu Xingmin, who was originally a private school teacher in Yongxing City, and when the flood occurred, he was taking his wife home to save his relatives, and his hometown was on higher ground, so he escaped, but all the houses and belongings in the city were gone.

I wanted to hide in my hometown, but the second flood was menacing and flooded my hometown. He had no choice but to leave his hometown with his wife and flee all the way to Yundu to see if he could find a way to make ends meet.

On the way, we met many displaced people, and everyone supported each other, and gradually formed an organization. Because of his knowledge, he was recommended to be the leader of the outcasts.

"Yongxing is okay, the disaster is not particularly serious, but Ningshuo is different, the terrain is too flat, and the whole city is directly flooded. Although I did not pass through the city, I looked at the mountain from afar, and I felt sad in my heart. ”

"What's wrong?" Chu Li asked with interest.

Liu Xingmin's eyes were sad, and he sighed again and again, dressed in tatters but with the air of a literati.

“…… Suddenly, after the number of people was finished, there was no one in the middle of the night. The southeast is full of floating water, and several bare burials are torrential. After the turtle went, he did not return, and he watched the waves hit the stone head. ”

What kind of sour poems are chanted at this time, it's really annoying!

Chu Li doesn't like these literati who like to show off, and what can be explained in one sentence is to say some condescending words, but except for the county lord, that is the real literary style!

For Liu Xingmin, who was old and in a difficult situation, he didn't forget to show off, he didn't have a good temper, so he went straight up.

"What a mess, you can't talk well!"

Liang Yan glanced at Chu Li sternly, Liu Xingmin felt that he had been disgraced, he angrily shook off his muddy sleeves, stood with his back to Chu Li, and kept snorting coldly in his nose.

The people sent by Ma Yuanzheng ran back, and returned to the team after reporting the situation in a low voice.

Liang Yan got the exact news and was about to speak, but Chu Li came over with a gleam in his eyes.

"How's that, is there any fraud? Is that guy lying to us? ”

Liang Yan lowered his eyes and shook his head, and replied softly: "There is indeed a group of homeless people not far to the west. ”

Liu Xingmin snorted coldly when he heard this, put his hands behind his back, and said loudly: "I, Liu Xingmin, have been upright all my life, and I have never done anything unscrupulous. I see that you are dressed in fine clothes, acting indulgently, and having no respect for your elders, I am afraid that you are gilded into the disaster relief team by the family! ”

"Hey, you old man, don't I dare beat you?"

Chu Li rolled up his sleeves and was about to smash it, but Liu Xingmin stiffened his neck and did not flinch.

"That's it! It's important to pacify the victims, and we still have to hurry! ”

Liang Yan wrinkled his eyebrows and snorted coldly, and the two people who were blushing and thick-necked turned into silent confrontation.

"We first brought the victims out, and then wrote to the Bencheng Taishou and asked him to resettle them."

Liu Xingmin stared at Chu Li with hostility, and said loudly: "As long as I have the officials to come with me, the son-in-law who doesn't know the grains and doesn't understand the hardships will be spared!" ”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Liang Yan immediately ordered: "Ma Yuanzheng is taking a small team of people and me to go, Chu Li you stay, take care of the silver taels and grain." ”

Chu Li turned over and got on his horse, and went back to the army without looking back.
