Chapter 41: Successful Departure
The leader of the mountain bandits thought about it, and finally decided to agree to Su Rongrong's conditions, after all, the advantages of this matter outweigh the disadvantages for him, in case this woman can really find a water source, it will be a great thing for the cottage.
Now it is too affected by the drought, cooking with water in the cottage is a problem, drinking water is planned, if there is no water source, I am afraid it will not last long.
"I believe your words for the time being, if you find a water source, I will let you go, if you can't find it, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people!" The bandit leader's tone was full of menace.
If others heard it, they might be scared, but Su Rongrong didn't, she was very confident in finding a water source, "There is another thing, my husband is injured, I need you to help me take care of him." ”
The leader of the mountain bandits nodded, agreed, and immediately ordered Wen Gong to be carried to the house, where he was treated well, and his luggage was also moved into the room.
Everything was developing in the direction that Su Rongrong expected, she asked the leader of the mountain bandits to rest for a while, and the other party readily agreed, but sent two subordinates to watch her all the time.
said that it was rest, but in fact, it was just to see how Wen Gong was doing now, after all, he couldn't delay going to the county seat. As soon as she entered the room, she walked to the bed to check on Wen Gong's condition.
Wen Gong is now in a coma due to blood loss, and the wound has been simply covered with herbs, and there are special people watching from the side, so Su Rongrong is relieved.
"Now we can go find water." The leader of the mountain bandits was also very anxious, and came directly to urge Su Rongrong, Su Rongrong didn't want to delay the time to go to the county seat, and began to perceive the water source.
The people sent by the leader of the mountain bandits also followed Su Rongrong step by step, although Su Rongrong felt unaccustomed, but he didn't say anything, just kept wandering around the cottage, perceiving the water source nearby.
This behavior aroused the curiosity of the mountain bandits in the cottage, and they heard that this woman could find a water source, so they also came to see the excitement. But all they saw was the woman wandering around, and nothing else was there.
So some people began to mumble quietly, feeling that their boss had been deceived. Su Rongrong was not affected by these people, and felt all this by himself.
"Is there a hill around here?" Su Rongrong finally spoke, and the mountain bandit behind him immediately replied that there was a small hill behind the cottage.
She had just sensed that there was a water source nearby, but it was not in this cottage, but on a small hill. Combined with the answer of the mountain bandit just now, it should be the hill behind the cottage.
"I need you guys to take the guys and follow me to that mountain." Su Rongrong said to the two mountain bandits behind him. The two mountain bandits had been ordered by the boss to fully cooperate with the woman, and now that they had the words, they hurriedly beckoned the brothers to take the guys over.
When I arrived at the place, I was a little dumbfounded, this mountain is a grassless place, how can there be a water source? But Su Rongrong was very determined, pointed to a place on the top of the mountain, and asked them to dig a well towards this place.
"Don't lie to us, birds don't in this place, there isn't even a single weed, it's weird to have water." Some of the mountain bandits questioned Su Rongrong's decision.
Su Rongrong glared, "I have a life and death relationship with your boss, if there is no water source, I will let you dispose of it, you just dig it." ”
These words made these mountain bandits no longer question Su Rongrong, but dug down according to her statement, anyway, she was responsible for the accident, and it had nothing to do with herself.
The bandits moved quickly, and they were almost dug in about an hour, but they never saw the water source, so they were a little anxious. It's just that Su Rongrong has always insisted that there is a water source, and his own boss didn't say anything, so they continued to dig.
Just when everyone thought there would be no water source, a stream of water appeared at the bottom of the well, "There is water!" The people at the bottom of the well cried, and the people on the ground were amazed.
At this time, their attitude towards Su Rongrong changed greatly.
"Thank you, Madame, for taking us to the water!" The leader of the mountain bandits was full of gratitude to Su Rongrong at this time. Now that finding a water source is equivalent to saving the lives of their entire cottage, how can you not be grateful.
"It's a small thing, you can just let us go, after all, the county master can't be delayed." Su Rongrong hung on the county side, and went to play for fear that the county lord would blame.
The leader of the mountain bandits fulfilled his promise to release her and Wen Gong, put the carriage and luggage back to their original state, and secretly stuffed them with some silver coins and herbs.
At this time, Wen Gong was almost resting and could barely walk, so the two continued to rush to the county seat. On the rest of the way, instead of encountering mountain bandits, I met some refugees.
The famine caused by the drought has devastated families who should have been happy, and those who survived either went to Liangshan to die in the grass or wandered all the way to become refugees.
Without food and money, these refugees could easily die somewhere. Su Rongrong couldn't stand this the most, she looked at the refugees and felt sad and panicked, so every time she saw the refugees, she couldn't help but step forward to help, even if it was to give them a little food.
"You're kind-hearted, and you've helped a lot of people along the way." Wen Gong joked to Su Rongrong, this woman is kind-hearted and smart, how could there be those rumors before, he couldn't figure it out.
"After all, I'm much luckier than them, at least there is no shortage of food and clothing, so I can help a little." Su Rongrong really can't see these sad things.
was chatting, and suddenly saw someone lying on the side of the road, Su Rongrong asked Wen Gong to stop the car, ready to see if this person was dead or alive.
"This man is still alive, you can help me get some water and food." She spoke to Wen Gong.
The two cooperated to put food and water into the man's mouth, and after waiting for a while, the man slowly opened his eyes and coughed a few times. Su Rongrong was very surprised, "Are you awake?" You can keep this food, and there will be villages going forward, so make a job for yourself and live well. ”
The man was hysterical for a while before realizing his current situation, and hurriedly stood up to thank the two of them, "You are such a good person, I thought I would die here today, but I didn't expect to be alive." ”
"Everyone in my family starved to death, and your life was saved by you, if you don't dislike it, I will follow you in the future." The man knelt on the ground and bowed three times and nine times, thanking Su Rongrong for his kindness.
Hearing this, Su Rongrong was a little unbearable, looked at Wen Gong, the other party nodded and signaled that she could stay, and then she replied to the man, "If you are willing, follow us, although you will not be rich and expensive, at least you will have something to eat." ”
When the man heard this, he was overjoyed, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Rongrong, thanking her for giving him a place to live and giving him hope to live again.
