Chapter 208 The road encounters a mudslide
Xiao Qiyi and his entourage traveled to the boundary of Huaibei, but encountered heavy rain.
There are large trees on both sides, and next to the big trees is a hill.
The drivers ran under the trees to take shelter from the rain.
Mu Zishan: "Everyone stay away from the tree, there is a lot of thunder and lightning in summer, and it is not safe under the tree." ”
Xiao Qi heard the sound of movement on the hill, and immediately jumped out of the carriage and shouted to everyone: "Everyone hurry up and drive the carriage back." ”
Mu Zishan: "What's going on?" ”
"I heard something unusual, and the beasts were running around, hurry back, there may be danger here."
The group had driven the wagon back two or three miles when they saw mud and stones tumbling down the hills.
Ah Mo patted his chest and said, "It's so dangerous, fortunately we ran in time, otherwise we would have been buried in the mud." ”
Everyone was drenched in soup, but they escaped the catastrophe of life and death.
Suddenly, a man on the side ran over, rushed to Xiao Qiyi and his party, and knelt on the ground, "A few masters, help save the people in our village." ”
"We were hunting in the mountains, and a few of us were swept away by the mudslide."
Xiao Qi and Mu Zixi left three people to watch the carriage, and the rest all followed the man to the mountain.
Mu Ziqi looked at the hillside, the area was too big, and there had to be a direction, so he asked, "Where is it?" ”
"I don't know where they are? It happened suddenly, and I ran for my life. ”
"If there is no approximate location, it will be more difficult, and the efficiency of a few of us digging with bare hands is very low."
The man immediately said: "Our village is very close to here, you can help dig here first, and I will go back to the village to find someone now." ”
After the man left, Xiao Qi and Mu Ziqi and his party began to dig mud and rocks.
It didn't take long for Xiao Qi to hear the ground moving again, and immediately warned everyone to run away.
Everyone now believes in Xiao Qi, and when they heard Xiao Qi's warning, they immediately ran away desperately.
After running away, I saw the mudslide toppling down again.
Soon it was calm again.
Half an hour later, the man who had left came with dozens of people, including shovels and other tools.
The crowd immediately began to dig again.
Mu Ziqi saw that the people who used shovels were all rough, and kindly reminded: "Those who use shovels should be careful, so as not to hurt the people buried below." ”
Ah Mo muttered: "What is the injury, it has been buried in the soil for so long, even if it is dug up, it should be more than lucky." ”
After a while, another pair of master and servant came on the road, two of them dressed in robes and riding two old horses.
Hearing that someone was buried at the foot of the mountain, the two immediately joined the rescue team.
After an hour, three people were finally dug up, but they were all dead.
A group of villagers carried the three of them down the mountain.
One of the old men reminded Xiao Qi and the others: "This rain is still falling, and there may be mud and rocks coming down, so it is best for guests to stay away." ”
Xiao Qi: "Old man, is there an inn near here?" ”
"There is a small town about twenty miles south, and there is an inn in the town. ”
"I'm sorry, our village is too poor, so I won't invite a few benefactors to the village."
The boy on the old horse was very enthusiastic, "You might as well go and stay at my house for a few days." ”
Xiao Qi and a few people looked over and saw that this boy who was riding an old horse was fifteen or sixteen years old, although he was dressed plainly, he was holding his head high and was full of spirit.
The little guy beside him said: "Our son is the young owner of the Swordless Villa. ”
"My surname is Gongsun, I live in the nearby Wujian Villa, my father and mother are the most hospitable, you can go back with me to live in the villa first, wait for the rain to stop, and let my father send someone to help you clear the road before leaving."
Ah Mo looked at the young man, and said in his heart that this boy is dressed so ordinarily, and he is riding an old horse, are you sure that the young owner of the villa is?
Xiao Qi discussed with Mu Ziqi, since he couldn't move forward now, and the road was not so fast, it was better to follow Gongsun Gongzi to Wujian Villa for a while.
Xiao Qi and Ah Mo both guessed that the Swordless Villa probably didn't have a sword.
The road is very deserted, but the road is not far, and it takes about ten miles to reach the Swordless Villa.
A very lonely mountain villa, no village in front of it, no shop in the back, it looks deserted from a distance.
When I approached the Swordless Villa, I found that there were swords painted everywhere on the outer wall, and there were no less than thirty swords hanging in the hall.
This villa is full of swords, and the name is actually called Swordless Villa, and the little seven people can't cry or laugh.
Ah Mo blurted out: "Isn't this place called Swordless Villa?" Why are there swords everywhere? ”
Gongsun Shaozhuang: "My father likes swords very much, so he named the villa Swordless Villa." ”
Xiao Qi and a few people followed the master of Gongsun Shaozhuang into the hall of the villa, and saw that the furniture inside was a little old, and it should have been some years.
There were many swords hanging on the wall in the hall, and Ah Mo walked over and wanted to reach out to touch the sword, but Mu Ziqi stopped him, "Ah Mo, it's better not to move without the permission of the master." ”
Xiao Qi and a few people sat in the hall for a while,
The lord of the grandson and the wife of the farmer came out.
The owner of Gongsun Zhuang is stable, and at first glance he is a person who practices martial arts.
But the strange thing is that in a large mountain village, the owner and his wife are dressed very plainly, and there is a patch on the clothes worn by the owner of the grandson.
Xiao Qi and several people hugged their fists towards the owner of Gongsun Village.
Mu Zishan: "Gongsun Zhuang Master, bother, our group was going to Pengzhou, but we encountered a mudslide on the way, but fortunately we met the son of Guizhuang." ”
Gongsun Shaozhuang Master: "Dad, I invite a few of them to come to Wujian Villa for a while." ”
Gongsun Zhuang owner: "A few people can stay, Steward Li, you can make good arrangements to make the guests more comfortable." ”
Steward Li answered.
Xiao Qisan hugged his fist at the owner of Gongsun Zhuang again: "Thank you for your kindness." ”
In the evening, the owner of Gongsun Zhuang invited Xiaoqi and a few people to eat together, and there were some green vegetables and tofu on the table, and they drank boiled water.
Gongsun Zhuang Owner: "Everyone, the hospitality is not good. ”
Mu Ziqi said with a smile: "I heard that many people who pay attention to health care eat green vegetables and tofu. ”
Although the dishes were simple, they were still swept away by Xiao Qiyi, who had a large amount of food.
Early the next morning, Xiao Qi woke up and heard a noisy sound outside.
She packed up and looked outside, smiling.
The young master of Gongsun was practicing with five or six family members.
The owner of Gongsun Shaozhuang is holding a stick in his hand, dancing vigorously.
Everywhere the stick touched, before it could be touched, the family pretended to be beaten and fell to the ground.
The family members are nimble, and only a few of them are actually touched by sticks, and it seems that they are used to dodging movements.
Soon Mu Zichen and Ah Mo also came over.
Ah Mo's eyes widened: "This is too exaggerated, isn't this a lie?" The young owner of Gongsun will definitely think that he has superb martial arts and can sweep so many families. ”
Mu Ziqi expressed a different opinion, "I think they may be singing, my grandmother often invites the troupe to sing at home, and they are all such exaggerated techniques when singing and fighting." ”
