Chapter 115: Crossing the River
After a night of fleeing, until the horses pulling the cart refused to take any further steps, Luo An'an jumped out of the carriage and tied the horse to the trunk of a tree by the side of the road.
The horses can't run, and the people who chase them probably can't run either, right?
"Abu, you're on guard!" Luo An'an greeted Abu and climbed back into the carriage.
When she fled with Sui Yang last night, this guy was slapped by someone, and she was weak to speak, she fled in a carriage this night, and she didn't pay attention to him, and she didn't know if he was seriously injured.
When he opened the curtain, he saw Sui Yang lying in the carriage, his face was slightly pale, and he was motionless.
Could this be, he died of his injuries, right?
Thinking like this, Luo An'an slowly moved to Sui Yang's side, gently pushed him, and when he didn't react, he stretched out his finger to probe his snort.
Before she could reach her breath, his hand was suddenly grasped by him, and then she pulled it violently, and she fell on top of him.
I saw a smile on his pale face, "The girl is so embraced, isn't she looking at it?" ”
"I've got a crush on your sister!" Luo An'an glared at him viciously, struggling to get up, but he reached out and hugged her waist and didn't let her get up.
Luo An'an was annoyed, and regardless of whether he was seriously injured or not, he punched him in the chest.
Sui Yang was in pain, so he let go.
Luo An'an sat up, his face full of displeasure, "I saved you several times, and that's how you repay me?" The Prodigal Son! With that, he glared at him and went out of the carriage.
She is still worried that he is seriously injured, it is really idle!
Seeing her leave like this, Sui Yang didn't know what to do for a while.
He admits that his prank is a bit tentative, and if she doesn't struggle, or if she shows shyness, he thinks, whether she is a wife or not, he just accepts it!
Anyway, she said that her husband was in Jiangnan, and the plague in Jiangnan had killed I don't know how many people had died, maybe her husband was dead, and she was now a little widow!
No, she would be so angry, but his actions were indeed light, and it was normal for her to be angry.
Thinking about it, he got out of the carriage with him.
At this moment, Luo An'an was sitting under the tree resting, and when he saw Sui Yang getting out of the carriage, he just glared at him coldly and didn't say a word.
Sui Yang moved to Luo An'an's side with a little embarrassment, and then coughed lightly, "That...... Fang Cai is overstepping the ......"
"Give money!" Luo Anan didn't look at him, and stretched out his hand to ask for money, which made Sui Yang stunned, "What? ”
"You have eaten me for the past few days, and I also paid for the silver of the guest house last night, and I have saved you so many times, all of which I have to give for the silver!" As he spoke, his little hand shook at Sui Yang again, "Hurry up, give money!" ”
Sui raised his eyebrows and sank, "I don't have enough silver on my lower body." As he spoke, he took off a jade pendant from his waist, "Only this jade pendant." ”
Luo An'an took the jade pendant, pursed her lips in disgust, and listened to Sui Yang, "With this jade pendant, the girl can ask to do anything in the future." ”
"Cut." Luo An'an was even more disdainful, "You take care of your own life first!" As he spoke, he stuffed the jade pendant into his waist.
Originally, she thought that saving Sui Yang's life was a good thing.
But now she found out that Sui Yang was so dissolute, saving such a person, she was unwilling in her heart, and she had to ask for money to balance!
Fortunately, we will be in Jiangnan in a few days.
She will be able to see Baili Mochen soon.
The rest of the day was still peaceful, and there were no more assassinations, and I don't know if it was because the tiger-wolf dispute that day was too fierce, and both sides were greatly injured.
In short, Luo An'an arrived in Jiangnan without danger.
Jiangnan Jiangnan is bounded by the Lingjiang River, as long as the Lingjiang River is crossed, it is the Jiangnan that was swallowed up by floods and the plague spread.
The Lingjiang River is not too wide, and you can see the opposite bank at a glance when you stand on the riverside.
It's just that the river is turbulent and the dark tide is turbulent, if you don't live by the river all the year round and are familiar with the water, you generally don't dare to cross the shore easily.
Now, there is a plague in Jiangnan again, and no one dares to ferry it.
Luo Anan stood by the river, looking at the other side, but there was nothing he could do.
Along the way, she was not afraid of sleeping in the wilderness, not afraid of being assassinated by assassins, but she didn't expect to arrive at Lingjiang, she could only watch.
"Girl, you go, no one dares to cross the river now." There is an old man on the riverside who is collecting the net, "A few days ago, some people on the other side of the river who fled the famine could not find a boat to cross the river, and they wanted to swim over, but they were washed away by the river before they swam out of ten zhang, this person is gone, and the river water is dirty, and now no one dares to ask for the fish in the Lingjiang River!" ”
At the end of the words, it was full of helplessness.
Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to eat the water.
The people who live by the Lingjiang River naturally rely on this river to earn a living.
If there is no natural disaster and plague in the south of the Yangtze River, the people along the river will naturally live a prosperous life.
But now, both livelihoods have been cut off.
Luo An'an looked at the old man, the old man has a net, and naturally he also has a boat.
"Uncle, can you cross the river with me?" Luo An'an asked tentatively, and took out all his silver taels as he asked, "I'll give you all the silver, and the carriage over there, please, cross the river with me!" ”
Hearing this, the old man's action of closing the net paused slightly, glanced at the carriage, and then looked at Luo An'an and Sui Yang, and then said, "This silver, if you have a life to earn and have a life to spend, you husband and wife are young, why can't you think about going to the other side?" ”
Husband and wife?
Sui raised his eyebrows, but listened to Luo An'an's anxious defense, "Uncle, you misunderstood, I am just fellow travelers with him, my husband is on the other side, and I am going to find him on this trip." ”
The old man nodded in understanding, "I see, but the plague on the other side is raging......"
Before the old man finished speaking, he was interrupted by Luo An'an, "Uncle, you don't have to worry, you just need to send me over, you don't have to go ashore, and you don't have to have any contact with the people on the shore, my fellow traveler will do light work, you just need to get a little closer to the shore, and he can take me over." ”
Hearing this, the old man couldn't help but look at Sui Yang, "Really? ”
Before Sui Yang could answer, Luo Anan stomped on him very eagerly, which made Sui Yang suddenly squeeze his eyebrows in pain, and nodded at the old man, "Yes, yes, there is light work." ”
I don't have the ability to cross the Lingjiang River, but it is not a problem to jump from a position close to the shore to the other side.
The old man thought about it again, looked at the carriage, and then at the silver in Luo An'an's hand.
These silver and the carriage are enough for his family's old snacks for several years, and if he doesn't dock, he won't be infected with the plague, this is a fateful trade that has a destiny to earn and a destiny to spend, well, it has been done!
So he nodded, "Okay, I can cross the river for you, but I have to give me this money first." ”
"No problem!" Someone agreed to take her across the river, Luo An'an was naturally very happy, and immediately handed over all the money and silver to the old man.
The old man carefully put away the money and silver, and then beckoned Luo An'an and Sui Yang to get on the boat.
The river is indeed turbulent, but fortunately, the old man crosses people to fish in this Lingjiang River all the year round, and the technology is excellent, so that this small boat is still stable in this turbulent river.
And Abu, who has always been brave, got on the boat, and his listless appearance seemed to vomit a boat at any moment.
Luo An'an stroked Abu's head in distress as she looked at the other side of the river that was getting closer and closer.
About a few hundred meters from the shore, the old man stopped the boat, "Two, the old man can only lead here, get closer, I'm afraid those people on the shore will pounce." ”
Luo An'an nodded, "Then let's get here." Speaking of this, he looked at Sui Yang.
Sui Yang nodded clearly, picked up Abu with one hand, and put the other hand around Luo An'an's waist, and jumped up with a light touch.
It was this gentle leap that the two of them and the dog successfully reached the other side.
Everyone on the shore was disappointed when they saw a ship approaching, but in the end they didn't dock, and Luo An'an stood firm and looked around.
There is no sign of the flood here, but the people around are all ragged and sick.
Thinking of this, Luo An'an squatted down and tore off the hem of his clothes to make a temporary mask, in order to easily resist some germs.
Seeing this, Sui Yang also learned to tear off the hem of his clothes and cover his mouth and nose.
Now that I'm in Jiangnan, I just need to find out where Baili Mochen's disaster relief team is stationed!
But before Luo An'an could ask, he heard a noise in the distance.
I saw a group of officers and soldiers pushing the crowd in the distance, driving all the people who were unable to sit on the side of the road in one direction.
And those officers and soldiers covered their mouths and noses with white handkerchiefs, wore scarves and gloves, as if they were exposed, except for the pair of eyes, the rest were tightly wrapped, for fear of being infected.
"I'm afraid I'm going to go to a place and burn it." On the side, Sui Yang spoke, which made Luo An'an frightened.
A few days ago, I heard about the government's method of dealing with the plague in the city, but she didn't expect to see it with her own eyes now!
Those people, old and young, although they are all sick, they are still alive!
As if they knew that their lives were short, the people were pushed and shoved, and because they were infected with the disease, they were powerless to resist, and they could only cry, even the infant child let out a weak throat.
Luo An'an couldn't bear it again, and rushed up to stop the officers and soldiers from pushing and shoving, "What are you going to do!" They're all alive! Are you going to murder? ”
But that group of officers and soldiers who were five big and three rough could not be stopped by Luo An'an alone, and immediately pushed Luo An'an to the ground, "Where did this come from!" Pull it over and burn it! ”
As soon as the order was given, two officers and soldiers forcibly erected Luo An'an, Sui Yang saw this and was about to step forward to stop it, but he heard a voice in the distance, "Stop!" ”
The voice was thick and powerful, revealing the momentum that no one dared to disobey.
It's him......
Seeing the person coming, Luo An'an's eyes turned red instantly, as if a breath was blocked in her throat, so that she could call out her voice for a long time, "Ah no! ”
Baili Mochen was stunned for a moment, and he didn't recognize the woman who was being held by two officers and soldiers in the confusion, and when he heard her call, he reacted in surprise, the woman who was disheveled and embarrassed because of resistance was actually his little wife!
