Qin Miaomiao lay under the carriage and waited, it was really a death wait, there was no place to turn around under the carriage, she could only lie straight inside, like a corpse.
It was easy to stay up until the middle of the night, and there was no movement around, Qin Miaomiao couldn't help but curse: "This coachman didn't sleep to death and forgot about himself." ”
As soon as she scolded the carriage, there was the sound of Suosuo's footsteps, and she really scolded the coachman, along with his daughter-in-law.
The two looked around sneakily, quietly lifted the tarpaulin covering the car, and the coachman knocked on the wooden board under the car: "Eh, are you sleeping?" ”
Qin Miaomiao scolded angrily in her heart: "I slept with your uncle, I've been hungry for four days, who the hell can still sleep!" ”
A soft whimper was a response.
The coachman winked at his daughter-in-law, and the two of them worked together to pull out the wooden box where Qin Miaomiao was lying from under the car as if pulling a drawer.
Qin Miaomiao suddenly felt a cold wind blowing, and she saw the light of day again.
The space was a little bigger, she wanted to turn over and move, but the left half of her body had been pressed underneath, and she had lost her intuition, and the whole person froze, and she didn't turn at all when she turned around, so much so that she was in pain.
When the coachman saw her struggling and remembered, he immediately said to her daughter-in-law: "Hold it down, don't let her get up!" ”
His daughter-in-law has been unloading with the car all the year round, and her two hands are as powerful as iron tongs, and she hurts when she pinches Qin Miaomiao's shoulders.
Qin Miaomiao wanted to explain, she didn't want to escape, at least she didn't want to escape now, her legs were like wooden sticks, and if she was asked to run now, she couldn't run.
The coachman looked around cautiously again, and whispered to Qin Miaomiao: "Don't play tricks, or I'll kill you."
Qin Miaomiao nodded effortlessly, and whimpered a few times to indicate that she agreed.
The coachman's daughter-in-law saw that Qin Miaomiao did not move or struggle, and she relaxed a little according to her strength, and she spoke politely: "Girl, we are also helping people, so don't be a demon, let us be embarrassed, I'll take out the cloth on your mouth and feed you something to eat, don't shout!" ”
Qin Miaomiao nodded again, now she can't do anything else except nod.
The coachman's daughter-in-law ripped off the cloth on Qin Miaomiao's mouth, Qin Miaomiao suddenly felt that her breathing was smooth, she exhaled heavily, her mouth couldn't be closed for half a day, this cloth was blocked in her mouth for four days, Qin Miaomiao's jaw may have been dislocated, and after working hard for a long time, she still couldn't close it, so she whispered, because her jaw was dislocated, and her words were slurred: "I have a dislocated jaw, I can't close my mouth, untie my hand and connect it myself!" ”
Because the voice was small and the speech was slurred, Qin Miaomiao said it four or five times in a row before the coachman and his daughter-in-law understood, the two looked at each other and hesitated for a while, but the coachman was still not at ease and was afraid that she would play tricks: "Don't play tricks!" Otherwise, I'll go with a knife! After saying that, he really went to the front of the car and pulled out a long knife, which he usually used for self-defense when delivering goods. Now it's used to scare Qin Miaomiao.
Qin Miaomiao nodded again and again: "Don't worry, I don't dare, I'll pick it up, and you will tie it up to me again!" ”
The coachman stood aside with a knife, and her daughter-in-law untied the rope in her hand for Qin Miaomiao.
Shaking off his hands that had long been numb, it took a long time for his hands to regain consciousness.
The coachman who was waiting on the side urged: "Hurry up! ”
Qin Miaomiao dragged her chin, ruthlessly, and supported her hand upwards to reconnect her chin.
After receiving her chin, Qin Miaomiao cooperated and stretched out her hand and asked the coachman's daughter-in-law to tie her back on, the reason why she reached out herself was to let them tie their hands to the front.
The coachman's daughter-in-law didn't notice anything wrong, and helped her hands to be strong in three or two clicks.
Qin Miaomiao thought that they would bring two steamed buns for themselves to eat, but they only brought a slappy coarse dough cake and a bowl of cold water. They are so picky, they can get a hundred taels of silver for this trip, and they will eat this for themselves.
I don't know how long the cake has been placed, I take a bite and drop half of the slag, and when I swallow it, my throat hurts, and the cold water in the cold winter Layue smacks my teeth, and my stomach is cold in one bite, forcing Qin Miaomiao to shiver a lot.
After eating the coarse dough cake, Qin Miaomiao asked again: "Let me go to the thatched house, my stomach hurts." ”
This time they didn't say much, the coachman nodded, his daughter-in-law untied the rope on Qin Miaomiao's feet, pulled her out of the wooden box, as soon as her feet touched the ground, Qin Miaomiao's knees were weak, and she knelt straight on the ground, her two legs were like prosthetics, and she didn't obey the call at all.
After slowing down for a long time, he was able to limp around, and the coachman's daughter-in-law dragged the rope of Qin Miaomiao's hand with one hand, and the long knife that the coachman was holding just now in the other, in case Qin Miaomiao was disobedient and escaped.
After eating, drinking, and lazing, Qin Miaomiao was stuffed back into the wooden box and put it back under the car, because Qin Miaomiao was very obedient and cooperative, probably because the coachman and his daughter-in-law were in a hurry, afraid of being discovered, and in a hurry, they didn't tie Qin Miaomiao's feet. This was a pleasant surprise for Qin Miaomiao, which saved her a lot of tongue.
Qin Miaomiao shivered in the cold in the car, although she hid at the bottom of the car, and was covered tightly by the tarpaulin, but after all, this was a harsh winter, and Qin Miaomiao's teeth were chattering in the second half of the night, she was stunned by the drug a few nights ago, so she didn't know about the cold, but she was awake now, and the cold water cake she ate was cold inside and out.
Just when Qin Miaomiao felt that she was going to freeze to death in the car, the carriage shook for a while, and the coachman woke up early in the morning to put the carriage on and prepare to set off.
Bumpy and shaking all the way, Qin Miaomiao felt that her head hurt so much that she was about to crack, and she felt that her consciousness was becoming more and more chaotic, knowing that she was infected with wind and cold, and had a high fever.
Qin Miaomiao was dizzy in the car again, and she didn't have the strength to think of a way to escape, and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to run far at this time.
The only thing she is looking forward to now is that Lingnan City is farther away, so that she can think of a way to escape on the way.
The high fever is getting worse and worse, Qin Miaomiao is so trembling that she can't stop, even if she doesn't study medicine, this basic common thing is there, I'm afraid that if she burns like this, she will have convulsions and faint.
I knocked on the board of the car with my hand, but the carriage was moving, and the delivery couple were in front, no one paid attention to her call for help, or it could be said that they noticed it but ignored it, there were basically no people on the official road in the wild, even if Qin Miaomiao opened her throat and shouted at them, she was not afraid.
Qin Miaomiao was very glad that she was able to pull them to stop and rest, and as soon as the carriage heard this, she began to use her hands and feet at the same time, kicking and kicking the board.
Finally annoyed the coachman, and pulled out the wooden box of the car while scolding.
"What the fuck are you doing, looking for death!" Holding the whip and scolding. Qin Miaomiao's illness was serious, and under the control of others, she automatically blocked the coachman's words, and turned to look up at the coachman and his daughter-in-law whimpered at her.
There was no one on this official road, and she was not afraid of Qin Miaomiao's shouting, and complained while tearing off the cloth in Qin Miaomiao's mouth: "What are you doing, we are in a hurry, we have to rush to Lingnan City at noon tomorrow, otherwise this goods will be delayed." ”
Qin Miaomiao gasped for a while, and was already weak when she spoke: "I'm sick, I know some medical skills, I know that this disease is serious, I'm afraid I'm going to die." After Qin Miaomiao finished speaking, she gasped for a while, sat up and leaned on the car, half-squinting, and secretly watched the reaction of the coachman and his daughter-in-law.
Sure enough, when they heard that she was going to die, both the coachmen looked a little flustered.
The coachman hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "You don't lie to us, wasn't it okay last night?" What disease can die so quickly?"
Qin Miaomiao glanced at him, didn't argue, her lips moved a few times, and she lost her voice again, and only spoke after a long time: "Believe it or not, I have an old disease, but it's better to die, and now I'm better to die." ”
After speaking, ignoring the coachman's surprised gaze, he lay back in the wooden box and sighed leisurely: "Eh, let this wooden box be my coffin." After saying that, he closed his eyes and ignored the coachman and his daughter-in-law.
The two looked at each other, and they didn't pay attention for a while, the coachman's daughter-in-law stepped forward and touched Qin Miaomiao's face, and hurriedly retracted her hand: "Brother Zhao, she is old and hot here, it seems that she is really sick." ”
As soon as he said this, the coachman lost his attention, walked to the side and knocked on the wooden box: "Eh, can you survive this illness to Lingnan Town?" There is a lot of Lang Zhong in that place to rule you. ”
Qin Miaomiao sneered in her heart, I'm afraid that when you get to Lingnan, you will pull yourself to exchange for silver, how can you find something for yourself.
Shaking his head weakly: "I am ill urgently, when I was at home, there was someone to diagnose and prescribe medicine for me, so I was able to live until now, now Langzhong does not have it, and I don't have the medicine, it would be good to survive until dark." ”
In order to pretend to be a little like a little, Qin Miaomiao turned her heart sideways and bit down her tongue, the smell of blood instantly filled her mouth, and she coughed violently for a while, and blood remained along the corners of her mouth.
This really frightened the driver. His daughter-in-law was also numb as she stood aside.
If this person died, how would they have to explain it, not only could they not earn money, but they were also in danger, and the group repeatedly emphasized that they could not let people die, if they died, I am afraid they would not spare their husband and wife.
"Brother Zhao, you should think of a way, what should we do!" His daughter-in-law was so anxious that her voice trembled a little, although Qin Miaomiao had a serious fever, but she was not stunned in her heart, and secretly rejoiced, it seemed that she was right this time, she didn't want to scare them, she just wanted some hot water and a thick dress, she saw the coachman and daughter-in-law so nervous about their illness, so she came up with the idea of biting her tongue to scare them, I didn't expect them to be so scared, and so easy to fool.
