Chapter 28: Childishness
At night, the team rested outside the city gates.
In the evening, Su Ying took the baked cakes from the baggage for everyone to eat with water, and another person took a piece of tiger jerky, everyone was injured today, since Xiao Ying and Su Ying fell off the cliff, they haven't slept peacefully, and now they are all back safely, they can finally squint for a while.
But in the middle of the night, it began to rain again.
Su Ying, who was leaning on the side of the carriage, opened his eyes and saw someone walking towards this side in the dark rain.
Because of the rain, the people in the team woke up one after another.
"Eh, look over there, why are so many people coming?" A prisoner pointed in the direction of the official road outside the city gate.
When the others heard his voice, they all looked towards the official road, and sure enough, they saw a dense crowd of people coming over.
In the night, those black figures gradually revealed in the gray-white moonlight.
They were pale and emaciated, and they came to the gate like the walking dead, and when they saw that the gate was not yet opened, they found a place to sit on the ground, which was worse than that of their exiled prisoners.
Su Ying stood up and frowned as she looked at those people.
Because the movement of those people was not small, many people in the team were awakened.
"It's a desert escape." He Shouyi looked at those people and spoke, and when he spoke, he had already come to the side of the carriage, and his expression became vigilant.
Su Ying thought about it, but still said, "I'll go and ask what's going on." ”
She walked among the men and stopped an old man who was walking towards the city gate, who stared at her warily and said nothing.
Su Ying took out a piece of dry food from his body, quickly stuffed it into the uncle's hand, and whispered, "Uncle, what's the matter with you?" It's a big night, why did they all come to Yunshui City? ”
The uncle glanced at the dry food in his hand, and quickly hid it before saying: "There was a flood on our side, we escaped from the village, and it rained heavily for several days, and the dam in the upper reaches of the Wujiang River cracked, and our village was flooded, so we could only go north." After saying that, the uncle didn't pay attention to Su Ying anymore, and found a place closest to the city gate to sit down, so that when the city gate was opened in the morning, he could enter as soon as possible.
Su Ying returned to the side of the carriage, and at this time, except for the three children who were sleeping soundly in the carriage, everyone else woke up.
Su Ying informed them of what the uncle said.
Xiao Yan's face sank, "Crossing the Wujiang River is the only way to the Northern Wilderness." ”
He Shouyi's face was also ugly, "If the dam in the upper reaches of the Wujiang River collapses, we may not be able to pass it." ”
According to the itinerary, they had to cross the Wujiang River first, arrive in Yuecheng, and then go all the way to the northwest.
But if they can't cross the Wujiang River, their road will be blocked, and there will be nowhere to bypass.
This realization made several people silent, if they couldn't go, where could their team of hundreds of people go? There may be a catastrophe after the catastrophe, can they avoid it?
The thought of all this makes my scalp tingle.
The arrival of the victims cast a heavier aura on the otherwise silent team.
The official also sensed that the situation was wrong, and immediately selected a few of the prisoners who were still physically strong, asked them to guard the supply cart, and asked people to pull the cart to the side of Su Ying's carriage to walk with the carriage.
Li Da has also encountered such a situation once in the past, these homeless victims who have nothing to eat, they are really ruthless, but whether you are from the court or not, these people can eat you without food!
Looking at the increasing number of victims, Li Da immediately asked the whole team to prepare to set off and stay away from these people.
But along the way, I can always see a steady stream of people going to the direction of Yunshui City, they all want to enter the city to avoid the disaster, but there are too many people, and the people of the government will not let them go in order to ensure the safety of the people in the city.
"Ahh
Zhang Cuiniang suddenly exclaimed, Su Ying followed the sound and saw a corpse that had been soaked in the rain not far from the team.
Su Ying twisted her eyebrows and asked Zhang Cuiniang not to look around, just pay attention to the road ahead.
At this time, the official who was walking in front of the road came on horseback, ran to Li Da and neatly turned over and dismounted, "Boss, the wharf crossing the Wujiang River was flooded, and we ran in vain at this time." ”
Li Da took a sip, "This year is really bad luck, and I have met Lao Tzu with all kinds of good jobs." ”
The wharves were all flooded, and they crossed the fart river, but now that it was raining drippingly, where did they find a place to stay.
"Boss, go back, there is an abandoned ruined temple outside Yunshui City, which is big." An official messenger suggested.
Can't cross the river, and it is impossible for everyone to follow the rain all the way, so they can only find a place to settle down first, Li Da nodded, and led the people back to the direction of the broken temple.
It's just that it's not just them who can think of it as they rest in the broken temple, when they walked to the broken temple, there were already a lot of fleeing victims inside.
When the victims saw so many people coming in at once, they all stared at them vigilantly.
In order to facilitate management, Li Da asked the officials to place the victims in the side hall next to it, and the prisoners in the team were concentrated in the main hall, which could accommodate hundreds of people at the same time.
Su Ying led the carriage to the courtyard and stopped, picked up Dabao and Erbao from the car, and took the things on the carriage together.
Jiang Yang took Xiao Shen and chose a relatively secluded and unnoticeable place to fall.
Su Ying hugged the two little and put them in, and she smelled the rancid smell coming from her nose, which made her eyes swell.
Although the hall was large enough, hundreds of people came in and filled the hall.
Su Ying put the two children down, "There are too many victims outside, so we will eat more easily these days." What she meant was that she didn't make a fire to cook for a few days, so as not to attract attention.
Su Ying's idea has been approved by everyone.
Su Ying took the medicine from his body and handed it to Dabao, "Ji'er, this is the medicine you want to take today, although the injuries on your body have been much better, they have not healed yet, and you will continue to take medicine until you get better." ”
Dabao looked at her with a pair of eyes that were exactly the same as Xiao Yan, he felt that Su Ying was a villain, but this villain saved him again, now Dabao's little mood is very complicated, he wants to continue to hate Su Ying, but he feels that this is not right.
Therefore, a little face is about to wrinkle into a dehydrated cucumber.
Su Ying looked at his tangled little appearance, and had a desire to tease him, "If you don't take medicine, your injuries won't heal, and if you don't get better, you won't be able to protect your father and Ling'er, aren't you afraid that they will be arrested by the bad guys?" ”
When Dabao heard her words, his two big eyes widened, "I will definitely protect Daddy and Ling'er!" Hum! ”
As he spoke, he grabbed the medicine Su Ying gave him, opened his small mouth and took a bite.
"Hmm!" After the sugar coating of the pill melted away, it was so bitter that the little milk baby's little eyebrows were twisted into one place.
"Hahahaha." Su Ying was amused to laugh when she saw his cute appearance.
Dabao was not in a beautiful mood, so he turned around and fell into Xiao Yan's arms.
Xiao Yan glanced at Su Ying coldly, "Childish." ”
Su Ying's smile remained unchanged, and she raised her eyebrows defiantly, "That's also for the sake of the child." ”
Xiao Yan took a water bag to feed Dabao, and didn't even give her a corner of his eye.
Su Ying raised her lips funny, father and son are really the same, of course, Dabao is still much cuter than Xiao Yan.
"Sir, please give us something to stutter, we haven't eaten for three days."
"Fuck off, there's no dry food here, get out of here."
Su Ying turned around and saw that the official messenger was stopped by many victims outside the door.
