Chapter Seventy-Four: A Wave of Unsettled Waves Rises Again
Xiaobai is large, grew up in the mountains and forests since he was a child, has a strong sense of direction in the mountains and forests, and its sensitive sense of smell is very helpful to Hu Ran chasing people.
Shen Yunqing touched Yun Jiao and said softly: "Yun Jiao, my sister is going to borrow Xiaobai to help now, are you willing to do it?" ”
Yun Jiao tilted her head and asked, "Are you chasing that chubby uncle?" ”
Shen Yunqing: "Well, are you willing?" ”
Yun Jiao nodded: "I am willing, that fat uncle is too good to eat, and he still steals Xiaobai's food." After that, he turned around and touched Xiaobai's ears, "When Xiaobai finds him, ask him to double the compensation!" ”
Shen Yunqing repeated: "Okay, I want him to double the compensation." ”
In this way, Hu Ran took Xiaobai and more than a dozen soldiers under him out of Lanqiao Village.
And Shen Yunqing and Nangong Qiao came to Uncle Gan's house.
Zhang Dali fled, most likely to return to Yang City to complain to King Ning, now the villagers have just harvested the grain in their hands, and they are not hot yet, in case they are snatched away by King Ning, wouldn't they be busy in vain.
They came to discuss countermeasures with Uncle Gan.
When Uncle Gan heard that the general who was collecting grain had run away, he obviously had a mess of his mind and paced around the house, pulling up a handful of white hair from time to time.
"Will they come again? This, this, this...... There is not much rice that has just been shelled today, and there are not many in each family, so it is just enough to survive the winter! ”
"If they come, we won't be able to survive this winter."
Nangong Qiao said the worst possibility: "Nine times out of ten, it will come, and it is estimated that it is not as simple as collecting grain." ”
Uncle Gan moved his gaze to Nangong Qiao: "It's not enough for them to grab food, what else do they want?" ”
Nangong Qiao: "Don't forget, Yun Qing killed hundreds of soldiers in his hands. ”
Uncle Gan: "...... Is it really impossible to stay here? He turned his head, looked at Shen Yunqing with an earnest gaze, and said earnestly: "Miss Qing, I know you are very powerful, can you still help us once?" The thing you used last time was awesome, and if they come again, can you blow them up again? ”
Nangong Qiao stopped: "Her hand is not as much as she wants, and she can't deal with it if there are too many people coming." ”
Shen Yunqing looked at Nangong Qiao, who was playing a round for him, and said in his heart: This is really how much there is, but the latter sentence is right, if there are too many people, I am really not sure.
She nodded approvingly: "Uncle Gan, you have to think about the worst outcome, we can only run for our lives!" We are here to tell you today that we hope to prepare as soon as possible, and if there are too many people, you can hide first. ”
Uncle Gan was silent after hearing this.
She can understand that where she has lived for half her life, she said that she would leave it behind, and few people were willing, when Nan'an Village was burned, weren't there some villagers who were not afraid of death who refused to escape? In the end, he was buried alive.
"Or, Uncle Gan, you can go to the capital with us!" A voice rang out in the corner.
Shen Yunqing looked over and saw the village chief twisting a blade of grass in his hand, he was very addicted to tobacco along the way, or Uncle Gan taught him how to make tobacco leaves by himself, so he passed his addiction.
During this time, I lived in Uncle Gan's house, and two old people of the same age could talk very well.
He took a step forward and persuaded: "We have to leave in a few days, Qing girl can help you this time, but she can't help you later, you also know that your village has been requisitioned for grain five times, and there are locust plagues, and there is no way to live for a long time." It's better to go to the capital and find a way out. ”
"This ...... Will it work? Uncle Gan hesitated: "I'm afraid the villagers don't want to!" ”
Shen Yunqing felt that this was the only way, she took over the topic and continued: "Uncle Gan, when we first came to the village, you mistook us for soldiers who collected grain, and dared to drive the villagers to set fire to the ancestral hall, that is much more serious than now, if we are really officers and soldiers, most of you will not survive now, why don't you even have the courage to leave the village now?" ”
Uncle Gan shook his head and explained: "This is different, at that time, there was no food around, and the left and right were dead, it was better to fight, as the so-called barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, now there is a little food around them, and people are inert." ”
Shen Yunqing didn't agree very much, and interrupted him and said, "You only need to ask the villagers one sentence: do you want to die or food?" They will give a choice, if Hu Ran does not catch up with Zhang Dali, then at the latest the day after tomorrow, a large number of officers and soldiers will come to encircle and suppress the village, privately refuse the order to requisition grain, openly kill the officers and soldiers, even if they will not be executed immediately, they will be imprisoned, and at that time, I am afraid that no one will be able to save you. ”
If Shen Yunqing just suggested that Uncle Gan and them hide at the beginning, after hearing the village chief's suggestion, she also thought that there was no way to stay here, and if she could survive this year, she might not be able to survive next year, so it was better to go out and break through.
She didn't say to intimidate Uncle Gan, but just said what might happen in advance, so that Uncle Gan knew how serious the consequences of the matter were.
After speaking, Shen Yunqing carefully observed Uncle Gan's expression, probably frightened, Uncle Gan became nervous, and was about to walk outside the house: "I, I, I, I'm going to talk to them now." ”
Uncle Gan came out of the house, and Shen Yunqing, the village chief, said: "Village chief, we also have to be prepared, we have to leave, we can't stay here." ”
The village chief nodded.
……
When Shen Yunqing and Nangong Qiao returned to the ancestral hall, the Lin family ran out of it in a panic and met Shen Yunqing head-on, she took Shen Yunqing's hand and said hurriedly: "Yunqing, Cai'er, Cai'er are gone!" ”
Shen Yunqing: "Cai'er is gone?" Didn't she rest in bed all the time? When was it gone. ”
It's really a wave of unevenness!
Sensing that something was wrong, she walked briskly towards the room, which was empty, and there were still no figures.
Lin was about to cry, and she spun around a few times, trying to remember what had happened today.
"I went to the back hall to cook this morning, because I wanted to make up for her, it was a little long, and when I came back, I found that she was gone......"
Shen Yunqing asked, "Has the whole village been searched?" What about her house, did you go to see it? ”
Lin nodded: "I called a few brothers to go to the village to have a look." ”
At this time, those people came back, and they all said that they didn't see Cai'er, and they asked all the people in the village, but they didn't see Cai'er's figure.
"And where will she go?" Shen Yunqing looked at Nangong Qiao and muttered to himself, and then seemed to think of something, and asked Nangong Qiao: "Will she throw herself into the river again?" ”
Nangong Qiao sighed, frowned and replied: "I don't know, but I can't rule out this possibility!" Then he commanded the men: "Go and look carefully for the river on the other side of the field, and don't look for it if you can't find it tomorrow morning at the latest." Come back immediately. ”
If she really threw herself into the river, it can only be said that she has no nostalgia for this world, and she can't save the second time after saving once, so there is no need to spend more manpower on her.
