Chapter 123: Escape

The next day, the team continued on the road.

Jiang Shu's carriage gave the injured a patient, so he could only ride with Yu Zheng.

Yu Zheng's left arm was injured, and it was inconvenient to do many things, so Jiang Shu took care of him spontaneously.

Yu Zheng enjoyed it very much and felt that the injury was quite worthwhile.

It's a pity that his injuries are not serious, and he will be cured in a few days, and he can't pretend to be able to pretend to.

Because Jiang Shu changed his dressing every morning and evening, he knew his recovery from his injuries well.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to Beijing, and the time for the two to get along was running out, Yu Zheng was a little reluctant.

Before the departure of this day, the weather was gloomy and dreary, as if it was going to rain.

Yu Zheng was overjoyed, and on the grounds that it was inconvenient and dangerous to travel in the rain, he stayed at the post station for one more day.

The sky is beautiful, and not long after Yu Zheng made his decision, it rained heavily.

There was no official business, and there was no other pastime at the post station, so Yu Zheng called Jiang Shu to play a game.

The two gossiped while playing chess, and the day passed unconsciously.

In the evening, the rain stopped for a while, and then it began to fall again in the evening.

Yu Zheng lay on the bed, listening to the sound of rain outside the house, hoping to stay for two more days.

However, when the day came, the rain had stopped, and the sun appeared on the horizon.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the injuries of several seriously injured guards have not yet healed, and Jiang Shu can still share a car with him.

Although the sky had cleared, the road was still muddy, and the carriage was not moving fast.

When passing a road facing the mountains, many stones rolled down the road, and the carriage could not pass through.

The team was forced to stop and ordered the guards: "Go and clear the road." ”

Chasing Yun dismounted and walked to the carriage and explained the situation to Yu Zheng.

"How long will it take?" Jiang Shu asked.

Chasing Yun glanced at it and estimated, "About a quarter of an hour." ”

"Then get out of the car and get some air." Jiang Shu got up and got out of the carriage.

Yu Zheng and Tanyu also got off one after another.

The air after the rain was exceptionally fresh, Jiang Shu walked to the side of the road, closed his eyes and sniffed the fragrance of grass.

"This road is so dangerous, there is a mountain cliff on the side of the road, and there is a river under the cliff." Tanyu stood at the edge of the road, looking at the rushing river below and exclaimed.

If the passing carriage accidentally rolls over and falls off the cliff, the consequences are unimaginable.

Jiang Shu heard the faint sound of water, and also walked over to take a look.

"Boom!"

There was a loud bang, and everyone was startled, and they turned their heads to look at the place where the sound came from.

On the mountain not far away, a layer of mountains suddenly slid down, trees, dirt and rolling stones, like a huge beast, rushing towards them.

"It's a landslide, let's go!" Chasing Yun shouted urgently, and ran away.

The carriage parked in the middle of the road was the first to be hit by a rolling stone and rolled on its side.

The mud and trees slid down, and the carriage was submerged in an instant.

"Let's go!" Yu Zheng grabbed Jiang Shu's hand and fled quickly.

Tan Yu was frightened, his feet were a little disobedient, and he ran a few steps and fell down.

"Tanyu!" Jiang Shu turned around and shouted, his eyes flushed with anxiety.

Tan Yu was terrified, and Chasing Yun jumped in front of her, pulled her up and ran forward.

Seeing that Tan Yu was rescued by Chasing Yun, Jiang Shu was relieved and ran quickly with Yu Zheng.

However, the speed of the landslide was so fast that there was no way for them to escape.

In a hurry, Yu Zheng could only lead Jiang Shu to run to the edge of the cliff.

Running to the edge of the cliff, Yu Zheng looked at the river below and said decisively: "Jump down." ”

"I don't know how to water." Jiang Shu panicked.

Yu Zheng turned around and saw the rolling stones flying up.

There is no time to hesitate.

"Trust me!" Yu Zheng grabbed Jiang Shu's hand and jumped forward.

Jiang Shu didn't dare to look down, so he turned back and looked back.

A quick glance surprised her.

On the top of the mountain in the distance, there seemed to be a crowd of people.

didn't have time to take a closer look, she and Yu Zheng had fallen off the cliff.

When he fell into the river, a palm-sized rock rolled down and hit Yu Zheng's back.

"Hmm!" With a heavy snort, Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu sank to the bottom of the river.

Jiang Shu didn't know water at all, and his consciousness gradually sank after choking on a few mouthfuls of water as soon as he entered the water.

Yu Zheng ignored the pain in her back, grabbed Jiang Shu's hand and pulled her to her, and hurriedly gave her a sigh of relief.

didn't have time to taste it, and after finishing the breath, Yu Zheng took Jiang Shu to swim to the water.

"Ahem!"

Finally surfaced, Jiang Shu coughed a few times and breathed heavily.

Before she could recover, the rushing river swept in, making them unable to stabilize their shape, and they could only be slapped and carried with the current.

Jiang Shu doesn't know water, and if he continues like this, he will inevitably drown. Yu Zheng's strength alone is limited, and he can't compete with the power of nature.

If this continues, he and Jiang Shu will definitely be scattered.

Yu Zheng quickly thought about how to deal with it, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a big tree floating on the river, which should have fallen from a landslide.

On the endless road, Yu Zheng half-hugged Jiang Shu and tried his best to swim in the middle of the river, and when the big tree floated past them, he decisively grabbed it.

Yu Zheng hugged the big tree with one hand and Jiang Shu tightly with the other, and the two of them were half-lying on the trunk together.

Jiang Shu choked on some water again, her consciousness was drowsy, and she couldn't hold the trunk at all, so she relied on Yu Zheng to support her.

It can't go on like this, they don't know how long they will have to float, they must stay awake and hold on to the tree.

Yu Zheng approached Jiang Shu and took a deep breath and pressed it towards her cherry lips.

The lips touched, and the warm and soft touch made Yu Zheng's heart tremble.

When Fang Cai gave Jiang Shu a boost under the water, he was too hurried and urgent, and he didn't have the intention to experience it at all.

Now I know what Jiang Shu's lip flap tastes like.

Warm and soft, like the Lantern Festival eaten on the day of the Yuan Festival.

"Ahem!"

Yu Zheng gave Jiang Shu a few breaths, and Jiang Shu finally came to his senses.

"Hold on to the trunk and don't let go." Yu Zheng instructed in a deep voice.

Jiang Shu, who regained consciousness, hurriedly hugged the tree with both hands and lay on the tree to gasp.

I don't know how long it took, but the river finally didn't rush so much, and the two breathed a sigh of relief.

After drifting for a while, the river level eased. Yu Zheng gave up the big tree and swam ashore with Jiang Shu.

"Whew-whew-" The two men lay on their backs on the riverbank, gasping for air.

After resting for a while and recovering his strength slightly, Yu Zheng got up and looked around.

It is a river valley with lush vegetation and wildflowers, and the scenery is extremely beautiful.

Yu Zheng walked around and found that there was a path on the shore, and he didn't know where it led.

He returned to the bank of the river and asked Jiang Shuke if he was okay.

Jiang Shu nodded: "I'm not injured, what about you?" ”

Yu Zheng was afraid that she would be worried, so he didn't tell her about being hit by a stone in the back.

"Let's rest a little longer, we'll go when we're done."

Jiang Shu looked around, there was nothing but rivers and mountains, and asked blankly, "Where is this?" ”

Yu Zheng shook his head: "I don't know, there is a road over there, we can always walk out along the road." ”

Jiang Shu got up and walked a few steps to find that wild flowers were everywhere, butterflies were fluttering, and birds were singing and fragrant, like a fairyland on earth.

"It's beautiful." Jiang Shu couldn't help but admire.

Especially when I just experienced a death escape, I feel that the scenery in front of me is beautiful and precious.

It's a pity that now is not the time to enjoy the scenery.

Seeing that the sun was setting in the west, and it was about to set in a short time, Jiang Shu urged: "Let's go." ”

The two of them were soaking wet, but fortunately the weather was warm and the sun was shining, so they didn't feel too cold.

But the soaked clothes were clinging to his body, revealing his delicate figure, and Yu Zheng's throat tightened when he saw it.
