Chapter 404: Looking for a place to rest

Wang Can sighed faintly, then nodded and didn't say anything more.

In the interval between the silence of the two, the sky became brighter and brighter, and gradually the clouds in the east were slowly dyed red.

The range of the red glow gradually expanded, and the color became more and more red.

Moments later, the sun rises above the horizon.

The quiet atmosphere of the original green mountains and the birds flying freely seemed to be broken by the warm sun.

Bai Yan, who was driving the car, asked Li Qinghua, who emerged from the first carriage: "Patriarch Li, the sun is out, do you want to find a place to rest, or continue to walk for a while?" ”

Li Qinghua stood on the wheel, looked at the long queue of people behind, and didn't want to reply: "The sun has just come out at this time, and it's not very hot, and it's still the boundary of Liuyun County right now, so let's walk as much as we can." When I go back to Liuyun County, I am afraid it will be difficult to live in peace like now! ”

After he said this, he shouted to the people who had stopped to rest twice for one night: "Folks, the sun is out at dawn, and while it is not too hot, let's hurry as much as we can." When the hour is over, find a place to stop and renovate! ”

When Li Yuan heard Li Qinghua's voice, he walked out of the carriage and turned to look at the people who were still walking numbly in the distance.

"Everyone can walk as much as they can, and if you really can't walk, just say, let's find a place to rest." So I will first have the people look for it, and there will be a stream on the side of the mountain on both sides of this official road. If there is, let's go over there and set up a cook. If you don't have it, find a place where you can get shade. ”

Everyone in Lijiaao has at least two carts in every household.

Although the old and the young sat in ox carts or horse-drawn carts, the people who walked were basically young and able-bodied laborers.

But it's really unbearable to go uphill like this.

The men may be better, but the women are a little worse in terms of physical strength after all.

At the moment, the reason why they can continue to walk is because of perseverance.

It was just one night's work, and their straw sandals had long since broken out, and they didn't know how many blisters had come out of their feet.

They don't dare to stop, for fear that if they stop, they won't want to leave.

Hearing Li Yuan's words, someone raised his voice and replied: "Yuanniang, we are also in a hurry for the first day, we may not be used to it, we are too tired at this time, you first let people find a place to rest." We wanted to go to sleep quickly after eating, and by the way, we picked the blisters on our feet, otherwise we would not be able to continue walking at night. ”

"Good!"

After Li Yuan answered, he looked at Bai Yan: "Bai Yan, our carriage has the least number of people, go and see if there is any water source nearby." If not, find a forest with more vegetation. We have few people, and we have brought medicine, so we are not afraid of insects and snakes. ”

"Okay!"

Bai Yan responded, looked back at Li Duo and Li Rui who were still sleeping, and then whipped and stopped walking slowly.

When the carriage crossed Li Qinghua's carriage, Li Yuan turned back to him and said, "Uncle Hua, let's go find a place to rest first, and come back in an hour at the latest." At the moment, there are no people in the official road, if you can't stand it, you should stop and rest first, let everyone drink water, rest their feet, and feed the cattle and horses by the way. ”

"Okay, you just go, I'll settle down here!"

Every time Li Yuan travels back and forth between Fucheng and Liuyun County, she takes the official road, and she takes a carriage, and she doesn't know what the mountain roads on both sides of the official road are.

Fortunately, Wang Can has gone through her last life, even if she didn't leave at this time in her last life, she has some impression of where and what it looks like.

After Li Yuan sat back in the carriage, she bowed her head in Li Yuan's ear and said in an angry voice: "Sister, I left half a month later than we are now in my last life." From Shuiyun Village to here, it took three days. I remember walking forward for about half an hour, and there were three big camphor trees on the right. Walk straight in the direction of the big camphor tree, passing by a bamboo forest. About a mile from the bamboo forest, there is a small stream. We had a heavy rain at that time, and the water in the stream was very large, so let's be half a month ahead now, and I don't know what the situation is, why don't we go and see it? ”

Li Yuan was moved, so he asked: "Why did you go so far in your last life, didn't you take the official road?" Also, the place is so remote, how can we explain to Bai Yan and the eldest brother that we can find there at once? ”

"Sister, we fled when it was raining heavily. When they fled here, the dam burst and the flash flood came. The official road is full of people, not to mention that they can't go fast, and there are always people who have conflicts. No, Liu Donglin didn't want to waste time on conflicts, so he took everyone inside. ”

Wang Can said, his eyes rolled and said, "Sister, what I just said about half an hour means walking with your feet, and if there is a carriage, it will be much faster." Wait a while, I think it's almost over, you ask Bai Yan to stop the horse, and then call the eldest brother and second brother up, let's get out of the car and go to find it separately. Sister, you don't know the specific location, just stay here, feed the horses by the way, after we disperse, I'll find a chance to go over there. If there's water over there, we'll let the people go there, and if not, find another place. ”

As soon as Li Yuan heard that this was okay, he nodded and agreed: "Okay!" ”

It's just that the two of them discussed it, and the carriage didn't go far before they saw Bai Yan shouting Li Rui and Li Duo on the wheel.

"Brother Li, Second Brother Li, hurry up, let's go around and see if there is any water source!"

At the same time, Zhou Zi and Zhou Chou, who helped drive the carriage, also gave the reins of the carriage to others, and together with Bai Yan, they scattered towards the surrounding area.

Li Duo, who was shouted, didn't even turn his mind around what was going on, Bai Yan handed him the reins and left.

Li Yuan repeated Bai Yan's words again, and after the brothers also left, she personally drove the carriage and quickly came to the camphor trees according to Wang Can's prompts.

Wang Can had insect repellent on his body, picked up a woodcutter in his hand, jumped out of the carriage, and said to Li Yuan: "Sister, you are waiting for me here, I will come when I go, soon." ”

"Don't worry, you go slowly, let's put safety first!"

Wang Can waved his hand at her disapprerovingly and left.

I don't know if it was good luck or bad luck, she quickly found the place in her memory.

But when I found the small stream, it was almost dry, and the depth of the water was about the shallow size of an index finger.

Unwillingly, she walked up a few more meters, then squatted down to test the depth with her fingers, then turned around and walked back.

When she came back, she told Li Yuan about the situation, and finally said, "Sister, I think that if the stream goes up, the water should be deeper." At present, there is little water there, and its practical hoe is digging deeper, and maybe it can dig a big hole in the water. It may be cloudy at first, but after an hour or two, it will slowly become clearer. Since we came out, we are doing a lot of work outside, and everyone can save a little more water. After boiling, this raw water is the same as the well at home, and it is no problem to leave it for a few days. ”
