At night, the team rests outside the city gate.

In the evening, Su Ying took the sesame seed cakes she bought from her bag and asked everyone to eat them with water, and another person took a piece of dried tiger meat. Everyone was injured today. They haven’t slept since Xiao Jin and Su Ying fell off the cliff. After a restful sleep, now that they have all returned safely, they can finally take a good nap for a while.

But when I slept until midnight, it began to rain again.

Su Ying, who was leaning on the side of the carriage, opened her eyes, and saw someone walking towards her in the dark rain.

Because of being drenched by the rain, the people in the team woke up one after another.

"Hey, look over there, why are there so many people coming?" A prisoner pointed to the direction of the official road outside the city gate.

When the others heard his voice, they looked towards the official road one after another, and sure enough, they saw a dense crowd of people walking over.

Riding in the night, those black figures gradually appeared in the gray moonlight.

They were pale and haggard, and they all came outside the city gate like walking corpses. Seeing that the city gate hadn't opened, they found a place to sit on the ground. They looked worse than the exiled prisoners like them.

Su Ying stood up and frowned at those people.

Because those people made a lot of noise, many people in the team were awakened.

"It's a person fleeing famine." He Shouyi looked at those people and said. When he spoke, he had already come to the side of the carriage, and his expression became vigilant.

Su Ying thought for a while, and said, "I'll go ask what's going on."

She walked among those people and stopped an old man who was walking towards the city gate. The old man stared at her vigilantly and said nothing.

Su Ying took out a piece of dry food from her body and quickly stuffed it into the uncle's hand, saying in a low voice, "Master, what's going on with you? It's late at night, why are you all coming to Yunshui City?"

The uncle glanced at the dry food in his hand, quickly hid it, and said: "There is a flood over there. We escaped from the village. It has been raining for days, and the dam on the upper reaches of the Wujiang River has a big hole. Our village They are all submerged, so we can only go north." After finishing speaking, the uncle ignored Su Ying, and sat down at a place closest to the city gate, so that he could enter as soon as the city gate opened in the morning.

Su Ying returned to the carriage, at this time, except for the three sleeping children in the carriage, everyone else woke up.

Su Ying told them what the uncle said.

Xiao Jin's expression darkened, "Crossing the Wujiang River is the only way to get to Beihuang."

He Shouyi's face was also very ugly, "If the dam on the upper reaches of the Wujiang River breaks down, we may not be able to get there."

According to the itinerary, they had to cross the Wujiang River first, arrive at Guangdong City, and then go all the way to the northwest.

But if they couldn't cross the Wujiang River, their way would be blocked, and there would be nowhere to go around.

This cognition made several people become silent. If they can't leave, where can their team of hundreds of people go? After the catastrophe, there may be another catastrophe. Can they avoid it?

Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.

The arrival of the victims made the originally silent team cast a heavier atmosphere.

The officials also sensed that the situation was wrong, and immediately selected a few strong prisoners from among the prisoners, and asked them to guard the supply cart, and asked them 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 in the past. These homeless victims who have nothing to eat are really ruthless. It doesn't matter whether you are a member of the imperial court or not. These people can eat you if they have nothing to eat. up!

Seeing more and more disaster victims, Li Da immediately organized a team to prepare to leave and stay away from these people.

But walking along this road, you can always see a steady stream of disaster victims going in the direction of Yunshui City. They all want to go to the city to hide from the disaster, but there are too many people. In order to ensure the safety of the people in the city, the government will not let them go. They went in.

"ah!"

Zhang Cuiniang suddenly exclaimed, Su Ying followed the sound and saw a dead body not far from the team that had been soaked in rain.

Su Ying frowned, telling Zhang Cuiniang not to look around and just pay attention to the road ahead.

At this time, the official who was walking ahead to explore the road came on horseback, ran up to Li Da and got off his horse neatly, "Boss, the wharf to cross the Wujiang River was flooded, and it was a waste of time for us to go there at this time. "

Li Da spat, "It's really bad luck this year, I have encountered all kinds of good jobs."

The piers were all flooded, and they were still crossing a fart river, but now it was raining heavily, where would they find a place to stay.

"Boss, go back. There is an abandoned ruined temple outside Yunshui City. It's big there." An official suggested.

He couldn't cross the river, and it was impossible for everyone to be exposed to the rain all the way, so he had to find a place to stay first. Li Da nodded and led the people back to the direction of the ruined temple.

However, they were not the only ones who could think of resting in the ruined temple. When they reached the ruined temple, there were already many fleeing victims staying 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 arrange the disaster victims to the side hall next to them, 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 yard and stopped, carried Dabao and Erbao out of the carriage, and also took off the things on the carriage.

Jiang Yang took Xiao Jin with him, and chose a relatively secluded and unobtrusive place to set down.

Su Ying hugged two small milk bags into it, and she smelled the rotten smell, which made her eyes swell.

Although the hall was big enough, hundreds of people came in, and the hall was packed to the brim.

Su Ying put the two children down, "There are too many disaster victims outside, let's eat simpler these days." What she meant was that there was no fire to cook for these few days, so as not to attract attention.

Su Ying's idea has been approved by everyone.

Su Ying took the medicine from her body and handed it to Dabao, "Ji'er, this is the medicine you need to take today. Although your injury has recovered a lot, it hasn't healed yet. You need to continue taking medicine until you recover. "

Dabao looked at her with eyes exactly the same as Xiao Jin's. He thought 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 This is not right.

Therefore, a small face was almost wrinkled into a dehydrated cucumber.

Seeing his tangled appearance, Su Ying thought of teasing him, "If you don't take medicine, your injury won't heal. If it doesn't heal, you won't be able to protect your father and Linger. Are you not afraid that they will be taken away by bad guys?"

When Dabao heard her words, his big eyes widened, "I will definitely protect Daddy and Linger! Hmph!"

As he spoke, he grabbed the medicine Su Ying gave him, opened his small mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Hmm!" After the sugar coating of the pills melted, the little milk boy frowned in one place due to bitterness.

"Hahahaha." Seeing his cute appearance, Su Ying laughed aloud.

Dabao was not in a good mood, so he turned around and slipped into Xiao Jin's arms.

Xiao Jin glanced at Su Ying coolly, "Childish."

Su Ying's smile remained unchanged, she raised her eyebrows provocatively, "It's also for the children."

Xiao Jin took the water bag to feed Dabao, not even giving her the corner of his eyes.

Su Ying raised her lips amusedly, father and son are really alike, of course, Dabao is much cuter than Xiao Jin.

"Officer, please give us a stutter, we haven't eaten for three days."

"Get out, there's no dry food here, get out of here."

Su Ying turned her head and saw the official messenger stopped by many victims outside the door.
