Chapter 844: The Tree Falls

[]/!

Spring rain continues in March and April. In this era without cement asphalt, the only thing that can keep it clean on rainy days is the bluestone slab.

The rain is not very sudden, but because they are already walking on the road, they are not in front of the village or the shop behind them, so they can only move forward in the rain.

Fortunately, the carriage where Sheng Xi and her child were specially modified by her. It is spacious enough to keep warm and airtight. The carriage is shock-proof and collision-proof, so even if the road is bumpy, the impact inside will not be too big.

But accidents are always caught off guard. Just when everyone thought they would walk through the quagmire road in front of them, a strong wind suddenly blew, rolling up the straw raincoats on everyone's body, and rolling up a big tree beside the road that was hugged by one person.

In an instant, there was a "click" sound, and the big tree was blown off by the wind, and it was smashed toward the carriage where Sheng Xi and the others were!

The coachman closed his eyes before, and when he saw the tree hitting the head, he was too late to turn the horse's head. Seeing that the trunk of the tree was about to hit the horse's back, a figure suddenly rushed over and caught the trunk with his back.

And just like this, the coachman had quickly pulled the reins, allowing the horse to barely move the smashed tree trunk.

In the carriage, Sheng Xi took back the stones from his fingertips, looked at the two sleeping children through a translucent curtain, and told the wet nurse to take care of it, then turned around and walked out of the carriage.

Xin Ru rode on her horse and heard the movement, she rushed over immediately. After seeing the person under the trunk, she immediately exclaimed, and then she moved the tree away from the man with the same guard.

"Madam, it's Chunniang!" Xin Ru said to her.

Sheng Xi nodded, jumped out of the carriage, asked someone to carry Chunniang into a carriage behind and treat him personally.

The person fainted, but the bones were not seriously injured, but the internal organs were impacted and needed to be well maintained.

Xin Ru was still scared when she thought of the situation just now, and seeing Chunniang doing this again, she couldn't help but blame herself: "Madam, it's the maid who didn't do it well! She was not alert enough, which made the maid and the young lady scared. It's the maid's fault!"

Sheng Xize said: "Don't take responsibility randomly. Natural disasters are predicted, and no one knows that the tree will fall."

Speaking of the tree, Sheng Xi paused and then returned to normal.

And she also thought of a question and asked Xin Ru: "How could Chunniang run to the front? Isn't she in the car?"

"Ah, this, Chunniang said she was really anxious and had no choice but to get off the car." The one who answered Sheng Xi was one of the stable ladies sitting with Chunniang.

Sheng Xi looked at the Wen Po. Seeing Sheng Xi signaling her to continue, the Wen Po continued, and then said, "At that time, it was still the old lady, I pulled out a straw raincoat from behind and gave it to her. Later, Chun Niang got out of the car. I was worried that the road outside would fall, so I lifted the curtain and looked at it, and saw her entering the forest."

Wenpo said as he pointed in one of the directions, but it was opposite to the falling tree, one left and one right, facing each other.

"What's next?" Sheng Xi asked.

"Ah, after that, because the wind was too strong, rain came in, so I didn't watch it anymore." Wen Po replied.

Sheng Xi's eyebrows moved slightly, which means that no one saw Chunniang coming back, and no one knew why she suddenly rushed over. But looking at the distance between the carriages, if she saw the danger rushing over, it would be explained.

Looking at the others, it was obviously not added.

Sheng Xi temporarily suppressed her conspiracy theory idea. At least from the current situation, Chunniang knows how to protect the Lord. Her collision today also attracted most of everyone's hearts.

"Okay, let's go back to the team. The rain will not stop today. Let's hurry up and hurry up and settle down to the nearest city or inn." After Sheng Xi gave the order, he looked back at Chunniang who was still unconscious, and then told the two women to say, "Take good care of her."

After that, she got off the carriage and returned to her carriage. When she got on the car, her eyes slid across the woods opposite, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

This accident made everyone more alert, especially the carriage where Sheng Xi was, which added a lot of people to take care of, for fear of another accident.

Fortunately, the road was relatively easy to walk afterwards, and there were a lot of trees on the side of the road. About an hour later, they finally arrived at the nearest station, and Sheng Xi ordered to rest in the station today.

The Yicheng was still lying in the lounge chair, humming a small song while fanning, and enjoying today's rainy scene. So many people suddenly appeared, and he was really stunned.

But the postmaster also reacted very quickly. So many people must be either rich or noble, and immediately called the only postmaster in the postmaster to get busy.

"Oh, where are the adults calling? It's not a good day today, nothing happened on the road, right? Oh, it's all wet, I'll ask someone to arrange a ginger soup..."

The official secretary said a stack of words, but there was no chance for Xin Ru to speak. Finally, when the other party turned around and wanted to arrange for the postman to cook ginger soup. Xin Ru hurriedly said, "Hey, no need, we make the ginger soup ourselves, but the kitchen wants to borrow yours."

"Ah, no problem! No problem!" Yi Cheng nodded quickly, his eyes swept across everyone and suddenly saw someone lying on a stretcher, his expression changed, and he immediately said, "This, this, this, this, this, is this injured? Oh, is this girl okay?"

As soon as Yi Cheng finished speaking, Chun Niang, who was lying on a stretcher and still unconscious, opened her eyes the next moment.

"Wow", the Yicheng jumped out of the far away as if he had seen a zombie.

Xin Ru: "..."

I just woke up and didn't have time to look at Chunniang around me: "..."

Yicheng, who realized that he had overreacted, said: "Hehe, then, what, the villain is a little afraid of ghosts."

Holding Sheng Xi, who had just come in from outside, held Shen Gui: "..."

She glanced at her and finally understood what Chunniang was like. Her tears were not fake, and she was obviously sober.

The Yi Cheng, who was so embarrassed that he wanted to pick his toes, turned his eyes back and forth several times, and finally bowed to Chunniang: "Girl, sorry! I really didn't mean to say you are a ghost!"

"Puff!" Xin Ru tried her best to tense her, but she still felt a little angry. This postmaster, it would be better not to say this apology.

Sheng Xi coughed lightly and said, "Let's help us arrange the room as soon as possible, oh, and this girl wants to arrange one separately."

Sheng Xi spoke, and the Yicheng also saw sharply that she was the person in charge, so he should go and make arrangements immediately.

But this inn is small after all. Although there are not many residents today, the single rooms that can be arranged are limited. More people need to live in the Datong B&B with others.

After Chunniang woke up, she struggled to get down. Everyone couldn't resist and had to put her off the stretcher.
