Chapter 216 Danger

"Why are you still hanging around there? We don't have time to wait for you to die here.

If you don’t come over, we can only go back to the Holy Capital and tell the Holy Lord that criminals from you Xiaosu and Su Mansion are taking advantage of the floods to flee everywhere.”

The officials had not had enough to eat for several days, and their bodies were dripping with smelly water. Looking at the people in the Xiaosu and Su mansions who were still refusing to come out, they felt extremely miserable.

In fact, at this time, it would be good to leave them in the cave to wait for death. Anyway, when they returned to the Holy Capital, they said that the people from Xiaosu and Su Mansion had taken advantage of the chaos to escape. By then, the court would issue wanted documents to various places, and they would not be able to escape.

Lose...

"Master Jun, our house is full of women. We really don't have the strength to pull the rope across the water." The eldest lady Qin Ru looked at the frail Xiao Jing and the elderly Xiao Guo, and could only bite the bullet and plead: "

Master, can you help us on the shore?"

"You, a group of more than thirty people, want to exhaust us to death?" The military master looked at the first lady Qin Ru with a funny look on his face, and sneered mercilessly: "Remember you are just prisoners."

"Let's go." A group of people from the Xiao Mansion's side couldn't sit still. They stayed in the cave waiting for death, so they might as well fight for it.

At that moment, he bypassed Mrs. Qin Ru and quickly jumped into the water holding the rope. However, the water was unpredictable and he could only hold on to the rope tightly, unable to move forward.

"Help, help, I can't walk at all." The man himself was very weak, and he was exhausted after hanging in the water for just a while.

At this time, the three officers standing at the end of the rope just looked at the man asking for help in the water, unmoved.

"It's a matter of life and death. You people who are good at water, why don't you hurry down and help? Do you have to let everyone in Xiaosu and Su Mansion die here before you are willing to do it?"

The eldest lady Qin Ru knew that the direct descendants of the Xiao family were all female relatives, so she could only incite the men from the collateral families and the Su family to help, otherwise they would not be able to get through at all.

"Yes, we are all grasshoppers on the same rope now. Only by helping each other can we reach Sichuan alive." The man in the water struggled with all his strength, but no matter how hard he struggled, his position did not change at all.

He was only about ten meters away from the shore, but it seemed like he was separated by an abyss, which he could not cross no matter what.

"Help..." The man's hands were no longer able to hold the rope, and his body sank deeper and deeper. Finally, sewage entered his mouth, drowning his cry for help.

In the cave, his relatives all knelt down and begged: "Please, please, he is not water-based..."

"I'll do it." Xiao Yian looked at Su Ya. He originally thought that after someone passed by, he would take Su Ya through the water together.

But as he watched the man in front of him gradually sink to the bottom of the water, he was proficient in water and shouldn't just sit idly by.

"Yi'an, nothing can happen to you..." Su Ya was also very kind-hearted. Seeing the man on the verge of death, she did not stop Xiao Yi'an, but just told him to be careful.

Mrs. Rongfu was also a little worried about her son going into danger, but now no one came out to break the deadlock. Everyone would die here, so she could only let her son jump into the water.

Under the attention of everyone, Xiao Yian swam to the man, brought him out of the water and returned him to the cave. He held the rope the whole time, worried that there would be an accident.

After the man was pulled toward the cave by the crowd, he relied on the rope to pull him and trudged toward the shore.

With Xiao Yian holding the rope on the shore, Xiao Tianyou also jumped into the water and landed lightly on the shore.

After that, other men came ashore one after another, and everyone worked together to pull the rope, so that the remaining women only had to jump into the water and be pulled to the shore without any effort.

At this time, everyone in Xiaosu and Su Mansion was full of stench, but the official officials who had rested early in the morning did not give them much time to rest, so they organized the team and headed for Dazhou City along the rugged mountain road.

At this time, Su Manrong, who had entered the city limits of Dazhou, was woken up by the shaking carriage again. He lost his sleep for a while, sat up and looked out the window.

"Isn't it? Why has the situation changed again?"

When we set out from Xianyang City in the morning, the sun was very bright, and Su Manrong was worried that it would be very hot while riding in the carriage. However, she had slept in a daze for almost a day and did not feel hot at all.

Unexpectedly, the weather was fine, but now there are dark clouds, and it looks like there will be a heavy rain soon.

"Although we have entered the boundaries of Dazhou City, we are still some distance away from the city. We probably won't be able to make it before it rains."

Xiao Chengxian just took a short nap to recuperate, and spent the rest of the time quietly admiring Su Manrong's sleeping face.

Seeing that she wasn't sleeping very well, she kept urging Sansan and the officials to drive their horses. The road to reach Zhoucheng was really difficult to describe. It hadn't rained in the past two days, so it was difficult to walk.

If it rains, I'm afraid it will be difficult to walk. It's still a long way from the inn, so we can only find dilapidated temples or abandoned houses along the way to take shelter from the rain.

"Huh..." Su Manrong cursed secretly and lowered the curtain of the car window irritably: "It's really God's unkindness."

She was even more upset when she thought that those animals in the space would be a huge unnecessary expense if they stayed for one day.

As soon as he finished speaking, heavy rain started pouring down. The carriage had to slow down, and Sansan could only get out of the car and lead the horses forward.

"Madam, Sir, we are going to a ruined temple somewhere." Sansan, wearing a raincoat, came to the car window and reported.

"Go immediately." Xiao Chengxian said without hesitation.

When everyone approached the ruined temple, they saw smoke coming out of it, and they thought that someone had come to take refuge here. If there were groups of refugees, it would be extremely dangerous for them to stay here.

"Madam, Sir, there is only one little brother inside who is taking shelter from the rain." Sansan entered the ruined temple first and checked around. After confirming that there was no danger, the group entered the ruined temple.

When Su Manrong and her two aunts protected the two children and entered the ruined temple house, they recognized the young man in front of them at a glance.

"Little brother, it's you. I didn't expect to see you here again." Su Manrong was originally worried about whether her little brother, who was bitten by a poisonous snake on her behalf, could live alone among the refugees.

So when she saw him safe and sound, she instantly breathed a sigh of relief.ωωw..net

"Why did you come here all the time? Are you still alone?" Seeing that he was still as talkative as before, Su Manrong took the initiative to step forward and asked.

"Well, that mountain was full of refugees at this time. All the game and wild vegetables were eaten, so I left alone." The young man lowered his head and fiddled with the wooden frame in his hand, tied up the roasted pheasant, and held it up in front of Su Manrong:

"Thanks to the weapons my sister gave me, I didn't go hungry along the way."

"It seems that Madam is very familiar with this little brother?"
