Several men swallowed and secretly bumped into a young man next to them who was also dumbfounded.
"Xiao Liu, didn't you say there was a dead person? This is a living person, right?"
"Is she a human or a ghost?"
"I heard that there are water monsters in the Canglan River that can bewitch and eat people. We won't encounter them, right?"
A few meters across the river, Xiao Lingyue heard their secret discussions: "..."
The corners of her mouth twitched: "Sorry, I'm just a human being."
"ah--"
Several men who were discussing secretly were startled and took two steps back in fright, "Say, talk!"
The young man was also startled: "I really spoke..."
Xiao Lingyue: "..."
"Ahem, don't talk nonsense. This girl probably fell into the water accidentally and was mistakenly thought to be dead by Xiao Liu... Anyway, rescue her first!" the leading wealthy businessman said with a cough.
The others then took action, broke off branches and handed them to Xiao Lingyue.
Xiao Lingyue hesitated for a moment, then reached out to grab the branch and swam to the river bank.
She was not familiar with the topography of the waters near the Canglan River, and she did not know which tributary the river had washed her into. After soaking in the water all night, her body was almost frozen.
The top priority is to go ashore first, make a fire to warm up the body, and figure out where this is before we can find the lost Zhan Beihan and the others...
As for these people...get in touch with them first, and then look at them later!
Xiao Lingyue lowered her eyelashes.
Soon, she was taken to a bonfire outside the woods by several people.
A dozen carts piled with goods were parked together, guarding a green cloth carriage in the middle. There were also a dozen people gathered near the fire, both men and women, warming themselves and taking a rest.
It looks like an ordinary caravan.
Xiao Lingyue observed her surroundings calmly.
Seeing everyone coming back, a middle-aged man stood up by the fire and said, "Boss Zhao, why have you been gone for so long? Are you okay?"
The wealthy businessman waved his hand: "It's okay, it's just a false alarm."
"Who is this girl?"
Next to the middle-aged man, another woman stood up and looked at Xiao Lingyue suspiciously.
"Sister Qiao, my eldest brother and I picked this up in the water. She seems to have fallen into the water accidentally." Xiao Liu explained.
"Falled into the water?" The woman looked at Xiao Lingyue's drenched appearance, nodded her head clearly, stretched out her hand to say hello, "Come here to warm yourself up before talking, Xiao Liu, go to the carriage and get my cloak.
."
"Okay." Xiao Liu quickly ran to the carriage.
Boss Zhao turned around and said with a smile: "Girl, don't be afraid. We are a serious caravan. If you have anything to say, just sit down and warm up over the fire."
Xiao Lingyue nodded and walked over quietly.
The woman made room by the fire, motioned for her to sit down, and handed her the cloak that Xiao Liu had brought over.
Then he asked: "What's your name? Where are you from? How did you fall into the water?"
Xiaoliu also sat down and looked at her curiously with the others.
Xiao Lingyue was wrapped in a cloak and sat next to the fire, feeling that her frozen body was gradually warming up.
She felt everyone's eyes on her, her thoughts flashed quickly, she lowered her eyes slightly, and her voice was a little hoarse: "I was out on a boat with my husband for fun. I didn't expect that there were water bandits on the boat in the middle of last night. I
In a panic, I accidentally slipped and fell into the water, and somehow I ended up floating here. Fortunately, Boss Zhao found me and rescued me."
