I traveled through ancient times to escape famine with my arch-rival, the movie star.
Chapter 15: Rushing on the road in the middle of the day, something bad is bound to happen sooner or
"They are really hardworking. They dare to keep walking in this sun." Everyone exclaimed in amazement and then set off again.
On the way, Shen Ying drank a few sips of mint water from time to time, and she felt much more energetic than on the previous section.
The Lian family convoy ahead.
The servant beside Liancheng spotted three people hiding behind a tree not far away. He squinted his eyes and took a look. He found that they were just ordinary farmers with a child, so he didn't pay much attention to them.
Looking around, I found that everyone in the escort agency was sweating profusely.
He looked up at the sun.
He was sitting outside the young master's carriage, which was specially designed to cover him. However, not all of the escorts had horses, let alone any cover. If he continued walking like this, he was afraid that people would complain.
He knocked on the car door. "Master, the scorching sun outside is really harmful. Why don't you take a break for a while?"
"We've rested. It would be a waste to walk again. Can't we just give ourselves enough time to rest at night? We've paid for it." Lian Cheng said unhappily.
If his own guards had not been seconded by his aunt to transport some goods and had not returned for a long time, would he have hired a group of small town escorts with average fighting skills and a lot of money?
They received a hundred taels of silver just to escort people to Yongcheng, so what else could they pick on?
Liancheng thought of the farmers who followed the team not long after they set out: "Are those farmers from the countryside still behind?"
"No, they probably aren't coming for us."
Liancheng doesn't believe it.
In a blink of an eye, a maid was seen jogging, delivering wet handkerchiefs and cold cakes to the escorts.
Miss Lian had suggested before that the convoy should rest for an hour, but Lian Cheng rejected the idea on the grounds that she had never been out of the house and didn't know how to get along with outsiders. So what resulted in this?
Lian Cheng lifted the curtain and looked behind him in the hot wind. The car behind him was even bigger. It was the car of Lian family's original daughter Lian Bihe. Ice was put in the car before they set off, so it must be extremely cool at this moment.
"Just enjoy the best carriage, why are you making such a fuss?" Are you playing the sympathetic part?
Why don't you just play in the backyard in the future? This is a place for men only, why do you need to show off?
It was not until the afternoon that Liancheng, who had finished his tea and snacks in the car, called a halt and asked the servants to prepare dinner.
Before they could finish their meal, a servant suddenly fell to the ground and twitched. His face turned purple and his skin was very hot.
Even after being given water and asked to lie down and rest, his symptoms did not improve. He even started vomiting and became unconscious.
Lian Cheng sighed. It was impossible to just leave him to fend for himself in such a shameful way in such a remote place.
"Go tell him to be patient. I will hire the best doctor for him when we return to Yongcheng. I will also give him five taels of silver."
After the servant left, the servant stood up firmly, staggered a few times, and finally sat down again, but at least he did not show his discomfort obviously.
The servant felt sad, thinking that if he had taken a rest at noon, the situation might not have been so serious.
But what can a slave do?
The Lian family team had their meal, and Shen Ying and the others had just closed the distance. They had brought dry food with them, so they didn't stop on purpose.
"Should we stop and wait for them to set off, or should we go ahead?" Master Wu turned around and asked Shen Youtian.
The escort leader told him that it would actually be safer if the two teams went together, but the young master of the Lian family paid a lot of money and would not be happy for others to ride on the convoy, so he taught him to keep a certain distance from the team in front so as not to be caught by others. That's why he turned around and asked Shen Youtian what arrangements were.
Shen Youtian asked: "Can you find a place to stay at night?"
Master Wu said, "No, the nearest small temple can only be reached after midnight."
It is not wise to travel at night.
"Then let's keep going." Maybe if they leave first, and then when they rest at night, the two teams will meet again.
Since he originally wanted to join a stronger team, Shen Youtian was naturally low-key and sensible.
Master Wu continued to lead the way.
When passing by the Lian family team, Shen Ying saw a pale man not far away. He must have had heatstroke.
Tsk, he doesn't even take a break in the middle of the day. I guess he's not the only one with problems.
It's so hot and you still have to stew meat and cook vegetables. Why not use the time to eat some pancakes and rest?
Shen Ying held the bamboo tube and inhaled.
I’m almost done with it. The mint water is so refreshing.
The sun is fierce and fair, shining brightly on all living and non-living things.
When Shen Ying heard the escort say: This place is suitable for staying overnight, she almost stumbled and fell face down on the ground.
That was caused by the legs and feet unconsciously releasing force after hearing the destination.
Shen Ying really felt like her legs were filled with lead, almost out of her control, and trembling slightly.
She quickly found a vacant space, no longer caring about her image or the energy to check if there were any bugs in the grass. She just leaned over and started pounding her leg muscles, gasping for breath.
Even after drinking a few sips of water, she still couldn't get over the weakness and slight nausea.
Shen Ying suddenly remembered the nutrient solution that Qi Yanchuan sold to her.
"Oh, right, nutrient solution." Isn't it said that this thing can eliminate negative states?
Shen Ying stood up with difficulty, lit a candle, and said that she wanted to find a place to go to the toilet. Shen's mother wanted to go with her, but Shen Ying refused: "I couldn't go out at noon, and my shit must be smelly."
Mother Shen: ... "Then don't go too far."
Shen Ying didn't stop. After walking for a distance, she switched to a flashlight, and then she could see the road clearly.
After turning two corners, the lights went out and people rolled into the mall.
She had previously diluted the nutrient solution and put it in a dispensing bottle, and now she sprayed it directly into her mouth a few times.
It's really effective. It instantly eliminated the feeling of fatigue.
Shen Ying looked around and saw a rice noodle shop. After eating two meals of dry food, she was almost dry.
Shen Ying took a bowl of rice noodles and slurped it, then lay down on the massage chair at the entrance of the cinema and enjoyed it.
After fifteen minutes, Ka filled himself with new water and came back to reality. He moved towards the fire little by little. Those were the two fires that everyone had lit after setting up camp, mainly for lighting and to prevent sudden injuries from wild beasts in the forest.
However, Shen Ying discovered that he was sitting next to the fire! Qi Yanchuan? ?
Shen Ying went to her mother to ask with confusion.
"Oh, the Qi family, they also chose to go to Yongcheng and set off earlier than us."
"Then why did you come to us?" Shen Ying subconsciously felt that Qi Yanchuan would bring trouble.
"Well, he seemed to tell your father that there was another group of people ahead. They were quite large and looked bad-tempered. He didn't dare to continue walking with his family and planned to stop for a while. He happened to see us camping here, so he came over to share the meal."
When Shen Ying heard this, she thought that this sixth sense was really reliable.
Qi Yanchuan's gaze suddenly turned and met Shen Ying.
The firelight illuminated the faces of the two people, and they could almost see the emotions on each other's faces.
But when they met in this wilderness, neither of them had any special reaction, and their eyes quickly looked away after meeting.
"There's someone in front!" At this moment, there was a loud noise not far away.
Master Wu, who was dozing with his eyes closed, suddenly stood up and looked towards the place where the noise came from.
Lanterns were hung on the carriages, and some people held torches to provide lighting.
"He's from our escort agency!" Escort Master Wu discovered that the person walking in the dark night was actually from his own escort agency.
How come they've slowed down so much?
And he was still walking at night. Could something have happened?
