The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times
Chapter 708 Dispute on the Ship
In the past two days, the single room not far from the captain's room has also become unsafe.
When Lu Qingqing was sleeping at night, she heard the sound of someone prying open the door in the next room.
However, before the door could be pried open, the family woke up.
The man in that house shouted loudly and scared the thief away.
Lu Qingqing became more and more alert.
Every time he went out, he would put Qin Lang and Old Man Zhuang's valuables into the space.
In addition, she also communicated with Old Man Zhuang.
From then on, every time it was time for dinner, she would let him come from the cabin to eat with her.
As for the medicinal herbs and slightly more expensive items in the cabin, they were all moved to the single room.
The only thing that hasn't changed is that the stubborn old man insisted on living in the cabin.
Lu Qingqing had no choice but to ask more about Qin Lang's condition every time he came.
This will delay the time and allow him to stay here longer.
Little did they know that Old Man Zhuang was so confident in front of them.
When I returned home alone, I cried with a gloomy face.
But now, there was no master or senior brother who could help him.
All he can do is continue to study and work hard!
He had never imagined in all these decades of life that the time he would work the hardest in his life would be when he was only 50 years old.
Every time my eyes get blurry from reading, I remind myself again and again.
The book has its own house of gold, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu.
The book may contain a way to deal with Qin Lang and save his life!
During the days when Dr. Zhuang worked hard, the passenger ship was moving forward at the fastest speed.
On this day, the passenger ship had already left the capital city.
When passing a pier, the bow found that the pier was not as it was before, and there was a large group of people wanting to get on the boat.
Because they were out of the capital, the people on the ship thought that things were not chaotic here.
He ordered the boatman to dock the passenger ship so that he could go to the dock to replenish some food.
But they never thought that they had just landed not long ago.
Then I saw a large group of men rushing out with axes and sticks.
The fierce look in those people's eyes scared many people and made them run back in panic.
Fortunately, the captain reacted quickly and directed the boat away from the shore before those people got on board.
But, among those who came ashore.
Many of them did not make it back and stayed at that dock forever.
Among them, there were several boatmen.
These people have been brothers with the captain for many years, and their relationship is naturally no different from that of others.
Among those who did not return, some had relatives still on the ship.
They found the bow of the ship, negotiated for a long time, and finally returned with the little food they received as compensation.
After this incident, passenger ships no longer dared to dock easily.
The people at the bow began to hope to get away from the capital as soon as possible.
Maybe it will be better if we stay further away.
However, the situation was not as optimistic as he thought.
The news that the capital had fallen and the emperor had hanged himself had spread throughout the world.
Some princes and generals who guarded a certain area came under the pretext of avenging Emperor Chongzhen.
Openly recruiting soldiers and expanding strength.
At the same time, the reputation of the Dashun regime began to spread far and wide.
Many bandits and roving bandits, under the name of King Chuang, openly attacked towns.
The chaos in the world has emerged!
The pier that the passenger ship passed behind was always crowded with people waiting to board the ship.
Otherwise, it is occupied by a certain force.
There are also those who are infected with the plague and everyone around them has died.
After experiencing two attacks and a plague, the ship no longer dared to dock for supplies.
But the situation on the ship is not optimistic.
The food reserves left at the bow of the ship are almost gone.
The people in the kitchen had no choice but to reduce the amount of cooking again.
But the number of people on the boat is limited, and if we don’t cook enough, many people will not have enough to eat.
Seeing that everyone was eager to eat them, even the people in the kitchen began to get scared.
He pestered the bow, asking him to find a solution.
The captain had no other choice but to think about returning part of the money.
Find a place to moor the boat and put those who are willing to get off the boat ashore.
But what he didn't expect was that when he spread the news, there was not a single person who wanted to get off the boat.
These days, passenger ships rarely dock.
But everyone could see clearly what was happening at the dock.
The area near the capital is not a safe place.
Once you get off the boat, you might get food, but you could easily lose your life.
As for those families who have no money or food, they have gradually found ways to make a living these days.
They use any means, such as stealing, robbing, cheating, threatening, etc., as long as they can have something to eat.
Even if they starve, at least they won't die.
In this way, the atmosphere on the ship became more and more tense.
And once, old man Zhuang had a knife put to his neck and was forced to give up food.
He no longer mentioned the strict separation of men and women and moved into Lu Qingqing's single room.
As for the things in the carriage, they were all moved into the single room.
Even the horse was led by Lu Qingqing to the door of the single room.
There was no other way, so the people in the bottom of the cabin, after having nothing to eat, started to think about eating the livestock.
After four livestock were stolen in succession, the remaining families kept their livestock close to them and watched them closely.
Of course, there are also those who can't even afford to eat, and they take the initiative to kill their livestock in exchange for food.
In fact, this situation has become more frequent in recent days.
Almost every two or three days, you could hear the cries of butchers on the deck.
Old Man Zhuang was a meat lover. When he heard the noise for the first time, he excitedly took out some money and went over to buy some meat.
When he came back, he looked lost and dejected.
They don't want money, they just want food.
After learning what had happened, Lu Qingqing exchanged the coarse grains for a few pounds of meat.
When Old Man Zhuang saw the meat, he smiled so hard that his teeth showed.
He stopped Lu Qingqing from handing the meat to the kitchen for cooking.
In his words, some meat has to be left for the kitchen, which is a complete waste!
He found a small clay pot from the pile of tools for boiling medicine.
After washing the meat clean, he rummaged through the pile of herbs for a while and took out a handful of them.
After working for a long time, the rich aroma of meat wafted out of the small casserole.
Old Man Zhuang picked out a few pieces of meat, filled half a bowl with it, and handed it to Lu Qingqing.
Seeing her nodding while eating, he raised his head proudly.
But when he saw Qin Lang lying on the bed, his smugness immediately cooled down.
Damn it, he’s over fifty years old, and yet he’s stumped by this little brat!
There was another round of hard work afterwards, but we will not talk about it for now.
Old Man Zhuang was in no mood to eat meat at this moment.
He immediately washed his hands, picked up the silver needle and gave Qin Lang another treatment.
