1323. The Road to Return (1) Three in One(2/3)

Lin Yutong looked at Shao Hua with some admiration.

Yu Liang gritted his teeth: "It's easy to get in, but I'm afraid that after this, Shenzhou's city gate will be difficult to enter tonight."

So what should I do?

Lin Yutong looked at the distance and asked Yu Liang: "Don't brother know how to ride a horse?"

Yu Liang looked at the horse. If he were alone, he would have run away long ago. But wasn’t this with two female relatives?

Lin Yutong said, "Brother is thin, my sister-in-law and I are both light and light. The three of us can't stand a big man. We will rush over with three horses. Take all the dry food on the car and scatter it when we get to a crowded place."

Yu Liang's eyes lit up and he turned his face to look at Lin Yutong. Before he could think too much, he responded. He lowered the curtain and asked his sister-in-law and sister-in-law to change their clothes.

He had prepared a long time ago, so Yu Liang had all the old clothes he used to carry. Now he quickly changed it, and plastered it with charcoal ash on his face, hands and neck, and his head was tinkering like a bird's nest. No one could see his face clearly. The sister-in-law and sister-in-law walked out of it.

Yu Liang untied the carriage from the horse and then helped Lin Yutong get on the horse. She was the smallest and sat in the front. Yu Liang sat in the middle and then reached out and pulled Shao Hua up. Yu Liang tied the three people together with a rope, and he controlled the horse with difficulty.

Lin Yutong looked at the horse carefully and frowned. The horse's physical strength still couldn't keep up. The three people were less than 200 kilograms, but the horse seemed very difficult. She asked Yu Liang: "Brother brings a dagger?"

Of course, there was a dagger in Yu Liang's boot. He immediately understood what Lin Yutong meant. Although it was a pity that the horse was under his butt, he knew how to choose. First, he rode his horse slowly forward. When he arrived, he stabbed the horse with a knife without saying a word. The horse hurt and neighed, and raised its front hooves and stood up. Yu Liang pulled the reins, but where could he hold it? Three people tied a rope and could not fall. Lin Yutong pulled the reins desperately, feeling that half of his body had slipped out of the rope and fell outside. Lin Yutong called Yu Liang to let go of the reins. Yu Liang held the reins with one hand and his wife with the other.

Lin Yutong no longer persuaded her. She shook the reins herself and almost lay on the horse. As long as she didn't fall down, the couple couldn't fall down. She patted the horse's neck, let go of the horse's legs, and stood up. The horse neighed and ran away.

She held the reins with one hand and threw the dry food hanging on the horse's body back with the other. After throwing the dry food, there was no one behind her for the time being.

Shao Hua was just hanging, and he hooked his legs and didn't dare to shout and pull it to the ground. Yu Liang had to hold Shao Hua with both hands to ensure that he couldn't make any mistakes. The injured horse ran away and couldn't stop until he was exhausted. Lin Yutong just controlled the reins and didn't ask him to run into the wasteland.

For an hour and a half, the horse was getting more and more full.

Lin Yutong tied the reins and the horse slowly stopped. Before the three of them could roll down from the horse, the horse fell down with a loud bang, panting heavily.

Yu Liang cut the rope that tied the three of them away quickly, struggled to stand up, pulling his wife with one hand and his sister with the other.

"Is it okay?" Yu Liang looked around and said, "We can't stay here for a long time. We know that we have a horse and are injured. The people behind us soon caught up."

Lin Yutong looked at Shao Hua: "I'm fine. I wonder if my sister-in-law was injured just now?"

"It's okay!" I must have been hurt a little, and it hurts everywhere. But now it's not the time to hurt.

The girl has a tendency: "I can do it, let's go now."

I was rushing to the sky at night, tired, thirsty and hungry, and I couldn't feel the cold now. I helped each other and walked forward.

Yu Liang said along the way: "It's getting faster and you'll arrive soon. There will be another two miles away."

But it was not until the land was ten or two miles away that the outline of the city could be seen from afar.

When I saw the place, I was not tired anymore. But when I saw it, I walked there, and the difference was so far. It took me two hours to trot outside the city gate.

Not to mention Shao Hua, even Lin Yutong felt that this little body had really reached its limit.

The city gate was brightly lit, and the lights were on it, and it was illuminated: "It's early enough for you to enter the city. It's only midnight, and the city gate is still two hours away. Let's wait."

Yu Liang quickly said, "Officials, Tongrong and Rongrong. The young people are the clerks of Yunheng Shop. When they come back from Gao Xian, there is really an urgent matter to report that the boss Xiao has a token on his body."

Lin Yutong didn’t know what the Yunheng Trading name was, but since it was reported at this time, it would definitely be useful.

Sure enough, after Yu Liang finished speaking, a rope was placed on it.

Yu Liang supported Lin Yutong: "Remember, don't talk too much when going up, wait obediently. Hold on, close your eyes and don't be afraid, go up immediately."

Let Lin Yutong go up first.

Good too!

Lin Yutong grabbed the rope and pulled it up. When he got on it, Lin Yutong didn't want anyone to help him, so he jumped onto the city wall quickly. Then the patrolers let go, you can pull it yourself.

Lin Yutong handed over all the scattered silver on her body, and then she smiled and said, "I know some rules, little brother."

Then Shao Hua was pulled up again.

Lin Yutong signaled Shao Hua to take the silver, and Shao Hua took it with ease and stuffed it all over. Only then did Yu Liang also pull up.

As soon as they stepped onto the city wall, the three people breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Liang took out all the money he had on him, and the others were willing to send it to them.

After getting off the city wall, Yu Liang called Lin Yutong and Shao Hua, and said angrily: "Hurry up, the shopkeeper is still waiting to reply."

Lin Yutong and Shao Hua didn't say anything, just followed Shao Hua and ran away. These people had no doubts, and they were about to fall down after watching the three of them run away.

Seeing that no one followed, Yu Liang breathed a sigh of relief. He led the two of them to rush around the alley, and finally stopped in front of a shop that was not very slapping. Then he took the key and opened the door and asked the two of them to follow in.

When the door was closed and the lights in the room were lit, I felt that I had come back to life.

Yu Liang didn't rest, so he went to the well behind to fetch water, and directly brought it to the front, took the scoop of water, and poured two scoops of water into one person, and then he felt better.

"Where is this?" Shao Hua felt a little uneasy. When he arrived in a strange place, there was no danger, he felt scared.

"This is a friend's place. He went to the south and didn't come back for a year or two. I gave me a key to this place and asked me to come to Shenzhou for business. At least there was a place to stay." He lay on the kang and gasped, "It's okay to repair it here, but I'm afraid. We don't look for the escort agency now. There are too many people looking for the escort agency in two days. The little money we have on us is not enough for a trip."

Therefore, it is better to leave early than to leave late.

Besides, with so many refugees coming, it is hard to say how many days Shenzhou can be safe.

Then leave and find an escort agency tomorrow.

Lin Yutong thought to herself: I guess when he entered the city before, he had pretended to be someone else's name. If he really found out, it would be a matter of trouble. It would be better to get out as soon as possible.

The three of them couldn't rest in a strange place. It was dawn and the three of them washed their faces and tidied them up.

Then head straight to the escort agency.

At this time, there was already a queue at the door of the escort agency. The caravans carrying goods had to go with so many people. They said, "I can't bring them with me, and I can't take care of them."

If you can't take care of it, you have to follow me, otherwise if there is a situation on the road, there will be no one who can help you.

Lin Yutong noticed that, sure enough, the city gate of Chenzhou had not been opened this morning. It was said that it was outside the city, and many refugees came continuously.

The door of the escort agency was almost surrounded. People said that it would be okay to take people. One hundred taels of silver per person. Pay half of it first, and then pay the remaining half on the way. When you arrive in Dengzhou in front of the capital, you will pay the final payment.

But as soon as the price was paid, 80% of the people left. I couldn't afford the money.

These people shouted that the price increase had increased tenfold.

Yu Liang couldn't make up his mind for a long time, because the three people were really one hundred taels of taels of money. The scattered silver was given to the guardian city again.

what to do?

"Let's go!" Lin Yutong said, "I hid five taels of silver and didn't take it out. There are two other decorations, which are relics left by my mother. I keep them with you. If you have this thing, you won't be afraid of starving to death when you arrive at the place."

Shao Hua also took out a small gold nugget weighing about two cents from the corner of her clothes, which had to be two taels of silver. In addition, there was a pair of silver bracelets in her hand, "Life is important."

Yu Liang gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's go."

I gave the money quickly, and then went to the escort agency and followed the arrangements of everything. If I often walked outside, it was naturally obvious that two of the three were women. When they arranged the carriages, they did not make any arrangements. They were still a carriage, a groom and an escort, and followed the convoy. It was noon that day, and the auspicious time had arrived, and then it was out.

There were so many dozens of carriages and more than a hundred stintsmen, and then it was released.

When I got on the road, I realized that I only care about escorts, but I don’t care about your food and accommodation.

It's time to go, I have to find a way.

But there is no preparation at all, what should I do?

Others wanted to buy some dry food from the escort business, but the price of a steamed bun was 100 cents. Who can withstand this?

This is not to squeeze everyone out, it won’t be over.

It’s okay to not eat this meal in the middle, but it’s really a problem to stay in the inn at night. Either you just deal with it casually in the inn lobby, or you’re in the carriage parked outside. Or you can pay for it yourself, stay in the inn.

This kind of inn often does business as an escort agency. Once the two parties exchanged their eyes, they understood everything.

Therefore, if you want a free toilet, you have to pay one or two taels of silver. If you want a guest room, even if it is a free firewood, you will be offered to pay ten taels.

There are not ten taels of people in my family.

But the room was leaking and even rainy, so I didn't pay attention to it all the way. Shao Hua was injured and it was actually hot at night.

Lin Yutong can give medicine, but can't this be clear? At least I can invite a doctor, and Lin Yutong can replace the medicine secretly. This can't be turned out of thin air.

what to do?

At that time, only half of the money was paid, but the other half was still on it. As long as the money was on it, how could it be spent with your own family? First, take care of what happened in the future, and let’s talk about it later.

Lin Yutong whispered to Yu Liang, saying that now that we can only do this first, saving people is important.

The escort business took the doctor and the medical expenses were paid for when they were treated and the doctors were given 20 taels.

OK! Griefly, admit it.

The medicine was just boiled and hadn't been given to Shao Hua yet. It was not dawn and he urged him to get on the carriage and rush on the way.

He got on the carriage with medicine. Yu Liang lay down here and didn't wake up until noon. He had just subsided, but Yu Liang's illness came again.

Lin Yutong thought to himself that if it weren't for his arrival, the three men would have to be on the way halfway. When they catch up with this chaos, sometimes it really depends on luck.

They secretly fed Yu Liang medicine. Two hours later, before dark, their fever subsided.

I dare not eat, drink, or sleep well along the way.

The food was rough and the living was simple, but it was normal at least.

But the money I have lost every day.
