140 Going with the flow

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Although the carriage is very spacious inside and has enough space for movement, this has become a disadvantage because it is too big and it is difficult to walk on the path.

The carriage was bumpy and uncomfortable. Liu Teng, the manager, was really glad that he didn't eat anything today, otherwise he would have vomited non-stop.

After a difficult U-turn, he walked back to the original route, but without even taking a cup of tea, the person in the lead came over again and told him that he was lost.

"Trash!" Liu Teng sat directly in the carriage and cursed, "We have just walked so far, and you can't see the road clearly again. Don't you think you are so familiar with this area that you can walk with your eyes closed?"

The leader gritted his teeth and said: "It's not a gloomy day, and the water is too strong. Many roads have been washed away..."

What's more, he didn't dare admit that they were lost.

The further forward I walked, the more I felt something was wrong. The surroundings were familiar yet unfamiliar, especially the lake that appeared over there, or... a pit? The surrounding mountains also seemed to have changed, unlike the ones that were washed away by wind and rain.

kind.

In short, I didn’t see it before coming here, so it’s very possible that I really went the wrong way.

"Then what should we do now? We are lost again, what do you think we should do?" Liu Teng cursed.

If we continue to bump like this, it will definitely be too much to bear, and seeing the weather conditions like this, with the large dark clouds coming in patches, there will probably be another heavy rain.

"I don't know," the leader said, "otherwise, sir, you can make the decision."

"Trash!" Liu Teng scolded angrily again, letting go of the hand holding the curtain and saying, "You can do whatever you want. I will get off the carriage in half an hour, otherwise you won't have to keep your head."

The rain-stained car curtain hung down, and it felt sticky to the touch. Liu Teng took a dry cloth and wiped it again and again, feeling extremely angry.

The leader had no choice but to curse inwardly several times and said, "Yes."

The cavalry re-entered the scene, headed east, then north, turned south, and then west again.

After being confused in this area for a long time, the leaders finally regained their sense of direction.

"That side should be the village we saw when we came here!" one of the leaders said happily.

At that time, I was passing by this place far away, and I didn't want to stop. What I wanted to do was to speed up and rush to another village ahead.

The companion held the torch and shone it faintly towards the left front. The steep slope and river there seemed to be very similar.

"Then go quickly!" the companion shouted.

The cavalry headed out towards the slope, but the road became increasingly difficult.

Several of the horses could no longer move, and they were forced to pull, not wanting to get on.

The leading men had no choice but to get down, holding torches in one hand and pulling the reins in the other.

A few others were holding thick branches in their hands and testing the depth of the puddle in front.

When we reached a steeply sloping earthen step, the branches hit a large obstacle and were piled up to half a person's height.

Everyone was annoyed, and one of the leaders had to go back to the carriage: "Sir, the road ahead is blocked, and it's difficult for your carriage to pass."

"Dig it up!" Liu Teng shouted without thinking.

"Sir, this..." the leader said in embarrassment.

Liu Teng frowned, opened the curtain in front, glanced at the rapid water under the carriage, and said, "What should I do? Shall I get out?"

"I can only...you come down."

Liu Teng raised his head and looked uphill by the firelight around him. He paused and walked out of the carriage impatiently.

The coachman also came down, pulled the carriage, and led it to the other side.

"Is there a place to stay up there?" Liu Teng asked.

He was already standing in the water, holding up his pants in vain.

The water was up to my knees, and the mud and rocks that washed down poured into my pants and shoes, making me feel uncomfortable.

"Yes, sir." The subordinate replied.

"If there is no heavy rain later, look at what I will do to you!" Liu Teng shouted.

Although the sky is dark now, it is still early and far away from the time to stay and rest.

Liu Teng was filled with anger at the thought of wasting another half of his time.

"Can these things stop them?" Zhi Changle asked the big man next to him in a low voice.

The big man was the one with the knife on his back. Hearing this, he glanced at Zhi Changle and said in a low voice, "You're still here to ask me?"

Zhi Changle continued to push rocks and soil into the flowing water and said, "It's just a question, why don't you ask me?"

As he said that, he raised his head and looked around in the darkness: "I don't know where Ah Li went. Where is Ah Li."

"That's where she went just now." The big man pointed to the other side.

Zhi Changle looked over and saw nothing but the river.

No, Zhi Changle suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked straight over there, wondering if he had seen it wrong.

A small figure was soaking in the river, holding a big stone beside the river with both hands, looking at something unknown.

"What is this Ah Li going to do..." Zhi Changle whispered in surprise.

The big man pushed large pieces of mud and vegetation into the water with both hands, and then looked over. His eyesight was not as good as Zhi Changle's, and he couldn't see anything.

At this time, the group of people below were coming up from a distance, and it was really hard to hold the horses in their hands.

Zhi Changle looked back at the river on the other side, and suddenly found that the little figure had disappeared.

"Where's Ah Li!" Zhi Changle called softly.

The big man next to him ignored it and continued to push things, leaning slightly sideways, in a posture where he could hold the short knife behind him with his backhand at any time.

Zhi Changle looked at the group of people below and then at the river over there. Although his hands never stopped, he felt really anxious.

Although it is difficult for these people to walk, they are moving forward after all. The distance is only about fifty feet, and they will be here in a short time.

Thinking of the piles of corpses he had seen without their skulls, Zhi Changle even felt his hands trembling while pushing the stones.

The firelight got closer and closer as they moved forward.

The big man got up from the ground, lowered his back and said, "Let's go."

Zhi Changle looked towards the river on the other side again, feeling uneasy and just as he was about to get up, there was suddenly a sharp scream of a horse from below.

But the horse at the end stood up and struggled like crazy. The man holding it hurriedly tried to stabilize it and almost didn't get thrown out.

The horses in front were also frightened, their hooves were trampling back and forth, restlessly.

"What happened!" Liu Teng turned around and shouted.

The man was still calming the horse. Before he could reply, he heard the driver's scream from further behind.

The driver sitting on the carriage was startled by the sound of the horse above him. He was about to lean over and look up, but a girl swam out of the water from nowhere. She suddenly emerged from the water, reached out and climbed onto the carriage neatly, and raised her hand.

He stabbed him in the thigh and pushed him into the water while he was in pain.

The speed was so fast that he did it in one go, so fast that he didn't even bother to resist.

After rolling into the water with a plop, he finally got up in embarrassment, but the sound of a horse could be heard in his ears.

He opened his eyes wide and looked at the carriage running away along the water.

This, what is going on?

Their carriage was snatched away alive right under their noses?
