Chapter 115: Meeting an Old Man

Shuangxi said with a cold face: "Get out of your way!" You can't lose your momentum at this time. If you act submissive, you will be easily bullied!

"Hey, she has a shrewd temperament, but I like girls like this the best!" As he said this, a naughty girl licked her lips and reached out to grab Double Happiness with a lewd smile on her face.

At this moment, the rogue suddenly shouted: "Ouch!"

Then he cursed: "Who dares to ruin my good deeds!"

A boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a cold face, stood next to Shuangxi, turning half of his body to protect Shuangxi.

Of course these ruffians would not be convinced when they saw that there was only one person. The one who had just been hit on the arm was filled with anger, inciting everyone to fight against Shui Sheng!

"Big guy, catch him blind! I have to give him a good beating!" the ruffian who was beaten just now yelled.

Shuangxi looked at Shui Sheng worriedly, and she was confused by concern. At this time, she had forgotten that Shui Sheng was an escort and had great skills. It was very simple to deal with these rogues.

Shuisheng didn't say anything, but with a cold face, he moved quickly, raised his feet and waved his arms, and beat several rogues to the ground.

"Get out!" Shui Sheng said coldly.

Those few scoundrels no longer dared to provoke the aquatic creature, so they got up from the ground on their hands and knees and ran away quickly.

Shuisheng turned around and looked at Shuangxi and said, "Are you okay?"

Shuangxi shook her head. She didn't know how to express her gratitude. This single thank you was not enough to express her gratitude.

Shuisheng looked at Shuangxi with clear eyes and said, "Xi'er, I'd better go with you to find someone." His tone was unquestionable, leaving Shuangxi unable to decide.

Shuangxi nodded gently, thinking about it, if she went to look for people alone, she might be lost before she could find Ziyan and the others.

I thought in my heart that I would repay Shui Sheng well when I found Shen Ziyan, but I didn't know that Shui Sheng didn't want those things outside of him.

The entire Qingshan County was divided into several parts by the flood, and the highland where Shuangxi and the others stayed was only a part of the population.

Shuangxi searched for a long time but could not find any man, which made her even more anxious.

Shuisheng said comfortingly: "Don't worry. Ziyan and the others all grew up in the mountains. Which boy in the village doesn't know how to swim? They should have just been washed away."

Shuangxi nodded, feeling a little relieved.

One wave came after another, and at noon, some people began to have a high fever.

It's not just one or two people. It doesn't seem to be an ordinary cold, but an infectious disease similar to influenza.

Shuangxi was stunned. There was water in all directions, and there was no medicinal material to be found in this open space. Many people became anxious.

Maybe it's because Shuangxi just had a fever yesterday, and Shuangxi's physical condition is now much better than before. Shuangxi is not sick this time.

In the blink of an eye, it was the next day. A large number of people fell ill...

The sky cleared up at this time, and the sun began to shine. The air was humid and hot, which made those who were already sick feel even worse.

Shuangxi looked at the endless water, and her heart couldn't calm down for a long time. As time went by, even if she negotiated, she couldn't help but worry.

"It's Master Liu! Master Liu is here!" Following a shout from the crowd, everyone looked at the man standing on the boat.

Liu Yi was still wearing the moon-white robe, which was covered in mud.

The mud stuck to his body, not only did it not make people feel that he was embarrassed, but it made him have a temperament that was untainted by the mud, making him more noble and holy.

Liu Yi was followed by several government officials, also rowing the same boat.

Shuangxi wanted to go up and say hello to Liu Yi, and ask him if he had seen Shen Ziyan and the others. It was really a joy to meet acquaintances under such circumstances.

Shuangxi was not the only one who was happy, the people were even more happy. When they saw Liu Yi, it was as if they saw a life-saving straw. They rushed forward desperately, trying to get on the boat.

Shuangxi staggered due to the crowd. Shuisheng, who was standing next to her, stretched out a hand and held Shuangxi firmly.

Feeling the strong point on her waist, Shuangxi's face froze, a little embarrassed and unnatural, but the crowded crowd around her could push her down again at any time and step on her feet... The day when she got wet

The tragic experience made Shuangxi really afraid of this crazy crowd.

So Shuangxi had no choice but to bite his lip and did not push Shuisheng away.

There were more and more people, and the crazy crowd kept squeezing each other. Shuangxi's foot was stepped on by someone unknown, and he let out a cry of pain.

Shuisheng glanced at Shuangxi, then fished it out with all his strength, and pulled Shuangxi into his arms. He hugged Shuangxi tightly and used his own body to form the most stable shield for Shuangxi.

Liu Yi came here this time, of course, to solve the flood problem. Those boats were also used to transport these people out.

The county guard had already taken his family members to hide in a safe place. If it weren't for Liu Yi, many people would have died of starvation.

Liu Yi is a good official who is worthy of people's trust, and his compassionate aura is so confusing that people are willing to believe from the bottom of their hearts that Liu Yi will save them. That's why everyone is so crazy after seeing Liu Yi.

.

"Everyone, please be quiet!" Fifteen, who was punting the boat, shouted loudly. He was a martial arts practitioner after all. The voice was probably filled with inner energy, and the shout resounded through the sky.

After seeing Shi Fifteen, Shuang Xi was not worried about Cuiping's family. How could she, a weak woman, face a natural disaster!

Fifteen shouted, and everyone paused for a moment, but then people continued to push forward, and the person at the front had already stepped into the water.

At a time like this, how can people be organized and disciplined? How can people listen to Fifteen's words?

Fifteen looked coldly and shouted: "If you do this again, I will take my young master away and let you wait here to die!"

Someone in the crowd retorted: "We are going to die, how can you explain to the court?"

These people were sure that Liu Yi would save them, so they said this.

Of course Fifteen would not just admit defeat. He sneered and said: "You will starve to death here in a few days in this open space. Then tell the court that the water is too big and there is no time to save. Who will

Doubtful? Even if someone escapes, who can go up to heaven to listen?"

The last sentence made everyone fall into silence.

They escaped and reported the poor disaster relief, but someone has to be willing to spread the word, and the officials will protect each other... Maybe they will lose their heads for no reason before they can accomplish anything!

Fifteen's actions of not caring about human life actually intimidated the restless crowd.

Only then did Liu Yi speak: "The young and middle-aged men will come out first and take the place of the yamen servants in rowing, and the women, children, old and weak will leave first!"

Seeing what Liu Yi said, coupled with what Shi Shifeng had just said, was too terrifying, these people gradually calmed down and waited for Liu Yi's arrangements.

After a while, several small boats left, carrying government officials. These government officials wanted to watch the boat. It was impossible for anyone to see the boat and want to find their family members, and then row the boat away secretly.

.

It's not wrong to look for relatives, but there are a large number of refugees here to save. Liu Yi knows that at this time, in order to allow more people to survive, only a small number of people have to be sacrificed!

The boats were not big, and they were used to fish for water chestnuts. Of course, they could not hold many people. They were going back and forth, and by the afternoon, only a few people were left.

Shuangxi hadn't left yet... Because there were not many people around, it was easy for Shuangxi to come to Liu Yi's side.

Liu Yi frowned at this moment, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart. His eyes looked at the turbid water, filled with deep worry.

"Brother Liu." Suddenly, a clear and melodious voice sounded, awakening Liu Yi from his thoughts.

Liu Yi looked towards the source of the sound in disbelief, and saw Shuangxi dressed in green, looking at him with a wistful expression. Her clothes were covered with mud, and her hair was messy. She was so smart in the past.

His eyes were filled with sorrow at this moment.

Where is the Shuangxi that still has a natural charm, agility and nobility?

Liu Yi felt a pain in her heart when she saw Shuangxi like this. She just wanted to hold Shuangxi in her arms and protect her carefully.

At this moment, he glanced to the side of Shuangxi and saw the handsome young man, about fifteen or sixteen years old. At this moment, he was looking at Shuangxi seriously, with forbearance and protection in his eyes.

This caused an inexplicable emotion to flow through Liu Yi's heart. Who is he? Why is he standing next to Shuangxi?

Shuangxi felt a little embarrassed when he saw that Liu Yi didn't answer, his eyes seemed to be looking at Shui Sheng... Is he just unwilling to look at him again? He thought that the matter was over, but now he encountered such a disaster...

He would put this matter aside temporarily, but to his surprise, he still hated himself so much.

Shuangxi never thought that when Liu Yi looked at Shui Sheng, he didn't deliberately divert his gaze at all, but he really felt something bad in his heart.

Liu Yi finally came to her senses, because the young man who appeared inexplicably next to Shuangxi felt a little unhappy. His tone that should have been concerned became calm: "Xi'er, are you okay?"

Shuangxi nodded, only thinking of Liu Yi's indifferent concern and of course the official greeting, he naturally didn't make any waves in his heart. He thought in his heart that since Liu Yi deliberately avoided him, there was no need for him to make others uncomfortable.

She did not dare to look directly at Liu Yi, raised her eyebrows and asked: "Brother Liu, have you seen Ziyan and the others?"

Liu Yi knew that Shuangxi was worried about them, but he still shook his head helplessly and said, "I've never seen them before."

Shuangxi felt dejected and sad. At this moment, she could no longer care about the inexplicable feelings between her and Liu Yi, nor was she entangled in the awkward atmosphere between her and Liu Yi.

Because at this moment, her heart was filled with only worry.

Where are they... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
