Yun Ruoxi took out the things and helped everyone install them. After they were installed, she taught everyone how to use them.
Originally, the wooden boat was much faster than the raft, so the people behind just watched the people from the big house jumping on each boat.
Xiao Qingyu had a bad feeling in his heart, always feeling that the people in the first house must be up to something.
So he stared at the person in front of him without blinking. Xiao Qingyu saw the propeller motor that Yun Ruoxi took out from the cabin, but he didn't recognize it.
After everyone had packed up their things, Yun Ruoxi stood at the stern of the boat, looking at Xiao Qingyu who was staring at them, with a meaningful smile on her face.
Immediately afterwards, Dafang's five wooden boats suddenly began to accelerate, and a roar was heard in the water.
Xiao Qingyu just watched the Xiao family's eldest branch's boat sail away quickly, without giving them any time to wait.
"How is this possible? How can it be so fast?"
Xiao Qingyu was stunned, and even Li Ergou beside him had a dazed look on his face.
Thinking about the plan that had not yet been implemented, Li Ergou was also very angry, "No, why did they leave?"
Xiao Qingyu was in a bad mood and ignored Li Ergou, sitting down aside.
Their raft was very simple and no one had a good bath during the journey.
Let alone eating, because the flood is too dirty and cooking is not practical.
Fortunately, they caught a lot of rainwater at the beginning, so they could hold on for a while.
However, the containers are limited and the stored rainwater is little. If we use it for cooking, there will not be enough water.
So during this period, everyone ate the dry food that was packed in the package at the beginning.
Because the dry food was wrapped in oilcloth, it was not soaked in water or exposed to rain, so it was still edible, but there was not much left.
I originally thought that if I caught up with the people from the eldest wife's house, I would be able to get some food no matter what. After all, we are family.
As a result, the people from the first house ran away before the plan was even started. How could Xiao Qingyu be in a good mood?
There was also Xiao Qinghe, the legitimate daughter of the second house. Seeing Xiao Qingyu's frustrated look, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
During this period of time, Xiao Qingyu found an opportunity to save face in front of his father.
Xiao Qinghe is the legitimate daughter, but her father always praises Xiao Qingyu and lets her, the legitimate daughter, learn from the concubine's daughter.
They had been feeling very angry these days, and now there was a beggar who kept trying to please them.
She is the legitimate daughter of the second branch of the Xiao family, so naturally she cannot lower her status. Not everyone can curry favor with her.
Even though the Xiao family is now in decline, she, Xiao Qinghe, is not someone who can be climbed up by just anyone.
Xiao Qinghe had a clear understanding of her position from the beginning, so when she first saw Li Ergou, she hid far away and did not give the other party any chance at all.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, Li Ergou became attached to Xiao Qingyu. Although Xiao Qinghe was not interested in him, this country boy kept wandering around on their Xiao family's raft.
It was mainly that lustful look that made Xiao Qinghe feel sick, so she simply hid in the tent on the raft.
This small tent is made of oilcloth and is not spacious. It can only be used to block the view and change clothes.
When it’s time to rest at night, all the female members of the family can hide inside and sleep without being seen by outsiders.
The people from the first house ran away, and everyone from the second house of the Xiao family saw it. Xiao Bin now had a gloomy face, and it was hard to guess what he was thinking.
Yun Ruoxi felt a little better when she saw the raft behind her moving farther and farther away.
Mu Ruxue came over and held Yun Ruoxi's arm, and said coquettishly: "Xixi, can you rest assured now? Without the people from the second house following us and disturbing us, the air feels much fresher."
Yun Ruoxi nodded. "I do feel a lot better now. I just hope the people from the second house won't come after me anymore. It's so annoying."
Xiao Jingrui said, "Our ship is moving very fast now. It will be extremely difficult for them to catch up. Maybe when we find the Hundred Mountains and the floods recede, we can leave Yongzhou directly."
Yun Ruoxi: "I hope so!"
She always had a feeling in her heart that things would not go so smoothly.
A propeller was installed on the boat, and everyone came out and stood at the bow and stern, carefully feeling the wind blowing across their cheeks.
Because it was something I had never seen before, I was a little interested in it. But after a while, the novelty wore off and everyone continued to do what they were doing.
Thanks to the advent of the propeller, everyone no longer has to row manually, and they had time to chat.
So, whenever everyone got the chance, they would sit cross-legged and meditate, practicing diligently.
During this period, everyone was either on the road or fighting natural disasters, and had no time to calm down and practice or cultivate martial arts.
Now that their hands were finally free, everyone sat on the boat and practiced quietly.
Sure enough, too much has been accumulated during this period of time. Now that we have calmed down and practiced, basically everyone has made breakthroughs to varying degrees.
Yun Ruoxi and Mu Ruxue were not willing to lag behind, and the two best friends started practicing magic.
He put his martial arts skills aside and held the spirit stone in his hand, ready to absorb it whenever he had time.
The results were naturally significant. After absorbing spiritual energy day and night, Yun Ruoxi finally absorbed more than a dozen pieces of spiritual food into powder, and her cultivation finally reached the first level of Qi Refining.
Mu Ruxue also reached the stage of drawing Qi into the body with great difficulty.
Originally, Mu Ruxue started practicing later than Yun Ruoxi, and Mu Ruxue had not had the opportunity to enter the space.
Yun Ruoxi also took advantage of the time difference in the space, which was equivalent to two years of cultivation in the outside world.
Calculated in this way, Yun Ruoxi didn’t think her talent was that good, she just had a golden finger in her hand.
After the breakthrough in cultivation, everyone's mood improved a lot. Yun Ruoxi took out a dozen large watermelons, and everyone sat happily on the bow of the boat to eat fruit.
With the propeller, no one could catch up with their wooden boats at a speed that no one could catch up with.
Sometimes we would meet some refugees on the road, but we didn’t even give them a chance to talk before the boat sailed away.
By the time their fleet saw the Hundred Mountains, many refugees had already set up camp on some of the nearby mountains.
When Yun Ruoxi saw the mountain with people on it, she gave up immediately.
She didn't want to go to a crowded place. Their five wooden boats had already attracted a lot of people's attention when they came.
It is obvious that they are a big fat sheep. No matter which mountain they go to, there will always be people who are eyeing their things.
Yun Ruoxi was too lazy to engage in intrigue with these people, so she thought about walking to the back to see if there were any empty mountains, or just walking out of Yongzhou directly.
