Chapter 080 Maintaining Formation
On the way over the mountain, there were several more sisters from the Xue family.
The bailiff didn't say anything, thinking that it would be okay to save a rich girl from Lianzhou.
But they never saw the village again, and after they came down the mountain, they were no different from beggars.
His clothes were torn into tatters, his face and body were covered in dirt, and his original appearance was no longer recognizable.
The only thing that looked somewhat decent were the two little dolls that had barely touched the ground.
The city of Yantai is just ahead, but you can't see it yet.
Along the way, there were collapsed houses and displaced people. Some rice fields were still flooded. In some places, the water had receded, but the rice that was filling with grain had died.
There are corpses on the roadside.
Feng Aoqing checked each of them, fearing that some were still alive.
She found that most of those who had not starved to death yet were drowned. Some were locals, and some were washed over from other places.
Every time she arrived at a village, she would ask the village chief to leave some money, part of which was used to repair houses and buy food for the villagers, and part of which was used for the villagers to bury the bodies.
She repeated, "The bodies must not be left there. If an epidemic breaks out, no one will survive!"
As a result, the team naturally moved slower, and the one who was most dissatisfied was Ma Chengji.
When Feng Aoqing stopped to check the body again, he walked over quickly.
When he was only a few steps away from Feng Aoqing, he saw Han Lang looking at him with his head tilted, without saying a word.
He usually made no sound and never walked with them. Ma Chengji almost forgot about this person.
When he saw Han Lang, he paused. He still had to go back to the capital. He couldn't afford to offend this man.
Han Lang walked towards Ma Chengji, holding the two swords behind him with his hands, and whispered, "Write a letter back to Beijing!"
Ma Chengji was puzzled: "Master Han, why are you writing a letter?"
"Let your family collect the body! Do you want four or eight?"
Han Lang's voice sounded like it came from hell, and it made Ma Chengji shudder.
He gritted his teeth and retreated.
"Lord Han!" Feng Aoqing called out.
Han Lang turned around again, and the vicious look on his face was gone. Although he didn't smile, his facial expression was gentle.
"Come here." Feng Aoqing waved again.
He walked over and saw Feng Aoqing let the body out.
"He got into the water after death. The reason his skin is so white is not from blisters, but from blood loss." Feng Aoqing took a stick and lifted up the man's clothes. There was a knife wound on his chest.
"What about the people before?"
Feng Aoqing said firmly, "There is only this one."
"A soldier." Han Lang whispered. He turned over the man's palm and saw the calluses from holding a knife and a gun.
Seeing the two whispering, Mo Beiyuan walked over and Feng Aoqing immediately gave up his seat to him.
Let them figure it out.
Anyway, Han Lang is following us all the way, and we can't get anything if we don't go into Lianzhou, so we'd better stay here honestly.
It hurts so much to have people going out but not coming in! But we can’t just ignore these people.
"Qingqing, what's wrong?" Xue Jiaer ran over and stretched her neck to look.
"Apart from the dead, what else is there? It's all giants. Don't go any closer." Feng Aoqing hurriedly stopped her.
Xue Jiaer covered her mouth and stepped back. She also liked reading mystery novels and knew what the giant view looked like.
Xue Shan'er was also following behind her sister. She didn't hear what the two people said, so she stood on tiptoe to take a look. Unexpectedly, the two people had noticed it and made way for her, allowing her to see the whole thing.
This time, Xue Shan'er fell down without making a sound. Fortunately, there was Mo Nanzhou who liked to join in the fun and caught her.
He screamed louder than the woman.
"Sister-in-law! Quick! Take it!"
"Why are you screaming?! I'm not scared by her, I'm scared by you." Feng Aoqing rolled her eyes at him.
Mo Nanzhou looked around for An Jinge and whispered mysteriously, "It will be hard to explain later."
Xue Jiaer and Feng Aoqing helped Xue Shan'er away. Feng Aoqing took out some medicine and gave it to her to smell, and she woke up.
Then he threw himself to the side and started vomiting. He hadn't eaten anything, so the vomiting made him feel even worse.
"Next time, when Sister Qingqing moves forward, you should never move forward. What she sees is either injured or dead." Xue Jiaer said, patting her sister on the back.
"Well, but Sister Qingqing is also a girl, so why aren't you afraid?"
"She's a healer, and she's naturally brave."
"Oh, so she is a doctor! If I didn't know her identity, I would have thought that Sister Qingqing was the coroner beside that adult!" Xue Shan'er suddenly realized.
"Don't talk nonsense." Xue Jiaer frowned.
Feng Aoqing was not angry, she handed over the water bag.
"Shan'er, you're a young lady and don't go out often, so you don't know there are many different professions in this world. There's even a profession called 'Ji Niang' in the capital, who specializes in combing the hair of young ladies from official families for unusual occasions, such as when they get married, enter the palace, or meet their lovers."
"But no matter what profession you do, regardless of status, you all make a living by your skills," she said with a smile.
"Sister Qingqing is right. I understand Shan'er." Xue Shan'er answered very sensibly.
Feng Aoqing wanted to give money to the villagers, but Han Lang gave it to her when he saw she was busy. He also followed her example and told the villagers to bury the body.
It was afternoon now, and everyone continued walking, walking quickly, eager to get into the city.
There is an inn in the city. I don’t even want to sleep in a bed, at least I can change my clothes and take a shower.
Just as the city was right in front of us, a heavy rainstorm suddenly broke out.
But there was no place to stay around, so everyone could only move forward against the wind and rain.
The more I walked, the more I felt something was wrong. It was clearly a road, but water started to accumulate. It started at the instep, then quickly reached the ankles, and then the calves.
When I looked up again, I saw that the surrounding area was already a swamp.
"Hurry up, this is a straight road, there is a forest ahead!" Jiang Yi said.
But after walking a few steps, the water scattered the people. Those who were knocked to the ground by the water dragged down the people around them. In an instant, several people were washed away by the water.
"Pull up! Pull up your hands!" Jiang Yi shouted again. It was impossible for one person to stand steadily.
Feng Aoqing suddenly remembered what the blue friends on TV said about what kind of formation they should adopt to escape if they encounter a flood.
"You can't line up sideways, line up in a column! Look at us!" Feng Aoqing shouted loudly.
She immediately took action, placing Xue Jiaer's hand on her waist while she held onto the person in front of her, who was carrying a child covered with oilcloth on his back.
When he put his hand on it, he realized that it was not Mo Beiyuan, but Han Lang who was carrying Xingbao.
Now is not the time to worry about these things.
Then Xue Shan'er grabbed her sister, and An Jinge grabbed Xue Shan'er again.
Several of them had already maintained a certain formation, which was obviously more stable than those men holding hands.
"Hurry! Line up like them!" Jiang Yi shouted.
Everyone formed their own teams, some were long and some were short, but they were able to stand firmly at this time.
"Move slowly, don't be in a hurry!" Feng Aoqing shouted.
From the child on her back, she saw Mo Beiyuan raise his head, and there was a group of people behind him. It was so rainy, and she didn't know who it was.
"Ao Qing! Are you standing still?!" Mo Beiyuan only heard her voice and knew that it was Mo Shuyuan behind him, so he was also looking for her.
"Stand still! Carry Yuebao on your back! Don't worry about me!"
