Chapter 148 Beware of Thunder
Feng Aoqing and his party did not stay in Dongtai Town, but passed by the town. The road was easy to walk on, with some villages scattered around.
However, the people in these villages seemed to be extremely wary. They neither sold things to them nor offered them accommodation, and they even prevented them from approaching the village.
This is understandable. Most people would definitely be scared when they see these exiled prisoners.
So this journey was no different from going into the mountains. Not only did I not stay in a house, I also didn't buy fresh food, and I was subjected to strange looks from the people.
Fortunately, we will be going into the mountains again soon.
"Miss, they're still following us!" An Qiao was at the rear, and came forward to report when the team stopped to rest.
"It's not about following, it's just that this is the only way to go." Feng Aoqing replied.
"Since they have horses, why don't they move faster? I think he is still coveting the lady! I'm going to kill him!" An Lei began to roll up his sleeves.
"No, Shitou, he is our amulet for a safe journey!" Mo Nanzhou stopped him with a smile.
An Lei was still not convinced. He hoped that his master would come out every day, but he didn't know where his master had gone and just didn't come.
He began to hope that something would happen. If he encountered any danger, his master would definitely appear.
"Pooh, pooh, pooh!" It didn't make sense. How could I possibly hope for Feng Aoqing to get into trouble? He quickly dismissed the thought.
"You actually spit at me, are you looking for death?" Feng Aoqing cursed.
"No, no! That! I don't have it!"
"You won't get dinner!"
"No! You can whip me! I can't skip my dinner."
Wei Qianheng was sitting in the car behind the team.
At first, Feng Aoqing thought he had left, but unexpectedly, he was waiting for the exile team to set off, and then followed the exile team. He stopped when the team stopped, and walked when the team moved.
But he did not disturb Feng Aoqing and the others again. When they rested at night, he would rest by himself in front of the fire and would not go near it.
Another Han Lang.
Yu Da in the car was very dissatisfied: "Sir, why should we suffer like this? The suffering you have endured in the past twenty years combined is not as much as that in just a few days."
"It's not hard, how can it be hard? They walk, but I still take the car!" Wei Qianheng retorted.
"Isn't this hard? I have to sleep outdoors again tonight, and you won't let me reveal my identity. Every day..."
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and catch up!"
As we were talking, we had already entered the mountain. Once we crossed the mountain, we would be able to see Qidong City.
"We've entered the mountains! We're in trouble again!" Yu Da became angrier and angrier as he spoke.
"You're going back by yourself without entering this mountain! How can you go back to Qidong without entering this mountain? Are you planning to fly back? Where are your wings? Let me see them?!" Wei Qianheng kicked him and almost kicked him out of the car.
"Take a detour! Don't go up the mountain!"
There is an official road around the mountain, but it just takes a few more days.
"Since you are like this, I have a suggestion for you." Wei Qianheng got out of the car and patted Yu Da.
"You say."
"You drive back now and take a detour! I'll take the mountain road with them back to Qidong."
"ah?!"
"When you go back, you should quit being the East Courtyard's chief steward and go take care of the laundry ladies! They're gossipy, just like you, so they're a perfect match."
When Yu Da heard this, he shut up.
"Stop talking?"
Yu Da shook his head.
"I thought you'd leveled up just by going out with me! You want to be my dad? You're even more talkative than my dad. How about I go ask the seven concubines for their opinions?!"
"Sir, stop talking. You can't say such things casually. I will listen to you. If I say another word in the future, you will let me take care of the laundry woman." Yu Da slapped himself hard.
Soon after we entered the mountain, the sky suddenly became dark and it started to rain.
Everyone worked together to stuff the child who had just gotten off the bus and was having fun back into the bus, and the grandmother was also helped into the bus.
Everyone else opened the raincoats Feng Aoqing had prepared in the car and put them on.
When Wei Qianheng saw that it was raining heavily, the team only paused for a moment and then continued moving.
"Hey! Aren't you going to take shelter from the rain?" he asked in surprise.
"Sir, I saw they had raincoats, so they were still walking," a guard replied.
"My God, how can all these old and young people, including the female relatives, get wet in the rain?! You, go quickly and invite her and the children into the car." Wei Qianheng hurriedly ordered the guards outside the car.
The man went to pass on the message.
When he came back, he still had extra raincoats on him and a few more ponchos tucked under his arms, which he distributed to the other three guards who were accompanying the carriage, as well as the servants.
"The child was already in the car. The wife didn't want to come either, and she was afraid we'd get wet, so she gave us a raincoat."
Wei Qianheng sat back in the car dejectedly.
The further we walked, the denser the trees became, and the rain seemed to be getting lighter as we walked on the forest path.
But the sky in the afternoon was as dark as night, and it was no longer suitable to walk on the unfamiliar mountain path. I was afraid that I would roll down the mountain.
So Wei Ze went forward to explore the way. When he found a suitable campsite, he came to inform everyone.
Feng Aoqing saw that this was a branch road leading down from the official road. Wei Ze said that there were several ancient trees below with large and dense crowns, which was a perfect place to rest.
"Big trees won't work!" Feng Aoqing said.
Others said this in unison.
Feng Aoqing took a look and saw that it was Wei Qianheng.
"Be careful of being struck by lightning. Did you see that lightning?" Wei Qianheng continued.
"Just walk forward from here. It will be safer if it is shorter than that tree." Feng Aoqing suggested.
So the team started moving again. Not far ahead, they found a flat area. Although there were no treetops to shelter them from the rain, there was no danger of lightning strikes.
"It's here." Feng Aoqing said, and Wei Qianheng also said at the same time.
Feng Aoqing turned her head to look at Wei Qianheng.
He didn't get in the car just now. Yu Da held an umbrella for him and followed Feng Aoqing all the way.
"Second brother, Mingyuan."
"yes."
Wei Qianheng was just about to persuade Feng Aoqing to rest in his car, because there was no shelter here from the rain, and she would definitely get gonorrhea if she stayed wet all night.
I saw Feng Aoqing was already busy.
He didn't hear what Mo Nanzhou and Mo Mingyuan said, he just waved his hand, and immediately two groups of people started moving.
"Sir, go to the car! It's all wet. I'll help you change your clothes."
"Shh!" Wei Qianheng stood under the eaves of the car, watching the exile team move.
The two groups of people went to the car and took down some items, including some sticks and some oilcloths.
One group hammered sticks into the ground while the other shook out the tarpaulin and hung it on the rack set up by the previous group.
No one spoke during the whole process, but everyone worked in perfect harmony.
While the two groups were setting up their tents, others had already gathered firewood. As soon as they finished, someone immediately built the stove, set up the pot, and lit the fire, all in one go.
Wei Qianheng nudged Yu Da: "They've been disciplined! Did you see that?! This isn't just an ordinary exile team!"
After confirming that all points of the tent were secure, Mo Mingyuan came to invite Wei Qianheng.
"Master Wei, it's very cold in the mountains at night, and you can't light a fire in your car. If you don't mind being with us rough people, bring your people in to take shelter from the rain."
Before Yu Da could answer, Wei Qianheng had already followed Mo Mingyuan away.
