Chapter 36 Refugees Capture the County Government Office
In fact, there are two most important reasons.
One is that the remaining poison in his body has not been cleared yet. If he wants to save his life, it is best for him to stay with Doctor Xue, and Doctor Xue wants to leave with Zhou Yunshu.
The second reason is that Zhou Yunshu and Mr. Xue both said that Anshan County was dangerous. Even though he didn't think so, his intuition told him that it was always right to follow smart people!
"Of course." Zhou Yunshu said with a smile.
What reason did she have to refuse? After all, the joining of Manager Liang would definitely bring a lot of water.
It was Wei Zhong who followed Manager Liang to the courtyard to carry water and move things, but Zhou Yunshu did not go.
Less than half an hour after Wei Zhong and Manager Liang left, Doctor Xue and his apprentice Qingfeng arrived in two mule carts.
Although Dr. Xue is almost sixty years old, he is still in good health and can drive a mule cart with ease.
When Doctor Xue and his companion drove the mule cart to the door of the inn, Wei Zhong specially left behind two men to protect Zhou Yunshu. One of them stayed with Zhou Yunshu, and the other went to help Doctor Xue park the mule cart.
Doctor Xue walked into the inn and saw that Zhou Yunshu had not yet rested, so he said, "Let me take your pulse to see if you are safe."
Zhou Yunshu smiled and said, "Okay."
When Doctor Xue touched Zhou Yunshu's wrist, he felt the clear, slippery pulse and his eyes widened in disbelief.
How is that possible!
Doctor Xue was not surprised that Zhou Yunshu was pregnant, but was surprised that Zhou Yunshu could leave Prince Wei's Mansion even though she was pregnant.
In his memory, Ji Sheng was a powerful person with a strong desire for control. He was a person who could not tolerate any ingratitude and was extremely protective of his own shortcomings. How could such a person allow his wife, who was pregnant with twins, to leave the palace?
Zhou Yunshu didn't wait for Doctor Xue to speak before asking, "Doctor Xue, am I okay?"
"No problem." Doctor Xue frowned, "You know you..."
"I know."
Zhou Yunshu smiled and said, "That's why I need you by my side."
Doctor Xue nodded slowly. After learning that Zhou Yunshu was pregnant, he wanted to know what had happened in the Zhou family.
"It's getting late, you should go back to your room and rest."
Although Dr. Xue had a lot of questions to ask, Zhou Yunshu was pregnant and had traveled such a long distance, and she finally had a night to rest well, so Dr. Xue didn't want to waste her energy.
Just like Zhou Yunshu said, there is a long way to go and plenty of time.
Zhou Yunshu did feel a little tired. There were many rooms on the second floor of the inn. Zhou Yunshu found a cleaner one and lay down in her clothes.
Doctor Xue slept in the room next to Zhou Yunshu, while the man left by Wei Zhong stood motionlessly outside Zhou Yunshu's door.
This was an order from their boss, who had to stay by Zhou Yunshu's side to protect her.
Zhou Yunshu was awakened by a loud noise. When she opened her eyes, there was a knock on the door.
Zhou Yunshu pinched her forehead with her hand. She had a severe headache, probably because she was still sleepy.
But even so, she responded to the increasingly rapid knocks on the door: "Coming."
Zhou Yunshu pushed open the door. Outside was Wei Zhong, who had just returned from carrying water. He had a serious expression on his face, his throat slightly tightened. "Mr. Zhou, the city gate has been taken down by refugees."
Zhou Yunshu was actually right!
"Now all the refugees are rushing to the county government office. After the county government office falls, it won't be long before other parts of the city fall. We have to leave quickly!"
Zhou Yunshu nodded, "Are you all ready?"
"Manager Liang and his family haven't arrived yet."
"Get ready first. If he doesn't arrive in a quarter of an hour, we'll leave on our own."
"good."
When Zhou Yunshu was walking downstairs, Doctor Xue was also walking downstairs with the help of his apprentice.
Seeing that Doctor Xue was half asleep, Zhou Yunshu was worried that he might have a weak immune system due to his age, so she said to Wei Zhong, who had been following her, "Find someone to drive the mule cart for Doctor Xue."
"good."
"Have we got our water?"
Wei Zhong nodded. Fortunately, they did not wait until dawn to get water, otherwise the buckets of water used to put out the fire would have been wasted.
The people Zhou Yunshu brought into the city this time were very efficient. Except for Doctor Xue's mule cart, all their carts filled with water were parked on the side of the road, and on both sides of the carts were men holding long knives.
"What a pity, we didn't buy any food."
I was so busy buying water that I didn't buy any food.
Zhou Yunshu looked up at the lights that were lit up everywhere in Anshan County before dawn, and an idea flashed through her mind.
However, this somewhat evil thought was suppressed by her as soon as it arose.
It’s not that her moral bottom line is so high, but because she is not familiar with Anshan County. If she delays and encounters those refugees who are crazy about grabbing, and accidentally spills water or hurts people, it will be a waste of time.
But Zhou Yunshu's words were heard by Du Mazi, who had been paying attention to her.
He approached Zhou Yunshu and said, "Mr. Zhou, the county government's granary is not in the same place. I know where it is. Why don't we..."
"Is it far?"
Du Mazi's eyes lit up, "Not far! There are two carts behind the inn!"
Zhou Yunshu glanced at the people around her and said to Du Mazi, "I'll go with you."
The two carts couldn't carry much, but she had enough space.
"Mr. Zhou!" Wei Zhong looked at Zhou Yunshu disapprovingly. "The city is in chaos and danger right now. You can't leave my side!"
Zhou Yunshu listened to Wei Zhong's slightly commanding tone and said, "I'm not asking for your opinion."
"If you're worried about my safety, you can stay by my side. If you just want to restrict my freedom..." Zhou Yunshu looked at Wei Zhong, "We can break up."
Wei Zhong looked at Zhou Yunshu, swallowed his saliva, and said very tactfully, "I'll stay with you."
His original duty was to protect Zhou Yunshu.
Zhou Yunshu turned to Du Laoer and said, "I don't know how long the food in the team can last. Now that I have the opportunity, I don't want to let it go."
Although this sentence was said to Du Laoer, it also explained why Zhou Yunshu had to get food.
What will we eat if we don’t make food?
When Doctor Xue saw that Zhou Yunshu was not with them, he lifted the car curtain and looked at her and said, "Yunshu, you..."
"Doctor Xue, Second Brother Du will take you to the team. He will then take you directly to my mother." Zhou Yunshu looked at the sky, which was beginning to turn blue. "Leave now while the mob is too busy to pay attention to the city gate."
Seeing that Zhou Yunshu had made up her mind, Doctor Xue patted his disciple beside him and said, "Qingfeng, go and protect Yunshu's safety."
Qingfeng didn't say anything, jumped off the shaft of the cart with a smile and walked to Zhou Yunshu's side.
"Xue..."
Doctor Xue waved his hand and said, "I feel relieved to have him stay with you."
Zhou Yunshu did not refuse again. After all, it was Dr. Xue's good intention.
Time waits for no one. When Zhou Yunshu and her companions were about to leave, Manager Liang and his family finally arrived.
Manager Liang and his group drove a total of eight vehicles, five of which were carts and three were carts with carriages.
Manager Liang was sitting on the shaft of the front carriage. When he saw Zhou Yunshu and others at the door, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that he would be too late and Zhou Yunshu and others would have left.
The reason why he came so late was that he wanted to persuade his brothers to leave with him, but in the end he only persuaded two brothers. His eldest brother insisted on staying in Anshan County and refused to leave no matter what.
There was no choice but for him to take his brothers home and pack their luggage.
Facts proved that his choice was right. Just as they had packed their luggage and belongings, they heard deafening shouts from the direction of the city gate, and then the city gate caught fire. Manager Liang did not dare to hesitate at all. He immediately picked up his little son and threw him into the carriage and rushed to the inn.
Fortunately, fortunately.
"Mr. Zhou."
Shopkeeper Liang looked at Zhou Yunshu and saw how attentively she was calling him. He felt that she would be his close friend from now on.
Zhou Yunshu nodded and briefly explained to Manager Liang that she wanted to separate from the team.
After hearing this, Shopkeeper Liang immediately said, "Mr. Zhou, you can let my third brother follow you. He is familiar with the county and can definitely help you!"
