Chapter 134 Which way to go



The situation outside is getting worse and worse. Just looking at the scene just now, no one tried to stop it, which shows that everyone outside has gotten used to it.

Pei Yu also put on a mask, of course, it was made by Tianqing. He was quite curious when he saw it. Later, after they set out on the road together, Chen Li gave him one and asked him to study it himself.

Pei Yu looked at it carefully and thought that this thing called "mask" was very clever. Why had he never seen it before? It seemed that Miss Shen had many wonderful ideas. This was the biggest difference between her and others.

After handing it over to Tianqing, it was made very quickly.

Tianqing looked at the mask in his hand with satisfaction. He felt that if he followed his master out a few more times, he would be able to take over the position of the almighty Uncle Fu's butler when he returned.

"Master Wei, do you know how long it will take us to leave Jingzhou?"

Pei Yu pondered for a moment, "At this rate, it will take another 5 days."

"After Jingzhou, there's Luozhou. The drought situation there is slightly better than in Jingzhou, but too many refugees are pouring into Luozhou now. We'll have to wait and see what the specific situation is."

“After arriving in Luozhou, I wonder which direction Miss Shen will choose to go?”

Chen Li frowned and thought, after arriving in Luozhou, he could pass through Qingzhou or Wujun and soon reach Suzhou.

"I do have a suggestion. We can go through Qingzhou. Although there was a flood in Qingzhou, the water has receded now, and the victims have been properly resettled."

"And you don't have to worry about water supply from there. It's just that they just experienced a disaster, so prices might be a bit high."

Chen Li nodded, "That's understandable. After all, there are disasters everywhere right now, and prices in other places aren't much cheaper."

Hearing what he said, it seems that having experienced Qingzhou is quite good, but...

"Why not go through Wujun?"

Although Wu County was only a county, its scope was no smaller than other places, and it had not experienced any disasters.

Pei Yu knew she would ask this, and explained with a smile: "Miss Shen has already understood the situation along the way. As far as I know, 80% of the refugees now choose to pass through Wujun. Do you think this is a good idea?"

Chen Li shook her head. If too many refugees poured in and the situation became too chaotic and difficult to manage, local officials would likely take extreme measures.

"Is the situation in Qingzhou really as Master Wei described?"

Pei Yu nodded. "Of course, we are acting together now. Besides, deceiving you won't do me any good, will it?"

"If Miss Shen is still worried about the previous plague, there is no need to worry. The plague-stricken prefectures and counties, including Qingzhou, were already resolved three months ago."

He didn't say that he had to go through Qingzhou, but just analyzed the pros and cons of both sides to Chen Li and let her make her own choice.

Too many refugees have poured into Wujun, causing not only chaos in prices but also confusion. In comparison, Qingzhou, which has fewer people, is more suitable for their journey.

Chen Li nodded, not doubting what he said. According to the speed of the spread of the plague, if it was not properly controlled, then Jingzhou where they were now would only become more chaotic.

"I'll discuss it with them."

"good."

Chen Li rode away from Pei Yu's carriage. Although his analysis made sense, she hadn't figured it out for a while.

As of now, the plague has spread to Suzhou. It is said that there is a miracle doctor in Suzhou City, so the epidemic was brought under control so quickly.

The situation was not explained to them immediately. They left the forest in the afternoon, having traveled for more than two hours and overtaken many groups of refugees.

At night, we saw a village on both sides of the official road and everyone chose to go there to rest.

The village was neither big nor small, and not only did they choose to settle down here, Shen Changshan also found a main house with four rooms in a row, and the yard was relatively intact. They had many people and livestock, so they needed a big yard to live in.

Moreover, there are houses on both sides of the yard, which look relatively intact. If Master Wei doesn't want to squeeze here, he can take his men to the side.

Shen Zhenyuan's family and Dr. Liu's family chose the courtyard on the left. As Shen Changshan expected, Pei Yu did not go in, but chose a thatched house on the right.

Chen Li took off her mask, changed it, put the two sides of the removed mask together, and then patted the dust off the outside of the mask.

The speed was fast today. Except for the first carriage, the people behind were almost all eating dust, especially her since she was riding on a horse. When she brushed off her body, it was covered with dust.

It was okay to sit in the carriage. They opened the window and let in some dust.

There is no dead grass in this yard. The ground is compacted by mud, which is now cracked into a network of pieces. If you are not careful when walking, you will trip and get a mouthful of mud.

Everyone walked a lot more lightly, especially when cooking, as they didn't want to end up eating a pot of mud.

After dinner, Chen Li called several families together, told them what Pei Yu said today, and then waited for their decision.

After hearing this, Shen Changshan thought that if the situation in Qingzhou improved, it would really be much easier to go there.

"Ali, I think it's a good idea to go to Qingzhou. What do you think?"

Lin Hu also nodded, "I think we can go that way too. There's no shortage of water. As for food, we still have it. At worst, we can just save some food."

Doctor Liu nodded and said that it was okay to go through Qingzhou. Shen Zhenyuan lowered his head and thought, between two evils, choose the lesser one, and going through Qingzhou is indeed the best way at the moment.

"A-Li, going through Qingzhou is indeed beneficial to us. What do you think?"

Chen Li played an important role in their team. Although she did not show up directly most of the time, everyone already knew her after being on the road together for so long.

Chen Li himself was indeed tempted to go to Qingzhou. There were too many refugees pouring into Wujun. Not only were prices high and the situation chaotic, but even the things in the mountains and forests would be greatly reduced.

So, as it stands now, going to Qingzhou is indeed the best choice.

"Then we will tentatively go to Qingzhou."

"good."

Hearing this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He didn't intend to cover up the voice next to him, and with his skills, he probably couldn't cover it up at such a close distance.

He bent his slender fingers and tapped his brow. These two words "tentative" were probably meant specifically for himself.

Well, it’s normal to be a little cautious when you’re out, especially as a woman.

This is a good thing.

If Tianqing knew what his master was thinking, he would probably complain in his heart.

All those girls who had acted cunningly in front of him before were embarrassed by him and blushed.

This Miss Shen probably received such treatment because she saved her master.
