Small peasant girl in space: under the fence of the flower field

Chapter 102 Frightened
The bamboo forest is very quiet, and the sound of birds can be heard. It is still in the afternoon, and there is still a long time before it gets dark.

Hua Xiaoqiao was very worried: "How long are we going to wait here?"

Sitting here always feels terrified and completely hopeless.

The driver shook his head and said that he didn't know how long he would have to wait here, but he still comforted him and said, "Don't worry, they won't find us with a radius of tens of miles. I'll go to the woods and see if there is a cave on the cliff We don’t need to spend the night in the bamboo forest at night.”

It's very humid and easy to get sick outside, and you don't feel safe at all.

Hua Xiaoqiao was afraid. She usually looked at the wind and fire, but now she was still a little timid.

"I'll go with you."

Looking at the coachman worriedly, he wanted to follow behind the coachman.

The coachman sighed and led the horse: "Let's go together, and we can take care of each other. Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you."

He also has a daughter and a grandson himself, and Hua Xiaoqiao was introduced by Shopkeeper He, who has always helped him. He is not an ungrateful person, so when others trust him, he must be worthy of others' trust.

Hua Xiaoqiao was very grateful for what the coachman had done for her. Thinking about it, she didn't even know the coachman's name, so she asked, "I don't know what the uncle's last name is. Can you tell me, at least let me know?" your name."

The coachman led the horse and walked in front, and when Hua Xiaoqiao asked, he turned around and laughed: "You can call me Uncle Chen, people outside call me the third child, because I am the third child at home."

"Uncle Chen, thank you. If it weren't for you, something might have happened to me." What she said was true. She knew this matter very well. Something is wrong, I'm afraid it has already entered the gourd mouth.

So now all that awaits them is death, that group of people killed without blinking an eye, when she left just now, she saw the corpse lying in a pool of blood.

She never imagined that the outside world would be so chaotic.

Uncle Chen smiled wryly: "I also feel that there is something wrong with that escort's eyes. Fortunately, I am a little more careful. The most important thing when walking outside is to be careful. I have been walking all these years and I can't escape the word "careful."

These words are also reminding Hua Xiaoqiao.

Uncle Chen changed the subject and asked: "By the way, shopkeeper He said that he went to Chu's house to do business?"

Hua Xiaoqiao let out a "hmm".

"The Chu family can be regarded as a big and noble family in Tongzhou City. If you go to do things there, you can have a bright future as long as you take good care of it."

He was also envious, after all, if he went there, he might be able to make a brilliant career, and he might be able to be an aunt, but these words were buried in his heart and he didn't say them out.

Hua Xiaoqiao smiled wryly: "I don't know the future, I just feel that if I stay at home, I will not be happy, so I want to go out and venture out. Shopkeeper He is a good person and has helped me a lot."

The two didn't know the way, so they could only move forward by groping. They didn't find the way up the mountain and could only explore by themselves. Fortunately, the road was very flat, and there was a horse walking ahead to open the way, so it was much easier for them to walk behind.

"I'm actually a little bit scared that they'll find us," she said with uneasiness.

Speaking of fear, Chen Laosan is also afraid, but he is an adult and now Hua Xiaoqiao's only spiritual support, not to mention that Hua Xiaoqiao can survive until now without crying or fussing and still be so strong, it is really good, change another He's not sure he can do better than Hua Xiaoqiao.

The two walked for about a quarter of an hour before reaching the bottom of the cliff. Looking up at the steep mountain, Hua Xiaoqiao was beating her heart. At least she found a protruding cliff, which could accommodate two people underneath, and at least it could shelter from the wind and rain. up.

The journey was very exhausting, but for the safety of the night, I still picked up a lot of dead branches and sticks, and planned to light a fire at night.

Chen Laosan still felt uneasy and said: "Little Qiao, you are waiting for me here. I always feel a little nervous when I go down to have a look. I feel that they should follow this road. I will go and have a look. I have the bottom line in my heart. Don't worry about Ma staying here with you."

Hua Xiaoqiao doesn't want to leave either, and now she just wants to have a good rest.

"Uncle Chen, go, I'll wait for you here, be careful and be safe."

When Uncle Chen left, Hua Xiaoqiao didn't sit in the original position, she still knew the minimum protection, anyway, she had to collect firewood and went directly behind a big rock not far away to wait.

The waiting time was always difficult, and Uncle Chen didn't come back until it was almost dark, and when he came back, he was still holding a few sweet potatoes.

Hua Xiaoqiao had already returned to the bottom of the cliff just now, seeing Uncle Chen's ugly face, she couldn't help feeling worried: "Did Uncle Chen encounter something again?"

She's really a bit of a loser now, always worrying about here and there, and feeling uneasy all the time.

Uncle Chen let out a long breath and said, "We will be able to leave tomorrow. I heard the passing villagers say that there are a lot of officials on the official road, and I saw that group of people."

This afternoon can be said to be thrilling and exciting. He really heard a lot while lying in the grass. Although he didn't say a few words, he still figured out some information from the words.

Hua Xiaoqiao was puzzled: "That group of people really came after them, it's really unbelievable."

Unexpectedly, the group of robbers really did not give up, and actually chased and killed them all the way.

"They came here for hunting. Not many people came here to search. I hid in the grass and heard a few words intermittently. They seem to be going back to Yunxiu Mountain."

Hearing that the robbers were about to leave, Hua Xiaoqiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Aren't we safe if they leave? We will go back to the official road tomorrow morning. Let's go back first. I remember we passed a small town yesterday. town, we can temporarily stay in the town."

She can always find a solution to the matter, and she doesn't believe that the other party can wait for a lifetime.

Sleeping in the mountains at night is not afraid, it is a lie, I often hear all kinds of strange calls.

She was groggy all night, and the next morning she found out that she seemed to be suffering from a cold.

I kept sneezing all the time, and I was so uncomfortable that I was dying.

Chen Laosan is much better.

Seeing that Hua Xiaoqiao was sick, she was a little worried: "I think we should follow what you said, we will go home, and then stop in the small town for a short time."

This is the best way at present, and Hua Xiaoqiao feels that this is the only way to do it for the time being.

Coming out of the mountain forest, the surroundings are very quiet, no one can be seen on the village road, but when I reach the official road, I find that everything around me has changed.

On the official road, they happened to meet an official who was going to Hulukou.
