"Can Niang, Uncle Hua said that everyone should rest in half an hour, so let's make a cold-repelling decoction first."
Li Yuan, who had already walked back to the carriage, said this and closed the carriage a little.
Then he turned his back to Zhou Zi, who had been replaced, took out the barrel from the space, and walked out again.
"Can Niang, you first use the saved water to make a cold-repelling soup for everyone, and I will go get the water. After a while, it will be boiled and put into an empty jar, and then wrapped in a quilt. This way, after everyone stops to rest, , you can also drink a bowl of hot soup."
Wang Can understood that Li Yuan's words were meant for Zhou Zi, and when he heard the words, he replied: "Okay!"
Li Yuan walked to the shaft of the car with the wooden bucket and said to Zhou Zi: "Zhou Zi, we have to make some soup for everyone. You can help me catch some rainwater. Let me know when you are ready and I will come and carry it."
"good!"
Li Yuan did not go back to the carriage immediately. Instead, she held on to the shaft of the carriage and shouted to Li Qinghua who was behind him.
"Uncle Hua, I'm going to prepare some cold-repelling soup for everyone here, and you can also ask someone to prepare some over there. Let's try to have a bowl for everyone while everyone is resting."
Li Qinghua was still on Old Man Li's carriage. When he heard Li Yuan's words, he agreed.
Although it was raining heavily at this time, Li Yuan's voice was not quiet. Doctor Liu, who was sitting in the carriage transporting herbs, naturally heard her words.
As soon as Li Qinghua's reply came out, he heard him say: "Ms. Li, just don't worry, I already took the medicine an hour ago."
The strong laborers who were walking through the rain felt warm in their hearts when they heard these words.
It's great to have Li Yuan in the Li family. The weather is like this. If it weren't for her, every household in their family would be flooded.
Even if it's not flooded, I'm afraid it won't be much better!
Now that they have escaped, they don't know what is happening with the people who stayed there.
They all have sisters, aunts or uncles who are still there. I hope they will be safe!
The rain got heavier and heavier, and in the end, even though everyone was wearing big hats and raincoats, the clothes inside were still wet.
And in front of me, I couldn't even see clearly.
Looking around, it's foggy!
They can only walk numbly and rely on perseverance. Even if they can't walk, they are dragged by others.
The straw sandals on my feet were lost somewhere before I could take them off.
Li Qinghua saw that this was not an option. They could not find a place that could accommodate more than 800 people to rest. Even if there was one, they would not dare to go.
The rain was so heavy that they were all panicking, not knowing what would happen if it stopped.
They didn't want to give themselves a chance to regret, so they could only encourage everyone with words.
The Li clan members who promised to rest in half an hour could not find a place after half an hour, so they could only grit their teeth and persist.
When Li Yuan came out of the space, half an hour had passed, or even more than a quarter of an hour.
She felt that this was not the way to go, so she asked Zhou Chou to stop and got off the carriage to find Li Qinghua.
After discovering that he was in her father's carriage, she didn't even take off her bamboo hat and raincoat, so she sat outside the carriage and said to him: "Uncle Hua, please stop and rest. We are all too tired and can't continue walking. , something will happen. Also, the cows and horses need to take a rest and feed them some fodder."
Li Qinghua looked up at the foggy front, frowning: "Mother Yuan, this is not a good place to rest."
"I know! But now we can't see anywhere clearly, so we can only rest where we are. There are many of us, so as long as there is no landslide or flash flood, nothing will happen. Let's just rest for a while and let everyone eat something. That's fine. Uncle Hua, listen to me, or if you continue like this, there will be problems."
Li Qinghua didn't twist her. After sighing deeply, he accepted his fate.
But before he could say anything, someone behind him was walking a little slower than the carriage. Suddenly, someone's legs became weak, and his feet stumbled forward as if they had kicked something.
The person tied to her was already tired and hungry from walking, and had to push things around.
None of them knew how long they had been walking. During this process, no one dared to cry out about hardship or tiredness, even the women.
They were relying on perseverance to hold on, but when she pulled them, they fell forward together.
As they fell, they subconsciously loosened the hemp rope holding the people behind them, and also let go of the cart they were pushing.
The people behind were unprepared, and with the rainwater flowing down from the official road from the top of the mountain, the water flow was quite large.
These people were directly hit backwards by the rushing water and the sliding trolley.
Like a domino effect, the people behind fell one by one, all falling backwards.
The carts were either swept away, or the contents of the carts hit people directly.
The situation behind was so frightening that the people in front who heard the noise quickly shouted: "Chief, something happened, please come and help!"
Li Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and without her having to say anything, Zhou Zi, Zhou Chou and others immediately stopped the carriage and quickly headed back along the water.
Li Qinghua and Old Man Li couldn't sit still when they heard the sound. They were about to get off the car one by one, but Li Yuan hurriedly stopped them.
"Master, Uncle Hua, Chou Yin Mao Chen of the Zhou family should have passed away. I'll just go and take a look. Don't run around."
Li Yuan said, got off the carriage and shouted to the front: "Can Niang, someone may be injured. You can get out of the carriage and go to Dr. Liu's carriage to help."
Wang Can, who was in the carriage, knew as soon as she heard that she wanted to take advantage of her time to help and see if she could help a bunch of those people with spiritual spring water without leaving any trace.
But her spiritual spring water had been drained before, so she didn't know if she could help.
Thinking of this, Wang Can still got off the carriage neatly.
When she walked along the rushing water to Li Yuan, the two of them took advantage of the heavy rain and everyone couldn't see the situation outside, so they held the walking sticks taken out from the space in one hand and walked to where Dr. Liu was sitting. on the carriage.
"Doctor Liu, you should be very busy here in a while. Canniang is here to help you. I'll go back and see what's going on."
With that said, she continued walking back on crutches without waiting for Doctor Liu to say anything.
It was such a mess over there that she couldn't see clearly what was going on.
Before she could squeeze through, the crowd of people surrounding them made way, and one after another people were being helped towards this side.
The leader was Zhou Zi, who carried a soaked and unconscious person on his left and right shoulders.
The same goes for Zhou Chou. The person he was supporting with his left and right hands looked like his hands were injured.
There were also some who were helped over and were hopping on one foot.
His head was bruised and bleeding, and he was carried away...
It was also at this time that a serious voice came from the front.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?"
Since the first carriage was empty, the people in the second carriage poked their heads out to take a look.
Seeing that they didn't recognize the person coming, they kept silent.
Li Qinghua, who was in the third carriage, felt that the voice of the person coming was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.
