Chapter 22 Temporary Settlement

Cheng San looked extremely skillful in this technique, and the military man said curiously: "You guy is very skilled. Is it better to follow us to be a military doctor in the Han army than to stay in my hometown to waste your life?"

Shu Yan's expression changed when he heard this. Cheng San smiled and said, "What Jun Ye said is that I will join the army today. But my younger brother in his family was infected with a plague. I was afraid of going to the military camp..."

When several military men heard this, their faces changed and they hurriedly took the person away.

Before leaving, he said viciously: "Why didn't you say it earlier!"

Seeing several military men leaving, Shu Yan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She patted Cheng San on the shoulder and smiled, "You kid are really a little wise."

Cheng San's expression did not relax at all. He closed the door and said seriously to Shu Yan: "Long Yun's people have guarded the entrance to the city. They should be looking for someone. We can't get out at the moment."

Shu Yan looked around and felt an indescribable pain in his heart.

Wars are really more terrifying than natural disasters. Those military men will kill people if they are unhappy.

Shu Yan asked, "What should we do? Can you slip out while it's dark?"

Cheng San smiled helplessly and said, "It's okay for me to sneak out by myself, but how can this family be so old, weak, sick and disabled?"

Shu Yan was immediately worried. Cheng San went straight to the kitchen and took two big buns to eat. The food was particularly comfortable.

However, when Cheng San saw that there were so many buns he had originally made, there were only a few left, he couldn't help but mutter.

"The buns made by the people were taken away by those people."

Shu Yan leaned against the door and suddenly thought of something. She clapped her hands suddenly and said to Cheng San: "I have an idea, maybe I can leave the city."

Two or three days later, the Han army conquered a lot of soldiers in the city and caused a lot of people.

At noon that day, an old woman appeared at the east gate, followed by two children and a man. The man was pushing a pair of carts, and there seemed to be a corpse lying on it.

The old lady cried so sadly that when she arrived at the city gate, a military general stopped her.

"The general has an order, no funeral is allowed."

Shu Yan wiped the tears from his face and cried, "My daughter died of the epidemic. If she didn't hurry to find a place outside the city and buried it, the whole family would be dragged down by her..."

When the military man heard this, he immediately took a step back, but he still ordered someone to lift the white cloth. He saw that the woman's face was covered with sores. He saw that she had some serious illness and had an extremely unpleasant smell.

The Junhan immediately said disgustedly: "Take the person away quickly, I'm so disgusting."

Cheng San hurriedly pushed the cart through the city gate, but just as he was about to leave the city, a few people riding tall horses came towards him.

The leader was the General Long, and Shu Yan hurriedly pulled someone to kneel down.

Fortunately, Long Yun was worried at this time and did not look at it much. Instead, the military advisor beside him said coldly: "What are they going to do?"

The military man hurriedly replied.

"Report to the military advisor, the one who was pulled on the cart was a woman with an epidemic. If she was not sent out of the city, it would probably delay the big thing."

The military advisor winked at a soldier, and the soldier hurriedly lifted the white cloth, and a smell of stench came, and the military advisor frowned.

"Take it away quickly."

After the military advisor finished speaking, he rode away on a horse. Shu Yan hurriedly pushed the cart with Cheng San.

After leaving the city gate, Shu Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Their donkey was explained to the city, but it was OK to get a cart out.

They pushed the person to the edge of the pond a few miles away, Qixiu got up from the cart, and went down to clean the smell on her body.

Shu Yan said with some guilt, "It's just that you've suffered."

Qixiu smiled.

"I didn't expect that my illness would have such benefits."

Several people repaired the cart and hurriedly pushed the cart to the northwest.

Cheng San pushed the cart and Yu'an lay on the cart. The child's health was much better, but his spirit was still a little depressed.

Because he was afraid of the pursuers behind him, he did not dare to stay. He had to travel day and night. After walking for more than ten days, he found a place to rest well.

After they left for these days, they must have left the boundary of Yingzhou. After they passed the Huai River, they had already arrived at the heart of the Central Plains.

There was a flood here just last year. There were hungry people everywhere and the mountains were full of bandits. They could not be alone, so they had to find a place to wait for the refugee team to cross the Huai River together.

And they had to build a boat that could cross the Huai River, which was not a small project.

This is a huge mudflat, with a large area of ​​abandoned farmland and dilapidated houses in the distance.

Shu Yan and his friends found a relatively intact house. In fact, it was said that it was intact, but it was just one more roof than other houses and one wall completely collapsed.

However, the sun is better here, and there is also a bed left.

Cheng San and the others settled the guy's affairs, then found some bricks from other places, and built the stepped wall.

Shu Yan took Qixiu to the riverside to dig some river mud, and after he came back, he reinforced the small house.

They worked hard all day and then placed the bedding, so they had a place to sleep.

Cheng San also pushed the cart in and turned it into a second bed.

After finishing all this, Qixiu started cooking. She didn't have much food to bring before, so Cheng San took Xiaoyuer to the river to catch fish.

Shu Yan took Yu'an to dig wild vegetables.

The most common thing I do on the way to escape is to dig wild vegetables, because I always can’t eat enough on the road, but wild vegetables always grow.

Yu'an's health has improved, but he is much silent than before. He knew how to read, but now he doesn't like reading much.

Shu Yan squatted down and pulled out a wild vegetable.

"Why are you feeling depressed these days? You haven't been well yet?"

Yu'an shook his head and said softly: "My grandma, I just think reading seems useless. The people in the world live as hard as ours."

Shu Yan was really surprised that such a young child said such words. She reached out and touched Yu'an's head.

"There is a saying that goes well. If you are prosperous, you will benefit the world. If you are poor, you will be safe. If you are happy to study, you will definitely be able to benefit the people of the world in the future."

Yu'an nodded, he lowered his head, hesitated for a while and said, "Before, I was very rude to Uncle Cheng San, but he found me medicine, grandma, please apologize to him later."

Yu'an is kind-hearted and very cute. Shu Yan touched Yu'an's little face and said with a smile: "Okay, my grandma will tell you later."

The two of them picked the wild vegetables and went back and put them in and cooked them directly.

After the wild vegetable porridge was ready, Cheng San and Xiao Yuer also came back. They were holding two fish in their hands, which obviously had some gains.

Xiao Yuer ran over excitedly and said with a smile: "Grandma, look!"

The little fish was holding a pearl in his hand.
