After marrying a rough man, I played mahjong to support Shoufu

Chapter 160 The Bizarre Event in Ping'an County
At the end of August in the lunar calendar, it has entered the weather of early autumn.

In the early morning, the air was filled with mist, and the wind blew on the neck, which only gave people a layer of goosebumps.

There are still five days before the government examination, in order to prevent any delays on the road, Shen Xian and Zhao Shun decided to leave early.

Shen Xian put all the changed clothes on the carriage rented in advance, and exhaled, a little white mist could already be seen.

Seeing this, Zhao Shun put the plush cloak that he had customized a few days ago on Shen Xian's shoulders, and tied it carefully.

Shen Xian smiled sweetly, and pressed his warm palm on his face.

The little maid Yuechan looked at it with her head poking her head, envious in her heart.

When the preparations were almost done, Shen Xian called Yuechan to give her instructions carefully.

"Yuechan, I don't know how long it will take for us to return. I will trouble you to look after the house during this time. When the goods in the shop are almost used up, I will go to the Yan's Chamber of Commerce to pick them up. I have already told them hello. .”

Yuechan nodded again and again, and said with frowned eyebrows: "Ma'am, don't worry, you have already told me ten times, I have memorized it by heart."

"LOL, really."

Shen Xian smiled foolishly, after all it was about Zhao Shun's going to the capital, she dare not take it lightly.

Zhao Shun showed a gentle smile, gently took her hand and said, "Lady, let's go, the driver has been waiting for half an hour."

"Ok."

Shen Xian thought about it carefully, there should be no omissions, and then stepped on the low stool to get into the carriage.

Lifting the curtain of the car, Shen Xian saw Yuechan standing at the door and waving her hands vigorously. The thick fog soon engulfed the small yard, she was really reluctant to part with it.

Zhao Shun saw her thoughts, touched her hand to his mouth and blew hot air.

"The lady is running around for my affairs, and one day I will definitely let the lady live a happy life."

Shen Xian pinched his cheek, and said softly: "Don't feel indebted to me, and don't feel pressured in your heart. I will wait for that day when you finish the business."

Sitting in the carriage was rickety. There was no shock-absorbing measures in the carriage in this era. If it accidentally ran over a stone, it would be a violent bump. Fortunately, the cushion of the carriage was thick enough, otherwise it would be a lot of suffering along the way.

The wheels creaked and creaked to the gate of the city, and the sound of cow rain came from outside.

"Is it sister Shen?"

Shen Xian opened the curtain, and saw the brothers and sisters of the Niu family and the little beggar Erwa.

"Why are you all here, why don't you sleep more?"

Niu Yu smiled and stuffed a large bag of snacks into Shen Xian's hands and said, "You don't have many friends and relatives in the county, so what would it be like if no one sent you off for this long journey."

Niu Lei scratched his head, but couldn't think of any good words, so he cupped his hands and said, "I don't know how to be a scholar, so I just wish Brother Zhao a high school tribute."

Zhao Shun returned the gift with a smile, "I would like to lend you a good word."

The little beggar Erwa has changed a lot now, the simple wooden stick in his hand has become a polished wooden stick, and the tattered clothes have also been replaced by commoner clothes.

Holding a crutch, he quickly jumped over with one leg, and put the pale yellow talisman in Zhao Shun's palm.

"Brother Zhao, I asked for this from the Taoist temple. I wish you a pass."

Holding the talisman in his hand, Zhao Shun felt a little warmth in his heart. There are still so many people who are looking forward to them and caring about them. They are not alone along the way.

"Thank you very much, Zhao will definitely live up to expectations."

Shen Xian waved his hands with a smile, "Goodbye everyone! Take care!"

"Take care of yourself!"

Watched by their friends, Shen Xian and Zhao Shun set off for Yuhua Prefecture.

The location of the exam is the state capital, located in the hinterland of Yuhua Prefecture. You can walk along the official road to Ping'an County, and then change the waterway and go down the Li River until you reach Yuhua Prefecture.

Shen Xian slid his fingers across the map, muttering in his voice.

Sitting beside her, Zhao Shun never took his eyes off her for a moment. Seeing the little daughter-in-law pouted, Zhao Shun lightly tasted the rouge on her lips.

Shen Xian blushed, pushed her away coquettishly, and whispered: "What are you doing, there are coachmen outside."

Zhao Shun smiled lightly, changed the topic and said, "What did you see just now, why did you have a weird expression?"

"Alas." With a soft sigh, Shen Xian spread out the map, pointed to the waterway and said: "I'm afraid of getting seasick."

Before the time travel, Shen Xian was a landlubber who went out of her small circle and was seasick. She went to the beach with her sisters. Everyone else was on a surf cruise ship. She could only lie on a beach chair and sunbathe.

Zhao Shun showed a mysterious smile, took out a small bottle of medicine from his bosom, and shook it in front of Shen Xian, "I've been prepared for a long time."

"What is this." Shen Xian stretched out his hand to grab it, opened the bottle and smelled it, there was a smell of essential oil.

"This is Baozhitang's wonderful medicine for seasickness. It refreshes the mind."

Zhao Shun took the medicine bottle back, put it away carefully, and said: "I don't know what this thing is made of. The shopkeeper told me not to touch open flames, otherwise it will explode."

"Oh, like this."

Seeing Zhao Shun's consideration was so thorough, Shen Xian shook his little head and rubbed against his shoulders, his delicate temples were messy, and then pouted to take care of them.

After walking on the dry road for a day and a half, the carriage slowly drove into Ping'an County.

The Li River flows through the center of Ping'an County. As long as you get on the ferry, you can travel to Yuhua Prefecture in two days. Calculate the time and there is still a day and a half to prepare and rest.

However, when we arrived at the ferry in Ping'an County, something unexpected happened.

There were crowds of people near the ferry, and travelers with luggage and merchants pulling cargo ships were stopped outside the ferry.

Zhao Shun leaned out of the carriage, looked at the crowded and noisy crowd, and frowned deeply.

He immediately got out of the carriage and found a young scholar with an anxious face to call.

"Brother, may I ask what happened in front of this? Why don't you let everyone enter the ferry?"

The scholar sighed heavily, and said in a dejected tone: "I just arrived not long ago, but I heard that there is a Wu Gorge downstream from Ping'an County, where there are evil dragons hiding in the water, and a passenger ship sank for two days in a row. So the government closed it down."

Zhao Shun's face became cold when he heard such a strange thing, "It's so strange without saying a word, this dragon is a legendary thing, how could it really appear."

The young scholar immediately said: "Brother Tai is right. It is clear that something happened to the passenger ship. This is why the government is lazy and wastes food because of choking."

"Accident?" Hearing these two words, Shen Xian gradually became worried, and couldn't help asking: "Is this Lijiang River very dangerous? Does it often have accidents?"

"Uh...that's not true." The young scholar thought for a while and said, "The Lijiang River is calm and there are very few accidents. This time, it's strange that something happened for two consecutive days."
