After picking up the daughter of the lucky star, the whole village prospered

Unexpectedly, before the old man Jiang passed, someone had already gone to meet Mrs. Wen San's master and servant.

Yingbao didn't stop, and under the light of the torch, she took Youyo quickly to the depths of the mountain forest.

She wanted to find the cave described in the book quickly, and make plans for herself after everyone settled down.

Chunniang carried Jiang Jie on her back, Jiang Cheng carried Jiang Wu on her back, Yanru followed behind with Huzi Yuanbao, Wei Zhan and Dani Erni didn't give in too much.

The old man Jiang and his old wife Jiang Liushi did not leave the mule.

Jiang Quan held a torch in front to illuminate the little cousin.

Xiao Zhenniang and her daughter's nanny followed Jiang's family hand in hand, and Wen Fu led them away with heavy loads such as food and bedding on their own horses, which was not slow.

Dozens of old and weak women and children did not make any noise or complain, and all walked silently with the team.

Of course, except for Mrs. Lin and daughter Wen Tian.

"Mom, I can't walk anymore." Wen Tian said with a mournful face, "The shoes keep falling off."

"If you can't walk, you have to go!" Mrs. Lin was so blurred by the rain that she couldn't see the front clearly, and her heart was extremely irritable. Although she felt sorry for her daughter, she had to follow everyone's footsteps.

Wen Tian finally cried, and squatted on the ground, refusing to move her nest: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-mum, I really can't move."

Lin had no choice but to stop the servant: "Aqiu, carry her on your back."

Ah Qiu is only fourteen or fifteen years old, and it is really hard for him to walk at night with eight-year-old Wen Tian on his back.

Coupled with the misty autumn rain, Lin's mother and daughter quickly fell behind the crowd.

Lin was in a hurry, urging the maid who supported Wen Jiao and Ah Qiu who was carrying Wen Tian to hurry up, while she kept calling Xiao Zhenniang in front of her, "Fourth sibling! Wait, don't go so fast, wait for us... "

How could Xiao Zhenniang care about her at this time.

Lin has three servants who can't walk fast, waiting for her is waiting for death.

Hurrying quickly, Yingbao was the first to find the cave mentioned in the book, but the plank road up the mountain was narrow and it was a bit difficult to climb up.

In addition, it is slippery in rainy days, and you can fall off the cliff if you are not careful.

That's right, that cave is halfway up the mountain, and it's a natural cave. As long as my group enters the top and finds someone to guard the mountain path, no one will be able to climb up.

"Mother, be careful with your younger brother." Yingbao told Mother, "I'll go up and have a look first."

She is small and nimble, and she often exercises herself. It is not difficult to walk this kind of mountain path.

Yingbao took the torch in Jiang Quan's hand and walked directly onto the plank road, but the Jiang family didn't react for a while.

Wei Zhan liked this kind of adventure the most, and followed Ying Bao on the plank road in three steps and two steps.

Yoyo couldn't see the little master, so he was so anxious that he turned around in circles. He tried to follow up several times but failed. It was carrying a lot of things on its back, and it was squeezed off as soon as it touched the mountain wall.

In the end, Yoyo could only stay with the mule and horse, watching everyone board the narrow plank road one by one.

Wen Fu didn't go up, and he stayed behind to look after the horses, mules and big deer. These animals carried the rations, bedding and other things of the whole family on their backs, and they must not lose a single bit.

If there is no food, no matter how safe it is up there, they won't be able to last for a few days, so he has to watch over it, and wait until all the old, weak, women and children go up, and then let Jiang Quan and Jiang Cheng come down and transport things up in batches.

After walking along the plank road for a long time, Yingbao took the lead to climb up to the entrance of the cave, only to see the black rumble inside was very scary.

Luckily, Wei Zhan and Jiang Quan followed closely, and shone the torches in their hands inside, saying, "Let's go in and have a look first."

Seeing that she was accompanied by someone, Yingbao boldly went inside.

The cave here is very wide, more than seven feet in length and width, and the entrance of the cave is open, and wind and rain blow in from time to time.

But the cave is not deep, only about four or five feet. If you squeeze it, it will not be a problem to accommodate 200 people.

The ground is very flat, as if it has been repaired, and there are still a few piles of burnt ashes in the corners. It seems that someone once lived here.

At this time, people came in one after another with torches, illuminating the cave brightly.

The old man Jiang, his wife and others also came up, looked around and sighed from time to time: "I haven't been here for many years, it's still the same."

"This place is really nice. It's a good place to take refuge." The patriarch Chen sat on a rock with the support of his eldest son, and said to the old man Jiang: "How do you know there is a cave here?"

Old man Jiang: "I used to come here when I was young. This place is called Tiger's Mouth." After decades, I didn't think of it before, until I saw the plank road.

He was puzzled, how did the little granddaughter know that there is a cave here?

After thinking about it, these children were looking for firewood in the mountains and forests yesterday, and their little granddaughter must have traveled far and found this cave by accident.

Refugees came up one after another, and someone walked around the cave, found two gray snakes, cut them in half with a sickle, and picked them out of the cave.

Chun Niang also came up with her son, she found a clean place to put down the package and basket, and asked her daughter, "Bao'er, is it really safe here?"

Yingbao nodded: "It's safe for the time being. Let the patriarch grandpa find two people to guard at the entrance of the plank road. No one can come up."

According to the book, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Quan stayed at the crossing until the imperial team entered the mountain to suppress the bandits.

"There are bandits besieging the mountain?" Someone couldn't help but question: "We didn't encounter anything along the way."

If you don't sleep at night and run in the wind and rain for so long, it would be a joke if you make an oolong.

Ying Bao ignored this person and was busy helping A Niang to make a bed on the floor for her younger brothers to sleep.

"Whether he has it or not." Most people would rather believe it than not.

"It's not a bad thing for us to come here. Anyway, the cave can shelter from the rain, which is better than staying in the bamboo shed. Go down the mountain tomorrow to find some food and water. It won't be a problem for the court to suppress the bandits."

"That's it!" Someone echoed.

They all expressed satisfaction in going into the cave.

The past few days of running and fleeing had made them physically and mentally exhausted, and now they could finally sleep soundly.

After everyone entered the cave, Yingbao walked to the entrance of the plank road and tried to look down.

I saw Lin's masters and servants holding a torch, still standing at the crossing below and dawdling, eight-year-old Wen Tian desperately refused to set foot on the narrow plank road.

"Woooooo, I don't want to go, I will fall." Wen Tian refused to walk on the crumbling plank road, and kept pulling on Lin's sleeve without letting go.

Lin was helpless, but did not dare to ask Ah Qiu to carry her up.

The plank road is so narrow, it would be bad if Ah Qiu accidentally threw his daughter down the mountain.

Mrs. Lin saw Wen Fu not far away, walked over and said, "Wen Fu, take the eldest lady up."

Wen Fu glanced at her, and immediately refused: "I'm sorry, Third Madam, Wen Fu still has to take care of the food."

"You! How dare you, a dog slave, disobey your master's orders?" Mrs. Lin was very angry.She has been married to the Wen Mansion for so many years, and none of the servants have dared to disobey her orders.

Wen Fu said neither overbearing nor humble: "The slave is the fourth wife's domestic slave, and only obeys the fourth wife's orders."

Lin was going to die of anger, but she also understood that she really couldn't do anything about this damn dog slave at a time like this.

At this moment, Patriarch Chen's grandson came over holding a torch, and stretched out his hand to Wen Tian: "Hold on to me, I'll take you up."

Wen Tian still shook her head, and backed away again and again: "No!"
