Chapter 142 Missed
The rope, which was under normal force, twisted and tightened in an instant, causing Liu Renci and the others who were about to reach the opposite bank to lose their balance in an instant!The wooden barrel under Liu Renci's feet was overturned and washed away by the flood!

Fortunately, several people had previous experience of officers and soldiers having their tubs washed away.

The officer and soldier behind him quickly grabbed Liu Renci, and with the strength of this strong officer, Liu Renci stepped into the officer's wooden basin.

But before his body stabilized, the rope began to shake violently.

Several people looked back and saw that the end they had just come over had been occupied by victims. Many victims grabbed the ropes and wanted to use the ropes to cross the river.

But how could they cross the turbulent torrent with only a rope? In just an instant, three victims were swept away by the flood and disappeared into the turbid flood.

Even so, there are still more people who want to grab the rope, as if this rope is their last hope.

The victims who arrived late could no longer grab the position of the rope. As soon as they turned their eyes, they focused on the old servant Liu Renren left behind.

Liu Renren's eyes widened with anger as he watched as the old servant who stayed where he was was instantly robbed by the victims. His horse was snatched away by the victims, and his old clothes were stripped off. Finally, he was pushed into the flood in horror. inside……

Ahai also saw the miserable fate of his companions. He said angrily: "Master, we crossed the river to raise food for them. How could they repay kindness with hatred! Lao Jiang's death was too tragic!"

Liu Renren closed his eyes in pain. There was no difference between the extremely hungry victims and wild beasts!
He coldly said to Ah Hai: "Shut up! Cross the river first!"

But on the other side, there are more than ten or twenty disaster victims who are pulling the rope. The rope is not stable and swaying. Originally, they could reach the other side quickly with the help of the buoyancy of the wooden barrel and tub, but now they have to struggle to stabilize their bodies. It took a while to resist the raging flood, and then they traveled a short distance.

At this time, someone reminded in surprise, "The rope, the rope will not hold up! Come here quickly!"

I saw that the middle of the two-finger-thick hemp rope across this waterway had been broken in half due to too much force!
I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on much longer!
When Gu Hongchao and his party arrived nearby, they happened to encounter the scene of Liu Renci crossing the river.

Gu Hongchao, who was sitting in the carriage, opened the curtain and looked at what was happening by the river. He frowned and stood up impatiently to get off the carriage. Yu Ming, who was sitting opposite and drinking tea, said: "Brother Hongchao What are you going to do?”

Gu Hongchao frowned, "Those men crossing the river need help."

Yu Ming smiled and glanced at Gu Hongchao's arm, "Brother Hongchao, can you still help with his arm like this? Even if you help the people crossing the river in front, will Brother Hongchao help the victims behind or not?" "

Hearing what Yu Ming said, Gu Hongchao was taken aback, "I'll ask the guards to help."

Yu Ming laughed and said, "Are there Gu family guards here?"

Gu Hongchao looked outside and then remembered that the only Gu family members following them out were his regular attendant, one of Bai Lingge's personal maids, and a coachman.

The remaining ten or so people are Yu Ming's guards...

There was a sudden flood, and the family bought food. In order to reduce the consumption of the house, more than half of the guard servants were sent to a dilapidated house on the outskirts of Beijing. If the situation worsened, it is estimated that the mother would soon sell off all these guard servants.

Because of this, the only person who followed Gu Hongchao out today was Chang Sui, who was close to him.

The dignified former son-in-law doesn't even have the style to go out like Yu Ming, a son-in-law.

Bai Lingge who was sitting next to him tugged at Gu Hongchao's sleeve.

Gu Hongchao, who was aware of the situation at the moment, sat down a little discouraged.

Seeing this, Yu Ming laughed and poured tea for Gu Hongchao, "I know brother Hongchao is kind-hearted, but brother Hongchao is not Guanyin Bodhisattva, there are so many people in Dawu, can brother Hongchao save them all? Look In the carriages around us, there are a few people who are not nobles, and it’s not like they don’t have any outstanding people. We also hide among these people to see this rare excitement! Come, drink tea and drink tea! This is the best Longjing!”

Bai Linge brought the tea poured by Yu Ming to Gu Hongchao.

Gu Hongchao took a deep breath, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

For some reason, looking at the few people struggling on the river, Gu Hongchao always felt an uneasy sense of missing out.

Yu Ming was in a very good mood, and he was still in the mood to make tea for Gu Hongchao and Bai Lingge, and a few carriages beside him had already opened their bets on whether Liu Renci and his party could cross the river.

There were so many people watching on this side of the river, but few were really worried about Liu Renren.

After Ah Hai found that the rope was about to break, he hurriedly said: "Master, you step on our wooden basin and go there first!"

Liu Renren shook his head firmly, "You go quickly, your methods will only waste time, and everyone will be buried in the flood!"

Ah Hai saw the determination in his master's eyes, gritted his teeth, and began to swing the wooden basin under his feet quickly, trying to move to the opposite bank with the officers and soldiers in front.

But there are several strong victims on the other side who have used the rope to forcefully cross to one-third of the way. The rope becomes more swaying, and the middle section is under greater pressure!The hemp rope is about to break in the middle!
Xuan Cang rode on horseback and led Qin Shuhuang's personal guards to the vicinity of Changqing Temple.

Not long after leaving the city gate, I saw a lot of people gathered near the river.

Xuan Cang frowned and asked Xie Zhuo to check the situation.

After a while, Xie Zhuo came back and reported to Xuancang about Liu Renci and the others crossing the river.

Xie Zhuo frowned, "I don't know who is crossing the river with a wooden basin of ropes. There are many victims on the other side of the river, and the ropes are about to fail. I'm afraid these people will fall into the flood."

"No one to help?" Xuan Cang's face became ugly.

Xie Zhuo shook his head. The surrounding crowd were all Gaoliang disciples from Beijing, and they had already started placing bets. With these people around, few who really wanted to help would dare to make a move.

Xuan Cang's face darkened, "Let's go take a look!"

Xuan Cang and a team of captains and guards of the Princess Palace had just arrived at the riverside, turned over and dismounted, and the already precarious hemp rope on the riverway was instantly broken in the middle!
The people standing by the river exclaimed, and the wooden basin and barrel under the feet of Liu Renci and the others were instantly overturned by the flood.

Fortunately, they held on to the hemp rope tightly and were not washed away by the flood in the first place.

But four people fell on a hemp rope. If no one helped pull them out of the flood, they would be swept away by the flood within a short time!

The victims on the opposite side were even worse. More than a dozen people were holding on to a rope, fighting for it. When the rope broke, seven or eight people were swept into the flood and destroyed in an instant.

For the rest of you, you step on me and I step on you and you pull the rope and climb to the shore.

Seeing the situation at this moment, Xuan Cang ordered his subordinates without thinking, "Save people!"
