Chapter 843 The Tree Falls

Chapter 844 The Tree Falls

The spring rains continued in March and April. In this era without cement and asphalt, the only thing that could remain clean on rainy days was the bluestone slab.

The rain didn't come suddenly, but because they were already walking on the road and had no way to go to the village or store, they had no choice but to brave the rain.

Fortunately, the carriage that Sheng Xi and the child were in was specially modified by her. It was spacious enough, warm and airtight. The top, bottom, left and right sides of the carriage were made to be shockproof and anti-collision, so even if the road was bumpy, the inside would not be greatly affected.

But accidents always come with being caught off guard. Just when everyone thought they would walk through the quagmire-like road in front of them safely, a gust of wind suddenly blew up, picking up the raincoats on everyone's bodies, and also picked up a tree beside the road that one person was holding. Big tree.

In an instant, there was only a "click" sound, and the big tree was blown down by the wind, and it hit the carriage that Sheng Xi and the others were on!

Because the driver had closed his eyes before, when he saw the tree coming and wanted to turn the horse's head, it was already too late.Seeing that the trunk of the tree was about to hit the horse's back, a figure suddenly rushed over and caught the trunk with his back.

And just like that, the coachman quickly pulled the reins, making the horse stagger away from the tree trunk that was hit.

In the carriage, Sheng Xi took back the pebbles on her fingertips, glanced at the two sleeping children through a translucent curtain, and after asking the nanny to keep an eye on them, she turned around and walked out of the carriage.

Xinru was riding a horse and rushed over as soon as she heard the movement. She immediately exclaimed when she saw the person under the tree trunk, and then worked with a guard to move the tree away from the person.

"Madam, it's Chun Niang!" Xin Ru said to her.

Sheng Xi nodded, jumped off the carriage, asked someone to carry Chun Niang into a carriage behind, and then treated her personally.

The person fainted, but his bones were not seriously injured, but his internal organs were affected and needed to be recuperated.

Xin Ru was still frightened when she thought about the situation just now. Seeing Chun Niang acting like this again, she couldn't help but blame herself: "Madam, it's my fault that I didn't do a good job! It's my fault that I wasn't alert enough, and my wife and young master were frightened!"

Sheng Xi said: "Don't shoulder the blame. There are unpredictable natural disasters. No one knows that the tree will fall."

Speaking of trees, Sheng Xi's eyes narrowed for a moment, then returned to normal.

And she also thought of a question and asked Xin Ru: "Why did Chun Niang run to the front? Isn't she in the car?"

"Ah, here, Chun Niang said that she was really anxious and had to get out of the car." Sheng Xi was answered by one of the Wen Pos sitting with Chun Niang.

Sheng Xi looked at the Wen Po. When the Wen Po saw Sheng Xi signaling for her to continue speaking, she continued: "I was still a grandma at the time. I took out a raincoat from behind and gave it to her. Later, Chun Niang got out of the car. , I was worried that the road outside was slippery and she would fall, so I opened the car curtain and took a look, and saw her entering the woods."

Wen Po said and pointed in one direction, but it was exactly opposite to the fallen tree, one to the left and one to the right.

"What happens next?" Sheng Xi asked.

"Ah, because the wind was too strong and the rain came in, I stopped watching." Po Wen replied.

Sheng Xi's eyebrows moved slightly, which meant that no one saw Chun Niang coming back, and no one knew why she suddenly rushed over.But looking at the distance between the carriages, if she saw danger and rushed over, she could explain it.

Looking at the others, it was obvious that they had nothing to add.

Sheng Xi suppressed her conspiracy theories for the time being. At least judging from the current situation, Chun Niang knew how to protect her master.Her collision today also won over most of the people's hearts. "Okay, let's all return to the team. The rain won't stop today. Let's hurry up and get to the nearest city or inn." After Sheng Xi gave the order, he looked back at Chun Niang, who was still unconscious, and then told the two Wenpo said, "Take care of her."

After that, she got out of the car and returned to her carriage.As she boarded the car, her gaze slid across the woods opposite, her eyes slightly narrowed.

This accident made everyone even more alert, especially the carriage where Sheng Xi was sitting. A lot of people were added to guard it for a while, for fear of another accident.

Fortunately, the road after that was relatively easy to walk, and there were a lot fewer trees on the roadside.After about an hour, they finally arrived at the nearest inn, and Sheng Xi ordered them to rest in the inn today.

Yi Chengben was still nestling in the recliner, fanning himself and humming a tune, admiring the rainy scene today. When so many people suddenly showed up, he was really stunned for a moment.

But the postmaster responded quickly. With so many people, they must be either rich or noble, so he immediately called on the only postman in the posthouse to get busy.

"Oh, where are you adults? It's a bad day today. Nothing happened on the road, right? Oh, it's all wet. I'll ask someone to arrange for some roasted ginger soup..."

Yi Cheng outputted a bunch of words, but Xin Ru didn't have a chance to speak.Finally, when the other party turned around and was about to arrange for the postman to make ginger soup, Xin Ru hurriedly said: "Hey, no need, we will make the ginger soup ourselves, but we need to borrow your kitchen."

"Ah, no problem! No problem!" Yi Cheng nodded hurriedly. He glanced at everyone and suddenly saw someone lying on a stretcher. His expression changed immediately and he said immediately: "This, this, this, this is injured. ? Ouch, is this girl okay?"

As soon as Yi Cheng finished speaking, Chun Niang, who was still unconscious on the stretcher, opened her eyes the next moment.

"Ouch", Yi Cheng jumped out a long way as if he had seen a corpse.

Xin Ru: "..."

Chun Niang, who had just woken up and had not had time to look around, said: "..."

Yi Cheng realized that he was overreacting: "Ahem, then, what, the villain is a bit afraid of ghosts."

Sheng Xi, who had just come in from outside with Shen Gui in his arms: "..."

She glanced at Chun Niang, who finally understood what Yi Cheng meant. She looked like she was about to cry, and she was clearly awake.

Yi Cheng, who was so embarrassed that he wanted to pick his toes, rolled his eyes back and forth several times, and finally bowed to Chun Niang: "Girl, I'm sorry! I really didn't mean to say you were a ghost!"

"Pfft!" Xin Ru tried her best but still leaked a breath.Yi Cheng, it would be better not to say this apology.

Sheng Xi coughed lightly and said, "Help us arrange a room as soon as possible. Oh, and also, this girl needs to arrange a room by herself."

Sheng Xi spoke, and Yi Cheng saw with sharp eyes that she was the one in charge, so he should make arrangements immediately.

It's just that this inn is small after all. Although there are not many guests today, the number of single rooms that can be arranged is limited.More people need to live in Datongpu with other people.

After Chun Niang regained consciousness, she struggled to get off the stretcher, but everyone couldn't help it, so they had to let her off the stretcher.

Without waiting to stand firm, Chun Niang knelt down in front of Sheng Xi with a pop, and said in a hoarse voice: "Madam, Chun Niang is incompetent. Chun Niang failed to protect Madam and the young master. Chun Niang is not There should be a special exception, Chun Niang only wants to live in the common bunk with everyone, so this single room should be given to someone else!"
