Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 126 Mei Qian: I haven’t come down yet!

"There is a westward branch twenty miles south of the Yuqing River from the wharf in Huaichu. When the time comes, Miss Mei will please sail the boat to that branch and go upstream. There will be a wild ferry about ten miles away. ”

Mei Qian pursed her lips. She sat in the cabin, looking up at Mei Shitou who was standing at the bow of the boat, and kept repeating what Chang An had told them about the joint, for fear of going the wrong way.

"Don't worry, I remember."

Mei Shitou listened to what Mei Qian emphasized repeatedly and turned his head to give Mei Qian a reassuring look.

At this moment, both brother and sister were wearing bamboo hats and raincoats, so even acquaintances might not be able to recognize them.

Mei Qian was also afraid that there would be too many eyes. If the Imperial City Division tracked down this place, at least no one would be able to recognize them based on their appearance, which showed no shape or face.

"I wonder if my sister-in-law has brought Chang An to that ferry."

Mei Qian and Mei Shitou's trip to buy a boat went smoothly, except that the money to buy the boat was really not cheap.

It took a jar of deer penis wine to buy this ship.

As for the wine that Baoding Ding made, Mei Qian wanted to prevent it from going back. Mrs. Mei said that they spent too much money on the trip. She planned to send Chang'an away and then find a good seller (yuan) to sell it to (zhong). Go back at a good price.

"They left earlier than us and should be arriving soon."

It took about a day for them to buy the ship, inspect it, and pay the money. Cui'er took Chang An directly to the agreed place. Even if he didn't arrive now, he would arrive faster than them in the end.

Mei Qian said this, and Mei Shitou didn't know if he heard it, but Mei Qian felt that his brother's boating speed was getting faster and faster.

But even so, it was already dark by the time they arrived at the agreed upon location.

"This way~"

In the darkness, Mei Shitou stared at the faint firelight on the shore not far away and the familiar low voice, and then Mei Shitou dared to slowly approach the shore.

There is no wind tonight, and a crescent moon only accentuates the surrounding darkness.

It wasn't until they reached the shore that Mei Qian could clearly see what kind of wild ferry this was.

Mei Qian stood at the bow of the boat and carefully looked at the surrounding environment with the weak light in her sister-in-law's hand.

Overgrown weeds, shrubs, crooked-neck trees, vines, large trees, etc. grew together. For a moment, whoever looked at this couldn't help but ask: "The ferry? Is this it?"

This ferry is a hundred times more desolate than the ferry where her mother found the boat. Oh, this is not called desolation. People are desolate and nothing has grown. In this area, except for the terrible ferry facilities, other aspects are still quite good.

Looking at the edge of the protruding plank on the shore that was close to decay, Mei Qian squatted on the bow of the boat and couldn't help but remind the people on the shore to be careful not to use all the strength on the edge.

At this time, Mei Shitou, who was beside Mei Qian, stepped ashore with great force. The ship's hull deflected due to the interaction of the forces, and Mei Qian, who was squatting, also felt that her body was a little unstable.

"Ouch, ship!"

Only then did Mei Shitou realize that he had not secured the ship before it docked. Seeing this, Chang An became anxious and jumped directly with all his strength!
With a "Kabeng" sound, the front end of the ferry suddenly collapsed. Mei Shitou protected Cui'er and retreated continuously. Then Chang An successfully jumped onto the bow. There was another wave of unstable force, and Mei Qian rolled directly backwards. In the cabin!
Literally rolled in.

Mei Qian was thrown to pieces all at once. Before she could recover and wanted to curse, she heard Chang An's "No!"

Then, as soon as she sat up, the ship's hull bumped again. Mei Qian couldn't sit still, and her body tilted and fell to the side again.

This time she was not in a hurry to get up to see what was going on. She had discovered that the ship was really moving. She had more important things to do——

"I-I haven't gone down yet!"

Mei Qian couldn't help shouting while lying there, but Chang'an suddenly turned to Mei Qian who was lying in the boat and hissed:

"Someone is coming, we have to leave quickly."

Mei Qian:? ? ?
After hearing this, Mei Qian climbed to the stern of the boat on her hands and knees, stretched out her head, and saw that the lights in the direction of the ferry had already been extinguished.

"Then, what about my brother, my sister-in-law, and the others?"

Mei Qian suddenly became scared again. Chang An supported the boat with all his strength and said, "Don't worry, they just need to leave along the way they came. Those people's target is me. Our boat must have been discovered."

As if to prove that what Chang An said was true, suddenly a voice of "biu——pa!" sounded from the shore. Mei Qiancha looked up and saw someone on the shore setting off "fireworks".

Oh, exactly what signal should it be. "The Imperial City Secretary is so fast."

Mei Qian felt even more nervous when she learned from Chang'an that it was really people from the Imperial City Division who came to arrest him.

She quickly put the hat she had dropped when she fell down on her head again.

I was afraid of what I would do if I was recognized.

"Then what will you do next?"

Mei Qian looked at the signals sent several times in succession behind her, each time closer than the last time. Mei Qian had a vague guess that those people were chasing them on the shore.

"Crossing the river, you can go directly to the Yuan River from here."

"Ah...then what should I do? Why don't you take some time and put me on the opposite bank or in shallow water."

When she heard that people were going to cross the river, Mei Qian panicked.

"It's too late!" Chang An caught a glimpse of the moving fire on the shore from the corner of his eye, and said to Mei Qian, "Sit tight!"

"what!"

Mei Qian wanted to continue saying something, but the boat suddenly started to jolt violently.

And all this was just the beginning. The boat became more and more bumpy after that. Mei Qian was only lying on her stomach and never sat up. She held on to the place where this skill caught to stabilize her body, but just like that, it was bumpy. Next, Mei Qian felt like her whole body was about to fall apart.

When she saw the sky turn white again, Mei Qian suspected that her brain was shaken and she was hallucinating.

How long has it been since then, and it’s already dawn?

"call--"

Mei Qian's expression was as ugly as that of Chang An, who had been boating all night. Mei Qian finally stood up. She wanted to tell Chang An that his boating skills that sent people to the west made her suffer so much, but when she saw him The swollen and congested arms immediately stopped complaining.

"How hard did you use last night?"

"Use as much force as you can. This section is a countercurrent. If I don't use my strength, the people on the shore can easily catch up, and then my life will be fatal."

At this time, Mei Qian took the initiative to take the oar from Chang An and let him rest.

Mei Qian, who was standing on the bow of the boat, realized that their boat had sailed into a mountainous area.

Mountains and rocks stood on both sides of the bank, and the walls stood thousands of feet high. The river was so fast that Mei Qian's boat would actually go down the river if she didn't use her oars hard enough.

So Mei Qian immediately started rowing with great difficulty. Although it was very slow, the boat was moving forward.

Feeling the rushing water under the boat, Mei Qian suddenly realized that it was no wonder the boat was so rocking before.

Just then, Mei Qian's nose smelled a bit of blood again. She turned her head and saw blood seeping out of Chang An's shoulder again.

"Oh my god, your arms..."

"It's okay, I'll take care of it right now."

Chang'an's wound burst early, but before he could get rid of the group of people, he could only hold on. Now that he has temporarily got rid of them, he can also deal with his own wound.

Looking at the way he skillfully treated the wounds and the old scars that were still vaguely visible on his shoulders, stretching from his shoulders to his chest, Mei Qian asked abruptly:

"Did you often get injured like this when you were fighting against Xirong in Jiangbei?"

Hearing Mei Qian suddenly mention Jiangbei, Chang'an's hand movements paused slightly, and then said: "Yes."

"What's going on over there in Jiangbei now? Why don't you tell me?"

Mei Qian: Please call my brother "God's Kick".

Mei Shitou: _(：3　∠)_Actually, the impact of Chang'an's jump is more powerful.

Chang'an: It was you who kicked the boat away first, and that's why I'm so worried!
Mei Qian:......
