After traveling for five days, Gu Xue and his party arrived at the gate of Yaocheng.
Looking at the city wall, above the central arch, the words "Yao City" stand there.
Gu Xue recalled the plot in the book.
In the book, the magistrate of Yaocheng was a greedy man who robbed countless people of their wealth and wealth.
He allowed his brother-in-law to bully others, causing complaints among the people under his rule.
The refugees have been stopped outside Xuanzhou City.
Therefore, no refugees passed through Yao City, and Yao City had no orders prohibiting entry and exit.
People like Gu Xue were the first to pass by this place.
Gu Xue called Gu Chun and walked to the village chief.
"Two village chiefs, I just heard from people passing by that a section of the official road outside the South City Gate has collapsed. We have to wait a few more days to enter the city, and wait until the road is cleared before heading south."
Gu Xue told everyone her thoughts.
"Is the source reliable?" Shi Xiucai asked.
"It's reliable. It was said by the boy of the county magistrate's brother-in-law." Gu Xue made a nonsense statement.
Anyway, if the ground sinks, word will spread.
"Is there a place to stay in the city?" Village Chief Shi asked.
Village Chief Yang was also worried: “With so many of us, we have to find a convenient place.”
Gu Xue suggested: "Don't worry, it's just that the official road at the South City Gate cannot be used.
By the forest to the east, we can pitch a tent and rest there. "
Village Chief Shi: "Then let's enter the city quickly."
The villagers from Shitou Village and Yangshu Village lined up behind each other and came to the city gate.
The soldiers guarding the city saw it and wondered who so many of them were.
Fortunately, they all have household registration certificates and there are so many carriages.
Since I could come from Xuanzhou Mansion without being stopped, there would be no problem.
The villagers entered the city smoothly.
There was no time to buy anything, so everyone planned to find a place to rest first.
The Gu Xue family walked at the front, leading the way for everyone.
When they reached the eastern suburbs, they found a forest and camped on the edge.
First, three tents were set up. The older ones went to rest first, and Mrs. Gu also went to rest.
When people started cooking, Gu Xue entered the forest again.
Search for medicinal materials along the way.
They are all gifts from nature, don’t give them away in vain.
Therefore, whenever she gets a chance, she will always pick some medicine.
Forsythia, Panax notoginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng... whatever you see will get into the space.
Then, pour some spiritual water.
After walking for unknown lengths of time, Gu Xue suddenly heard someone calling for help.
She followed the sound and saw a man who was about to be submerged in a swamp.
When the man saw Gu Xue appearing in front of him, it was as if he had seen some treasure.
"Girl, save me, Lin will be deeply grateful for your great kindness." The man said sincerely.
Gu Xue looked around and saw four men lying outside the swamp.
The one in the swamp has sunk down the swamp and reached the shoulder level.
Gu Xue took out the rope from her sleeve, which was actually a space.
Put a loop on one end of the rope and throw it out.
The rope happened to be around the man's shoulders, and the man moved the loop to his armpits.
Then grab the rope with your hand.
Waiting for Gu Xue to tie the other end of the rope to a big tree.
Signaling the man to follow the rope and move forward.
The man pulled the rope and moved it step by step.
Gu Xue saw him gasping for air and his body was shaking with cold.
This is how long it has been since it fell in.
After a few minutes, the man finally climbed up along the rope.
He collapsed to the ground as if from collapse.
After a while, he cupped his hands towards Gu Xue and said, "Thank you, girl, for saving me." Then he took out 3000 taels of silver notes from the bundle scattered on the grass next to him and gave them to Gu Xue.
Gu Xue took it without any politeness and stuffed it into her sleeve.
"If you don't take wealth, you will take your life. You have met an enemy." Gu Xue analyzed seriously.
"The girl guessed it right, it's hard to say."
The man sighed, as if he was stuck in some memory.
Gu Xue glanced at the four men lying on the ground and raised her chin: "These four men are yours and they have been poisoned.
It's the same poison as yours. "
"The girl knows this poison."
"The poison that paralyzes the nerves. You obviously know martial arts, but you can't take any measures when you fall into the swamp. It's the poison that causes nerve paralysis, making you unable to move.
Fortunately you met me, otherwise after a while, you wouldn't even have the strength to hold the rope.
However, because you gave me so much money, I will help you cure this poison. "
With that said, Gu Xue took out a small porcelain bottle, poured out 5 pills, and handed them to the man.
"Thank you. The man took one pill and stuffed the other four pills into the mouths of the four guards."
"You have been unable to move for a long time and are suffering from hypothermia. Let's start a fire and burn a pile of firewood to keep warm.
You take a rest first. "
Then, Gu Xue pulled over all the branches that could be seen around her.
In a moment, there was already a big pile of firewood in front of me.
She used her sleeve to cover herself, took out a lighter, and started a fire.
The man leaned against the fire to keep warm, and did not forget to drag the four guards to the fire.
After about a cup of tea, the four guards slowly woke up.
"Young Master! Thank you very much, Young Master, for the rescue."
"This girl saved me and you," the man added.
Then the four guards all bowed to Gu Xue:
"Thank you benefactor for saving me!"
Gu Xue nodded and motioned for them to get up.
"Sorry, I forgot to ask the girl's name. I won't say anything in Xia Lin." The man handed her over.
"My surname is Gu, and my last name is the character for snow."
"How did you end up falling into the swamp?"
The man stood up and walked back and forth:
"I originally planned to pass through Yaocheng and go south. Unexpectedly, the official road collapsed, so I found a new way.
I learned from a beggar that there was an exit in the woods here, so I looked for it. "
Gu Xue nodded: "That beggar deliberately led you into the forest."
"I feel ashamed to say that I fell into the trap."
"Are you a member of the martial arts world?" Gu Xue asked.
Lin Buyan replied: "Exactly."
"I came from the north and plan to go south. There are more than 100 of us, all from the same hometown. You might as well go with us.
Also, the poison in your body needs to be detoxified every month. I will make this pill.
It’s also convenient for you, fellow travelers. "
The four guards were overjoyed.
The poison to which several people have been exposed occurs once a month.
It was very dangerous, but it was okay to get through it.
If you can't survive it, you will be paralyzed and die.
Lin Buyan said: "That's what I meant."
Gu Xue led a group of people back home.
By the way, a few people also shot some prey and took them away.
Wait until you return to the villager's tent.
Gu Xue first negotiated with the two village chiefs:
"Grandpa Village Chief, these people were the ones I met on the road just now. They were poisoned, and I saved them by the way.
They know martial arts, and they happen to be on our way, so we can go with them. In this way, if we encounter danger, their martial arts skills will come in handy. "
"We don't rule out that they are bad people." Shi Xiucai said.
"We are a group of people fleeing from famine, so there is nothing to worry about." Gu Xue replied.
Shi Xiucai: That’s right, it hurts my heart!
