Chapter 27
After a few days of rest, the group continued on their way.
As we go further back, the houses gradually become dilapidated and scattered. They are all adobe houses. It is obvious that they are different from the prosperous towns and become more and more barren and backward.There are also far fewer people on the streets, and there are even fights for food on the streets.
"Okay, okay, give us something to eat."
"Very hungry, very hungry..."
"Well-wishers passing by, please give me a stutter."
"..."
Passing by a small town, you can see some scantily clad and skinny beggars squatting in the corner begging. Many doors in the whole town are closed, and there is not much popularity.
The carriage came slowly, and immediately attracted the attention of many people, especially the eyes of those beggars, who seemed to be shining when they landed on the carriage.
"What's going on? Why does it look lifeless here?"
Song Qingyou lifted the curtain of the car to look at the situation outside, but then withdrew his hand after a while, frowning and muttering.
Although Xiao Qishu's body was treated by Song Qingyou, the sepsis in his body did not recover so quickly, so he still looks pale and very weak at this moment.
Hearing Song Qingyou's murmur, Xiao Qishu only said something lightly.
"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, just be careful."
"Ah."
The two fell silent, and the carriage soon stopped at the gate of the post station.
Song Qingyou helped Xiao Qishu enter the post station. After the officials immediately found a seat and sat down, the waiter immediately stepped forward and started greeting them.
"I'll go outside later to see if there is a pharmacy and buy some medicine."
Song Qingyou and Xiao Qishu said something, and Xiao Qishu nodded in agreement.
The people in the big room wanted to talk to Song Qingyou before, but after being fooled by Song Qingyou, they looked at her with a little more fear now.
After all, the Xiao family has become exiles now, but there are still people taking care of Song Qingyou behind her. If she offends people severely, maybe the people behind her will take action against them.
While several people were making their own calculations, there was a loud noise outside the door. Everyone looked around and saw a group of ragged beggars squeezing in towards the inn.
"Get out, this is not a place for you, get out!"
Xiaoer Xu had seen such a scene before, and immediately calmed down and rushed forward, but this time there were more beggars than usual, and Xiaoer couldn't drive them out at all.
The officials stood up one after another and glared at the group of beggars with vigilance. The bearded man directly called the station manager and asked him to find a way to deal with it quickly and not to disturb their rest.
However, before the steward could dispatch the beggars, a commotion broke out among the group of beggars, and then all the beggars rushed in and rushed directly towards Song Qingyou and the others.
"Eat, give me something to eat!"
"Grab it, I'm going to die anyway, even if I die, I'll be a hungry ghost!"
Some of the beggars were shouting loudly. When they rushed in, their eyes gleamed when they saw the food. Even if it was the food placed on the tables of the officials, they would not be afraid of death and rushed to grab it.
The bearded man immediately drew his sword and threatened, and the other officials did the same. Only then did the beggars be pushed back a little bit, but Song Qingyou's side was not so lucky.
In the chaos, the dry pancake in Xiao Ningning's hand was spotted by the beggar, and he was about to snatch it. Xiao Ningning immediately protected the dry pancake in his arms, and shouted anxiously.
"Go grab Song Qingyou, she has delicious food, and she has a lot of money, grab her instead of mine!"
Following the direction of Xiao Ningning's fingers, the beggars around her immediately noticed Song Qingyou. When they saw the steamed buns in her hand, they immediately changed direction and rushed towards Song Qingyou.
Song Qingyou's face changed, and he cursed secretly in his heart.
Damn it!It seems that the lesson given to Xiao Ningning was not enough, and at this time, the trouble was brought to the east and caused such trouble for himself!
Thinking in his heart, Song Qingyou's mind also started to turn rapidly, thinking about how to deal with the current situation.
"careful!"
There was a low cry in his ears, and Song Qingyou suddenly came back to his senses. He felt his body being pulled and instinctively pushed back a few steps.
As soon as she stood still, Xiao Qishu's figure was already standing in front of her, directly attacking the beggar who rushed over.
Although Xiao Qishu used to be a brave man, now he suffers from physical illnesses and leg injuries. When facing these beggars, he will inevitably be shackled. pale.
Seeing that Xiao Qishu was difficult to deal with, the beggars immediately picked up the bench on the ground and patted Song Qingyou who was being protected by him. Seeing that the bench was about to fall on Song Qingyou, Xiao Qishu was startled, and immediately Turning around, he blocked the beggar's blow with his back, then endured the pain, raised his leg and kicked the beggar flying.
No one expected that a man who looked so sick could be so brave. The beggars all became hesitant for a while. At the same time, the officials also got angry and directly drew their swords and wounded several people. The riot was suppressed.
After all, the beggars were still afraid of death, so they fled away one after another, and the farce subsided.
After confirming that it was safe, Xiao Qishu shook his body and fell down first, as if he had let go of all his strength.
Song Qingyou quickly supported him, and pulled the bench on the ground for him to sit down.
"Let me see your injury."
Song Qingyou was a little anxious, thinking that in the critical situation just now, Xiao Qishu actually protected her behind him regardless of his own safety, and in the end even got knocked on the bench, she couldn't help but feel anxious, for fear that something would happen to Xiao Qishu .
"Are you stupid? Even though you are still very weak, you still try to protect me... Those people just want to grab some food, so just give it to them..."
Although Song Qingyou complained, she couldn't help but feel a strong emotion in her heart.
Although this person didn't say much along the way, he always stood by her side to protect her, and now he even ignored his own safety to protect her. Such behavior made Song Qingyou's heart ripples.
After calming down, Song Qingyou carefully checked Xiao Qishu's body and found that he was not seriously injured. Then he pretended to dig in his arms and took out the blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine that he had just redeemed from the space. Gave it to Xiao Qishu to eat.
"The people in your station are so useless that even beggars dare to break in?"
As soon as he put down the water bowl, Song Qingyou heard the bearded voice angrily scolding the manager of the inn, so he paid more attention to the situation there.
According to the steward, the beggars here are refugees from other places. They all gather and live in the slums on the outskirts of the town. They come to the street to beg every day. I don't want to get bad luck, many shops on the street have closed their doors recently, thinking about waiting for these beggars to leave.
Who would have thought that these beggars are so bold that they don't even pay attention to officials?
The bearded man scolded several times, but there were no beggars to vent his anger on him, so he could only suppress his anger and let the steward arrange for everyone to stay.
Song Qingyou thought about leaving soon, and didn't take this matter to heart, but something happened at night.
