Luan and Phoenix Tribulation: A Concubine Becomes a Phoenix

Chapter 323 Huainan Scene
In those days, Feng Shijin either showed her shoulders or bare legs at night, and Jun Qianji couldn't sleep well.During the day, Feng Shijin found that the travel notes and miscellaneous books he often read were really interesting, so he sat by the window to read, while Jun Qianji changed with her and went to bed to catch up on sleep.

The boat went all the way south and passed through the Miaomiao River. In January, it seemed as if it slipped across the river, and passed by without paying attention.

Feng Shijin didn't feel that the life on this boat was hard at all, on the contrary, he felt a different kind of freshness every day.

Every time the ship arrived at a pier along the road, it would stop to replenish daily supplies. During the short time of berthing, Feng Shijin and Jun Qianji were able to go to the streets near the pier to learn about the local customs and customs. Walking along the way is also rewarding.

More than a month later, the two arrived in Huainan.

The passenger ship they were on did not stay at the pier for long, and was about to return to Bianliang.However, when the two got off the boat, they were shocked by the sight of the pier. They saw a sea of ​​people on the pier, and they seemed to want to leave by boat.Most of them were poor people, some of them were in rags, and when they saw the boats docking, they made a commotion, and no one stepped forward to maintain order.

Not only was Feng Shijin shocked, but the other passengers on the boat were also terrified.

The boatmen on board are all shirtless and strong.They gathered at the pier before the passengers disembarked, and what they held in their hands were no longer oars or sailcloth, but long and coldly gleaming knives, reflecting the harsh light of the knives in the sun.

The owner of this boat also stood up and ordered cursingly: "With so many people, don't they want to sink Lao Tzu's boat? You are all guarded by me, and no one is allowed to be put on board. Just pay when you get on the boat, not a penny less! If you don’t have money, throw it into the water! Also, clear the way and let the guests on the boat get off the boat first!”

Ever since, the boatmen guarded between the boat and the pier, and made a way for the boat passengers to disembark, otherwise those people would swarm up, and they would have to be squeezed into meatloaf.

Those boatmen had knives in their hands, and the people waiting to get on the boat didn't dare to do anything wrong, they were just eager to move.

I don't know if it's because of the heat from the sun or if such a spectacular scene is too frightening, a thin layer of sweat broke out in Feng Shijin's palms.Jun Qianji held her hand and told her silently: Don't be afraid.

When Feng Shijin looked up, they were all heads. The first impression they gave Feng Shijin was not like ordinary people who were about to go on a long journey, but more like...refugees.

Huainan is fertile and well-known as a land of fish and rice in the Jin Dynasty. A large part of the people here are honest farmers. Now that spring is the time for farming, how can they have free time to travel far?
Feng Shijin's temples twitched twice, and her heart also twitched. Of course, she remembered the flood in Huainan during the spring and autumn years ago. Could it be that the impact has not been eliminated yet?However, Shangjing is clearly a scene of peace and tranquility, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and there is no news about Huainan!
Between the passenger ship and the pier, a long wooden ladder was built, and Jun Qianji led Feng Shijin, who was restless, to the end of the wooden ladder.Together with the other passengers on the ship, even the guests who live in the next room on the ship, in terms of clothing, they are full of wealth for these Huainan people.

The way they looked at the passengers who got off the ship was full of hatred and hatred, which made people shudder.

After walking down the wooden ladder, there were no boatmen with knives on both sides to escort them, and the crowd in front of them was not so well-behaved, and even blocked the way, making it impossible to open the way at all.

Jun Qianji and Feng Shijin walked in the front.Under such circumstances, apart from the two of them, no one would want to be at the forefront.However, there are disadvantages and advantages of walking in the front. The advantage is that you can get out of the sea of ​​suffering early. Once these people on the pier get crowded and fight because they want to board the boat, those who walk behind are more likely to suffer.

A drop of sweat quietly slid down Feng Shijin's forehead, she held Jun Qianji's hand tightly, not daring to relax in the slightest, and she didn't even dare to raise her hand rashly to wipe the sweat from her forehead.Three circles were stuffed into her bag by her, probably feeling that the atmosphere outside was very oppressive, it didn't dare to move too much, it just shivered inside.

When they walked into the middle of the crowd, the smell of sweat from the people around them was really unpleasant.Jun Qianji and Feng Shijin endured it in their hearts and did not show anything on their faces, but the boat passengers behind, who came from Shangjing, inevitably felt disgusted, and some even covered their mouths and noses.

On the other side of the ship, when all the passengers had gone down, the people on the pier were struggling to move forward.The boss on the boat opened his throat and shouted loudly: "Don't crowd, board the boat one by one!"

Even though he said so, it completely changed the taste in the ears of the people below.They thought it meant that the people on the boat had come down, and they could finally board the boat and leave this ghost place.Ever since, everyone didn't care about the three sevens and two ones, and squeezed upwards, even the knife in the boatman's hand could no longer act as a deterrent.

For a while, the wooden ladder was full of people. In order to get on the boat first, the people on the wooden ladder started arguing and pushing each other, and those who couldn't stand were pushed into the water immediately.

Seeing this, the owner of the boat owner was frightened.Those boatmen are used to pulling the rods and paddling, even if they have knives in their hands, they are afraid of cutting people.The boss backed away again and again in fright, and hurriedly asked the boatman to retreat, and took the wooden ladder away.He doesn't want to carry any of these savage to crazy people!
It's a pity it's late.

Those people squeezed up desperately, and the people behind went forward one after another, wishing they could all squeeze into this boat.The entire pier suddenly became extremely chaotic.

Feng Shijin and Jun Qianji struggled against the current, and she had no power to resist.Fortunately, Jun Qianji has been holding her hand tightly, sometimes protecting her from side to side, so that she will not be crushed by the crowd.

Seeing that the two were about to successfully break through, the people behind became more anxious and restless because they couldn't squeeze into the boat.They looked at Feng Shijin and Jun Qianji with hatred in their eyes. They felt that Feng Shijin and Jun Qianji and his party were blocking their way, and they felt that these well-dressed and rich people didn't understand their poverty at all. The sorrow of the people!This is the rich man's wine and meat smelly road with frozen bones!

They were in rags, but those who got off the boat were in fine clothes!

They didn't have a full meal for days and didn't have a hot bath to take a bath. And these people who got off the boat lived a pampered life in that place in the capital. How dare they despise them here, thinking that Huainan is still the rich place it used to be?
Feng Shijin was wearing a light purple dress, coupled with her appearance, she was extremely eye-catching. Others didn't know her origin, but they thought she was not an ordinary lady when they saw her clothes.

Being squeezed in the crowd, she attracted a lot of looks, and even when she heard embarrassing words, she gritted her teeth and held back.

If you can't hold your breath, it's easy to make a big mess.
