Chapter 384 Heading to Dingzhou
Chapter 384 Heading to Dingzhou
The only thing Liu Wei thinks about now is how to smuggle Goo into the city after returning to Beijing.

Such a big bird, let it fly around the city, why not let the guards shoot it down with a sharp slingshot?

On this issue, Liu Wei was helpless, and in the end, without any psychological burden, she left all the mess to Rong Leng.

Rong Leng already had a countermeasure, but they didn't expect that this countermeasure would not be available for the time being.

Because they can't go back to Kyoto.

"The mountain is difficult?"

"Yes, it's a mountain disaster. The whole road is flooded, and the bottom is full of rocks and mud. I heard that there are still some crumbling gravel on the top. If it rains again, the road will probably disappear completely." Driving the donkey With a few words, the peddler of the car explained the road conditions ahead for Rong Leng and the others who planned to move on.

After finishing speaking, he still did not forget to ask: "Are you going to Kyoto?"

Rong Ling nodded.

The peddler said: "If there is something urgent, it is impossible. It will take ten days and a half months at least until the road is cleared, but you can go to Jianyang Mansion, at the west pier of Jianyang Mansion, take the waterway, and go to Ding Zhou, from Dingzhou to Kyoto, although it is a bit far away, it is still a road, and you can still go, but the weather at the moment, you can’t tell what the weather is like at sea, you have to ask the boatman at the pier to find out.”

Rong Leng thanked the peddler, returned to the car, and explained the situation he had asked.

Liu Wei frowned: "Dingzhou?"

Rong Leng grabbed her hand and murmured: "God's will."

Liu Wei pursed her lips tightly and asked, "Is there no other way to go to Kyoto? Only one way?"

"I heard that there is still a small road around the mountain, but in the current situation, the mountain is even more unsafe, and the carriage cannot go across the mountain."

That was quite troublesome.

Liu Wei struggled: "Then there are only two ways to wait or go to Dingzhou?"

Rong Ling nodded.

Liu Wei also wanted to go to Dingzhou, but Liu Wei was concerned about Yan Pei's condition.

It stands to reason that during the treatment period, the doctor should be by the patient Yan Pei's side all the time. She has been out for such a long time this time, and she has brought a little risk, but at the time she thought that the delay would not last long, who knew that she would be busy in Qinshan Mansion for nearly a month. Now she probably finished the medicine she left for Yan Pei.

At least, she will send some medicine back so that Yan Pei can last for a while.

Liu Wei explained the trouble, Rong Leng pondered for a moment, raised his head, and looked at the little eagle flying high in the sky.

An hour later, Liu Wei made sure that the medicine bag tied to Cuckoo's leg was tight enough, so she turned her head and told Pearl: "You have to watch Cuckoo, it has never left Qinshan Mansion, and it can't find its way, you have to Take it with you, and bring it back with you, remember?"

Pearl let out a "Jie" out of interest.

Seeing Pearl's appearance, Liu Wei was a little worried.

I'm not afraid that Pearl will get lost.

Pearl has been with Liu Wei for so many years, but Liu Wei still knows that the bird's journey can be remembered for a lifetime.

When they came to Qinshan Mansion, they were in the car below, and the pearl was flying all the way in the sky to play, not to mention letting it go back to the capital now, even if it was going back to Qujiang Mansion, it would probably be able to find it by itself.

Liu Wei was worried that Pearl would not like Cuckoo, so she deliberately threw Cuckoo away on the way.

Anyway, Cuckoo is giving them something, and there is something to be done for nothing.

Besides, Cuckoo was abandoned by his parents since he was a child, and later by the sparrow family. Since they took in Cuckoo, they can't abandon Cuckoo again.

So Liu Wei repeatedly urged, poking Pearl's little head, so that Pearl would never be ungrateful!
Pearl said yes, and flapped her wings weakly, and flew towards the sky.

Cuckoo hurriedly followed, and while flying, he was still behind Pearl's buttocks, yelling immaturely: "Cuckoo——"

After the matter of the medicine was settled, Rong Leng and the three changed their way and went to Jianyang Mansion.

Qinshan Mansion and Jianyang Mansion both belong to Yangzhou.

From Qinshan Mansion to Jianyang Mansion, the right way is to go out of the city from the east, pass through six counties, and dozens of villages.

According to the journey of the carriage, it would take about three days at the fastest. After arriving at the West Wharf of Jianyang Mansion, they could turn to Dingzhou by water without entering the city.

Even if Yangzhou and Dingzhou live next to each other, it will take at least three more days to get to Guyong Mansion in Dingzhou by water.

But this is already the fastest way.

Once the route is set, start moving forward.

But maybe because the weather here was really too bad, they arrived at the Jianyang Mansion Wharf and boarded the boat smoothly, but within half a day after boarding, something went wrong.

"The wind is blowing." There were 13 people on board, including eight passengers and five boatmen.

One of the boatmen stood at the bow of the boat, hurriedly pulled up his collar, ran into the cabin, and shouted: "It's so windy, brother, what should I do?"

Hearing this, the boatman ran to the side of the cabin and took a look outside, and sure enough, he saw that it was raining heavily outside. Looking at it like this, it is estimated that if the wind gets stronger after a while, it will capsize the boat.

"Go back to the pier and turn around!" The boatman gave an order quickly.

When the eight passengers who were having dinner in the cabin heard it, one of them, a woman with two children, jumped up: "I can't return, I'm going to Guyong Mansion!"

The boatman glared at the woman: "The wind is too strong, there will be heavy rain tonight, so we can't get through."

"I don't care, I paid the money, you have to send me there!" The woman took a child in one hand, said fiercely, and said, holding the child, went outside to yell at the boatman who was turning around: "Don't return to the voyage!" , Where is the wind so strong? I'm going to Guyong Mansion, you black ship, send me to Guyong Mansion!"

The other passengers couldn't stand it anymore.

A businessman frowned and said to the woman: "Don't worry, sister-in-law. There are always dangers on the water. The boatman has been sailing for many years, so naturally he has a set of methods to judge the wind and rain on the sea. When we go out, it is natural. Safety is the most important thing, my sister-in-law should come back and sit first, it only takes half a day to sail, and it will not take two days to go back to Jianyang Mansion and wait for the weather to clear up, besides, it is also for the good of the children."

"Who are you, how are my mother and son, I deserve your talk!" The woman couldn't stop the boatman, turned her head, and yelled at the consoling businessman.

The businessman froze for a moment, and frowned a little: "I'm doing it for the benefit of the two children. If something happens, we adults can say, what should we do with the three children?"

The businessman said, pointing to another table where two men and a little boy were dining.

The little boy who was suddenly called raised his palm-sized face, with round grape-like eyes, he looked at the businessman, then at the woman, and at the two children beside the woman, blinking his big eyes .

The woman also took a look at this side, her eyes were full of indifference: "I will protect my child, as for other families, I don't have to worry about it! I am different from some people, I have to take care of everyone's business."

The businessman heard the woman talking too much, put the thick bowl on the table, and turned to look at the last passenger in the corner.

The man had a hat on his head, his back was facing the crowd, he was wrapped in a thick cotton coat, and he was burying his head, struggling to pick up the rice.
