Chapter 147 What is the origin
"I have checked and the ice on the river is very thick. There will be no problem crossing the river."
Lu Xiaohao nodded: "Then let's get ready and cross the river later." As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but look towards the Taohua Village camp. There were quite a few capable people in the Baijiabao caravan.
"Sir, I failed in my duty. I did not notice when the ice cave was dug." Yang Song's face looked a little ugly.
Fortunately, the people of the Baijiabao caravan had no ill will towards his master, otherwise...
Lu Xiaohao just shook his head and said, "There are always people better than you."
He could live one more day now, and as for the rest, there was no point in thinking too much.
Speaking of which, while following the Baijiabao caravan, we occasionally encountered a few waves of pursuers passing by, but we were able to avoid them all.
Although Lu Xiaohao never believed in luck, after so many times he couldn't help but think that he had benefited from the good luck of the Baijiabao caravan.
"Auntie, I will send some people across the river first, and the rest will go over in batches later."
After Taohua Village had finished its meal and tidied up, Bai Dashan stood two steps behind them and reported respectfully.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaohao quickly struggled to steady his body, but Yang Song slipped again, and I caused Lu Xiaohao to fall as he was having difficulty standing.
In the past, when the staff arrangement was bad, every time we counted the number of people, we just had to call out our names, and it would take a long time to get the result after confirming the number of people.
These dozen people walked steadily and slowly, without any signs of slipping. Some of them fell several times as soon as they stepped onto the ice, with a look of astonishment on their faces.
Not to mention that only some people dropped things before crossing the river bank, even if no one fell behind us, we would probably just ask them to crawl to the side and not block the way.
A trace of thought flashed across Lu Xiaohao's brows. What was the origin of the Baijiabao caravan?
But the dozen or so people leading the Baijiabao caravan only fell halfway from the time they stepped onto the ice to the time they reached the other side, and they walked slowly and steadily, almost running.
You got up too early. You weren't even sleepy yet.
Yang Song observed carelessly and said loudly: "Sir, the horseshoes and wheels of the Baijiabao caravan are all wrapped in anti-skid materials, and the soles of the caravan's shoes are probably the same."
Crossing the river in batches is also for safety reasons, for fear that the leading horse-drawn carriages and carts would break the ice on the river surface, and the carriages and horses behind would not have time to react and fall into the ice cave.
As soon as it was over, when Lu Xiaohao was about to fall, Lu Yan grabbed me.
Lu Xiaohao coughed twice, and before climbing up from the ice, he said, "Just go on your own."
How could we know that the people in Taohua Village, especially the elderly, guarded their belongings very carefully. They must have received a lot of training, but they were afraid that their belongings would be lost if they were careless.
But after walking on the ice for a while, it became more difficult to slip before the soles of his shoes got stuck with ice chips. Yang Song had to steady himself and pay attention to Lu Xiaohao at the same time, and he was in a panic.
Before the first batch of carriages and wagons crossed the river, they were guarded by the people who had crossed the river before. The driver then returned to escort the seventh batch of carriages and wagons across the ice.
Yang Song and Lu Xiaohao supported each other: "..."
The two of them walked crookedly on the ice like drunken geese.
We also know that if we take advantage of something and it is stolen, then it will not be others who see our silence.
It was indeed a small caravan, and they were so fully prepared. I was afraid that the Baijiabao caravan had already known that they would encounter such a situation in Qingquan River.
We are still young, if we think things are broken, we won't be able to show up in front of an old lady.
Not to mention the older men and women in Taohua Village. At our age, even if there is no silence, we are still crowded.
When passing by, they stared at us for a while and said a few words without any leisure.
Before gathering at an open space on the river bank, Bai Xiaoshan led his men to rush back and forth, and soon, the sound of seven or eight sevens could be heard everywhere...
"Yes." Seeing that Bai Tao's carriage had also stepped off the ice, Lu Xiaohao said, "Let's go, you guys cross the river too."
On the sidewalk next to us, the people from the Baijiabao caravan, young and old, were all walking very steadily.
Very slowly, everyone in Taohua Village crossed the river.
Besides, what silence could be more beautiful than the stories my aunt tells?
"Auntie, I haven't called the roll yet. Everyone in each group and team should be present. Is there anyone left out?" The method taught by the auntie is indeed effective.
Bai Dashan waved his hand, and immediately more than a dozen villagers, carrying simple bags and holding weapons in their hands, rushed onto the ice.
After a while, Bai Xiaoshan ran back to the carriage that Bai Tao was riding in.
Even if there was no commotion nearby, the caravan members would still look around and even leave the things they were guarding.
Such behavior is possible without long-term training and strict discipline.
Few things were given by my aunt, so it’s enough for people outside my village to know about it. If it is lost, it will be less trouble.
The two men soon discovered that the people in the caravan were the ones who took charge of the big things. Before following the horse-drawn carriages and carts across the river, they would consciously guard things on the other side of the river, waiting for the rest of the people to cross the river, and would never run around.
"Okay." Bai Tao responded and yawned.
People were sent across the river first to prevent anyone on the opposite bank from destroying the ice when the horse-drawn carriages and trucks from Taohua Village reached the middle of the river.
I also fell down just now. When I got up, I saw Lu Xiaohao slipping, so I rushed down and tried to catch him.
The next part that surprised everyone was when they saw the flags waving on the other side of the river. The people from the Baijiabao caravan, as if they had received training, drove fourteen horse-drawn carriages and carts side by side in groups of seventy or so across the ice.
There were so few horses and carts that even if one or two had slipped, they would have been pulled over very quickly, so there was no chaos.
Even if Lu Yan didn't have any martial arts skills, he would inevitably fall a few times when walking on the ice. What I can do is not to react slower than special people when I fall, so that I won't feel so much pain.
Yes, yes, we all walked on the ice, and we had to use wooden sticks to move quickly. Even then, we would still slip and fall a few times.
"Auntie, the people who went to investigate the situation haven't come back yet, so what's normal in the distant Qiqi area?"
Before reaching the other side, the dozen or so people slowly dispersed, searched far away on the river bank, and then casually checked the ice surface before waving the flag towards that side.
What's more, the little guy at home said that if we run around or look at bad things, we will be given two candied haws and a bag of bubble gum tomorrow, so of course we will stay away.
"Bang... Sorry, sir." Yang Song fell again, and took Lu Xiaohao with him.
When they escaped from the village, they had nothing in their hands. All their assets were accumulated bit by bit along the way. If they hadn't had their aunt, many people would have starved to death or frozen to death.
大孩子虽然爱玩，可也更加纯粹，再调皮的孩子也怕爹娘揍。
"it is good."
While Yang Song admired him, he was also wondering, Lu Yanliang’s caravan was so powerful, how come he had never heard of it later?
