Chapter 54 Debris Flow
Chapter 54 Debris Flow
Little did they know that the group of people intended to eat them as food. Fortunately, just as they had drugged her and the maid, it started to rain, and the rain got heavier and heavier. The group searched all night before finally finding this place.
Before they could do anything, Su Yue and Dali also came to take shelter from the rain, and they ended up fighting.
I don't know whether to say these two are lucky or unlucky.
The two women each took two steamed buns and ate them heartily. The little maid only ate one bun and then stopped. After her mistress finished eating, she handed her own bun over, saying, "Miss, you can have this too. I'm already full after eating one."
"Chuntao, stop lying to me. Eat up, you'll have the strength to take care of me when you're full." The girl who was called "Miss" pushed the steamed bun back to her.
Turning her head, her eyes filled with tears, she began to speak to Su Yue: "I was with my mother when we were separated by refugees on our way back from our ancestral home. My father is the prefect of Dingnan Prefecture. My surname is Shen, and my given name is Lerong. I don't know what my benefactor's surname is?"
Su Yue hadn't expected that this was a daughter of a prefect. She really hadn't realized it at all; her daughter's attire was even worse than her own.
Her hair was so tangled, she probably had more lice than Dali had. Her face was so thin that all that was left was her two big, watery eyes.
"Just call me Su Yue, and call her Dali." Su Yue pointed to Dali, who was still playing in the rain.
Dali thought Su Yue was calling her, so she stuck the sticker on again, almost squeezing Su Yue out.
"I wonder where Miss Su is trying to escape to?" Shen Lerong asked in a low voice, sobbing.
"I don't know, we'll just see where we end up." Su Yue had told Su Dabao that she would keep heading north, but she hadn't run into anyone she knew along the way, and it was even questionable whether that family was still around.
"Since Miss Su doesn't know where to go for the time being, could you come home with Le Rong? My father will definitely reward you handsomely then." Shen Le Rong looked at Su Yue expectantly.
Su Yue thought for a while before asking, "Which direction is Dingnan County in, and how far is it from here?"
Su Lerong pointed north before speaking again, "I asked around a couple of days ago, and it's just two more cities away."
Su Yue herself didn't have a household registration, and judging from Dali's silly appearance, he probably didn't know what a household registration was either. The previous times she went to the city, because they had just started fleeing famine, they only accepted money and no one checked her household registration.
If I were with her, maybe her father could help me and Dali get registered. With the prefect's permission, it would be a piece of cake.
Actually, Su Yue doesn't care whether she has a household registration or not; she can hide in her spatial dimension and not come out, but Dali can't.
"Then you can come along for the time being!" Su Yue pulled Dali's hand away from the rain, not allowing her to continue playing with it.
What was originally a fairly spacious spot for two people has become cramped with four. Su Yue is finding it difficult to even move, and with the rain still pouring down, she's afraid the place might collapse.
Shen Lerong, who was standing next to her, was still sobbing uncontrollably, and her maid Chuntao kept comforting her.
Su Yue was secretly eating fried beans while sticking close to Dali, watching the two of them crying and scratching their heads.
Su Yue was afraid the lice would crawl onto her, so she kept pushing towards Dali. Dali lost his balance and was pushed out.
Just as Su Yue was about to pull Dali out of the rain, she saw Dali wipe the rain off his face and point at the mountain opposite, "The mountain ran away, hehe, the mountain ran away, Miss, come and see, the mountain ran away."
Su Yue was still wondering who Dali was calling "Miss" and who Dali's "Miss" was.
"Dali, who is your mistress? And what mountain did you run off to? Come in quickly, or you'll get leukemia and have to take this dark, bitter medicine."
Dali pointed at Chuntao, then at Shen Lerong.
Su Yue then understood; it turned out that she was imitating Chun Tao's way of calling Shen Lerong.
"You little devil, alright, come in quickly." Su Yue didn't care how Dali called her; she was happy as long as he was pleased.
"The mountain is gone, the mountain is gone..." Dali clapped his hands happily and jumped around in the rain.
The mud splattered from Dali's height and weight landed on Su Yue's face. "Hey, you even jumped up! I'll teach you a lesson!" Su Yue rushed out to pinch Dali's face, but when she turned around, her hand stopped in mid-air.
"Oh my god, this really is a landslide! You two, stop crying, a mudslide is coming, run! Dali, what are you waiting for? Run!"
Shen Lerong, who was still sobbing, stopped crying immediately when Su Yue called out to her. She then saw the two of them running as fast as if they had wheels of fire on their legs.
He quickly grabbed Chun Tao's hand, and when they came out and saw what was happening, they were so scared they almost lost their souls. They didn't care about anything else and ran away!
Su Yue used her lightness skill and flew very fast. Dali had been talking non-stop for the past two days and hadn't exerted much effort, yet he also ran very fast.
The two who tripped and fell every three steps didn't get very far before they were covered in mud.
Su Yue came back to check if Dali had caught up, and found that Dali had. The meaning between the master and servant was self-evident.
The mudslide was about to hit the house where they were sheltering from the rain. They hadn't run very far. If they didn't go to help them, they would definitely be swept away.
Su Yue called out to Dali, who was running behind her, "Dali, you run to that uphill spot and wait. I'll go help the two of them."
Dali thought Su Yue was going to abandon her, so she ran down after her.
Su Yue looked at Dali, who had followed her down again, and angrily cursed Dali as he flew, calling him stupid.
Just as the mudslide nearly swept them away, Su Yue and Dali arrived in time.
It's impossible for her to carry two people with her light-footed skills; she hasn't reached that level yet.
They could only carry one person each to higher ground, as the mudslide drew ever closer, causing them to sweat profusely with anxiety.
The group ran desperately to a small hillside, where Su Yue and Dali finally put the two down, panting heavily as the rolling mudslide brushed past them.
"Thank goodness, if we had been any later we would have been swept away," Shen Lerong said, still shaken.
Su Yueyi didn't care that the ground was covered in mud and water. She sat down on the ground, panting. She was soaked from the rain, and the water clung to her body, feeling cool.
After resting for a while, Su Yue led the three of them to continue uphill until they reached a high and flat area, where they stopped to rest.
You can hear the sound of the mudslide crashing down here, submerging the low-lying road surface and trees in front.
Su Yue and Dali gathered some thicker tree branches nearby and used them to build a rain shelter.
I originally wanted the two masters and servants to help, but seeing how exhausted they were, I decided against it!
Su Yue then taught Dali how to build the shed. By this time, the two of them, who had recovered, came over to help without feeling embarrassed.
Su Yue didn't plan to hide her space anymore. After all, she hadn't had time to disguise herself in her haste to run away. In the future, if anyone had any bad ideas, she would just kill them. If she really couldn't beat them, she would take Dali to live in the deep mountains and then find an opportunity to come back and kill them. Let's see who dares to have bad ideas.
She always believed in a wise saying from the Chinese people: truth lies only within the range of cannons.
Anyone who dares to plot against me will be met with utter chaos and misery.
