Don't worry about traveling through time, she has an all-powerful senior sister to help her

Chapter 150 A few times

"We are safe now. Look, the Tongzhi has sent cavalry to support us." Zhang Xiaobing felt guilty when facing her. He never expected that the kidnapper had a bow and arrow. Even though they were old items discarded by the garrison, they were still very lethal when thrown from a high place.

Shen Lingzhu was terrified at the moment, and she slowly calmed her trembling heartbeat: "I hope so.

There were nine of us, five were injured, three carts, six mule carts, and two donkey carts, half of them were killed or injured.

Next, if you can't stand any more setbacks, can you return to Shouyang?"

Only she, her uncle, Dahuai and Li Laojunhu were not injured. Uncle Qi and the other three were covered in blood, but fortunately they were all alive.

She had just asked Mr. Li, this place is still a hundred miles away from Bingzhou City, and only more than forty miles back to Shouyang.

"Don't worry, I will report the truth and then I'll change horses and hurry on.

But I can't decide which direction to go." Zhang Xiaobing's own men were also injured. He really wanted to ask Shen Lingzhu for help bandaging them, but seeing her brother injured and several others also injured, he didn't dare to mention it.

Shen Lingzhu's face flashed with anger when he heard this. "You're already injured and you still want us to be bait?"

She should have known that when the superiors manipulated the chess pieces, they did not consider the wishes of the chess pieces.

"Xiao Zhuzi, it hurts. Please bandage my wound again." Shen Xianzhu heard her question and left his injured uncle behind and quickly came over to pull her away.

Shen Lingzhu asked him to squat down so that she could check him again. He said, "It's okay. We are not seriously injured."

Seeing his sister suddenly burst into tears and apologize to him, he hurriedly wiped her tears and asked, "What does this have to do with you?"

"If I hadn't taken the initiative to mention it to Mr. Han and naively wanted to borrow their power, we wouldn't have been involved in such a dangerous matter." Shen Lingzhu could now understand why her senior sister was not in a hurry to step forward when encountering problems.

No matter how much you have seen in another world, it is just seeing, not experiencing.

They are just ordinary people. They don't have any domineering aura that can make people bow down to them, nor will there be a noble person who will suddenly appear from the sky to help you rise to the top.

"Brother, I'm afraid something might happen to you." She was really scared. These were human lives.

Shen Xianzhu sighed softly, shook his head at Uncle Huang who came running over, and held his sister in his arms, "Without their invisible power, Uncle Qi would still be in jail right now.

Believe it or not, Mr. Wang will not stop until he has taken all the silver we have on us."

"Xiao Zhuzi, you were so brave just now. Uncle Qi was lying under the car, wishing he could die in your place.

Why are you crying now?" Shen He bandaged his hand and came over.

Shen Xianzhu said, "She was just too hot-blooded just now. She was still frightened when she saw the bloody scene after the fight. She is just a child after all."

"Do you want to collect your soul?" Shen He put away his teasing tone and looked again at Shen Lingzhu who was lying in his arms without looking up.

He often subconsciously thought that the big and small bamboos were adults, but only then did he realize that the small bamboo was not even as tall as Xianzhu's chest.

"Little Bamboo?" Huang Zongqi was also very worried. He just checked and found that everyone shot by his niece was shot in the leg and was not fatal.

"The people we shot have been captured alive, and you didn't kill anyone." He thought she shot someone to death out of fear.

After venting for a while, Shen Lingzhu was able to control her emotions. She knew how much she weighed. After wiping her tears on her brother's clothes, she raised her head and said, "My strength is not enough to hit the vital points.

I'll check on the injuries of the other uncles."

"No, no, some of them got scratched after crawling under the car, and some got injured after rolling into the ditch.

Except for Xianzhu, no one was hit by the arrow. ” As soon as Huang Zongqi finished speaking, Shen Xianzhu coughed lightly. He was the one who reacted the slowest and lay down the last.

In order to ease his eldest brother's embarrassment, Shen Lingzhu suggested that everyone quickly help clean up the aftermath and wait for Zhang Tongzhi to send someone to take them away.

The dead and injured animals were handed over to Zhang Xiaobing and his men for disposal.

While packing up the carriage and goods, Shen He said, "It's a good thing Xiao Zhuzi insisted on staying in Shouyang with people and goods. Look at the carriage that has flipped into the ditch. It won't be able to leave for a while."

"There are more than 200 bellows on this car, and dozens of them were smashed." Although no one was hurt, Huang Zongqi also felt sorry for the things.

He said, "Seventh Brother He, do you think it can be repaired?"

Shen He: "Most of them are fine." He picked up the one with a hole in it and was about to disassemble and reassemble it when a fast horse came galloping over.

When Huang Zongqi saw that it was Tangqi, his heart trembled. He couldn't help but look towards the brother and sister who were bandaging the wounded in close combat not far away.

"Brother Huang, this is to notify us to leave." Shen He also wanted to go back to Shouyang.

But the result disappointed him and Shen Lingzhu, and Zhang Tongzhi asked them to continue moving towards Bingzhou.

Shen Lingzhu dropped the cloth she was cutting and asked Zhang Xiaobing, "Let's not talk about the injuries. These cars also need to be repaired. Are we supposed to walk a hundred miles on foot?"

Others might be able to do it, but she is not willing to try to reach a long distance with her little feet because she does not have the necessary hardware.

"All the intact horses are for you to use to tie up the goods." Zhang Xiaobing tried to persuade him, "The Tongzhi is not only looking for you, but also for two other groups of caravans that will depart at different times.

At present, we and the team in front of us are the only ones who have been attacked. No one can guarantee that there will be no fish that have escaped the net.

Letting you go to the capital is also to ensure your safety."

"I don't believe it." Shen Lingzhu looked at him straight.

Shen Xianzhu didn't believe it either. He pulled Zhang Xiaobing aside and said, "Brother Zhang, please tell me something."

As she spoke, she took his hand and handed him a small purse filled with silver.

Zhang Xiaobing refused and came back. When he was with the Shen family, they treated him with no disrespect at all. Especially the two younger ones, who heard that he had also participated in the defense of the capital, always looked at him as if he were a hero: "Mr. Shen, I..." He hesitated for a few breaths, whispered two words, and turned to walk away.

Shen Xianzhu stood there in a daze, clutching his purse. Shen Lingzhu finished bandaging the wound and ran over to ask, "Brother, what did he say?"

"Medicinal wine."

"Ok?"

"He said medicinal wine."

"Ours?" Shen Lingzhu thought something was wrong. After a few days of observation, Zhang Tongzhi must have discovered the benefits of alcohol.

She slapped her forehead several times. "We've gotten into trouble saving someone. Their interest in our wine might just be an excuse."

Shen Xianzhu pressed her hand and said, "Second sister hid this thing before, it makes sense!"

"If he wants it, we can tell him how to make it. Why does he have to go to the provincial capital?" If she wanted to go to Bingzhou simply to do business, she would be willing to do so.

"Or maybe he's worried that his own people can't do it." Shen Xianzhu had never expected that Zhang Tongzhi also liked the first aid techniques of the brother and sister, which was an alternative behavior of seeking talents.

"Xiao Zhuzi, do you remember the detailed preparation steps?" He just helped out at the time and did not follow up any further.

"Remember, the steamer my second sister made was very crude. I hope they can provide special items." Shen Lingzhu said this because her senior sister had told her when she bought the liquor that distillation technology was already used in the current brewing process.

Therefore, it is not only the talents of later generations who enjoy these benefits. Our ancestors developed many advanced production tools early on.

Unfortunately, due to one reason or another, some skills have been lost.

"I also hope that there will be no other accidents along the way." Shen Lingzhu discussed with his elder brother that it would be best if the experienced Li Laojunhu continued to lead the team.

Today, he was responsible for arranging the formation and controlling the speed, so that everyone could support each other to a certain extent when attacked.

Shen Xianzhu had no objection. "Tonight, don't take turns guarding. You must get enough rest."

Fortunately, the two prisoners were combined into one, and Zhang Xiaobing had enough additional manpower, so they did not encounter any more attacks on the way.

It is worth mentioning that when they passed a fork in the road, they saw traces of fighting, and there was much more blood on the ground than when they fought yesterday.

Shen Lingzhu tried not to look at it, so as not to be reminded of her previous experience and affect her mood.

She focused more on the scenery, and occasionally she could hear her elder brother reciting poems and talking about the mountains and rivers with his book bag hanging over his shoulder.

It allows her to have a more vivid and concrete understanding of the words "mountains and rivers inside and outside".

It was two days later when they successfully arrived at Bingzhou City. It was not because they did not want to go faster, but because too many prisoners were injured, which delayed everyone's journey.

With Zhang Xiaobing and others leading the way, they entered the city gate unimpeded.

"The thickness of Bingzhou's city wall is comparable to that of our Baozhou." Huang Zongqi sighed sincerely as he passed through the city wall.

Shen Xianzhu and Shen Lingzhu said in unison: "This has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times."

Once they entered the city, it was no less lively than Baozhou. If they hadn't been following the government troops, it would have been difficult for them to move too fast.

When they were near the camp, Zhang Xiaobing turned his horse and came over: "I'll take you to the inn."

"Cloth and horses, count them before you leave." Shen Xianzhu thought it would be best to distinguish between you and me.

Zhang Xiaobing: "You can deal with the cloth yourselves and exchange it for some animals and carts. Feed the horses and return them to us later."

"We won't need more than a hundred." Shen Lingzhu was determined not to have any extra ones.

The two siblings called out to each other, and everyone picked out enough cloth to offset the number of vehicles, donkeys, and mules.

They also rented vehicles from the streets and no longer used military horses.

Zhang Xiaobing and others watched their series of operations, looked at each other in confusion, and had to take away the soldiers, horses, and remaining cloth.

The inn where Shen Lingzhu and his friends were arranged to stay was near the city wall, far away from the camp.

Out of curiosity, Shen Xianzhu asked Zhang Xiaobing and found out that there was a winery next to the inn they were staying in.

"Mr. Shen, Miss Shen, the Tongzhi means that you can go to a secluded room in the winery to make medicinal wine." Zhang Xiaobing also said that after they washed up and rested for a night, he would take them to the next room tomorrow.

As soon as he left, Li Laojunhu asked, "Master Shen, do you need me to find Qianhu's friends?"

"If Captain Chen has other instructions, you can go and visit him.

As for our matter, it's settled and there's no need to mention it again." Shen Xianzhu was unwilling to accept any more favors.

Li Laojunhu understood his meaning and said, "Then I will just send a visiting card and a gift from Qianhu."

"Grandpa Li, do you need someone from us to accompany you?" Shen Lingzhu felt that since they were in an unfamiliar place, it would be better for them to have someone to look after them when traveling in pairs, although she knew that the old military household was familiar with Bingzhou.

Old Li Junhu thought about it and asked Dahuai to go with him.

As a result, Shen He also wanted to follow, and he said: "It's just right to ask Uncle Li to take me to the cattle and horse market to buy a car."

Their broken carts were abandoned halfway and sent away by Zhang Tongzhi's men after cleaning up the battlefield. As for where they were sent, no one knew.

"Okay, by the way, let me ask them if they have any bellows to use." It was still early, and Shen Lingzhu wanted to go out for a walk.

Of course, she also had a chance. After washing up, in addition to leaving a few people to guard the luggage, she and her elder brother and uncle also had to find the address to send a visiting card to her uncle's classmate.

"The Tongpan also lives in the yamen. Doesn't he have a private house?" After finding a place to submit the visiting card, Shen Lingzhu discovered that it was the Bingzhou government office.

Since many provincial-level government offices, such as the provincial administration office, the provincial commissioner's office, and the provincial commissioner's office, were all located in the city, the government office was not so conspicuous.

"It depends on the size of the local government office. If it occupies a small area, you will naturally have to live outside.

However, as long as there is enough space, many people choose to live in the official hospital behind the yamen.

It's convenient for going to the government office, working on duty, and hiring people." Shen Xianzhu meant that the money spent on buying a private house was his own, and he didn't have to pay for all the expenses of living in a public housing.

Shen Lingzhu understood, "Brother, try to pass the county government exam in one try.

Then we will win the autumn exam and fight in the spring exam until we enter the palace exam."

"Speak human language." Huang Zongqi patted her bun lightly.

Shen Lingzhu had to translate for herself: "It's great to pass the imperial examination and become an official."

"Just tell the truth." Huang Zongqi protected the two of them as they left. The visiting card might not be responded to.

However, he still asked the two children: "Should we buy some more gifts?"

Some local specialties in the car, such as walnuts and wolfberries, were not damaged, but the wine we had originally planned was gone. In case the other party is willing to let me meet in person, the gift cannot be too shabby.

"Buy it, be prepared." Since we are here, we must be prepared. The silver bills on Shen Lingzhu have not been touched yet.

"Let's go and have a look at the fresh tea shop in front." When delivering tea, it is never out of the ordinary. Shen Xianzhu took the lead and walked towards the tea shop.

Shen Lingzhu raised her hand but didn't stop the person. She whispered, "The tea here must be more expensive than in Baozhou."

When I went in and asked the price, it was indeed much more expensive than Baozhou.

Shen Xianzhu was hesitating whether to buy it when someone came down from upstairs.

And when he saw the three of them, he smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, Miss Shen, I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."

"Master Wang." The brother and sister, along with Huang Zongqi, bowed to Master Wang.

The latter smiled in return, "Whatever you want, I'll ask Boss Deng for a discount."

The boss beside him also bowed and said, "You are my friend, Mr. Deng, and I will give you whatever you like to drink."

"Thank you both for your kindness. We thought the vases in your store were nice, so we came in to see which cellar they were from." Shen Xianzhu didn't want to take advantage, so after a few words, the three of them left quickly.

After watching them leave, Mr. Wang Erye quickly said goodbye and asked his confidant to check their whereabouts in Bingzhou.

He also specifically instructed us to just investigate the matter and not to follow them too closely.

Shen Lingzhu didn't know what Wang Erye had done. She just sighed, "Just buy some pens and ink. The premium won't be much higher."

As a result, the three of them met a completely unexpected person in the pen and ink shop.
