Chapter 5944 The homing pigeon is back
During dinner, a pigeon flew into the main room of the Luo family and stopped on the beam, squinting its small eyes at the family below who were preparing to have dinner.
The family was more excited when they saw the dove than when they saw gold falling from the sky.
Luo Baobao was very agile. He stepped on the stool and jumped up to the roof beam. After grabbing the pigeon, he fell steadily back to the ground.
The family is not surprised by her behavior.
People in the village only thought that Luo Fengtang was a general, so he would occasionally teach his daughter a few physical exercises. They also thought that the girl would practice a few times when she remembered, and no one in the village would pay attention to this.
Actually, only family members know how serious and persistent Luo Baobao is, regardless of the cold or heat, he never relaxes every day.
Although her talent in martial arts is not as good as Chen'er, she is already very good compared to most people.
It’s hard to find a few people in Daqi who can compete with Chen’er in talent. Moreover, he is only thirteen years old, so his room for improvement is worth looking forward to.
The topic returned to Luo Baobao. Yang Ruoqing competed with her and won three out of five games. There was no leakage. She was very satisfied and felt relieved to let her fly over the walls at home.
"Mom, give you the pigeon."
Luo Baobao presented the pigeon to Yang Ruoqing as if it were a treasure, and glanced at the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's ankle.
There seems to be a small note inside, it must be news from my uncle!
"Yes."
Yang Ruoqing took the pigeon, took out the note, and then handed the pigeon back to Luo Baobao: "It is tired, feed it some water and grain, and let it go back to the house. Go to rest.”
"Okay!"
Baby Luo went to do these things with the pigeon's fart in his hands.
She left the main room, and the giant teddy that was squatting at the table and the cat lying on the stool all followed her to the yard.
These little animals in the house are all her good friends, and they follow her wherever she goes.
Everyone at the dinner table remained silent in tacit agreement, their eyes all falling on Yang Ruoqing who was reading the note.
There were only two short sentences on the note. After scanning it, Yang Ruoqing showed a bit of doubt on her face.
"What did it say? Is there any news about Xiao An?" Blacksmith Luo couldn't help but ask.
Yang Ruoqing hesitated for a moment, "A little bit, but I'm not sure."
"Ah? How do you say this?" Blacksmith Luo asked again.
Yang Ruoqing said: "The people I sent came to Juxian Town to inquire about it, but found no trace of Xiao An and He Qingsong."
"Isn't this a good thing? It means they have never been to Juxian Town at all!" Blacksmith Luo said.
Yang Ruoqing said again: "But another group of people I sent to Xiushui Town to inquire about information met with the people who went to Juxian Town and said that Xiaoan and He Qingsong had already done it a few days ago. After finishing their errands, they set off back to Qing'an County. Estimating the time, they should pass near Juxian Town before and after the landslide."
Blacksmith Luo and the others were also confused.
It’s really hard to say. You might be lucky and have already passed through Juxian Town.
But now that we have passed Juxian Town, several days have passed since the landslide, and it is time to reach home.
Since we haven't arrived home, then... no one dares to say anything unlucky, for fear of making Yang Ruoqing more worried.
"Sister, I'll go find Narisong and ask him to prepare and leave at any time."
After saying this, Liu Xueyun stood up and left the yard.
When I arrived in the yard, I heard Luo Baobao's voice: "Uncle, where are you going?" Liu Xueyun was still a little shy about calling him uncle.
"I'm going to see your Uncle Song to discuss things."
"I'll go too."
"Don't you want to eat?"
"No hurry, we'll wait. Let's eat together when we come back. Mom, I went to Uncle Song's house that day."
Yang Ruoqing didn't care about her at all, she answered absentmindedly and sat down to explain things to Blacksmith Luo and the others.
"I will go to Juxian Town early tomorrow morning with Xueyun and Narisong to find Xiaoan. When my parents ask about it later, uncle, please don't tell anyone about the carrier pigeon."
Blacksmith Luo said: "Qing'er, I'll go too. It'll be nice to have more people and helpers."
Yang Ruoqing squeezed out a smile and shook her head: "At home I can’t do without my uncle, not to mention that I have subordinates waiting for me in Juxian Town, who are enough helpers.”
Tuoba Xian pondered for a moment, “Should I follow Feng Tang on this matter? Let me know?”
Yang Ruoqing shook her head decisively: “He is busy with military matters, so don’t tell him about this yet.”
"Okay then." Tuoba Xian also fell silent.
The next day, before dawn, three fast horses left Changping Village kicking up dust and bolted towards Juxian Town in the south.
Eating dry food, drinking water, and even sleeping were all done on horseback. It took three days, really only three days for the three of them to arrive at Juxian Town.
The last time he passed through Juxian Town was several years ago. Yang Ruoqing had a vague impression of this small town located at the foot of the mountain with the official road running through the center.
I only vaguely remember that this town is not big and cannot be compared with Qingshui Town.
The transport team is going to Xiushui Town in the South. When passing through Juxian Town, they can resupply at the inn next to the carriage and horse shop at the entrance of the town.
Although the town is small, it has complete clothing, food, housing and transportation, and the smell of fireworks is very strong.
But at this moment, the desolate land in front of us really looks like a Shura field.
“This flash flood is really terrible. Half of the town was buried.”
That day, Risong was riding on horseback and looking ahead. The rough guy from the north was really cruel. Shocked.
The official road passes through the town, and the rows of houses on the half side next to the foot of the mountain have all turned into flat ground. Mud, stones, and tall trees have covered everything that was originally full of life under the thick soil. .
The house opposite the official road was also affected and a large area collapsed. On these ruins, the remaining people refused to leave and tried every means to move away from the pressure on their relatives and friends. The mountain on the body.
Whether he is alive or dead, we must find him...
"It's too messy here, and it's hard for people from the Yamen to do anything." Risong frowned and said again.
“And this kind of chaotic search can’t be found at all. No one knows what the condition of the house underneath is, and it may cause secondary or tertiary harm. Hey, that’s the point of living at the foot of a mountain. No, mudslides came down after a few heavy rains. Fortunately, our Changping Village is some distance away from the foot of the mountain, but Yujia Village is hard to say..."
Liu Xueyun also looked solemn as he listened to those heart-rending cries.
He did not answer Risong's noisy words, but just withdrew his gaze from the miserable ruins in the distance and fell on Yang Ruoqing.
"Sister, what should we do next?"
They came here on this starry night, not to discuss how to rescue the scene, but to find Xiao An and Xiao An's friends.
Yang Ruoqing also sighed and turned her horse's head, "In my impression, there is a carriage and horse racing shop and an inn at the exit of the town in the direction of Xiushui Town. Let's go and see if we can settle in."
