Chapter 213 Ask
Seeing this, Zhou Youfeng didn't say much. He turned around and helped push the cart forward.
Huo? led the team in front and walked all the way to the north gate of the city. He unexpectedly discovered that the soldier guarding the city was an old acquaintance, the soldier who helped Plague to call Han Ping that day.
Seeing Huo and his group, the officer greeted them, "Brother Huo, where are you going?"
"The water in the city is too hard to drink. Let's go to another place." Huo stopped the carriage and said to him.
After hearing this, the officers and soldiers said calmly, "Isn't it like this during a rainstorm?"
Then he added, "If you go out now, you may not be able to find such a safe place."
"It's okay, let's take it one step at a time." Huo said nonchalantly, "Can you open the city gate now and let us out?"
"Okay, but it's quite chaotic outside, so be careful." The soldiers kindly reminded Huo? as they were preparing to open the city gate for them.
"Thanks for the reminder." Huo said.
After the man opened the city gate, Huo drove out in his carriage, followed closely by Old Man Zhou and the others.
The officers and soldiers watched them leave and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Are all capable people so eccentric? They just left without worrying about any accidents."
Then he closed the city gate again with a sigh.
On the city wall, Han Ping was checking the situation outside the city as usual.
A few days ago, the late emperor passed away suddenly without even giving anyone a chance to react. He just passed away like that.
At that time, it was impossible to issue a notice because of heavy rain for several days. It was not posted until the weather cleared up.
The previous emperor passed away suddenly and no crown prince was appointed in time. Now the court is undergoing a major power reshuffle. He is unwilling to get involved in these struggles. He will be loyal to whoever becomes emperor in the future.
So when he had nothing to do every day, he would come to the city wall or go to distribute relief food to maintain order.
The weather today is exceptionally sunny, even the sky is a picturesque blue. If you ignore the mud on the ground, it would be hard to tell that it rained so heavily a few days ago.
However, when he looked into the distance, several familiar figures suddenly came into his sight.
After seeing who that person was, he immediately ran downstairs and headed towards the city gate.
Huo Zheng was driving slowly when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind.
So he stopped the carriage and looked behind him.
Then they saw Han Ping running towards them, calling Huo Yu's name.
Seeing this, Huo Yu reined in his horse and stopped where he was. When he came over, he jokingly said, "Commander Han, there's no need to be so polite. I don't need you to see me off."
After Han Ping stood firm, he ignored Huo Yu's teasing and asked, "Why are you leaving at this time?"
Huo? didn't beat around the bush when he heard this. He had been selling melons in the city recently, and Han Ping had helped him a lot, so it wouldn't hurt to tell him the news.
So he said directly: "There is a problem with the water in the city, and there is also a problem with the rain."
"What's the problem?" Han Ping asked puzzledly.
He actually noticed that this rain was different from previous ones, but he couldn't tell why.
"This water can corrode things." Huo said, pointing to some roadside flowers and plants not far away.
"Have you ever felt a strange taste in the water you drank recently? And your stomach feels uncomfortable after drinking it?" Huo said again.
Han Ping glanced at the direction Huo Yu pointed, then frowned and said, "Are you saying that the water here can't be used?"
He naturally noticed the strange phenomenon in the ground. The water was indeed not as cool and sweet as before, but noticing it was one thing, and knowing the reason for it was another.
So even though he noticed the strange phenomenon, he discussed the issue with his family, but because they didn't know the reason, they didn't come to any conclusion, so they had to put the issue aside.
And now that Huo said this, it means that there must be something wrong with the rain.
If this is the case, then the coverage area is too wide. The entire Guangfeng City has been raining these days, and it is still unknown whether it will rain in the future. If it remains the same as it is now, drinking water will be a big problem in the future.
If this is true, then we can no longer stay in Guangfeng City?
"It's up to you to judge. That's all I have to say." Huo said.
Before Han Ping could answer, he waved his hand to indicate that he was leaving.
Han Ping looked at their receding backs and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. If Guangfeng City was not safe, where could they go in the future?
Move the capital again? The key question is where should the capital be moved to?
Unable to figure out the problem, he returned to the city gate with a heavy heart.
Ning Yan sat in the carriage and pulled Qing Ying out of Ning Jing's arms by the tail.
The green onion was hanging upside down in the air. Although this posture had no effect on its body, it was too damaging to its image.
So it said to Ning Yan: "Master host, what can I do for you?"
It seems like it hasn't offended Ning Qian recently?
When Ning Jing and Huo Yun saw this situation, they looked at Ning Yan with curiosity, not understanding why their father had picked up Xiaoqing like this.
"Xiaoqing." Ning Yan supported his chin with one hand and called out with raised eyebrows.
Then he just looked at it without saying anything.
"What's the matter, host? I'm not used to you calling me out of the blue like this." Qingying said, twisting her willow-like snake body in the air.
"Are all the thermal weapons in your system made by yourselves?" Ning Yan asked.
Seeing that Ning Yan had no intention of putting it away properly, Qing Ying thrust her snake body forward and wrapped it around Ning Yan's wrist, then said, "Of course we researched and made it ourselves."
"Have you done any research on cars?" Ning Yan asked.
"What car?" Qing Ying asked in confusion.
"Are there any off-road vehicles, tractors, cars, or other motor vehicles?"
Ning Yan always felt that the carriage was too slow and bumpy. If they continued to flee the famine like this, how long would it take them to escape?
So how about a car? Even better, a few.
Qing Ying shook his head and said, "I don't understand the cars you're talking about. I've never seen them, nor have I heard of them."
"Your superior must have seen it. Why don't you ask him? Let him sell it in the mall." Ning Yan asked.
"My superior hasn't seen it either." Qing Xing said with certainty.
Because his superior is his father, and his father never told him about this situation.
"Go and ask again. If you don't, I'll give you a bad review of our service." There was a slight threat in Ning Yan's voice.
"We don't have a service evaluation system." Qing Xing said proudly.
Don't try to control me.
"Really? Then I'll have to throw you out of the carriage?" Ning Yan said as he pretended to pick it up and throw it out of the window.
Seeing this, Qing Ying immediately compromised. Isn't it just asking? Just ask.
