MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields

Chapter 592 The new county magistrate is trapped

 “Mother, mother!”

Liu Ji tightly grasped the iron ropes on both sides with both hands, almost lying on the stone steps, looking up at Qin Yao helplessly and pitifully.

My legs were trembling, and my eyes were full of fear, and I almost shouted for help.

 But a group of people at the foot of the mountain were watching, and they could only keep smiling.

 Qin Yao stood above, heard this trembling voice, the lady lowered her head and glanced, she looked quite smiling, and raised the corners of her mouth without politeness.

Waving his hand to signal him to calm down, he said, "Wait a moment, let me see if the water delivery person is down."

Liu Ji was trembling: "Oh, oh, okay, madam, please hurry up."

Qin Yao: "Yeah."

The two of them stood on the mountain and blew the mountain wind for another quarter of an hour. Qin Yao finally saw a figure coming down the mountain. He estimated the distance visually and found that the target person should be at a height of 300 meters, which is also the highest point in the entire Lianfeng Mountain. It’s a steep and steep section that makes people’s hearts tremble just by looking at it from a distance.

 Walking alone without any luggage is a test of both skill and mentality. Not to mention that the sky was getting dark at this time, and people had to be brought down the mountain together, which made the difficulty skyrocketing.

Unless the trapped person can still walk on his own, if he cannot, the rescuers will be hindered.

 “Go down first and wait until the official comes down to ask about the situation on the mountain.”

Qin Yao turned around, grabbed Liu Ji's shoulders, and jumped off the ground with him.

Liu Ji did not scream in fear as usual. As soon as his feet touched the ground, he stood up straight, looking calm and fearless, and said to the county magistrate:

"The mountain road is rugged and steep, and the sky is dark. It may be even more difficult on the mountain at night. If the people on the mountain can stay one more night with water and food, we will go up the mountain to lift them down early tomorrow morning, and the officials will not be too worried. Have an adventure.”

As he said that, he winked at Qin Yaona.

He finally figured it out, and his expression of jumping up and down remained the same, which showed that the evil woman didn't take this little little windy mountain seriously at all.

 In this case, we might as well increase the price.

Sure enough, after hearing Liu Ji's words, the county magistrate immediately looked at Qin Yao worriedly: "What do you think, Mrs. Qin? But it's very difficult?"

Qin Yao glanced at Liu Ji's blinking eyes and nodded seriously, "I've just seen the road up the mountain. It's not impossible to bring people down. It's just that it's dark and the road is dangerous. If something unexpected happens, Well, I'm afraid."

Before she finished speaking, her brows furrowed and she looked embarrassed, and everyone on the mountain was in high spirits.

If Mrs. Qin found it difficult, then it would be even more impossible for them to save the whole person, and they might even risk their own lives.

Just when I was feeling worried, the official who had gone up to deliver the food came down. Everyone rushed forward to pick it up, and all started asking questions.

“Is the trapped person the new county magistrate?”

“How is the person doing? Are there any injuries? Can you still walk down the mountain?”

 “How did the man get trapped?”

With just one sentence, the food delivery official didn't know where to start, but the county magistrate shouted angrily, and everyone became quiet.

The official secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to report: "Sir, there are two people trapped. They are the new county magistrate and his loyal servant. There are no serious injuries to them. It's just that the new magistrate is afraid of heights and has weak feet. The subordinate just I tried to persuade you to follow your subordinates and walk down the mountain, but the magistrate couldn't move no matter what."  "The loyal servant could barely walk, but he was worried about his master and wanted to stay up there to guard the county magistrate, so he refused to follow him. Come down next time.”

"I have left water and food for the county magistrate, but the mountain is high and the wind is strong, and the county magistrate is wearing thin clothes. I am afraid that he will not be able to last for long. I hope the county magistrate can make a decision quickly."

 The identity has been confirmed, and the county magistrate suddenly screamed for life, and now he had to save him.

Hurryly summon Qin Yao and others to discuss countermeasures.

That loyal servant was fine. He had eaten something and gained strength. With the guidance of the officers and soldiers, if he walked carefully and slowly, he would most likely be able to get down the mountain intact.

It’s just that the county magistrate was afraid of heights and his legs were weak, so he had to carry him down the mountain.

After discussion, everyone decided to send three people to go up the mountain with ropes and quilts from Qin Yao's family. One person would lead the loyal servant ahead, and two people would wrap the county magistrate in quilts and carry them down the mountain.

　　Just do it. The county magistrate immediately ordered three people to go up and give it a try. However, he did not call Qin Yao, maybe he thought she was not needed.

However, it was getting dark at this time, and the three of them had to light torches, climb, and carry heavy hemp ropes and quilts before they passed the section of the iron rope. They almost got caught in the sudden strong mountain wind. take a photo of.

For a moment, the man fell on his back and the torch fell. Thanks to Qin Yao's agility, he jumped up in time to stabilize the man, so nothing happened.

The county magistrate was also startled and shouted: "Come down, come down first!"

Qin Yao took the quilt and rope and jumped down first, followed by three officials, still patting their chests with lingering fear.

"The wind on the mountain is too strong, and the wind gets stronger as we go up. It is really difficult for us to continue going up." The officials said with a grimace.

The county magistrate looked ugly, "What should I do?"

Liu Ji, who had been serving as the backdrop for a while, stood up and suggested with caution: "The lives of the officials are also our lives. It is too risky on the mountain at this time, why not wait until dawn?"

The county magistrate looked at him solemnly. On one side was his new boss, the county magistrate, and on the other was his brother who had been with him for many years. How should he choose?

"Ms. Qin." The county magistrate finally looked towards Qin Yao. He also knew that his request was difficult, but no matter how difficult it was, he still had to give it a try. What if it was successful?

 At such a critical juncture, Qin Yao felt that she could almost stand up.

At that moment, he said with a heavy face: "I'll try my best."

The county magistrate was extremely excited and bowed deeply, "Then please leave it to Madam Qin! If we can rescue the magistrate from the mountain safely, Madam Qin can just ask for anything you want. As long as I have it, I will not be stingy."

Liu Ji smiled broadly in his heart and said quickly: "Your Excellency, you are so polite. This is what we, the people of Kaiyang County, should do."

“No, no, no, it’s dangerous to climb the mountain. Madam Qin put herself in danger, so she deserves some compensation for her hard work.”

Liu Ji wanted to be polite again, but when he turned around, Qin Yao had already picked up the rope and quilt and started to take action.

 Human life is at stake, so that’s enough. If we delay any longer, if human life is at stake, we won’t lose any benefits.

With a clear mind, Qin Yao calmly tied the quilt into a marching baggage with a hemp rope and carried the quilt on his back. His fellow officer took a torch and climbed up the narrow and steep stone steps without saying a word.

As soon as we passed the initial railway section, we immediately felt the wind blowing from the cliff on the right, and the torch swayed but did not go out.

 The wind resistance is small and the current visibility is poor. The body conveyed the information it sensed to the brain, and Qin Yao immediately made corresponding countermeasures. She bent down, lighting the torch low on the road, and climbed up the stairs.
