The whole family traveled through ancient times to start a new business
Chapter 76 How to Go
The man nodded after hearing this, thinking, this guy is a smart guy. He knew to go to the capital to get the news when he heard about the uprising of the disaster victims. He was also very decisive. He knew that things were not going well, so he fled without delay. If he had delayed, he would not have come here. They were driving a horse carriage, which was much faster, and they did not rest last night.
Su An Dong hurriedly asked about the situation in the city. He asked, "I wonder what the city is like now? Are there any rioters chasing after you?"
In fact, seeing that they dared to stop to rest and did not look very anxious, Su Anton knew that there were no rioters chasing them, but he still had to ask what he had to ask.
The man replied: "There are no rioters chasing us now, but I think there are a lot of victims rushing here. This group of rioters claim to be pleading for the people and following the will of heaven; they call themselves the Shuntian Army. They are busy looting now!" The man told Su Anton what he knew.
It turned out that after this group of rioters occupied the city, they were busy looting. They looted food, silver, livestock, everything. It is estimated that after looting the city, they will start looting the counties below. Although they will not chase us for the time being, it is estimated that when they have looted enough, they will gather their forces again and attack the next city.
Su An Dong sighed helplessly in his heart. It was always the common people who suffered. After being robbed, the common people also became victims of the disaster. What's worse, they have become rioters.
Su Anton always felt that this so-called uprising would not be groundless, and there must be a driving force behind it, but he had no way of knowing who it was.
After Su Anton thanked the man, they each returned to their own teams.
Su Anton quickly called the heads of each family and told them the news he had just learned.
The heads of the families all turned pale when they found out. Although they had escaped, they were still hoping for the best, thinking that if nothing happened, they could go back home, after all, they had a house and land at home. But now, this cruel fact was in front of them, completely destroying the little hope in their hearts.
Su An Dong looked at the people with grim expressions and said, "Let's pack up quickly and get going immediately. The more people catch up with us, the harder it will be to walk. We also have to be on guard against the mobs chasing us, so we'd better hurry." He also instructed, "Prepare more water, we don't know how far the next water source is."
When everyone heard this, they all agreed, went back to pack up, and continued on their journey.
Before leaving, Su An Dong went to the carriage team, found the man and said, "I advise you to hurry up. Although the Shuntian Army will not catch up for the time being, there is still danger. Moreover, the refugees are gathering more and more. It is hard to say whether the next city will let you in or accept you. It is hard to say."
When the man heard this, he straightened his face and replied, "Thank you brother for telling me this. I hope we can all be safe in the future."
The two men bowed to each other and said goodbye.
The group set out on the road. Su An Dong walked with Su Zhihao and expressed his worries: "Although the Shuntian Army should not catch up for the time being, I don't think this is absolute. It's hard to say. Moreover, even if the large army doesn't come, there is no guarantee that a small-scale mob will catch up. If they catch up, they won't care about those things. I'm afraid they will just rob us. Robbing is one thing, but they don't have any moral bottom line. If that happens, we will be in danger."
Su Zhihao felt that what his father said was right, and there were still many dangerous factors. He thought for a moment and said, "From today on, let's organize everyone in our team to practice! Don't let anything happen that leaves us powerless to fight back."
Su An Dong agreed and said, "You are right. It is right to practice. Just think of it as sharpening your sword before the battle. It is better than doing nothing."
Su Zhihao nodded and said, "It's better to practice than not to practice. Don't be afraid to fight when you really encounter something. Dad, we still have to think of a way. If we encounter a small group of rioters, a dozen or twenty people, we can still fight them. But if we encounter a team of a hundred people, we will be lambs to be slaughtered."
What Su Zhihao said was exactly what Su An Dong was worried about. Let alone a hundred people, even if they encountered a team of fifty people, or even less, they would be powerless to resist. They were just ordinary people, and those rioters were murderers.
Su Anton thought that he still had to think of a way to avoid them on the route he took.
Su Yuanyuan, who was standing nearby, heard what they said and expressed her own thoughts: "Dad, let's not take the main road, let's take some small roads! Preferably roads that are not usually used by people. We can have someone go ahead to explore the road, and then walk. Although it is not easy to walk, it will slow down the journey. But with fewer people walking, there will be fewer risks, and safety is more important. If they want to rob, they will definitely go to places with more people."
"Besides, I don't think the people in the next county we pass will let us pass. We still have to go around it in the end! We have to go around it anyway, so we might as well think about how to go around it now. Think about the route. As long as the direction is right, it won't be a big problem."
Su Anton and Su Zhihao both felt that what their daughter said made sense.
Su An Dong thought that this was not their family's business after all, so he couldn't make this decision directly. He decided to wait until the evening to discuss it with the heads of each family.
Su An Dong had already decided to follow Su Yuanyuan's advice. He also prepared for the worst. If they disagreed, they might go their separate ways.
Only one hour after Su Anton and his group set out on the journey, the group of horse-drawn carriages that had been left behind caught up with them and soon surpassed them.
The man who had just spoken to Su An Dong drove his carriage and said hello to him before leaving. Su An Dong looked at the man's horse and felt envious again.
At night, when the group rested, Su Anton called together the heads of each family and told them his worries and thoughts.
Before Su An Dong told them, he had already told the rest of the Su family about his idea, and the Su family agreed with his idea. It's better to be safe than sorry. If they were blocked by the Shuntian Army, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, wondering how could they be so miserable! Not only had they lost their homes, but now their lives might even be in danger.
Zhou Lizheng was the first to speak out: "My family must follow the Su family. We will follow Anton's instructions. If Anton hadn't reminded us and taken us out of the village, I'm afraid we would have been robbed by now. Not only would we not be able to take so many things out, but we might even have lost our lives. Anton saved our family. I trust the Su family, and I trust Anton even more. We will follow his instructions."
