Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

Chapter 149: Passerby A died before the escape began 5

The culprit smiled and said nothing. Recently, Jiang Yue secretly fed his family a lot of pills, all for the purpose of being able to witness this great migration. It was very troublesome to go out in ancient times, and now there are wars everywhere and you can't go on the official roads. The official roads are not for civilians. But in peacetime, you can go as you please and no one will care about you. If there is anything, just get out of the way.

It's not possible now. If you are unlucky and someone is transporting grain now, you will be killed. If you are lucky, you will be forcibly conscripted to transport grain and die. It is impossible to pretend nothing happened.

You can't travel on ordinary roads now, you have to take the official road. It takes three to five days to get to the county town by ordinary roads. Of course, riding a horse is definitely faster. Chen has prepared half a month's worth of dry food this time, so it will take about a week to get there normally. But you can't be sure you will encounter defeated soldiers or refugees on the road, so it will take a long time to take a detour.

After Chen left, Jiang Yue lay on the bed thinking about Bai Ze's progress. She didn't know what was going on over there. Now Jiang Yue couldn't contact Bai Ze as an ordinary person, so she could only wait until the distance was closer. Bai Ze could take the initiative to contact Jiang Yue, but it would cost a lot of spirit stones to increase the power. Jiang Yue told Bai Ze that if it wasn't an important matter, they should meet and talk.

Because the wizard's body was too weak before, the magic seed and blood seed were not implanted. It would be useless to implant the magic seed, because there are no extraordinary people in this world to provide the required energy, and it would be a waste of a magic seed. Blood seed can be considered, at least it can strengthen the body, and this thing can regenerate and is not very precious.

Now when Jiang Yue uses items, he always gives priority to renewable resources. For example, for low-level elixirs, even if he has finished eating them, he can still refine them by finding some medicinal herbs that are over a hundred years old. Jiang Yue has never used special elixirs or high-level elixirs because he is reluctant to do so.

Jiang Yue selected a blood seed from the space that could accelerate plant growth and had some animal affinity. It was extracted from some magical animal, but it could not be implanted now. She had to wait for Bai Ze to come back. She didn't have that ability now.

The next morning, Jiang Yue was woken up by two naughty ghosts. Chen and Jiang's father were busy packing and had no time to look after them, so they came to harm Jiang Yue. After getting up, they gave the two little brats a good beating and gave each of them a piece of dried spirit meat, which can strengthen the body when eaten. Jiang Yue did not give the children any pills, but dried monster meat, which was milder.

After folding the quilt, she went out to help Jiang's father and Chen pack up, but Chen asked her to just take care of the two children. They would leave tomorrow after packing today. There were too many things to do and the two adults couldn't take care of the children, so this important task was handed over to Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue, who had taken care of the children for the whole morning, planned to cook a meal for her family at noon, but as soon as she started the fire, the two children came over to make trouble and she didn't finish it.

Finally, it was the mother Chen who took over the cooking task. By the afternoon, the house was almost cleaned up. The family looked at the empty room. Except for the two children who were happy and ignorant, the other three were more or less reluctant to leave. When they were having dinner, someone knocked on the door, followed by a shout: "Is the host here? It's late and we are passing by your place. Can we stay for one night?"

The voice was quite loud and both children heard it. Jiang Yue also recognized it as Bai Ze's voice instantly. Jiang Yue was still wondering how to meet him, but she didn't expect Bai Ze to come over. This guy hadn't contacted her, and she didn't know how he knew to leave tomorrow. Chen and Jiang's father looked at each other and Chen said, "I don't know who it is. Do you want someone to come in?"

After getting dressed, Jiang's father said to Chen, "You stay at home. I'll go outside and see what's going on." He also took his butcher knife with him when he went out. Although it was not common for someone to stay overnight, it had happened a few times. After all, Jiang Yue's family was a landlord, and their house was better than others, so the success rate of people staying overnight at her house was higher than that of others.

The door was in the front yard. Jiang Yue, who was in the backyard, couldn't hear what was said in front, so he could only wait and see how Jiang's father would deal with it. After a while, Jiang Yue heard the sound of the door opening, and people in the house also heard it. So Jiang Yue was asked to look after the twins, and he also went to the front yard. After waiting for Jiang Yue, Chen brought Bai Ze's family of three to the living room for dinner.

Father Jiang and Chen invited everyone to sit down and eat. Yes, high-level puppets can eat, although they are useless. After sitting down, Father Jiang asked about Bai Ze's background. Bai Ze smiled bitterly and said, "My family of three is from the vicinity of Tianshui County. We lived a good life, but the city was breached after the rebels attacked. Originally, it didn't matter to us civilians who was in charge, but the rebels were too brutal. At first, they just asked for money. Later, a soldier took a fancy to my wife and tried to rob her. In a rage, I killed him, and my family had to escape."

After saying that, the female puppet hugged Bai Ze. If Jiang Yue hadn't known that the three were controlled by Bai Ze, she would have really believed it. The performance was quite realistic. After listening to Bai Ze's words, Jiang's father slapped the table and shouted, "Well done, you're a real man. How can you be called a real man if you can't even protect your wife and children!"

"Come, I'll toast you a cup of tea instead of wine!"

The men were bragging to each other, Chen was comforting the female puppet, Jiang Yue and her two siblings were playing with the puppet child, and after chatting for a while, Tian Bai Ze drank a cup of tea and asked Jiang's father: "Brother Jiang, I see you are leaving too, right? What happened?"

"Nothing serious happened, but when I went to the county town, I heard that a group of defeated soldiers came from nowhere and robbed the Li family of the neighboring county town of all their money and people. I feel that this place is not safe and I plan to go to Shima County to take shelter."

"Brother Jiang! We can't go to Shima County. I heard that the leader of the rebels who captured Tianshui County had his entire family killed by the governor of Shima County. Given the brutality of the rebels, going there would be like walking into a trap!"

After hearing what Bai Ze said, Jiang's father Chen was shocked and then felt lucky that he knew about it in advance. Jiang's father raised a cup of tea to thank Bai Ze, but Bai Ze quickly declined, saying it was nothing. Jiang's father thanked Bai Ze and asked him, "Brother Bai, where are you going?"

"We plan to go directly north to the capital. In my opinion, this war will not end in a short time. It has just begun. The capital should be safer under the emperor's feet. Brother Jiang, if you are not sure where to go, why don't we go to the capital together."

Jiang's father and mother Chen thought for a while. Bai Ze was playing with the child and didn't say anything, because Jiang Yue had mentioned going to the capital a few days ago. Now they couldn't stay in the county town, so it was okay to go to the capital instead. Moreover, Jiang's father and Chen saw that Bai Ze was also a family of three, and everyone brought their families, so they felt more at ease traveling together.
