The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times
Chapter 102 Refugee Robbery
Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang both noticed their approach, and without any hesitation, they quickly climbed onto the carriage.
Qin Lang swung the reins in his hand and drove the carriage quickly towards the official road.
The group of refugees, who were about a dozen or so and dressed in rags and with pale faces, saw the two men trying to escape by car and quickly caught up with the carriage.
He reached out and grabbed the back of the carriage tightly, trying to stop it from moving forward.
Lu Qingqing quickly took the bow and arrow from her back, aimed at the person in front, and shot an arrow into the person's chest.
When the man fell, there was an expression of disbelief on his face.
He could never have imagined that this skinny little girl could be so ruthless and her every blow was a fatal one.
The other refugees didn't expect her to be so cruel and dare to kill people right away. Two of them unconsciously let go of her hands and stepped back, with timid looks on their faces.
At this time, a man shouted loudly:
"We'll die without water, and there are only two of them. If we kill them, we can survive!"
The man shouted and ran forward, trying to climb onto the shaft of the cart in front.
After hearing this, the other refugees were energized and ran wildly behind the carriage.
Lu Qingqing quickly drew her arrow and pointed the arrow directly at the chest of the man who was inciting everyone's emotions.
The man didn't even have time to react before he was shot in the chest by an arrow. He screamed and fell backwards to the ground.
Although the man was shot dead by Lu Qingqing with an arrow, the situation was not under control.
More and more refugees clung to the carriage tightly, and for a moment, the carriage's progress became slower and slower.
Lu Qingqing's hands did not stop moving at all. She put the arrow on the bow again and aimed at the refugees in the front.
As another sound of breaking through the air was heard, another refugee fell.
At the same time, a nimble refugee ran to the shaft of the cart and hit Qin Lang on the head with a stick, trying to kill the driver to stop the cart.
Qin Lang quickly raised his knife to block the stick, then he turned his wrist and swung the knife, chopping straight at the man's neck.
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, and the refugee died before he even had time to scream.
During this period, Lu Qingqing eliminated another refugee who was closest to the shaft.
In this way, with the tacit cooperation of the two, the refugees fell one after another.
Seeing their companions falling one after another, the remaining refugees began to get scared.
After fleeing famine for so long, they attacked many small refugees in order to survive, and they were successful many times.
This time when I was on the road, I saw two people driving a horse-drawn carriage on the side of the road. I thought they were fat sheep, but unexpectedly they were the King of Hell who came to take my life.
In such a short period of time, nearly half of their team fell, and even the boss was killed.
Three refugees turned around and fled in fear.
The remaining refugees thought that this family must have a lot of food and water, so they still wanted to climb onto the carriage and continued to pull and chase the carriage.
With only these few people left pulling, the force was much weaker than before, and the carriage went a little faster.
Lu Qingqing continued to attack. After shooting three arrows in a row, the three remaining people who were still alive could no longer catch up with the speed of the carriage and were forced to let go.
Only after they had run for a distance did the two men slowly calm down, but they did not dare to stop by the roadside as there were still some refugees on the road.
The moon was still quite bright today, and Lu Qingqing found a wooden stick from the space and lit it, so that they could barely see the road. The two of them continued driving the carriage.
Lu Qingqing reflected on her mistakes while hurrying on her way. What happened tonight was caused by her failure to change her consciousness.
Before, Lujia Village was a large group of more than 200 people, and the dozen or even dozens of refugees on the road to escape famine did not dare to attack them at all.
Now there are only two of them, and they have a carriage, which makes them a typical fat sheep on the road of fleeing famine.
When traveling further, you must be more careful and do not get off the carriage easily no matter how tired you are. There are three horses and a cow in the space, and traveling backwards will not tire them out.
When Lu Qingqing thought of this, she discussed it with Qin Lang.
Later, as long as the light at night is about the same, the two people will try not to stop, one driving the car while the other rests, so that they can go faster.
Lu Qingqing learned how to drive a horse-drawn carriage from Qin Lang. The driving skills were similar, but the difference was that one had to understand the horse's temperament.
At this time, on another small road, Lu Tianming's family, the old village chief, Yao County Magistrate, Lu Tianfu and others were resting.
When the barbarians attacked, the families in front were also frightened and subconsciously ran to the left side of the approaching road.
The old village chief was pulling an ox cart following his eldest son's horse carriage, and in his haste he stepped on empty air and fell.
When Lu Tianming heard the sound, he quickly got out of the car and helped their father into the carriage with Lu Tianxin.
At this time, Lu Tianfu, who was at the back, also saw the old village chief and his cousin at the front of the team, and subconsciously rushed towards them.
At this time, the barbarians were chasing and slaughtering the refugees behind them. They had no time to spare for the livestock and everyone got on the car.
County Magistrate Yao and Lu Tianming drove the horse-drawn carriage in front, while Lu Tianxin drove the ox-drawn cart behind.
At the back of the team, Lu Tianfu saw that his eldest cousin and his friends had run far away, so he also put small stones on the cart and pulled the cart desperately to catch up.
Unfortunately, human power is no match for livestock, and they are getting farther and farther away.
From time to time, screams of people being killed could be heard from the back. Lu Tianfu hardened his heart and threw all the rarely used household belongings out of the car.
Then he continued to chase forward, pulling the lighter cart, with Shi Xiu'er and Tian Funiang also following him.
Tian Funiang was old after all, and she couldn't run anymore after a while and her speed slowed down.
Seeing that her mother-in-law was falling behind, Shi Xiuer ran back, grabbed her arm and continued running forward.
Tian Funiang ran for a while and felt like her chest was about to explode and she could hardly breathe.
"You...you guys run away, don't...don't bother with me...this old woman..."
Shi Xiu'er refused and insisted on dragging her forward.
Although the mother-in-law had never been very nice to her, she had not treated her and Xiao Shitou harshly in terms of food and drink.
After following Lu Tianfu for so long, the mother and daughter no longer go hungry.
There was not much water these days, so my mother-in-law and husband would rather drink less themselves and let Xiao Shitou drink.
Shi Xiu'er was grateful to the two of them and refused to leave her mother-in-law no matter what.
When Tianfu's mother saw that her son and daughter-in-law had stopped to wait for her, she couldn't help but burst into tears and gritted her teeth and tried to catch up.
Lu Tianfu was running in front, pulling the cart. Seeing that his mother and wife had not caught up, he hurriedly stopped the cart and ran over to hug his mother.
Tianfu's mother had lost a lot of weight during the period of fleeing famine. Lu Tianfu easily carried her over and put her in the car, then pulled her in and continued running.
After running for an unknown amount of time, Lu Tianfu felt his hands and feet become weak, and he finally caught up with his cousin's family who had stopped to rest in front.
When Lu Tianming first heard the noise behind him, he was a little wary, but when he saw it was him, he was very happy and rarely smiled at Lu Tianfu.
The group escaped death and after a short rest, they continued on their journey south. Everyone hoped to meet someone in the team in the next county.
