Lu Tianming led the team and lined up quickly.

At this time, there were still a steady stream of horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts coming from all directions.

Lu Qingqing had just parked the carriage and turned around to see a lot of people lined up behind the team.

Seeing more and more people coming, she became anxious, fearing that trouble would occur again.

Fortunately, the officers in charge of inspection at the checkpoint ahead were very quick.

While queuing, Lu Tianming at the front of the line noticed it.

Except for a very few families, the officials respectfully let the people go directly.

Most families secretly stuffed silver and money into the hands of the officers and soldiers.

Seeing this, Lu Tianming gave instructions to the carriage.

Soon, it was their team's turn.

Seeing that Lu Tianming was a stranger, the soldier said coldly:

"Why are you leaving the city?"

Lu Tianming stuffed the purse he had prepared long ago into the bag and whispered:

"Sir, please keep this money for tea. We are your clansmen, so please be kind!"

The officer weighed the purse in his hand, was satisfied, and did not embarrass him anymore. He raised his hand to signal the officers and soldiers in front to open the fence.

Seeing this, Lu Tianming signaled Lu Shuhe to drive the carriage away quickly.

He stayed where he was, directing the people in the team to leave quickly.

Only when the last family passed by did Lu Tianming follow them out of the city.

The officer ignored them and just turned his head to look at the team lined up behind him.

Seeing the line getting longer and longer, I felt happy.

These people are not people, they are clearly money!

It was in the morning when he saw more and more carriages leaving the city, and he became puzzled and asked for the news.

After learning that Yangfeng City was about to fall into chaos, he was initially terrified.

But after the panic passed, this idea came to my mind.

The world is in chaos now, but it’s not entirely a bad thing.

Here comes the chance to make a fortune!

Naturally, he didn't dare to make things difficult for the big shots in the city.

But the rest of the people had to pay him respects if they wanted to leave the city.

That guy was short-sighted. He found a random excuse to lock them up so that they couldn't escape.

However, those who were able to get the news and flee at this moment not only had money in their hands, but also had good eyesight.

So far, there has not been any such young fool.

Not long after Lu Qingqing and her group left the city gate, a group of soldiers hurriedly ran out of the government office.

Soon they arrived at the city gates and ordered martial law throughout the city, prohibiting anyone from leaving!

The people queuing at the city gate could not help but beg, hoping to be allowed to leave the city.

But the officers and soldiers at this time were cold and indifferent. No matter who came to plead for mercy, they just said that the county magistrate was following orders from above and ignored them completely.

In fact, he knew in his heart that there were only those in the county who really had connections.

Otherwise, he would have received the news and left the city long ago.

Otherwise, there would be no need to worry about conscription into one's own home.

As for those who just left the city at this time, most of them have no power or influence.

The team of officers and soldiers had stern faces and began to drive the carriages lined up at the city gate.

After the carriages left, the new leader of the officers and soldiers came to the side of the officer at the previous checkpoint.

"Jia Liu, I heard you've made a lot of money! We're all working together, so you can't just take it all for yourself!"

Jia Liu saw that he had a half-smile on his face but was actually saying threatening words.

In his heart, he cursed the guy in front of him for being greedy for money, but he put on a flattering smile on his face.

"Second Brother Shen, I will never forget you!

I've already prepared your portion.

I was planning to order it and then send it to you!

Now that you're here, I've saved myself a trip!"

As he said that, he went to the bag next to him, found two exquisite purses, and filled the two large purses.

Then he went back with the purse and handed it to Shen Er with some pain in his heart.

When Jia Liu saw Shen Er accept the money, he said:

"Second Brother Shen, you were fine this morning, why are you suddenly not allowed to go out?"

Shen Er explained for the sake of the two purses:

"I told you, don't go out and spread it around."

Jia Liu nodded quickly.

"Of course, I'm very tight-lipped, don't worry!"

Shen Er glanced at him, then lowered his voice and continued:

"At three o'clock in the afternoon, the county government received an order from Prince Jing of the prefectural city, demanding an immediate blockade of the county.

But the lawyer searched for a long time before he found the county magistrate in Chunxiang Tower.

I heard he had been drinking all night, and when he was found, he was still sleeping on Little Laurel's chest!"

As Shen Er spoke, a lewd smile appeared on his face.

When Jia Liu heard this erotic news, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he thought about the glimpse he had accidentally taken of Xiao Yuegui's tender face before.

Shen Er felt disdainful when he saw his useless look.

"The lawyer took the still confused county magistrate back to the county office and took the paperwork.

Look, the order has just been passed down!"

Jia Liu agreed verbally, but in his heart he was glad that the county magistrate was a drunkard.

Otherwise, how could he get so much money?

........

Outside the city, Lu Qingqing didn't know that the people behind her were stopped in the city.

At this time, she was concentrating on driving her own carriage.

As for Qin Lang, Lu Tianfu asked him to help drive the carriage.

Many of the families in the team who had just bought carriages did not know how to drive.

After leaving the city, Lu Tianming found that the carriage behind him was slow to catch up, and only then did he discover the problem.

Except for a few who had already found people, he directly assigned people to help the rest, such as Zhuzi's father and Lu Laosan.

Lu Tianming said with a cold face that those who didn't know how to drive a carriage should hurry up and learn, as they would have to rely on themselves to travel in the future.

After the assignment, the speed of the convoy was indeed increased.

At this time, the convoy was rushing south at the fastest speed.

Even Lu Qingqing couldn't help but sigh that after all the members were equipped with carriages, the speed of the entire team's travel was much faster than before.

Along the way, the team occasionally overtook some caravans that were hurrying on the road.

From a distance, the convoys were mostly filled with large and small bags, with almost no space left in the cars. It was obvious that they had taken all their belongings with them.

Those who were overtaken looked at the dust raised by Lu Qingqing's convoy as it passed by.

Some people covered their noses to avoid the dust, cursing, "You're in such a hurry to run, are you in a hurry to be reborn?"

When the people around heard this, they all agreed.

In fact, they are not unaware of their anxiety.

But when I was packing up, I looked at the belongings I had accumulated over the years and couldn't bear to throw anything away.

Unfortunately, when I went to buy a horse, all the horses in the carriage dealership had been sold out. Later, even the cattle, mules and other livestock were gone!

In desperation, I had to pick and choose among my belongings, but in the end I couldn't bear to throw away too much.

It's already very difficult for the animals to pull so many things, how can they run?

At this moment, seeing Lu Qingqing and her group running away quickly, he felt very jealous!

Among those who have been overtaken, in addition to those who are jealous, there are also many who are envious.

Everyone knows that if you escape now, you will have a better chance of survival.

In front, Lu Tianming didn't know that someone was envious of them.

At this moment, he was sitting on the shaft of the cart with a frown on his face, staring at the road ahead and thinking about his next situation.

According to the information I heard before, after leaving Yangfeng City, the next place is Yongyuan County, and further south is Xixing County.

As for places further away, I haven't heard anything about them.
