The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times
Chapter 409: Will the official road also be blocked?
At this moment, every family in the camp just boiled some water and poured it into the water bags, and they were not willing to make some soft porridge.
Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang took the roasted dry food and returned to their tent to eat.
Qin Lang hadn't spent much time with Lu Qingqing during the past two days, and he had a lot to say.
At this moment, he was excitedly talking about how he taught Lu Tianfu to drive a cart.
Lu Qingqing leaned back on the quilt, munching on a hot pancake stuffed with vegetables, and listened while she ate.
In a long call, one piece of good news was extracted.
Tomorrow, Qin Lang won't have to go and help Lu Tianfu drive the car.
This is rare good news!
She has been driving the bus by herself these past two days, with no one to replace her, and she is really exhausted.
After hearing this, she gradually fell asleep.
Qin Lang was talking when he found no response.
When I turned around, I saw her sleeping in the quilt, with the unfinished cake in her hand.
After he took the pancake away, he subconsciously covered her with the quilt next to him.
Then I realized that Daya hadn’t brushed her teeth yet!
He hesitated for a moment between letting her go back to sleep and brushing her teeth.
Finally, I remembered what she had said when she advised me to brush my teeth. If I didn’t brush my teeth, bugs would eat all my teeth.
He still shook Lu Qingqing gently and called her up.
Lu Qingqing finished washing up in a daze and went back to the tent to sleep.
Before daybreak the next day, everyone in the team got up and packed up.
At this time, the sounds of carriages and horses and deliberately suppressed voices could be heard from the official road not far away. Some people were already on their way.
Each family hurriedly packed up their things and set off in their carriages.
After the convoy ran along the official road for a while, the sky began to brighten.
Before long, the caravan encountered more and more ox carts and horse carts.
Even though horse-drawn and ox-drawn carts were in the middle, people pushing carts or carrying loads were on both sides of the road, and the official road began to become crowded.
Because there were many vehicles on the road, Lu Tianming had to slow down.
Seeing the speed getting slower and slower, Lu Tianming became anxious.
But now he really has no other choice but to move forward.
I just hope to move forward a little faster.
But what was unexpected was that the team stopped completely when passing a bend.
The entire official road ahead was blocked.
All the carriages and horses were forced to stop.
Lu Qingqing really didn't expect that such a spacious official road would be blocked.
She was very curious about what happened at the beginning.
Seeing that the road ahead was blocked, she stood on the shaft of the carriage and looked forward.
But apart from the huge crowds, there was really nothing else to see.
At this time, Lu Tianming called a few people and went to the front with weapons to check the situation.
Lu Qingqing asked Qin Lang to watch in the car, and she followed with a big knife.
The group walked around the crowd through the ditch nearby and walked for a long time before reaching the place where the road was first blocked.
On the official road at the front, there is a short section of road filled with thick trees and large stones.
At this time, the owners of the carriages in front were cooperating with each other, dragging the heavy wood and throwing it to the side of the official road.
However, the wood and stones were very heavy, and many people were sweating profusely from exhaustion.
Those people were panting, dragging and cursing.
"Don't let me catch these bastards blocking the road!
Once we catch him, we'll skin him alive!"
He spoke fiercely, but his hands did not stop moving.
They were stuck at the front, unable to move forward or backward.
If I don't move these things away, I'm afraid I'll have to spend the night here.
When Lu Qingqing saw this scene, she felt an indescribable weirdness.
Soon, she discovered something strange.
There were many men standing in the ditches on both sides of the road, staring at the carts that were filled with large and small bags.
At this time, in order to move the wood and stones that were blocking the road, most of the cars only had one person left to watch over the car.
Some tribesmen were traveling together, and one person even watched two or three cars.
Lu Qingqing looked at the bag of grain that was tied to the car in an unusually conspicuous way, and then looked at the refugees beside him whose eyes were almost turning green, and she thought to herself that something was wrong.
This scene is so familiar. When I encountered bandits on the road before, they also used wood to block the way.
Before Lu Qingqing could say anything, Li Rui next to her tugged at her sleeve.
When I turned around, I saw Lu Tianming making gestures, asking everyone to retreat quickly.
As the group was walking back, they saw more and more people in ragged clothes approaching the official road from the ditches on both sides of the road.
Lu Tianming also noticed this situation, and his hand unconsciously fell on the big knife hanging on his waist.
But at this time they were still quite a distance away from the convoy, and they were afraid of alerting the enemy, so they did not dare to run back rashly.
At this time, many people were still walking forward, trying to see what was happening ahead.
Lu Tianming felt anxious as he watched more and more refugees rushing forward.
He couldn't speak up to remind them now, otherwise the people around him might take action in advance and they would all be trapped.
However, when passing by a man with a child, Lu Tianming still felt a little reluctant when looking at the young child's tender face.
He tugged at the man's clothes and spoke in a low voice before he could speak.
"Hurry and take the children back, there are ambushes on both sides of the road!"
When the man heard this, he glanced at the ditches on both sides and his expression changed.
Before he could thank them, Lu Tianming and his group walked away quickly.
However, before they could return to the convoy, they heard screams from the crowd not far behind them.
"Robbery!"
"Help! There are bandits robbing us!"
"..."
As the screams rang out, the refugees who were lying in ambush on both sides of the road, watching closely, also began to take action.
They took advantage of the caravan's inability to move and targeted the fully loaded carts, frantically stealing the food and money on them.
The people in the car tried to stop them, but were knocked down by sticks from the refugees who rushed over.
Some vehicles with more people on them began to snatch the food that the refugees had dragged off the vehicles.
Many grain bags were torn, and white grains were scattered all over the ground.
This scene made some people who were already frightened start to have bad thoughts.
If you give your family a bag of this food, your whole family, young and old, can live for another month.
Seeing that the surroundings were in complete chaos, many people with ulterior motives took advantage of the chaos to steal things.
The whole scene was completely out of control!
During the looting process, bloodshed and injuries were inevitable, and more and more people fell down.
For a moment, the crowd was in complete chaos.
Some cried for mercy, some threatened and intimidated others, some desperately tried to grab the goods...
Lu Tianming drew the big knife from his waist and waved it twice, scaring away several refugees who wanted to rush over.
He ran forward quickly and shouted to the back.
"Follow up quickly!"
Behind him, Li Rui ran with a knife in his hand, and did not forget to look back to see if Lu Qingqing was following him.
The group ran around in circles among the crowd fighting, and it took them a long time to get back to the convoy.
At this time, the entire convoy had turned around and stopped at a slightly farther location.
At the back of the convoy, a group of men were standing on guard, holding large swords.
