The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

Upon hearing this, the woman patted the child on the head.

"What nonsense are you talking about? If the King of Rebellion really doesn't want to pay taxes, can our family escape in the heavy snow?

Those are all nonsense, made up to deceive people!

Don't believe everything, kid.

Alas, I don’t know what’s happening to your grandparents right now!”

As the woman spoke, she looked towards the north with a worried look on her face!

On the opposite side, Lu Qingqing and Old Man Zhuang felt their hearts tighten when they heard the words Dashun and Chuang Wang.

It’s really the Dashun army!

Doesn’t that mean that the barbarian army is coming soon?

Lu Qingqing talked to the man and his family and found out where their home was.

And how far it is from here.

Only then did I learn that the family had been gone for more than half a month.

They escaped before the snow started, and they had to hurry all the way.

At least, the army behind us didn't catch up.

When Old Man Zhuang heard this, he couldn't help but tense up.

This family relies on their legs to run, how fast can they run.

Who knows, the Dashun army might be right behind them.

The behavior of the Dashun army is different from the previous rumors.

If they encounter this large army, they will probably be in great danger.

Thinking of this, he tugged at Lu Qingqing.

"Qing boy, let's go quickly!"

Lu Qingqing chatted with the family for a few more minutes, and after getting the information she wanted, she gave them the remaining cakes in her hand.

Amid the couple's thanks, he drove away in his carriage.

Because of what the family said, the carriage continued running until dark.

Instead, they lit and hung lanterns and continued running along the official road.

They kept running until almost midnight, when both the man and the horse were so exhausted that they stopped.

The first thing to do after stopping is for everyone to replenish the space water.

After setting up camp, the two heated up their food, ate, and then lay down to rest.

The next day, we got up and set out again before dawn.

That morning, Lu Qingqing asked the two groups of people again.

The information I got was similar to what the man's family said.

After getting the exact news, the two people's originally hanging hearts finally died.

Old Man Zhuang drove the car while Lu Qingqing studied the map.

This time, we not only need to study the route they are taking, but also the route the Dashun army may take.

Well, Lu Qingqing was also a little confused about this.

We can only judge the situation of a city by looking at its terrain and how well-known it is.

According to the information I heard before.

The Dashun army replenished its food and manpower from local areas along the way.

In other words, their route will be through wealthier cities.

But when Lu Qingqing looked at the map with place names marked on it, she was completely clueless.

Hey guys, do you want to guess by name?

Lu Qingqing said that she was really guessing now.

However, we should not only look at the names and the topography, but also the villages surrounding the towns.

The more villages there are around a town, the more likely it is to be wealthy.

She took the map that she had almost worn out and continued to look for it over and over again.

That level of hardship is almost as bad as studying linear algebra in college!

In fact, there is still a way to temporarily survive.

Find a secluded place to the east to hide and avoid this army.

This method works for a short time.

But the problem is that this barbarian army is following behind the Dashun army.

The barbarian army marched into the Central Plains, not just to pursue the Dashun army.

In her impression, the barbarians had already captured many cities in the north before defeating the Dashun army.

After the war, the household registration system will definitely be stricter.

Moreover, the barbarians will fight against the Southern Ming court.

Unfortunately, King Huai’s fiefdom was located south of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

How would she go back then?

After thinking for a while, I finally decided to try my best to move forward.

It would be best if we could reach King Huai's fiefdom before the barbarian army.

If one day you really can't leave, find a place to hide first.

This is also a last resort!

The further they walked, the more groups of refugees passed by.

During this period, several minor conflicts inevitably occurred.

Fortunately, Lu Qingqing acted ruthlessly and shot the refugees who were at the front.

In this way, large-scale conflicts can be avoided.

While on the journey, Lu Qingqing discovered that these refugees basically did not travel at night.

Although the visibility is not very good when traveling at night, the speed of travel is slower than during the day.

But in comparison, there are far fewer conflicts.

As a result, the two now extend their nighttime driving time.

During the day, if there is a strong snowstorm, they will find a small path and hide in it to rest.

However, with the increasing number of refugees on the road, the two now have to be on guard even when they sleep.

At noon that day, Lu Qingqing was catching up on her sleep in the carriage when she felt the carriage suddenly stop.

Immediately afterwards, old man Zhuang’s terrified cry was heard.

"Qingqing girl, get up quickly, the road ahead is blocked!"

Lu Qingqing suddenly opened her eyes, picked up the compound bow, stood up and looked forward.

Ahead of the official road, I saw a group of refugees roasting fire and eating.

But the middle of the road was blocked by a pile of stones, sticks and other things.

Obviously, it's a road blocker!

At this moment, seeing the carriage stopped, everyone stood up.

These people were holding axes or sticks in their hands.

Although the weapon is ordinary, judging from the bloodstains on it, it is obvious that the person is not a good person.

Most importantly, there are nearly two hundred people in this group.

Even if you throw grenades, it won’t be enough to blow them all up in a short time.

Judging from the situation, these people are not the kind that will be scared if you kill one or two of them.

Lu Qingqing looked at the refugees who were about to approach and whispered to Old Man Zhuang:

"Beg for mercy from them first and buy time!"

Old Man Zhuang watched her retreat back into the carriage, quickly raised his hand, and said loudly:

"My dear men, we are willing to leave our things behind, but only ask that we spare our lives!"

The men opposite laughed out loud upon hearing this.

"This old guy has quite a good eye."

"That's right! One is thin, the other is old, but they are sensible!"

"Oh, if they dare not understand, I will chop their bodies into minced meat!"

"..."

A group of people were talking and laughing.

While they were joking, Lu Qingqing had already taken out the box of grenades and quickly dragged it to the entrance of the carriage.

She climbed out of the car and pulled out two pull tabs.

He threw the two grenades in his hands directly forward.

Before the explosion sounded, she had already pulled the reins and started to turn around.

"Boom! Boom!"

Accompanied by two explosions, the carriage also changed direction.

But the horse was frightened by the explosion and kicked its hooves nervously.
