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

These days, wave after wave of refugees arrive every day, and everyone wants to enter the city.

But there is not much food in the county. If refugees enter, it is very likely to cause riots!

There are a large number of troops stationed in Meng County, and the county seat is an independent castle built by the court to defend against the enemy.

In this situation, the commander ordered that all refugees, regardless of their identity, were not allowed to enter the city, and the entire Meng County was on high alert.

In the Lujia Village team, Lu Tianming had already led everyone to take a detour to the east.

Following behind were a large number of refugees, most of whom were cursing the officials of Meng County, saying things like they were cold-blooded and did not help others in need.

Lu Tianming silently sped up. Where there are many refugees, there will be many troubles. Their team has a lot of supplies, and it will be troublesome if they are looted.

In fact, you can continue forward by taking the detour through Meng County, but it will take a longer distance than passing through the city.

The words of the Meng County soldiers just now made it clear that the barbarians were about to attack.

Lu Tianming's guess was confirmed. Magistrate Gao Yuan really fled after knowing that Pingkang County was broken.

He and County Magistrate Yao looked at each other, and both saw sadness in each other's eyes.

Lu Qingqing became more and more anxious. Although their team was moving faster than other refugees, it was still far behind the barbarians' cavalry.

Meng County is an independent city. If the barbarians do not fight and just go around it, they are very likely to run into them.

Lu Qingqing looked at Qin Lang driving the carriage, returned to the carriage, and opened all the boxes of arrows in the space to ensure that the arrows could be taken out at any time.

That night, the team did not stop to rest until midnight. Not only their team, but other refugees also continued to move forward.

Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang were both pulling the ox cart forward, their legs feeling as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

Lu Qingqing looked at the cow panting with exhaustion, and fed it some salt water, hoping that it would not fall down.

I don't know what time it was when the mule of the family with the mule fell down for the second time. No matter how hard he whipped it, the mule could only gasp for breath and couldn't get up.

The man felt extremely distressed when he saw the mule like this.

He knew the mule was tired, having walked day and night for the past few days. Even though it had enough hay and water, and he had even fed it food several times, it still couldn't hold on.

Seeing that beating didn't work, the man brought water and food, but the mule refused to drink even the water.

Lu Tianming heard the noise behind him and looked at the sky, so he had to let the team stop and rest.

When everyone was resting, Lu Tianming told everyone that if they really encountered an attack by barbarians and the team was dispersed, the survivors would rush to the next county, Qingping County, to gather.

If you are not allowed to enter Qingping County, continue south to Enling County to gather.

In short, go south along the official road until you gather at a place that allows you to enter the city.

The people in the team were silent after hearing this.

Lu Tianming also sighed and waved his hand for everyone to go back and rest.

After traveling all night, everyone in the team was extremely tired and couldn't move any faster.

Qin Lang led the ox cart to the side of the road, stopped and immediately unloaded the frame. The ox was exhausted and fell down without the frame pressing on it.

Lu Qingqing prepared bran, hay and water for it, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it eat.

If it's like that mule, it would be adding insult to injury.

After preparing good food for the cows, the two men didn't care about anything else and fell asleep directly.

The next day, people got up at dawn.

After a night's rest, the mule felt better and was able to get up and walk.

The man didn't dare let it pull the cart anymore. He just put a backpack on its back, and he and his son took turns pulling the cart.

Not long after the team set off, they heard the heart-wrenching screams of refugees from behind. The voices of men, women, young and old mixed together, conveying only panic.

The screams this time were completely different from the ones heard when the Gaoyuan County soldiers passed by before.

The barbarians' indiscriminate massacre completely broke down the refugees' psychological defenses.

At that moment, almost everyone screamed in terror.

At that moment, this sound actually drowned out the sound of the barbarians' horse hooves!

The scream of this fellow before death was so terrifying that it made Lu Qingqing's heart beat violently.

Her face turned pale and she had no time to look back to see what had happened.

He just instinctively drove the ox cart under him hard and rushed to the side of the road.

Seeing that Lu Qingqing's hands were shaking, Qin Lang snatched the whip from Lu Qingqing's hand, swung it vigorously, and drove the ox cart to speed up and escape inside.

Lu Qingqing calmed herself down a little and couldn't help but glance back quickly.

On the official road, the refugees who were originally crowded together on the road were now in chaos, and most of them were fleeing frantically to both sides of the road like headless flies.

However, there were still a few families who owned horse-drawn carriages and were still hoping for a lucky break, so they continued to rush forward along the official road.

The scene was extremely chaotic at this time and no one cared about anyone else.

Some refugees even cruelly abandoned their young children and fled alone in order to save their own lives.

The little child cried and ran with his short legs, trying to keep up with the adults.

Not long after, a group of barbarians wearing armor and riding tall and handsome horses rushed onto the official road.

When these barbarians saw the refugees pulling their belongings and fleeing to the sides of the road, they turned their horses around without hesitation and rushed straight towards the refugees.

The refugees running at the back, seeing this group of ferocious barbarians approaching, couldn't help but feel weak in the knees. They knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy, trying to hand over their property to save their lives.

However, what they encountered was a broadsword flashing with cold light.

In an instant, blood spurted out and the head fell to the ground.

The refugees who were fleeing in front were so frightened when they saw this scene that they threw down their heavy luggage and ran forward desperately.

Seeing this, the group of barbarians burst into laughter!

They brandished their swords and chased the refugees, killing them crazily. Wherever they went, there was grief and misery everywhere. It was a horrific sight.

If they saw any refugees dressed in rich clothes, they would dismount and plunder them after slaughtering them, taking away all their gold, silver and jewelry.

As for the large pieces of luggage that the refugees hastily discarded, they will not be wasted.

They came out to raid the valley, and there was a team of soldiers behind them who were responsible for collecting supplies.

After the killing in front, they followed behind, finishing off the enemies and collecting various valuables and luggage.

Lu Qingqing was running in front. When she heard the screams behind her, she couldn't help but look back and saw the soldier teasing the child with a knife.

The child was so frightened that he started crying. The barbarian seemed to be annoyed by the noise and cut him with a knife, and the crying stopped.

There were corpses all around and blood everywhere. Lu Qingqing didn't dare to look anymore.

At this time, a small village appeared in front of them. Lu Qingqing seemed to see a savior, grabbed the whip and rushed towards the village.

A few refugees rushed towards the village, but most continued to look for smaller paths to escape.

Lu Qingqing rushed to the front and arrived at the last house in the village. Seeing that no one was coming, she immediately put the car and the people into the space.

Lu Qingqing didn't relax until she entered the space, saw the familiar environment, and the screams around her stopped.

She sat down on the ground as if she had lost her strength.
