"Grandma, we're definitely going to go with you, but where is the more remote place?"

Xiaodouzi is not stupid, where can they go if they don't follow Qiao Mu at this time, although I don't know if the fairy is true or not, but Qiao Mu can indeed get food now, and they can hardly find anything else to eat.

So they can only follow the arbor.

There is no other choice.

"Is it going to the grassland Tianshan?

I heard my grandfather say that there are almost no people in the Tianshan Mountains, and there is a lot of grass there, and the water flowing down from the Tianshan Mountains is not only extremely sweet, but also the source of many rivers in the Central Plains, which will never dry up.

Are we going over there?

We'll have a lot of grassroots going over there. ”

Alxa is a nomadic people, his grandfather is a small businessman, often go back and forth between the grassland and arbor they used to live in the small town to trade, but a few years ago they met mountain bandits, only Alxa survived, but he is not very good at arbor their side, plus the appearance is a foreign race, so life is very difficult.

It's not even easy to beg.

Later, I had a fever and fell into a coma, and was picked up by Xiaodouzi and a few of them, and then joined their small team of beggars.

At this time, he was talking about his hometown.

Although his memory is blurred, he remembers very clearly that there is a lot of grass in his hometown, and if he returns to his hometown, they should have a lot of grass roots to eat, and there is no need to find even grass roots like now.

"Prairie Tianshan?

It is really sparsely populated, planting and grazing can be, close to the mountains and rivers, although it may be cold in winter, but there is always a way to solve it.

Maybe we can give it a try? ”

Qiao Mu listened to Alxa's words, and he really moved, thinking that his idea was quite good.

Although the grassland also has power, the grassland power is relatively weak, and the ruling force is relatively sparse, so it is difficult to conduct a general population survey, so as long as you are careful when you go there, you should be fine, and if you find a valley to live in, it is safer.

No matter how large the peasant rebels broke out on their side, those peasant rebels would go to the east and south, and they would not go to the poorer, or more dangerous steppes.

So overall.

It's a good choice to go over there.

"Really? Then I can go back to my hometown.

However, my grandfather ......"

Although it was a happier thing to be able to return to his hometown, Alxa felt sad again when he remembered that almost all of his relatives had been killed, and the relatives who stayed in his hometown were also far away, and his mood became a little low.

Xiaodouzi was quite caring, and hurriedly hugged Alxa in his arms, and then continued: "Grandma, then let's go over there."

It's just that I heard Alxa say that it's still quite cold over there, especially after winter, and our clothes are so thin now, if we just walk like this, I'm worried that Xiaoyun and them will ......."

"I'm worried that they won't be able to stand it, you don't have to worry about this, I have my own preparations, I will prepare clothes and shoes for you, so let's decide, okay, don't be sad, let's have breakfast first, and after breakfast, we will go on the road together."

Among the children, only Xiaodouzi and Alxa are over ten years old and can barely be regarded as little adults, most of the others are only the size of Ji Jiǔ, and many are even only five or six years old.

It's hard for them to understand what's which.

So naturally there is no need to ask too much.

After speaking, Qiao Mu continued to take out rice and water as he did yesterday, and also took a small bag of mustard out to make some porridge for everyone to drink.

This time, the porridge cooked by Qiao Mu was a little thicker, after all, we had to rush later, so we couldn't let these children all go hungry, right?

As everyone happily drank the porridge with a little mustard, they quickly got on the road and continued to walk northwest to the grassland.

Stop-and-go.

It's been more than a month since I left.

In fact, before Qiao Mu and the others left, the peasant rebel army had already begun to break out on a small scale, but it did not form a chain reaction, did not unite, but only a small-scale outbreak of tens of thousands, and at this time, the peasant rebel army officially united, forming a million-strong army, enveloping nearly 10 million other disaster victims and refugees who did not revolt, marching to the southeast.

Fortunately, at this time, most of them were walking in the southeast direction, and the arbor had already reached the distant grassland border, so they were not harmed and were not carried in.

Even because the arbor provided them with a lot of food along the way, plus walking exercise or something, all the children's faces have become much better, and their bodies have become a lot stronger.

On the last night before entering the grassland, Qiao Mu specially settled the children and secretly went to a populated place to inquire about the news.

Because this side is already considered a border, and there is a big river nearby, the drought is not as serious as in other places, and almost no people have fled the famine, and because the people in other places have no concept of running to this side at all, so although the people here are poor, they are relatively stable.

If it weren't for the border, it would often be harassed by some nomads and horse thieves.

The arbor wants to settle here.

However, for the safety of the children, Qiao Mu still plans to go to farther places, more remote places, so that they can all grow up safely.

Considering that the speed of information circulation in ancient times was relatively slow, then the real uprising of the million peasant army may have started more than half a month ago, and now their scale may have been larger than in the past.

Qiao Mu, who learned of these news, immediately understood that the internal turmoil of the Great Li Dynasty at this time had to be turbulent for more than ten years, so this strengthened Qiao Mu's idea of leaving here with these children, and after collecting the corresponding information that night, Qiao Mu took Xiaodouzi and them to start a new journey again the next day.

Go to more desolate and remote places.

After walking for more than a month, they finally found an uninhabited valley under the detection of various advanced technologies such as arbor drones.

There are mountains and rivers in one place.

Outside the mountains is covered with snow.

A large valley in the valley that is like spring all year round.

This place is extremely hidden, if it weren't for the arbor's drone that could fly in the sky to detect, it wouldn't be found at all, and even if the arbor had detected it, it took a lot of time to find the path in, so this valley is obviously the safe place that the arbor wants to find.

When the arbor and the children made it into the valley without any problems, they settled here.

Settled down like a peach blossom paradise.
