Chapter 182: The City Gate
The city was full of fire. The night burned like day. There were cries and shouts everywhere. Ma Naruto called. The sound of wheels. Footsteps burst. Countless people may be running around. or head forward. From the streets and alleys. Pengmen Shuhu. A flood of high-walled compounds poured out. They all fled out of the city.
The gates of the city were wide open. On the old city gates. There are knife and axe marks. A few carriages that fell apart for some reason. The pile was piled up on the left side of the gate. One of them was also on fire.
The closer you get to the city gates. The more people. The crowd that ran out cried and called for his mother. I'm afraid to stay in the city for a few more moments.
But the more you squeeze. The slower you go.
Horseback riding. Walking. Catch-up ...... Do not give in to each other. People at this time. I've long been red-eyed. Take someone else's step. It's pushing your life one more step to hell.
Several wide carriages approached. Look at the regulation. It must be available only to the aristocratic family of Zhong Ming Dingshi. The slaves who drove the car were covered in brocade. He had a long leather whip in his hand. I saw the people blocking in front of the door. A whip was whipped. The crowd crowded like a pot of boiling porridge. Where to hide. Suddenly blood splattered.
"Untouchables. Make way for my lord. The slave shouted. Staring at the front with wide eyes.
The whip in his hand did not stop. Every time you draw it out. and brought up a series of blood flowers.
The cries of men, women and children kept coming.
"it. What is Hou Ye. Don't go to the palace to King Qin. Beat us people here. ”
"The lives of our people. Not cheaper than Hou Ye. ”
"Ahh The first update killed him. ”
"Up."
The crowd, angry and uncontrollable, swarmed up. The wide and luxurious carriage. Instantly overthrown to the ground.
The screams of women and children were heard from the carriage. Countless brocade clothes, gold and silver treasures were scattered all over the place. A minion who is still arrogant. In an instant, it was trampled into a pile of meat puree.
Some look at the treasures of the earth. Desperate for his life, he bent down to pick it up. The already congested city gates. It's even more difficult to move an inch.
The people in front don't go. The people in the back pushed hard. As long as you accidentally fall to the ground. His life will not be guaranteed. The able-bodied man is fine. The elderly, children, women and children are in such places. If there is no one to protect you. There is no chance of survival.
Le Xuan controlled the horse. Nervous. I didn't forget to turn around and comfort Yan Qingge: "Sister." Don't be afraid. Follow me. Just go out of the city gates. ”
Ruyi had already been frightened by this purgatory-like scene on earth, and tears were grieving.
A city gate where you can get out in the blink of an eye on weekdays. Yan Qingge: They walked for a full two quarters of an hour. He moved out.
After going out the door. The atmosphere suddenly relaxed. Even the horse under Yan Qingge's crotch couldn't help but snort. It's always clean on the horseshoe. Now it's all muddy thick blood. It emits an unsettling smell.
"This way." Lexuan horsewhip pointed. Pointed to the east. That was where the White Deer Academy was located.
"Brother Xuan wants to take me to the academy?"
"It's not going to the academy. It's our college buddies who are still waiting for me. I am not the only one who has returned to Beijing to pick up my relatives. I made an appointment with some friends to pick up my family and leave. Be the first to update"
Yan Qingge was keenly aware of the information hidden in Le Xuan's words. asked, "Brother Xuan." Where are we going. ”
"To Qingzhou." Lexuan said.
Ruyi stammered: "Qing...... Isn't Qingzhou at war? ”
"Qingzhou is safe now. Father was there. You follow your father. Capital. I'm afraid I can't keep it anymore......" Le Xuan solemnly glanced back at the Great Zhou Capital City that was wrapped in a thick city wall. Sigh: "If I'm not wrong." The surviving royal family. will also go to Qingzhou. ”
Yan Qingge looked at this building in disbelief, which had stood for nearly a thousand years. The city has gone through several dynasties. Is it going to be destroyed tonight?
Before she was born again. But I've never encountered anything like it. More and faster chapters are here. No matter how hot it is outside. The capital is peaceful and quiet. Blessing the people. It seems to always be the most peaceful comfort zone in the world.
"Let's go." Le Xuan patted his horse and walked forward.
It lasted nearly two hours. They arrived at the foot of Yanxia Mountain. Hundreds of riders are ready to go. In the light of torches. Yan Qingge found that most of these people were white-faced students. Each carrying a small baggage. There are also several female dependents in the middle.
Not everyone is calm. Most of the people's faces. There are also worries. Just tried to be restrained.
"It's Brother Le who is back." One shouted, "Your sister has received it." ”
Le Xuan greeted him. To the man, "My sister is fine. A few others have not returned. ”
The man said respectfully: "There are still five people who have returned to the city to pick up their relatives and have not returned." Be the first to update"
"Let's wait." Le Xuan waved his hand.
Yan Qingge rode over on a horse. Grinding the thighs a little tired. It's not time to ride away. Then he turned over and got off the horse to rest.
Ruyi nervously followed behind Yan Qingge. whispered: "Miss." Frost Hunter they stayed in the city. It's going to be okay. ”
"It's fine." Yan Qingge comforted Ruyi: "There is food and drink in the cellar. It is also ventilated. The Northern Barbarians and we don't speak the same language. Only plunder. Poor management. Half a month at most. And they were safe. ”
Le Xuan looked at Yan Qingge from the side. But there was no sound.
This time. It's not as simple as Yan Qingge said at all.
The Northern Barbarians came this time. Not only did it make a ploy of attacking the east and west. There are also people in the capital to answer. This is the most troublesome.
I heard that the crown prince did not support the emperor's military strategy of sending a large number of troops to the frontier. The emperor was advised to think twice. But the second prince and King Jing tried their best to pry it out. even let the emperor reprimand the prince for ignoring the livelihood of the people in the frontier. It's not bloody. It has created a situation where the capital is now unguarded.
This is the water inside. Deep.
The Northern Barbarian invasion was nothing. Plus years of conquest. The battle for the throne. Attack by the party lords. Then the prosperous age of peace. None of them can withstand such consumption.
Wait until the second half of the night. The remaining five students came back. There were only two people who brought them home. The remaining three. Lose one's nerve. It can be seen that the family has died in this catastrophe.
Most of these students are out-of-towners. You have to drop by to go home. Really went to Qingzhou with Lexuan. No more than half of them will be updated at the first time.
Yan Qingge has been cultivating feathers these days because of worries. The bones of the body are not very strong. It hasn't stopped yet. A group of people beat their horses and headed towards Qingzhou. For her. It's torture.
Take a carriage to Qingzhou. It will take about a month and a half.
But they rode horses. It only takes twenty days.
The farther away from the capital. The fewer people in the ranks. Even a lot of Helexuan who had sworn by him. The people who want to go with him to the border of Qingzhou. also quietly in some tranquility. There was no place left behind by the fighting.
Yan Qingge didn't bother to see who was gone. Who remains.
She got a tan. The skin has an extra layer of moisturized sun-kissed glow. The first time I updated people were not as thin as before. Pinch your arms and thighs. It's all hard muscles.
Her inner thighs were frayed. A thick layer of cocoons grows. When walking, I get more and more outward. A pair of hands because he often holds the reins of a horse. It has long ceased to be delicate.
She learned to drink water on horseback. Dine. Even sleeping.
As the weather gradually warms up. I don't even look for a place to rest at night. Just make do in the wild.
If it weren't for the star-like light in her eyes. And still beautiful and quiet face. It's covered in dust and dust. Poorly dressed people. Who can recognize that she was once a noble lady in Kyosato.
It is close to the boundary of Qingzhou. There will be more than three days. You can reach Yuhu City, the capital city of Qingzhou.
More and more traces of war were seen on the road. The first time to update every dozen miles. You can see the charred village. At the beginning, the northern barbarians plundered Qingzhou. Apparently not for fun. Qingzhou is already sparsely populated. Now it's like a ghost state. There was no one to be seen.
The woman who accompanied her. There are only two left, Yan Qingge and Ruyi.
"Sister. You drink some water. Le Xuan rode over from the front. Throw Yan Qingge a pot of water.
Yan Qingge fished out of thin air. Hold the cowhide kettle in your hand precisely. Moisten your throat. He asked, "Is the road ahead still easy?" ”
"There's a bridge broken. Slip through the water. Le Xuan said.
"Fortunately, I learned the Imperial Horse when I was at the White Deer Academy. I'm riding very well now. It is possible to stand on horseback and pass over. Yan Qingge laughed. Her biggest improvement in the past few dozen days. It is to learn to make fun out of suffering.
I have seen a lot of exile and death. The body is also running at full capacity. Yan Qingge suffered too much and didn't dare to look back.
Suffering has forged her into another beauty hidden deep in her soul. Let her not wear brocade clothes though. Don't eat elixir. But it's a gesture. All have a unique charm.
"No, I can't. Let's take a detour. The bridge looked like it had just been cut off. And the grass stems are low on the road. Someone should have passed through here before us. There are quite a few of them. It is not clear whether it is friend or foe. Let's avoid it. Le Xuan said.
On the road. Twice they had come close to colliding with the Northern Barbarians. I finally avoided it.
Although they have learned the six arts of gentlemen. Yu Wujian is stronger than ordinary people. But when you encounter the Northern Barbarian cavalry like a killing machine. There is only the fate of being slaughtered.
Yan Qingge listened. My heart tightened. smiled on his face: "I listen to Brother Xuan." But. If only the army belonged to our Great Zhou. ”
Previously, the saint fell for the Northern Barbarian's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. Send the Great Wave army to the border to fight the Northern Barbarians. On the contrary, the guards of the capital are empty. Those armies returned to Beijing and King Qin couldn't keep up. I don't know if I want to stay in Qingzhou. Or went somewhere else to do it cheaply.
This detour. It took four days.
The road is littered with traces of fresh troops. They even saw traces left by a large military stove one day.
No one else came forward to see it. Only Ruyi dismounted and flipped over. After a while. Coming back beaming. Carrying a bag of steamed buns that had been left behind. Said: "Miss." Take a look. ”
Yan Qingge didn't dare to eat it. Carry the steamed bun to find Le Xuan. Le Xuan broke it open and took a look. There was surprise on his face. Said: "This is the steamed bun of our Great Zhou army. The barbarian man doesn't know how to do it. Take me to see the stoves. ”
The dry food they brought with them had long since been eaten. What to eat on the way. There are pheasants and rabbits that have been hunted. There is wild vegetables to pick. Even ate the bark.
Ruyi is because I'm so hungry these days. will secretly go through those military stoves. She didn't expect to make a big difference. With excitement on his face, he led Le Xuan to the military stove where he found the steamed buns. "This is it." ”
Le Xuan observed carefully for a long time. Zhengse said: "It's my Da Zhou's army." There were about 2,000 people. We catch up. And they will and. ”
