Chapter 85 Escape

The people behind saw the people in front changing lanes, so they followed them up the hillside without thinking at all.

On the hillside, there is a forest.

Seeing everyone running behind her, Merome secretly thought: It's going to be bad!

"Dad, we threw away the bullock cart and all the things that are not particularly important on us. Run away!"

Seeing that many people had surpassed them, Melome couldn't help but feel anxious secretly.

It's okay if the ox cart travels on flat ground, but it's very bad if it goes up the hillside and into the woods. It won't give you an advantage.

"Sanya, if this thing is lost, we will be dead if we don't have anything to eat or water to drink."

Mei Laoer was reluctant to part with it. There was still a lot of food and water on the oxcart.

In these famine years, we can't survive for more than a few days without food.

"That's right, Third Sister, you can't throw things away. If you lose them, our whole family will starve to death. You forgot about Wu Lang, and the third uncle sold three cornbreads."

Mei Luotao didn't want to throw away anything, so she took Mei Wulang as an example.

These things in the car are almost all their belongings. If the car is lost and the carrots are thrown away, what will they eat and drink in the future?

"Dad, eldest sister, things are dead but people are alive. Since we are lucky enough to buy water once, we can buy it again. We can earn it back after this thing is gone. If our life is gone, nothing will be left."

"

Merome climbed onto the shaft of the cart, tried her best to steady herself, pulled Meigoro out, and found a rope to tie to the cow's back.

"Second brother, listen to Sanya and throw away your things." Mei Qihai advised: "Have you forgotten that Sanya gave us some life-saving things when we went out? Even if we lose these, we will be hungry within a few days.

If you don’t die, maybe there will be a turn for the better in a few days!”

Mei Qihai quickly threw away her backpack and quickly took out several small bags from Mei Qiying's backpack.

In the bag are dried sweet potatoes and instant noodles brought from home.

When talking about this thing, Mei Qihai felt that it was always a waste of gas.

This instant noodles was made by Merlo Mei, who directed Merlo Tao and others to knead the flour into noodles, fry them, wrap them into a ball and dry them in the sun. It was said that it was for convenience, so it was called instant noodles.

Mei Qihai took a few small bags, took off Mei Qiying's back, quickly took the necessary items, and threw away everything else.

Seeing Mei Qihai throw away things, the other people couldn't help but take a few of the most important things and then throw away the backbone and some heavier items.

I felt a lot more relaxed instantly.

Seeing that there was no one in the bullock cart, Merome got in and secretly confiscated everything inside. Then she came out and climbed on the back of the bullock. She raised her dagger and cut off the rope on the bullock cart with a single blow.

The carriage detached and the big bull moved a little briskly.

Someone from behind saw that the person in front had lost his radish, and thought there was something good inside. He immediately ran forward to pick it up, but was knocked to the ground by the people running from behind, and one after another they turned into arhats.

Someone smart saw the way, quickly threw away the irrelevant and heavy things on his body, and quickly surpassed the people in front of him.

Melome and the others didn't carry anything on their backs, and quickly passed many people in front of them, taking the lead.

The people running behind were not far behind, chasing after each other and jostling each other.

Melotao was accidentally squeezed and thrown out. When she regained consciousness, her family had disappeared. She was extremely anxious, but she also knew that now was not the time to look for someone, so she quickly got up and prepared to run forward.

Just after running a few steps, her skirt got caught on a branch and couldn't be pulled off. She was hit by someone running from behind and fell instantly, and then a big foot came towards her head.

She was startled and reflexively covered her head. She thought she would be stepped on a few times, but she was suddenly pulled up from the ground.

He looked up and was stunned.

"Brother Du, why are you here?"

Didn’t they leave Shuanghe Village last year?

"It's hard to say anything, run away quickly!"

Du Lanfeng picked up Merloto from the ground and ran forward quickly.

He originally left Shuanghe Village last year, intending to go to the capital to join his relatives. However, he encountered robbers on the way and got separated from his mother.

All his things were robbed, so he ran for his life in search of food and his mother at the same time. He wandered around for a long time before arriving in Yongzhou. Later, he met a group of villagers fleeing the famine and fled with them.

Finally, I met a grain seller and exchanged some old books that the bandits didn't want for two bags of grain and a can of water. However, I heard that Yinzhou had been attacked and that Turkic soldiers were chasing me, so I had to flee for my life with the victims.

.

The Turkic soldiers came very quickly and soon caught up with the victims behind them. They picked up their knives and started slashing at them.

One person fell down one after another, and some women were even dragged to the side of the woods.

The scene is very chaotic!

Merome hugged the cow's neck tightly, not daring to turn around.

"Where's Da Ya? Where has Da Ya gone?"

Suddenly, my sister-in-law's voice sounded from behind.

Melome looked up and looked around, and sure enough, her eldest sister was missing.

"When was she not here?"

"I didn't notice it, ha... there were too many people just now, ha... I just ran forward as hard as I could, but... I didn't notice the elder sister at all."

Mei Luoxing was holding on to a big dry tree, panting and talking.

"Qi Hai, you take a few girls and keep running. I'll go back and look for you."

Mei Laoer stopped, grabbed the reins, put the rope in Mei Qihai's hand, and walked back immediately.

"Dad, you can't go. Now you are running forward, and some people are running backward. If you go back like this, you may not be able to find your eldest sister, and you will be trampled to death."

Melo Mei climbed down from the back of the cow and stopped Mei Laoer.

It's not that she's cruel, it's because based on the current situation, they can't change the outcome at all, they can just go back and kill people.

"Sanya, you can't leave your eldest sister behind. You go away. Dad will go back to find her. She is a girl. What will she do if she meets a bad person?"

Mei Laoer was worried, his eyes were red, and he looked like he was about to cry.

Although he knew that his daughter was telling the truth, he just couldn't trust her.

"Second brother, you better go first, I'll go look for you!"

Mei Qihai stuffed the rope that held the cow back into Lao Mei's hands, turned around, and ran towards a crowded place without looking back.

"Uncle?"

"Qi Hai!"

"Brother!"

Several people shouted from behind, but Mei Qihai turned a deaf ear and was focused on getting Mei Luotao back.

He ran all the way back, but halfway through he couldn't move forward because there were too many people and the road ahead was blocked.

He stopped people to ask, but everyone ignored him, pushed him away and ran in the opposite direction.

Mei Qihai had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue moving forward.

As he walked, he looked around to see if he could see his eldest niece, but after walking for a long time without seeing anyone, he saw a shocking scene.

I saw three men fighting with a girl in the woods.

You come and go, the girl still has the upper hand at first, but as time goes by, the girl gradually falls behind.

In the end, he was knocked to the ground by three people, his hands and feet were tied, and he was dragged aside by a man.

Mei Qihai hid in the bushes and secretly worried about the girl when she saw all this.

Seeing the other two people walking to other places, after thinking about it, they still followed the man secretly.

Go to a secluded spot and lie down, quietly waiting for the opportunity.

"Turkish thief, let me go."

Qin Lizhao's hands were tied and he struggled desperately.

"Let you go. Letting you go doesn't mean that my work will be in vain." The man pulled up his clothes and said in a broken voice.

"You thieves will not die a good death. Let me tell you, my father is General Qin. If you dare to hurt this girl, you will all be buried with my father when he conquers the Turks."

Her father was a famous general in the dynasty, commanding thousands of troops.

"General Qin, I'm so scared!" The man smiled evilly, "If you don't say that you are the general's daughter, I can let you go for fun. Now, I can't let you go no matter what."

The man stepped down and pinched the woman's chin, "What do you think will happen if I take you back to Turks and hand you over to the Khan?"

"What a beautiful thought, bah..."

Qin Lizhao was so angry that he spat on the other person's face. She wasn't scared!

"You stinky bitch, how dare you do this to me? I'll see if I don't beat you to death."

The man wiped the saliva on his face, raised his hand and slapped it a few times.

Qin Lizhao's face suddenly became red and swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye, and doubled in size in a short time.

"So what if you beat me to death? My father will definitely not let you go." Qin Lichao gritted his teeth.

"I don't know whether your father will let you go, but I know you can't run away now."

The man went to tear off the woman's clothes and said, "Fuck the general, I'm still the emperor!"

Qin Lizhao struggled hard, but the binding was too tight and he couldn't get out no matter how hard he struggled. He knew that he would not be able to escape today. If he had known better, he should not have run away from the marriage.

A tear slipped from the corner of his eye, and he closed his eyes in despair.

Mei Qihai watched anxiously from the side. Now that he saw this man intending to do something evil, his sense of justice suddenly burst out. He pulled out the dagger inserted in his boot and rushed out.

He raised the knife and pulled it out. Blood covered his face. Only then did he react with hindsight - murder!

He killed someone!

The dagger slipped from his hand and fell to the ground with a clang.

When Qin Lizhao heard the voice, he suddenly opened his eyes and saw a wisp of blood spilling out of the corner of the mouth of the man who had been coaxing him just now. Then his body tilted and fell to the ground, and then he met a pair of dumbfounded eyes.

"Hey, please help me untie it first!"

Looking at the young man who saved him in front of him, Qin Lizhao suddenly felt good about him.

In today's world, there are many people who do nothing to save others, but not many have a sense of justice.

Mei Qihai reacted to her shout, picked up the dagger on the ground with trembling hands, and staggered over.

Although he has always been a gangster, he changed his ways after the family separation. And he never thought about causing harm to anyone. Now that he has killed someone, he still feels that he can't accept it.

"Oh, come on, you're a grown man, you're just dragging your feet like a bitch!"

Seeing that the young man had taken the dagger and still didn't move for a long time, Qin Lizhao had no choice but to urge him.

The longer you stay in this place, the more dangerous it becomes.

Mei Qihai stepped forward, cut the rope with trembling hands, wiped the blood on her face with her sleeves, turned around and left.

He still has to find his eldest niece.

This girl with her quick hands could be caught by others, which made her even more frightened of her eldest niece, who was always timid.

If you are caught, the consequences will be disastrous!
