Chapter 184 Northwest Army
"Get out of here first."
When Lin Erzhuang saw his daughter just shaking her head, his heart sank.
He didn't ask anything, just said a simple sentence.
A group of people were watching the excitement, but were inexplicably pulled out of the crowd.
"What's the matter? I haven't seen enough." Wu Xiaoming said puzzledly.
"Just leave when I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Wu Daming patted his brother in dissatisfaction, can’t you see that almost everyone has left!
He is so careless even though he carries a child on his back.
“Hehe, what are you afraid of with the Northwest Army here?
The iron cavalry and long spears frighten everyone who sees them.
I wish I could be a member of the Northwest Army, riding a tall horse to kill enemies and earn military merits. "
The more Wu Xiaoming thought about it, the more beautiful it seemed, as if he had already become a general.
"Hmph, you look like a jerk, just daydreaming." Wu Daming said disdainfully.
He took a few quick steps, not wanting to bother with this heartless brother anymore.
Erzhuang's family is almost out of the crowd. What if they get lost if they don't hurry up?
...
The city is built on the mountain, and passing through the city is the most convenient way.
The second way is to cross Qingfeng Mountain. The mountain is high and steep with thick snow, and there is only a narrow path leading up the mountain.
For Fucheng, Qingfeng Mountain is a natural barrier.
Even hunters rarely go up there, for fear of falling down the mountain accidentally.
They will be torn to pieces, and not even their bodies will be found.
The third route is to bypass the city, which is a long journey.
But the mountain is relatively low and the terrain is gentle, so it is called Nanshan.
Although the journey is long, it is not a problem for Lin Shu and her group.
Their skiing speed is at least twice as fast as others.
When they left, the refugees who were watching the Northwest Army were watching with great interest.
No one thought about leaving.
In their view, the Northwest Army is nothing to the northern barbarians.
They will definitely be defeated and sent back home.
...
"Third brother, I don't know where your sister-in-law and second brother are." Wu Yidao said with a worried look on his face.
"Dad, we can't wait during this chaotic time.
I……"
Uncle Wu San looked at his father in embarrassment. Did he want him to go find someone?
After he left, how could Zhao leave with the twins?
"Alas, the eldest and second brother are not here, and Dad doesn't know what to do." Wu Yidao said in embarrassment.
The eldest brother’s wife and grandchildren are nowhere to be seen. How should he explain this to the eldest brother?
The second brother's family is also missing. Why does God bully his family?
"Dad, you know what the situation is now.
Even if I find them, I can't bring them all back." Uncle Wu said with a bitter face.
"In times of chaos and turmoil, the best thing to do is to find a place to hide."
"Forget it. No matter how much I say, it's useless. You all have to be fine." Wu Yidao said with pain.
The father and son looked at each other in silence, unable to find the best solution at the moment.
unless……
The father and son both thought of someone at the same time, but shook their heads to deny the idea.
Who can bear it if one person is thrown away after another goes out?
What's more, we have to consider Layue's feelings. We can't ignore the lives of our daughter and grandchildren just because we are looking for our children and grandchildren.
He couldn't be so heartless.
...
Lin Shu twitched her ears, glanced at her father in front of her, and caught up with him on her skis.
She could only pretend she didn't hear what was said just now.
She would definitely be worried about asking Father Lin to go find someone.
If she went with Father Lin to look for someone, what would happen to her mother and brothers?
Since you can't give up either side, of course you have to selfishly choose your own family.
It is impossible to ignore your own family for the safety of others.
Lin Shu tried hard to convince herself that this was the cruel reality.
At the beginning, when Father Lin wanted to look for her and her elder brother, no one offered a helping hand.
Only grandpa jumped off the boat regardless of everything.
She just needs to be kind to the old man and try her best to keep him alive until the day he dies of old age.
After comforting herself, Lin Shu continued on her journey as if nothing had happened.
...
Seeing a fleeing group of about thirty people, Lin Shu couldn't help but look back.
This was the first refugee group we encountered since leaving the city.
It seems that there is no shortage of smart people in the world.
"Brother, what are you stepping on?" A refugee who looked like a team leader stopped Lin Erzhuang and asked.
"This is called a snowboard." Lin Erzhuang glanced at him and said.
"That's a really good thing, let's talk about it."
A light flashed in Liang Kaifeng's eyes, and he stuffed a piece of silver into Lin Erzhuang's hand.
Lin Erzhuang spread out his palm and weighed it, which was about five cents of silver.
He took a closer look at the group of refugees, even though they were dressed in dirty clothes.
But most of them have ruddy complexion and carry a heavy baggage.
The men have bulging waists and their facial shapes are similar.
Lin Erzhuang quickly determined that this was a fleeing group of a small family.
"Sure, as long as the benefits are there, there's no problem at all." Lin Erzhuang said cheerfully.
So Lin Erzhuang took off his skis and talked with Liang Kaifeng while walking.
After a while, Liang Kaifeng was seen practicing on the skis.
Half an hour later, Lin Erzhuang caught up with Lin Shu and took out two gold ingots as if presenting treasures.
"Girl, we've made some money again."
"Dad, you can do it!
They can earn gold just by walking, what's wrong with that team?"
Lin Shu smiled and put away the ten taels of gold. If time permitted, she really wanted to set up a stall to sell the patented technology.
The father and daughter whispered for a while and guessed the team behind them.
For the night camp, the two teams settled in the same forest.
Lin Shu climbed to a high place and looked down at the city.
There were several brightly lit areas in the city.
...
There were crowds of people in Xijiaochang, and the government office was the brightest place with the brightest lights, while most areas in the city were in darkness.
Apart from the patrolling soldiers, no one was seen walking on the streets.
"It's a curfew." Liang Kaifeng said lightly.
"Uncle is very familiar with the city." Lin Shu said affirmatively.
"My Yue family is from the provincial capital. We wanted to come and seek refuge, but we are not allowed to enter the city." Liang Kaifeng said dejectedly.
“No city is willing to accept refugees, and it is even less likely that they will open their gates when war is imminent.
The south is too far away, and many refugees cannot even reach it and will starve to death on the way.
The safest place right now is the Imperial City. There are too many refugees, and the Imperial City cannot accommodate them all..."
A hint of surprise flashed across Lin Shu's eyes, and she wondered how could this person tell this to a child.
"Haha, I am really crazy. How can I say these things to a child like you?"
Liang Kaifeng shook his head. He had been holding these words in his heart for too long.
Although the strange child didn't understand what he said, he understood the meaning of his words.
But after I get out what’s in my heart, I don’t feel so depressed anymore.
"Little guy, do you know where you are going?"
Liang Kaifeng simply continued the topic, speaking with great interest.
"My father said to go to a place where it's spring all year round and there's no war or famine." Lin Shu said innocently.
"Uncle, do you know where that is?"
"Uh! Uncle doesn't know either. You have to ask your father about this question." Liang Kaifeng shook his head and laughed.
Where in the world is there such a good place? It must be a paradise where only gods can live!
Anyway, he had never heard of it or seen it in a book.
"My father is a good man, what he says cannot be wrong."
The corner of Liang Kaifeng's mouth twitched slightly. If your father was really a good man, he wouldn't have asked for a hundred taels of silver for tuition.
