"cough."

She silently retracted her hand and looked away, pretending not to see him.

Cheng Mingyi is such a smart person, how could he not know his actions, but just don't care about them; a face is dirty enough, and it doesn't matter how dirty it can be if it's a little bit dirtier.

Once you have figured it out, there is no psychological burden and you can let yourself go.

Cheng Yuanxi and Chen Daya walked behind and watched the two children in front holding hands and walking happily. It was not bad to have this mentality on the way to escape.

Chen Daya was just about to make fun of a pair of children, but unexpectedly, the commotion behind them became more and more intense. The two hurriedly grabbed the two children. Under the puzzled eyes of Cheng Mingyi's brother and sister, the couple stopped and turned back to look at the place where the riot took place.

At the corner 800 meters behind, there was a group of soldiers riding tall horses and holding broadswords and spears. They swarmed in and were blocked by the refugees.

"Not good." Cheng Yuanxi held his wife with one hand and his daughter with the other. As for his son, he was in Chen Daya's hands.

In his mind, it would be very miserable if his wife and daughter were lost, no matter what era; women always suffer more than men, especially in troubled times.

Therefore, no matter which time he was in danger, he would hold his wife and daughter tightly.

It's not that I don't love my son, it's just the reality.

"Ming Li, hold your mother's hand." Cheng Yuanxi only said this, pulling his wife and children closer to their parents.

Seeing this, Cheng Yuandong and Cheng Yuannan also brought their family over.

The people of Cheng Dazhu's lineage are all here.

Cheng Dazhu glanced at them and felt at ease, "It's good that you are all here. Lao San, no, let's go Mingyi; quietly find the clan leader and village chief, and quickly ask the clan members to run into the mountains. These people are very likely to be Came to recruit soldiers.”

"Okay." The situation was urgent. Mingyi ran to where the clan leader and village chief were. Cheng Dazhu called his three sons to carry large and small bags, especially the food, and quickly took the whole family to get in. Mountain forest.

When the clan members saw this, some of them were smart and followed them, while others who didn't react were confused and didn't know what to do.

"Clan chief, village chief, hurry up! Grandpa asked the tribesmen to go into the mountains and forests; those people may be here to recruit soldiers." Cheng Mingyi took the two of them to explain, turned around and rushed into the mountains following the backs of his family.

At this critical moment, it's not that they don't want to let the tribesmen in, but that they also have wives, families, and children. As a last resort, they can only save their close family members first, and then think about the tribesmen when they have enough energy.

The patriarch was panicked. Where had he seen this battle before?

I had never encountered any officers or soldiers while escaping from famine on the road. It was the first time I encountered an inexperienced soldier, and I was immediately at a loss.

"Why panic?" The village chief calmly turned around and said to his family and the clan leader's family: "You go into the mountains first, and we will stop the clan members; don't panic, take care of your wife and children at home."

"Dad, then you guys should follow me quickly."

"I'll stay with daddy. He's getting old. I can carry him on his back when he can't run anymore." The youngest of the village chief's family was only in his early 30s. He was still young and strong. After hearing the village chief's words, he took the initiative. Leave.

The patriarch took a deep breath, managed to calm down, and said to his family calmly: "Listen to the village chief, follow him into the forest, don't stop; keep walking inside to find Dazhu's family."

"it is good!"

The two families supported each other and walked, taking their own things and food with them. As for the car, they threw it all away. There was no way to take the car away in the forest.

Seeing the family squeeze out of the crowd and head into the mountains, the clan chief, the village chief, and the village chief's family members hurriedly informed the tribesmen to evacuate into the mountains, throwing away their cars and large items except for food.

The people in the clan leader didn't react at first, but after hearing the words of the clan leader and village chief, some came to their senses and hurriedly responded; there were also those who couldn't think clearly and were reluctant to part with the things in their hands, and were sternly shouted at by the village chief.

"What time is it? Don't alert others and evacuate to the mountains quickly."

"But..." "No but, Dashan, take this one away from your home."

The strong man named Dashan nodded naively, picked up his food, held the woman half in one hand and left.

The hasty evacuation of more than 30 households of the Cheng family attracted the attention of many people, including people from the two villages before and after them. Some people from those two villages thought for a moment, and then looked back and knew that something was not going well, so they shouted The family also evacuated.

However, they also understood that the movement should not be too loud; otherwise, if the soldiers behind were attracted, all of them would be driven away.

The clan leader, the village chief, and the youngest of the village chief's family followed behind and walked toward the mountain in disorder, mixed in with the crowd.

There were too many people, and the villages behind them also evacuated when they saw this, regardless of whether they were right or wrong; there were so many people heading into the mountains, and they followed suit and ran away.

This thing was so big that the soldiers 800 meters away became furious when they saw the people swarming away.

"People there, stop, don't run!"

"Go to a group of people and stop them."

"Yes!"

A group of ten people galloped away on horseback.

Some people saw that something was wrong, so they dragged their loved ones with them and ran quickly. They didn't have to give up their clothes and food, but they had to keep their lives. Therefore, a lot of baggage and food bags were left behind on the road.

The people of the Cheng family quickly gathered together after entering the mountain forest, but they did not dare to stay; they were forced to continue walking forward. When they entered the deep mountains, they heard continuous crying on the mountainside, and none of them dared to stay.

There were many people following Cheng.

Those who had just reached the mountainside were all pulled back, and those who entered the deep mountains escaped. The soldiers did not dare to go too far into the mountains. In the famine years, there were too many wild beasts in the mountains, and they were too vicious. The extremely hungry beasts did not care about humans. It's scary, they just want a good meal.

The soldiers did not dare to take risks. Anyway, after entering the barren mountains in a famine year, the chance of getting out of the mountains again was almost zero.

"Take away all the young men you catch, leaving no one behind."

"Hurry up, all men, get up, men over ten and under 40, follow."

The soldier patted the men on the back one by one with a knife and kept urging them, just wanting to take them all away.

"My lord, please be kind and don't arrest my men and sons; how will we live if they are gone, old and young. My lord, please show some kindness and don't take them away."

One woman knelt down and begged, and other old, weak, women and children knelt down to beg, and the scene was filled with crying.

Miserable, miserable, and heartbreaking to cry.

The soldiers were also in trouble. The task they were given was to recruit soldiers; all the men on the way to escape the desert, who were over ten years old and under 40 years old, had to be taken back.

They are all sons, so they naturally know how difficult it is to lose the backbone of the family.

However, they also have their tasks.

"Don't cry. All men go to war. When they become famous, your whole family will have a good life with their military achievements."

"We will kill anyone who cries again."

An older soldier picked up a little girl with a spear, and the girl's body was strung on the spear. The blood dripped on the ground, dyeing the land red.

The old, weak, women and children were so frightened that they couldn't stop crying, but they didn't dare to cry loudly, let alone ask for help.
