Dragging the family to flee famine?Don't be afraid, I have room to fill the granary

Chapter 12 Assassinated at the gate of the city
After breakfast, they carried Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai back to the carriage after eating and drinking, and Tao Qiqi and the others packed up their things and started on their way early.

Early in the morning, the sun was just rising, the sun was not shining, and the air was good, Tao Qiqi and the others simply got down and walked slowly with the carriage.

Wait until the sun is high before getting into the carriage!

Seeing that they were reaching Du'an City ahead, Zhao Song asked: "Qiqi, Du'an City is just ahead. Should we go into the city to buy some food and water?"

Tao Qiqi replied: "Go and have a look later."

Soon the carriage arrived outside Du'an City.

Many refugees gathered at the city gate.

Zhao Hu got out of the carriage and went to inquire about it first. When he came back, he said slowly: "The entrance fee is half a tael per person, which is too expensive. I don't think it's necessary. Let's not go in. The half tael is enough to buy it." There is a lot of food."

After hearing this, Tao Qiniang shook her head like a rattle, "No, no, it's too expensive. We still have a lot of food. As for water, save some and look for it on the way. There's no need to go in and spend it." This is a waste of money."

Tao Qiqi nodded: "Mother is right, we won't go in this time, we can save a little bit. There are too many people here, don't stay here, go ahead first, find a place with few people to rest."

Then the group of people turned around and prepared to leave.

Just as the carriage turned around, someone suddenly started fighting at the city gate.

After a while, all the refugees fled in fright, and Tao Qiqi and the others' carriage were blocked to death by the fleeing refugees.

When Zhao Song at the front of the car saw this, he was worried that the horse would be frightened, and immediately warned, "Qiqi, protect Auntie and Xiaoyu."

As soon as the words fell, two refugees who were fighting suddenly appeared next to the horses. Seeing that the sticks in the hands of the refugees were about to hit their horses, Zhao Hu quickly kicked the person holding the sticks with a sweep of his legs. It flew a few meters away.

The other person saw that Zhao Hu knew martial arts and did not dare to provoke him, so he quickly disappeared in front of them.

But one wave of ups and downs, another wave of ups and downs.

Suddenly someone among the turbulent refugees shouted: "Kill people, kill people."

It doesn't matter if you don't shout, but it will be even more chaotic if you shout "refugees".

Fortunately, the refugees found a pattern when they ran, and they all ran to the main road, so that they would not be blocked at the gate of the city and be beaten or knifed.

But Tao Qiqi and the others were driving a carriage, and because the road was blocked by refugees fleeing from all directions at the beginning, they fell behind.

Seeing that the refugees at the gate of the city had almost escaped and the road was clear, when Zhao Song and Zhao Hu were about to flee with their horses, a man suddenly fell from the sky and fell directly in front of the horses.

With a cry of 'Woo--', the horse's two front legs were raised high, and after falling down, it began to run in circles at the gate of the city.

Zhao Song and Zhao Hu were completely uncontrollable pulling the horse rope.

At first, the circle the horses ran was relatively large, but because the two groups of people who were the last to fight at the city gate were still fighting, Tao Qiqi and his horses eventually ran in smaller and smaller circles.

In this way, Tao Qiniang and Fang Yu in the carriage were dizzy, and Tao Qiqi's body was a little bit too much for a long time.

For the sake of everyone's safety, Tao Qiqi had no choice but to kick open the door at the back of the carriage.

As she shouted, "Jump out of the car."

Then I saw her jumping out of the carriage with Tao Qiniang and Fang Yu on one left and one on the right.

After rolling a few times on the ground, she stopped. Seeing that the circling horse was about to step on them, Tao Qiqi quickly let go of the two people on the left and the right, "Protect my mother and Xiaoyu." Then she said With a flying body, he rode on the horse.

He took out a big knife from the space, waved his big hand, the carriage rope broke, and the horse ran more happily without the restraint of the carriage.

Tao Qiqi tightened the rope, let the horse run, and comforted it while running.

After turning a dozen large circles, the horse finally calmed down.

But the horse was calm, and she was not happy. The carriage she bought for 15 taels of silver was so useless, it was strange that she could be happy.

Just as he was about to settle accounts with them, the system task came again.

[System task: Rescue the besieged mother and son! 】

After accepting the task, Tao Qiqi, who was riding a horse, turned to look at the two culprits.

One group of people formed a circle to protect a man and a woman, while another group of people were fighting hard towards the person being protected in the middle.

The man and woman in the middle should be the ones she wants to save.

Looking at the man tightly protecting his mother in front of him, holding a sword in one hand and covering the woman's eyes with the other, judging from the details, this man is still a filial son.

Later, Tao Qiqi took out her pistol, briefly covered it with a rag, and then pointed the pistol at the fighting crowd.

One shot, two shots, three shots...

With the sound of gunshots, and as the horse slowly turned around with Tao Qiqi, the killers surrounding the man fell one by one.

When the man noticed this abnormality, he looked up at Tao Qiqi.

Tao Qiqi, who shot and killed on horseback, was facing the sun right now, and the sun shone on her face, with a heroic appearance, which stunned the man for a moment.

For a moment, the man felt that he seemed to have a heartbeat, but when he recovered and found that there was also a man on the horse, he immediately strangled the damn heartbeat to death in the cradle.

With Tao Qiqi's help, the killer was quickly solved, the mother and son were successfully rescued, and the mission was completed.

[Congratulations to the owner, you have successfully completed the task and unlocked a field of 5 square meters. The system has automatically planted wheat. It will be harvested in three days and the yield will be 10 kilograms. 】

The killer was killed, the fighting stopped, the gunshots stopped, and the entire city gate became quiet in an instant.

The man was still in shock, so he didn't speak all the time. Seeing this, Tao Qiqi had to speak first: "You guys frightened my horse, my carriage was ruined, and a lot of food was spilled. It can be counted on your head."

Hearing this, the man was a little surprised. He thought that after she rescued him, she would ask for reward, but he didn't expect that it was for the carriage, and he felt more appreciation for the young master in front of him.

Seeing that the man didn't respond to her for a long time, Tao Qiqi thought that he was trying to play tricks, so she said again: "Why don't you talk? Is it possible that you want to play tricks now? You can afford such a man with hand guards, how can you still be picky?" You don't want to pay for the carriage money? What's more, I'm your savior. If so, then you..."

"Young Master has misunderstood. I am thinking about how much money I should compensate you for. The carriage, food, and you and your family were all frightened. These are all my fault, so I should be responsible for these."

"It's fine if you're willing to take responsibility, and I don't mean to take you for granted. You just need to pay the price."

Tao Qiqi fell, and the guard beside the man said worriedly: "My lord, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time. The magistrate has probably been bribed, we have to leave here as soon as possible."

"Okay, I understand." The man said and took out a banknote from his arms, "Give this to the young master."

The guard took the bank note and walked towards Tao Qiqi.
