The farm life of the group pet Xiaoqi

Chapter 654 655. Frightened
The family of four didn't even dare to make a sound, just stayed in the cellar so honestly, even if they gritted their teeth coldly, they had to endure it.

The village chief's family encountered the same situation as Meng Xiaohua's family.

The village chief is also experienced. The door of the house was tightly pressed against the things he and his son had brought over, and the whole family hid in the two cellars of the house.

Hearing the sound of knocking on the door, the adults tightly covered the children at home, lest the sound of the frightened and crying children be heard.

Everyone was terrified, and finally the sound disappeared after a dozen or twenty bumps.

Even if they felt that the barbarian army did not enter the yard, the village chief's family stayed in the cellar as cautiously as Meng Xiaohua's family, without any action, and they would stay until dawn if there were no accidents.

Not everyone is as lucky and well prepared as they are.

Even though some people's courtyard walls were indeed very high after being added later, they were still knocked open by barbarian troops because they ignored the gates and rushed in.

Although some families were not found in the cellar, the livestock at home and the grain used outside were all removed by the barbarians.

As for Meng Xiaohua's grandma, Mrs. Meng's family, the loss was even more severe.

Except for old man Meng, the whole family is considered diligent, and they are all lazy.

Most of the food at home is still on the bright side, and only a small part is stored in the cellar.

When he heard the village chief's warning gong, old man Meng got up on the bed immediately. When he got up, he didn't forget to call the old woman up.

Although Mrs. Meng said that she is usually a very good person, she still knows the power of the warning gongs in the village.

The first time he was dragged up by the old man, he quickly put on his clothes and rushed towards his son's room, waking them up nervously.

Then he quickly packed up his valuables and stuffed them into his body.

Old man Meng hurriedly moved the grain into the cellar, but his strength was limited as he got older, so he could only get half a bag at a time.

When Mrs. Meng got the valuables here, she wanted to help the old man carry the food, but she found that the rest of the family didn't get up at all, and she couldn't care about the old man and the food in a hurry.

He hurriedly knocked on the door of his son and grandson again, and finally when his son and the others got up, they disapproved and said that she was making a fuss.

It wasn't until there were many dogs in the village that the son and daughter-in-law realized that something was wrong.

It was too late at this time, they had already faintly heard the sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the ground.

There was only time to pack some valuable things, and there was no time to move the remaining food to the cellar, so the whole family hid in the cellar in a panic, without even having time to pull the quilt.

That is, when they barely hid in the cellar, there was a knock on the door outside the door.

Not long after that, they heard the sound of the barbarians entering the yard.

The whole family stayed in the cellar without daring to say a word, listening to the barbarian army's murmurs and their constant searches.

Fortunately, the cellar where they hid was relatively hidden, and they were not found in the end, so they narrowly escaped the catastrophe.

After hearing the sound of the barbarian army no longer, Mrs. Meng finally couldn't bear it anymore when she heard the crowing of chickens, so she wanted to crawl out of the cellar and go to the backyard to see if her chickens were still there.

Grabbed by old man Meng, he said in a low voice, "You old lady, you don't want to die. Why are you climbing up at this time?"

"Didn't they leave? Old man, I am worried about the food at home and the chickens I feed." Old lady Meng said anxiously.

"It's okay to worry, what if they didn't go far away or didn't make any noise on purpose? Our family will be killed by you at that time, so stay well for me." Old man Meng whispered in a very stern voice, There is absolute indisputability in the voice.

Even if Mrs. Meng is not convinced, she still has to listen to the old man's words, mainly because what the old man said has some truths, and she is also afraid of death.

Just when Mrs. Meng was persuaded, in less than a quarter of an hour, the family heard the footsteps of several people coming from the yard, followed by another barbarian speech that they could not understand, and after a while, they came out of the yard. Only then did it quiet down.

At this time, everyone including old man Meng looked at Mrs. Meng, and the meaning in their eyes was self-evident.

They all sighed in their hearts that it was too dangerous. If the old woman (mother, grandma) really went out, the consequences would be really chilling.

At this time, old lady Meng was also terrified. If the old man hadn't stopped her, not only would she have harmed herself, but she would have also harmed her son.

Even though it was so dark in the cellar that everyone's expressions couldn't be seen, the old woman knew what kind of eyes her family was looking at her?Can't help but lowered his head embarrassingly.

In this way, except for the villagers who were discovered, the villagers who hid in the cellar hid until dawn.

In fact, as early as midnight, I heard the sound of horseshoes of the barbarians retreating.

No one dared to bet, if the barbarian army only withdrew part of it and left part behind, it would be too late to regret it.

In this way, it was hard to survive until dawn. After making sure that no abnormal footsteps were heard, and hearing the wailing of the villagers who were found, the villagers hiding in the cellar dared to climb out of the cellar.

The sound of crying shows that the barbarian army has really left, otherwise they would not dare to cry if they had more courage.

Meng Xiaohua originally wanted to go out first, but was stopped by Meng Laoer.

In the thinking of Meng Laoer, he has been useless for half his life, and his current life is all earned by his daughter.

He can't let this child who is wholeheartedly for the family go out to take risks. This child has not been married for the sake of the family.

This can be regarded as the name of his father's daughter to make up for it.

Resolutely stopping the daughter, Meng Er Er quietly lifted the plank of the cellar, slowly moved a gap, and looked into the room through this gap.

Fortunately, there was no mess in the daughter's room, and it seemed that the barbarian army really didn't enter the yard. Seeing this, Meng's second child spit out the depression in his heart.

Even so, Meng Laoer crawled out of the cellar very lightly.

Carefully opened the door of the daughter's room, and also opened a gap to observe the situation in the yard.

Except that the direction of the gate was a little messy, nothing unusual was found in other places. At this moment, Meng Laoer felt relieved.

Carefully opened the door of the daughter's room and went out.

The situation in the courtyard was the same as before they rested last night, nothing was missing and nothing was added, such as footprints.

The few chickens in the backyard are still fine, including the two pigs caught in the past few months, and they are also staying in the pigsty. Meng Laoer is completely relieved now.

It seems that the barbarian army really didn't come in. Thanks to my daughter's quick response last night, she used heavy objects to push up the gate, otherwise the family would definitely suffer. Of course, the fence that the daughter insisted on raising in the first half of the year played a decisive role.

At the same time, some people in the village crawled out of the cellar as carefully as Meng Laoer. After the family confirmed that the barbarian army had indeed left, more people crawled out of the cellar.

A few households with high courtyard walls and strong gates or those who made preparations in advance escaped the catastrophe, and it can be regarded as no loss.

As long as the gate was knocked open, the house was almost a mess, as long as the food and livestock were looted by the barbarians.
