Chapter 236

After Lu Qingling cleaned herself up, she smeared a dollop on Xiao Jingyu's face.

I don't know what this person looks like, but his face is so normal, it's really annoying.

After finishing these things, the two of them now set out for the standard food, eggs, milk and steamed buns, and set off early to continue their journey.

After walking on the mountain road for several days, although he was exhausted, Lu Qingling provided him with delicious food and drink every day. The two of them didn't lose weight, but grew a little bit of flesh. It didn't look like they were fleeing famine at all. .

A few days later, when they returned to the official road, they found that there were many fleeing people on the road, and some of them had seen them outside Qingyang City.

Lu Qingling and Xiao Jingyu glanced at each other, and they both saw puzzlement in each other's eyes.

The two of them traveled day and night in the woods, and they still ate and drank well, but they were actually one step behind these hungry people. What was going on?

Could it be that the gates of Qingyang City were opened, and they were following the official path, or else all this could not be explained.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingling walked to an old grandfather:
"Hello, grandpa, I want to ask, did you also escape from Qingyang City?"

Seeing that someone stopped him suddenly, the old man raised the wooden stick in his hand vigilantly. After seeing that it was only two and a half children, he said:
"Yes, what's the matter?"

"No, grandpa, we met at the gate of Qingyang City, you don't remember, the gates of the city were sealed back then, my little sister and I had no money, the gates couldn't get in, there was no way, we had to walk the mountain road, So I want to ask, is there no need to pay money to enter the city, if so, we would have waited a few more days if we knew earlier."

The old man sighed when he heard Xiao Jingyu's words:

"Fortunately, you left quickly. You don't know that there was a riot in Qingyang City a few days ago. As a result, most of the officers and soldiers rushed to kill most of them at the beginning, but the officers and soldiers failed to clean up the scene, and another group came. The bandits, my son and daughter-in-law were all killed by those animals, and our grandpa and grandson also took their lives, sneaking into the city and going to the official road while they were beating you to death."

"God, brother, it's okay, it's a good thing we walked fast, otherwise, otherwise, woo woo woo..."

Lu Qingling started crying in fright.

When the old man saw her like this, he probably thought of his dead relatives, and the tears also fell down. At the end, he kindly reminded:
"Children, you should hurry up. Those bandits who robbed one city will definitely go to the next city. If they catch up, it's over, let's go!"

He didn't wait for Lu Qingling to reply.He just dragged the child beside him and continued on his way without looking back. Now there is only such a single seedling left in their old Li's family. He must not let him have an accident, or the old Li's family will die.

Xiao Jingyu's expression was solemn after hearing this, and he returned to his mature appearance.

And when Lu Qingling saw the child he was pulling, she felt very uncomfortable. Her first impression was that she was so skinny, so skinny!

She felt that a first-level wind could blow him into the sky.

The head is big and the body is small, which is caused by long-term malnutrition.

For some unknown reason, Lu Qingling took Xiao Jingyu's hand and followed them so tightly. The old man seemed to feel something, looked back at them, smiled, and continued to lead the child on the way.

Xiao Jingyu didn't understand that Lu Qingling insisted on following the grandparents, they could go faster.

but……

When the grandparent and grandson were too tired to walk and stopped to rest after a small break, he saw her quickly approaching them, and then quickly throwing a cloth bag into their back basket, he finally knew this. Why did the girl follow them?

"Don't let people find out."

After Lu Qingling finished saying this, she pulled Xiao Jingyu away quickly, without giving the other party a chance to react.

"grandfather……"

"Is Xiaobao hungry? Let's go. Grandpa will take you to dig out the tree roots. What's the matter, we can't let our little treasure go hungry."

The old man took the words without waiting for his grandson to speak.

The people not far from them didn't even raise their eyelids after hearing what they said.
