Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 8

The woman screamed out in fright, but Qin Shao covered her mouth tightly before the sound came out.

Throwing down from above was a decapitated corpse, which was dropped bloody.

According to the clothes, Qin Shao can clearly see that he is a soldier of the rebel army.

It seems that the Ming army has begun to clean up the occupation.

The results are predictable.

Military merit is often calculated based on the severed head. As for the corpse, of course it will end up being discarded.

In addition to counting the number of people in the clean-up area, there is another important thing to do is to check whether there are any fish that slipped through the net.

If they go up now, they are doomed to die.

With the "lesson" of this corpse, both of them stopped talking.

Qin Shao added some water and food, threw some to the woman, and continued to sleep to replenish his strength.

When I woke up again, the sky had already darkened, and apart from the chirping of insects, the piercing hooting of owls was also faintly visible.

The woman nestled in his arms was still asleep, breathing softly.

Wen Xiangnunyu was in his arms, and Qin Shao couldn't laugh or cry in such a situation.

"Wake up! I'm leaving!"

Push the woman, Qin Shao reminded.

"what?"

The woman was awakened, and opened her eyes in a daze for a moment before becoming sober.

Seeing the man standing up and the bottomless dark valley below, he couldn't help shivering.

Going up is actually a lot more laborious than going down.

Qin Shao was a little hesitant to tie the two together because they were too close after all.

But at a time like this, I don't care too much.

Fortunately, his strength is amazing now, and it is not that difficult to climb a cliff more than ten meters high with one person.

On the top of the cliff, there was an empty area, but the smell of blood was still strong in the air, which made people's breathing tight.

The two of them ran briskly for about half a mile before they dared to stop for a rest. They happened to meet a small stream and stopped to wash.

The conditions in the camp were difficult, and after nearly two days of avoiding the cliff, my body was already dirty and messy.

After Qin Shao finished washing, he looked up at the woman and couldn't help being a little stunned.

Her after cleaning:

Her complexion is like jade, her hair is like black ink, and her charming face is like the beautiful scenery in May.

"Qin... Brother Qin, what... What's the matter?"

The woman was a little surprised to see Qin Shao staring at her, not knowing why.

"Don't wash it anymore, wrap your hair up, and change into that old men's coat!"

Qin Shao said with a sigh.

This kind of beauty doesn't hide a thing or two, isn't following oneself a disaster for oneself?
……

Huangpi official road, a large number of people joined the escape journey.

The Ming army wiped out all of Liu San in Huangpi, and Liu San died from dissection.

The son of Zhao Nai, deputy marshal of the bandits, was captured.

News spread from the fleeing crowd all the way.

It is said that Zhao Kui had heard the news and wanted to bring an army here to save people.

If so, the rebel army and the Ming army will inevitably fight each other, and a big battle is naturally inevitable. No wonder everyone is fleeing.

"Brother Qin, we... Where are we going?"

Han Jinrong was dressed in a disheveled manner, and she couldn't tell she was a delicate girl unless she looked carefully.

Han Jinrong was the woman Qin Shao rescued.

Qin Shao looked at the crowd, and then at Han Jinrong, feeling a little headache.

He originally thought of rescuing her and sending her home, so he would have completed the task.

The two traveled all the way through mountains and ridges, and finally arrived at the town where Han Jinrong's hometown is located.

When he got there, he was indeed a wealthy family.

Qin Shao was secretly happy in his heart. He saved this wealthy woman, and her parents would definitely reward him a lot.

Even if you have to worry about going on the road by yourself.

It's just that when I entered the courtyard, the building was already empty, and the surrounding area was also silent.

It turned out that these big households in the city had learned of the arrival of the rebel army in advance and fled to hide elsewhere.

Qin Shao asked Han Jinrong why he was in the village nunnery.

Since the family members knew that the rebel army was coming and fled ahead of time, why didn't they inform the daughter.

Han Jinrong remained silent.

After a while, Fang said that his parents were in Beijing, but now they live in the countryside with their grandparents, and they were sent to a nunnery because of something.

Grandmother is getting old, and her aunt is in charge of the house, so she has a cold relationship with her, so she probably didn't think of me when she left.

It turned out to be left-behind children!
It seems like any era is the same.

Parents are running around to make a living, and will leave their children in their hometown.

Little do they know that no one really pays attention to their children at home, which is really pitiful.

"Brother Qin, I have an unfulfilled wish, and I can't die yet. Please take me with me. When I fulfill my wish, I will be a cow and a horse to repay you!"

Han Jinrong directly knelt down and begged.

The road to Beijing is far away, and because of the riots of the rebel army in the past few years, the way to enter Beijing is extremely strict.

He has no identity, and Han Jinrong's background is even more unknown, so it is simply unrealistic to go to Beijing.

Although Liu San's team was completely wiped out, the teams of Zhao Wei, Liu Liu, and Liu Qi appeared like ghosts and ghosts, not sure where they would appear, and many people panicked like headless chickens and could only follow the fleeing team.

In troubled times, the most terrifying thing is walking alone!

Although there are many people fighting, it is still relatively safe for large groups of people.

If a person is on the road, once he encounters hungry refugees, the scene is unimaginable.

Even if Qin Shao felt that his strength was amazing now, it would not be a problem for one person to kill ten people, but he couldn't walk alone with confidence.

Help people to the end, send Buddha to the west.

He left her now, she, a woman with delicate skin and flesh, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Who is in charge of the money in your family?"

"Although my aunt takes care of household chores, my grandmother is in charge of most of the money!"

Han Jinrong replied, but her eyes were puzzled.

"We need some money on the road!"

Qin Shao said helplessly.

Although the women of rich families understand etiquette and virtuousness, they don't know the price of oil and salt when they are not married, and they don't understand the sufferings of the world.

His aunt is also poor, and he only has a little silver taels in his baggage, and those that were searched during the siege, not enough to fit between his teeth.

Gold and silver depreciate in troubled times, and they need more silver taels.

"I know where Grandma's valuables are!"

Han Jinrong immediately got up and took Qin Shao to her grandmother's room.

There is a big bed in the room, which is very bulky, and the two of them tried to move it away.

Sure enough, I found a hidden compartment with a box hidden in it.

The two pulled out gold bracelets, gold leaves and a lot of silver taels.

The Han family was indeed rich, presumably the family had too much money and felt unsafe to flee, so they stayed.

"Brother Qin, should we take them all away?"

Han Jinrong asked directly.

The little girl forgot that this is their home!
"Pick up valuable and easy-to-carry packages!"

Qin Shao ordered directly.

The two gathered enough 500 taels of silver and wrapped it in the package.

"Are these enough?"

Han Jinrong was a little unsure. Although she was a woman from everyone, she never traveled alone, and she didn't know how much money she needed for the journey.

In her mind, the more the better.

"enough!"

Qin Shao answered neatly.

Daming's silver taels are very valuable.

One tael of silver can buy 2 stones of grain, and 1 stone is about 190 catties in the previous life.

That is, one tael of silver can buy 390 catties of grain.

Converted in this way, 1 tael of silver is equivalent to 660 yuan.

500 taels is equivalent to 33 yuan.

The two took 33 yuan on the road, which is indeed a big deal.

Even now that the army is in chaos and the price of goods is soaring, as long as the two of them save money, they can eat and drink enough to reach Anlu Prefecture.

Taking too many roads is too ostentatious and inconvenient to travel.

If you reveal too much money, you may bring disaster on yourself.

"Brother Qin, where are we going?"

After carrying the burden on her back, Han Jinrong looked back at the desolate village and asked.

"Go to Anlu Prefecture!"

Qin Shao said with a sigh.

That was his destination in the first place.

I inquired with a few refugees, and it was said that most of them were going to Anlu Prefecture.

Many places in Huguang were breached by thieves.

Although those rebels didn't stay, but they made a lot of noise, and they didn't know when they would come back.

At present, in Huguang, only Anlu Prefecture is strictly guarded like an iron wall.
