The daily life of a farm girl raising a family

Magistrate Wang stared at the officer and asked nervously: "Tell me, what's the news?"

"The news just came that Rong Di has begun to attack the city. However, after investigation by the scouts, it was found that the original 20-strong army now has more than 6 vanguard troops attacking the city. There are still about 10 troops left in the base camp. The other 3-plus troops are missing. ." The guard said quickly.

"There are more than 3 people missing? What do these scouts do for food? Can people fly away right in front of their eyes?" Magistrate Wang was so angry that he slapped the case with his left hand.

"Sir, if this is the case, we may have to speed up the evacuation. Otherwise, if more than 3 people attack our rear area in Dali, our Fucheng and our Pingyang County will be the first to be hit," the officer said.

"This county knows that you need to inform everyone. Even if you go door to door, everyone must evacuate and go south as soon as possible. Don't take anything you can't take with you."

"Yes, my lord."

The guard turned and left.

Magistrate Wang turned around and said to his wife seriously: "You heard it too, the situation is more urgent now, take An An and the Zhao family and leave quickly."

When his wife heard the news of the officer's report, her expression suddenly changed.

When she heard her master telling her to leave quickly, she couldn't help but burst into tears and her body shook involuntarily.

Wang Junyao quickly stepped forward to support her mother and comfort her anxiously.

Magistrate Wang shook his head with a sad face and turned to Wang Junyao and Zhao Yunxi and said: "An'an, take your mother and Xiaojiu and leave quickly, and travel lightly.

Xiaojiu, help your uncle take good care of your aunt and your sister An An. "

At this time, the county magistrate's wife gradually stabilized her mood after being comforted by her daughter, but she still looked at her husband with a worried look.

Magistrate Wang comforted him: "Madam, you don't have to worry about me. The 3 people who disappeared from Rong Di may not have come for us. I will be careful."

Zhao Yunxi felt uncomfortable looking at this situation, which seemed like a separation between life and death.

"Uncle, aunt, sister, you don't need to be so pessimistic. We don't need to go south. There is a secret base in the mountains behind our village that ordinary people cannot find. There is no shortage of food. We will be safe there. .

In addition, even if Rong Di really comes, it is impossible to search the barren mountains. The mountain roads are difficult to walk, and they will not work hard to do thankless things. Besides, they couldn't find it even if they wanted to. "

After hearing Zhao Yunxi's words, County Magistrate Wang showed surprise on his face and said, "Is there really such a place?"

"It's true. This is also a retreat I specially set for the Zhao family."

"Okay, Xiaojiu, you've done a good job, be prepared for danger in times of peace and take precautions, okay. Okay, then I'll take your aunt and your sister An'an to your secret base." Magistrate Wang said excitedly.

Zhao Yunxi spoke again: "Uncle, I know your responsibilities as a parent, but please don't put yourself in danger. If you can't do anything, you should put yourself first. When the time comes, you can retreat to the back of the mountain, and we will pick him up in time. Lead you."

Magistrate Wang nodded. He had a duty, but he couldn't really do anything, and he couldn't stick to the county seat so stupidly that he would be buried with him. After all, it is not his job to lead troops to fight.

In the end, the county magistrate's wife was helped by Zhao Yunxi and Wang Junyao to leave despite her reluctance. When she left, she only took a few changes of clothes and the family's money.

After Zhao Yunxi and the others left, Magistrate Wang returned to his duties, and the families of other county government officials had already evacuated with the people.

When Zhao Yunxi and the others arrived at Shatian Village in a carriage, the Zhao family was the only one left in the whole village. Other villagers evacuated when Zhao Yunxi was on his way to the county seat.

It's not that Zhao Yunxi couldn't bear to tell the village name about the base, but it's really impossible to arrange it with so many people. In addition, other villagers have their own plans.

At this time, there is no guarantee that accidents will not happen when there are many people. You must know that human nature cannot withstand the test, otherwise the consequences may not be something the Zhao family can bear. After Zhao Yunxi and the other three entered the Zhao family, Zhao Yunxi began to make intensive arrangements.

Food, clothing, medicinal materials, kitchen utensils, tableware and other daily necessities are quickly transported to the back mountain by vehicle or manpower.

After spending most of the day, the evacuation from Shatin Village was finally completed near night.

When everyone entered the cave with their things and lit torches, they didn't notice anything. It was just an ordinary cave with a small sea area.

But when everyone followed Zhao Yunxi to a rock wall in the cave, Zhao Yunxi stretched out his right hand and pressed hard on a protrusion of the rock wall.

Only a few "clicks" were heard, and the rock wall gradually opened a stone door with a tight fit, which was just enough for one person to pass through.

Amid everyone's shocked expressions, Zhao Yunxi walked into the stone gate first.

When everyone entered the stone gate, the scene inside refreshed everyone's views again.

I saw a different world inside, with flat ground, flowing mountain spring pools, and a huge cave space, which is probably enough for thousands of people to live in it, and there is a slight wind feeling, which means that there is air flowing inside even if the stone door is closed. .

Zhao Yunxi directed everyone to settle down and divide into different areas. Then we started to arrange dinner, of course, several aunts at home would cook.

Zhao Yunxi walked to the county magistrate's wife and comforted her, saying, "Aunt, don't worry, this place is very safe. You and Sister An An can live here with peace of mind.

You don't have to worry about your uncle. I will arrange for my family to go out at any time to inquire about the situation in the county. When the time comes and nothing can be done, I will take my uncle over directly. "

The county magistrate's wife held Zhao Yunxi's hand and said gratefully: "Xiaojiu, thank you, your sister An'an was lucky enough to get to know you, and I also thank you on behalf of your uncle.

You ask your family to be careful when going out to inquire about the situation and pay attention to your own safety. "

"Don't worry, Auntie, you need to take a rest first."

Then he gave Wang Junyao a wink and asked him to take good care of his aunt.

Wang Junyao nodded knowingly.

After everyone had dinner, Zhao Yunxi arranged for someone to go out to find out the news.

Because Dingyuan City is only a few hundred miles away from Pingyang County, it doesn't sound close. In fact, it only takes one night for the cavalry to arrive.

What Rong Di is best at is riding horses.

In the end, Zhao Yunxi's second uncle took over the job, left the cave, returned to Shatian Village, picked up a horse, and headed for the county seat.

When he arrived at the county seat, the gates of the county seat were closed tightly, while the lights on Chenglou Mountain were brightly lit.

The people on the city tower naturally asked loudly when they heard the sound of horse hooves. Fortunately, the magistrate Wang was also patrolling the city tower, so he was allowed to enter the city.

The second uncle came to the city tower and asked about the situation. It was relatively stable for the time being, and Rong Di had not appeared around yet.

It's just that the city is quiet, and the people in the city have basically evacuated. The only ones left are those belonging to the county government and temporarily recruited rural warriors, but they have basically no fighting power.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded from far to near. Listening to the momentum of thousands of horses galloping, everyone couldn't help but look frightened.
