The koi of fast crossing are busy farming with their cubs

Chapter 312 The Control Group of the Escaped Heroine (27)

The grass in the barren grassland was so tall that it was almost level with the carriage, greatly hindering people's sight.

Her gaze was still "sluggish" looking at the direction she came from, and the blue sky was connected with the endless withered grass that was yellowed due to lack of water.

The intersection is an extremely beautiful glow, with some faint dark blue at night.

From the corner of her eye, Zhu Jiayi caught a glimpse of the second room where Xiang's family was sitting alone.

Resting at this point, the others began to unload their cars and set up small tents while boiling water and cooking. The exhaustion and relaxation made everyone smile peacefully and satisfied.

The second room of the Xiang family also started a fire and added a water pot like everyone else. The family hugged the dry cornmeal and gnawed with extreme sleepiness, which was a bit inconsistent with their usual way of working hard.

I don't know when their mule carts were reduced a lot, and the large bathtub with water hanging from the back of the cart was borrowed by the first house, and several bags of fried locusts and coarse grains on the roof were also demanded by the other houses.

It can be said that all the things outside the shed have disappeared, and the things in the shed have not been explored.

Zhu Jiayi squinted her eyes slightly, carefully feeling the scorching heat in the air that was different from before.

She suddenly opened her eyes again, lowered the curtain, and gave Old Madam Zhu a look.

The latter began to knock on the car wall vigorously.

Zhu Yuchen and Zhu Kaiyan rushed over upon hearing the sound, lifted the curtain, and looked over suspiciously.

With a serious face, Zhu Jiayi pursed her lips and said almost silently: "Third Uncle, Second Brother, it's fire!"

The two of them were startled, and they both stepped to the side and stared at the sky.

They were taller, and their eyes were particularly good. They had something to think about, and they really saw something inappropriate from the more gorgeous and charming sunlight than before.

The wild grass is blown by the light wind, even if it is upwind here, there is a very faint smell of burning dead grass in the air that is easy to ignore!

"Let's go!" Zhu Yuchen gritted his teeth and turned around to go to the official office, pointing anxiously at the sky: "My lord, someone must have caused a fire over there, we can't rest, we have to continue on our way!"

Seventh Brother stood up abruptly, looked into the distance with a serious face, and also noticed something unusual.

With a gesture from him, a guard climbed up a tree not far away.

Standing on a few tall trees in the wild grass, the field of vision suddenly widened. The guards could clearly see the waves of fire licking towards the sky, as well as some animals that had not migrated and were driven by the fire.

After getting a clear answer, Seventh Brother immediately said loudly: "Get up for me, there is water in the back, it's time for a cup of tea, pack up and set off immediately!"

After hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look, and saw that the sun was soaring into the sky, they were very flustered, and they put their things into the car without slow movements. After half a cup of tea, they got on the car and swung their whips vigorously, and ran with all their strength.

The fire looked far away, but there were withered grass everywhere on the barren grassland, and it spread very fast at a single point.

And it will take them more than a day to get out of this barren grassland. Even if they speed up, the withered grass that has no way out still hinders their progress!
King Meng Xian and his party also sensed something was wrong, and immediately followed the distribution team, and even overtook Xiang's family from one side, and crossed in the middle.

The big guys had no time to worry about it, they just buried their heads in the direction and drove at full speed.

The sky gradually darkened, and the flames from behind arrogantly illuminated half of the sky. The scorching temperature spread steadily along the sultry air in June, making the livestock gallop impatiently.

The horses and mules had already walked all day with heavy loads, and now they had been walking non-stop for most of the night. They were already so tired that they foamed at the mouth, and many of them collapsed in convulsions.

People can only pick up important gold and silver, food, water, clothes and other things and trot all the way to keep up with the large army.

More and more horses and mules were exhausted, and more people were struggling to escape.

They are not the only ones in the barren grassland, they are more afraid of the locust plague and drought in the east, and even more afraid of the tens of thousands of people infected with the plague outside the city. They plunged into the dangerous wild grass in groups.

The barren grass is so large that people can't touch it easily.

Now the big guys are all chased by the extremely fast fire wave, a little panicked, and gradually merged into a winding escape team.

The mule carts of Zhu’s family drank the added bamboo festival water before they set off, and now they are full of energy, with the wind blowing on their legs, and they rattled all the way without stopping.

It's just that there are many people fleeing famine, and the three mule carts of Zhu's family were gradually separated by the crowd.

Because both Zhu Jiayi and Mrs. Zhu were pretending to be sick, they were divided into two cars this time.

Zhu Kaiyan drove Zhu Jiayi, Lan Siya's mother and son, and Zhu's mother, and Zhu Kailin rode a horse to follow closely.

There were so many people walking and pushing carts that mule carts couldn't keep up.

The fire spread quickly, and now it has entered a lot, and it seems that it will sweep to the front in the next second.

Even though they were sleepy, tired, hungry and thirsty, they didn't dare to stop, they gritted their teeth and took heavy steps.

Zhu's mother and Zhu's sister-in-law each took a child and kept silent. Even if they heard the shouts outside, they didn't allow themselves to get hotheaded and make extra troubles regardless of the situation.

King Mengxian followed the mule cart closely on horseback, and soon separated from the others.

The car bumped on the uneven road, even if it was of good quality at the time, it could not withstand such a toss, and it would soon shake and fall apart.

"Second brother, you protect sister-in-law!

Third brother, you protect mother! Zhu Jiayi pushed her sister-in-law and mother to the two brothers, "Let's meet outside Huangguan City!" "After finishing speaking, she didn't wait for her family to refuse, and rushed out with her package.

King Mengxian's horse was exhausted.

He abandoned his horse without hesitation and followed Zhu Jiayi closely.

People walked or trotted non-stop all night, the heat in the air became more and more obvious, and the fire was approaching quickly.

A large number of birds and beasts were closely pursued by the fire.

King Meng Xian squinted his eyes and took a step forward, put his arms around Zhu Jiayi's slender waist, and jumped onto a sika deer with a run-up.He squeezed the antlers tightly to control the direction.

Zhu Jiayi slowly opened her eyes, watching the scene receding rapidly in disbelief, turning her head and vaguely seeing the general outline of the man under the red light.

"Don't be afraid, I'm Meng Lingfeng, everyone calls me King Mengxian," he leaned over to whisper in her ear while holding the struggling deer tightly, but the fiery hand on her waist didn't hesitate at all. with.

In order to show that she had been frightened by a man, Zhu Jiayi was shaking her body skillfully.

Even if the situation is critical now, King Meng Xian can still clearly feel the difference between women and men, and smell the sweetness that belongs to her alone in the ashes flying all over the sky.

"I'll take you out of the wild grass..."
