A Husband Who Traveled Through the Famine and Developed a Chronicle

Chapter 97

Yu Dashui and others told Bai Xia and the others about their arrangement, and informed the refugees in every household.

Sure enough, many people were unhappy with this.

Because of detours, everyone has to walk in the mountains and forests. There are even no roads in many places. Not only is it difficult to walk, but some places are dangerous and may even kill people.

When asked why they had to take a detour, Yu Dashui and the others were vague again, without an explanation.

Everyone disagrees even more.

"If you don't want to take a detour, you don't have to. Go all the way from here, and there will be a three-way intersection in a few hundred miles. One side goes to Jiazhou, and the other side goes to Quanzhou. Everyone can leave on their own."

"White……"

When Bai Xia said that the refugees should choose by themselves, Li Xiuyuan opened his mouth, so many people would choose to leave.

You must know that the reason why refugees follow them is because they have a road map.

Now that they have been shown the direction, they will no longer follow them.

Refugees, look at me, and I look at you.

I couldn't make up my mind.

"Miss Bai, we all listen to you and Young Master Li." Yu Dahai and the other dozen or so guard members and their families stood up.

"Girl, we listen to you." Li San'er and their families also chose to follow Bai Xia.

Shuanzi's family had nothing to say, they had already sold themselves to Bai Xia and the others, so they naturally followed them and chose to take a detour.

Yu Dashui knew that there would be no good end to going to Tushan, so he also stood up and expressed his willingness to detour with Bai Xia and the others.

With them taking the lead, many of their relatives and friends also chose to follow Bai Xia. In the end, among the more than 1000 people, nearly 500 followed Bai Xia and the others, and the others chose to continue their journey in the direction of Quanzhou .

They still told the government at the beginning that Quanzhou is vast and sparsely populated with hope.

"Let's go, don't look"

Bai Xia pulled Li Xiuyuan a little, and it was hard to persuade the ghosts who wanted to die. They exchanged food for them three times and helped them get here. It was their own choice to go to Quanzhou.

"Why didn't we tell them about the mine? If we did, maybe they wouldn't go there." Li Xiuyuan didn't understand, those people were also real people, and they probably went there with dead words.

"Li Xiuyuan, not everyone in this world can understand what a mine represents"

"They are just ordinary people. They have never seen a mine collapse, and they have never experienced a mine death."

"Even if you told them, wouldn't they go?"

"Sometimes people are lucky. Why do you think they will listen to you? Or do you think they will listen to me?"

"Don't forget, the bodies of both of us are less than ten years old. If half of the people are willing to follow us, just have fun secretly. If you want to save everyone, ask yourself, you have the ability ?"

"If not, don't beep beep, hurry up and get on the road"

Bai Xia couldn't quite understand his Madonna mentality. It was the choice made by the refugees themselves. They thought of a way to take them away, but they didn't want to. Even if they died in the end, it was their own problem, and they couldn't be blamed.

Of course, she didn't say anything about the mine, because these people are likely to meet people from Tushan. If they tell these people, they decide to go to Quanzhou, and finally leak the mine. hunt down.

After all, mining iron ore privately is a serious crime of ransacking one's family and exterminating one's family.

Therefore, whether she is selfish or cold-blooded, nothing is as important as their own lives.

The refugees were divided into two groups, one group went up the mountain and took the mountain road, and the other group continued to walk on the road.

Bai Xia and the others arranged for the men to lead the way, the elderly and children in the middle, the women in the back, and the guards to support them in the middle.

The mountain road was rugged, and the carts could not go up, so all the carts stayed behind, and Bai Xia arranged to take them away on horseback, because horses could not go up the mountain either.

"Light and simple, if there are no accidents, you should be able to reach Jiazhou safely."

"You go with Shuanzi and the others, I will lead people to find water, and we will split up"

Bai Xia picked up nine refugees who had just learned how to ride horses in the past few days, and led them towards Jiazhou on horseback and carts.

The refugees who were separated from them on the road saw them, and before they had time to speak, Bai Xia and the others rushed past them.

Bai Xia and the others rode fast, but because they were dragging the cart, the speed was not particularly fast.

But even so, an hour later, they came to the three-way intersection between Quanzhou and Jiazhou. They didn't hesitate and chose the Jiazhou road directly.

Not long after Bai Xia and the others left, the officers and soldiers sent by Tu Shan came to the three-way intersection. This group of officers and soldiers had carefully trained scouts. As soon as they arrived here, they found horseshoe marks and rut marks on the ground.

I saw an officer and soldier leaving the team to go up the mountain, squatting down to check the traces on the ground, gestured with his fingers, and then touched them with his fingers.

He got up and reported to the leading centurion: "Hundred households, there are traces of carriages and horses ahead. The carriages are ordinary carts used by the people, and the horses should be horses raised by the official stables of the yamen."

"From Wu County, about ten people, the load should be ordinary sundries"

"Going to Jiazhou"

The centurion leading this team was called Wang Qi, and he didn't pay much attention to the scout's report.

"Explore in the direction of Wu County"

"Yes"

After all, the team continued towards Wu County.

On the other side, Bai Xia and the others were also in trouble, and they saw a group of refugees blocking their way 20 meters in front of them.

In front of this group of refugees was a group of people in ragged clothes, yellow and thin, with numb faces, and the refugees behind, holding bows and arrows in their hands, aimed at Bai Xia and the others.

The people Bai Xia brought over were all relatively well-trained refugees, but they still panicked facing such an obviously well-trained group of refugees.

"Miss Bai, what should I do?"

A refugee beside Bai Xia lowered his voice and asked, looking at the ferocious refugee in front of him, but with a surprisingly ruddy face, his heart beat.

"no need to worry"

Bai Xia raised her hand, looked opposite, carefully sizing up those refugees.

In this era of lack of food and clothing, and everyone's skin is yellow and thin, the faces of these refugees are unbelievably healthy, but the fierce light in their eyes can't be hidden no matter what.

The people who were pushed in front by them as human shields were facing their direction, their eyes had no light at all, and the rare one or two people with different spirits also looked at them with jealousy, even a little bit of jealousy. He gloated, as if he wished they would fall into the hands of these refugees.

"Smelly girl, I told you to come down, did you hear me?"

"If you don't come down, I'll cut off his head"

A refugee yelled at Bai Xia and the others to get off their horses, and kept poking an old man in front of him with a knife.

The old man was poked by him so that his face showed pain, and he leaned forward, subconsciously avoiding the movement of the man behind him.
