"Mom, where are we going?"

At this time, a group of refugees were staggering along a small road.

Although these refugees were disheveled, their bodies were not that thin, and they did not look like refugees who had fled from famine.

Looking at the expressions on each of their faces, they seemed to be panicked. From time to time, they turned their heads and looked around, and it became clear that they were a group of refugees who had suffered a military disaster.

The person who asked the question was a little girl who was dressed even more dirty.

She was short in stature, and her face was covered with mud. If you took a quick look, you couldn't tell whether she was a boy or a girl.

The person she called mother was a woman. She was also unkempt and her figure and face were not visible, but it was certain that she must be very young.

The woman gently covered the little girl's mouth and said, "Nanny, don't talk nonsense. Have you forgotten the game we two played?"

After listening to her mother's words, the girl Nannan stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and whispered:

"But mom, we've been playing this game for several days, and Nannan didn't even speak, but now Nannan's legs hurt so much."

The woman was a little helpless, but she calmed down, picked him up and said:

"Didn't Nannan always say that she wanted to go to grandma's house to play? We are going to grandma's house now!"

Seeing this, the little girl Nannan asked a little strangely: "But...but, but Nannan clearly remembers that we have passed by grandma's house a long time ago, and grandma, uncle, and brother are all asleep!"

When the woman heard this, her helpless mood suddenly became heavier, her eyes were slightly red, as if she was about to cry.

But she quickly stopped crying. Although she was sad, she didn't dare to shed tears.

Just listen to her comforting her daughter: "It's because grandma is asleep that we have to leave. When grandma wakes up, we will go back!"

"But..." After listening to her mother's words, the little girl asked with some confusion: "But grandma and the others don't catch a cold while sleeping on the ground?"

The woman suppressed her grief, put the little girl down on her back, and prepared to carry her away, while saying:

"No, your grandma and the others are very powerful and won't catch cold."

Then, after carrying the girl on her back, the woman shed tears without her daughter seeing her.

But the little girl behind her didn't know this, and still asked innocently:

"But...but why do we put daddy in the soil when he is asleep? Isn't it boring?"

Hearing this, the woman quickly wiped her tears and replied softly while sobbing: "It's not boring. The reason why you put your father in the soil is because your father is afraid of the cold."

"Oh!"

The little girl said in a very deep voice, and her mood was obviously not high.

However, the woman didn't notice anything. She just thought that the child might be tired, so she took out a dirty, unknown thing from her arms and handed it to her back.

"Nanny, look, mom still has a piece of glutinous rice cake here. Eat it quickly. After eating, have a good sleep. We will be home when you wake up."

"Okay!" The little girl took the glutinous rice cake and seemed very happy.

Not long after, the little girl fell into a deep sleep.

The woman, carrying the little girl on her back, walked forward step by step with the fleeing crowd.

She didn't know where the crowd was going.

Some people said they were going to the county seat, some said they were going to the county town, and some said they were going to a certain mountain to capture bandits.

But the woman doesn't care about that. She wants very little, as long as her daughter can survive.

In this way, she walked step by step, and she didn't know how long she walked.

However, she gradually heard from the fleeing people around her that their destination seemed to be approaching soon.

The woman looked up and found that there were undulating hills in the distance, with no big city at all. Her heart suddenly dropped.

At this moment, the front of the fleeing crowd suddenly became panicked, and then some people began to flee to both sides.

Seeing this, the woman quickly woke up her daughter behind her.

"Nanny, wake up. Nanny, wake up."

"Mom, what's wrong?" the sleepy little girl asked, rubbing her eyes.

Seeing this, the woman whispered: "Nanny, can mom play a game with you again?"

Hearing this, the little girl nodded: "Okay!"

"From now on, as long as mom doesn't let you talk, Nannan will definitely not talk. Do you understand?"

"Yeah." The little girl nodded heavily.

"If someone comes over later, Nannan will hold on to mom's clothes, don't say anything, and don't let go. Do you understand?"

"Yeah." The little girl nodded again.

At this time, the panic of the crowd was gradually under control.

Because the sound of horse hooves was constantly wandering around, those on horseback held swords in their hands. As long as they were escaping, they would immediately ride over and chop them to death.

At the same time, they also made strange calls, which were shrill and shrill, like ghosts crying and wolves howling, which made people feel frightened.

Soon, the fleeing crowd was divided into small groups as the horses roamed.

At this moment, someone was seen riding out, who looked like a leader.

Just listen to him shouting: "Grandpa is from Majia Town. The boss's name is Ma Bukui and he is a great hero. The boss is kind-hearted. Seeing that you are escaping, I can't bear you to suffer anymore, so let me welcome you. Do you think we are good?" "

The refugees looked at the corpse not far away and couldn't help but shuddered and said in unison:

"Okay, Mr. Ma is the most kind-hearted!"

Hearing this, the leader seemed very happy and said with a smile: "Since our boss is kind-hearted and chooses to accept you, then you can't help but repay your gratitude and express your gratitude?"

As soon as these words came out, the refugees knew what these guys wanted to do, so someone immediately replied:

"Yes, yes, sir, I still have a little bit of silver here, so I'll give it to you!"

"Sensible!" The leader smiled slightly, then waved his hand, "Go and put your thoughts on the open space in front of you."

Seeing this, a man soon came forward, took out his belongings and put them there.

Seeing this, other refugees also stepped forward, and soon it was the turn of the mother and daughter.

I saw the woman and her daughter walking forward and saw everything on the ground, including silver, copper coins, jade bracelets, hairpins, and so on.

So the woman took out a copper hairpin from her arms, threw it away reluctantly, and then quickly returned to where she was with her daughter to squat.

Perhaps it was because they were so dirty that these robbers didn't pay attention to her, which made her let out a sigh of relief.

After waiting for a long time, these refugees were searched.

Seeing this, the leader said: "Since you have all paid, Grandpa, I can't break my promise. Everyone, just go with me!"

As soon as these words came out, all the refugees were stunned, and then someone asked:

"Hero, haven't we already paid the money? Why do we still want to go with you?"

The leader glanced at him and asked, "What, do you have any objections?"

I saw that this refugee was quite bold and said: "All the money we have is given to you. Besides, we are refugees and there is no one to help us redeem ourselves. Why would a good man take us back again?"

The leader smiled and said, "You seem to have an extraordinary conversation. Who are you?"

The man tidied up the dirty clothes and said, "I'm just a scholar!"

'That's it...' The leader nodded thoughtfully, then looked at the scholar, and then his eyes froze.

Then he galloped directly onto his horse, unsheathing the sword at his waist.

"Pfft!"

The sound of horse hooves passed by, and a huge head rose into the sky.

Then he looked at the refugees and said solemnly: "Does anyone still have any opinions?"

As soon as these words came out, all the refugees suddenly felt chills running down their spines, and they all dared not speak.

Even those who wanted to move were firmly held down by those around them.

As long as you dare to come forward now, you will definitely die and it will be useless.

The mother and daughter, especially the mother, felt even more uncomfortable watching the dead refugee.

She knew this man. He was a truly good man. The piece of glutinous rice cake that her daughter just ate was given to her by this man.

I heard he said that there were more than a dozen people who came here to pursue some young man from China.

It's a pity that they encountered a military disaster and did not find young Hua Xia. Instead, several of them died in the military disaster.

Even his husband's body was buried with the help of these people. Including dyeing themselves dirty, it was also taught by them, which allowed their mother and daughter to live well until now.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this person is her benefactor.

But now she is watching her benefactor die in front of her eyes, but she can only cover her daughter's eyes with one hand, and cover her mouth with the other hand, not daring to make any sound.

The leader looked around and saw that everyone was trembling, and couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

"Since no one objects, let's go!"

After that, a group of refugees started to take action and followed them towards Majia Town.
