The city is filled with the smell of blood.

The soldiers who were celebrating the end of the war were defeated by the barbarian soldiers.

"Ah, run quickly! The barbarian army is coming!"

"Run!"

......

There was panic in the city, people fled in all directions, and countless people were injured. Some who were slightly injured took the opportunity to flee to the mountains for shelter.

The city lord's palace was surrounded by the barbarian army. The city lord, his wife and his soldiers temporarily retreated, and the Yan army completely lost power.

The soldiers outside the city were also in chaos. There were constant casualties and escapees.

In these days, human nature is kind. When these soldiers saw their compatriots being slaughtered, they couldn't help but hesitate. Should they withdraw?

But if they go back, can they survive?

They have long heard of the evil reputation of these barbarians.

"Soldiers, don't hesitate. Let's escape quickly. The city lords are gone. These barbarians are so cruel. If we don't escape, we will all be buried here tonight!"

"But what should the people in the city do?"

"Many of the people in the city have fled, and there is nothing we can do for the rest. We are all ordinary people. We have fought for a few days with our flesh and blood for the people. Our benevolence and justice have been exhausted. The reinforcements from the court have not arrived. It's not the fault of us soldiers.

......

"Everyone, please go home quickly and take your relatives south. There are several cities in the south. Even if the barbarian army comes, we will have buffer time. Let's go quickly."

After the man finished speaking, he took the lead and ran back into the crowd. With one man taking the lead, countless soldiers with weak minds followed and fled.

In an instant, only a few dozen people were left among the hundreds of people defending the city.

Fighting broke out in the city, and the people fled on top of the corpses of their own kind.

In less than three days, Lingzhou City turned into a dead city.

Wei Ci, Song Hexuan, and their cronies naturally didn't know about this. They followed the marks made by Wei Ba and walked all the way into the mountains, fearing that Wei Ba would not take good care of them, or that there were many dangers in the mountains and that an accident would occur.

At the end, even the horses couldn't get in. They found the carriage hidden in the dense forest and followed the signs. They walked all the way inside for two days before they found the Shen and Song families who had settled near the cave.

"A Ci, Hexuan, you are finally here." Zhao Yalan cried immediately when she saw Wei Ci and Song Hexuan.

"Mother, I have made you worried." Song Hexuan apologized, "I have made you worried during this period!"

"No, Xiaoxuan, as long as you are fine, Aci is fine too, Bodhisattva bless you, Bodhisattva bless you!" Zhao Yalan quickly wiped her tears.

Shen Yue was also very surprised that A Ci came back intact. At least half a month earlier than she expected, so she and the children finally didn't have to worry about him.

"Why are you back so soon? Is the war over?" Nian asked.

"Well, Hexuan and I came back after watching the war. After bidding farewell to the city lord, we came to the mountains overnight. We were afraid that something might happen to you, otherwise neither of us would forgive ourselves in our lifetimes."

"Good boy, good boy." Nian sighed repeatedly as she patted the two boys' backs.

"Then when will we go down the mountain?" Sanwa asked.

Although they stopped going further into the mountains since yesterday, the conditions here are still not as good as at home. What's more, it's still winter and it's very cold morning and night. He's worried about his mother's health.

Moreover, after it got dark here, he basically couldn't light candles and make a fire, because he was afraid of being seen by the barbarian army, so he would not be able to continue reading and studying.

"I don't know if there are any lone barbarians yet. We can stay here for two more days and wait until we are sure that it is completely safe outside." Wei Ci thought for a moment and said.

After thinking about it, Sanwa thought it was feasible, so she said no more.

Everyone chatted for a while before lying down to rest.

Although it was not possible to light a fire in the wild, fortunately Xu Qi made a lot of medicinal powder, so there was no interference from insects and snakes at night. After all, it was still winter and snakes were still hibernating.

I slept until dawn the next day.

Wei Ci opened his eyes and found that his Dabao was already awake and playing with his fingers.

"Big brother." Dabao raised his eyes and looked at Wei Ci.

"Are you awake?" Wei Ci rubbed his brows, stood up, stretched, and held Dabao in his arms.

"Dad's good son, why are you awake so early?" Wei Ci kissed him on the forehead, "Are you hungry? Daddy will feed you grandma if you are hungry."

"%&...#!" Dabao refused, waving his chubby little arms.

"Are you really not hungry?"

"#.@&"! "

......

The father and son teased each other for a while, and Wei Ci suddenly seemed to remember something and asked, "By the way, where is your mother?"

At this time, Shen Yue had already gone hunting outside with Shen Nan. The two sisters had not spread their arms and legs for a long time, and now they went out to hunt hares together.

Wei Ci had seen his wife feeding her children milk powder. When he woke up, he saw milk powder cans and bottles piled up in the corner of the tent. He went to the iron pot outside and filled some boiling water. After letting it sit at room temperature, he added milk powder to the two babies. We took turns feeding them milk powder.

Nian and the others quickly prepared breakfast. They pulled out the wooden planks from the carriage and used stones to cushion them to form a dining table. More than a dozen people shared a dining table and had a leisurely breakfast.

Seeing that the sun was getting darker and Shen Yue and the others had not returned yet, Nian was a little worried and asked Wei Ci to go out and look for them.

Wei Ci looked around and found that he didn't see Xiao Ye's figure, so he felt relieved. Xiao Ye had good skills and great strength. With him following him, the three of them would basically have no problems.

"Oh, that's good. I haven't retreated in skill." Shen Yue looked at the hare her sister was carrying and whistled.

"That's natural. The amount of exercise I run up and down every day must be up to the standard." Shen Nan raised the hare in his hand.

"Wait and watch me bring you a small spore." Shen Yue threw the rabbit she had hunted to her sister.

"I'll go with you, Xiaoye, be careful."

"Wait!" Shen Nan was about to leave when he heard a loud shout from afar.

She raised her eyes and saw Ono coming back carrying a wild deer. His right shoulder was stained with bright red blood, and he looked quite heroic.

"Oh, Xiaoye, you are so awesome, you actually hit such a big deer." Shen Nan praised, with a pair of beautiful almond eyes full of smiles.

As soon as her words came out, Ono's face immediately turned red.

Shen Yue watched the interaction between the two people from the side, and suddenly felt a little confused. Is this young man blushing too easily?

"I'll go with you." Ono threw the deer on the ground and started to walk with the two of them.

"That can't be done. If such a big deer is placed here, wouldn't it be easier for other animals if we leave?" Shen Nan shook his head and looked at Shen Yue in embarrassment.
