Otherworldly Days

Chapter 486 News

Thousands of miles across the wilderness of the Northland, there is a large piece of cracked land, and the vegetation in the ground is withered.

Due to natural disasters and man-made disasters, Zinu's army is about to attack, and the cities are occupied by Zinu. They don't want to become Zinu's slaves, so they have to escape from this place as soon as possible.These days can't go on anymore, and the people in the Northland don't care about the imperial court's order not to relocate, and they leave their hometown with their whole family.

"Em, hungry..."

The hungry, yellow and skinny child clutched his stomach and screamed for hunger. Eminem, who was holding the child, could only hold back tears and coax the child, took out a bamboo tube to feed the child a sip of water, "Son, bear with me, we will be there soon." There is something to eat." I can only give the child water to satisfy his hunger, and now even water is getting harder and harder to find.

Seeing his wife and children, the dark man wiped his face fiercely, and urged them to leave quickly in a low voice, because it would be dangerous to fall behind.

At the beginning, there were only a few people on the road, but at the end, there were more and more people, walking together in groups.People are dying along the way, from sickness to starvation to death. This road is full of dangers, and if you are not careful, you will give your life on this road.

The world is so big, they don't know where to go, where they can have a bite to eat, so as not to starve to death.

The businessmen who went to the Northland to do business ran fast and escaped from the birth day, and they were lucky not to be killed by Zinu's knife.Money is a small matter, but life is the most important thing. After throwing away the goods and taking people along, he ran away quickly.

The return of the businessman also brought news from the Northland. This is not good news. People from all over the world are beginning to know some news. The life in the small town is still as peaceful as usual. The news from the outside can't reach here yet.But I think it won't be long before the people here will know the news that Zinu's army is coming.

"I just wanted someone to find you, but you came here without thinking." Cao Xiangnan went to Yipinzhai, and the shopkeeper Fang dragged someone in as soon as he saw him.Shopkeeper Fang just wanted the boy to go and find the boy, and the person came, just to save him from having to ask someone to call.

The business of many restaurants and shops in the town is not very good, but the business here in Yipinzhai is about the same as usual, the rich people are not short of money, and those who have no money will not come to Yipinzhai to eat.

The two went upstairs together, Cao Xiangnan saw shopkeeper Fang's expression, and knew that he had something to tell him.

The boy came in, poured tea and went out, closing the door by the way.

Shopkeeper Fang lowered his voice and told Cao Xiangnan the news of Nanyang's arrival, took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Cao Xiangnan, and said, "This is a letter from Shopkeeper Fang." It is also a matter of imperial court fighting.

"Is this coming?" Cao Xiangnan was taken aback when he heard that Zinu had captured several cities, he couldn't believe it.Not long ago, I heard that the imperial court and Zinu had fought, and they lost several cities so quickly, allowing Zinu's army to drive straight in.

Zinu has stayed outside the pass honestly for so many years, but he didn't expect that this time he would be unstoppable.In the battle of Zhenmenguan, Li's family army also died on the battlefield. Li's army is gone now, so Zinu entered the pass and attacked all the way down.

All they know here is the news from the outside, but there is nothing wrong with this matter.

"That's not true. If Zinu goes up, he will go to Fengdu, but if he goes south, he will go down to Nanyang City." Nanyang is a traffic jam between the north and the south. Maybe Zinu's army will come to Nanyang with a U-turn. They It is not safe here near the Northland.Shopkeeper Fang told Cao Xiangnan what he wanted in his heart, "Xiangnan, you have an idea in your heart, how to arrange the family, you should make arrangements early." He said.

Don't wait for something to happen, it will be too late.

"Well, I know." Cao Xiangnan nodded, knowing in his heart.

He was just afraid that something might happen, so he made arrangements logically last time he came back from Nanyang.But if a real disaster comes to them, the little effort he has made will be vulnerable in the face of disaster, so the best thing for him now is to pray that the army of the imperial court can resist Zinu's army, and don't let Zinu The army attacked all the way.

No matter what era it is in, war is extremely cruel, and where there is war, there will be death.

I don't know how the situation of Cao Gang and Wang Dahu are. They went to the front line of the war. Now that the imperial army is retreating steadily, and so many people have died, he doesn't want his friends to be there. When they came back, everyone drank and ate together, and Cao Xiangnan was also very worried when he heard such news suddenly.

"Floods have occurred in many places in the south, and the south is not safe now. I thought it would be best for us to go to the south at this time, and come back after the battle is over." Speaking of this, shopkeeper Fang sighed.

It is not safe to flee to the south at this time, who knows what will happen there.

The two sat together and talked for a while, Cao Xiangnan left from Yipinzhai.

It hadn't rained for a long time that day, and the sun was shining every day outside. The weather was hot and dry, and people drying the ground had to shed a layer of skin. There were not many pedestrians on the road, and there were many fewer stalls.Walking back along the way, he also noticed some slight changes in the town, which was not a good sign.

In modern times, even if it does not rain for a year or so, there is nothing to be afraid of. There are reservoirs in every place, and tap water is used in cities.Even when the tap water stops sometimes, you can go out and buy some emergency water, unlike in this era, once there is no rain, there is really no water, and no water means that the crops in the field cannot grow. People In any era, no water and food means death, and death will force people to do many things.In the face of survival, survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest, everything will become extremely cruel.

He hoped that this small town could continue to be so peaceful. Even if people temporarily had a hard time because of the tyranny of the court, it would be easier than facing the enemy's knife. Once that time came, those who could survive Not much really.

The current situation in the Northland is not optimistic. Even if you don't guard against Zenu's army coming, you must guard against the bandits and the refugees who came all the way.People are hungry, in order to survive, they can only snatch food from other people's mouths, and then they will do everything.

At this time, Cao Xiangnan was very grateful that the outer parapet wall of Caojia Village could be built in a few days, only the tunnel below was not dug through, and he had to rush into the village to tell the news. Just with the village chief and the others.

"Daddy."

"Hey baby."

The children in the family were very enthusiastic when they saw their father came back. Cao Xiangnan hugged Xiao Baoer who rushed over with his short legs, and saw the smile on the child's face.His family's baby is still so innocent, and still doesn't understand anything, his heart is a little heavy.

Qi Wanfeng saw that Fulang's expression was not right, so he asked, "Fulang, what happened outside?"

Cao Ruile, who was abandoned by Xiao Baoer, was still sitting among a pile of toys, and when his father came back, he looked up.

That heartless little Bao'er abandoned him and ran to hug his father's thigh, as if he forgot that he was crying just now and wanted his elder brother to play with him.Thinking of this, Cao Ruile felt jealous of his father.

"Well, there's something wrong." Cao Xiangnan put down the little guy he was holding and asked him to go play with his elder brother.

He also read the letter from Nanyang, and what he said in the letter was similar to what he knew from shopkeeper Zhao.

Cao Xiangnan told Wanfeng about what was in the letter, and he didn't intend to hide it from Qi Wanfeng. At this time, everyone wanted to know what was going on. Also, he had asked Shopkeeper Fang to help contact Cao Gang and the others. I don’t know what’s wrong, Cao Gang and Wang Dahu are hard to find now, so we can’t get in touch with them.”

None of them wanted to believe that something would really happen to the people on the battlefield, but if they went to the battlefield, they would almost die, and those who could come back alive were lucky, and they all hoped that those who went to that place would come back alive.

This war has just begun, Zinu's army is coming fiercely, and Dafeng's army has been beaten and retreated steadily. If the country is really lost, it will be the poor people.I don't know what happened next, if Zinu's army really came, they, the people of Dafeng, would have nowhere to go.

"Oh, how did this happen? Fulang, what should I do about this?" When Qi Wanfeng heard this, he also thought of the person who was going to the Northland.If Sun Bailian finds out about this, I don't know what to do, but I'm afraid it won't be kept secret for long.

"There's nothing we can do about it right now. Don't worry. We have to believe that Brother Cao Gang and Dahu are probably fine. I'll ask Shopkeeper Fang to send someone to continue contacting and see if we can contact Brother Cao Gang and Dahu on the ground." Cao Xiangnan These words are also mostly comforting, and no one can avoid worrying in their hearts.

In the current situation, it is not easy to find someone. Now everyone is eager to escape from the Northland and get farther and farther away from Naznu's army. Who will go to the Northland at this time.But someone will always go there, Cao Xiangnan knows that shopkeeper Fang has his own way.

"Yeah." Qi Wanfeng replied, so that's the only way to go.

The two discussed this matter, and the grain in the field was about to be harvested, and when the grain was harvested, they would go back to the village to live.When the time comes to see what's going on, they can make arrangements in case they have something to do in the village.

The children in the family go to the academy to study every day, and they also need an adult to take the children there, so as not to cause any accidents on the way.

The best thing is that the court can drive Zinu away, which is the wish of everyone in their hearts.
