Chapter 84 There are too many coincidences
Bai Dashan: "Auntie, don't worry, Shanquan and the others are experienced and will definitely act carefully."

My aunt gave me such great abilities, equipped me with such good weapons and equipment, and also taught me a lot of reconnaissance skills.

But they can just take a look at the situation in Niuluo Town from afar and get some information. If they can't do this well, how can they have the nerve to come back and see me?

Bai Shanquan left the team with three people, while the rest followed Bai Tao's instructions and took a detour to Niuluo County.

After walking seven or eight miles, we found a suitable place to camp and then stopped to set up camp.

The people from Taohua Village suddenly turned and changed lanes, which puzzled some of the people who were following them, but some people looked at the situation at the post station and figured it out, and then followed closely.

Among those who fled, many were trying to avoid the Hu people, and they all wanted to hide in a nearby county town and return home after the Hu people left.

But the current situation has dumbfounded those who had this plan.

How to do?
I’m afraid I can’t go to Niuluo County, so I can only keep moving forward.

The four members of Baishanquan traveled quickly all the way, focusing on the idea of ​​going there and coming back quickly.

When they came back, the people in Taohua Village had already had their meal.

Bai Tao had someone bring the food that had been prepared earlier to the four of them, but they were in no hurry to eat. Instead, they were busy reporting what they had learned.

"Auntie, something did happen in Niuluo County. They were besieged by the Hu people for several days. There were few defenders in the city, and they were unable to defeat the Hu people. They were killed by the Hu people and entered the city..."

"Nowadays, nine out of ten houses in Niuluo County are empty, and many people are fleeing."

Bai Tao's guess was correct. Small but prosperous and bustling counties like Niuluo County were the primary targets of the Hu people's "hunting".

After a pause, Bai Shanquan lowered his voice and said, "Auntie, there were several waves of Hu people who robbed Niuluo County. When they retreated, they also split into several groups. One of them was the one we encountered."

Bai Tao was surprised: "What a coincidence?"

"Aunt, I was just guessing." Bai Shanquan wasn't sure either, but from the information he had heard, it was pretty close.

"No wonder." Bai Tao thought of the gold, silver and jade artifacts collected by the villagers when they cleaned up the battlefield. Now they knew where they came from.

On the side, Bai Dashan counted on his fingers and his face turned pale instantly.

Looking at Bai Tao who was chewing on a milk bar, he said with lingering fear: "Auntie, thanks to you."

"If you weren't here, we might be in Niuluo County, then..."

If the people of Taohua Village had not first taken shelter in a cave, then stayed in Longba, and then stayed in front of the Heifengzhai Valley for a few days, they would have entered Niuluo County long ago.

As a result, the village was blocked by the Hu people in Niuluo County, and it was unknown how many of the old and young in the village could survive.

If I hadn't asked everyone to clear the dragons and overturned trees, we might have run into other retreating Hu people on the road. If the wives of all the women in the village happened to start a rebellion at this time, then...

Or maybe he was rushing into Niuluo County to find a doctor for his daughter-in-law who was about to give birth. There were several waves of Hu people around, and if he took a wrong step he would either be blocked in the city or face them head-on.

Thinking of this, even in such a cold weather, Bai Dashan would break out in a cold sweat.

God bless you, no, it’s our ancestors who blessed Taohua Village with such a lady, which allowed Taohua Village to avoid so many crises.

After hearing what Bai Dashan said, the others also gasped.

That’s right. So many Bohu people were avoided by my aunt by coincidence. Can it be said to be just a coincidence?
The barbarians we met in the cave were the ones who came to us on their own. At the beginning, I asked everyone to set up the steel coils and fences...

Bai Tao blinked her eyes. It seemed as if she was very powerful when she said that. However, God knew that she only stayed because there happened to be valuable things to loot and exchange for money.

Faced with the villagers' grateful and admiring eyes, Bai Tao didn't know how to explain for a moment.

Forget it. There were so many perfect coincidences that even she herself began to doubt herself, let alone how to explain it to the villagers.

"Ahem~" Bai Tao coughed twice and changed the subject: "Okay, you are all hungry, let's eat quickly." Seeing the situation in Niuluo County, not only other people, but even the people in Taohua Village were at a loss for a moment.

"Auntie, where are we going next?"

"Let's go forward and visit Pu County."

Bai Tao has done some research. Since Jin State ceded three cities in a row, even if there is no major war between the two countries in the future, there will be minor frictions.

If they get too close to the border, they will inevitably be harassed frequently, and Bai Tao doesn't want to be feasted on by the villagers every now and then.

The villagers agreed without hesitation: "Okay, we'll listen to you."

"Wherever my aunt goes, we will go."

The whole village ran out, naturally following my aunt.

Pu County is seven or eight days away from here. The road conditions and means of transportation in ancient times were very different from those in later times. It might take ten days or half a month to walk a distance of less than 30 kilometers.

Traveling is not a difficult task for the people of Taohua Village, but Bai Tao still reminded the villagers who have pregnant women at home to be more careful and tell them immediately if they feel unwell.

Having said almost everything, Bai Tao went back to the tent, while Bai Dashan continued to arrange matters.

"Have a good rest after you finish eating." These words were said to Bai Shanquan and the other three.

"Everyone else, please be alert, especially those on duty. You must not let your guard down and fall asleep."

Bai Dashan continued, "There are many people fleeing right now, and everything is in chaos. We don't know how many people are watching us. It's not easy to save up this little fortune, so make sure it's not taken away by others."

"Village chief, don't worry, we will definitely take good care of it."

"We will definitely not let anyone touch our village's things."

Are you kidding? These things are collected by everyone with great effort. If anyone dares to touch them, I will fight him to the death!

Bai Tao had a good night's sleep.

While eating breakfast, she noticed that there were a lot of inexplicable eyes staring at her today. She remembered that she heard a few noises in the middle of the night, so she asked, "Nothing happened in the middle of the night?"

"It's alright."

"Auntie, everyone is fine."

"Yes, yes, the belongings and other things are all in good condition, nothing is lost."

Yesterday, several groups of people tried to steal the carriage at night, but they were caught by the villagers on duty before they reached the carriage.

Can the people in Taohua Village be spoiled?

Naturally, I beat the guy up without saying a word and threw him out of the camp, but don't let me know about this.

Hearing this, Bai Tao nodded and then reminded: "Next, there will be a lot of people on the road, everyone should be alert and be more careful."

Although there are many people in Taohua Village, there are both old and young.

The people who have been targeting Taohua Village have not taken action in the past two days and are unable to understand the situation, but this may not be the case in the future.

"Hey, auntie, don't worry."

The people of Taohua Village don't take the initiative to cause trouble, but they are not afraid of trouble either.

　I haven't been in good shape these past two days, so I will update the remaining chapter today during the day.

　　Please ask for leave from the little cuties first~~~
