Chapter 122: Trampled by people, forced to flee
Cheng Su knew that he was disabled, so he would never cause trouble to his family at the critical moment, nor would he waste time with nagging. He hurriedly held his son's hand, nodded in agreement, and told the aunt and nephew to be careful and protect themselves, and to go and come back quickly, and then let them go.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the aunt and nephew stepped out of the room, the whole inn became chaotic.

It turned out that the noise of Xu Miaoniang accidentally breaking the lamp just now made a loud noise in the night, which attracted the attention of people who were not well-awake nearby. They got up and lit the lamp to check. The noise woke up more people, and then the guests living on the second floor facing the street heard something wrong on the street. They opened the window to check, and soon the whole inn was in chaos.

Li Yaoguang's heart skipped a beat when he saw that the situation was not good. He pulled his aunt tightly and prepared to speed up to lead the animals. Unexpectedly, he ran into Shen Yue who had returned halfway. With the help of the fires that were lit up all over the yard, Li Yaoguang actually saw blood on the other person's body. Li Yaoguang became anxious.

"General Shen, what's going on?"

When Shen Yue saw that it was them, he quickly sheathed his sword, strode forward, dragged Li Yaoguang and walked back, saying as he walked: "There is no time to explain. There was a mutiny in the army, and Hu Di took the opportunity to break into the city. We must leave immediately."

Upon hearing the sad news, Yu Meixue stumbled, but she regained her balance immediately, and followed Li Yaoguang and the others swiftly, running back to the house and calling for her relatives to hold her son.
When Cheng Su heard the bad news, he left without saying a word, leaning on the new crutches Shen Yue had bought for him;
Only Xu Miaoniang was still a little slow. When they arrived, not only had Yi Ge'er not put on his clothes, but Xu Miaoniang's baggage had not been packed either.

Seeing this, Yu Meixue and Li Yaoguang hurried in to help. Yu Meixue quickly put clothes on Yi Ge'er, and Li Yaoguang quickly stuffed all the things on the bed into the bag, tied it neatly, and stuffed it into Xu Miaoniang's arms.

"go!"

Xu Miaoniang's eyes darkened and she stammered, but she didn't dare to delay. Looking at the panicked and anxious face of the person in front of her, she didn't dare to ask any more questions. She hugged her bag tightly and followed closely.

The group gathered in the courtyard outside the gate. Li Yaoguang asked Shen Yue, "What should we do next?"

Shen Yue pointed to the direction where he jumped in, "The wall there is low, and it is temporarily safe outside. We can climb over the wall and then go out of the city directly."

"Okay." Li Yaoguang said nothing more, called his family and left.

Yu Meixue looked at her husband worriedly, "Guang'er, our BMW..."

Before Li Yaoguang could answer, Shen Yue hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, time is running out. It's too late to go over there. Besides, the animals can't climb over the wall. I'm afraid I can't take them with me."

"But your elder brother Cheng..."

"No problem, I'll do it." Shen Yue said, hanging the knife on the belt around his waist, and bowed in front of Cheng Su, "Come on, Brother Cheng, I'll carry you. After we leave the city, I'll find a way to find a way for you to walk."

The situation was urgent, Cheng Su did not hesitate and covered Qi with his hands;
Li Yaoguang, who felt regretful that he had no chance to own a BMW, hurriedly took his cousin by the hand and asked his aunt to protect his uncle.
Yu Meixue nodded, and left her son to her niece with confidence, and quickly followed Shen Yue's footsteps;

However, they didn't notice that someone was holding a bundle tightly in the darkness behind them, looking at their backs with flickering eyes. He didn't even care about his younger brother beside him. It was Yu Meixue who subconsciously turned back to check on her own child and found something was wrong. She hurried back and took the hand of the bewildered Yi Ge'er, so that she didn't leave the child behind.

When they came to the base of a not-so-high wall, Shen Yue stopped and looked back, "I'll take Brother Cheng out first, and I'll come in to pick you up later."

Li Yaoguang waved his hand, "No need." Then he didn't care about the outsiders and wanted to hide the secret. He immediately put out the ladder that had made great contributions and placed it on the wall. He said to Shen Yue: "We can climb the ladder quickly. You just take my uncle out. Be careful."

This was not the time to talk nonsense, Shen Yue nodded, "Okay, I'll go outside to meet them." He then jumped up and flew out with the people on his back. Li Yaoguang also hurriedly urged everyone to go up. Yu Meixue went up first, sat on the wall to meet the two children, then put her down to meet Shen Yue outside, then Xu Miaoniang, and finally himself. There were no accidents during the journey, and the whole family landed safely. However, when Li Yaoguang put the ladder back to the space, he did not see the look of astonishment that flashed across someone's eyes.

"Let's go to the south gate."

When they first checked in, they intentionally chose an inn near the South City Gate so that if something unexpected happened, they could escape from the South City Gate as quickly as possible.

It’s a pity that although the plan was good, the situation turned out to be beyond their control.

The emperor's Tsinghua and Peking University plan not only diverted the grain reserves along the canal, but also affected Wuding Prefecture. Even though this place is an important coastal defense city, under the situation of the foolish emperor and the incompetent court cutting off its own path, half of the grain was diverted, and it was not easy to sustain the remaining half until now.

In addition, as the superiors set an example, officials became increasingly concerned about their own safety. In order to protect themselves, they came up with endless means of corruption, and the ones who suffered the most were the lower-level soldiers.

With no food to eat and no wages to pay, the family was starving to death. The lower classes rose up in resistance, and behind the scenes, the old rivals, the Japanese bandits, instigated and secretly instigated them. In addition, Shen Yue's old uncle was stubborn and careless, so a mutiny suddenly broke out in the army and was taken advantage of by the enemy. Wuding City was attacked from both inside and outside and turned into a living hell...

At this moment, all four gates were in chaos at the same time. Li Yaoguang and others, who were trapped in a jar, had no idea of ​​this. They only knew that the South Gate was in chaos and they could not escape.

The common people were like frightened birds in a cage, running for their lives in a panic. Danger was everywhere, both inside and outside the city. The city gates had been blocked long ago, and the city walls were stained with blood. There were cries of killing, and there was no place to stand...

They went upstream with great difficulty. The South City Gate was within reach but there was no way out. They also had to protect the young and weak and struggle in the sea of ​​terrified people. They were forced to turn around amid the sounds of fighting, evil laughter, screams and howling coming from all around. They had to be swept away by the flow of people and passively escape in the direction of the rushing crowd.

"Mom, where are you?"

"My son, who has seen my son?"

"Slow down, slow down, don't step on me, ignore me..."

There were more and more people crying in fear around her, and Li Yaoguang felt that it was getting more and more crowded. No matter how much she wanted to, there was nothing she could do in this situation. She was forced to follow and escape...

"Aunt, Shen Yue, Sister Miao Niang, everyone, please follow closely and try to walk to the side. Don't get separated."

They were also afraid that the stampede incidents that were often seen in the news would happen to them and they would become the unlucky ones, so they shouted at the top of their lungs.

"When the crowd is crowded and you can't move, you can make a fist with your left hand, hold your left wrist with your right hand, and spread your elbows flat on your chest to create a certain space to ensure breathing. If you fall down, immediately put your hands behind your head to protect your head and find a corner or other secluded place to hide as much as possible, squat aside and protect yourself..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Yaoguang quickly took out a long scarf from the space, and hugged the little cousin who was staggering but still gritting his teeth to hold on, without stopping her feet and moving her hands quickly. She used the scarf to hold Yang Ge'er in her arms face to face in the modern way of holding a baby in the chest. At the same time, the electric baton in her hand was ready at any time. If she was oppressed, she would become the bad guy.

The group formed a long line, tightly connected. Shen Yue led the way, and Li Yaoguang led the way. Everyone followed her instructions and tried to walk to the side. They didn't know how long they had walked, and they didn't know where they were at the moment. East of the city, west of the city? Or north of the city?
It was not until Li Yaoguang saw the familiar stream ahead that he realized that this was the east of the city where Linhai Pavilion, where he had been before, was located.
