The sound of war drums was heard by more and more people even though the city was noisy.
The people who were still left on the street all had pale faces, and they knew very well what the sound of the drums meant.
In the past, the Blood Wolf Camp was still there, but now the Blood Wolf Camp has quietly left without any reason, leaving the people in the city who trusted them to be slaughtered. Such behavior is really chilling.
Qin Yue saw the expressions on these people's faces and could roughly understand their mood.
It's heartbreaking now. When the Que thieves come in, the people's hatred for the Blood Wolf Camp will probably be no less than that of the Que thieves.
To be honest, Qin Yue didn't want to sit back and wait for death, but she didn't know how to solve the current situation.
The officers and soldiers in the city arrested her everywhere and closed the city gates, refusing to let her leave. Outside the city, the thieves beat thunderous drums, waiting for the army to attack the city.
"We can't sit still and wait for death." Qin Yue said in a daze.
The old couple had long since run out of ideas. At this moment, they were trembling with fear and suddenly didn't know what to do next.
Qin Yue frowned with a look of confusion on her face, and was suddenly held tightly by a small hand.
Lowering his head, he saw Dabao's firm eyes.
Qin Yue nodded, "You can't escape by running, and you can't escape by hiding. Then try to fight."
Her tone was calm, as if she was speaking ordinary words, but the old couple were frightened.
"Don't do stupid things. What can you do as a woman?" The aunt stepped forward and stopped her.
Not to mention a house full of women, now there are men all over the city, what can they do!
Qin Yue pulled them away.
Dabao followed closely in silence, and the old couple had no choice but to follow step by step. Seeing her heading straight towards the government office, they suddenly became frightened.
The aunt hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Qin Yue. Just as she was about to ask her what she wanted to do, a group of officers and soldiers rushed over.
The aunt's face turned pale with horror, and she subconsciously wanted to pull Qin Yue away.
Not only did Qin Yue not run away, but she ran towards the officers and soldiers.
She wants to see the magistrate!
Seeing the eyes of the officers and soldiers falling on her, one of them stretched out his hand towards her.
Qin Yue was about to say something when she was pushed away forcefully.
"Get out of the way!"
"..."
A group of officers and soldiers just left. Qin Yue was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
Aren't you going to catch her?
You can't be mistaken.
It's definitely not a mistake, it's just something happened during this period.
Half an hour ago, he was searching everywhere for her, and half an hour later, he turned a blind eye to her.
There is only one possibility.
The person who issued the order is gone!
The magistrate ran away?
Qin Yue's eyes lit up when she thought of this possibility.
The city gate is still closed. If the magistrate can go through, there must be a secret passage.
She led the people straight to the government office. Not only was the journey smooth, but no one stopped them even when they entered the government office. The maids and servants were in a mess, either grabbing things or running out with their luggage.
It seems that the family members of the government office have already evacuated.
Qin Yue grabbed a maid and asked, "Where is the county magistrate?"
The maid was very impatient and wanted to get rid of Qin Yue. Qin Yue looked sharply and said, "Where is the county magistrate?"
The maid was startled and immediately stammered that she didn't know either.
"We haven't seen the master for seven or eight days!"
Qin Yue's heart skipped a beat and she had a bad premonition.
"Where are his family members!"
"Madam, young master and the others... they said a month ago that they were going to Zhuangzi to escape the summer heat."
Qin Yue let go of the maid and let her escape, biting her silver teeth secretly, the hope in her heart was shattered at this moment.
The magistrate's family is afraid that the golden cicada escaped from its shell before the city gate was closed, and everyone who didn't know why was still living peacefully in the city.
Damn it, this is about asking the people of a city to pay homage to the thief Que's cavalry!
Qin Yue was simply unbelievable. She didn't believe that a city magistrate could do this. There must be a higher level of meaning.
Even then...
But she didn't understand why she did this!
"How can we escape if the city gate is not opened!" cried a maid.
Another maid stared at the chaotic streets outside and said slowly: "Have you ever thought about where we can escape even if the city gate is opened?"
Yes, outside the city is the cavalry team of the thieves. Opening the city gate will only kill you faster!
Although Yundu City has two gates, as a border city, in order to concentrate its combat power, the other gate was directly blocked by a large stone.
This was originally done to protect the people in the city, but now it has become its own grave.
Upon hearing these words, the maid cried even louder, but it stopped abruptly with a muffled sound of 'bang'.
Qin Yue and others looked over and saw that the maid behind had hit her head against a pillar and died.
The maid stopped crying and stared at the man's body. Waves of despair surged into her heart. She rushed towards the pillar with all her strength and was killed.
Qin Yue took two steps forward but was already too late, watching helplessly as two fresh lives disappeared before her eyes.
The aunt looked at the two maids in rapt attention, and the old man beside her reached out and grabbed her arm.
"Don't do stupid things until the last moment. When the moment comes, let's go together." The old man said.
The aunt nodded blankly, her expression actually relaxed a lot.
If the thief can have a good time when he enters the city, it will be the best ending.
The aunt thought and couldn't help but look at Qin Yue.
This beautiful face will become the original sin at this time.
Qin Yue was unwilling to die like this. After finally reviving her life, she had to live longer!
Chaos spread everywhere, and Qin Yue couldn't do anything to gather people together.
She is not as strong as she thought...
The strength seemed to be drained away, and the body gradually became weak.
Dabao stretched out his hand to hold Qin Yue and called softly: "Mother."
Qin Yue turned a deaf ear.
Dabao was a little panicked. The person who had always had the most ideas had no idea, and he also lost his backbone.
If Qin Yue gives up, there is really no hope.
Dabao didn't know what to say, he always felt that as long as Qin Yue didn't give up, there would be a way.
Qin Yue looked at the pillar, which made Dabao frightened. He couldn't care less and saved Qin Yue at once, looking up at her with tears in his eyes.
"No mother!"
Qin Yue smiled bitterly. If it really came to the last moment and knew that being caught would be worse than death, then he would naturally choose to die happily.
She touched Dabao's head and said softly: "It's okay."
But she didn't look like she was fine.
Dabao was extremely frightened, fearing that she would be like the two maids, if she didn't pay attention...so he kept holding Qin Yue and didn't dare to let go.
Qin Yue is a little confused. A clever woman cannot make a meal without rice. No matter how much knowledge she has, it is completely useless now.
"Qin Yue!"
A clear voice sounded, like a blast to the ears, making Qin Yue turn her head sharply.
At the gate, Lu Yunjing strode over, accompanied by Xue Yunzong and others.
