Chapter 5: Sandstorm strikes, escape overnight

Tao Qiqi couldn't care less and pulled Tao Qiniang to escape quickly.

While escaping, he quickly pulled off two pieces of cloth from his tattered clothes, handed one to Tao Qiniang, and tied the other to his face.

"My mother wears this around her face to save herself from eating sand. How can we have another sandstorm here??"

"What is a sandstorm? The village has never seen this before!"

"That should be caused by the lack of rain in almost three years. Don't worry about it for now and run away quickly."

After Tao Qiqi finished speaking, she pulled Tao Qiniang to speed up the pace, and the two of them escaped from the sandstorm overnight.

Taojia Village, which is less than ten miles away, was also hit by sandstorms.

In the end, Taojiacun's escape plan had to be advanced.

After all the villagers packed up their belongings overnight, they locked the courtyard doors of their homes and quickly began their escape.

Even though they were busy because of the large number of people, their speed was still not as fast as Tao Qiqi's mother-in-law.

There are pros and cons!!

Fortunately, when it was almost dawn, the sandstorm gradually became smaller.

After escaping all night, if Tao Qiqi hadn't eaten two pancakes just that night and drank a lot of spiritual spring water on the way, he would have definitely killed a time traveler in a live broadcast!!

Of course Tao Qiniang is not much better.

Although she usually works a lot and running around is not a big problem, her physique is no different from Tao Qiqi's, both are very weak.

"Mom... here... the sandstorm... is... much smaller... we... we won't... run away... take a... rest!"

"Okay!!" Tao Qiniang replied breathlessly.

Then the couple sat down and rested against a small stone.

While resting, Tao Qiqi fed Tao Qiniang and himself some spiritual spring water to replenish their strength.

Tao Qiqi then took out two pancakes from the space and one for Tao Qiniang. This was their breakfast.

However, because the two of them had traveled all the way last night, they were tired now. Tao Qiqi suggested: "Mom, let's go over there and take turns to rest for a while, and then we can start our journey later."

"Okay, then you rest first. Mom will watch."

Afterwards, after eating the cakes, the mother-in-law chose a suitable place on the roadside, back to back, closed her eyes and rested in preparation for a rest.

After Tao Qiqi closed her eyes, her spiritual consciousness entered the space.

Although eating and drinking are useless for spiritual consciousness in space, the spiritual energy inhaled is still helpful to the physical body outside.

It can help her recover her strength quickly.

After meditating in the space for half an hour, Tao Qiqi left the space for Tao Qiniang to rest.

Recharge your batteries and keep on going.

The road to escape from the wilderness is long, and walking on two legs is really useless!!

But there is no way. Now that their conditions are limited, they can only bite the bullet and go.

Later, she will try to find some way to get some money, a donkey cart or something.

After two days of escaping at high speed, Tao Qiqi and the others finally encountered no more sandstorms.

But that night, Tao Qiqi was awakened by a sudden noise.

"Run quickly, the bandits are coming!!"

Hearing this voice, Tao Qiqi, as a soldier, stood up with vigilance, and then protected Tao Qiniang behind him.

At this time, the system also sounded an alarm.

[There are bandits approaching! The next target to be shot is the villagers of Taojia Village. There are 50 bandits, and each of them has cold weapons in their hands. 】

[System mission: drive away the bandits and rescue the villagers who helped the master today.]

Regardless of the system tasks, she also had to save her aunt who had helped her in Taojiacun.

"Mom, you hide here and remember not to talk. I'll come as soon as I go."

Tao Qiqi hid Tao Qiniang with a pile of dry firewood and piled some loose hay on top.

After making sure that no one could spot Tao Qiniang, Tao Qiqi covered her face and walked towards the Taojia Village team that was still behind them.

"Brother, there seems to be someone in front of you!"

"Oh, it's true! This is the man who is not afraid of death and dares to block my way of making money." The man who was called eldest brother saw clearly that there was a person in front of him, and signaled the horse to stop with a "haha--".

Tao Qiqi snorted coldly: "Taojia Village is not yours to touch. If you want to survive, leave the money and go back to where it came from!"

"Hey, that's such a loud tone, what if I don't get out today?"

"If you don't get out, you'll also keep your life!"

"Then it depends on whether you have this ability!"

The bandit boss finished his words and raised his right hand to signal, and then dozens of people stood up and rushed towards Tao Qiqi with their swords raised.

Tao Qiqi took out her 92 and shot the bandit boss to the west with one unceremonious shot.

To capture the thief first, capture the king. This is the most basic secret for their soldiers to win quickly.

The bullet penetrated the bandit boss's forehead and disappeared quickly. This is a unique feature of her weapon. It is to prevent someone from learning from it and hurting innocent people.

Sure enough, as soon as the bandit boss fell from his horse, his capable men immediately panicked.

"Are you a human or a ghost?"

Tao Qiqi replied calmly: "Ghost!! So you still want to continue??"

"I'm not afraid of ghosts. Whoever stands in the way of ghosts, ghosts, and snakes will die. Just kill her for me."

'jump--'

"Whoever is not afraid can continue to move forward."

"What should I do, eldest brother, and fourth brother were killed by her, so do we, do we still need to..."

"Nonsense, there are so many of us, but she is the only one. She killed the eldest brother and the fourth brother. Today, even if we risk the lives of all the brothers, we still have to avenge the eldest brother and the fourth brother."

‘Beng——’ The third shot!!

Whoever takes the lead to charge forward, Tao Qiqi will hit him, "What? Have you thought about it? Should you keep your money and go away, or should you keep your life too?" Tao Qiqi finished her words and fired the fourth bullet at will.

, I don’t know who I hit, so the one who fell can only consider himself unlucky.

"I'll give you three numbers to choose from, three!!"

The fifth shot!!

"two!!"

Sixth shot!!

But before Tao Qiqi could count, the bandits behind him ran away, shouting as they ran: "There's a ghost, run quickly, there's a ghost!!"

One person fled, ten escaped, thirty escaped, all in one swarm.

When Tao Qiqi saw this, she did not forget to say: "I advise you to be honest in the future, otherwise I will follow you all the time. As long as you go down the mountain, I will kill you!"

After saying that, Tao Qiqi fired another shot.

The bandits escaped, the mission was completed, and the system's voice came.

[Congratulations to the owner, you have successfully completed the task and unlocked a field of 5 square meters. The system has automatically planted rice and will harvest it in three days, with a yield of 10 kilograms. 】

Listening to this voice, Tao Qiqi felt happy.

In order not to worry Tao Qiniang, Tao Qiqi packed up all the things left by the bandits and hurried back to the place where Tao Qiniang was hiding.

"Mom, I'm back."

When Tao Qiniang heard that her daughter was back, she stood up from the pile of firewood.

Then I checked Tao Qiqi around and then felt relieved.

The bouncing just now made her very flustered. If she hadn't known that she couldn't cause trouble to Qi Qi, she would have flown out to find Qi Qi long ago.

"Mom, we will have a carriage ride in the future." Tao Qiqi happily pointed to the horse that was brought back, and shook the silver she just seized in her hand, "We made a profit this time."

By visual inspection, the silver seized this time should be more than a hundred taels. With this money, it should be enough for them to buy a piece of land and build a small house when they get to the south.

And she can continue to think of ways to make money along the way.

The requirements are not high, there are five hundred taels or one thousand taels, and they will have more choices when they go to the south.
