In the morning of the second day, Taurus took Bai Xiu, who was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes, to the City Gate. The Bai Family's villa was very close to the City Gate, and it only took Da Niu the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to drive an ox-cart.

Da Niu told the cow to stop and look carefully. 'Hey, why is there no one here today? The sky is already bright. According to how everyone was waiting for the entrance to the city yesterday, there should be a lot of people queuing up to enter the city.

Bai Xiu woke up from his stupor and looked at Da Niu's serious expression. He whispered, "Taurus, are we not going to go forward?"

Da Niu suddenly saw a group of soldiers approaching towards City Gate aggressively from afar. The sound of their horses' hooves was like thunder and Da Niu was stunned for a moment.

Bai Xiu got up and climbed down the oxcart: "Taurus, are these our soldiers?"

He grabbed Bai Xiu and ran towards the In the Wood by the side of the road. Luckily, the enemy had taken a different path and did not see the two of them. Otherwise, Bai Xiu and Da Niu's lives would have been lost here.

Bai Xiu was so shocked by the sudden turn of events that he was speechless. He followed behind Da Niu while holding his head low until the two of them went over a small hill. Da Niu said, "That person might be an enemy, I think they aren't even planning to call for us. They even took out their weapons.

At this moment, the person Bai Xiu wanted to see the most was his family, but the brothers in the manor had also lost their lives, and if the enemy troops could not enter the city, it would be terrible for his manor. "Taurus, why don't you go to the manor and inform your brother, I will head to Two Li Stall."

Da Niu couldn't possibly let a little kid like Bai Xiu walk several tens of miles back home. "How about this, there's a horse in the manor. Let's go back to the manor first, then I'll take you to Two Li Stall. Riding horses is faster than you can walk."

In this life or death situation, the two of them did not speak anymore nonsense.

Bai Xian would also be going to the Bai Yue Stall today. Some people liked to come to the Bai Yue Stall in the morning to drink tea and eat snacks.

She was in the middle of collecting money when she suddenly heard a panicked voice say, "Old horse, let's go. I heard my friend say that the enemy forces are going to attack the county. Let's quickly escape."

All the guests instantly ran out like a frying pan. Everyone was afraid of fighting so they quickly went home and called their families to help them escape.

When Bai Xian heard the news, the coins in her hands dropped to the ground. Heavens, the enemy really came, then what should she do? Bai Xiu was still in the school in the county, she wanted to bring Bai’s mother along to rescue Bai Xiu.

She quickly closed the Bai Yue Stall's front door, ran to the kitchen in the backyard and found a wooden box in the corner. This wooden box was filled with the Bai Clan's ancestral treasure blade, she ran back to the Bai Clan and collided directly with Bai’s mother, who was about to leave the house.

Bai’s mother looked at Bai Xian who was panicking and asked: "Xian Er, why did you suddenly run back home?"

Bai Xian used all his strength to grab Bai’s mother's arm, and stared at him: "Mother, I have something to tell you, please do not be anxious. "Mother, I heard that the enemy army is going to attack the county. We should go find Little Xiu."

After the Bai’s mother heard Bai Xian's words, she started to panic. She leaned on the door frame weakly and asked, "What did you say?! If the enemies are here, then wouldn't Little Xiu be killed by them as well?"

Bai Xian's heart trembled, she had never seen an ancient war before, in those TV shows, enemies attacking cities would not easily burn and loot, but she did not know if the people of Chu were so particular about demeanor, "Mother, don't panic, no matter what, we must go to the county city to watch, we must definitely save Xiao Xiu."

She didn't believe that she had spent so much effort to escape the murderer's pursuit and also worked so hard to raise the two children. God wouldn't so easily take back Bai Xiu's life: "Alright, we'll go now."

Bai Xian saw that his mother was so anxious, like an ant on a hot pan, he comforted her: "Mother, wait for me at home, I will go look for Song Yue, their family has horses, we can borrow their horses, it will be faster this way."

Since the war had already started in the county, and the Two Li Stall was not a place to stay for long, had discussed it beforehand and decided to leave immediately after finding Bai Xiu to live in another prefecture. Bai Xian would borrow a horse from the Song Family, and the Bai’s mother would go home to pack.

Bai Xian turned and ran towards the Song Family household. The matter of the war had been like a blow to her head. Ever since she came to the ancient times, everything had gone smoothly for her.

She began to panic. If Bai Xiu was captured by the enemy or killed by the enemy, then where would she bring Bai’s mother to? There were also the Song brothers.

Bai Xian missed her phone and the internet so much. In ancient times, a moment of separation represented a lifetime of missing someone, so she would not abandon her brother. But Song Yue?

When she regained her senses, Bai Xian realised that the Song Family entrance was already right in front of her. She knocked on the door, and inside the courtyard, Song Yue was thinking of a countermeasure.

Song Yue noticed Bai Xian's face through the gap in the door and anxiously opened the door: "Bai Xian, why are you here?"

Seeing Song Yue, at this moment, Bai Xian could not help but ask with reddened eyes: "Song Yue, do you know? The enemy troops went to attack the county city early in the morning, do you guys want to leave quickly? "

Song Yue had originally planned to go to the Bai Clan first, and bring the Bai Clan to leave with them. However, at this moment of life and death, he did not care about revealing his true identity, as Bai Xian would hate him, "I was just about to go find you, in a while let Aunt and Bai Xiu come with us."

Bai Xian felt an indescribable happiness seeing that Song Yue planned to follow her, but she still decided to save Bai Xiu. "I want to borrow your horse, Little Xiu is currently in the county city, I want to go and save him."

Song Yue was extremely regretful. He thought that Bai Xian would let him stay at home, but he did not expect Bai Xiu to be at the county city. He did not know the details of the situation there, but wanting to find a child amidst the chaos of war was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"If the enemy armies attack, you will have no way to enter the city, and there will be no way to talk about saving Bai Xiu."

Bai Xian knew that her decision could not be considered wise. In the face of the upcoming war, any rational person would have to protect themselves, but she did not want to give up on any of her family members. "I have to save him, please lend me a horse."

Song Yue would never allow Bai Xian to risk his life: "I'll accompany you home for a while, if you insist on going, I'll lend you the horse."

Song Yue brought out his horse from the stable, he nimbly jumped on it and extended his hand in front of Bai Xian: "Come up."

She could only feel a strong pull on Song Yue's hand. She had already sat in front of Song Yue, and his hands were holding onto the reins, as though he was holding onto Bai Xian's waist. "Drive."
