My whole family ran away and farmed in ancient times

Chapter 166 Food Outage Crisis
"Cuckoo." A pigeon flew over and landed on Yanding's shoulder.

He caught the pigeon, took off the letter box on its feet, opened it and took out the letter inside, and there were only a few words on it.

Come back soon!

Below is a simple map showing the location.

Yan Ding's heart froze, he found a fire pocket and burned the letter, and took out two cloth straps for leggings.

After his observation and practice during this period, he found that walking with leggings can protect the legs.

I am about to run a long distance, wearing leggings can get twice the result with half the effort.

He summoned his men and told them to continue escorting Mi Wenyan and his party, and took two of them into the air.

Before Mi Wenyan's family fled famine, the little general explained that he would not use himself unless it was absolutely necessary.

Now it was a last resort, he had to rush to the capital of Daxia all night long.

Regarding his departure, Mi Wenyan and the others were unaware of his departure.

Their food reserves are basically exhausted, and they are about to enter the most difficult stage.

And refugees began to appear on the road one after another.

I don't know if the people who planned the route have withdrawn, or there are too many refugees and it is impossible to stop them.

Almost everyone couldn't move anymore, they pricked up their ears and waited for Mi Wenyan to give the order to rest.

Mi Wenyan brushed the snow off his forehead and looked back and forth.

There are refugees in the front, and there are also refugees in the back. This section is relatively small, and everyone is too hungry to walk.

"Rest for half an hour, and leave after eating."

The crowd cheered and sat on the ground.

The women responsible for cooking and sharing meals are all in the middle, and the children are also circled in the middle. This is a very safe formation.

Everyone looked at Nan Ke eagerly, waiting for her to check the rice bag and arrange to eat.

Nan Ke checked it from the beginning, sighed secretly, walked to Mi Wenyan and said in a low voice: "Our dry food can only last for three days, and the water can last for a week. There are still some salt and other seasonings. How long is it? Arrived at the destination?"

Mi Wenyan didn't know how long it would take to reach the destination, and whether they could still reach the destination.

"Isn't there still dried vegetables? Let's cook a pot of vegetable soup and let everyone drink some soup to keep warm."

Mi Wenyan didn't mention this, Nan Ke really forgot.

She patted her head and went back to take out the dried vegetable leaves in the bundle and handed them to Laishun's family.

"You invite people to cook a pot of vegetable soup, and give each person half a pancake."

"Hey." This is good, the soup is warm after drinking, and it still takes advantage of the stomach.

Lai Shun's family turned around and arranged for someone to cook the soup.

Half a month ago, she was promoted to the deputy manager of the kitchen, assisting Nan Ke in specific kitchen affairs.

Nan Ke only gave orders and basically didn't do anything.

Fleeing famine for several days made her so exhausted that she didn't even want to speak.

After fleeing famine for so long, the women in the team have all experienced themselves. They quickly dug a hole and put three cauldrons in it.

The people in the outermost row of the team went out for a circle, and a few people came back with a small bundle of firewood.

Laishun's family led the women to take the firewood and started cooking soup.

Mi Wenyan returned to his seat, looking worried at the busy women.

Since yesterday, there are no wild vegetables on the road, let alone other food.

People are starving and freezing to death everywhere.

Now they can still pick up firewood, but in a few days they may not even see firewood.

Dry food can only last three days... The situation is very serious.

All the people present, except the children who were anxiously waiting to eat, were all thinking about the same question.

What will they do after three days?
The road looked as if it had been combed by a grate, and there was not a single grass left. This meal might be their last hot meal.

The threat of hunger made many people frown.

After the rations were distributed, everyone ate slowly, including the children.

Mi Wenyan didn't shy away from their situation, and let everyone know.

There are authentic children in their team, and there are also children from merchants who carry bank notes but cannot buy food. Although their identities are different, they face the same predicament.

The children are very careful when eating, for fear of spilling a little soup or dropping a little dry grain residue.

Minangjia came to Mi Wenyan's side with a bowl in his hand, and communicated with him with his eyes.

We have basically never eaten those black breads, and if we take them out, they can last for half a month.

Mi Wenyan shook his head, just wait.

Black bread was their last store of food, and if they ran out they would die.

Minangjia understands Mi Wenyan's thoughts, so wait a little longer.

They have just entered the stage of food deprivation, and they can last for a few days.

The refugees who caught up behind and the refugees who had left before found that their team had something to eat, so they unconsciously gathered together.

Adults and children looked at the food in the hands of the famine fleeing team in Qingyun County and kept swallowing.

Several hungry women knelt down towards Liu Gang and the others: "Big brother, my daughter hasn't eaten for several days, please..."

Liu Gang finished the steamed bun in a few mouthfuls, and finished the soup with one tap of the bowl to his mouth.

Mi Chengkang moved a little slower, his arm was held by a dirty little hand.

He suddenly thought of his newborn daughter, who had the same small hands.

In a blink of an eye, the little stolen hand snatched the remaining Erhe noodles from his hand and stuffed them into his mouth, rolling his eyes from choking.

The two boys beside her jumped on Mi Chengkang to grab the soup in his bowl.

"What are you doing, what do you want to do?" Liu Gang raised his whip and threw it at them.

As soon as the whip hit the two boys, they gritted their teeth in pain and still refused to move away.

The people in the second row and the third row put down the bowls in their hands, and rushed over to drive away the passers-by who were grabbing food and begging.

Mi Nanshan, who was sitting in the middle, lowered his voice and told Dou Guan'er beside him: "Hurry up and finish eating, otherwise these things will not only cause trouble, but we will also be beaten."

Dou Guan'er speeded up while passing on his words.

The children gnawed on the hard pancakes and swallowed the vegetable soup.

The adults have all stood up, using their bodies to block the refugees who are constantly crowding this way.

Nan Ke stuffed the remaining pancakes into Minanjia's arms, and Zhang Luo hurriedly packed up.

A dizzy woman who was stopped outside the fleeing team in Qingyun County.

Mi Chengping hurriedly backed away, and the team was torn apart.

The rogue girl repeated her tricks and attacked the second, third, and fourth men who squeezed into the middle circle. The women had already put the blame on their backs, led the children and were ready to go.

The hooligan girl could tell at a glance that Nan Ke was the leader of the group, as long as she was caught, there would be nothing to worry about.

With a strange laugh, she staggered towards Nan Ke.

"Don't come here!" Nan Ke reached into the armhole, randomly digging for things in the space.

Minangjia shoved a dagger into her hand, took out another dagger herself, and measured the distance to Minanshan from the corner of her eye. He was safe for the time being, and put on a fighting posture.

Mi Wenyan chased after him at the first time, and saw the rogue girl attacking Nan Ke and kicking her away: "After Big Brother Fang is broken, Uncle Mi Jiu will open the way, and keep the formation on the left and right. No matter who comes close, they will be killed!"

"Good!" Fang Yuanwai and Uncle Mi Jiu said in unison, leading the team to set off.

Mi Wenyan held Nan Ke's hand, trembling uncontrollably, "Are you injured?"

Nan Ke shook her head and followed the pace of Mi Nanshan and Minanjia.

With an unstoppable posture, the fleeing team split the hands on both sides to snatch it and hurried forward.
