Chapter 30 Predicting the Plot
Day by day, the paddy fields after the second irrigation are almost dry. People in Xinglin Village are praying for rain every day.

Old Jiangtou encouraged the villagers under the big tree at the entrance of the village to follow the example of other villages in sacrificing boys and girls to God.

The villager with a virgin boy in his family was really reluctant to part with his own son, so he cried and went to Lizheng to intercede, begging Lizheng not to choose his child.It was only then that Lizheng knew what stupid things Old Jiangtou had done.

Lizheng went to Lao Jiang's house with a bamboo whip, and whipped Lao Jiangtou, an old guy who made trouble, until he screamed.

Lizheng said, "I think it's your first offence, and you'll have to be smoked first. If you dare to disturb people's hearts like this in the future, you will open a ancestral hall and drive your whole family out of Xinglin Village!"

Only then did Old Ginger calm down.

Wang Laizi from the village stood in the crowd of onlookers and muttered in a low voice: "Isn't Li Zheng an old fool?
I think the matter of sacrificing boys and girls is okay, what if it really rains after the sacrifice?
Two lives can be exchanged for the lives of a village, or even the lives of eight villages, what a bargain! "

Wang Mangzi hadn't married a wife in his thirties, and naturally there were no children in his family. The matter of virginity was not on his shoulders. He was happy to bet on the lives of other people's children that it would not rain.

Li Zheng has a good ear and can hear his words clearly.

Li Zheng scolded angrily: "You don't know it hurts if the knife doesn't cut yourself, right?

Other villages offered sacrifices. Is it raining?

What a waste of so many children's lives! "

One of those murdered children was his granddaughter.His daughter also died of illness.It's a pity that his daughter married too far away, in another county in Xichang County, when he received the letter, it was too late...

The ruthless look on Li Zheng's face flashed across: "If anyone dares to mention such outrageous things again, I will tie him up first, and set a fire to burn him to death!"

Frightened by Lizheng, everyone in Xinglin Village instantly agreed: what kind of sacrifice is not sacrificed, it is unreliable!Don't mention it to me, anyone who mentions it to me, I will be anxious with whoever!
The story of Lao Jiang's head being beaten spread throughout the village, and Jiang Erya knew that she almost became a sacrificed virgin.

Jiang Erya sighed, fortunately Lizheng was generous and kind, and didn't believe in that, otherwise, she would have to flee Xinglin Village with her father before being burned to death.

In addition to being grateful for Li Zheng, Jiang Erya hated Old Jiangtou.

This old thing is simply inhuman, she and her father have severed ties with him, yet he dared to treat her as a member of Lao Jiang's family and push her out to be a virgin!

Very well, she remembered him!

It's just that now, Jiang Erya has no time to clean up Old Jiang's head.

Because the second batch of grain in her manor was ripe, she had to harvest it as soon as possible, and sow the next batch of seeds as soon as possible after harvesting.

She worked so hard against the clock, all because of lack of money, food can be sold for money.

She desperately needs money to improve her life.Clothing, food, housing, transportation, everything is inseparable from a word of money.

Especially the issue of housing, the side house of the ancestral hall was decided by Lizheng, who temporarily lent it to their father and daughter, and some people in the village were already jealous.

In order not to embarrass Li Zheng, they had to build a house of their own and move out earlier, returning the side house of the ancestral hall to the village.

Motivated to make money, Jiang Erya mowed rice for nearly two hours in one go.

Two hours later, she couldn't hold her back any longer, so she sat on the edge of the field to rest.

She looked at the green fruits on the fruit tree and swallowed her saliva: "Tongzi, why does it take half a month for a batch of these fruits to ripen? Will they taste good after they are ripe?"

Instead of answering her question, the system gave a "ding" and said, "The entire Xichang County is about to usher in a high temperature of over [-] degrees.

This high temperature will last for half a month, and the crops in the field that are already short of water will die directly.

The water shortage in Xinglin Village will be even more serious, and all surrounding water sources will be exhausted.

Faced with this situation, Xinglin Village will organize the villagers to flee the famine together in three days' time..."

When Jiang Erya heard this, she immediately had a plan in mind.

She and her father will no longer participate in the fleeing famine organized by Lizheng. She has a portable manor, no shortage of food or water, so she can survive completely in the village, and she can live longer than those who flee here and there. More moisturizing.

Jiang Erya thought beautifully, but how could the dog system let her go?
It issued a task to her.

"Mission: Participate in the famine escape operation in Xinglin Village, and experience the daily survival of the victims of ancient disasters. Warm reminder, there are many dangers on the way to escape from famine, and you only have one life, please cherish life..."

The old practice, if you don't accept the task, you will die, and if you fail the task, you will die.

Jiang Erya sighed, accepted the difficult task, stepped out of the manor, and told Jiang Erniu the news.

Jiang Erniu was taken aback, so serious?

"The old god really said that?"

Jiang Erya nodded solemnly.The things predicted by the system never happen.

For example, the story about Old Jiangtou and Mrs. Jiang wanting to throw Jiang Erniu, and the story about Fang Jianren going to Lao Jiang's house to steal the money box, all of them came true.

Jiang Erniu looked solemn, thought and thought, and said, "I want to tell Li Zheng the news."

He took a few steps outside, paused, turned around and added, "Don't worry, Erya, I won't mention the old fairy, I'll just say I had a dream..."

Jiang Erya was silent, and said: "It's good to warn in advance, but everyone may not believe your words."

Jiang Erniu said: "As long as one person believes what I say, I won't say it in vain."

After Jiang Erniu left, Jiang Erya re-entered the portable manor, and she had to speed up the harvesting of grain.

After harvesting, they have to be threshed, dried, and packed into bags.

Three days later, she was going to flee the famine, and she had to sell this batch of grain before fleeing the famine, exchange it for money, and stock up some useful things.

……

Jiang Erniu went to Lizheng's house, and told Lizheng the prophecy of the "old fairy" on the pretext of having a dream just now.

Daydreaming?

Sustained high temperature?

Running out of water?

Li Zheng digested it for a while, before saying: "Whether your dream will come true or not, I will tell everyone.

Anyway, let everyone find a way to save more water.

Put everything in the house that can be installed in the house, even if the water source is really dry, it can last for a while. "

If Jiang Erniu's dream doesn't come true, then everyone has nothing to lose except for storing more water.

Thinking of this, Lizheng sent people to call over all the heads of each family.

As soon as everyone arrived, Li Zheng changed the phrase and passed on the important information to everyone.

"Just now, I ran into the old abbot of Sanli Temple who has boundless Dharma.

The old abbot kindly told me the result of his calculation.

He said that our Xichang County will usher in days of hot days..."

Lizheng described Jiang Erniu's daydream as the old abbot's kind words, and the villagers really believed it.

Everyone has heard of the old abbot of Sanli Temple. He is the most accurate in fortune-telling and fortune-telling.

What he calculated must be correct.

Without Li Zheng’s urging, the heads of each family hurried home, called the old and the young, and took away all the water tanks, water bags, water bladders, pots, bowls, basins, plates... everything that can hold water. Filled with water.

Jiang Erniu's heart relaxed, and he was going home after saying goodbye.

As soon as he got home, he received a task from Jiang Erya.

"Father, help threshing the grain, the speed must be fast, the materials needed on the way to escape from the famine, all rely on this batch of grain to exchange..."
