Chapter 9 Arriving at Lecheng
"Here, this is for you!" Jiang Nan said, handing over two groups of dead grass.

It's really dry grass, it's all black...

"Can this be eaten?" He Tiantian looked at him in surprise.

Jiang Nan was slightly embarrassed, "This is called Nine Dead Resurrection Grass, which has the effect of stopping bleeding and restraining."

Well, He Tiantian chose to believe this little Chinese medicine doctor, "Then I will eat it."

After chewing a bite, her brows furrowed, "It's so bitter..."

"Drink some water first and then I'll do it. When I get to Lecheng, I'll buy you some candy."

He Tiantian didn't notice his coaxing childlike expression at all, but said, "Is there a seller in Lecheng?"

"There should be, I hope there is..." Jiang Nan looked at the east.

The drought is definitely not a small area. Lecheng and Baoshan Town are not far away, and the situation is definitely not much better.

I just wish everyone could add some water so that we can continue on our way.

They had already scooped up the puddle last night, and the mud below had formed hard lumps, and the group was on the road again.

No one in the Jiang family found that Jiang Yin was missing until the team passed the dried-up puddle. Jin Feng stumbled and shouted, "People! There is a dead person!"

Everyone glanced at it numbly, but they all rushed on their way in silence, fleeing the desert. It is normal for a few to die.

But in the next moment, Jin Feng shouted again: "Oops!"

It turned out that the "dead man" suddenly came alive and grabbed her ankle.

"Water... water..." Jiang Yin said weakly.

It was only then that Jiang Shi realized that his second son, who didn't live up to his expectations, was covered in mud, like a mud figurine...

"You bastard! Hurry up if you don't die!" Jiang Shi said, handing him a bamboo tube.

After all, it was his own son, and he couldn't just watch him die.

Happy City.

There were many officers and soldiers on the streets, but no people were seen.Occasionally a few shops are open, but the doors are cluttered.

Zhenyuan Houfu.

Singing and dancing, chicken and duck wine.

Marquis Zhen Yuan stood tall and looked at the dancer below, but his brows were still tightly locked.

"Stop jumping! Go down!" He suddenly swept the cup from his hand, and the wine spilled on the ground.

The dancers hurriedly backed away, led a flirtatious woman to walk forward slowly, poured wine for him again, and while helping him smooth, he said softly: "Master Hou, calm down, natural and man-made disasters, how can you control this? …”

"This Marquis is not for the victims of the disaster," said Marquis Zhenyuan, holding Hongyue on his lap and playing with her creamy hand, "What does the disaster have to do with me? There are only three months left in the birthday, but I haven't found any treasures suitable for offering!"

"Didn't a lot of disaster victims come in as things recently? There's nothing special about it?" Hongyue leaned in his arms and spoke softly.

"They are all made of gold and silver, how can they catch the eyes of the Holy One! The most decent thing is the jar that was collected two days ago. It is a thing from the Guangyuan period, and it should be more than 800 years old..."

"Oh my god!" Hongyue said with surprise on her face, "The Holy Majesty always likes rare things, these 800-year-old antiques should be able to catch his eyes..."

"Alas!" The Marquis of Zhenyuan sighed, "It's a good thing, but I don't know when it has been used by those vulgar farmers to pickle vegetables. It has a sour smell, and it has been washed dozens of times. I can't wash..."

"Master Hou, don't worry, there are still three months left, and more victims have fled the famine recently..." Hongyue said, raising her glass to the mouth of Zhenyuanhou.

The Marquis of Zhenyuan drank the fine wine and embraced the beauties, inside and outside the house, inside and outside the city, as if there were two heavens.

outside the city.

The smile on He Tiantian's mouth could not be suppressed.

Last night, she found that all the things she planted had sprouted, and not only did they sprout, but they also sprang up a lot, and there were buds on them.

It looks like this planting will be successful!

In addition, she was already outside Lecheng, so she planned to go to the city to get some things, and then buy some pots and jars to collect water, and buy some seeds of this era by the way, so that she would not panic on the way to escape.

It's just that there are too many officers and soldiers at the gate, and the village Changjiang engineer was a little apprehensive, so he found Jiangnan.

"I said Jiangnan, you have seen a lot of people, and you can speak well, why don't you go and ask if they will let you in?"

"It's done." Jiang Nan nodded, "Before I come back, everyone will stay here, and no one should run around."

Aunt Jiang held him worriedly, "I heard from the old people that people who escaped from the famine in the past were beaten to death when they entered the city. You can be careful!"

"Don't worry, mother, I will tell them well, they are not unreasonable people."

Although his face was muddy and his clothes were dilapidated, Jiangnan had a calm and determined temperament.

He Tiantian wanted to enter the city more than any of them, so he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Aunt Jiang, I will follow a group. If the officers and soldiers are in trouble, I will quickly drag Brother Jiang to run."

In front of outsiders these days, He Tiantian is a gentle person. No one thought that it was her who killed Hu San that night and scared the bandits away.

Jiang Yin said it, but who can believe that He Tiantian, a little girl with only chopsticks, can fight a big man bravely?

Only He Cuicui knew it, but that was her second sister, so she wouldn't talk too much!
So Jiangnan and He Tiantian went to the city gate under the attention of hundreds of people.

On the way, Jiang Nan whispered, "Who the hell are you?"

"What are you talking about?" He Tiantian deliberately looked at him innocently, as if he didn't understand.

Jiangnan helped her forehead, this little girl, at first she thought she was kind, but who knew ghosts and ghosts.

Oh, right!She is not a little girl, she is the same year as herself, and she is fifteen this year...

It is said that the birthdays are all the same, it is November, that is, the first day of her life, regardless of her life...

The gate is near.

The soldiers at the door were all armed with murderous aura, with faces that no strangers should approach.

Jiang Nan stepped forward, and he was still several steps away, when the soldier drew his knife and said, "It is strictly forbidden to enter the city casually! Trespassers will be killed!"

"I won't break through, I won't break through!" Jiangnan took a step back. "Brothers, we are from Dazhai Village, Baoshan Town. We want to go into the city to buy some food and water. How can we get in?"

The soldier rolled his eyes and rubbed his fingers.

ho!Five hundred wen is half a tael of silver. In the first two years, I was able to buy fifty buckets of rice, which is like killing some people!

"Can we discuss it?" Jiang Nan asked again.

"No money? Do you have something to dang? You can pawn it and give it again, but if you leave the city before dark, you will be caught and beaten to death!"

Jiangnan gave He Tiantian a wink, and the two stepped back.

Back at the place where Dazhai Village rested, Jiangnan told Jiang Dagong about this, and the victims immediately groaned.

"Five hundred coins? Why don't you grab it?"

"You can buy [-] buckets of rice for less than five hundred liters, right? If you want to buy more coarse grains, wouldn't this cost your life?"

"Even if you collect five hundred cents for them, what are you going to buy in the city? I won't go in! Just wait here and die!"

There are many Jiang family members, and Aunt Jiang called the big guys together and held a family meeting.
