Unlike the people in the ancient towns in the city who survived under the leadership of the county magistrate, generally speaking, they are in better spirits. Now almost all of them are working hard in the fields and harvesting food.

At the same time, when the town mansion was empty-handed and after the grain harvest was completed, all the government officials were sent out. As long as there was no owner and grain, the government would harvest it.

It's just that the county magistrate's idea is good, but what he can think of, the people can naturally think of. By the time the government officials rush over, most of the fields have been harvested. Even so, it is enough for the county magistrate and the The government officials were pleasantly surprised.

After another round of infectious elimination, the population of the entire Shanggu town has now been drastically reduced again. Some entire villages have been destroyed, and no one in the village is alive. By the time the grain harvest is completed and the armed government officials arrive, the corpses have already rotted into disgrace. The smell of corpses filled the sky, making it impossible for people to approach or even dare to approach.

In the following days, fires were set off in villages almost everywhere in the ancient town, making the already hot air even hotter, but this was the only way to prevent the plague.

At the same time, under the instructions of the county magistrate, not only the town's yamen officials but also the living people were encouraged to kill rats and insects in large numbers, in order to completely eliminate the possibility of the recurrence of the plague.

Living people cherish their lives even more. Knowing that these things may carry the plague virus, almost everyone feels as if they are facing a formidable enemy. Even if they don't see any mice, they will look for mouse holes all over the world. Anyway, this is to eliminate all possibilities.

As for the whole village that was wiped out, the government office was responsible for disinfecting and trapping rats. This was also a disaster-stricken place during the plague. Many corpses were found to have been eaten and rotted. One can imagine the harm caused by rats and insects here.

It can be said that the reason why Shanggu Town can survive so many people is due to the county magistrate, who makes the most correct choice every time.

As for Huajia Village, it has long been forgotten. After all, no one from Huajia Village came when the grain seeds were registered, so naturally it was not the focus of the government officials.

Qin Shu's family is immersed in the joy of building a house at the moment. No matter how turbulent the outside world is, it is not as important as the house, and they don't want to pay attention to it.

Three main rooms, two side rooms, plus the kitchen and firewood shed, as well as the most important cellar and courtyard wall. After more than half a month of hard work by the whole family, they have begun to take shape. Only the top is left, and it will take less than five years. Riko finished it all and looked at the house he had built with his own hands. His joy was indescribable.

As the only woman, what Li has to do besides doing odd jobs is to keep the four father and son well-fed so that they have the strength to build their home early.

At the same time, a lot of ramie and jute were also cut to make weaving cloth and rope. Such a large amount of food could not be exposed all the time. The oilcloth at home was not enough. Although the house could be built quickly, the cloth was not enough. It is indispensable. The clothes on the child and the child's father have been patched and patched, and the bedding is in tatters. If there is another extreme winter, whether the family can survive it. Mrs. Li really doesn't know, and she is really scared. So as long as there is time, the work in hand will not stop, cutting flax, making flax and weaving flax.

Huajia Village is surrounded by forests and fields, and behind the village is Qinggu Mountain. There is no shortage of both ramie and jute.

In short, although I am busy, my life is really going forward.

Crescent City.

A group of children were hard at work weeding in the fields under the scorching sun. The sweat dripping down their cheeks could not dampen the enthusiasm of these children at all.

If Hua Jin were here, she would definitely recognize these children as the big dogs and grass roots she rescued.

The children who were dying in the past have already recovered their spirits. The older ones and the younger ones have survived the plague.

Now that I live in this remote and uninhabited village, a smile appears on my face again. The house I built overnight with my benefactor, my elder brother, is now surrounded by a high mud wall. Not only are vegetables planted in the backyard, As for food, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and some millet and wheat are also being grown in a large open space behind the courtyard.

The first thing they do after waking up every day is not to fill their stomachs, but to fetch water to irrigate the fields, then to weed, and then to find wild vegetables to dry and save as food. These are the things they have to do throughout the day.Although it is repetitive, it is sufficient. You no longer have to worry about life in the city like before.

"Brother Da Liu... It seems that the food will be harvested in less than two months. Do you think the weather can last until then?" Gouzi looked at the scorching sky and asked Da Liu unsteadily. After all, according to normal conditions now, It's already winter, and the New Year is coming soon.

Dogs are most afraid of suddenly entering the extreme winter like the past two years, and they really don’t know how to survive by then.

"Brother Liu... should we go out and collect some cattails?" Gouzi felt cold at the thought of the extreme winter.

Don't think about catkins and the like at this time, but Pu Chuo is not a rare thing, it can be found beside the river.

Da Liu also reacted when Gouzi said this. They were all wearing rags and rags. Although their benefactor left a bundle of burlap in the corner before leaving, they were never willing to use it. Even if the weather was hot, they would wear clothes. It doesn't matter how worn it is, but it's different if it's extremely winter. These cloths can't keep you warm, so you really need to prepare them in advance.

"You are right. You should prepare the Pu Chui in advance. Let's pick it early tomorrow morning, and then we can make clothes together when we have time."

"Yeah," Brother Liu agreed and nodded wildly, finally feeling more at ease.

Oh, and they also need to collect more firewood.

I just don’t know if I will see my benefactor again in the future.

Shanggu Town... Huajia Village, Gouzi muttered silently in his heart.

Although the Crescent City plague and the food crisis have been resolved, the plague is still spreading throughout Lingyun Continent and even the entire ancient Yan Kingdom.

Even in the ancient capital of Yan, infected people were pulled out for isolation one by one, but the infection still swept through all the states and cities in the capital with the power of a prairie fire.

It can be said that for the past few months, there have been complaints and complaints everywhere, and corpses littering the fields. These are not the most terrible things. The most terrible thing is that the countries around the ancient Yan Kingdom that were already eyeing them eagerly are competing for more resources in order to survive. He tried again but launched a fierce attack.

Although successive disasters have severely damaged the vitality of all countries, if four countries bite a bone at the same time, the outcome can be imagined.

Even if the saints are furious today, they can't change the fact that they are retreating steadily. In the end, the border towns in various places were lost, and the enemy troops marched straight in as if there was no man's land.

There was no burning, killing and looting as they imagined, and they did not see the food animals they needed most at the moment. Even human figures were hard to see, only the stench of corpses and swarms of rats and insects.

There were ten rooms and ten empty rooms. Whether it was on the outskirts of the county or in remote villages, there were corpses all over the village. These corpses shocked the soldiers from all over the world who had placed their hopes on them, and they did not dare to approach them at all.

The plague... is a plague more severe than their country.
