From the red building to penetrate the heavens

Chapter 43 Another World 2: Lingqiao Town
When dealing with bad things with Zhan Daliang, Jia She would no longer cover up. From time to time, he would pick up stones and throw them at trees. When the birds were frightened, Jia She would shoot them with another arrow.

It's a pity that this place was affected by drought. Jia She struck twenty or thirty trees along the way, and only three or two birds were frightened and flew out.

Even so, Zhan Daliang was still very happy. On the one hand, he was happy for the harvest, and on the other hand, he was happy for his only son's achievements and abilities. He couldn't help but be grateful to his son's mentor for his efforts in educating his son into a talented person. .

The father and son walked further in for more than an hour, but still found no traces of animal activity and did not look for any water sources. They had no choice but to give up and walk away.

During this period, it was inevitable that others would find something wrong, so Zhan Daliang used a sickle to make up for the two girls a few more times.

Gao Erya and others were very happy when they saw the two birds in Zhan Daliang's hand. Li Meihua even smiled and said: "The warehouse is full, mother, quickly take out the salt and rub it on."

When Zhan Manliang and the other four little ones heard this, their little faces drooped immediately. Zhan Daya cleverly grabbed Li Meihua's pants and coaxed: "Hey, the weather is so hot. If you don't need a lot of salt, the little bird will be very good." It’s going to stink soon.”

Zhan Manfu hurriedly followed, "Yes, milk, it's not cost-effective. Why not just eat it. Only when you are full can you have the strength to go on the road."

Although Zhan Erya is just over three years old, because Lao Zhan's family's preference for boys over girls is not too serious, and she is the youngest among the grandchildren, everyone gives in to her. She is usually the most clever and clever person. , now seeing that my brothers and sisters had this reaction, and it was about eating meat, my little brain turned and threw myself on Jia She's lap, "Brother, eat meat, okay?"

Because Jia She got a lot of ready-made food last night, even if he runs a small stove every day, it can last for three to five years, and he doesn't really believe in the Zhan family's craftsmanship. Originally, it didn't matter whether they could get meat to eat, but Zhan Erya The little girl acted coquettishly, which made Jia She couldn't help but think of the Spring Festival, and the little girls who had not ended well in the previous life, and his heart softened.

He really did a lot of wrong things in his previous life. After his grandmother passed away and his wife and eldest son also left him, he was so frustrated that he really didn't raise his children properly, which made them end up like this. That's how it ends.

Especially after studying in China, a different world, and receiving red education, this understanding is particularly clear and profound.

Now, Jia She just wants to hide in these small worlds and practice. When he learns the skills and returns to the original world, he will protect his children's health and pass on his grandfather's life-long efforts.

Jia She reached out and touched Zhan Erya's little head, looked at Li Meihua and said with a smile: "Nai, Da Yamanfu is right. The weather is hot, so let's not waste the salt to cure the meat."

When Li Meihua heard this, she glared at Jia She fiercely, "Humph, I only know how to pamper my younger brothers and sisters, but I don't know how to feel sorry for my old lady. Okay, since you caught these two birds, just kill them." One, but the other one has to be marinated."

Jia She couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, and coaxed in a gentle voice: "Nai, what are you talking about? When did I stop feeling sorry for you? In this way, I make the decision, and today this little bird's legs belong to you and me."

Li Meihua waved her hands quickly, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Everyone in the Zhan family couldn't help laughing when they saw Li Meihua's embarrassed appearance. Manfu, Da Ya, Erya and the three little ones all cleverly came to Li Meihua to tease and tease her.

In the evening, at the insistence of the three brothers Jia She and Zhan Daliang, the two bird legs were given to Li Meihua and Lao Zhan. The remaining meat was divided up with a small chopstick each, and even the bones were eaten by the three little brothers. It's clean.

Near noon the next day, the group finally arrived at the neighboring town of Lingqiao Town.Since we haven't found water for more than two days, everyone is now more thirsty for water than for rice.

Fortunately, Qianxi Village was the first wave of people to flee the famine; the chaos in Lingqiao Town was not serious at the moment, and there was no decree prohibiting the entry and exit of refugees, so everyone could still go in to buy rice, food and water.

However, there are more than 230 people in this group of refugees in Qianxi Village, which is quite a large number. After discussions between the clan leader and several elders, it was finally decided that each family would send a strong laborer to go to the city in batches to purchase supplies and find out information.

The person who left Lao Zhan's family was Zhan Dazhu, a lively person. At Jia She's strong request, the patriarch considered the news that Jia She brought back two days ago and thought that Jia She was a smart man who could handle things, so he gave his approval. .

After paying two cents for the city fee, Jia She looked at Zhan Dazhu who was pushing the trolley and said, "Uncle, I want to go to the home of a classmate I met to inquire about something, why don't we just let it go?"

Zhan Dazhu looked at Jia She's thin and frail appearance, and said angrily: "Okay. But the world is in chaos now, so be careful. If it doesn't work, let's not force it. I should have brought the sickle in so that you can take it." Defend yourself."

Jia She shook his head and laughed, and reminded: "Uncle, have you forgotten that I have martial arts skills?"

Zhan Dazhu was startled, raised his hand and punched Jia She, and said with a smile: "Hey, it's true, you are so good at pretending that I didn't pay attention to think about it and couldn't remember it at all."

"Okay, stop talking, go ahead, I have to buy water quickly."

Jia She took out a small silver coin from the bag that Cheng Haoran had prepared and stuffed it into Zhan Dazhu's hand. "This is the money I got from secretly copying books for bookstores. Brother-in-law, please use it to buy things."

Zhan Dazhu didn't see the real thing, but after hearing what Jia She said, he quickly held it tightly, looked around, and cursed in a low voice: "What's the matter with you kid? How can you take money out here? Are you afraid that others won't snatch it?" ?”

Saying that, Zhan Dazhu hammered Jia She's shoulder with the hand holding the small silver hammer for a while, and said: "Okay, okay, go quickly, I will take care of it."

After separating from Zhan Dazhu, Jia She walked towards the north city of Dongcheng where officials and squires lived.

Escape from famine consumes rice, food and water, but it also consumes more money.

Although he had asked Cheng Haoran to prepare some gold and silver coins for rewards earlier, and also obtained some old gadgets from Ye Hehua, the money has not come out. An old Taoist priest living in seclusion in the mountains should not be like this. Rich.

After thinking about it, Jia She wanted to exchange the prescriptions he memorized in China for some money, food and supplies.But I just don’t know if the rice shop restaurants in this town are also closed.

The further they walked in, the gloomier Jia She's face became. If the situation was as bad as previously guessed, most of the rice shops and restaurants in Beicheng were closed, and there were no people selling food on both sides of the street.

However, looking at the expressions of passers-by, they were not restless except for the sad look. They seemed to be desperate and furious to overthrow the county government and smash the wealthy households. Jia She speculated that this town should have a fixed time for opening warehouses to sell grain. Location, otherwise the hungry and red-eyed people would be so peaceful.
