Quick Travel: Farm Treasure Notes

Chapter 65 Sudden Disaster

The moonlight is faint.

Under the moon, rocks and houses collapsed.

The houses in Xiaochong Village are all made of wood and thatch, with muddy grass walls and are in disrepair.

The earthquake happened suddenly, causing chaos.

Some villagers were awake at the beginning of the earthquake. They woke up their families and fled, watching helplessly as their houses collapsed.

Some people were buried.

In the field, Shen Biyu hugged her two daughters tightly. Su Changhuai held Suisui with one hand and put his other hand on Xiao Qianxi's shoulder.Xiao Qian struck the ground with his broadsword, unable to fall.

The family looked helplessly at their small courtyard, half collapsed.

The kitchen, reception room, and Shen Biyu and Su Changhuai's rooms were in disrepair, but the newly built house in the backyard remained standing.

Half of the front yard also collapsed.

The latrine was still fine, Xiao Qianxi was relieved.

"Mommy, the ground is shaking." Su Yan opened her mouth in confusion. She had only heard her father talk about earthquakes, and this was her first experience.

Listening to the cries of the villagers and the barking of chickens and dogs, she felt a little sad.

"Mom, what should I do?"

Shen Biyu just wanted to hold her two daughters and asked Su Changhuai: "Mr. sir, what should I do?"

"Harvest the rice first."

The book records that there were earthquakes ten times and thunder and rain nine times.

He looked up at the sky. The dim light of the moon was tinged with watery red, and the flowing clouds reflected half of the red color.

"Quick, quick!"

The whole family takes action.

Xiao Qianxi was still whittling with a big knife, and Jiao Jiao and Jiao Jiao followed behind to tie the rice into bunches. Shen Biyu and his wife carried the rice buckets and beat them. After filling a bucket, they put it into a sack and then beat another bucket.

Soon the sacks were piled into a hill.

"Deng, Deng, Deng -" a thunderous voice came.

Something big and black jumped straight towards the Su family's rice field like an arrow.

"Moo-"

Su Suisui waddled to greet him, "Niu Niu! Niu Niu!"

The Su family raised their eyes in their busy schedule and saw a black "mountain" behind Suisui, who was holding two small green onions. The shadow of the "mountain" covered the little girl.

He is the boss of their family.

At this time, a small yellow thing came out from behind Daniel and also mooed.

It's their heifer.

The heifer has gained some weight. It used to look like a stick, but now it looks like a much thicker stick.

"The big cow and the little wife are here!"

The bull and the heifer hunched their hooves and slumped their backs.

It is said that cows understand human nature. Their cows are not only understanding human nature, but also very sensible.

"What a cow! From now on, I will find the freshest grass to cut for you to eat every day!"

After peeling the rice, Xiao Qianxi carried the sack onto the back of the cow.

Without a trolley or ropes to fix it, it couldn't transport much.But Daniel's back is like a board with a concave middle, and it can also hold a lot of ground.

The heifer's stick-shaped body also makes it great for hanging sacks.

So Xiao Qianxi drove the cattle back and forth twice to transport the rice.

Not tired, but very accomplished.

When they returned to the field, Aunt Shen and the others were picking up ears of rice and the rice that jumped out of the rice barrels.

Don’t give up even a grain of rice.

"Auntie, I picked up a bowl of porridge!" Su Jiaojiao shouted excitedly and decided to pick up a few more bowls of porridge.

Aunt Shen and Uncle Su smiled and said nothing, and kept moving their hands.

Even the youngest Suisui worked hard to pick up the rice and put it in his palm, but his palm was too small and he dropped it as he was saving it.

Xiao Qianxi was a little moved.

He took a step forward and picked up the rice ears that he had trampled under his feet.

This rice ear is relatively small, and many of the rice grains are shriveled. When peeled off, there is no rice, or even shriveled rice.This kind of rice is not delicious and is small, but in the eyes of Aunt Shen and Uncle Su, this kind of deflated rice is as precious as other rice.

He thought of the various kinds of rice he had eaten before, which were plump, fragrant and elastic, but he did not realize how precious rice was at that time.

In the eyes of people like him, rice is the most inconspicuous food.

Only when you raise seedlings, transplant rice seedlings, and harvest them yourself can you realize that every grain of rice is hard work.Something warm dripped into his palm, a big drop.

"Aba Aba!"

"Father, mother, and sister, the rain is coming!"

It's raining.

The rain in autumn is always hot.

The Su family members were still squatting to pick it up, "The rain is still light, so it won't be a problem."

"You bastard, please take Suisui back. She is still young and cannot be exposed to the rain."

Xiao Qianxi obeyed and left with Su Suisui in his arms.

The backyard door was broken open by a bull, and Xiao Qianxi placed Su Suisui under the eaves of the backyard. Heavy rain poured down, and the dark sky was torn into huge holes by thunder and lightning.

My father, mother, sister, and second sister ran back in the rain, and they were all soaked in the rain.

"Where is your bastard brother Sui Sui?"

Su Suisui sucked her golden finger and pointed to the latrine.

Su Changhuai pulled out Su Suisui's sucking finger, "Don't eat your hands, they're dirty."

Then he put on his bamboo hat and raincoat and rushed into the heavy rain.

Heavy rain after an earthquake can cause landslides and mudslides.

His house is against a slope, so I have to go and take a look.

This evening, the family sat under the eaves all night.

Shen Biyu, Su Changhuai and his wife did not dare to sleep, so the children slept on their legs for several hours.

From dark to dawn, the rain stopped and they heard the cries of the villagers.

Su Changhuai, Shen Biyu and his wife looked tired and quietly got up to tidy up the kitchen.

One hole in the stove collapsed, but there is still another hole that can be used.

Shen Biyu pulled out the rice and went to the well to wash it.

Su Changbai moved dry firewood and made a fire.

The children woke up to the smell of porridge.

Set the dining table in the yard and have breakfast.

A stack of dried bracken and a plate of fried chicken and duck eggs.

The egg basket was smashed, and seven or eight eggs were broken. So I chopped up a few green onions, mixed them with the eggs, and stir-fried them into a plate of vegetables and served with porridge.

After a long time, smoke began to float in the village.

Everyone suffered heavy losses in this earthquake.

Shen Biyu and Su Changhuai squatted by the well washing dishes, but stopped talking.

The collapsed house has to be rebuilt, and the rebuilding requires wood. The wood is in the mountains, and there are bandits in the mountains.

She can fight with the bastard, and she is not afraid of bandits, but she is afraid of bandits harming her husband-in-law and children.

Therefore, she wanted to go into the mountains alone and leave the bastard behind to protect everyone.

If you tell me, your husband will definitely not agree.

So she pursed her lips and decided not to say anything.

Find an opportunity to sneak away.

Someone knocked on the door.

The courtyard wall fell down half a circle, and you could come in through that half circle, but the man knocked on the door politely.

Su Changhuai wiped his hands and opened the door.

She is the village chief and his wife.

The village chief's wife smiled at him, her face turning into a kind chrysanthemum, and at the same time she hit the village chief's leg with a walking stick.

The village chief knelt down.

"This is impossible!" Su Changhuai quickly helped him.

"Aba, ba, ba, aba!" the village elder said while looking at Xiao Qianqi, who was sharpening a big knife by the well.

Xiao Qianxi felt bad.

"What my mother means is that it is a natural disaster and a man-made disaster. Xiaochong Village has suffered. Fortunately, there are bosses. I heard that your family finished harvesting rice last night, but everyone still confiscated it. The house collapsed again, and the parents and children died. He is dead and injured, and he really has no time to guard the village."

"Your bastard is a young hero. Can you please help him guard the village for three days, boss?"

Su Changhuai did not dare to agree rashly and looked at Xiao Qianqi who was sharpening his knife.

Xiao Qianqi turned his back and sharpened his sword fiercely.
