Hard work

Chapter 239
Lan Hua'er was actually not very willing to let Zang Lang go to the back mountain.She always felt that Houshan was not a peaceful place.In the past, when Zang Lang went to the mountains, she thought it was just for food.She herself has been there before, and even became friends with those legendary and fierce bandits on the mountain.

Although she didn't think those on the mountain were kind, after all, they weren't those who would hurt people at will.

What the Red King and her subordinates love to do most is to hijack the merchants who came from the capital, make them hand over the goods in their hands, and then make them hand over the ransom for their lives.Because they will ask for ransom from outsiders, killing people is not very popular in the Red King.After all, if you kill one, you will get less money.

All Lan Hua'er came into contact with were bandits who didn't know whether they were reliable or not, so gradually she felt that as a family, she couldn't afford to buy a cow, and she probably couldn't even go up the mountain. There will be danger.

When she was young, she had been walking on the back mountain with dog eggs, looking for something to eat, and had never encountered any danger, so she also took it for granted that the back mountain was safe and nothing would happen.In the past, Zang Lang kept running up the mountain, and she didn't feel any uneasiness.

After all, where a little girl like her can go, Zang Lang will definitely not be in danger if she goes there.

But now a lot of ferocious beasts ran out from the deep mountains, and came to the village to drag people away to eat. Lan Huaer suddenly realized that this was in ancient times, it was in the village, and there were deep mountains and old forests next to it. It should be regarded as a virgin forest after entering. Not only are there various plants that she has never seen before, but there are also various animals that she has only seen in zoos before.

Zang Lang and the others had hunted wild boars before, and Zang Lang said that he had encountered blind bears, wolves and leopards in the deep mountains behind.It's just that the environment at home was not that bad before, and there was no need to fight those things desperately, so every time Zang Lang saw it, he just avoided it and didn't conflict with those beasts.

"The meat is not tasty either," Zang Lang said solemnly. "Wolf meat is tough. Bears...have never eaten..."

What he said made Lan Huaer a little dumbfounded, so she asked him if he had eaten wolf meat before.Unexpectedly, Zang Lang nodded.He said that when he was on a mission before, he couldn't find food in the mountains and forests, and when he encountered a wolf, he would directly get it and eat it.Grilled and eaten, the taste is not bad, but the meat is a bit hard.

Lan Hua'er remembered that when she was in the cottage on the mountain before, she also ate barbecue with those people, but because she didn't see what was roasted at all, she guessed that there should be roasted wolf meat. yes.

She couldn't help laughing and teasing Zang Lang, saying, "You have the word wolf in your name, so you can eat it so happily."

Zang Lang scratched his head and said, "It's not that I'm starving. If I don't eat wolves, I will starve to death. There is no reason why I can't eat anything. If there is something called rice, I will starve to death." what."

Lan Hua'er wondered where any parents would give such a weird name to their child.But after thinking about it, it's not right.She had read a novel before, and the protagonist was also a time-traveler.However, the protagonist is not the protagonist of a farming novel, he is very powerful, and there are many dead shadow guards and maids around him.The protagonist's hobby is to name his subordinates, and all of them are named after food.

Lan Hua'er used to read that novel in the middle of the night, and always felt more and more hungry.

As for bears, Lan Huaer only knows that bear paws are nourishing in modern times, and it is estimated that there should be related eating methods in the Dayin Dynasty.However, according to Zang Lang, Xiazi Xiong's charging ability is too powerful, and it is not easy to kill Xiazi Xiong now.

When he and Yan Dalang decided to go to the mountain, Lan Huaer really worried for a long time.But now that they have all made up their minds, Lan Hua'er no longer obstructs them.After all, she also knew that Zang Lang and Yan Alin had been observing silently for a long time. If they didn't think it was a good time to go up the mountain, they would never have chosen to go up the mountain.

"It's a good thing to be able to get rid of harm for the people in the village." Lan Hua'er told Zang Lang in a low voice while tidying his clothes, "Just don't force it. If you encounter something that feels wrong, you'd better avoid it first." .It’s not impossible to survive anyway. This time, just two people will go to the mountain, so don’t be too greedy.”

Zang Lang shook the machete in his hand and nodded silently.

This time because there were still many victims in the village, after a discussion, they finally decided that only Zang Lang and Yan Dalang would go to the mountain, and Lan Du would stay in the village so that he could look after his home.Gaihua wanted to go with her at first, but thinking about it, it's not good if there is no man in the Zhao family.Lan Du just kept it, after all, he didn't stay at home all the time.

Moreover, both Zang Lang and Yan Dalang are very good at fighting.If Changhua followed, maybe it would drag the two of them down.

It was impossible for Tie Sheng to follow.He has a twin daughter-in-law to look after, and he is just an ordinary farmer.

"It's nothing to worry about," Gaihua went to comfort Tiesheng, and it was also comforting herself, "They have something to do, so we have something to do. The land outside has been leveled, but the mountain on the hillside hasn't been leveled yet. Well, I don’t have enough firewood at home, so I need to add more. I don’t know if it will rain in the future.”

This year's rain is really special. After the rainstorm stopped, there were two intermittent drizzles.

Fortunately, the rain was not very heavy, but it still shocked the people in the village and the victims together, thinking that the flood would come back again.

And the people in the village are sorting out the road leading to the outside.

Many people have already finished their fields.Some people secretly sowed seeds in the fields, but most of them were dug out by wandering victims.Those who planted the seeds could only scold themselves secretly while stamping their feet.No one else dared to plant it, so why would he take such a risk.

There is no way to find out which victim did it.

There are so many disaster victims outside the village, and they often wander in the village, and no one can look at the fields without blinking all day long.No one dared to stay in the field all the time.Didn't that tell the victims clearly that they had sown seeds in the field?

Those victims have been blown by the wind and rain, and have not been cleaned for a long time. The mud accumulated on their faces and bodies. The people in the village can only roughly know the gender and age of the victims, but they really can't tell who is who. up.

So in the end, those farmers who have sown can only consider themselves unlucky.

A few seeds may not have been dug up right away, but no signs of sprouting have been seen.And looking at the current situation, once those seeds germinate, they will still be poached and eaten immediately.

Lan Huaer carefully prepared a lot of things for Zang Lang and Yan Dalang.

This time going up the mountain was different from the past.In the past, when they went up the mountain, the mountain was still full of vitality, even if nothing was prepared for them, they could still find food.Both Zang Lang and Yan Alin are used to living in the mountains and forests, so they will definitely not starve themselves there.

But now the back mountain is different from the past.Even the beasts in the mountains couldn't find food, let alone them.

So Lan Huaer prepared extra food, wine, and medicine for them.Those medicines were all secretly hidden by Lan Huaer, and they were specially used to deal with trauma.She thought that Zang Lang often went to the mountains, and she might not know when it would be used, so she kept some in the house, and now she took them all out.

She also stewed some bacon for them, carefully wrapped them in leaves, and tied them separately.He also rushed to sew a pair of leather gloves for Zang Lang overnight.He also told Zang Lang not to stay too long, and not to force himself on the mountain.I'm afraid that when they kill something, the smell of blood will attract other beasts.

If it wasn't for the lack of chocolates and Yunnan Baiyao in this year, Lan Huaer would have prepared some for those two.

Goudan watched Lan Huaer busy for a long time, couldn't help feeling a little jealous, pouted his mouth and muttered in a low voice, saying that he had never been treated so affectionately by sister when he went to school.

Lan Hua'er bit off the end of the thread and gave Goudan an angry look, "You go to the school to go to school, and you have elder brother with you. I'm so worried about you. What are you doing, A Lang? Why don't you just talk about it?" Lie?"

Goudan just muttered like this. Hearing what Lan Huaer said, he felt guilty first, so he smiled, "Sister, don't be angry, that's what I said. Don't I know He's going to do something dangerous, and he's doing good things for the people in the village. I just watched...hehe..."

Speaking of the latter, Goudan himself felt embarrassed.

Lan Hua'er nodded and didn't say anything. She continued to sew the gloves up with a bit of moonlight, and then said, "Yes. I've already told them. If something is found, it will be burned outside the village. No one will share the meat with the victims. It’s too obvious to drag things back to the village. If we hide what we eat at home, I don’t know what the outside will think, and I guess we can’t hide it. There are many Disaster victims. Brother, don’t feel unhappy when the time comes.”

Goudan shook his head, feeling that his elder sister seemed to regard him as a child, and couldn't help feeling a little unhappy, pouted, and said, "Sister, tell me this. I don't know the reason The disaster victims outside are also... Poor... Our family is not short of this kind of meat. Sigh... If the emperor knows, he should open a warehouse to help the disaster. I know, I know, sister, you don't need to tell me these things ah."

Lan Hua'er smiled, and reached out to pat his head, "Yes, my dog ​​has learned the sage books, but he is becoming more and more virtuous."
