The cannon fodder of fast wear, she chooses to farm

Chapter 255 The vicious female supporting role runs away and farms (5)

After Xu Yin made up her mind, she began to pack her luggage.

A stone and a half of millet were all milled into rice in the past two days, and the chaff was dried and dusted off and stuffed into two pillows.

Half of the sweet potatoes are dried in the sun, and half are eaten with rice these days.

Although the bedding is worn out, it is impossible not to bring one.

Regardless of whether it is hot or not, what if it rains or the temperature drops.

Xu Yin took out the quilts at home, and threw them away if they were too rotten. The barely usable quilts were patted out in the sun and then sewed on clean quilts, making two beds.

There are only a few pieces of clothes for a change of clothes, and it is only a burden to bring them all.

Take pots and pans that are relatively intact.If there are several gaps, even if someone breaks into the house, they probably won't bother to steal it.

In addition, she dismantled an old door panel for a bed, found some wood, and went to the foot of the mountain to cut down a tree and came back to make a hand-push splicing cart.

It took her a lot of time to make the wooden wheels according to the drawings produced by the system, and she tried it after it was done. The hard wheels rolled very lamely, but it was better than nothing.

Otherwise, with so much luggage and two babies, no matter how strong she is, it's not easy for her to carry it.

Although she has a lot of ready-made tires on hand, it is definitely not good if they are too eye-catching.

Fleeing famine and revealing wealth is equivalent to writing "I have more money, come and rob me" written on my face.

This reminded her of Yan Chao's life, which was also in a backward ancient plane. With Yan Kejin as the royal backer, she dared to drive a four-wheeled iron cart when she went out.

Thinking of "him", I feel a little lonely in my heart, I don't know if there is "him" in this small world.

……

It's been five days since everything was packed.

The water level in the river has obviously dropped a few inches, and the bottom of the river bed can be seen clearly. The fish and shrimp trapped in the shallow water, no matter whether they are alive or dead, have been fished out.

The fields became more and more dry and cracked, radiating like cracks.

The villagers lined up to fetch water from the river every day, and the chief of the village arranged for people to maintain order. A family could carry at most two buckets a day, otherwise the river would not be enough.

But two buckets of water, not to mention the food, drink and washing of the whole family, are poured into the rice fields, which is just a drop in the bucket.

What's more, there are also vegetable fields in front of and behind the house, which are in urgent need of irrigation.

It's not that the villagers who are close to the mountain did not think of going to the mountain pool to carry water.

Difficult mountain roads and hard work are nothing!As long as there is water!

However, after going there a few times, I found the footprints of the tiger near the water pool, so I dare not go again.

The water pool may have become the territory of the big bug.

Compared with lack of water, life is still more important.

For a time, people panic.

Since Xu Yin decided to flee the famine, she never went to the river to fetch water.

Some water was left at the bottom of the tank for the villagers who occasionally came to the house to inquire about the truth, and the usual drinking was basically the Lingxuzong mountain spring water from the system warehouse.

The mountain spring water containing spiritual energy has washed away many impurities from the bodies of the two cubs. We don't expect them to become stronger and stronger in an instant, but we try to avoid getting sick.

The water in the water tank was completely used up, and it was time to set off.

Xu Yin tied the luggage to the cart, and spread the rice bag in the center of the cart, and let the two children sit on the rice bag, so that their buttocks would not suffer a little.

"Sister-in-law, where are we going?"

"Let's find a place with water." Xu Yin patted the heads of the two children, "Don't worry, we'll be fine this year, and when the rains start to rain next year, we'll come back. By then, your elder brother should be back too." .”

When the two children heard the words, they nodded vigorously: "Wherever sister-in-law is going, we will go there."

Xu Yin pinched the little noses of the two of them: "I'm not afraid that sister-in-law will betray you!"

"Sister-in-law is so kind to us, so she's not willing to sell us." Erlang grimaced.

The third sister giggled.

Xu Yin sighed in her heart: silly boy!
Just as she was about to leave, Xu Yin suddenly thought, do you need a guide to go out these days?Otherwise, can I get out of Fucheng?
She patted her forehead and told the two children: "You guys wait at home, I'll go to Li Chang's house."

At this time, the men from each family saw that the water in the village was completely cut off, so they carried buckets to look for water outside the village, while the young men guarded the foot of the mountain to prevent wild animals with no water from rushing down the mountain and harming the crops. Suddenly they heard "buzzing buzzing" from the west. the sound of.

"It's not good! It's not good! The locusts are coming!"

"Plague of locusts! It's a plague of locusts!"

The villagers who were the first to discover it stumbled over, shouting heart-rendingly as they ran: "It's over, it's over! My land! The rations for my family of eleven!"

The villagers' faces were pale, and they ran home in a hurry. They held up butterfly nets and broken fishing nets to fight against the locusts in order to save the life-saving food in the fields.

But there are fewer people but more locusts.

Trillions of locusts swept across the sky.

"The sky is covered by migratory locusts, and the sun is colorless, and the wild old fields are weeping with blood."

The villagers stared blankly at the rice fields that had been devoured by locusts, regretting their mistakes.

A man's eyes were bloodshot, and he slapped himself hard.

Why don't you listen to Da Lang's wife, why don't you harvest the millet earlier!
What does it matter if the green millet does not weigh the scale!Anyway, it is my family's rations, save a little, and I can survive the famine year no matter what.

It's all right now, it's been eaten by locusts, and there's no harvest!
No harvest!
"Oh my god!"

Even the usually resolute man couldn't help crying.

Not to mention those women.

When Xu Yin saw this scene on the way, her heart was pulled hard.

In such a tragic situation, not only Lijia Village, but also the surrounding villages all suffered from the plague of locusts.

A woman wiped her tears and scolded Aunt Li: "It's all your fault! I wanted to harvest the rice that day, but you insisted that Dalang's wife was uneasy and kind, which made our family have no harvest. I will fight with you! "

How could Mrs. Li be beaten and scolded by her? Although she also regretted it, she couldn't hold back her stubbornness: "I forced you? I kicked you out? It's clear that you are vacillating, but blame me! Damn you, how dare you scratch me?" !"

"That's enough! Shut up!" the chief closed his eyes in despair.

It's his fault!He is not decisive enough!
He is guilty!

"The chief..."

"Let's go!" The head of the village waved his hand at them, "Drought and locust plagues, our village will not be the only one suffering, and this year's life will not be easy. If you have relatives in other places, you should go and seek refuge as soon as possible, before the people on the road are still there." There are too many, hurry up! If it continues, there will be more and more people, and the city gate may be closed, and you will not be able to go anywhere by then!"

When everyone heard this, they ignored the fights and quarrels, wiped away their tears, and went home silently to pack their bags.

Regardless of whether there are relatives in other places, let's leave here first.

As the head of the village said: locusts have been plagued for hundreds of miles around, and the water shortage is so serious, where can I go to find food and water?

There may be a way out if you escape.

There is no need for Luyin to flee famine caused by disasters.

Xu Yin ran home to buy time to leave the village early.

When people in all villages realize that they cannot stay in their hometown, the roads will be full of people fleeing famine.

She has experienced fleeing famine in the life of a peasant girl, with many people and troubles.
