Drive a RV and go farming in ancient times.

Xu Huaiyi's words broke Xu Maoyuan's remaining luck. He smiled bitterly, "My uncle is short-sighted and can't see as clearly as you..."

Hearing this, Dr. Jiao, who had never interrupted, joked, "At this age, how can we not see as clearly as young people? It's just that the older people live, the less courageous they are, unlike their young people. Don’t be afraid of anything. Dare to think and dare to do. We just want stability."

Xu Maoyuan was ridiculed by the teasing old face, but he was also open-minded and was not annoyed. Instead, he followed these words and said with emotion, "Yeah, when you get old, you don't dare to mess around."

"So, we have to give these young people a chance to contribute."

"you're right……"

Xu Huaiyi hurriedly showed humility and politeness to give Xu Maoyuan face.

Village Chief Xu also made a decision at this time, "What Huaiyi said makes sense. Even if we have a sharp tongue, I'm afraid no one will listen and believe us. We just think that we are applying powder to our own faces. After all, we Now we are also people from Hutian Village. We will be prosperous and suffer losses. No one will believe it if we tell it. But if we risk our lives, the results will be different immediately. By then, as long as we are all healthy and free from illness and disaster. , you don’t need to say anything to shut their mouths.”

After talking about it, he was still a little excited.

Xu Huaiyi smiled and said, "Uncle Village Chief, don't worry. There is no risk to your life, because there is no danger. There is no curse here, and there are no ominous people. There are just some poor people who were lucky enough to survive the disaster." , just like us refugees in Qingzhou, some couldn't make it through and died, and some survived. For example, like us, can we still become unlucky people, who will get bad luck from whom? On the contrary, we have great luck, It’s only when you get lucky.”

The last two sentences he said were categorical and had a brainwashing effect.

After Village Chief Xu was stunned, he clapped his thighs excitedly and said, "Yes, yes, Huaiyi is right, we just have great luck. Master Liao and the others met us before and avoided the bandits' money trap. I also avoided those evil officials who caused harm, what is this if not a blessing?"

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and his eyebrows and beard were about to fly.

Doctor Jiao looked amused and secretly exchanged glances with Xu Huaiyi. Then from a professional perspective, he helped him and Xu Maoyuan consolidate this impression, "I walked around the village today and didn't see anything dirty. Or things that can make people sick, even the trees and weeds on the roadside are growing well. The curse is completely nonsense. As for the plague five years ago, although I did not witness it with my own eyes, I heard the symptoms described by the people. , but it is not like the plague. Those who died in the so-called plague seemed to have eaten something poisonous..."

"what?"

"poisonous?"

Village Chief Xu and Xu Maoyuan were both horrified. His suspicious remarks were more terrifying than hearing about the plague.

Doctor Jiao, "..."

Is he looking for the wrong way?

Xu Huaiyi twitched the corner of his mouth. This was almost self-defeating. He quickly explained, "Uncle, village chief, please don't get distracted. What Dr. Jiao meant was not that all the twenty-nine families were poisoned to death. No, they died." There weren’t too many people who died, but those who survived moved away one after another, perhaps out of fear of injuring other people in the village, or because they had other plans.”

"Really?" Village Chief Xu turned to Doctor Jiao in shock, "Isn't there something poisonous in this village?"

Doctor Jiao shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "I blame me for not making it clear. I suspect that someone in the village got involved in some wrongdoing outside and was poisoned outside. He died of the poison after returning to the village. There is nothing like that in the village." It has nothing to do with it, because the symptoms are similar to smallpox, it was mistaken for a plague and the village was sealed off. But if it is really a plague, but other villages have not been affected, the people in Hutian Village can't be the only ones who are unlucky, right?"

Xu Maoyuan opened his mouth, isn't it just that Hutian Village is unlucky? The reason why there are all these ominous rumors outside comes from this. Other villages are fine, but if something happens to this village, it is not cursed. ?

What he didn't say, Village Chief Xu said it for him.

Doctor Jiao said meaningfully, "It's not a natural disaster, it's a man-made disaster. In this capital city, under the prosperity, there are so many filthiness. Only you can't imagine it, but they can't do it."

Village Chief Xu shuddered, "Then, will that affect us?"

Xu Huaiyi took over, "No, we are the ones who came later, and the past rights and wrongs have nothing to do with us. Besides, there is really something going on. It was settled five years ago. Everyone is dead. Who else can we settle the account with?"

"Didn't you say someone moved away?"

"Ah, someone moved away. We don't know where they moved to. Even if they were hunted down, they wouldn't come to interrogate us."

Although this statement is a bit rogue, there is nothing wrong with it. Village Chief Xu breathed a sigh of relief, "It makes sense, but we can forget about it if we know about these things. We can't mention them to the outside world in the future."

Xu Huaiyi nodded cooperatively, "Of course, let's just pretend we don't know anything and just get along with the people in this village normally. Don't pry around."

"Yes, yes, I will give instructions to the villagers later..."

After getting rid of the rumors of the curse, although it was involved in right and wrong, he was no longer so scared. Village Chief Xu calmed down and returned to the topic, "Huaiyi, the trick you just mentioned is feasible. As you said, the facts are better than the truth." Eloquent, but this time period is probably a bit long, three to five days, and there will definitely not be any effect..."

"So, we have to invite monks to recite sutras for salvation. A two-pronged approach will make it more convincing."

Many people in this era believed in Buddhism, and those great monks seemed to have opened their mouths. People believed whatever they said, and even worshiped some eminent monks as if they were gods.

One word from them is worth a thousand words.

When Village Chief Xu heard this, he felt more at ease.

Xu Maoyuan couldn't wait to ask, "Well, Huaiyi, when are we going to invite the eminent monks in the temple to read scriptures for salvation?"

Xu Huaiyi thought for a moment and said, "Let's do it tomorrow."

A smile appeared on Xu Maoyuan's face. He still trusted the eminent monk more than the facts, "Good tomorrow, good tomorrow. Let Huaixiao accompany you then..."

Xu Huaiyi hurriedly refused, "No, uncle, I will go with my wife and children tomorrow. Huanxi made some velvet flowers a few days ago and wants to sell them in the city. I have almost spent all the money I had on buying a house and land... …”

Speaking of this, Xu Maoyuan disagreed and said, "Although buying a house and land is a right thing, you can't be too lavish. You have to keep some in your pocket, otherwise how will you live?"

Xu Huaiyi said in a good temper, "Yes, what you taught me is, I will definitely change it in the future."

Village Chief Xu asked worriedly, "Then you said you would open a tofu shop before?"

I don’t have any money left, so what else can I do?

Xu Huaiyi said carelessly, "Don't delay, haven't we bought all the land? Money is tight in the early stage, so we will build it with adobe first, and we will make money later. As for the stone mill, basins, barrels, etc., they don't cost much money. We will sell them tomorrow." If you have velvet flowers, you should have enough."

Village Chief Xu was dubious, could the velvet flower be worth so much money?
