No matter if you are a human or an immortal, you can still farm for me after traveling through time!
Chapter 118 Return to the county! Emergency situation! !
The winter snow melts again, and everything revives, announcing to people who have been resting for two months that they are about to start a busy life.
The grass grows and the orioles fly, and the previously depressed mountain forests and river wetlands become full of life overnight, with various wild birds landing on the shallow beaches to feed. The animals in the mountains and forests also wake up from hibernation. It is the most dangerous to enter the mountains at this time. No one dares to enter the mountains when the animals are the hungriest. Everyone begins to prepare for the annual spring plowing.
After the spring break, students still have a one-month field break, and school does not start until March. They have to stay in the academy for eight months of the year until the one-month ribbon break comes in autumn.
This year, no one in the family is going to the barracks, so the labor force is naturally sufficient, not to mention a few cousins taking the initiative to help. Li Erlang really does not have to go to the fields to pull the plow, he only needs to follow the iron plow to sow, and even the work of covering the soil is left to Li Erlang Silang and Li Yu, everyone refused to ask Li Erlang to work hard, but took good care of the flesh on their bodies.
One time while taking a bath, Li Silang ran in and shouted to rub his second brother's back. He was caught off guard and saw the scars behind Li Erlang. Before Li Erlang could react, the child's eyes turned red and he ran out in surprise: "Ah Mother! Grandma!! The second brother has a lot of wounds on his back!! The wounds are still bleeding!!"
Training in the barracks will inevitably involve bumps and bumps. Everyone expected that Li Erlang would be injured to some extent, but they did not expect that the injuries would be so serious. There were layers of new and old injuries, and the injuries on the lower back were even more unbearable. Looking directly, there is a thick layer of blood scab.
Li Sanlang, who was the first to rush into the shower room, was so shocked that his lips trembled uncontrollably: "Brother, just tell me! What on earth are you and Brother Ji doing! Why do you force yourself to go to the barracks!!"
"Second brother, I'm not a child anymore! Please stop treating me like a child!"
Ji Qingyue was alarmed by Li Silang, came out of the painting, and walked into Li Erlang's room with Li Aniang and others.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Erlang sitting in the bathtub, hurriedly comforting his crying brother.
Suddenly so many people came in, Li Erlang quickly grabbed a change of clothes: "Why... why are you all here!"
The moment he turned around, Ji Qingyue saw the mottled scars on Li Erlang's back.
"Aniang! Get out quickly!"
A period of chaos ensued, and Li Silang, who had done bad things with good intentions, was inevitably beaten up by his two brothers.
So shameful.
Ji Qingyue stood aside with his hands folded, watching the three brothers playing around.
Li Sanlang was still in a bad mood. After beating his brother, he sat on the kang with a lot of thoughts and thoughts.
Li Erlang's back had been smeared with medicine, and the kang was burning in the room, so he didn't feel cold even though he was wearing a thin undershirt. He pinched the child's face: "Silang, you and Yulang go to the main room to stay for a while."
Li Silang covered his face, turned around and left angrily: "I obviously feel sorry for you, second brother, but you, second brother, don't know what is good or bad, and treat me like this! Humph!"
Ji Qingyue shook his head funny and blinked in confusion when Li Erlang closed the door.
Li Erlang pointed to his younger brother sitting on the kang and explained in a low voice: "Sanlang is suspicious and wants me to explain."
Li Sanlang, who has both ears and eyesight, rarely became angry because of his embarrassment: "Second brother!"
Since Li Sanlang discovered something on his own and wanted to know the inside story, Ji Qingyue said it didn't matter and just said it.
This is Li Erlang's family matter. Before he has the ability to change the outcome, the more people know about it, the more people will panic. Therefore, Li Erlang doesn't want to make it public because he is afraid of causing panic in his family.
Sure enough, the two brothers talked calmly about what happened in Guangde's second year, and Li Sanlang felt cold all over. "Your lady's ending has changed. Doesn't it mean that the gentleman will no longer be so radical?"
Li Erlang shook his head. As expected, his brother still thought too simply. "The new county magistrate immediately promulgated a new tax law after taking office. The officials definitely want more than that. Yue Lang told me that the new tax will treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and chaos is inevitable."
Ji Qingyue did not participate in the conversation between the two brothers. He just sat quietly next to Li Erlang. When facing Li Sanlang's doubtful eyes, he nodded and motioned for them to continue.
"Since the ending of that noble lady can be changed, it means that our ending can also be changed!" Li Sanlang's eyes were burning and he secretly made up his mind.
"Actually, I thought about raising some official matters with that lady from your noble family, but after thinking about it again, I still felt it was rash. After all, we talk lightly, and the official family is working openly and the enemy is secretly..." Li Erlang refused to say any more. , but Li Sanlang already knew what he meant.
No one knows whether the high-ranking Lord Zuo Pushe participated in the assassination that year.
Otherwise, how come two years have passed and nothing has been found.
The night was deep, and the two months of Maodong passed by in a flash. As expected, Li Erlang regained some of his flesh, the sunken cheeks swelled again, and the skin no longer looked like it was tightly attached to the bones. The heroic Li Erlang was again came back!
Xu Qing is pregnant and can only raise her baby at home. Now it has been four or five months and she can finally move around freely. Last year she was busy and tired, but this year she was very idle. She didn't need her help in the field work. When she wanted to work, she would cook and weave silk with Li Jinniang. When she was tired, she would lie down and rest without anyone to restrain her.
Ji Qingyue started farming in an orderly manner according to his own plan and rhythm. The vegetable fields, rice fields and wheat fields had to be sorted out bit by bit. For cotton, he had to wait until the weather got hotter before sowing, otherwise it would affect the quality of the cotton produced. .
When February was about to end, Ji Qingyue promptly asked about returning to the county, because the delivery date agreed with Tai'an Building was coming soon.
Regarding this separation, Li Erlang did not "get angry", but took the initiative to take Ji Qingyue back to the county.
Li Yu will naturally follow Ji Qingyue back to the county. This is the first time he has lived a complete and lively New Year. Although he does not know the specific birthday, he knows that after a certain day this year, he will be nine years old. Big kid.
When he parted with Li Silang, Li Yu still cried profusely. Sitting on the donkey cart, his tears couldn't stop and kept flowing.
Ji Qingyue almost forgot that Li Yu could cry, and didn't know where he got so many tears.
Except for things that needed to be seen clearly, Ji Qingyue put other miscellaneous things into the painting. Of course, the two thin dogs also followed them in the donkey cart.
Li Aweng trained them very well. They would not move if they were not allowed to move, and they would not shout if they were not allowed to shout. Ji Qingyue and Li Erlang each held one in their arms and sat firmly on the donkey cart.
The two black dogs gradually became slender, and their cute appearance gradually faded away as they grew up, never to return. They have gradually shown the majesty and ferocity of adults. Ordinary people dare not approach them, let alone He said he took the initiative to pet these two dogs.
They returned to the county smoothly. Ji Qingyue looked at the bustling people and felt as if he was in another world.
In the past two months, he had been almost cut off from news from the county. For one month, he couldn't get any news at all. Now that he returned to Shandan again, Ji Qingyue suddenly found that there was a long queue of caravans at the gate of the city. Stretching far into the distance.
Caravans crowded all the city gates, blocking the city gates with water, waiting to pass the inspection and enter Shandan.
As the number of people increased, so did the voices of dissatisfaction. Not only the caravans, but also the soldiers guarding the city complained because of the heavy workload and lack of manpower.
They had to get off the bus outside the city gate, carry large and small bags and walk with their dogs to check the faster pedestrian entrance into the city.
"There seem to be many more Hu merchants this year than before." Li Erlang knew where the clues were at a glance. There were already so many Hu merchants in the city, and there were so many queuing outside the city. This scene was almost catching up. During the war, troops came to the city.
Hu businessmen poured into the county from all directions, which seemed to be the first time in so many years.
After two months, they returned to this small and inconvenient house again. The three of them opened the door excitedly, but before they even entered, they were shocked by the sight in front of them.
The house was in a mess, and a layer of black stuff was splashed on the corridor leading from the house door to the atrium, which seemed to be the traces left by blood coagulation.
Ji Qingyue couldn't believe his eyes.
Li Erlang alertly stopped Ji Qingyue and Li Yu from outside the door, while he went in with two dogs to check.
Li Yu's head was dazed and froze in place.
Ji Qingyue was attracted by the copper lock hanging on the door. He took a closer look and saw that there were small marks in the hole of the door lock. It seemed that the thief entered the house after picking the lock.
As soon as Li Erlang entered the house, he first checked the shop room where Li Sanlang usually lived. The canopy bed, desk and bookcase inside were empty. Fortunately, Li Sanlang had brought everything home a year ago.
A cloud of ashes was left on the floor. The bed tent originally hung on the canopy bed was torn off and thrown on the ground as a ignition material. After burning to ashes, it turned into a black lump stuck to the ground.
Someone is warming up here.
The room was filled with a burning smell. The black dogs sniffed around the room, seeming to smell the scent of strangers, and their tails kept wagging.
Then he walked into the middle courtyard and saw that the stove and the ground in the courtyard were filled with the unknown black-red liquid. Li Erlang couldn't help but feel a burst of anger in his heart, which he couldn't suppress no matter how hard he suppressed it.
In the bedroom, the water tank was cracked, and the cracks extended to the bottom of the tank. The ice melted and turned into water, which flowed out of the cracks and wet the floor. Only the bowls of water at the bottom of the tank were left in the tank.
The furniture in the room was very simple, only a canopy bed for sleeping, a round table for eating and matching round stools. The suitcase was open and empty inside. It was not stolen, but there was nothing in it.
The bedroom was not spared either.
After Li Erlang quickly checked the entire house, he heard Ji Qingyue talking to someone outside the door. When he went out to take a look, he found that it was the neighbors. They were wondering why Ji Qingyue was standing outside the door and not going in.
"What? The house was robbed?!"
Li Erlang did not let anyone else in, but locked the door again. He asked Ji Qingyue and Li Yu to wait here while he went to the county government to report the crime.
Ji Qingyue's home was robbed, and someone seemed to know the inside story.
"Could it be that time?" The aunt next door thought about it again and again, then turned to exchange opinions with others, and finally said to Ji Qingyue with certainty: "The Chinese New Year is approaching when thieves are rampant. Mr. Hong has informed in advance People in the county should pay attention to preventing theft, Yue Lang, you should not be at home at that time."
The more Ji Qing thought about it, he realized that a few years ago, there were indeed guards who came from house to house to provide food. At that time, he just couldn't get out, and he could still hear the noise outside.
"You had already gone back. One night I was suddenly awakened by a crisp knocking sound. At that time, I was confused and could not hear the exact direction of the sound. I just felt that it was not far away. Now it seems that the sound is probably coming from Yue Lang. It’s passed down in your family.”
The more Ji Qing wanted to ask more clearly: "About what time of night was it? Please think carefully, aunt, what was the sound you heard?"
The aunt next door thought for a while: "It must have been the third watch at that time. The 'bang' sound seemed to be the sound of broken tiles. Yes, it was almost the third watch. The sound was the third watch after that. Bangzi.”
Having a rough time point is better than having nothing at all.
After a while, Li Erlang came back with two policemen. The policemen seemed to be accustomed to handling theft cases, and they checked the scene leisurely.
I thought it was an ordinary theft, but I didn't expect the scene to be so terrifying! !
When the officers entered, they were immediately frightened by the black and red marks all over the room, and their faces became serious: "Did you offend someone? No one else was in such a situation when they were robbed!"
Li Erlang crossed his arms and crossed his chest, thinking solemnly: "We don't have a clue yet, so please ask Mr. Chai to check carefully."
"What do you two do?" One officer inspected the scene and another officer asked for clues.
Ji Qingyue told the truth: "I am a vendor who supplies Tai'an Building every month, and he is a farmer in Shangli Village."
Guard: "Supply? What kind of goods are you supplying?" Could it be that other suppliers are dissatisfied and deliberately retaliate?
"Fresh vegetables."
"Okay, we will go to Tai'an Building later to inquire and verify." Then the guards asked the surrounding residents. Except for the crisp sound near the middle of the night, they heard no other unusual sounds. .
There is no doubt that the source of the crisp sound was the bursting of the water tank in the room, and the black-red solidified liquid was the blood of certain animals.
Li Erlang stood outside the bedroom door, thinking heavily.
Even if these people spilled blood, why would they break a water tank in a quiet night? Aren't you afraid of being heard?
Then, he walked into the room and came to the cracked water tank. There was a gap in the mouth of the tank. The crack almost reached the bottom from the gap. As the temperature reached above zero, the water in the water tank slowly flowed out from the low point of the crack. There is only a little water left at the bottom of the tank.
Then, he bent down and reached out to the bottom of the water tank and touched it.
really……
Ji Qingyue noticed Li Erlang's movements and came over to ask, "What's wrong?"
Then he saw Li Erlang take out a clay doll as big as a child's palm from the water tank.
Because it was a cloudy day, the sky was relatively dark, the room was also dim, and the bottom of the water tank was difficult to see clearly. Therefore, during the first inspection, neither Li Erlang nor the guard could find anything in the tank.
The officers also came over and asked, "What is this?"
The clay doll is unfired, and it looks like he grabbed a handful of the soil used by Ji Qingyue to grow cotton and randomly molded it into a human shape.
Now the clay doll has been half melted when it was taken out of the water. Only its head and body can be seen, and its limbs have melted into the water.
Li Erlang's breathing became more and more urgent, and his eyes were hot with anger.
He saw a wooden thorn piercing the heart of the clay doll.
If it was him, Li Erlang, who was provoking and threatening, he wouldn't be so angry, but now it's Ji Qingyue who is being threatened, and he is simply furious!
What should I do?
Li Erlang turned to look at Ji Qingyue, his eyes full of rage, suppressing his rage and waiting for Ji Qingyue to make a decision.
Ji Qingyue patted the angry Li Erlang and comforted him: "It's okay. I want to discuss cooperation matters with Mr. Hong during this period. It's convenient to live in the county. Zhuangzi outside the city happens to be vacant. I can live there for a while." Time, by the way, take this opportunity to change your house."
Li Erlang knew he couldn't persuade Ji Qingyue: "Okay, I'll go back after you find a new house."
"it is good."
The officer took down various clues and left. Ji Qingyue couldn't hold on anymore, locked the house and went to Zhuangzi outside the city.
Zhuangzi was a little far away, so Ji Qingyue asked Li Erlang to rent a better donkey cart. During this period, they would rely on this cart to travel back and forth, and they didn't know when they would find a new house.
The donkey cart is no longer a cart, but a lightweight carriage. This kind of carriage is small and lightweight, so the donkey can pull it without difficulty. However, the disadvantage is that it is easy to shake and may cause dizziness after sitting for a long time.
As soon as he left the city, Ji Qingyue returned to the painting.
As soon as Li Erlang drove the donkey cart to the front of Zhuangzi, three tenant farmers working in the fields came over and said, "Li Langjun is fine, but his boss is here?"
Li Erlang jumped out of the car: "Yue Lang will arrive tomorrow. Yu Lang and I came first. Don't worry. If Yue Lang wants to find you, I will get back to you and send a message."
The tenants were busy preparing the land more carefully before sowing, but they were also thinking about Ji Qingyue's batch of seeds, fearing that Ji Qingyue would not show up. "The three of us have plowed the farmland twice. When my boss arrives, we will ask Xiao Lang to inform us and see what the boss's next arrangements are."
Walking into the spacious village, the snow inside has melted and turned into wet water.
The house has not been occupied for a long time, and no one has cleaned it. The ground has been covered with a layer of sand, and the cold-resistant and drought-resistant green plants planted in the courtyard are sprouting green buds.
Li Erlang loosened the chains around the dogs' necks, and the dogs immediately started running wildly.
