Happiness System
Chapter 381 Jin's Escape 43
There was thunder and lightning in the morning, and heavy rain was pouring down. Everyone stayed in their tents and didn't dare to go out, except Meng Yuxi and his wife, who went in the opposite direction.
The two men were fully armed and took advantage of the wind, rain and fog to sneak out of the camp.
Fortunately, Wen Yujin was very stable, otherwise Meng Yuxi would have been blown to the ground by the strong wind.
"Brother Jin!"
Seeing this magical scene, Meng Yuxi couldn't help but get excited.
In the Stone Kingdom, she planted growth-promoting plants, but no matter how hard she tried, they were half dead. But when she promoted growth-promoting trees, they grew rapidly as if they had eaten a catalyst!
Originally, he was worried that his supernatural power would be blocked and only ten trees would be born. He was also worried that even if his supernatural power was exhausted, the standard for shipbuilding would not be met. Unexpectedly, these trees were very generous and grew to the size of more than fifty years old in an instant.
And she only consumed less than one twentieth of her supernatural power!
This means that she can grow more than 200 trees into timber at one time!
More than two hundred trees are not enough to build a big ship, but they can solve many problems.
"Is it because of the rain? Or???"
With some guesses in mind, Meng Yuxi took out some seeds to conduct experiments, first the vegetables, then the sweet potatoes and potatoes, then the corn, and finally the orange trees and tangerine trees.
"So it's true! Water gives birth to wood, that's how it is..."
"Brother Jin, I leave it to you!"
Meng Yuxi put out a pile of baskets, and then asked Wen Yujin to harvest the things she had just helped to produce, and she continued to plant trees.
She thought that she was probably just a tool to help everyone go to the New World!
There was no thunder at this moment, but she was not afraid. She hid under a tree to shelter from the wind and rain and then gave birth one by one along the roots of the tree.
From time to time, she would pay attention to Wen Yujin, put the fruits and vegetables he picked into the space, and then stimulate the growth of two fruit trees for him to pick.
Wen Yujin looked at his wife helplessly. In fact, he also wanted to be lazy!
In the meantime, Meng Yuxi replenished her energy and gave birth to nearly five hundred trees. The two did not return to the camp, but went to a cave.
This location was discovered by Wen Yujin accidentally and was very suitable for them to live in when cheating.
From the other side of the camp, they learned that this typhoon would take at least three to five days to pass, so Wen Yujin had this idea.
That’s right, this trip was not planned for a long time, but it was also led by Wen Yujin. It was not because Meng Yuxi was too kind, but because Wen Yujin received a secret order.
If possible, Emperor Hongyuan would not be willing to give up any of his subjects!
After entering the cave, Meng Yuxi immediately took out the tools and asked Wen Yujin to set up the tent and temporary bathroom. She took out a stove herself.
Both of them were soaked, and they were afraid that they would get sick if they didn't take a hot bath.
After taking a hot shower and changing into clean clothes, they changed to a small copper stove and started making hot pot.
"Comfortable!" Meng Yuxi held her full stomach with satisfaction and looked forward to it. "When we get to the New World, we will definitely be able to eat better! By then, we will only eat the tenderest vegetables and the best parts of meat!"
Wen Yujin looked at her with a smile, "You will definitely be able to live a life like this!"
As long as they could reach the New World safely and have normal crops and livestock, he would definitely let her live such a life!
The two of them did the same thing over the next two days. They woke up fully armed and went out to "plant trees". They came back to take a shower and eat a big meal...
On the fourth day, thinking that the rain would stop and the typhoon would pass, they only planted once and then hurried back to the camp.
Wen Yujin changed into casual clothes and put on a raincoat and went out.
As soon as the rain subsided a little, the government immediately dispatched two thousand soldiers to cut down trees.
When the rain stopped, An Guo and the people on the other side of the mountain received the news that they had already brought all the trees back!
The Daqi camp was in an uproar, and the families began to rush...
On the contrary, the Wen family and the two allied families are relatively idle.
Their wood had already been gathered together, and now the three families were busy making the boat. The main structure was almost completed, except for some details and the overall assembly and test run.
Upon learning that the land had collapsed again during the typhoon and submerged an area of land, and that they were now only two days away from the sea, the three families were determining the final number of people to board the ship.
The people who had not yet gathered enough materials to build the hull in front of the mountain moved back more than twenty miles.
Meng Yuxi looked at the tens of thousands of people who had migrated and was confused. "Haven't they been here for a long time? Why haven't they gathered all the materials yet?"
Wen Yujin knew some of the inside story, "They sent several waves of people to a place called Liangshan to get wood, but no news has come back so far.
Some people say that there is a mountain god who trapped people in Liangshan, while others say that Liangshan was completely destroyed in an earthquake..."
He shook his head and told a few legends about Liangshan. "Before, the government wanted to send people to Liangshan to take a look. It is said that it is the only place in the Stone Country where there is a forest."
"It's so weird!" It's a bit like her original Shennongjia.
However, according to the original owner's vague memory, the last of Daqi's shipbuilding timber was indeed gathered in Liangshan, but it also came at a huge price.
Although the legend is just a legend, the danger is real.
Meng Yuxi also has a headache now. She has to stimulate the growth of plants at night while everyone is asleep. After the rain stops, her ability has decreased again!
Overhearing Cui Jiaojiao collecting soil, Meng Yuxi sighed, "Brother Jin, let's go collect some too! We can also plant some fruits and vegetables on the boat when the time comes.
It is said that if you don't eat fruits and vegetables for a long time, your teeth and hair will fall out...
In short, it’s very serious and terrible! ”
Wen Yujin happened to be busy with other things, so he could only say, "Take Xiaoxia, Xiaoqiu, and Wen Cheng with you, but don't go too far!"
Meng Yuxi nodded, and took the idle brothers of the Meng family out as well.
"Just dig up this kind of soil, and when you build the ship, don't throw away the wood scraps. Keep them and make them into wooden frames and wooden boxes. You still have the purification and birth-inducing formula from before, right? Make some more, and then you can grow something..."
After giving some instructions to the Meng brothers, Meng Yuxi walked away again and started growing some fruits and vegetables nearby.
The land of the Stone Kingdom is really hard to describe. Not only does it consume her supernatural powers, but she has had a hard time growing crops. Potatoes and sweet potatoes that grow in the ground are even harder to dig!
But we can’t just not eat just because it’s difficult to dig, so everyone can only dig for food while digging the soil.
Meng Yuman is the youngest of the remaining sisters, not even fifteen years old. She came out this time too, and got a hand full of blisters from digging. She burst into tears, "Wow... I won't dig anymore! If I dig them out, the government will come and snatch them away! I can't even get enough to eat!"
She was not angry about the government collecting grain, but about the relatives and clansmen who were considered her elders. Every time the government collected grain, those people would come and "borrow" things based on the smell.
Grandfather and eldest brother naturally refused to do so, considering that they would have to spend a long time drifting on the sea. So these people said some unreasonable things to sow discord between their family and the Guan family as well as the Wen family.
On weekdays, the family only looks prosperous, but in reality, the women and children can’t even get enough to eat!
Even if they didn't complain, they were still unhappy after hearing those words.
The Meng brothers looked at her helplessly, and then looked at the guards they brought with them.
They were not sure about the origins of the Wen family's well-trained guards, but half of them were actually given by the government!
Although the government does not have much power at the moment, it is still stronger than them. What they fear most is offending the government and being held accountable in the New World!
Meng Yuxi herself did not dig the ground. She knew she could not do it so she was lazy. Little did she know that her cousin was so honest and wanted to prove herself so much!
But she didn't plan to comfort him. Instead, she looked around and told Wen Cheng, "Tell the officials to dig it up themselves. We won't hand in what we dug, and we won't hand it in in the future!"
Wen Cheng responded and sent someone back immediately.
The Meng brothers looked at each other in bewilderment, "Dig! Dig quickly! Those officials are all ruthless bandits, we won't be able to rob them later!"
Sure enough, the government officials came very quickly. It should be said that the government officials had been keeping an eye on them for a long time!
Wen Cheng met them by chance halfway along the way.
After everything was dug up, Meng Yuman looked at the few things she had and then at the high horse-drawn carriages piled high by the government, and she started crying again in anger.
Meng Yuxi covered her ears and told Wen Cheng, "Dig up these two orange trees, and then make a bigger wooden barrel to plant them. They are all blooming. If they can survive, we can eat the fruits on the boat. Don't underestimate these fruits, they are disease-resistant!"
There were only five fruit trees in total. The Guan family also dug up two trees, and the Meng family only got one. Meng Yuman's tears fell again.
Meng brothers: ??? You can’t bring the fifth sister (fifth elder sister) with you next time!
The next day when Meng Yuxi went out again, the official didn't even pretend and chased after her from behind.
The Meng family gained even less!
Fortunately, they have learned their lesson today and brought out all the women who can work. The more they can dig, the better!
A group of people are working too hard, which makes Meng Yuxi seem a little lazy.
Second aunt Zhang Cailing's reaction time was a bit slow, and she had no idea that only Meng Yuxi could lead them to find food.
She watched Meng Yuxi wandering around boredly and teased her with a smile, "Xi'er, you don't look like a capable person. It's very hot here. You might as well stay at home with your nephew and husband! You can avoid being exposed to the heat and sun!"
Meng Yuxi also replied with a smile: "Brother Jin is busy, I came out to play and relieve my boredom, so as not to disturb him from doing his work!"
"Hey, our Xier is so sensible! That's right, I can't stay in the tent. I can't sleep in the daytime in this damn weather!" Zhang Cailing smacked her lips, "It's a pity that this Stone Country doesn't like to grow trees, otherwise it would be so comfortable to hide in the forest!"
The other female members looked at Zhang Cailing with difficulty in expressing their opinions. They opened their mouths but in the end said nothing.
In order to prevent Zhang Cailing from telling others without thinking, if they come out again, it will not just be a matter of the government competing with them!
This continued for two or three days, and then the sky turned cloudy again, and another typhoon came!
