Doomsday Farmhouse Tour
Chapter 25
The county seat was demolished, casting a thick layer of gloom over the entire Lujia Village.Everyone seemed extraordinarily silent, silent and oppressive.Even at an age like Wei Rui who loves playing the most, he started to stay at home. Seeing that Lu Xiao had no choice but to make jigsaw puzzles, bamboo dragonflies and many other toys according to the memories of his previous life.The one who made the toy was, of course, Joe's father, the old carpenter.Brother Qiaoer married into Zheng's family and changed his name to Ayun.
"The heat is likely to last for another month or two. While it is not the hottest time, let's go to the back mountain to find out if there is a hidden water source. If we can't find a water source, I'm afraid the chickens, ducks and crops will starve to death. Relying on the water of the pond alone is likely to hang..."
While Lu Xiao was still explaining, something happened in the village again.The accident happened to Huang Tieniu, a big man from the west of the village. His house was burglarized last night and lost more than a dozen chickens and a large bag of grain.Now the elderly in the family are as anxious as ants on a hot pot. In such a disaster year, food is life.
It was the first time that such a big incident happened in the village, and the village chief decisively called everyone to the ancestral hall to solve the incident.Naturally, Lu Xiao also went, and Wei Xun didn't think he was from the village, so he stayed at home with his wife and children.
When Lu Xiao arrived, the village head was still serious, and Huang Tieniu's daughter-in-law was sitting on the ground sobbing and crying, looking pitiful.Because Lu Xiao's shop is doing well, almost every household in the village raises dozens of chickens and ducks.Usually it was sold to Lu Xiao, but now it is planned to be kept by itself.
"Lu Juren, you have to think of a way! You and Liu Juren are the only ones studying in our village..." The Huang family's daughter-in-law looked at Lu Xiao and rushed up to cry. Lu Xiao subconsciously wanted to escape but was embarrassed and could only freeze. .Seeing that the village chief's face was getting worse and worse, he could only push him away with a wry smile.
What can he do with such a thing?Can you make up for losing chickens and ducks?Even if he raises too many, it doesn't make sense!What's more, the village head is still there, so he really offends others by putting a high hat on himself.
"I have no idea, but the village head has a way if I really want to say it! I just got married, and I don't know anything about the village affairs." Lu Xiao quickly declined and comforted the village head, so his expression looked good.
"Okay, from the Huang family. You're in your 50s, and you're holding on to a young man from the village? Don't embarrass the child..." The village chief saw that Lu Xiao was sensible and didn't want to have a bad relationship with a juren, so he quickly stepped on the pole climb.Lu Xiao also cast a grateful look at the village chief at the right time, which made the village chief feel a lot better.Readers, just know how to wink.
The Huang family didn't dare to pester the village head when they heard what the village head said, and told the whole thing intermittently.The more Lu Xiao listened to it, the more he felt strange, and the others were also frowning.
"I'm afraid it was drugged. A dozen chickens were lost without even making a sound. This kind of thing has never happened in our village before. You can tell what you see recently!" After pondering for a moment, the village chief Seriously looking at everyone's expressions while talking.Lu Xiao also observed quietly, most of the people were whispering to each other with normal expressions.Only a few faces changed slightly, and the shivering was obviously guilty.
Lu Xiao didn't need to mention such an obvious demeanor, the village chief could see it clearly.A person who can be the head of a village still has the basic ability to know people.Immediately scolded those few, some of them in the village had seen the big scene.But after a few bluffs, the matter was defrauded. The one who stole the chicken was either someone else or Huang Tieniu's younger brother.People in the village call him Huang Erlai, and he likes to do these sneaky things on weekdays.Unexpectedly, instead of stealing outsiders, he would steal into his own home. Huang Tieniu's daughter-in-law immediately turned her head and looked over, panting heavily.It was raised by him so hard, just to exchange some money for his son to go to school to pay homage to a decent teacher.It's not yet time to encounter a disaster year...
Huang Tieniu's face turned blue immediately, and his eyes were extremely red.But after all, he is his own brother, so he can only suppress and suppress.Even though he knew in his heart whether the dozen or so chickens would come back, he couldn't help but ask. As expected, Huang Erlai had already sold them to the neighboring village early in the morning.
"What do you think I married you for? Years ago, I managed to save enough money, and my son couldn't even go to school! What evil did you say I did, why did I choose you back then..."
Lu Xiao frowned after watching this meal, and subconsciously looked to his side.Chang An felt the gaze, and couldn't help but look back, the gaze was still gentle.Can't help but sigh inwardly, this brother is better than the three aunts and six wives in his original world!
The more I think about it, the more I feel that my daughter-in-law has a good temper.He couldn't help stretching out his hand to pull the person closer, fingers tightly held together under the wide cuffs.Chang An blushed, then lowered his head and let others lead him.
Except for them, others are not so harmonious.It can't be more embarrassing to catch a thief and catch it in your own home.Rao Huang Tieniu took care of his younger brother as much as possible on weekdays, but now he is disheartened.Seeing that his daughter-in-law was about to pack up and go back to her mother's house, she hurriedly chased after her.
Seeing that the people were about to leave, he quickly winked at the village chief.Seeing that Lu Xiao had something to say, everyone went back to doing it again.Letting go of Chang'an, Lu Xiao quickly walked to the middle and expressed his thoughts.
"Looking at the drought, I'm afraid it will be difficult for a while, and people are forced to do anything. Although Huang Erlai is the one who stole the chicken today, it belongs to our own village. But in the future, there is no guarantee that people from outside the village will not come..." Lu Xiao was afraid that the villagers would be lucky, so he could only exaggerate for the time being and said, "A classmate of mine wrote to me, and our disaster is already considered light. Our village is upstream, what if relatives from downstream come to find us? Others Refugees from other places come to us to see if we have water and food, what if they want to rob us?"
"That's what happened, let's not talk about other things... It's difficult for us to go down the mountain because the wild beasts in the back mountain can't bear it..."
"Yes, I heard from the elders in the family that in previous years, the disasters were serious and the government allocated funds. Now the county has been eaten up by wild beasts... I think the town is too bad!"
Everyone exaggerated what you said and what I said, and the village chief coughed heavily when he saw the situation.This matter was brought up by Lu Xiao, and the village head reflexively asked him for a solution!Lu Xiao also thought about it before speaking, talking about his countermeasures in a leisurely manner.
"Everyone knows that I have been cooperating with Boss Wei in the town. I helped him import a large amount of bluestone a few months ago. I thought we might as well use this batch of bluestone to build a wall around the outside of our village. If there is We are not afraid of wild beasts coming, and on weekdays we have nothing to do to make some bows and arrows to be prepared." Qingshi was prepared by Lu Xiao in advance, he knew very well that it would be difficult for his family to survive the end of the world alone, even if they survived, it would be survival.It's better to do a good job for everyone from the beginning. Knowing that the village is safer than the outside, I will try my best to guard it. "These bluestones are not cheap. Boss Wei didn't ask for a penny. We accepted his favor... From now on, we have to treat people as our own."
This is Lu Xiao's way to get Wei Xun to join Lujiacun quickly, even if it's only on the surface.As long as Wei Xun is qualified to enter the village to discuss matters, he can persuade these villagers with half the effort.There are many things that I can't say and can't do, but others will do it.
No one objected to Lu Xiao's proposal, after all, it wasn't spending his own family's money.It's just that everyone is happy to have someone from each family come to help.
After Wei Xun knew about this, he understood Lu Xiao's intentions, and secretly admired him.If the family members who can protect them are safe, it doesn't matter how much blame you have or how many reproachful things you do.And he believed that, based on his understanding, Lu Xiao would not do anything truly harmful.
...
After the matter of building the fence was approved, the villagers rushed to repair it while the morning was cool.Because the Lu family paid for the materials, everyone was too embarrassed to ask him to do anything else.On weekdays, after finishing work, I asked my wife to bring some meals.
Seeing the wall being built little by little, Lu Xiao's heart was mostly relieved.Looking at the food at home, Lu Xiao decided to take part of the bodyguard team to the county town.Wei Xun's grain business couldn't just be thrown away like that, he'd been searching for it for so long, the beast horde should have dispersed by now.
Facing Chang'an, Lu Xiao naturally didn't dare to tell the truth and only said that he would go to other villages to see the situation.When Wei Xun heard that Lu Xiao was going to the county seat, he begged him to visit his sister.Lu Xiao was a little hesitant, after all he had a bad impression of Shen Youzhi and he didn't want to take risks for this kind of person.But Shen Youzhi married Wei Xun's younger sister after all, so he had to take a look at it even if he didn't want to.After thinking about it again and again, I finally agreed.
Lu Xiao took the escort team and sprinkled a lot of realgar powder on them, trying to cover up the smell of the body itself.The members of the bodyguard team have traveled all over the world since their establishment. They may be worried about danger, but they are not afraid of it.Perhaps the realgar had an effect, and there were no wild animals encountered along the way.
Lu Xiao knew that this was only the beginning of the end times, and the most dangerous thing would be the mutation of wild beasts in the future.Just being twice as big is scary enough, not to mention the temperament has become more vicious.Nearly half of his dart team fell ill before, and luckily most survived.
After Lu Xiao's observation, those who can wake up in three or four days have increased energy and physical strength.Those who survived six days like Chang'an's awakened abilities similar to lightning.Increasing power is only the most basic increase, and lightning, flame, and freezing are the real control power.This kind of power is considered rare, so far only he and Lu Jing have awakened this ability except Chang'an.Lu Jing's ability is flame, while his own is space and frost awakened in a dream.The spatial ability was hidden subconsciously by him, only his frost ability was known.
In the two months since the end of the world, there are a total of three opportunities for awakening.It's life or death, and it's basically Lu's father's age that he doesn't even have a chance to wake up.I can only be an ordinary person, and Lu Xiao doesn't care about it... After all, the elders are too old, it's better to be healthy.
A group of people arrived at the county town safely, and the wandering beasts probably dispersed because there was no smell of the living.However, what he saw when he entered the county town, even Lu Xiao, who was used to the bloody scene, couldn't bear it. After all, what he dissected in the past were animals, and now the broken limbs and remains in front of him sounded good!
Fortunately, the bodyguard team has also seen the world, and after forcibly stopping the feeling of vomiting, they began to move forward under the pressure!The destination is naturally the rice line, and only with food can we survive!This is the current thinking of everyone in the dart team, the simplest and most realistic.
"The heat is likely to last for another month or two. While it is not the hottest time, let's go to the back mountain to find out if there is a hidden water source. If we can't find a water source, I'm afraid the chickens, ducks and crops will starve to death. Relying on the water of the pond alone is likely to hang..."
