Doomsday Farmhouse Tour

Chapter 40 Breaking the Cocoon

Father Lu watched Lu Xiao come back with anger still in his eyes, he walked up to Lu Xiao and said a word in a low voice before leaving.Lu Xiao responded in a low voice, probably thinking about it.

The village head has always been an old man who refuses to admit defeat, and this appearance is really unprecedented.Even so, Lu Xiao saluted respectfully.

When the village chief looked at the young man in front of him who had already shouldered the burden of the lives of the entire Lujia Village, his heart suddenly felt sour.Good children belong to other people's family, and those from our own family will only cause trouble.It's natural for him to feel bad about throwing out this old face.

"Have you brought those people back?" The village head looked at Lu Xiao and Lu Zhe and asked tentatively.The two naturally answered truthfully, there is no need to hide such a thing.

"Have you asked on the way?" The village chief did not give up but continued to ask. Lu Xiao frowned slightly upon hearing this.What I expected was right, someone from the village chief's family was involved.This didn't make Lu Xiao happy. Dealing with another branch of the Lu family in this way... would only make him feel ashamed.They are all surnamed Lu, and they all affect the prestige of the Lu clan.

"No, this matter should have been tried in public. The juniors don't dare to overstep their authority..." Saying this meant that Lu Xiao didn't want to take on this relationship directly.Seeing what the village chief had to say, he simply threw the blame on third uncle, "If there is a trial, at least you and third uncle must be present."

"My father is also very concerned about this matter, and he will come soon." Lu Zhe is upright but not stupid, and he can guess it when he sees such a look on the face of the elders who usually have the best face.Neither he nor Lu Xiao wanted to deal with such a major event that involved human life and endangered the peace of the entire Lujia Village.

The village chief also knew that he couldn't hide it from the third uncle, so naturally he didn't worry about whether he would come or not. Lu Xiao sat silently aside after offering someone a cup of tea.

It's normal for Lu's father to be angry, because other people's disasters caused his son to take risks.It is very easy to die under such a beast horde, and they have to hide such a big risk... It is hard to understand.That's why Lu's father left such a sentence beside Lu Xiao...

Do what you want, don't worry about face.

The village head's previous disturbance made Lu's father lose face, and the matter of land reclamation made him try his best to evade it.Now it's not so easy to let people clear up their suspicions, not to mention there are a few lives in the middle.Wouldn't those innocent villagers be more pitiful.

The three silent people had their own thoughts, and it took a while to see the third uncle rushing over.It was already late at night, and it was difficult for such an old man.

"You two have worked hard too. You have been busy for several days." The third uncle didn't speak to the village chief when he arrived, so he was obviously angry.I don't know the specifics, but there must be a lot involved.

When the third uncle arrived, the village chief naturally explained the matter.In fact, the beginning of this matter was just a few young people who couldn't stand the temptation, and more people actually didn't have the courage.If someone hadn't dragged the village chief's son into the water, he felt that there was someone who blocked the gun and couldn't blame the public, so the incident would only get worse.

Today, no one can afford this responsibility.Lu Xiao was relieved after hearing this, but the village chief obviously wanted to choose his son.But this matter is indeed difficult to handle, and those who were tied up are fine.But those who make mistakes in the village have a clear mind, so they should not be dealt with too severely.

The water is too muddy, Lu Xiao doesn't want to drip.They simply used the excuse of being tired all day to take the lead in withdrawing. As for who they want to protect and who they want to give up, it has nothing to do with themselves.

The third uncle obviously didn't want Lu Xiao to withdraw, so he had to be tied together for such a mess.Lu Xiao failed to evade several times, and finally had to obey.

The village head lost the right to speak because of his son's affairs, and the matter was almost dominated by the third uncle.Apart from other things, the people of the Lu family must be bailed out first. Lu Xiao can't say he agrees or disagrees with this matter.As far as he is concerned, saving people is connivance.However, it's not good to push people out, it's really bad.

Listening to the third uncle rambling for a long time, Lu Xiao felt that the time when his patience was about to run out was finally over.After sending people out of Lu's house, Lu Xiao suddenly felt sulking.I worked so hard to protect my family, but in the end, it was destroyed if others said it was destroyed... It was as disgusting as being prostituted for nothing.

The people in the back room could hear the voices in the courtyard clearly, and their hearts ached.Feeling pity over everything else, Chang An pushed open the door and hugged him tightly from behind.

"We don't care about them, let's live by ourselves."

Lu Xiao couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and seemed to have forgotten that the cold war these days moved people to his chest.Regardless of the bloody smell on his body, he directly rubbed against the person.

"Don't worry, fool. This is the last time, the last time..."

...

The villagers who were pushed out to be representatives were warned in advance, and each family was fined a lot of food for those who died.As for some brothers and girls who think they are dirty and directly destroy their marriages, the village has no obligation to take care of them.

Basically, when the dust settled, Lu Jing brought his people back and packed the grain into the cellar overnight.Looking at the batch of grain, Lu Xiao had other thoughts in his mind.

The rice had also been planted, and Lu Xiao consciously went to distant places to recruit some refugees.These people don't live in the village but in the back mountains. These people build houses by themselves, and they mostly collect sulfur ore and soil nitrate on weekdays.

With the last beast horde, Lu Xiao still has lingering fears. □□ was quickly put on the agenda, for the safety of the family to prevent accidental injury and to keep it completely confidential, this group of people has been handed over to Liu Shuhe to secretly monitor.

There is no shortage of food or drink, and the only price is probably freedom.Such a dangerous thing, Lu Xiao will never let it be known by unrelated people.

The manufacture of black powder requires extremely high concentration and prudence, so Lu Xiao never lets the workers who make black powder work overtime and stay up late.In case of an explosion, it's no joke.

Lu Jing came back this time and brought a piece of news that the Wolong entrenched here finally moved.Since Lu Xiao absorbed the first batch of refugees, the second batch of refugees did not leave any survivors by mistake.For the time being, the secret of Lujiacun was kept, but they all knew that it was only temporary.

"The king of Xiangyang has his own soldiers and more than a dozen catapults in the main city. Although there were wild beasts attacking, most of the casualties were civilians. The army hidden in the mountains has survived. If we continue to expand our power... we will look for food in the future Above all, there must be conflicts." Lu Jing is in charge of training the bodyguard team, and it is relatively clear how much each person has.There are a few that can be cultivated emphatically, and he is also very clear.With the current strength of Lujia Village's continuous expansion, it is increasingly necessary to concentrate the right to speak.Given the current situation in Lujia Village, no one thought that one day they would confront the imperial court.

"I know what you want to say. This continuous expansion of manpower will not explain clearly in the future. Self-protection in troubled times, peace and prosperity are private soldiers. You know... I didn't intend to do this, but the bandits and bandits are rampant..." Lu Xiao looked at Lu Jing, thinking Slightly uncomfortable.I thought it was a safe place, but now I find that the end of the world is like an ever-expanding swamp, no matter whether I want to or not, I can't get out and can only sink deeper and deeper.

"Do you want to continue to live in peace or rebuild the county directly? Rebuilding the county while the season is still in its infancy, the army in other places will not travel long distances due to the lack of food supply." Lu Jing only put forward the most urgent request at present, as for To him, Lu Xiao's choice is nothing more than obedience.

This matter is easier said than done, but it has great risks. Once the end of the world passes, what they will face is the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court.But if you don't expand your strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to protect your family.In Lu Xiao's impression, there were still several beast hordes of the previous scale, and not continuing to expand would be tantamount to suicide.

"Now the situation is unclear, and there are forces entangled in various places. Boldly guess, even after the end of the world, the imperial court may not be able to integrate the army. The princes and princes of our dynasty are not too few but too many. This situation is afraid They all want a piece of the pie." Lu Jing's heart is actually inclined towards reconstruction, firstly, in his opinion, the villagers of Lujia Village are mostly using Lu Xiao, and there is no loyalty at all to hide when things happen.Even before the beast horde, how many villagers dared to stand in front?It would be different if the refugees he took in would be different. If he didn't rush, he would die, and the grace of saving his life should be more loyal.

"I understand what you mean... In this way, more workers need to be recruited to build the fence. Especially those who have awakened abilities can be recruited..." Lu Xiao was awakened by Lu Jing's words. He was too confined to Lujia Village before. Get used to a bunch of ignorant kids.

Lu Xiao's decision today is enough to affect all the choices in the future, and he finally chooses the latter when he is in a corner or seeking survival in danger.Not only was he persuaded by Lu Jing, but also because of the crushing of various forces in the dream, he felt a sense of crisis.

Chang'an, Lu Jing, Liu Shuhe and himself are all supernatural beings, which is simply a big piece of fat when supernatural beings are extremely rare.In order to change the fate of being controlled by others, resistance is the only way out.

"Let Shuhe and Shi Lei organize the refugees in various villages to work. Remember the duration of the work. Every three hours is one point, and the points can be exchanged for meals at that time. Wei Xun took a pair of people to buy supplies for the winter, and we Continue to collect food." Once Lu Xiao made up his mind, he would not care what other people think, Wei Xun had no choice... Liu Shuhe is a smart person, he knows the meaning of moving to the county seat better than himself.

"When the county wall is repaired, I will ask the villagers for their opinions. Whether they stay with them or not, it doesn't matter if they all stay. There are those refugees, and they are not sent out." Lu Jing has always had a deep understanding of Lu Xiao's dominance.He was not too surprised that a person made a decision without consulting anyone.

...

With further goals, time becomes more and more urgent.Lu Xiao sent all the people he could send, and even Chang An, who was at home looking at the ledger, also started to help patrol.It was also at this time that Changan completely gave up the common ideas of brothers at that time.The husband and godson have been abandoned, and what he wants to be is someone who can fight side by side with Lu Xiao.

As for Lu Xiao, Chang'an has always been a man in Lu Xiao's heart.Usually, he is reluctant to let him take risks because he is worried or distressed, but if Chang An insists on spreading his wings to fly, he will not stop him.Especially in a dangerous situation where even he is not sure, it is the safest and most regrettable way to be at the forefront.

Whether it is dangerous or painful, no matter how much you pay for it later, you will not regret it.If in this unknown dynasty, a new dynasty or even a brand-new system can be established... I think it would be a worthwhile life.

Lu Xiao and Chang An didn't know how important their step would be in the future.Chang'an stepped forward and provided much support for my brother's participation in politics and the army in the future!
