The whole winter has been shrouded in fog, and even snow has never fallen.The experienced farmer sighed, although he had never seen this kind of weather, but there was no snow in the north, and it seemed that he couldn't even grow crops.Moreover, the fields on this land that were ruined by last year's drought have not turned into good fields.

But the dense fog is decreasing a little bit, just like the speed of snow melting, but it is colder than when the snow melts.Lin Anyu no longer paid attention to how many people left in the village. Those who survived the hunger and cold were those who were physically stronger and able to withstand the cold.

Even young people can't stand it and die, let alone old people and children. Now that people are dead, no one has the energy to set up a dojo for them.The old man can still dig a grave for him. If he has the strength, he can cut down a tree to make a thin coffin.

And children can only be wrapped in straw mats. Even if parents feel distressed, they will run far away and dig a pit quietly to bury them. Children who have not grown up cannot be buried next to their ancestors. Or hurt your family.

After a few months of white mist, people feel that their eyes are almost blind. When the fog finally clears, although they can clearly see who the evildoers are, the broken order can no longer be restored. coming.

When there are no foreign enemies, the nature of human beings will cause them to fight against those around them, sometimes for resources, and sometimes even just for a moment of loyalty or face.

The emperor is dead, and those who are eligible to inherit the royal family are also dead. Now it's time for open swords and open guns to grab this unique throne.Without the smog that hindered their footsteps, they could gather people with the ability and conditions, and began to occupy this vast land step by step.

When the natural disaster had just ended or had not yet ended, the entire Yan Dynasty fell into the flames of war.Especially the generals who hold the army, even if some of the soldiers escaped, they still have tens of thousands or even 10,000+ people in their hands. Food and drink for so many people has become a big problem.

It's March now, when it's green and yellow, and even the weeds on the mountain have just begun to sprout a little, and they don't have to eat grass if they want to.

Looking around the mountains and plains, there are dusty dead trees everywhere. The ravaged land has temporarily been unable to provide human beings with the resources they need to survive.

Even if there is, it is still in the endless mountains, and the food consumed by tens of thousands of people every day even if they are not full cannot be underestimated.

The army guarding the edge of the Yan Kingdom, when the imperial court was unable to afford them and had no food to distribute, their generals focused on the nomads on the grasslands. Their cattle and sheep could sustain the entire army for several months.Especially when the other party couldn't see them in the past few months, it was like entering a no-man's land. Originally, the other party was fighting the grass valley in the Yan Dynasty, but this time the two sides changed their positions.

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses who were out of production ate up the grasslands that had also suffered some disasters and turned them into wasteland. After the disappearance of a few horses, the general simply ordered the horses to be used as food, and asked the gang leaders to kill some of them every day so that the soldiers in the barracks would not starve to death.

When there was no food outside or even war horses, especially when he heard that there was no one in the royal family, his ambition, which was surging against the wind, immediately overwhelmed him.

Counting the remaining soldiers, they marched towards the imperial city, and captured all the cities they passed along the way.It's just that what stopped them was not other soldiers and horses, but the occupied cities were also unable to support this huge army. Not to mention the sudden extra people, the drought last year made it difficult for them to support themselves.

General Zhou was one of them. After capturing the city, he was helpless in the face of these difficulties.In fact, the current situation is that it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Let alone a general who can only fight, even a Zhuge Liang who knows astronomy and geography can’t face hundreds of thousands of hungry people. small portion.

After discovering that the captured cities could not be governed, he felt that his own army was of course more important than the army and the people.General Zhou simply smashed the pot and snatched the rations that the people had saved so hard to feed his soldiers. As for the ones that were robbed by him, he didn't want to worry about the doomed failure and wear himself down. thing.When the looted food was almost finished, he took the army to the next place, and slowly moved towards the imperial city along this road.

Even though the royal family there is gone, in the hearts of the people of Yan Dynasty, it is still the capital, the heart of the whole country. If you want to wear the crown, you have to be in the imperial city to be justified.

……

The most inconvenient thing in ancient times was communication. Even if the flames of war outside had already started, but they hadn't reached their place, they could only live as in previous years.

Even though Lin Anyu is concerned about the outside situation, he has no way of getting news in this mountain village. He works and rests without sunrise and sunset, just dealing with some small problems in life every day.What makes their family different from others is that they can at least have enough food, and when other people's faces are sallow, they can also glow red. This simply means that their family has food, and it is a lot, enough for them to eat without any scruples during this famine. full.

Of course, this is not only due to the food stored last year, but also the mountain behind it.Even after the disaster of last year, it is still standing here. Although the mountain outside is now bald, the danger in the depths of the mountain is still daunting.

Even though they don't go out very much, the current situation of Lin Anyu's family is still eye-catching to the people in the village. A few idlers in the village walked in in the middle of the night, but after taking off their cotton clothes the next day, tied them up and threw them outside, no one dared to come secretly. up.

It's not the weather that blows, without the cotton coats, just that layer of fog can kill them half of their lives, and catching cold is inevitable.

From then on, even if they secretly turned into lemons, they could only watch in secret. You must know that Lin Dajiang didn't even give face to his old mother, let alone some relatives who were more distant by blood.

Lin Anyu took advantage of his free time to make some toys for Xiao Zhengluan, other things he can't play with now, only the cot that he can sleep in now, and rattles and bells that can interest the little guy .

Lin Anyu was shaking the rattle above, and the two projectiles dropped by ropes on both sides hit the drum surface, making a booming sound.

"Ah~" Lin Zhengluan stretched out his hand to reach the rattle dangling in front of him, but he failed to catch it after several grabs.He took his hand back and put it in his mouth, and turned his head to look at the rattle that was still rattling in doubt, wondering why it ran away even though it was caught there.

"Don't be funny, be careful he's crying." Hao Yu brought over the hot goat's milk and told Lin Anyu to pick up the baby, it's time to eat.Children don't have much appetite and snacks, but they are easily hungry, and usually have to be fed once an hour.However, there may also be reasons why all you drink is liquid, and you can't control your satiety very much.

Lin Anyu buried his face in the little guy's stomach, giggling under the blanket, and put aside the doubt that he didn't get the rattle just now.

The smell of goat milk is more attractive to Zheng Luan, as soon as he smells it, he turns his head left and right until he sees Hao Yuzheng holding a spoon, stirring the goat milk in the small bowl, excitedly trying to reach out his hand, but Lin Anyu grabs and presses it down.

Hao Yu used a spoon to feed him goat milk little by little. After eating something in his mouth, the little guy was not in a hurry. He ate deliciously, and quietly let Lin Anyu imprison him.

"It doesn't seem very good to just drink this. Next time, feed some rice soup for a change." Lin Anyu hugged Zhengluan and said, after all, goat milk is not breast milk, and it won't be that good if you eat it for a long time. Rice soup is actually quite nutritious. In particular, the rice soup is neither dry nor cold, and it nourishes the stomach, so it is good for Zheng Luan to drink some occasionally.After another month, Zhengluan can start eating complementary foods. As long as there are alternatives, they can usually be found, so there is no need to worry too much like now.

Hao Yu didn't quite understand why it was bad, but An Yu would never harm his own children, so he nodded in agreement, and was going to cook a small pot of porridge later, and it was almost time to cook the rice until it was soft and then let it cool. It was time for Luan to eat again.

……

Spring is here, and it's time to plant crops in the fields. In this day and age, people are afraid of instability, and God is tossing them. Last year, they didn't dare to plant wheat at all.Sure enough, I didn't wait for this heavy snow until next spring.

At this time, there is no need for others to say anything. Those who can still farm at home will automatically and consciously grow foods with high yields such as corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes. As for whether they are delicious or not, who cares?Thank God if you can eat enough and survive. The simple people dare not ask for more, and they have no way to ask for more.

However, this never-ending disaster made many people unable to achieve such a simple wish. Without the fog that hindered them, the food that could be saved was almost eaten up.

Going on like this is not an option. If they don't want to starve to death, they have to think of other ways to survive. One after another, some people go out to inquire about news from other places.Some people came back, but some people stayed on the land outside forever, with no bones left.

Those lucky enough to come back no longer open their mouths to ask for help from outsiders or the court. They have witnessed the scene of the people's livelihood, and they even feel lucky for the land and water where they are.

At least most of them survived. When they went out to find a way out, the more they went out, the more serious the situation they encountered, so that they began to doubt whether they could find hope for a better life outside. After going down, I had to go back to Stone Village unwillingly.

After seeing the mountains and rivers of my hometown, I no longer want to leave to find a better life that is hopeless, and I am nostalgic for a stable home.

In fact, their stone village is what God loves. Look at the water, look at the majestic and endless mountains, isn't this the hope for them to survive?

After experiencing so many disasters, he can still stand strong here. Although there are invisible dangers inside, why not fight hard compared to starving to death?

If they win, they can hold on for a while longer, and maybe they can survive until another crop of grain is harvested in the field, which means they have overcome this difficulty.

If he loses, it's just a gamble on his fate, which is destined not to survive this spring and summer.

But sometimes things are not so desperate, and it may not be impossible to have a good result, save the lives of most people, and gain something.

The eyes of the villagers gradually turned to Lin Dajiang's family, who have been living a prosperous life since the separation of the family, and are still able to eat and drink enough.
