Chapter 79 Auntie
Many people have gathered in the monk’s village.
Wheat is like honey, attracting dense crowds.
When they walked out from Changshan Town, there were 200 of them. By the time they arrived in the village, there were already 300 of them. There were also refugees coming in one after another. Until now, the number of people has been lost. I just feel like this small village can no longer accommodate so many people.
Some young and middle-aged people simply went to reclaim the wasteland nearby, and took stones from the mines to build new houses.
When there are more people, there will naturally be more work, but there will not be enough food.
Although Qian Chen has a lot of food, it is not so durable when there are more people. The amount of porridge Caiyi was given was limited, and Caiyi only had one person. Even if he had to spread the beans to form an army, the little girls would definitely be too busy to come out to help.
As for the cut wheat, it still needs to be dried, shelled, and steamed in a pot. Although the quantity is sufficient, it is still a consumable after all.
After Xiao Changcheng discovered this problem, he shook the wheat ears twice more. A lot of wheat did grow on the ground around him, but the number was obviously much less than at the beginning.
Seeing this, Xiao Changcheng knew that he could not continue to rely on this wheat ear to provide food.
Then he directly found the monk and Caiyi who were still busy and told them about the matter.
“This is troublesome.” Caiyi had two dark circles on her eyes. Apparently she hadn’t slept well in the past two days. Arranging the residents and dividing the porridge took up a lot of her energy. Now she can’t even talk. All yawned.
She braced herself:
"I'm not good at it yet, and I haven't learned how to make this food grow again. If it doesn't work, let's just go grab King Kang's."
"I'm afraid it's not possible now." Xiao Changcheng shook his head: "The Taoist priest told me before that the direction should be to accumulate grain widely and build walls high. Now we are still in the stage of accumulating grain, and so many people are hard-pressed. King Kang is definitely unrealistic.”
At this point, Xiao Changcheng also knew that the best choice was to entrust the two Generals Jindou to go directly to Xuzhou City to open the city gate and bring food. However, he also kept Zuo Chen's teachings in mind. General Jindou was so powerful. , but in the end there were only two of them. They couldn't support them with their own power, so everything was just nonsense.
Now that many strong young men have had enough to eat, they are practicing in the village. General Jindou is giving guidance, and they are practicing well.
Sighing, Xiao Changcheng said: "It's a pity that it will take some time for the crops to mature."
"I can give this a try."
The monk on one side suddenly When he spoke, Xiao Changcheng and Caiyi looked sideways at him, with some doubts in their eyes.
The monk was a little embarrassed to be stared at, scratched his head and said:
"I recently discovered that when I put this golden light on crops, it seems to make the crops grow quickly, and I have been planting fields all my life. For millet, Wheat, I still have some insights.”
The monk looked at the wheat ears in Xiao Changcheng’s hand again and hesitated for a while. :
“When the Taoist priest was playing with the ears of wheat, I was wondering if I could change the seeds so that more wheat could be grown, so that the villagers would be able to eat more easily. That’s why I planned to do more. Find a few people who know how to farm, and if they work hard, they might be able to grow good wheat."
"Okay."
Xiao Changcheng did not doubt that he was there, so he handed the wheat ears to the monk, and the monk went directly to find someone to study.
Looking at Cai Yi again, his eyes finally fell on Cai Yi’s left foot.
Now Caiyi is holding a piece of cloth with his left foot, and blood is still oozing from it. It looks quite miserable.
She had to use a crutch to walk normally, but she became a unique sight in the village.
Caiyi has been really busy lately and has no time to deal with the injury on her foot.
In addition to sharing porridge, she also held the position of doctor.
That is the big doctor in the village.
This is a coincidence. People who have been hungry for a long time are still prone to diseases, either because they were sick before coming here, or after eating a full meal, the person who is located on the soul-born light will The obsession was gone, and my body collapsed instantly.
In short, many people are strong after eating a full meal, and many are weak after a full meal.
Weak bones will naturally make you sick easily. Although there are doctors in the village, there are only a few of them, and there are no medicines. Some of the doctors are even sick, so things are naturally a bit chaotic.
Caiyi was still dividing the porridge, when a wife and her granddaughter came to her. With a bang, she knelt down to Caiyi, hoping that Caiyi could use her supernatural powers to save the child.
But she didn't know this, so she had to use her innate energy to try to treat the little girl, but she didn't expect that the effect was excellent. As time passed, her reputation spread, and many residents came to see her for some treatment. A minor illness.
The result was a busy front foot hitting the back of the head.
"Miss Caiyi, is your leg okay?" Xiao Changcheng couldn't help but look at Caiyi's lame foot.
“It’s not a big problem.” Cai Yi glanced at her feet.
Now the soles of her feet are a little itchy and painful. Her own energy is mainly used to save others. She wants to heal her own foot injury, but she really can't have any spare time.
But she doesn't care much. Anyway, she has been next to the porridge pot recently and doesn't move much, so it's okay.
"Choose a few more young men with good eyesight and take the time to take a look at the movements of Xuzhou City. I always feel that King Kang will not give up. Didn't we seize some horses and knives before? Get them all ready, be more careful."
Caiyi gave Xiao Changcheng a few words, and Xiao Changcheng nodded in agreement.
Although there are many troubles, life is indeed getting better and better visible to the naked eye.
There will eventually be a solution.
Seeing that Xiao Changcheng was busy, Caiyi felt that he was almost rested, so he walked towards the porridge pot with his crutches.
After taking a few steps forward, a group of little guys ran over to her.
They were obviously full and their faces were red.
These dolls were running in front, and some were chasing after them. The one running at the front looked back and looked behind, without looking at the road, and plopped directly into Cai Yi's calf.
Cai Yi said "Hey," and the little doll turned around and looked up at Cai Yi. Open your mouth and stare:
"Big... aunt!"
Caiyi: "???"
"This big aunt!" Auntie, what do you mean?" Cai Yi's mouth twitched slightly.
"My mother said that you have magical powers and should be called you respectfully. The villagers thought about it for a long time and thought it would be safest to call you auntie."
Caiyi opened her mouth wide.
Can’t you just call me Fairy Fairy?
Are you cool?
But after the words were stuck in his throat for a long time, Caiyi couldn't squeeze out a few words in the end.
Forget it, the folks can call it whatever they want.
"Auntie, if you have time, can you help me go and see my mother?" The child asked Caiyi again. Caiyi was a little curious, so she asked:
"Who is your mother?" Are you sick?"
"Not really," the little baby shook his head: "My mother is pregnant, and my little brother will be born in two days."
Caiyi Lian. A little green again.
Delivery.
She has never done this!
Seeing the little baby's face filled with anticipation, Caiyi could only sigh in the end, forcing a smile and nodding.
The little doll immediately cheered, pulled Caiyi and walked to a big house in the village.
When they got here, Cai Yi's face turned even greener just when she looked inside.
That room was full of pregnant women, and upon closer inspection, there were actually six of them!
Everything from a slight bulge in the lower abdomen to a swollen and round belly.
They were either leaning on chairs or lying on the bed in various postures. When they saw Cai Yi, they all wanted to get up and salute Cai Yi.
“Hey! You can’t do it, you can’t do it!” Caiyi quickly stopped these pregnant women.
This seems to be kowtowing by one person, but the kowtow is enough for two people.
The little doll that had pulled her here immediately pulled Cai Yi and pointed at a woman. Her face was slightly sallow, and compared with Cai Yi's delicate face, she was definitely not good-looking. Her hands were even more calloused, and she looked like she was always on the ground. Do farm work there.
This woman seemed to have a big belly and was not easy to move. When she saw Caiyi approaching, she wanted to stand up and salute, but she couldn't move. Caiyi immediately took her hand and stopped her. :
“Stop moving, it’s important to take good care of yourself.”
The woman’s somewhat withered face turned red instantly:
“Auntie.”
Cai Yi waved his hand, but he also blushed.
She saw the round belly again, and almost subconsciously, she put her ear against it.
Listening carefully, Caiyi seemed to be able to feel the child moving slightly.
A smile appeared on her face.
At this moment, she seemed to understand what Zuo Chen once said about "the Dao's heart is in harmony" meant.
Just at this moment, a villager suddenly walked in from outside the door, with a nervous expression on his face:
"Auntie, a soldier came outside. He said that he wanted to find someone who could take care of the matter."
< br>"Little soldier?" Caiyi looked confused and had to let go of the pregnant woman for the time being and limped towards the village gate.
It didn’t take long for Caiyi to arrive at the entrance of the village.
At a glance, she saw an armored soldier riding a horse standing in the distance not far away.
Who is this person? What do you want to do?
Cai Yi frowned.
……
Chen Niu rode a fast horse and ran in the direction of Niu Jinshan.
He held the tiger talisman in his arms, and his heart became eager.
If he can bring the ghost army back, he will probably get a lot of rewards!
Thinking of this, he smiled from ear to ear.
After running for a while, Chen Niu suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He held the horse and slowed it down.
Frown and look around.
If I remember correctly,
this should be Luoshan City.
Where did I go when I was so big?
Grandpas, please support me! !
