Chapter 9 Trapped in Shiyuezhuang

The two of them packed up and planned to go to the village to have a look, one was that Jing Junzhi wanted to see if there was a way to contact the outside world, and the other was that they both wanted to see if the water had receded and when they could leave here.

For Mo Qingliu, he had to make some careful plans for the future. Although it was decided to leave this place with Jing Junzhi, the original owner's parents were still here, and they couldn't just leave it alone, and they didn't think about how to place them for a while. If you take them away, you will still be in a situation where the mud bodhisattva has no money to cross the river, let alone feed the two old people, it seems that you still have to plan carefully.

Although this Shiyue Village is small, it is still "complete", it looks a little poor, and there can be a small market in the village. Usually, the most basic things for the daily use of the villagers in the village can still be guaranteed. Mo Qingliu and Jing Junzhi came to the bazaar, probably because the water has been deserted recently, there are few vendors, and occasionally three or two shops are open, and they follow the fate into the nearest one.

"Let's just ask about this first." Jing Junzhi decided to ask Mo Qingliu before entering the door, and asked for her opinion.

"Well, I don't think it's bad to choose any one." Mo Qingliu did not object, and the two entered the store together.

"Shopkeeper, may I ask ......" Jing Junzhi saw the shopkeeper of this small shop lying on a tattered rocking chair squinting, and immediately came to his senses when he heard his inquiry.

"I didn't expect anyone to be there at this time? Now it's just noodles. A spirit stood up and began to greet the shopkeeper.

"No, no, we're not here to eat." Mo Qingliu explained.

"Ah, isn't this the daughter of Old Man Mo's family!" Only then did the shopkeeper notice Mo Qingliu behind Jing Junzhi, and then reacted that the young man he asked just now was the one he saw at Mo's house yesterday, "Yes, yes, aren't you the young man yesterday!" Come on, come on! You two sit down, I'll get you some food if it's okay, you're welcome! ”

Before Mo Qingliu and Jing Junzhi could refuse again, they saw that the store had already gone to the back kitchen to cook food, and the two who were left behind had to find a table in the store to sit down and wait.

After a while, the shopkeeper came back with two bowls: "I've added ingredients to you!" Eat while it's hot, eat it hot! ”

"Thanks, this is, what's added?" Mo Qingliu looked at the two bowls of boiled noodles with no color at all, and couldn't help but ask.

"What, the last piece of meat in the house was stewed in soup the day before yesterday, you young people have to eat something good!" Listening to the tone of the store's voice, it should be that they have given them all the "good things" left in the store.

Mo Qingliu couldn't help but feel a little sad and a little moved, Shiyuezhuang is poor, but the people are simple, except for the poor people of the Jin family, there are more kind people.

She took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopsticks and ate them in a big gulp, speaking of which was the first more "formal" meal she had eaten since she came to this world, "It's delicious, thank you." ”

Jing Junzhi was moved by her somewhat excited behavior, and began to eat the bowl of noodles in front of him, and asked while eating, "By the way, do you know how the flood situation is now?" Is there a way to get out of the village? ”

"Out of the village? Don't think about it, it's definitely no fun! The shopkeeper pulled a wooden bench and sat across from them and said, "Young man, you are an outsider, you may not know that our village is a relatively special piece of land in the semi-middle waist of Shiyue Mountain. If you want to get out of the village, you have to go down the mountain first, but this flood has flooded the mountain, and it is impossible to go out for the time being. ”

"Has this ever happened before?" Jing Junzhi continued to ask.

"Yes, yes, the people in the village are used to it, as long as it rains heavily every year in the rainy season, they basically have to be flooded for ten days and half a month to be isolated from the world. But fortunately, there has been no plague or anything in our village, and there is a village dozens of miles down the mountain because of the flood, and I don't know how many people have died. The shopkeeper sighed as he spoke.

"Every year, there is still a plague, why is there no one to take care of it?" Mo Qingliu put down his chopsticks and asked.

"Hey, girl, you're just young, and there are some things you don't understand. Our small broken village, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so he can't control us here. Besides, there are few people in the poor countryside, and it's thankless to manage it, in short, more is better than less. "I didn't expect the shopkeeper in such a remote village to see the cause and effect of the matter so thoroughly.

"Whether it is far away or not, whether it is partial or not, we should not turn a blind eye to what should be managed." What I didn't expect was that after hearing these words, Jing Junzhi's expression suddenly became serious, and there was a sense of majesty in the words he said, which even made people a little scared.

"Alas, but this is not what our little people say, the little young impulse is a good thing, a good thing!" As the shopkeeper spoke, Jing Junzhi's right hand clenched his fist vigorously, as if he was making up his mind.

"Then it seems that there is no way to go out at present, so we can only wait for ten days and a half after the water recedes. What Mo Qingliu said to Jing Jun was also said to himself.

Although it may be a long delay for Jing Junzhi, it is not a good thing for herself, adapting to the environment is her strength, and at the same time, she has enough time to think about the future arrangements.

"Yes, young man, you have to wait if you want to go home, don't worry, come and chat with me when you have time, eat noodles, and add ingredients to you!" The sincerity of what the store said made everyone feel much more relaxed.

"Well, then it's okay to get it." Although Jing Junzhi said this, he was still ready to see if he could contact the outside after he was free.

After getting the conclusion, Mo Qingliu and Jing Junzhi said goodbye to the store, and they discussed it as they walked back.

"Let's divide the wolves and tigers killed yesterday among the people in the village, the people in the village, everyone should be very short of food because of this natural disaster." Mo Qingliu almost leaked his mouth, fortunately, he is also a killer all his life, and his reaction is always faster than the process of thinking, if he says "people from this village", he may be heard by Jing Junzhi.

In fact, Jing Junzhi had already heard that something was wrong, and in his opinion, Mo Qingliu was not like a person from this village at all. The use of words between the words is obvious, subconsciously dividing this place into "they" rather than their own people.

Since I met yesterday, this girl is not like the people here in terms of skills and abilities, but she is indeed a child of the Mo family, and Jing Junzhi can't judge the reason for a while.

"Well, I'll help you out." Jing Junzhi replied.

"Well, there's one more thing, I have to clean up the house. The door had to be repaired because it was broken by those people yesterday. Mo Qingliu listed the things he was anxious about one by one.

"Okay, by the way, speaking of which, what about those corpses yesterday?" Jing Junzhi suddenly remembered that when he woke up today, his body was gone.

"I took care of it so as not to complicate it." Mo Qingliu answered his question very naturally.

Jing Junzhi shuddered, and quietly thought in his heart, it is best not to accidentally provoke the talent in front of him.
