Chapter 46: I Want to Be an Emperor
"Little master, don't ask, hurry up and cook!" After saying that, the old man closed the door.
Zhu Chongba was very moved in his heart, after all, at this time when natural and man-made disasters are rampant, this grain is more valuable than gold! He secretly remembered the location of the old man's house in his heart.
At this time, Zhu Chongba's stomach began to rumble again, he hurriedly ran back, and after a while, he ran to the place where Xiaobao was, Xiaobao was really capable, and he had already prepared everything for dry firewood. He didn't know where he had moved two large stones, with just enough space in the middle to fit a bowl.
Seeing everything Xiaobao had prepared, Zhu Chongba felt a long-lost warmth in his heart, "Xiaobao, you are really capable!" Come and cook with us. Zhu Chongba saw that there was no water, he went back to find someone to ask for some water, the water in the river was dry, looking at this situation, Zhu Chongba was really speechless, although there are natural disasters now, but more important is man-made disasters, it seems that it is not possible to rebel.
It's just that he is too young now, and the most important thing is that the time has not yet come, in fact, he can still make preparations, after all, opportunities will only be given to those who are prepared. Although Zhu Chongba is now following the path of the real Zhu Yuanzhang in history, he can't change the inevitability of this history, but he can change some small things.
He now has a lot of advanced knowledge in later generations, although he can't do many things, but there are still some things that can be done and tried. For example, now he can do a lot of things.
He is a monk now, and there is a saying in the Buddhist family that it is better to save a life than to create a seventh-level floating slaughter, although he doesn't know what this sentence means now, but he thinks it is a great thing. And for what he wants to do in the future, there will be no bad impact.
Although this disaster has not been long now, many people have died, and no more people can die, this is Zhu Chongba's idea, after all, only in this way can these innocent people be saved.
Zhu Chongba had a thought in his heart at this time, that is, he wanted to save people and save more people, after all, these are his compatriots, and in a certain sense, they are all his predecessors in history.
How to save people? At this time, only the imperial court has such great ability, and he wants to be the emperor, this is what he thinks in his heart. This is the first time he has taken the initiative to have such an idea, isn't there a sentence to say? If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell, it's just that Zhu Chongba has changed this sentence now, and he changed it to I don't be the emperor who will be the emperor.
This is the so-called current affairs to create heroes! The idea of being an emperor began to arise in Zhu Chongba's heart, and then slowly grew.
"Brother Chong, what are you doing! The water is boiling, hurry up and get the rice! Xiaobao said.
At this time, Zhu Chongba woke up from his imagination, "Okay, I was distracted just now." He put all the washed rice into the bowl, but fortunately there were two small bowls, which Xiaobao had taken out, and he did not know where he got them.
However, Zhu Chongba will not ask this question, after all, what he has to solve now is the problem of eating, which must be solved, otherwise, they will not be able to walk at all. After all, there is still a long way to go, and no one knows exactly how far it will be.
Xiaobao was adding fire, and Zhu Chongba was turning over those rice grains with a wooden stick to prevent them from sticking to the bowl. He didn't know how the other monks used the bowl, but that's how he used it.
Not to mention, this bowl is really easy to use, "Xiaobao, do you often burn fires at home?" Zhu Chongba looked at Xiaobao.
"Yes! I like to burn fires, not to mention that the wood is very dry, and I have a way to light the wet wood. Xiaobao said.
"Xiaobao, you are so useful." Zhu Chongba praised.
People are like this, they all need to be affirmed, after Xiaobao listened to Zhu Chongba's affirmation, he was more motivated, not only that, Xiaobao gave birth to a firm idea in his heart, that is, Zhu Chongba will go there in the future, he will go, if Xiaobao agreed to follow Zhu Chongba because he was forced by hunger, then this time he is sincere. You can see how powerful this praise is.
Zhu Chongba's bowl was given to him by the old monk, and the old monk who gave him the bowl once said that if Zhu Chongba could survive this catastrophe, then he would teach Zhu Chongba some stunts.
The young Zhu Chongba didn't seem to understand the old monk's words, but he remembered it in his heart, looking at the heat coming out of the bowl, Zhu Chongba actually felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. Because the bowl was big enough, it wouldn't be enough for the two of them.
Time passed quickly, and with the support of sufficient fire sources, the rice in the bowl was finally cooked, although it didn't take long, but in Zhu Chongba's eyes, it seemed like half a century had passed, they were really hungry.
Just now, Zhu Chongba's idea of being the emperor rose again, if he was the emperor, this meal would definitely be eaten, and it wouldn't be so simple!
Zhu Chongba secretly made up his mind in his heart, that is, he must work hard to be an emperor, to be a good emperor who has no one before and no one after him, this is Zhu Chongba's current thoughts, and it is also what he will do in the future.
It turned out that when Zhu Chongba read history, although he also lamented that Zhu Yuanzhang's road to becoming an emperor was not easy, but now he is really experiencing it, although he was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but now he is completely used to it, the reason is actually very simple, that is, he has no other way now, only to go on like this.
It turns out that when Zhu Jianhua was in school, there was always a problem with doing things, that is, procrastination, if it wasn't at the last moment, he wouldn't do it, although he also knew that this problem was not good, but there was no way, because procrastination has formed a habit.
But at this moment, Zhu Chongba no longer has any habit of procrastinating, because he has no choice, his situation is so bad at the moment, if he delays any longer, all that will be left for him is death.
He is the one who wants to be the emperor, how can he die! Zhu Chongba was full of confidence at this time.
The rice was cooked, and the two of them began to eat, and their uncompetitive stomachs began to bark again, and Xiaobao ate a lot of rice, after all, this is all they eat these days.
Although they can support it, after all, they are in a special period of growing their bodies, and they are definitely not enough. This time they finally had a full meal.
