Seven days later, in the early morning, Yunshen Village, the residence of the old man Feng.

There was a lot of snoring in the hut, and everyone was still asleep, except for Uka who had already woken up, tossing and turning in his own little place, unable to sleep. After Old Man Yun brought back to Wuka that day, he assigned everyone a small place where they could just sleep, and their respective things were piled up in their own small place.

Since yesterday, everyone has been aware of one problem - there is not enough food.

Although since three days ago, Lin Fenglei has set up more than ten places around the village for the villagers to receive food, but it is only a drop in the bucket, and what the villagers can receive is only the most basic food, which can only keep you from starving to death, filling your stomach or something, it is just wishful thinking.

These old people are all old, and they can't eat much a day, but they just wronged Wuka, a child who is still growing his body, he was woken up by hunger in the middle of the night last night, and now he wakes up so early, in fact, most of the reason is still hungry.

"Woke up so early?" Old Man Feng's voice suddenly sounded in Wuka's ears, and he subconsciously turned his head, only to see that Old Man Feng was sitting next to the fire, adding firewood to it unhurriedly.

Uka moved his steps to the old man's side, sat down beside the old man, and then wrapped his hands around his knees, watching the old man throw the slightly damp firewood into the fire one by one, and then watched the sparks in the fire rise little by little, and finally turn into a beating flame.

"Old man, I always feel uncomfortable when I don't bake the fire, and this body is even more uncomfortable," Old Man Feng smiled at Wuka, stretched out his rough old hand and touched his head, and said, "I have wronged you, Wuka." ”

Wuka quickly shook his head and said, "How can you be wronged? Grandpa Feng took me in, I was too late to be happy, how could I be wronged? ”

Old Man Feng just stroked his white beard and didn't speak, but the sorrow in his eyes became deeper and deeper.

The sky gradually turned white, the sleeping people began to wake up, and the house became lively.

"Hey, where's my pillow?" Someone with unkempt hair and rubbing sleepy eyes began to fumble wildly.

"Where did you get the pillow?" One of the people sleeping next to him asked.

"That's it...... It's my baggage," the questioner ran his fingers through his hair and began to look for his "pillow" again.

"Did anyone see his pillow?" The people around him looked up to help him and asked the people around him loudly.

"No, no," asked the man's voice, and he lowered his head happily, pulled his "pillow" from his feet, and said, "Here, here!" ”

"Fuck! Why are your old boy's feet on Lao Tzu's mouth? ”

"It's not the ...... I want to ride"

"Ouch, my old waist, I can't sleep on this floor, I want to go back soon, I'm starting to miss my bed."

tomato

"Who wouldn't? I also began to think about the white rice porridge at home, tsk tsk, that taste, eat it once, I will ensure that you will not forget it! ”

"I haven't seen you take it out for me to eat."

"Hey, isn't that less? I'll have to save some, after all, I don't have enough to eat myself. ”

"Speaking of which, how much food do we have left? When are we going to get food today? I'm a little hungry. ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the originally noisy hut

Suddenly it was quiet, everyone was stunned, unable to say a word, let alone in the mood for gags, the person who asked this question probably realized that he had said the wrong thing, pretended to slap himself twice, and sighed, "Hey, what nonsense am I talking about?" ”

......

After a while, the atmosphere in the room gradually warmed up again. Uka had been sitting by the fire, and when he had warmed up again, he suddenly stood up and whispered to Old Man Feng, "I'll go out." ”

Old Man Feng raised his head and glanced at him, knowing that he couldn't persuade him, so he had no choice but to say, "Pay attention to safety." ”

Uka has been going out these days, although he has repeatedly warned him that he is likely to be arrested as a fine work when he goes to the street now, but he still can't stop Uka from going out.

"yes, I know." Uka didn't look back, stepped over a few people who were still sleeping, pushed open the door and walked out.

It's August, and the Yunshenzhai in the morning brings a hint of autumn cold, which is not into the bones, but piercing the skin.

Except for the patrolling samurai, there were few people on the road, and the villagers were huddled in their own homes, for fear that if they went out, they would get into some trouble. In addition to the big family, the situation of those ordinary people in the village is not much better than that of the old man Feng, if there is a daughter-in-law who runs the family, maybe it can last for a while, if it is the kind of big spending, it will be estimated that it should live on relief food.

The patrolling samurai will carefully interrogate everyone who wanders on the street, once they find any suspicious behavior, the samurai have the right to kill the person they interrogate on the spot, two days ago, there was a man who drank alcohol and couldn't stay at home, and had to come out to hang out, and when he was interrogated, he couldn't say anything, so he was killed, although it turned out later that he was indeed a person from Yunshenzhai, and he was not a spy, but everyone was dead, and no matter how much trouble the family made, it would be useless.

Uka looked around the street, as if looking for something, but in any direction he could see a patrol of samurai.

He was looking for a gap, a gap where he could get through the samurai's blockade and return to his home.

A heavy hand suddenly rested on Wuka's shoulder, followed by a deep voice, "Child, what are you looking at?" ”

Wuka's figure froze suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, then he turned around, forced the fear in his heart, and said to the samurai with his hand on his shoulder with a wry smile, "This lord, I was looking for my brother's toy, yesterday I went out to play with him, he accidentally lost the toy, and last night I couldn't sleep with my grandfather, I can't help it today, so I thought about taking advantage of the early day, come out to find him, just now I looked around, thinking about where my brother's toy might have fallen." ”

"Oh?" The samurai smiled, the hand on Uka's shoulder unconsciously increased in weight, and asked, "Did you find that?" ”

"If you go back to the master, you haven't yet." Uka endured the pain in his shoulder, still smiling on his face.

"Yes, what are your brother's toys like, come and find them for you?"

"Don't dare to bother your lords," Uka turned and gestured at the samurai, taking the opportunity to escape from his palm, "My brother is a toy and a wooden carved figure, worthless, how dare I delay your lord's business because of this little thing?" ”

The samurai laughed, and the leading samurai didn't embarrass Uka anymore, but just patted him on the shoulder vigorously and said, "Yes."

Polite child, then you can continue to look for it. ”

After saying that, the samurai skipped Uka and re-embarked on the patrol route, Uka breathed a sigh of relief, the moment the samurai left, cold sweat immediately soaked his thin short coat, Uka became cautious this time, and did not dare to stare directly at that side, but dared to turn his head to look after carefully making sure that there was no one around, and then immediately looked away.

Uka bent down, picked up the little wooden figure stuck in the mud, wiped the mud stains off it little by little with his hands, and then gently said "I'm sorry" to the wooden figure.

As soon as he said the first words to the samurai, he quietly threw the wooden figure to the ground, finding a good way out for himself. He originally planned to find an opportunity for the samurai to discover the wooden man, and then take advantage of the situation to praise the samurai, so that he could probably get out, but he didn't expect that the samurai didn't embarrass himself, which saved him a later play.

In fact, after stepping on the spot in the past few days, Uka probably figured out the time and frequency of these people's patrols.

In front of this one-mile radius, there are five teams of five people patrolling, going back and forth every other stick of incense, and there is almost no gap in the middle, but it is only almost.

For example, now, it was the gap of their patrol, and in the next ten breaths or so, there would be no patrolling samurai here, so Uka immediately trotted up, and as he ran, he turned his head to look around, making sure that the timing of his capture was not wrong. After making sure that there was no one around, he immediately ran wildly, crossed the street, and burrowed into an uninhabited alley.

No samurai would enter this alley, and although the entrance and exit of the alley would be passed by from time to time, as long as you came here, you would not be far from your destination in Uka. Walking out of this alley, even if you enter the small circle where Uka lived before, there are low huts next to each other, and there are countless gaps in the middle alleys, which is the best hiding place for a skinny child like Ukka.

He came here to find out what else to eat at home, and then bring it back with him, for so many days he was only taking care of the old man Feng, and of course he didn't want to be like this all the time, so driven by his pride, he decided to venture home.

Why is it said to be an adventure? Because Lin Fenglei ordered everyone to move out of there, naturally they were not allowed to go back, and the samurai patrolling the streets were not only to ensure the safety of the villagers, to ensure that no Fenglei Village's fine work would be mixed in, but also to monitor those unconscious villagers, and not let them go back at will.

As soon as a pair of patrolling warriors passed through the alley, Uka immediately got up, ran lightly to the alley, looked back and forth, and when he was sure that it was safe, he ran and plunged into the dense low hut in front of him, and he skillfully walked through the gap between the two houses that were three feet long, or even only two feet wide, and walked quickly without making a sound, like a fish swimming in the water. Occasionally, when he encountered a patrolling samurai, Ukka's speed slowed down, and when the samurai left, he picked up his pace again.

At last, after turning one bend after another, he came to the outside of his dilapidated hut, and when there was no one around, he opened the window and climbed straight into the house.

But I didn't expect that when I landed, my feet slipped and knocked over an empty jar, which made a lot of noise, Wuka broke out in a cold sweat, and couldn't help but say silently in my heart: "Don't hear it, don't hear it......"

Unfortunately, someone heard it.

"Did you hear that? There seems to be a noise in that room?! ”
