Wang Renjie and the others saw that the homeless people had stopped besieging them, so they did not continue to cut and kill. They came to Li Yan's surroundings and protected Li Yan in the middle.

"Are there any injuries?" Li Yan asked.

The soldiers checked each other, and replied loudly: "No, it's all right." ”

Li Yan originally wanted to take a look quietly, but he didn't expect to be besieged by the homeless people by Wu Niang's exclamation. He came to Wu Niang, who was sitting on the ground, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Wu Niang's face turned pale and murmured: "Eat people, they eat children." ”

Li Yan slapped Wu Niang's face a few times and said loudly: "Wake up, wake up." ”

Wu Niang came to her senses at this time, she got up from the ground and kept saying, "Go, go back to the city, go back quickly, it's terrible." "But I can't stand on my feet at all, and if I take a step, I have to fall again. Fortunately, Li Yan was next to her, picked her up horizontally, went all the way to the official road, and put her in the carriage.

Fortunately, the homeless people did not rush to the official road, otherwise the carriage and the coachman would be in danger. However, the coachman was still very scared, and said in pieces: "Oh mom, it's too scary, I can't go out of the city in the future, it's too scary." ”

On the way back to the city, Wu Niang kept sticking her head out of the window of the carriage and vomiting until she couldn't even vomit sour water.

And Wang Renjie and the others are all strained and have a heavy mood. They have also escaped famine, and they have also been outcasts. They were lucky not to be so miserable as to eat people to survive. They also cherish their current life more and more, at least their family has land to plant, and they have them to protect the safety and tranquility of their family, and there is nothing happier than a stable life.

They returned to the inn, the soldiers went to bathe and feed the horses, and Li Yan asked people to go to the pawnshop to get clothes.

And Wu Niang staggered back to the room alone, lying on the bed and not wanting to move anymore. The sight she saw was so horrible that she never knew that there would be people eating people, especially children.

She is now thinking about whether to listen to Li Yan or stay in Kaifeng City. It's horrible out there, what if something like this happens to her? Eaten? Or do you want to eat people too?

After Li Yan waited for Wang Renjie to get his clothes back, he changed his clothes and went home.

He kept walking around the alley on the road, observing the situation behind him. After he had been gone for half an hour, he did not find anyone following, so he went to the house.

"Father," Li Yan asked after asking for peace, "what is the matter with you asking me to come?" ”

Li Chunyu didn't answer, but asked, "Have you dealt with your affairs clearly?" ”

Li Yan knew that this was about patrolling the yamen, and since his father asked so, he must have sent someone to pay attention to his movements, maybe there were also people from the Li Mansion among the people who were watching. So he replied: "It's all dealt with, and the case has been closed." ”

Li Chunyu nodded at this time and said, "Be careful in the future!" Don't leave anything behind! ”

"What my father said is ~" Li Yan asked suspiciously.

Li Chunyu said: "Such a big thing, the whole Kaifeng knows about it, Li Gongzi of Qi County murdered him for money and killed the head of the palace!" As I said, I don't care what you do, but you can't cause trouble at home! ”

Li Yan said guiltily: "The child made his father worried. But my father can rest assured that this time he went to patrol the yamen to deal with this matter, and the case has been closed. It was the homeless man's false accusation, and the palace no longer pursued it. ”

"Humph! Falsely accused?! Li Chunyu snorted coldly and said, "If I hadn't dealt with that yellow ertou, you would have waited to be Ling Chi now!" ”

"Huh? Did someone really come out and denounce it? Li Yan asked in surprise.

"No wind, no waves!" Li Chunyu said: "So you should be more meticulous in your work in the future, don't leave such a big head and tail!" Let us be afraid! ”

Li Yan knelt down and said sincerely: "Please rest assured father, the child will be careful in the future, and he will not let the family worry about it anymore." ”

"It's good to know!" Li Chunyu reprimanded with a straight face: "Get up!" ”

"What about the yellow two-header? What did you do? Li Yan asked with concern.

Li Chunyu said lightly: "Burn it." ”

"Burn it?" Li Yan asked in surprise, "Won't there be any problems?" ”

Li Chunyu said: "Our Li family has been in Kaifeng for three generations, and there is no problem with this matter, you can rest assured." I called you here this time, and there is one more thing, the master from Fujian has arrived, so you can bring it back. ”

"The master who planted the taro? That's great! When Li Yan heard that the master who planted potatoes was coming, he said happily: "Where?" I'll go see him. ”

That's the best news ever. Last winter was cold but hardly snowed, and people said that this year's winter wheat harvest will not be good. If they wait for the winter wheat harvest to be harvested before planting potatoes, with the high yield of potatoes, their food and development this year should be guaranteed.

Li Chunyu asked people to invite a master from Fujian, and he also brought a translator. The potato grower doesn't speak official language, he speaks the local language, and if there is no translator, there is no way to communicate.

The potato planter's surname is Ma, and Master Ma said that they planted potatoes there in September and October, and harvested in January and February of the following year, but they don't know when they will be planted here in Henan. In other words, not only is the yield not guaranteed, but even whether or not you can grow is a problem. This is a completely new experiment, and there is no experience to draw on.

Li Yan looked at the soil brought by Master Ma again, the largest one was not as big as a fist, basically about half a fist, round or oval. Li Yan finally knew why it was called a potato, this is the beans that grow in the soil.

Although there are some disappointments, something is better than nothing, as long as you can try it successfully, then you can solve the big problem.

After Li Yan saw Master Ma, as soon as he returned to the back house, he saw Chen and Kong waiting at the door. As soon as they saw him, both of them came out and pulled him to look left and right, as if they were afraid that something was missing.

"Master, are you alright?" Chen asked nervously: "It is rumored all over the city that 'Li Gongzi of Qixian County' killed the head of the palace, and we are all terrified." "Others don't know, but his family still knows, this 'Li Gongzi of Qixian County' is talking about him.

"It's okay, it's all settled, you don't have to worry."

"Thank you Bodhisattva bless, thank you Bodhisattva bless." Chen hurriedly folded his hands and thanked him reverently. After that, he said to Li Yan: "I made a wish in front of the Bodhisattva, if the master can be safe, I will eat a long fast for a year and copy the scriptures a hundred times." The concubine is about to repay her vows, so I won't accompany you. After speaking, he hurried to the Buddha hall.

When Chen left, Kong said: "I asked Yuan Bin to bless me, I'm going to report to Yuan Bin and say that you're fine." Yuan Bin is really a filial child. Kong didn't say hello to Li Yan, and left talking to himself.

Only Li Yan sighed helplessly in the room.
