Chapter 42: Embarking on the Official Road
"Dazhu, I didn't expect you to look honest and honest, and you have learned to deceive people." Xiao Yingniang laughed while eating dinner, and made fun of the big pillar.
"That's... That's a real fish," Dazhu hurriedly declared, "I don't believe you asked Zhiwen, Zhiwen, you saw it all, right?" ”
"Yes, there are fish," Zhiwen couldn't help laughing, "Just two, not enough to stuff your teeth." ”
"I... I didn't say I could eat it. Dazhu muttered to himself.
Hehe, it's not enough to stuff your teeth now, and in a few months it will surprise you. Zhiwen thought to himself.
That's right, those two small fish, no, to be precise, should be fry, have been quickly put into the system's fish pond by Zhiwen when washing vegetables, and now they are swimming happily.
Zhiwen was very satisfied today, dug up the yam, there was something to plant in that vacant land, and found fish fry, and the fish pond finally came in handy.
......
Qingming has not yet arrived, the sun is hot overhead, it still hurts a little on people's bodies, sweat is dripping down the top of their heads, everyone's faces are covered with white salt marks and gray stains, and the clothes on their bodies are also wet and dry, dry and wet.
"Let's go and take a break on the side of the road and drink some water." Zhiwen suggests.
"Where is the water? Zhiwen. Aunt Song asked in a low voice.
"yes, didn't you just finish drinking it all?" Dazhu also said in a suppressed voice.
Zhiwen didn't speak, went down the official road forward, found a bush far away and sat down, saw that there was no one on the road, and took out the water bladder that had long been filled with water in the fish pond and handed it to everyone.
Although this fish pond has been raised, it does not affect the taste of the water at all, and it does not need to be boiled, just drink it directly.
Everyone secretly took the water bladder, like a thief to hide and drink, this big sun under the hurry, no water to catch it is really not good, I didn't see a few groups of people before and after can't stand it, dare not continue to walk, a few older people are dizzy.
This water was drunk earlier, and now it must have been conjured by Zhiwen with his magical spell, and everyone knew it in their hearts.
Originally, Zhiwen changed the water out several times a day, if he found the water, and when the water did not change, he thought that his spell had a limit, but he didn't expect it to be very hot today, and the water he found yesterday was drunk, and before the hour came, Zhiwen turned into water again, and everyone was secretly happy in their hearts.
"Zhiwen, why don't we get up early and hurry up in the future, and we will rest when the sun is big at noon?" Xiao Yingniang suggested.
"Okay." Zhiwen is not in a hurry now, the road to the Yellow River is not long, and he can't break his body in order to hurry.
Zhiwen knew that it was too early to flee now, they had been walking on the official road for a few days, and the number of people was indeed a lot more than before Shangguan Dao, but there was no such rolling crowd as Zhiwen imagined.
Are there more people who stick to their hometowns and don't want to flee? Or is the fleeing army still behind and not catching up? Zhiwen didn't understand it all at once.
But the atmosphere is no longer as friendly as before, this person is more, the average amount of wild vegetables to each person's head is less, it turns out that you give me a bundle, I also give you a few handfuls of the scene can never be seen again, your own family is not enough to eat, what to give?
If you find a water source, you can still queue up to fetch water in a regular manner, but quarrels are unavoidable, and the phenomenon of getting together to talk about parents is gone.
After escaping the midday sun, taking advantage of the cool and the breeze, and after a short drive, after someone found a water source, everyone stopped one after another, set up a shack nearby, and prepared to spend the night here.
Zhiwen and they are also like other families, after the shack is built, Dazhu and Xiaojie will go to fetch water as usual.
Originally, Zhiwen also went to fetch water together, but since he walked on the official road, there are many fewer wild vegetables that can be found, there is not enough to eat at all, and the water source is sometimes not found.
If he found a water source nearby, after setting up a shack, he took Nannan, Xiaoying and Niuniu to pretend to go around in a circle, dig a few pits, cut a few handfuls of weeds, and cover them with yams and alfalfa that were just enough for his group of seven to eat.
The brown-red field where the yam was planted was upgraded to an effect that Zhiwen had unexpected, and in one month, in just one month, two thousand kilograms of yam were harvested.
It was taken out of the warehouse and clean, there was no mud at all, and there was no need to wash it, so Zhiwen had to cover it with weeds.
If he didn't find a water source, then Zhiwen would hide in a shack and use the processing workshop to get some cooked food out and distribute it to everyone.
During this time, they didn't even dare to make soup, there was no way, the alfalfa soup was too fragrant, and now whether it is cooking by themselves or making it in the processing workshop, Zhiwen is to mix alfalfa and yam together, add a small amount of sorghum flour and wheat noodles, and add any wild vegetables if they really dig up, and make them into ordinary wild vegetable cakes, and anyone who sees them will not have any doubts.
However, the seemingly simple wild vegetable cake, the nutrition is not bad at all, everyone rushes during the day, digs wild vegetables, fetches water, cooks, and takes turns to be on duty at night, practicing martial arts, and the body has not collapsed at all.
Dazhu's thin figure in the village has grown back, and the dundun is solid, so that Zhiwen began to wonder if he should starve him for two days and let him lose weight, which is a little conspicuous.
Xiao Yingniang's night blindness is completely cured, and there is no obstacle to seeing things at night, otherwise she would not have proposed to get up early and rush to the road again, knowing that it was not dawn at that time.
When Zhiwen and Nan Nan returned to the shack with a few wild vegetables they had dug up, as well as yams and alfalfa under the weeds, Da Zhu and Xiao Jie had already returned to the shack, and four buckets full of water were quietly placed on the ground, and the two were chatting with Xiao Yingniang.
Recently, this internal strength cultivation has achieved great results, and before they walked on the official road, they were still a little struggling to carry two buckets full of water, but now it is as if they have no weight, and they will not spill out at all, and in terms of strength alone, adult men are not comparable to them.
"Huh? How can you fetch water so fast today? "Zhiwen is a little strange, they used to dig wild vegetables and came back first, it was just a show, and it didn't take long.
And they fetch water is different, they have to wait in line slowly, sometimes the amount of water is small, and they have to wait for a while to receive a bucket of water, not to mention that the order of fetching water has long been not as good as before, and there are occasionally people who rely on their height and strength to cut in line, and then there are quarrels, bulls, and more delays.
These are all from Da Zhu and Xiao Jie, and they should not have staged a full martial arts before, anyway, they haven't seen them suffer, so Zhiwen doesn't bother to care.
"Well, there's quite a lot of water in the ditch today," Dazhu replied.
"There are still a few people who maintain order, tall and strong, and no one dares to cut in line." Xiao Jie was careful and said something different from before.
"Oh? Is there anyone else doing Lei Feng? Zhiwen didn't believe anyone was so kind.
"Lei Feng? Who is Lei Feng? Xiao Jie looked dazed.
"Uh, don't worry about the details." Zhiwen replied, "Didn't these people who maintain order embarrass people? ”
"No," Xiao Jie shook his head, "Actually, they started doing this a few days ago, but there was less water, so Dazhu and I came back late." ”
