Chapter 15: Saving Lives
"Brother Wu, why don't we take a break. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info "The second man realized that Wu Yi's steps were heavy, like a sledgehammer, his injuries were not healed, and he was negligent.
"Bastard, Lao Tzu is not as useless as you think, your uncle, I can beat you now." Wu Yi scolded, and at the same time secretly hated that his body was not angry, and he almost collapsed with such a small injury.
In the woods on the edge of the field to the north, the two of them finally arrived at the place, Wu Yi sat on the ground and gasped, and asked the two men to get some hay or something, and smoke these bees, otherwise they would both have to become pigs' heads.
"Brother Wu, you will have a lot." The second boy was still puzzled, but now he knows the benefits, but this kid can't climb trees, this pine tree is very high, and the honeycomb on the ground can't reach it.
Wu Yi felt ashamed, such a big child can't climb a tree, he grabbed two handfuls of long grass, made a rope, and then climbed up, but he felt that his arm was weak, and he wrapped it tightly in his hand.
The rope is broken, it's not high, but it's going to kill Wuyi, he is injured now, but he didn't expect to correct his spine by mistake, although the pain in his chest is to death, but the whole person is completely relaxed.
This time he got a strong rope, climbed up easily, stabbed and smashed, and finally got the honeycomb.
He also found two bird eggs, which he did not eat, and kept them for the child later.
Bird's eggs fried wild leeks, honey water, these can help eliminate foreign bodies, but also lubricate the intestines, the three small children, all wide-eyed, sucking the water and eating.
Wu Yi is also relieved, he is now like walking on a rope, he has to work hard to maintain it, and he can't let this rope break, so that he can maintain his fighting spirit, the rope is these people behind him, his beliefs are here.
Wu Yi called Wu Hu and Er Yanzi over, and now they must do something, otherwise no one can say whether they can survive this winter.
"Now Xia Cripple has a lot of people there, I heard that he wants to cast cannons, but he gives too little, so he can only make do with two people, there are two hundred people in our village, but there are only more than 60 strong laborers." The second man scratched his head, and Brother Wu let them think for themselves, but it hurt his little brain, which obviously didn't work.
"Otherwise, let's hunt, I heard that it will be sent to Ningwu Mansion, and the prey is valuable." Wu Hu is also total, this is also a way out, and there is no need to look at Xia Cripple's face.
Wu Yi looked at the two children, both of whom were children of the people's households, and their vision was not big, but this could be transformed, if they didn't think about it, they could only be like their parents, Wu Yi wanted them to think for themselves, and they should be able to use their own brains.
"Otherwise, let's go and become soldiers, I heard that there are still two taels of military salaries in January." Wu Hu continued, he knew that this Wuyi had great ability, and if he became a soldier, it would definitely be a way out, and if he became a general in the future, he would be glorious.
"But my father said that good men are not soldiers, and they only go if they are splashed and broken." The second man began to object, if he changed the military household, who knows what it would be, anyway, the group of soldiers in the water fort are not as good as them.
Both of them had sad faces, looking at Wu Yi from time to time, knowing that this powerful Brother Wu must have a way, but they didn't say it, but let them think about it.
"You go back first, continue to think, don't go to work tomorrow, come with me." Wu Yi dispersed the two of them, and then he didn't go back, he needed to go and see the food tonight, and he didn't want to be empty tomorrow, and after having this food, his plan was much easier, and more importantly, he had food to eat.
The night is dark and the wind is high, Wu Yi is not walking fast, fortunately, after falling from the tree, his bones are also correct, and his physical strength has recovered a lot, he is also very careful, not to mention the beasts at night, he doesn't want to be discovered, this food will definitely make people red-eyed crazy, this is also a problem he has been considering.
When he arrived at the place, he deliberately went around in a circle, just for fear of leaving traces, and when he saw that the food was there, he almost cried, he hadn't eaten a good meal for many days.
When they saw the white flour, both women's eyes widened in disbelief.
"I want to eat." Wang Li'er can't wait to eat it raw, it's all vegetable cakes these days, and she's going to vomit.
Wu Xiaoniang grabbed her, hit her, and then pressed the flour, she asked worriedly: "You say, where did this come from?" Did you steal it? Don't you dare to do this, even if we eat chaff vegetables, as long as we are safe. "Wu Xiaoniang is really scared, it's only been a long time, so many things have happened, this family wants him to bear it, but nothing can happen.
Wang Li'er didn't look at the flour anymore, and looked at Wuyi with a blank eye, which made Wuyi's heart warm, at this moment he really wanted to hide the grain, and then live a small life.
"Don't worry, I got it for a pheasant." Wu Yi said with a smile, reassuring the two women, especially Wu Xiaoniang, this woman is a good wife and mother, Wu Yi stared at her.
"Then hurry up, there are still wild vegetables, make some vegetable porridge." Wu Xiaoniang carefully grabbed half of the handful, and sprinkled it back, this was their hope.
Wu Yi smiled and grabbed her hand, "No, eat comprehensive, I'll figure it out tomorrow." ā
"Nope." Wu Xiaoniang immediately glared at her.
"Eat, I have to eat something good now, otherwise, how can I heal my injury." Wu Yi handed over the white face to Wang Li'er, Wu Xiaoniang was about to snatch it back, but was blocked by Wuyi, Wu Xiaoniang's strength was not small, she was hugged by Wuyi, and then her body was also weak.
Wu Yi was still afraid that she would be angry, so he tightened it and let go.
Wu Xiaoniang glared at him fiercely, and she didn't know why
His behavior as a loser is still because of his rude behavior.
Wang Li'er didn't dare to really make all white noodles, just half vegetables and half noodles, but there was no pot at home, otherwise she would make pancakes, it must be fragrant, she actually wanted to go to the house to make it, she had a pot at home, and she could do it a few points, she immediately blushed, she couldn't do this, she would be beaten by her husband's family.
"How's the Sanyazi?" Wu Yi asked, also squatting down.
"Pull it out, thanks to you." Wang Li'er was really grateful to him, and hurriedly added firewood, and the fire should be red.
Then Wu Yi took the rest of the grain away in the name of watching the three gentlemen, Wu Xiaoniang didn't care, but Wang Li'er blocked it and was pushed aside by Wu Yi.
Wuyi is also the first time to enter the Wang family's house, and it is also the first time to visit the door, Wang Mian is also a little surprised, his family is not much bigger than Wu Xiao's mother's house, the north and south two pans of kang, there is no place to stay, the second and third sons are asleep, this time Wang Mian filled a bag of cigarettes for Wuyi, the small pipe is very delicate, and the play is very smooth.
"Ahem......" Wuyi really can't get used to smoking this dry tobacco, just one word, rush.
"I couldn't get used to it at first." Wang Mian smiled.
Subsequently, Wu Yi also knew that the tobacco was still planted by himself, but it was only a few, and the government did not allow it to be planted, which hurt the field.
Wu Yi also said goodbye, this time there was an extra tobacco, so that he also had a little more plan, it seems that he has to plan well, because he has thought of a lot, this plan may be crazy.
The family meal is also good, Wu Xiaoniang also added some propolis to the paste, this is the leftover, today is the New Year.
In the middle of the night, Shangshui Village exploded again, the heart-rending cries of the girls tore the tranquility, Fuzi's mother came in disheveled, and knocked on Wuyi's door, Fuzi's child is no good.
A large circle of villagers watched silently.
"Didn't you get all the children?" Wu Yi looked at Wang Mian and asked angrily.
Wang Mian squatted and didn't say anything, just held it there, everyone was silent, Fuzi, this child is not much older than the three sons, and now it is not good, even if there are ready-made leeks and honey.
"I really don't know, I really don't know, I don't know if this kid can't do it......" Fu Zi Niang shouted, and everyone else sighed.
Fu Ziniang cried darkly, and his man was also stuffy there like Wang Mian, and the child was gone.
Wu Yi suddenly smashed his fist on the door frame, his eyes looked at the people around him fiercely, and scared them back, Wu Yi's eyes were red, he was used to seeing life and death, but this time this child also touched him, even if he had only seen it a few times, but this child should not die, he seemed to hear the cool words of the day again.
"You are all cold and ruthless, well, you are all like this, I will tell you, I see how many people will die." Wu Yi said angrily, he walked back without looking back, he tried hard, but it was really not enough, he found that he couldn't carry this burden alone, if he wanted to hold on, everyone had to work together.
Numbness, this is their sadness, indifference, is the poison of their suicide, and Wuyi found that food may not necessarily save their lives.
The death of a child also crushed the hearts of the people in Sheung Shui Village to the lowest.
"Brother Wu, my father didn't know that the kid also ate soil, and when the three of them ate, they didn't see the rich son." The second gentleman said cautiously.
Wu Yi didn't speak, he just felt very weak now, just like when he was injured.
The next morning, Wu Yi came out again and found that many people were on the street, and no one dared to look him in the eyes, and the second son and Wu Hu also came over.
A flower-like old lady cried silently there, muttering: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, it should be me who should be damned." "This is Fuzi's grandmother, the old man wanted to leave a way for his family to live, so he ate the soil, but he didn't expect that it was the child who died, and he regretted it.
"Brother Wu, where are we going today?" Wu Hu asked.
Wu Yi suddenly turned around and went back, he didn't want to go out yet, it wasn't that he was ruthless, it was forced by this world.
