Chapter VII The Granary

Wow~!

Uncle Liu's shouting ended, and the villagers in the main alleyway were in an uproar.

Many villagers were tempted by the five baked cakes and signed up to join the search team.

Meng Chen was surprised in his heart: "Why did the search team recruit a hundred people this time and give a reward of five baked cakes?" There must be something wrong with this! ”

Shi didn't think so much, and said with a happy face: "Meng Chen, are you going?" Five baked cakes, enough to eat for three days! I must go this time! ”

After speaking, the stone impatiently squeezed towards Uncle Liu's location.

Meng Chen shook his head helplessly and shouted, "Stone, wait for me!" ”

With the vigorous development of the stone, the two finally caught the last train and signed up to join the search team.

Everyone followed Uncle Liu into the branch roadway and came to the entrance and exit of the mine, and the old village chief was already waiting aside.

Uh-huh~!

After coughing, the old village chief said to everyone: "The reason why so many people have been gathered today is because this search team needs to go to the granary in the south of the village and transport the grain there to the mine!" ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately became a mess, and many people shouted:

"Old village chief, no! It's too dangerous to the south! ”

"That's right! There was a dormant beast there, and the last time it carried food, a lot of people died! ”

"If we go to the granary, we won't go! We're quitting! ”

"That's right! Quit! ”

After hearing the content of everyone's shouting, Meng Chen brushed his back in a cold sweat, and scolded secretly: "There is a fierce beast in the south of the village, why don't I know? ”

Meng Chen whispered to the stone and asked, "Shi, there is a fierce beast in the south of the village, why didn't you tell me?" ”

The stone touched his head and replied, "No?" I remember telling you that the south side of the village is a restricted area, and search parties don't usually get close to it. ”

"......" Meng Chen was speechless.

"Be quiet! Listen to me, Liu Zhi went to the granary two days ago, and the dormant beast has left, so you don't have to worry about encountering danger. And, this time I'll go with the guys, don't you believe me? The old village chief said loudly.

With the pacification of the old village chief, the mood of the crowd gradually calmed down, and there were no more fierce protests.

The old village chief continued to speak: "It is safe to carry grain this time! Of course, if anyone still wants to quit, they can also bring it up. ”

After everyone looked at each other a few times, no one chose to quit.

This time, the old village chief personally led the team, so there should be no danger, and Meng Chen naturally did not quit.

Moreover......

"This time I'm going to the granary, maybe I can fill up the food resources at one time!" This was Meng Chen's idea.

The old village chief commanded several strong men to push away the boulders blocking the entrances and exits, and everyone left the mine one after another.

This time, the search team was quite large, in addition to the hundred villagers who had been temporarily recruited, there were also thirty young men with weapons.

Due to the large number of people in the team, the scattered beasts encountered on the way did not dare to come and harass them at all.

More than an hour later, everyone arrived safely at the entrance of Tieshi Village.

The old village chief said to Uncle Liu: "Liu Zhi, you take two people with you, and then go to the granary to confirm the situation." ”

Liu Zhi nodded, took two good hands, and ran towards the south of the village.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Liu Zhi returned to the entrance of the village with the two of them, nodded at the old village chief, and said, "Village chief, no problem!" The beast is gone! ”

When everyone heard this, their faces were overjoyed, and they whispered, "Great! There are more than 200 stone of grain in the granary, enough for us to last until the end of the evil moon period! ”

The old village chief said in a deep voice: "We must hurry up and strive to transport all the grain in the granary back to the mine this time." ”

"Okay! Chief! The crowd responded.

Under the leadership of the old village chief and Liu Zhi, everyone soon came to the granary in the south of the village.

Looking at the slightly damaged granary, as well as the dark red blood stains all over the place, Meng Chen secretly said in his heart: "The target of the search team's first outing must be this granary. As a result, he was unlucky enough to encounter a dormant beast, and even more unfortunate was to wake up the beast. ”

After entering the granary, Meng Chen immediately saw a huge wooden trough ten meters square, which was full of white grains.

When the old village chief arranged the division of labor, Meng Chen took the initiative to take over the work of bagging grain.

Standing on the wooden ladder, when Meng Chen looked down at the huge amount of grain close at hand, how could others know the ecstasy in his heart?

"Meng Chen, hurry up! Everyone else is getting started! The stone behind him urged.

"Oh! Good! Meng Chen hurriedly responded.

Subsequently, Meng Chen took the opportunity to rub back and forth on the surface of the grain while filling the bag with grain.

Swish! Swish! Swish......

When the number of frictions reached ten times, a message popped up in the light curtain in Meng Chen's mind, "Silver Coin -1, Food +100!" ”

Seeing this information, Meng Chen couldn't help but grin.

"Meng Chen, you're so slow! Do you want me to come? Stone grumbled.

"Don't, don't! It's already loaded! Here you go! Meng Chen hurriedly handed the bag full of grain in his hand to the stone who was waiting a little impatiently.

In order to avoid being too conspicuous, Meng Chen would take the opportunity to pick up 100 units every time he filled a bag of grain.

As Meng Chen masturbated more and more, the food around him dropped rapidly, but fortunately, everyone else was busy with work and didn't notice the strangeness on Meng Chen's side.

When Meng Chen filled the thirty-ninth bag of grain, there was not much grain left in the huge wooden trough, and Meng Chen could only stop the small action of secretly picking up "wool".

After all, the risk of being found out is too great to be worth it!

It didn't take long for all the grain in the granary to be packed into bags.

Meng Chen walked down the wooden ladder with a happy face, and said secretly in his heart: "In less than an hour, 3,900 units of grain will be harvested, don't be too cool!" ”

After counting the approximate amount of grain, Uncle Liu came to the old village chief and said softly: "Village chief, the grain in the granary is filled with a total of four hundred and thirty-six bags, each bag is about half a stone, and the total amount should be about two hundred and twenty stones. ”

The old village chief frowned slightly, and muttered softly: "The number is a little wrong!" The grain in this granary is at least two hundred and sixty stones, and now it is only two hundred and twenty stones, how can there be such a difference? ”

The old village chief, who couldn't figure it out for a while, could only order: "Let everyone carry the food on their backs and leave Tieshi Village quickly, I always have a bad feeling in my heart!" ”

When Uncle Liu heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay!" Chief! ”

Under Uncle Liu's organization, everyone carried three or four bags of grain and quickly left Tieshi Village.

Carrying 60 kilograms of grain on his back had already made Meng Chen miserable, but now he was asked to carry 150 kilograms of grain, which was simply killing him.

Fortunately, Shi saw Meng Chen's faltering steps and helped Meng Chen carry a bag of grain, which lightened Meng Chen's burden a lot.

Meng Chen carried 100 kilograms of grain on his back, crossed the mountains and mountains for 20 kilometers, and when he returned to the mine, his waist was about to break from exhaustion!
