The weather is getting hotter and hotter, not only in Peach Blossom Village, but also in the fields within a radius of thousands of miles, most of them have dried up and cracked at this time, and the river that Ye Hao once fell into is much smaller and shallower, and you can see it at a glance.

It's June now, and how many farmers are looking forward to God opening their eyes and raining, but every day is full of sunshine and clear skies, where is there a hint of rain?

The price of food in the town has risen again, and there are more people who cannot afford to eat food.

Because of the lack of rain, even the wild vegetables in the field did not grow very well, and the wilted ones looked obviously stunted.

Peach Blossom Village is backed by mountains, and when there is no food, you can go up the mountain to find something to eat and come back, but other places are uncomfortable.

Although the imperial court has exempted this year's taxes, it is useless!

In the past, although many families saved some money, they could not last much time when they spent all the food they bought.

In such a day after day of suffering, the news that there was food in Taohua Village and a lot of food suddenly spread far away.

"Have you heard? In Peach Blossom Village, which is hundreds of miles away from us, there is a lot of food! ”

In a poor and dilapidated village, several yellow-skinned, ragged men leaned against the shadows in the corner, and one of them pursed his chapped lips and said suddenly.

"I heard that we didn't harvest any grain this year, but they have collected a lot of it anywhere!" The other immediately answered.

A person next to him said weakly: "What does it have to do with us?" Even if they have more food, we won't be able to eat it. ”

"My family's food was eaten two days ago, we might as well think about where we can get food, if this continues, my family will really starve to death!"

As soon as these words came out, several people on the other side immediately chimed in: "Yes, yes, I can't even bring back many wild vegetables when I go out these days!" ”

"What can be eaten in the field, no matter what it is, is almost eaten, if there is no food again.... Alas...," the man sighed deeply, his face full of despair.

"It's all because of those profiteers in the town, the family finally saved a few hundred dollars, but they can only buy a few buckets of brown rice, even if they save money."

"Now that they've eaten up, what do you think we're going to do next, we can't just watch the whole family starve to death, right?" The man who spoke first said again.

Several people around him were silent for a few moments, and one of them thought of something, and his face suddenly showed a trace of ruthlessness: "This damn world." ”

"Since they won't let us live, it's better to rob him, even if it is death, we must be a full ghost!"

Another asked, "Rob whom?" You're not trying to rob the town's businesses, are you? You can save it, don't you see, there are capable people standing behind everyone, and the little family is guarding the door, how can you rob it? ”

"So what do you say? Is it just staring and waiting for death? ”

"Hey, I heard that the Zhou family in the town wants to buy the land, if it really can't last, we can only sell the land!"

"Whew! Still selling land? I went to ask yesterday, do you know how much silver the Zhou family gives for an acre of land? Only one or two! ”

"If he gives four or five taels, I will grit my teeth and sell one acre, and the grain I bought may last until it rains, but he only gave such a little silver."

"How many acres of land do we have at home? At most, it's only four or five acres, and if it's all sold, it can survive this formation, but what about it? ”

"Aren't you going to starve to death yet? Sooner or later, I would rather die early than let that black-hearted Zhou family succeed! ”

When the man on the side heard this, he immediately agreed: "That's right! Even if we sell the land, we must not sell it to the black-hearted Zhou family! ”

The scene fell silent again, and no one spoke for a long time.

Until one of them, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Why don't we go to that Peach Blossom Village to have a look?" What if you can find something to eat? ”

The others looked at each other for a few breaths, gritted their teeth and nodded: "Then go and see, it's better than the whole family starving to death!" ”

"But we don't have any food in our hands, so how can we hold on?" A man next to him asked.

The other hesitated for a few moments before saying, "I.... I still have a few vegetable dumplings at home, let's save a little, and if we look for something to eat on the way, we can barely make it to the place. ”

The spirits of several people on the side immediately perked up: "Wow, Liao Laosan, I didn't expect you to still have a hidden hand." ”

"Ahem, I still have a handful of brown rice left at home, I'll bring it, and I'll be able to mix it up on the road when the time comes." I heard the other person cough twice, and said a little embarrassed.

The other people glanced at each other, okay, the feeling is that there is really no food at home.

"Then it's decided, everyone will go back and pack up today, and tomorrow morning, let's go!"

Similar situations to this village are constantly being staged in the surrounding area, but the people's minds are mixed, some honestly just want to stutter, and some are impure.

It's just two days of work, and the people in Peach Blossom Village suddenly feel that there are more people nearby.

"Hey, do you think we've got a lot of new faces here?"

"yes, yes, I didn't have anything in the first few days, but it's suddenly more these days!"

"I also found out that I didn't dare to let the baby go out these days, who knows if those people are good or bad? One is not good, if something happens to the baby, my heart is not like being stripped of someone? ”

"Fortunately, Uncle Zhang was prescient, there have been people patrolling the village, and those people didn't dare to go too far!"

"This is the credit of Uncle Zhang, obviously she is smart, but seriously, I can't sleep well now, I'm afraid that someone will suddenly come in the courtyard!"

"It's not what I'm talking about, I can't sleep well at home these days!"

"Alas, when is this disaster a head......"

While the women of the village were saying this, several men gathered at the foot of the hill outside the village, and they were also talking.

"It's not a way to go on like this, we've been looking in the mountains for several days, and the food we find still can't fill our stomachs!"

"That's right, I look at the Peach Blossom Village below, but it's rich, and the smell of rice wafting every time I eat is really torturous!"

"I didn't see them share a little bit of us, the day before yesterday I said all the good things to a family, but they just didn't let go, saying that they didn't have much food in their own homes!"

"Whew! No matter how few of them are, they are better than us! How many days have we been hungry? If you don't get something to eat, you're going to starve to death! ”

"I think we might as well rob them of their food! Anyway, I can top it for a while! ”

"Didn't you see the men patrolling the village? With just a few of us, how can we fight? ”

"It's definitely not enough to rely on a few of us, but I'll look at ......"
