Thirteen days later, more than 1,000 trees were piled up on the village dirt field, like a hill. Recently, many families have lost chickens, and even Xu Kaigui's neighbor Xu Dahou's piglets are missing three, and her daughter-in-law has stood at the entrance of the village and scolded the street for several days, not knowing whether she is scolding people or wild boars and wolves. Some people may have been a little dismissive of the idea of building a wooden wall at first, but no one doubts the need to build a wooden wall anymore.

After October, the village chief organized people to start building a wooden wall. This time, there was no need to mobilize much, they were all very active, especially the families living at the edge of the village, who not only came the first to come every day, but even called those who did not come. Building a wooden wall may not be that tiring, but it's not easy at all. The tree is round and easy to roll, and it takes a lot of rattan rope to tie the three trees together, and it has to be tied very tightly.

But by December, the wooden wall around the village had been erected, and everyone was happy. The wooden walls were about as tall as a man, and although there were many gaps in the walls, they didn't look solid, but the larger beasts wouldn't be able to get in.

At the beginning of December, the people in the village heard the bad news that there was a plague in several villages and towns further north of Jinhua City, and many people died, including chickens. Lu Yu didn't know why dead people would also die chickens, and some people who knew explained that the plague was passed on from chickens to people. However, the people who raised chickens in the vicinity were a little panicked, some people were afraid that their chickens would get sick, and some people were worried that the government would let the people slaughter their chickens, but not many people were really worried that chicken plague would spread to people.

In mid-December, Lu Ming came to tell Lu Yu about the plague. Lu Ming said that a notice had been posted in the town that chickens and ducks were no longer allowed to be bought and sold in the town, and that the chickens and ducks in the people's homes must be gathered and burned.

Lu Yu was very strange, why didn't the village receive the news, Lu Ming said that he didn't know why, but it was true that the town received the notice, and the town guard even went to Zhang's house to tell Zhang Qiye the news in person. Lu Ming asked Lu Yu to pay attention again, although there are no chickens at home, almost every other villager has chickens, and it is best not to approach those chickens and ducks. Lu Ming left after telling the news, Lu Yu felt quite warm, Lu Ming still cared about his brother very much.

After Lu Ming went back, Lu Yu found that he had forgotten to ask him to persuade his father to come back, so it seemed that he had to go to the town to find his father by himself.

searched all over the town, but didn't find his father, so Lu Yu had to go to Zhang's house again to let Lu Ming pay attention to it. He was also a little worried and said he would pay attention.

When he went back, Lu Yu paid attention and found that the town was really deserted, and there were no more sellers selling chickens, ducks and eggs, and even Hu Butcher's butcher shop had few customers. The butcher shop they rented has not opened in recent months, and it is estimated that although they will hunt a year ago, it should not open again.

Worried, he returned to the village, and when he passed by the dirt field, he saw the village chief arguing with people with his neck crossed. There are very few people in the countryside who don't like to watch quarrels, Lu Yu is an exception, but when he was about to leave, he heard that the quarrel was related to the chicken plague this time.

Fang Daping, the village head, kept roaring: "Chickens are important or human lives are important, chickens are burned in other places, so your chickens are expensive." He was arguing with several women in the village, and Xu Kaigui's daughter-in-law was also there.
