Only then did the villagers know that the village chief's family had also fallen into this catastrophe, and the woman who was crying loudly suddenly stopped abruptly: "The village ...... Village Chief, it turns out that such a big thing happened in your family, I'm sorry! ”

She was embarrassed to cry anymore, not only embarrassed, but also pushed her man in front of Laifu and told him not to hurry up and follow the village chief to find food.

Seeing this, the others couldn't continue to mess around, so everyone enthusiastically signed up and followed the village chief out to get food.

The men finally came back before dark.

During this time, Zhang Xiu led the women in the village to clean up the yamen kitchen.

Fortunately, the yamen is a place to eat big pot rice, there is no shortage of pots and bowls, and there are dozens of pairs of dishes and chopsticks.

When they came back, they took out a bunch of utensils, pots and pans, as long as they could use them, they picked them up, and most of the ones they ate were sweet potatoes.

In addition, Ding Xiaodie and Ding Gui's father and daughter quietly found a place where no one was around, and took out a bag of rice from the space, at least fifteen kilograms.

Definitely, boiled rice porridge with sweet potatoes and a bag of salt.

After cooking, the big guys lined up and waited for the village chief to give each of them a bowl, and when this bowl of hot sweet potato rice porridge was held in his hand, some people drank it with mixed feelings.

Ding Xiaodie's family of three sat around Wang Dafeng, and whoever was empty would feed her a mouthful.

The old woman is a little confused now, holding the rabbit tightly in her arms to prevent people from touching it, and whoever looks at the rabbit in her arms will greet the eighteenth generation of their ancestors.

When he doesn't curse, he mutters to the rabbit: "My Hua Ni, my Bao'er." ”

Ding Xiaodie was puzzled and asked, "Dad, who is Hua Ni?" ”

Ding Gui thought for a while before digging out the answer from the memory of the original owner: "It's my sister, your grandmother has given birth to a total of four children in her life, in addition to your uncle and second uncle and me, there is also a daughter named Hua Ni, and later when she was five years old, she was taken away by Hua Zi!" ”

I see.

Ding Xiaodie's mother and daughter looked at each other with complicated expressions, it turned out that the old woman also had a knot in her heart, and the loss of her baby daughter was her biggest pain, and this earthquake actually shook out her heart that she had buried for so many years!

I don't know if it's because of this reason, Zhang Xiu suddenly understood the old woman a little more, and then took care of her more carefully and considerately.

After drinking the porridge, Laifu said: "Today except for the vigil and the people who take care of the wounded, they all rest early, and tomorrow there is something to do." ”

Tomorrow, the big guy is going to bury the villagers who died in the earthquake.

But then again, who can sleep.

The big guys all sat around the courtyard, a bonfire was burned in the middle, no one spoke, everyone had a sad look on their faces, some of them were injured, and now they didn't even have a man, so they could only let him live next to him.

That kind of heart-wrenching distress, I really don't know whether to complain about the sky or the earth, in short, every villager in Aozigou has never been so desperate as now.

……

After the big guys finally couldn't stay up and went back to the house to rest, Laifu gathered a few men in the village who were in charge of the matter.

"The three stinkers are Zhuge Liang, and the big guys all have ideas, what should I do next?"

"Uncle, there's really no way, I can't even think of it if I want to break my head, let alone in the future, it's a question of whether I can eat a bite tomorrow." Ding Xing's brows were furrowed, although there were only eighty-seven people in the village now, it was not a small number, and it was not easy to lead such a large team.

Laifu took a puff of dry smoke: "Nonsense, if you can come up with a solution so easily, I still need to annoy you all?" ”

In fact, Ding Gui has also been thinking about this matter, but at this time he can't find an idea for a while.

Miao Daxing said: "Why don't we continue to move forward, the dead move the dead and the people move alive, now Yangliu Town can no longer stay, only by continuing to move forward can there be a way to live, doesn't it mean that Wo County is also very prosperous?" ”

"When we first came, we also heard that Yangliu Town was prosperous, but what happened?" Ding Shun was angry, he was in a bad mood in the past two days, and his daughter-in-law Fang Cuihua always messed with him, but the matter between the two of them had not been clarified yet, and this was an earthquake.

Laifu looked at Ding Gui: "Agui, speak." ”

With what happened during this time, Laifu trusted Ding Gui more and more, and now directly felt that his thoughts were the most important.

Ding Gui was stunned, thinking to himself that although Fluttershy had space, she could only take out some of the food, and she couldn't keep eighty-seven mouths a day anyway.

The most important thing is that if they take out so much food at once, won't they be treated as monsters?

People in this era are very convinced of superstition, so their family of three has never dared to be careless.

And right now, except for the muddy water in Yangliu Town, it can be said that there is really no hope.

"I agree with Otomo's words, although the process will be difficult, but sooner or later we will die if we stay in Yangliu Town."

Ding Gui looked at the big guy apologetically, the only idea he could come up with was this, as for whether he wanted to leave or not, it depended on the big guy.

Laifu nodded with a deep sigh: "It's true that we have no way out, but it's unlikely that we want to leave now, there are still a few injured people in the village, and on this hot day, I'm afraid they won't be able to survive after they get on the road." ”

This is indeed a big problem.

Just when everyone fell silent, Laifu proposed: "See if some of the people can go first, if you can't meet the desert soldiers on the road, speed up the pace, fifty miles, how can it be in three days!" ”

But what is the role of these people who left first, hoping that they will return to Yangliu Town with food in three days for relief?

Ding Gui felt that it was unlikely.

The selfishness of the human heart will be reflected in the environment, if these people arrive in Vao County and find that they can eat there, then there is no need for them to take the risk of encountering the desert soldiers again, and then return to Yangliu Town to save people.

And how to save?

Do they have the ability to pull back two large truckloads of grain?

"I think if you want to go, let's go together, or no one else will go." Ding Shun said sullenly, obviously, Ding Gui also thought of it.

The boundary they discussed was right inside the courtyard gate, and Ding Xiaodie happened to sleep in the room near the corner of the courtyard, she lay on the bed and stared, quietly listening to the voices of the men once again return to silence.

The moonlight in the night sky outside the window was very bright, and she thought to herself, it was obviously irrational for the villagers to walk in batches at such a time.

It seems to be telling everyone that the strong will go first, and the old, weak, sick and disabled will retreat, which will bring psychological uneasiness to the big guy, because no one can say whether the first person will turn back.
