Wu Jin did not say much, nor was he in a hurry to dig, but looked for locusts in the branches and grass, which gathered on the grass tops in the early hours of the morning to devour the morning dew, their wings wet and unable to fly, just suitable for catching.

He grabbed one in one hand, grabbed it and handed it to Cheng Ting, and asked Cheng Ting to smash it flat with a stone, Cheng Ting followed behind, smashing five times and turning around to take a deep breath from time to time, so that he could slow down.

Seeing that Wu Jin was skilled in catching insects, the students of state studies seemed to have been doing the work of getting rid of locusts for a long time, so they all learned from each other, catching and killing one by one, and those who could not find locusts were still digging insect eggs as they did yesterday.

Seeing that they were in full swing, none of them complained, and they were sleepy, but they also had to learn to do it.

Wang Jinghua stood aside, first touched the tip of the grass, then rubbed on the branch, and then turned over the stone to see, intending to kill this time, Cheng Ting saw it at a glance, and immediately sneered: "Toad essence, you just find a stone to sleep on." ”

"Don't fart," Wang Jinghua raised his head, went down with a hoe, turned over the clods of soil, and found nothing, nor did he feel that digging insect eggs was hard, "Some people are just a broken mouth, and they still can't really do things." ”

He said "hey", and went down with another hoe, and this time the clods turned out were densely packed with insect eggs.

Then the whole mountain heard his retching.

Cheng Ting laughed: "Jing Clam, what's wrong?" It can't be a baby toad, right? ”

He replied with another wave of retching.

Not only Wang Jinghua, but also the students of the entire Tunan Academy were all churning in their stomachs, and they couldn't wait to spit out their bitter bile water.

Wu Jin was originally concentrating on catching locusts, but when he saw that they stopped, he just stood aside and fanned his nose, so he stood up and said: "Everyone should dig it out as soon as possible, the eggs are left here, and they will become a disaster next year." ”

Wang Jinghua threw away the hoe and said that he would not do anything again.

The rest of Tu Nan Academy couldn't hide their disgust, and slowly stopped moving, just standing still in place.

Wu Jin looked at everyone and sighed: "In the city of Kuanzhou, the two materials are not collected, even if the imperial court provides disaster relief, the price of grain has more than quadrupled, this winter is already hungry and cold, if there is a locust plague next year, the four materials are not collected, it must be eaten by Yizi, and the remains are analyzed." ”

He picked up the hoe and handed it to Wang Jinghua: "If you really get to such a situation as a thousand miles of red land, you don't have to dig up insect eggs anymore, you should go to the roadside to pick up bones for your relatives. ”

His face was heavy and sad, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, his two slender eyebrows were hidden in his temples, and his calm eyes suddenly became solemn and powerful.

The poorest young people, with no longevity, no fame, no official body, in the most pale and powerless age, like a jade mountain treasure belt, like a ruler wall and a bead, shining.

"Exaggeration." Wang Jinghua's momentum was weak, "There is a disaster relief from the imperial court, how can it be thousands of miles away." ”

He was about to mumble a few words, but Sun Jing quietly pulled his sleeve, and when he looked back, he saw that everyone else had dug up silently.

Although the digging is not good, but it is also digging, if Wang Jinghua speaks again, it will attract people's suspicion, he closed his mouth, glared at Wu Jin, raised the hoe with great effort, and skimmed the hoe on the ground.

The students sweated like rain to dig up the eggs, and sent them back to burn them, and when the day dawned, they couldn't do anything, and they sat on the stones tired and gasped, and when they had rested, they went back to drink water and eat, and came back after a while.

Tired to such an extent, the poetry can't come out, everything is hateful, even the stones seem to be born so strangely for their butts.

Cheng Ting stretched out his hand and pulled the placket of his clothes, his other hand kept fanning, relieving the heat, searching around with his two eyes, not letting go of any locusts that slipped through the net, after looking at it for a long time, he said "Huh" and patted Wu Jin: "There are soldiers coming, is it Zhangjiabao there?" ”

Wu Jin followed his finger and looked over, and saw that at the foot of Hengshan Mountain, a winding mountain road was heading northwest, and a small fort about the size of Hengshan Fort stood on top of a low mountain range.

The fort is very small, and not close to the important pass, it has long been abandoned, but at this time it has been repaired again, and the head of the fort that has long collapsed is rebuilt with large stones, and in a hurry, two more lookout poles were added, and they stood in front of the fort.

A group of soldiers galloped in, surrounding Zhangjiabao on three floors and three layers outside, while a short soldier strode into the fort and looked around.

The autumn wind blew the embroidered shirts of the warriors, revealing the armor inside, and suddenly a silver light shone, like a pattern in the water, very powerful, even the war horses were different, their heads were neighing, and their muscles and bones were powerful.

The students on the mountain seemed to be able to hear the sound of the saber hitting the armor, and they all didn't move for a long time, and after a long time, Cheng Ting suddenly became excited: "The 20th is the peace talks, we can see it here?" ”

Hearing this, the students' eyes lit up together.

"You can only see outside."

"That's not bad!"

"We won't dig up insect eggs on the 20th, let's come here to see the peace talks."

"Wu Jin, what do you think, let's stay for one more day to dig insect eggs, and don't receive more wages."

"Yes, Wu Jin, okay?"

Wu Jin nodded and smiled: "I want to see it too." ”

Cheng Ting immediately said: "When you go back, you can go and tell the teaching, we will say, the teaching will not agree, maybe you will be afraid of our bad things and drive us back in advance." ”

Everyone nodded one after another, and they all deeply felt that the teachings were partial to Wu Jin.

Wang Jinghua rolled his huge eyes: "What is there to be afraid of?" ”

Cheng Ting turned to him: "Yes, the edict is afraid of you, your king and the toad croaked twice, and people have to leave." ”

Wang Jinghua simply rolled his eyes to the sky, and at the same time got up and walked back: "I don't know you like a fool, let's eat!" ”

As soon as they heard about the meal, the hunger that had temporarily retreated returned, and everyone got up one after another and went back to breakfast with the eggs.

Wu Jin first threw the eggs into the hearth, and then told the priest about watching the peace talks on the 20th.

Sure enough, as soon as the priest saw him say it, he immediately agreed, and he was worried that others would disrupt the peace talks, so he decided to sit in charge himself, only allowing them to see it, not to say it.

The next day was July 18, and after Wu Jin and others were digging up insect eggs, they went to the northwest to take a look while the sun was still shining.

At this glance, I saw that there were already soldiers lined up in front of Zhangjiabao, two people in a team, with iron armor and long knives on their waists, standing on both sides of the road.

The soap-colored banner was displayed outside the fortress, and some people patrolled back and forth, making a great reputation.

The students on Hengshan were excited to see it, and they all discussed how the oath of the two dynasties would be discussed.

"I will go back to the lost land of Sanzhai, the border cities of the two dynasties, everything is as usual."

"I have read the oath in the past, Jin Yu helps 10,000 good horses every year, and we help 200,000 silver silks."

"This time, the golden captives have hit the doorstep, and I'm afraid these are not enough."

"I heard that the envoy of Mo Jiedu will also arrive, I don't know if Miss Mo will arrive, I heard that she has built a team of female soldiers, and she is invincible, and those men in the army are not as good as her."

"It's all because there are too many silverfish, if I go, I will definitely be able to gallop on the battlefield and kill the enemy triumphantly!"
