Mrs. Xu came out and found out what the concept of wanting to settle 3,000 people was.

She felt that although she was almost blown away by the wind several times, she really gained knowledge.

This also gave her a good psychological prediction in advance in terms of receiving caravans in the future.

And it is not only Mrs. Xu who feels that her knowledge has increased, but also Xu Tianxin, Xu Youcang, and Sun Baotian, the youngest child of the Sun family.

Xu Tianxin took the initiative to follow Mrs. Xu when she glanced at her before she left the entrance of the cave.

Xu Youcang didn't worry about his mother and eldest niece, he was going to catch up with him in rags, but he was dragged by the Wanjia boy, who hurriedly took off his clothes and threw them to Xu Youcang.

And Sun Baotian dared to speak in front of Shi'an before.

Liu Laozhu knew that Mrs. Xu had a knee injury, and it was windy outside and about to rain heavily, so he finally felt normal before Mrs. Xu disappeared, and hurriedly instructed the Sun family boy to follow up quickly, help Mrs. Xu or something, help me remember the route, and instructed me to see a little eyesight.

The four of them were following Shi'an around the back of the cave, and they realized how big the cave was, and tried not to cook in the cave.

Especially the natural cave where they settled today.

It is a natural cave that only occurs when the ground is loose.

There are many people, there is no air circulation, and it is easy to be poisoned by carbon monoxide.

On the other hand, if the natural cave is roasted by fire, it is easy for the heat to expand and shrink from the top, and the stones will fall and hit people.

Although people here don't understand the words carbon monoxide and thermal expansion and contraction.

But people like Huo Jiajun who have been away all the year round are very experienced.

So the tent of the leader of the gang was temporarily erected outside the cave against the rocks, some distance from the entrance of the cave. Visually one by one, next to the other, there are six in total.

I heard that there were so few stoves in six tents that there was no shortage of them, and that there was another stove on the side where the horses were placed.

With Shi'an's explanation, in fact, it is also a disguised reminder to Erdaohe's gang not to burn a fire in the cave, and the family members in the live broadcast room are still wondering:

That's right, such a simple truth, why haven't we thought about it before.

We know carbon monoxide and thermal expansion and contraction.

must have been influenced by film and television dramas, the hero and heroine often burn fires in the cave to keep warm and roast chicken, so they think it's okay.

At this time, Shi'an directly skipped the first two stove tents, which were used by the young master of his family, the officials of the Ministry of Rites, and the generals of the personal guards.

Shi'an wanted to open the curtain with the word "Huo" written on the back to ask if Uncle Lai was there, but it happened that a strong wind blew through and blew the curtain open, and he didn't need to lift it to see people: "Uncle Lai, you're still busy."

Just look at an old man sitting on a pile of small rocks and writing notes.

The two sides in front of him were all earthen stove pits.

Mrs. Xu and Xu Tianxin were very surprised to see so many earthen stoves,

Roughly estimated, it can put dozens of pots in it and boil water at the same time, or bake cakes in a pit, is it just such an old age in charge?

What Mrs. Xu didn't know was that they should not underestimate Uncle Lai, the commander of the Huo family's army.

Because the Huo family's husband Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, is famous in the capital, belongs to the mysterious organization of the Huo family, and exists like a sweeping monk.

It is rumored that the gang of the Huo family took Uncle Lai as an example, no matter how bad the environment was, Wen Neng set up camp as quickly as possible, and Wu Neng immediately abandoned the shovel and raised the sword to kill the enemy, and once chased and killed all the way without forgetting to bring the pot, the pot was their armor.

A few years ago, Huo Yunqian had just arrived in Beijing, and was stopped and provoked by a certain prince's subordinates, so he had to come to a big competition to compare the strength of his subordinates.

The other party transferred elite soldiers and strong generals, and Huo Yunqian had to ask Uncle Lai to choose a few people to compete. And Uncle Lai didn't pick too hard, he only picked a few fried sugar and fried well, and he won the other party annoyed and angry.

Uncle Lai said: Then you have to wait, the pigs are about to be slaughtered, and they are all raising pigs in Zhuangzi, and they can't transfer manpower. Only then did the other party know that it was the men in the Huo family's personal guard team who won them, and Uncle Lai was the strongest in martial arts.

So Shi'an didn't dare to be big in front of Uncle Lai.

Uncle Lai didn't reply when he heard this, and said, "You kid is not serving by the general's side, what are you doing here?"

Shi'an introduced Mrs. Xu.

Uncle Lai has always been harsh on officials. For example, the officials of the Ministry of Rites had to eat this and that when they were in a hurry, they said that they would not feel well if they did not rest well enough all the way.

He really wanted to say the hidden words in his heart for his general: Do you eat or not? The imperial court knew that there was infighting, and the treasury was in a serious deficit, and he couldn't wait to let his young master raise his own food for the town guards, and his face was so big.

Compared with ***, Uncle Lai treats the people at the lower level more leniently and politely.

Because the military rations of the generals in the four towns of the east, west, north and south came from the grain taxes paid by the people at the bottom.

Uncle Lai put away his small notebook, and heard that Mrs. Xu and her party were specially ordered to be taken in by his own young master, and he even looked like an ordinary little old man with a smile on his face, and said very well: "Let's go, the villagers come with me, there is no place to dig stoves in this tent, I will take you to dig pits in other tents."

When she got out of the tent, Mrs. Xu was almost blown down by a gust of wind if it weren't for the support of the Sun family.

Looking at the direction pointed by Uncle Lai, Mrs. Xu's eyes were dark, and she never expected the destination to be so far away.

If she wants to tell her what is in her heart, she really wants to say that it is okay not to eat or drink tonight.

But when I heard that the mules and oxen of Erdaohe were placed in the middle of the mountainside, there were many military horses and big tents there, and in this weather, the mules, horses, cattle and tents had to be placed in a suitable place to be safe under the storm, so Mrs. Xu endured the knee pain and was embarrassed to refuse the kindness of Shi'an and Uncle Lai. I always can't put it up, as if the mule and cow are thrown to Huo Jiajun and really don't care, and I don't even eat or drink as if I'm waiting for a ready-made meal.

When climbing the mountain, the wind was too strong, and Mrs. Xu was helped up the mountain by the son of the Sun family.

And Uncle Lai accompanied by the rumbling thunder, he also had to pull Xu Tianxin by the handle, and poured a belly wind and did not forget to comfort Xu Tianxin and said, "The girl is scared by the thunder? I'm afraid, our Huo Jiajun's tent will not be struck by lightning, and the cave has long been seen to be very safe. If you can't stand the cold in the cave, I'll take you to a place in that tent where you and your grandmother can always snooze and have a fire."

When Shi'an heard this, he suddenly couldn't help but laugh.

Because when they set up camp today, those officials of the Ministry of Rites said that the cave was cold, and the more you walked inside, the colder it became, and it was better to live in a tent, anyway, the tent had a copper roof nailed to the ground and would not be blown down by the wind.

Before the young master of his family could say anything, Uncle Lai pretended to scold the junior general in the army not far away, essentially scolding those officials, otherwise it wouldn't be so loud.

Do you say that you are women? And there will be no menstrual affairs, no stomach pain, sitting down sick, what kind of fire! Seeing such a strong wind and a rainstorm coming, the military tent was already less than counted? Even the big tent of the Chinese army has to be used to shelter from the wind and rain for the sweat and blood BMW, and our general has to be wronged into the cave, are you more expensive than the general? Nor do they weigh themselves.

The young master took the opportunity to say, shouting what was going on in the distance.

Those officials of the Ministry of Rites had no face to make any more random demands.

Xu Tianxin was a little flattered, she saw that Uncle Lai was very old, and she wanted the third uncle to step forward to help Uncle Lai, but she didn't expect the other party to come to help her first, and it was so windy, the old man walked calmly and comforted her, she hurriedly thanked her.

What Xu Tianxin didn't know was that Uncle Lai was a little surprised by Xu Tianxin's performance.

The little girl from the countryside who looked like she was only eleven or twelve years old in front of her was not nervous to hide behind people from the moment she appeared, and she saw so many patrol generals wearing armor and coming out of the iron and blood all the way, and she didn't show a look of fear and nervousness, and she was not at a loss when talking to him from beginning to end.

But the heart is very fine.

He observed that when he had just climbed the mountain, the stone under his feet suddenly loosened, and the little girl instinctively stretched out two arms behind her at that moment, as if she could protect her if he slipped, which showed that her heart was pure. Then the little girl's uncle wanted to reach out to help him, but the little girl reacted, it should be to see him walking on the ground, he can still be in the Huo family army at a young age, and secretly pulled her uncle's sleeve and shook his head, a little smart.

I heard that these people are going out to buy for the village.

There are so many families in the village, so many men are in charge, the villagers can choose this pair of grandparents and grandchildren to go out with their little granddaughters, and they can be taken care of and listened to by both their children and uncles and those strong men in the village

Ling, which can be seen in the village's reputation and the degree of love by the villagers.

Uncle Lai suddenly remembered the chatter he had with his subordinates before.

He once said that what happened to the poor family? In fact, there are many good families among our people, the family style is upright and beautiful, the most rare thing is that under limited conditions, food and clothing are insufficient, the elders in the family still teach their children attentively, and raise the baby to treat others sincerely and generously.

And such a common people's family, according to his years of traveling south and north with his young master, compared to the filthy in some high-ranking families and the small calculations between the so-called noble girls, who has a cleaner character and clean eyes and makes a judgment.

This may be arbitrary.

But Uncle Lai thinks that maybe he will encounter a realistic version of his own example today.

Because not long after he left, I heard that the grandfather and grandson and the accompanying Li Zheng sent several large pots of sugar water to the soldiers who were not lightly doused by the heavy rain.

The little girl's grandmother also arranged for the young men in the village to help the soldiers beat the rain and nail the ground, so that the tent would not be able to support a violent storm.

Shi'an also heard about what Mrs. Xu and her party did.

He originally wanted to be nice to Mrs. Xu and them.

What's more, there are two old and young women in it who can't stand an autumn rain and a cold, and the cave is already cold, so they ordered the extra pebbles to be roasted and sent away.

This kind of stone does not explode when it is heated and can continue to heat for a long time, so it will be warm all night with pebbles as bed boards and a layer of hay and old clothes on top.

And these stones were still prepared for the young master of his family and the officials of the Ministry of Rites, and they were prepared quite a lot, and Shi An felt that some young masters would not say anything.

He went to report to Huo Yunqian after he finished sending it.

"They don't seem to have eaten at night, because they are worried that they will be delayed for a few days in the rain, and that they will not have enough food. But he first boiled a few large pots of sugar water and sent it to the tent that helped take care of the mules and oxen, so that the soldiers could warm up. Before each pot of sugar and water was filled, they took a few sips of their own samples, and obviously no one reminded them, and the soldiers didn't guard against them."

Huo Yunqian looked at Yutu and asked, "Erdaohe?"

"Yes."
