In the farm on Taiping Road.

As the outer disciples, everyone had just finished their farm work, and they were tired enough.

The weather was too hot, and the ground was sunburned into hard lumps, and it was extremely difficult to plan, even if there were older people on the side to guide how to make more effortless, it was still tired and everyone was sweating like rain.

Because this year was so dry that the original seedlings died, so at this time it was sorghum that was planted to ensure the harvest during drought and flood.

Sorghum has relatively little water requirement, can adapt to arid climatic conditions, and has a relatively short growth cycle, and is not prone to insect pests, which is very suitable for planting in such disaster years.

Although sorghum rice tastes bitter, in a famine year, as long as you can eat enough, you can still care about the taste.

Such a life-saving crop, it stands to reason that everyone should plant it.

But the truth is completely opposite, after all, everything has advantages and disadvantages.

Although sorghum is a drought-tolerant and waterlog-tolerant crop, it can grow normally in drought, cold and waterlogging environments because of its deep root system and large root system.

That's why this crop is so tiring that planting it this year, and if you plant something else in the next two or three years, it won't grow.

So unless there are some specific areas, there are not many people who grow sorghum.

And most of the land in Nanyang County is good land, who is willing to plant sorghum?

Do you have to pay so much land rent every year? The landlords won't let you plant sorghum to spoil their land!

In a word, the reason why the victims were starved and forced into exile, their bones were exposed in the wild, and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles was never because of natural disasters.

Essentially, because farmers do not have their own land and do not have the ability to fight against natural risks.

And this is also the root cause of the demise of most dynasties - land annexation!

Although it is very tiring to do farm work at the moment, many homeless people who starve to death in the wilderness do not even have the opportunity to be tired.

Lu Yu looked at the three people next to him who were dressed in rough clothes, hesitated, and pretended to be tired.

Although it was a busy morning, it was indeed quite tiring, but it was not so exaggerated.

Lu Yu secretly pondered the reason.

Was it because of Bai Yuyao's big meal?

Or is it because of the cultivation of the True Fa that he has improved his physique?

Or both?

There should be two reasons!

After resting for a while, the hungry people finally waited for lunch to begin.

Today's lunch is wheat rice with some wild vegetables.

What is Wheat Rice?

It is to steam the wheat that does not shed its husks.

Because wheat with husk tastes bad and is difficult to swallow, it is eaten with water from which the wheat has been steamed.

Put some wild vegetables in this water, and it will be soup.

It's such a food treatment, and there is only one bowl per person, and if you want to eat more, you don't have it.

Lu Yu stared at the wheat rice and wild vegetable soup in front of him, his expression a little subtle.

If some time ago, when I saw this bowl of wheat rice, I would definitely be so happy.

But since I was summoned by the little rich woman and ate those delicacies, I have a little headache when I look at these again.

It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift!

But.

Lu Yu didn't complain, but ate silently.

In addition to pulling the throat a little, the wheat rice is still very fragrant, and the taste of wild vegetables is also good.

"Why don't you go out of the shell?" Kong Yue couldn't help but whisper.

"How do you hull wheat?" Ren Qingshan on the side said speechlessly: "You are also a scholar, why don't you even understand this?" Now people who read books don't know all kinds of grains, and they are not diligent? ”

"Huh?" Kong Yue was a little dumbfounded, he felt that he was despised.

"Wheat doesn't have an easy shell to peel off, if you want to peel off, you can only smash it, and then sift it out, but when you sift it out, it's flour, how can we be qualified to eat such a good thing?" Wei Ergou said angrily.

"Oh, that's right." Kong Yue was a little embarrassed, "I still know the five grains, but I really don't know about these." ”

"It's nothing if you don't know, but when you see more in the future, you'll know." Lu Yu said lightly, and then put down the soup bowl: "I'm done." ”

"I'll help you wash the dishes, Brother Yu." Wei Ergou hurriedly got up and took Lu Yu's dishes and chopsticks.

"Wash it too!" The hole is more open.

"What are you?" Wei Ergou glanced at Kong Yue.

"If you don't wash it, you won't wash it, why scold!" Kong Yue originally wanted to get angry, but when he looked at Wei Ergou's eyes, he was suddenly stunned.

"I didn't curse." Wei Ergou lowered his head and said.

This morning's farm work, when he couldn't do it, Lu Yu helped him, and also helped Kong Yue and Ren Qingshan, maybe they didn't take it to heart, but Wei Ergou still kept it in mind.

Lu Yu didn't stop it, the days of getting along with each other in the future will be very long, there is no need to see each other too much.

After eating, after a half-hour break, Deacon Dai led all the outer disciples to train in the afternoon.

All of them received a stick and trotted under the command of Deacon Day.

After running around the farm five times, it took nearly an hour, and when they returned to the same place, many of them were already weak in their legs, and those new outer disciples couldn't help but sit on the ground.

Kong Yue, Wei Ergou and Ren Qingshan also sat on the ground, while Lu Yu glanced at those old foreign disciples, all the old foreign disciples, without exception, all stood straight.

Obviously, it's not that I'm not tired, it's that I don't dare to sit.

Lu Yu opened his mouth and said, "Stand up, don't sit." ”

"Huh?" Kong Yue subconsciously said: "But I'm going to be tired to death." ”

Ren Qingshan and Wei Ergou didn't say anything, they chose to believe Lu Yu, and quickly stood up.

Soon, Deacon Dai came over, he glanced at the people sitting on the ground, sneered and said, "Who told you to sit down?" ”

"Stand up and run five more laps!"

"Qu Yingda!"

"No!" A foreigner disciple stepped forward in response.

"You come to supervise these people, lead them to run another five laps, who dares to run less, who dares to fall behind, kick them out directly, let them roll as far as they want, I don't need them in Taipingdao!!"

Those new initiation disciples who were sitting on the ground resting, when they heard this, turned pale one by one, and ran five more laps?? It's a hell of a thing!

But if you don't run, you will be expelled from Taiping Road, what will happen to you, you don't have to think about it, most of you will starve to death outside!

So, if you don't run, you have to run!

When many foreigner disciples saw this scene, they immediately gloated, they all came here like this at the beginning, and they should also let these newcomers suffer!

Kong Yue glanced at Lu Yu desperately, and he regretted it to the extreme, he hesitated just now, he didn't listen to Lu Yu's words, and now he has to run five more laps!

And Ren Qingshan and Wei Ergou were not punished because they listened to Lu Yu!

Kong Yue gritted his teeth, and did not betray Ren Qingshan and Wei Ergou because of this, and obediently accepted the punishment.

As these people left, Deacon Dai looked at the many outer disciples and said loudly, "Everyone is standing upright!" Spaced a certain distance between each of you, get ready to practice spearing! The stick in your hand at this moment is your spear! ”

Soon, everyone formed a large phalanx on this large flat land, and everyone was separated by a certain distance.

"Ready!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone stood firm and clenched the wooden stick in their hands.

"Thorn!"

At the sound of an order, everyone stabbed the sticks in their hands at the same time.

"Close!"

"Thorn!"

"Close!"

"Stab again!"

After practicing this for an hour, it was already dusk, and those who had gone out for a run had finally returned.

"Good!" Deacon Dai nodded and said loudly to everyone, "Rest for a while, and then proceed to the final training!" ”

"Today's final training session is, Jiaodu!!"

"The rules are very simple, the winner continues, the loser withdraws, and the winner who can win five in a row can eat meat tonight!"

After a whole afternoon of training, everyone was already exhausted, but when they heard that they could eat meat, many people suddenly came to their senses again!

The so-called wrestling is a kind of activity similar to wrestling and sumo wrestling.

This kind of activity, one is to look at strength, and the other is to look at technology.

At this moment, those new beginner disciples were already tired into a mess of mud, and they didn't have the strength to resist at all, and as the corner began to arrive, they were basically defeated in one round.

Among the newcomers, Lu Yu is the only one who still has enough spare strength.

And he obviously has no intention of hiding it.

At this moment, he has won a streak of battles, and he has already put down four opponents!

Such a luxurious record has naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Many outer disciples were discussing, and even Deacon Dai came over.

"This newcomer is a bit awesome!"

"I was careless!"

"I'm underestimating the enemy too!"

The old foreigner disciple who was put down had a little unbearable on his face.

Many of these old foreigner disciples have been training here for a year or two, and it is so embarrassing to lose to a newcomer at this moment!
