CHAPTER XIX

Jiang Xiang distributed the freshly picked cabbage leaves to the children around, and they chewed the eggs and ate them sweetly. But Fengyun didn't eat it, and he couldn't accept eating lettuce, especially when there were cabbage worms on it.

Holding Fengyun's hand, Jiang Xiang led him into the field and pointed out to him the appearance of various crops. After activating the cultivation skill, Fengyun naturally wouldn't even be unrecognizable to the crops, but looking at the weeds that were taller than the millet seedlings, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, such a grain output, let alone 50,000 people, it may not be enough to feed these people in the city!

In the fields, farmers drove oxen to dredge the canals and bring water from the river to water the crops, and many of them were naked, both men and women, but they were covered with mud and could not see anything.

Jiang Xiang leaned over and pulled out the weeds between the millet seedlings, stood up and said: "At the beginning, my human race was born, and I resigned myself to fate, and relied on the ancestors of Fuxi to kill and seize food among various tribes to ensure the continuation of the clan. And my ancestor surnamed Jiang, Shennong, tasted a hundred herbs in the year to pass on the five grains, so that the human race could be established. Life in the world is nothing more than a bite to eat, and what all ethnic groups want is nothing more than the word life. But life is too short, what is the purpose of coming to this world to fight and kill?"

Such a philosophical question could not be answered, and he set his eyes on Lei Yun, and he already had a plan in his heart.

Jiang Xiang threw the weeds away and walked towards the path. Fengyun quickly followed, and asked, "Grandma Wu, how many people are there in this Chiyou City at present?"

Jiang Xiang pondered for a moment and said, "The Li Yan clan in the west of the city also gave birth to a son two days ago, and there are already 11,753 people in the city now, what are you asking for?"

Fengyun pondered his words and said: "If there are more than 10,000 people, I am afraid that relying on these fields alone will not be enough to eat in one winter, right?"

Jiang Xiang stopped and asked, "What do you see?"

The system does not allow the content of the task to be exposed, Fengyun considered the sentence, and said: "I also understand farming, I'm afraid this field has been planted for at least three years, right? There are more and more grasses in the field, and it is because the weeds with strong roots can draw nutrients from deeper into the ground, and they also rob the nutrients of the crops, so that the crops will grow smaller and smaller. After speaking, Fengyun looked at Jiang Xiang worriedly. He said this on purpose, and the real situation is estimated not to be as serious as he said, but only in this way can he bring out his later words.

Sure enough, Jiang Xiang frowned and thought for a long time, walked around the field, and said to Fengyun: "I don't understand some of what you said, but it is true that as you said, the crops are getting worse and worse year by year, and the short grain in winter is no longer a matter of one or two years." Do you have any ideas?"

Just waiting for your words, Fengyun couldn't wait to say: "We need more land and sow more grain, so that we can store enough grain before winter." ”

Jiang Xiang shook his head and said, "Most of the women in Chiyou City are all the old and young women of the Li tribe, not to mention cultivating more fields, the existing fields alone are already unable for them to cultivate. ”

Fengyun stepped forward and said: "So we need more people, this city is too old, the population ratio is extremely unbalanced, why should all the prime-aged warriors be transferred to other cities? ”

Confused by the string of nouns Fengyun, Jiang Xiang waved his hand and said: "Don't tell me this, political and military affairs are decided by the patriarch." However, he is currently planning a westward expedition, and at that time, he will only re-enlist the army, not to mention the transfer of the population, I am afraid that the adult soldiers in Chiyou City will also go out with the army. ”

Forget this, Fengyun frowned, the system said that people in the same camp are not allowed to die unnaturally, and if they die in battle, isn't it an unnatural death?

Fengyun anxiously said to Jiang Xiang: "Grandma Wu, this battle can't be fought!"

Jiang Xiang sighed and said, "You also heard the patriarch's words yesterday, he has made up his mind, and no one can change it." ”

No, we must not let this battle start! Fengyun asked, "Where is Li Fu now?" I'll go find him. ”

"He should have discussed sending troops to the old Fengyi in the council chamber, which was the largest stone house in the city. Jiang Xiang said: "But you haven't recognized your ancestors and returned to your ancestors, so you can't enter the council room." ”

He didn't hear this, because he had already risen into the air.

"Wow! he can fly!" shouted at the egg's eyes, pointing at Fengyun's back.

Looking down at Chiyou Castle from the air is different from being in it, from above, both the thatched and stone houses are hidden under the branches and leaves of large trees, although they are not as beautiful as the high-rise buildings, but they have a unique charm. However, Fengyun didn't have time to enjoy these beautiful scenery at this time, and when he saw the council chamber, he flew straight there.

"Who trespassed on Chiyou City!" before flying to the outer floor of the council chamber, a loud shout was heard below, followed by two spears with a sharp sound of wind.

With a wave of his hand, two gusts of wind swept away, blowing the spears crooked, and the two spears were fierce, grazing the side and hem of the wind and clouds with a sharp whistling, and suddenly flew away without a trace. The wind and waves that brought it up made his clothes flutter, and if he touched it, I was afraid that it would penetrate his body at that time.

With the cry of an eagle, a giant eagle flew out of the council chamber, and a figure leaped onto its back after it spread its wings and flew towards the wind and clouds.

Fengyun hurriedly shouted loudly: "Don't do it, your own people." ”

The eagle spread its wings and swirled around him in the air, and above his neck sat a man staring at him coldly, and had drawn the short spear strapped to his back.

Fengyun shouted again: "Don't be nervous, my own people, I'm here to find the patriarch." As he spoke, he clenched his fists, and a faint mist of blood filled his body.

Seeing the blood mist, the man's expression softened a little, but he still shouted with a cold face: "Since you are from the Li tribe, how dare you fly above the council hall?

Fengyun didn't want to make a move, so he immediately flew down, and the giant eagle flicked its wings and followed him.

It makes sense that the council chamber is called a hall, and the kind of stone pillars that Fengyun saw when he woke up were surrounded by a circle, acting as a wall, supporting a large slate roof, and actually raising another layer on top of the stone slabs. This is the only two-storey building that Fengyun has seen in the city.

The entrance was a gap in the stone pillar, and there was no gate, and a tall fat man was carrying a huge stone hammer, guarding the doorway, gnawing on the leg of mutton in his hand.

Seeing the wind and clouds falling, he strode forward, threw away his bones, and reached out to grab the wind and clouds.

Looking at the greasy hand of his hand, Fengyun frowned, his feet did not move, and his figure had already floated backwards, like a gust of wind, extremely elegant.

Boom! The giant eagle flew by, and the man with the short spear on his back jumped down from mid-air, blocked behind the wind and clouds, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

Fengyun sighed and said, "I am Fengyun, and I was brought back from outside by the patriarch. ”

Enlightened, the short-speared man asked, "You are the Li who hatched out of the stone?"

"Why did it hatch again?" Fengyun's eyes widened, but he didn't bother to talk to him about this, and said helplessly: "Say whatever you want! I'm here to find the patriarch, is he in there?"

Confirming Fengyun's identity, the short spear man's tone softened, nodded at the fat man, and said to Fengyun: "The patriarch is discussing important matters with the city lord of the Eight Cities, you can wait for him to come out outside!"

"This matter is urgent, I really can't wait, can you let me in?" Fengyun said.

The short-spear man frowned and shook his head and said, "No, you can't go in." The fat man picked up the stone hammer and stood at the door of the council hall, his broad body blocking the door, quite a bit of a one-man posture.

Opening his mouth, Fengyun didn't speak, sighed, he looked at the man with a short spear and said, "Then what if I have to enter?"

"Defeat our two guards, break through the witch formation, and you'll be able to enter. The man with the short spear smiled, stared at him and said, "If you can do it, don't say go in, you can be the patriarch." ”

With that, he turned around and walked over to the fat man, and the giant eagle fell from the sky, its sharp claws sinking into the ground for three minutes.

Shaking his head helplessly, Fengyun whispered: "You forced me!"

Swinging his palm in front of him, a row of wind blades appeared, the sharp tip flashed with a cold light, Fengyun thought about it, reached out and wiped off the tip of the blade by three points, and with a wave of his hand, the wind blade suddenly slashed forward!

Regardless of the atmospheric resistance, in the blink of an eye, the wind blade had already slashed into the chest of the short-speared man and the fat man, and Fengyun had already followed closely behind, rushing towards the council chamber!

The fat man didn't dodge or dodge, let the wind blade split on him, only to see the flesh surging, the wind blade that could open the mountain and crack the stone actually did not cause any harm to him, he lifted the stone hammer, roared, and pounced on the wind and clouds.

The giant eagle cried, spread its wings, and the wind surged, wanting to fan the wind blade of the wind and clouds, but it had no effect at all. The short spear man's body was filled with blood mist, steaming like a flame, and even the short spear in his hand was covered with a layer of blood flame. With a few quick clicks, the man easily picked up the wind blade, shook his hand and stabbed it, and the short spear had already pierced Fengyun's chest.

With the help of the power of the flapping of its wings, the giant eagle has already swung out its two sharp claws, grabbing towards the wind and clouds. For a moment, claws, short spears, stone hammers, and the fat man's big belly covered almost all directions of Fengyun.

Fengyun gritted his teeth, and as soon as he took a step forward, his body had already taken off, and the wind suddenly rose, blowing his body like a spinning top, countless fine wind blades spread all over his body, spinning rapidly, and Fengyun was like a bullet out of the chamber, drilling towards the only gap under the wings of the giant eagle.

"Ahh

The sound of fine collision and cutting sounded, stone chips and wood chips flew, and the wind and clouds carried a cloud of smoke and dust straight through the encirclement of two people and one eagle, and rushed into the door of the council chamber.

A flash of blood flashed, and Fengyun was bounced out at a faster speed, and flew out against the fat man who couldn't dodge, crashing into a stone house opposite.

Fengyun spat ash and got up from the ruins, one staggered, oops, a little dizzy.
