Chapter 23 Food shortage
There was a sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping in Guyun Village, and countless villagers panicked. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info watched the swarming krakens hurriedly run into their houses, desperately closing the door and trembling and begging.
I don't know how long it took, but there was no sound outside. Strange to say, every time the Kraken came ashore and entered the village, it would break into the homes of the villagers and loot them. But this time, I don't know why, but it was so quiet.
A villager secretly opened the window, and saw that there was indeed no kraken, so he hurriedly opened the door and walked out.
Looking at the farmland in front of him, he was suddenly stunned, and then he came to his heart and shouted at the empty farmland: "Food, food is gone."
"Grain?". Many villagers who were hiding in their homes hurriedly rushed out of their thatched huts. They looked at each other in confusion, and blinked in disbelief.
After making sure that this was not a dream, they shed tears one by one and looked up to the sky and cried.
"Grain, my food."
"This damn Kraken, I fought with them".
"This year, there has been a severe drought, and grain production has been reduced in a large area. Now that it has been snatched up by the Kraken, how can we live in the future."
A villager touched his tears, and his voice was a little choked: "I, I'm going to the village chief."
"What is the use of finding a village chief? I have 300 households in Guyun Village, more than 1,000 people, can the village chief make so much grain alone?"
"This is done by the Kraken, how can we find the village chief."
"It stands to reason that this kraken's attack should be under the control of the Heavenly Dao Sect, why did they watch and didn't come out to stop the kraken."
"Yes, this matter should be the responsibility of the Heavenly Dao Sect, let's go to the Heavenly Dao Sect."
"Tell everyone to come over and look at the farmland, and then let's go find the Heavenly Dao Sect Theory together."
As soon as the words fell, the villagers scattered one after another, and all went to the village to find those unaware neighbors to come out and see their farmland.
......
At the village chief's house, Zhu Congyun looked at a chair, and the rice seeds that were forgotten by Chen Yi subconsciously walked over.
Gu Yi walked home dejectedly, watching his wife staring at a place, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "What are you looking at?
"What do you say this is?". Zhu Congyun took the rice seeds on the chair into his hand.
Gu Yi looked at the seed and thought of Zixu and the words he said, and suddenly realized: "It turns out that the real person in charge of Zixu is talking about this."
"This?". Zhu Congyun looked at Gu Yi suspiciously, not knowing what he was talking about at all.
Gu Yi looked at his wife's expression and knew that she didn't react, so he hurriedly reminded her: "It's the rice seeds we planted together."
"Rice seeds?". Zhu Congyun reacted instantly, and hurriedly opened the bag of seeds in his hand.
Gu Yi also stretched his head over to watch at the same time: "Yes, it's this seed, let's take it and plant it."
"Good". Zhu Congyun replied without thinking, and immediately reacted after speaking: "This is something that the Purple Void Real Man dropped here, how can we use it privately."
"Oh, don't worry, the real person in charge of Zixu said that this is for our Guyun Village." Gu Yi explained to Zhu Congyun, with some impatience in his tone.
Zhu Congyun looked at Gu Yi's expression and ignored it, and looked at him suspiciously: "Really?"
"How can I lie to you about this?". Gu Yi hurriedly explained.
Zhu Congyun was skeptical, but thought about it again: "Let's believe you once."
"What is called is a fact." After speaking, without waiting for Zhu Congyun to speak, he immediately ran out in a hurry.
At this time, a villager hurriedly ran over and looked at Gu Yi breathlessly: "The village, the village chief is not good, the kraken has moved all the grain in the field."
"What did you say, Kraken?". Gu Yi didn't react and asked the villager.
The villagers gasped for a moment, and just wanted to explain but thought of something, their expressions were very hurried: "Village chief, go and take a look, now there are more than 1,000 men, women and children in the village, but where are all the people waiting."
"Exactly, where is it?". Gu Yi felt that this person was speaking and didn't make it clear, but he felt that the matter was important and couldn't help but be anxious.
When the villagers heard Gu Yi's inquiry, they reacted instantly, and hurriedly pointed to the west: "The west of the village."
"I can't plant the seeds......". Gu Yi looked at Zhu Congyun and hurriedly explained to her.
Zhu Congyun waved his hand impatiently, and directly interrupted Gu Yi's words: "Go and get busy, you don't need to interfere with this seed."
"Good". Without waiting for the words to fall, Gu Yi quickly ran to the west.
Zhu Congyun looked at Gu Yi's anxious appearance, and now he shook his head and turned in a direction and walked towards his own field.
At a gallop, a villager followed the voice and subconsciously shouted: "The village chief is here."
More than 1,000 men, women, and children, all looked at Gu Yi in unison, silently as if something was brewing.
Gu Yi looked at these people and suddenly felt a mountain of pressure. looked at the fertile field in front of him, and his heart instantly cooled half.
The villagers tried their best to suppress the grief and indignation in their hearts, and asked Gu Yi one by one.
"The village chief and all the grain in the field were swept away by the kraken, and more than 1,000 men, women, and children in our village did not have much food in stock. I don't know how we should get through this in the future."
"Survive it? When will it be a head? These krakens can grab the first time, can't they grab the second time?".
"It's all the Kraken's fault."
"If we remember correctly, the duty of the Heavenly Dao Sect is to keep the peace of our Guyun Village, but why are they indifferent when the Kraken attacks."
"Village chief, you have to comment on the theory, is this matter to blame him for the Heavenly Dao Sect."
"If it weren't for their Heavenly Dao Sect to let these krakens go, how could there be such a catastrophe today."
"Village Chief, you touch your conscience and say, should our losses be borne by their Heavenly Dao Sect?"
"Yes, they should be responsible for the Heavenly Dao Sect."
At this time, the crowd was excited, and a thousand men, women, and children angrily scolded Gu Yi.
Gu Yi looked at the excited villagers, his face was full of sadness, and explained to them: "What strength does the Heavenly Dao Sect have, what strength does the Kraken have, don't you don't know?
"We don't care, this matter was originally in the hands of the Heavenly Dao Sect. Since we have no harvest in our land, and they do not pay for it, do they want us to starve to death?" Someone fanned the flames inside, and the crowd was instantly excited.
"Yes, we should ask them to compensate for the Heavenly Dao Sect."
"This thing can't just be left at that."
"If his Heavenly Dao Sect doesn't have the ability to exterminate the Kraken and regain the grain, then let us get out of Guyun Village."
The angry voices were higher and higher, and Gu Yi had no choice but to persuade them again: "Otherwise, I'll go and discuss with the Heavenly Dao Sect first." You give me a month, I'm giving you an answer, and you say it's okay or not."
"No, we'll have to answer now." Some people took the opportunity to continue to fan the flames. But this time the villagers calmed down, they were easy to incite, but they were not stupid. The reputation of the Heavenly Dao Sect in the past dynasties was good, but he was just carried away by anger in a hurry.
Gu Yi saw that these villagers did not make a fuss, and breathed a sigh of relief: "If you agree, then disperse."
"I'm in trouble with the village chief." The villagers thought about it, and this was the best way, and then dispersed.
In a moment, more than a thousand men, women, and children walked away, Gu Yi didn't dare to think about it, and hurriedly ran in the direction of the Heavenly Dao Sect.
