Chapter 171: Division of Labor (II)

A warm wind blows across the meadows of the moor.

The grass swaying its stems, bathed in the spring sunshine, happily received the baptism of the warm wind.

The river is endless, and all of them drive the caravan on the rugged road.

In the vast blue sky, a golden light shuttles back and forth.

Wrapped in golden flames, he walked through the air and watched the convoy walking on the road.

There is an endless stream of businessmen.

And the cavalrymen who were supposed to wander outside Ningchuan and block the passing convoy had already fled back to the coalition camp.

On both sides of the road, in the green meadows, a hundred flowers are blooming.

Bees and butterflies dance among the flowers.

Wolves and hyenas travel in packs through the depths of flowers and weeds.

The herbivores, which had endured the long cold of the winter and were already hungry, also crawled out of the caves where they were hiding, and in the short spring, they re-nourished their thin bodies into fat and strong.

At this time, the white sand area outside Ningchuan no longer has the desolation and gloom of winter.

Only the clouds that hovered in the sky, thickening with the shortening of spring, seemed to be hanging over the wasteland, and seemed to be about to fall at any moment.

This boulder is destined to crush the prosperity and vitality of the white sand region in the future.

There was a root along the road, in the sky, flying 10,000 meters.

Until the caravan of caravans coming and going on the road gradually became scarce.

There were 100,000 allied troops stationed on the side of the avenue, and many merchants had to carry their goods, and they crossed the mountains and mountains along the sheep intestine trails between the mountains or the grass, and gathered on the vast field.

In just three months, the merchants who traveled between Ningchuan and Baisha with goods had just walked out of a remote road in the wilderness that could bypass the coalition camp.

The world is bustling, all for the benefit.

There is a root stopped in the air. Turning to look at the camp of the coalition forces, his face was indifferent.

Around the passing merchants, Yougen had not seen a single patrolling cavalry for two months.

Yougen took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at the dark clouds in the sky, his brow gradually furrowed.

After a moment, Yougen lowered his head and leaned over and rushed towards Ning Chuan.

Liu Heng held the sheepskin in both hands and stood on the edge of the roof of the rebuilt city tower.

The golden light fell beside Liu Heng. Visible from the golden light is a pair of hands crossed and folded around his chest.

"It's going to rain. ”

"Yes. ”

Liu Heng buried his head in looking at the parchment in his hand.

"It's time for the rainy season. ”

Hearing this, Yougen pursed his lips.

He turned his head to look at Liu Heng, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows became more profound.

"Spring is coming to an end, how much grain and grass have been saved?"

"Yes. ”

Liu Heng raised his head slightly, his eyes were level with the front, and his face was confused.

"Not a lot. ”

"There were 20,000 sacks of corn and 600 pounds of bacon. ”

Liu Heng turned his head and looked at Yougen meaningfully. The suspicion on his face faded.

"If you count the twenty cattle in the hay pen and the sixty birds in the fence between the narrow walls. ”

"The meat reserves in Ningchuan are close to nine hundred catties. ”

"Huh. ”

Yougen tugged at the corners of his mouth. Smile lightly.

"General. ”

"Let people clean up the drains and we can stock some fry. ”

"Oh. ”

Liu Heng bowed his head slightly, and then turned his head.

He bowed his head again and buried his gaze in the sheepskin in his hand.

"Listen to you. ”

Hear the words. One breathed a sigh of relief, a look of relief on his face, the wrinkles engraved on his brow. I stretch quickly, too.

"With these reserves, the garrison in Ningchuan should be able to survive this year's rainy season. ”

"Yes. ”

Liu Heng raised his head with a bitter face, and by the way, he grabbed and kneaded the sheepskin in his hand into a ball.

"How did you do that?"

Hearing this, Yougen was puzzled and turned his head to look at Liu Heng.

"What?"

Liu Heng picked up the sheepskin in his hand and turned his head to look at Yougen.

"How do you figure these things out?"

Hearing this, Yougen grinned and shook his head.

"It's just adding and subtracting, is it that hard?"

Hearing this, Liu Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, and after being silent for a moment, he turned his head.

He looked again at the kneaded sheepskin in his palm, and his face was glazed.

"Huh. ”

Yougen stretched out his hand with a smile on his face and patted Liu Heng's shoulder.

"I'll give you a table. ”

This kind of low-level arithmetic is the metropolis of those who have gone to elementary school.

There is a secret slander, but the smile on his face is particularly sincere and amiable.

Southern Xinjiang.

The porcelain altar of the Gu is buried deep in the maroon mud.

The time to open the altar and take Gu is not fixed every time.

After experiencing a tragic battle, the mutant insect king who stands out will open his mouth and let out a long and sharp sound.

The sound of the Worm King pierces through the dirt that covers the porcelain altar and into the ears of the barbarians who stand guard by the dirt day and night.

On this day, the sound of the insect king sounded again under the soil.

This day was nearly half of the previous thirty-two insect refining times.

Gongsun Xuanri, who heard the news, picked up his cane, tapped a brown and red mud soil with the tip of the cane, and then stepped back.

The four barbarians, who were more than four meters tall, with muscles as snakes and as strong as bulls, immediately walked to the position of Gongsun Xuanri's corner.

They crouched down, stretched out their hands, and quickly scooped up the sticky dirt.

The brownish venom contained in the mud soil continued to sting the skin of the barbarians' palms, and soon made the barbarians' palms red, swollen and blue.

But none of the four barbarians stopped, nor did they shout, but silently dug through the dirt.

It took the four of them ten minutes to dig a hole four meters deep and take out the porcelain altar buried in the soil.

The altar is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and the surface is carved with concave lines, and it is coated with pale yellow glaze and lacquer.

Because of the long-term burial, the porcelain altar was not stained with the slightest slag and dust.

Even, when it was taken out of the deep pit, the porcelain altar actually emitted a metallic bright glow in the sun.

With their festering hands, the barbarians put the porcelain altar that took out the deep pit and put it in front of Gongsun Xuanri.

Gongsun Xuanri waved the crutches in his hand, and the four barbarians bent down and lowered their heads, respectfully taking a few steps back.

Gongsun Xuanri lowered his head slightly, staring at the eyes of the porcelain altar without blinking.

There were spacious tents with a height of six meters built all around, and there was no wind around Gongsun Xuanri, but his snow-white hair began to shake constantly.

An inexplicable momentum burst out from his old body, like a hot molten slurry spewing from the ground, carrying a whirlpool of steam turbulence.

The wind swept away from Gongsun Xuanri's side and blew in all directions.

"Squeak, squeak!"

The huge momentum crushed through the strong wind towards the porcelain altar scattered with glow.

The porcelain altar began to vibrate incessantly, and from the porcelain altar, a creaking sound like a mouse whispering was also heard endlessly.

"Hmph. ”

As if sensing that this insect king was different from before, Gongsun Xuanri raised his eyes slightly, and then his face showed joy.

He took a deep breath, lifted the cane slightly, and slammed the pestle on the ground.

"Bang!"

Like a whirlwind, the air flow gathered violently, like a sharp sword, piercing into the porcelain altar containing the insect king.

The porcelain altar, which was constantly shaking, stood still.

The squeaky insect chirp also suddenly fell low. (To be continued......)
