Chapter 162: Cultivating the Fields (II)

In order to cope with the taxes distributed by Qingfeng, the grain stored in Caoyun County was reduced by nearly eighty percent.

The only remaining grain can only barely maintain the consumption of more than 60,000 Liu troops before the autumn harvest.

The displaced people have no food.

"Tell the county lord. ”

One sat cross-legged on the grass, his hands casually resting on his knees.

The stone brain held a thin bamboo dipped in ink in one hand and a spread sheepskin in the other, standing straight opposite Yougen.

"Refugees that cannot be accommodated in the county can be distributed to me in full. ”

"In addition, except for the soldiers stationed in Ningchuan, the rest of the soldiers can reduce the number of meals and supplies. ”

"With a little food, people don't starve. ”

"The hearts of the people will not be separated, as long as the upper and lower levels can share weal and woe. ”

"Of course. ”

Yougen stood up and walked over to Tonna.

He stretched out his hand expressionlessly, patted Naphtha on the shoulder, and looked straight ahead with his eyes.

"You must remind the county lord that the play should be made for people to see. ”

"Those who are good at controlling the people have the people's livelihood in mind. ”

And the uncivilized people will only believe what they see. ”

Hearing this, the naphtha pursed his mouth, rolled up the sheepskin in his hand, and put away the bamboo pen dipped in graphite.

He turned sharply and clenched his hands into fists facing Yougen.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Yougen nodded and put his hands behind his back.

"Good. ”

"Hurry up, hurry up and convey it. ”

"Yes!"

Shi Nao let go of his fist-clasping hand, quickly turned around, and walked quickly out of the tent-covered shack.

He walked to the hut and took the reins from the doorman.

He stepped on a stirrup. Turning over and riding in the saddle, he drove his mount into the distance.

Yougen stretched out his right hand, lifted the tent cloth on the scaffolding, and watched as one person and one rode out of the station quickly.

He frowned slightly, pondering for a moment.

Anything else missing?

Yougen walked out of the hut and walked through the camp of the displaced people at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and came to the lake.

Although it is less than a month since the end of the rainy season, the dam of the lake has been cut off. In the lake, it is more than 500 meters.

The sun shines brightly on the vast wasteland.

The water that accumulates in the wasteland is evaporating into nothingness every day at a rapid rate by the heat of the scorching.

Yougen crouched down and put his hand into the lake.

"Whew. ”

Yougen opened his mouth and took a sip of air containing moisture, and his face was pleasant.

"It's so warm. ”

"The water is also warmer. ”

Yougen withdrew his hand from the lake, the corners of his mouth slightly curled.

He narrowed his eyes and pursed his lips.

"Ten thousand acres of huge lake. How many fish will there be in there?"

"The one who wishes to take the bait?"

Yougen was silent for a moment and shook his head.

His eyes narrowed, and he looked through the surface of the lake, looking into the depths of the lake.

"This time. It should be just small fish and shrimp. ”

"And the whale hiding in the lake can swallow everything. ”

Yougen stood up and shook off his water-stained silk sleeves.

His face was puzzled, and his eyes widened slightly.

"But. What are they waiting for?"

"What is the reason for them to stop at the bottom of the lake?"

Staring intently at the bottom of the dark lake, one of them gritted his teeth secretly. His brow furrowed.

Half-loud, Yougen stretched his brows and raised his head.

The bright and warm sunlight sprinkled on the face covered with scars, and there was a root but felt the slightest warmth.

Really.

"There are no fish that bite the bait. ”

"There is only the wind and rain that wants to come. ”

Yougen's body trembled slightly, and his hands clenched.

His face was covered with sunlight, but his chest was a little congested.

This world is still too strange to Yougen.

Even if you rely on your previous experience, you have the wisdom of many sages, so you can grasp many opportunities.

But sometimes, the aborigines have advantages that the traversers don't have.

This is their world, and here they have everything.

In the southern part of Xinjiang, the water network is dense.

Winding mountains, countless forests.

Lowering your head and looking down, your eyes are full of greenery.

The air current, which was cut by the speed of the sword, swept through the boundless green, startled countless flocks of birds, and blew up countless green leaves.

The black hair that was scattered fluttered in the wind on the back of Zhang Yong's head.

Zhang Yong sat cross-legged on the long sword, his face expressionless, his eyes closed.

"Whew!"

A cyan curtain wall suddenly rushed out of the boundless forest green and stood on the road where Zhang Yong was traveling.

"Buzz~!"

The sword trembled slightly, and stopped in front of the wall.

Zhang Yong opened his eyes, and his pale lips were slightly upturned on his dull face.

With a chuckle, he straightened up from his sword and folded his hands behind his back.

"It's been almost a month. ”

"I finally found it. ”

Zhang Yong turned around and faced the cyan curtain wall standing in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"There are witches and barbarians in the southern Xinjiang, and barbarians in the western wilderness. ”

"The barbarians are all over the place, but the Wu clan can only hide in southern Xinjiang. ”

"You're hiding deep enough. ”

Zhang Yong took a deep breath and picked up the ten-layer Yuan Gang and gathered it in his throat.

He clenched his fists into the cyan curtain wall and shouted hoarsely.

"Xihuang, Qingfeng Daoren, Zhang Yong came to visit!"

"Ancient Witch Wish!"

"Gongsun clan!"

Zhang Yong's cry pierced through the barrier of the green wall, startling countless birds in the dense forest under the flying sword.

After the echo faded away.

The birds and beasts that lived in the forest were all silent.

In a strange silence, the cyan curtain wall blocking in front of Zhang Yong quickly disappeared.

The breeze blew up the emerald green branches and shook out the green waves.

The forest green that Zhang Yong looked down quickly faded and disappeared as the green waves moved.

The first thing that appeared in Zhang Yong's eyes was the horizontal bar with the plaque.

On the plaque, the tadpole-like text has long since crossed the confinement of the years.

Traced back to the history of war and blood and tears.

"Western Wilderness?"

An old man wearing a white silk robe with a cane stands under a plaque.

The old man's beard was white and long, and his thick eyebrows covered most of his eyes, but his face and forehead were bright and ruddy.

The old man's voice was clear and loud, but it was enough to reach Zhang Yong's ears from afar.

"Huh. ”

"The Gongsun family has not encountered a deserted person for nearly a hundred years. ”

"Old decay, Gongsun Xuanri. ”

Gongsun Xuanri held his cane in both hands and looked up at Zhang Yong, who was standing in front of the plaque.

He pursed his lips and smiled, deliberately straightening his waist.

"Meet Daozun!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yong drove the flying sword to land with an expressionless face, and clenched his fists towards Gongsun Xuanri.

"There, there. ”

The wizard was serious. ”

"Junior Zhang Yong, here, meet the seniors!"

Hearing this, Gongsun Xuanri pursed his lips, and a fine light flashed between his eyes.

"Polite, polite. ”

"I don't know what happened when the teacher is far away?"

"If you want to ask for the Demon Beast Neidan, or the Strange Grass Spirit Fruit, please ask the Taoist Master to go elsewhere. ”

"If you ask for precious gold spirit iron, or loose medicine jewelry, there are a few pieces in my clan's inner library, which can be selected by Daozun. (To be continued......)

PS: That.

Rush.

At eighteen, I'm going to work the night shift.

Kindness.

I might have to sleep more today, but I really don't.

Sorry hah.

Also, thank you for your support.
