Dress like a five-year-old little Fubao? Don't panic, take out the space with your backhand and

"Uncle Officer and Soldier, is it really okay if you don't guard the city gate?"

Jiang Guoguo was very curious as to how the city defender could come to do such an errand. The various functions in the city were distributed too casually.

Unexpectedly, the city defender scratched his head and said with some embarrassment:

"Actually, I'm not an officer or soldier. The city defenders are just talking about it. I'm just a striker."

"Because Phoenix City is very close to the border town, there are often soldiers coming and going. The order in the city has always been very good. The city lord's men and the yamen servants are relatively free. For things like guarding the city gates, we are often sent here as handymen.

manage."

"By the way, you must pay attention when entering Phoenix City in the future. Private fights are prohibited in the city. Any disputes must be settled in public and no petty actions are allowed in private. The Lord of the City takes this very seriously. After all, Phoenix City is far away from the border town.

If it’s too close, any turmoil in the city may affect it there.”

Jiang Guoguo and the others listened carefully, and Diandian quickly expressed that she understood.

Along the way, they arrived at the outskirts leisurely in less than half a stick of incense.

From here, you can even see the tallest building in Phoenix City. It is indeed quite close to the city, and the location is considered an excellent place among the villages.

"I have to thank King Dongcang for this. Although King Dongcang doesn't show up often, he has always been a good prince who cares about the people. The land planning on the fiefdom was personally done by King Dongcang. There are plans near each farm.

The purpose of relatively close towns or cities is to allow farmers to be closer to the market and to facilitate the management of various government offices."

"Here we are."

As he spoke, the village was already in sight.

Jiang Guoguo and the others looked up and saw a huge stone placed in front of a large wooden shelf, with several red letters - Sunset Village - written on it in gauze pen.

When Jiang Guoguo saw the name of this village, she couldn't help but curl her lips. She always felt that this village was not lively enough.

Finally, when I looked inside, I saw a really depressed scene. Those who didn't know better thought it was a deserted village.

The roads are relatively well built, paved with fine sand and polished pebbles, and the carriage will feel as if it is walking on flat ground.

It's just that except for the village road, which is pretty good, the rest of the place is really a bit disappointing.

After Mrs. Jiang's old eyes glanced over, she was also a little in disbelief.

Overall, this Sunset Village looks worse than their previous Stone Village. If nothing else, its popularity is not as good as before.

At this point in the past, the village had already been bustling with commotion. The east family gathered firewood to make a fire, the children in the west family played and played, and the neighbors walked around each other. Not to mention how harmonious the relationship was, but at least wherever you go you can see live people and be popular.

.

And this Sunset Village is just like a deserted village, completely deserted.

At this moment, Mrs. Jiang, Lu Baoshan and others all had some loss and confusion in their eyes.

If you take root in such a village, will your life be better in the future?

The city defender seemed to be shocked by the scene in front of him, and said quickly:

"It's strange. When I came here a year ago, this place was not so defeated. How come I haven't been here for a year, and this place has become a bit more depressed."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Jiang and others looked even more sad.

Jiang Guoguo looked around with a pair of smart eyes, curious about everything.

She walked into the village first, and everyone else followed her.

When we entered the village, the scene before us was even more shocking.

The outside of Sunset Village is protected by a wall made of big bricks, which is good.

But once inside the village, various places feel a little out of place with the good village roads and good walls.

It feels like a dirty public toilet built in a high-end club. What can I say in the village...I am afraid that the homeless gathering place is not so dilapidated.

I saw that both sides of the road were full of weeds and rickety houses.

And each of these houses is more dilapidated than the last. There are mud houses that have been washed away and deformed by the rain, brick houses that have been in disrepair and have long since collapsed, and there are even many piles of rotten hay piled on the roadside. Obviously,

It is a thatched house built in the past.

Everyone's expressions were getting worse and worse. When the city defenders saw this, they quickly explained:

"These are all left by the previous villagers. This time when the refugees arrive, people have been arranged to clean them. About tomorrow, Sunset Village will become different than before."

After hearing this, Mrs. Jiang and others' expressions became a little better.

To be honest, this village looks very big. If it were planned, it would definitely be a good village.

But right now, they are the only one living in it. If no one from above takes care of the remnants here, it will take a lot of effort for them alone.

As everyone continued to walk forward, they felt more and more that this village would be very good if it were tidied up.

Soon, they arrived at the other end of the village, where there was a large area of ​​farmland. Unfortunately, at first glance, there were only a few sparse vegetable seedlings in the farmland, which looked like crooked melons and cracked dates.

Next to a large piece of farmland is the pond mentioned earlier.

Moreover, this pond is not stagnant water, but flows down from the mountain.

It's a pity that the drought is still there, so the impact here is not big, but it can be clearly seen that the water level in the pond is very low, and the stream flowing down from the mountain is also in danger, and it may be cut off at any time.

But looking at it, the mountains and waters are indeed poetic and picturesque, which makes people feel comfortable.

Just by taking a breath, you can feel that the air here is pleasant and suitable for living.

"Sir, are those the only two families left in this village?"

At this time, my uncle and grandma Mrs. Xu looked into the distance, pointed at her finger and asked.

Everyone looked in the direction and saw that there was indeed a row house at the foot of the mountain, with white walls and gray tiles, and it looked good.

At this time, there were several figures standing in front of the gates of the two households, looking towards them.
