Surviving Endless Disasters

One of the oldest, an old man of more than eight years old, spoke first: "Village Chief Huang, there is nothing we can do.

"Life in our village has not been easy in the past year. Many people have been sent away. Now the old man has only a few of us left."

"The old man's old voice was trembling.

The old man next to him continued: "This life is sad enough, but then there is an insect infestation.

These days, we see that the crops are being eaten by insects. We really... wish they would come and eat our old bones.

"Old man, what you said is serious. An old person in a family is like a treasure. I hope that the old people will be healthy and give more guidance to us young people who have never seen the world."

Huang Mingchang answered first, which shows that he should have been taught well by the village chief during the rainy day.

Village Chief Wang sighed sadly, brought the topic back, and said: "We hope that the old man can give us long-term guidance, but because of the insect plague, the whole village can't eat well or sleep well at night. If you bend down to catch insects in the ground, you can't catch them manually.

"The people in Sanlihe Village have the same feeling when saying this. In the past, when there was no army of chickens and ducks, they were all in the same state.

Then another old man directly explained the purpose of coming here: "Village Chief Huang, my old man is dazzled. I just saw that the chickens and ducks were obediently eating insects in the field, and they did not harm the crops. It was just like in a dream." Same here.

"Second uncle, you are not dreaming. The chickens they raise really do not harm the crops."

Village Chief Huang, I don’t know how you raised the chickens like this. Please help our village.

"Village Chief Wang said that he was about to kneel down again, but he was supported by someone in time, and his face was full of prayer.

The several old people who came over had pleading expressions on their faces, and many of the villagers in Sanlihe felt a little uncomfortable, but they couldn't tell anyone about the Chicken King, so they all heard what Zheng and the village chief said.

The village chief was not that easy to fool, and just said to Village Chief Wang: "Our village is dug by the villagers' hands, and the livestock we raise now are not obedient. How can we release the chickens and ducks to harm the crops.

"We saw it just now..." Village Chief Wang immediately retorted, but when they looked into the field, they could see that there were no chickens or ducks left. They had been taken away long ago.

No matter what he said after that, the village chief refused to admit the chicken and duck matter. Instead, he asked the people from Xiahe Village to come over. At this time, they were a little hesitant in their words. In the end, they only said that they came here to see the situation in Sanlihe Village.

He was busy catching bugs at night, and he came to our village without catching up on sleep during the day. He said he wanted to see the situation, but he knelt down when he saw us.

If Xiahe Village really came to ask for help, he would discuss it with Wen Zheng, but if he came directly to this move, he really had to think carefully if he wanted to help.

When the people from Xiahe Village reluctantly left, the villagers surrounded the village chief. Someone asked impatiently: "Village Chief, why don't you help Xiahe Village?" The village chief glanced at the person who spoke, this girl She married into their village from Xiahe Village, and she must be thinking about her natal family.

The village chief didn't say anything, but Huang Mingchang stood up and told him one by one the suspicions of the people in Xiahe Village. In fact, the villagers were not stupid, and most of them felt that something was wrong.

Huang Yi'an took the initiative to bring it up: "Everything they said and did when they came here felt like they were well prepared. They knew there were chickens and ducks in our village to help.

"Then how did they know?" ” This question lingers in the hearts of the villagers, and they recall these days as memories.

Although the rain stopped in the past two days, the circuit and communication have not been restored. If you want to tell this matter, you still have to contact outsiders in person.

When they are busy exterminating pests, they will tell people from other villages that this person most likely came to the village from another village and is related to Xiahe Village, which narrows the scope a lot.

Many people focused their attention on the young daughter-in-law who just spoke. The young daughter-in-law took two steps back and began to tighten her hands nervously.

The villagers looked away, and the young wife's husband's face darkened, and he was ready to go back and ask questions.

Wang coughed twice, and the village chief said: "In fact, if you want to help other villages, you can directly propose it. After getting the consent of Wen Zheng and the village, we can discuss a suitable method instead of having people come to us and force us to give it to them." .

"Now that the people in Xiahe Village know, other villages may also know. Wen Zheng, you still need to express your thoughts on this matter."

"The village chief sighed.

Wen Zheng knew that there was no airtight wall in the world. Rooster should be more polite. If Tuantuan did this, the trouble would be even greater.

"I don't have any objections. If the village agrees, we can lend the big rooster out, but we can't let others borrow it in vain.

"The village chief nodded. He understood what Wen Zheng meant, but this matter needed to be discussed carefully. The other villagers were not so willing.

"What if the Chicken King goes to another village and is killed by another beast?" "What if someone steals the Chicken King on purpose?" "Do you really want to lend it out?" Borrowing is a must. If you don't lend it, just wait. The people from Xiahe Village came with other villages.

Moreover, with the army of chickens and ducks eating up all the larvae in the ground, there are fewer bugs coming out at night, so the villagers like them have their hands full.

The question now is how to borrow the money. To ensure that the big rooster is obedient when borrowing it, should Wen Zheng go with him? In addition, to prevent other dangers that may harm the big rooster, there must be a few people around him, so he must be careful. Take your pick.

Wen Zheng likes to stay at home. What's the point of going to other villages? He immediately disagreed with the village chief's statement.

These days, he and Tuantuan are still teaching the big rooster. Even if he doesn't follow, there will be no problem. Just choose a few people who believe in it.

Under the villagers' inquiries, Wen Zheng pointed to several young students headed by Huang Yian. These students are strong and strong. The key is that they often come to be trained by him, and the big rooster knows them.

Let everyone go back to rest first. The village chief took the village committee and the elderly in the village to carefully discuss what to do to ensure that the big rooster in their village can be safe outside, and how to negotiate with those villages after they come to the door, so as not to be excessive and to gain some benefits.

These days, every night is busy. Daytime is when everyone sleeps. Basically, at one or two o'clock in the afternoon, most people fall asleep.

After the big rooster returned home, it was treated as a treasure by the villagers and was not taken seriously by Wen Zheng and Tuan Tuan. It still lived in the chicken coop built in the yard. The villagers mentioned it several times, and Wen Zheng built a chicken coop for it alone and absolutely did not allow it to enter the house.

But the big rooster did not like to stay in his single room. He liked to live with other chickens, showing off his status while continuing to teach his younger brothers.

All the villagers were waiting for people from other villages to come to the door again, but no one came that day.

Many villagers had many questions until the evening of the second day after Xiahe Village came.

The big rooster led the chicken and duck army into the fields. Although the chicken and duck army came from all the villagers, the big rooster was raised by Wen Zheng, so he would first work on the fields under Wen Zheng's name.

Wen Zheng and Tuan Tuan were also busy in the fields. When they were busy catching, they heard someone running quickly over here. When they looked up, they saw that it was a child from the village chief's branch, who should be in high school.

There are so many animals going crazy now, and the school has been postponing the start of the semester. Everyone knows that the start of the semester is far away.

When he got closer, the boy started shouting: "Teacher, something happened to the teacher."

"What happened? What happened?" Uncle Huang, who was not far away, asked anxiously.
