Traveling through ancient times to flee from famine, take the time and space gate with you

Xiaoling didn't know how far it was because he didn't know how to do arithmetic. Jiayin knew it was at least five miles away, but since it was an empty village, there shouldn't be any danger.

Everyone followed Xiao Ling and continued to walk forward along the path. Anyway, their direction did not change, heading south. They would only detour when encountering danger.

After walking for an hour, we arrived at the village Xiao Ling was talking about. It was a very small village, with only about ten households. The adobe houses had collapsed. It didn't look like they were abandoned after the Yue invaders came.

It must have been abandoned long ago.

They went into those houses and took a look. They were all empty and had nothing. There was a well in the center of the village, but it had been dried up. It was possible that the villagers left the village because the well was dried up. In the past two years,

A severe drought will only make life more difficult in a place like this where there are no two sides to rely on.

They looked at the large area of ​​land nearby. They used to be fields, but now they have become barren meadows.

Fang Yunping sighed and said: "It seems that the rain only fell on our side, and it never rained here at all. The weeds don't look like they grew this year. They should have been from before, and no one has taken care of them. If

If it rains here, the grass won't be dry like this."

Jiayin rolled her eyes after hearing this. She seemed to have heard her father say before that she was too young and the rain could only cover such a large area. It probably only included Qiyang County, right?

Then I couldn't help but think, should we let it rain again at night? But if they were sleeping in the open air, would they get wet from the rain? After all, there was no place to put the food or anything, and there was nothing to cover it. After all, the tents were all set up with tarpaulins.

She looked at the village again. If there were houses that could shelter from the wind and rain, she could take shelter from the rain. But after looking at these houses, she scanned them with her spiritual consciousness. There were more than a dozen courtyards, and none of them had a good roof.

Either it collapsed or there was a big hole. After thinking about it, I might as well forget it and walk forward to take a look!

Fang Yunping discussed with everyone and decided not to stop here. After all, it was not yet noon, so he should continue on his way.

The group of people continued walking forward and passed several villages on the way. They were all in the same situation as the first village, with the houses collapsed.

When it got dark, another village appeared on the roadside. This village was slightly larger. They decided to rest here. Even if the roof leaked, it was better than setting up a tent. At least there were four walls to block the wind, right?

As a result, we actually found a few better houses in the village. They said they were better, but there were no big holes in the roofs.

There are three wells in this village, but none of them have fragrant water. I know that if there was water, no one in the village would leave.

Looking at the water in everyone's bamboo tubes, Jiayin decided to let it rain once. Even if it leaked, it would be best to cover the tarpaulin on the roof first, and it shouldn't be a big problem.

Just as they were told, they pushed the cart into the yard and put it away, and the horses were led into a room.

A cool breeze suddenly started blowing outside, dark clouds gathered, and thunder rolled in the sky...

Everyone was startled and ran out quickly. Before the rain came, they unloaded everything from the car and put it inside the house.

The young and middle-aged people stepped on the walls and climbed onto the roof. They covered the leaky areas with straw mats and tarpaulins, and then pressed them with adobe bricks.

The thunder continued for a long time and the rain did not fall.

After they sorted out six rooms that everyone could fit in, they put five horses and Liuliu in the same room, and made a lot of hay to spread on the ground.

Fortunately, there were a lot of weeds outside, so it was easy to get some weeds. After laying them on the ground, we also picked up all the rotten wood outside and brought it into the house, and then squeezed out an open space for making a fire.

It is already relatively cold today, and with the rain, it will only get colder at night. Without a fire, the elderly and children may not be able to hold on.

As soon as they finished packing and entered the house, heavy raindrops began to fall, as if they were stuck...
