Chapter 233 The Great Drought
Looking at the glaring sun, Lu Ming helped the old man up and let the old man lean against the tree trunk again after half-delaying.
"But the water is running out." Do you really want to share it with him?That bowl is so big.He felt that the old man's bowl could hold all the water in his water bladder.
Can I change the bowl?
Glancing at the comatose old man, his pitiful appearance made it impossible to repent.Lu Ming poured a bowl of water into the old man's bowl as promised, and then carefully fed the old man with water.
Although the person is in a coma, he still has the consciousness to drink water.When the water touches the lips, it will swallow spontaneously.This drink is three bowls.
"Okay, it's time for me to be thirsty! It's a big loss." Lu Ming muttered, shaking the light water bag in his hand.He complained on his mouth but didn't see any dissatisfaction on his face, a typical knife-mouthed bean curd heart.
Leaving a piece of pie beside the old man, put away the water bag, and move on.In fact, it doesn't work. He asked the old man and he guessed it.Even a person who once held a pen was forced to become a beggar, and he was so thirsty that he missed others.
On the knuckles of the old man's fingers, there are calluses left by people who have held pens for a long time.He didn't know the identity of the old man, and he didn't want to pry into other people's privacy.
However, the situation of the old man is suspicious!No matter how confused a scholar is, it shouldn't be like this.At this time, his brain should play its huge role.
You should think about why and what to do next.
A leaf knows autumn.
Drought is coming.There was a severe drought, which is why the water shortage is so severe.Without water, there is no food.The world will be chaotic, and the situation is prone to turmoil.He can't control others, the only thing he can take care of is his own little family.
He has fallen behind by failing to prepare in advance, and in order to cope with the future where food shortages are likely, he cannot even have no rations.
The whole family is counting on it!
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous mast.
Even if he spends money, he wants to buy back grain and some seeds by the way.Who knows when this drought will end.
They also need to plant drought-resistant and easy-to-eat crops, and they must always leave a way out for themselves.
After all, when the drought broke out in full swing, there was no hope of buying food with money, because there was no way to find people who sold the food.
In addition, there are also warm and cold-proof clothes, which must also be solved together.
Although winter is still far away, it’s not particularly far away, right?It's always going to be winter, even if you don't need cotton clothes now, you will be more at ease if you have a bottom for everything.He always has a feeling that a protracted battle will start.
In fact, the real situation is almost the same as what he guessed.Only one thing he guessed wrong!That is, there are not many people with foresight.As a result, countless people died in this drought.
Feeling the weight of the silver in his arms, the thoughts in his heart became firmer.I'm glad they don't lack silver.Lu Ming pursed his lips, pulled the pannier behind his back, raised his feet and walked firmly towards the town.
The wind cannot hold the sand, nor can it hold the sand.
"Grab it! Hurry up! There is food here."
Whenever such a signal is sent out, a group of fierce people will be seen surrounding it, and the food will be taken away in bags, and occasionally the bags will burst.When the fierce people leave, more people will pass by.It's just that these people can only collect the grain spilled on the ground when they pass by.
What Lu Ming saw made him completely confused!
The township is not as safe and stable as he thought, looting is very serious, even if you want to stop it, you have no strength.The world has changed.
Taking a detour, I came to the back of an unremarkable medicine store, and quietly entered through the back door.The lush scene isolated Lu Ming from the outside world.
There is a warehouse under the medicinal material store, where there is a lot of food.And this secret is only known to him.This house was actually left to him by his master.Herb stores are just things to put on the bright side.
That's right, he is a little monk.It may be a joke to say it out, because he is only able to practice the third level of qi.Moreover, even a simple small flame cannot be ignited.
He lost the face of his master.
He knew he was not qualified.The master told him from the beginning of teaching him to let him practice spells.That's why he never insists on cultivation, and everything goes with the flow.
What moved him was that his master was very kind to him and never disliked him, and he was never dissatisfied with him until he died and left him.There is no way to repay the kindness of knowledge.The master is a good man, never asked him to use anything to repay, it can be seen that he treats him sincerely.
He can only repay him by doing good deeds.
As usual, light incense, burn incense, and kowtow.
"Master, the unfilial apprentice has come to see you!" The bell jingled, as if his master was responding to him.Suddenly, a kit fell from the room.
Lu Mingping stretched out his hand and easily caught the kit.
Scenes of the past are recalled.
"Teacher, remember the appearance of this kit"
"It's red"
"Yes, it is red, so do you remember?"
"remember"
"Good, good!"
......................................................
Lu Ming opened his eyes and looked at the small kit in his hand.
He was still young at that time, and he didn't remember many things very clearly.The fact that the master asked him to remember this kit has long been forgotten, and if he hadn't seen this kit again today, he would not have remembered it.
"Master, thank you for thinking about me, a silly boy! Master's great kindness, don't dare to forget it"
