Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 159 Trouble!
The whole afternoon was spent in such tinkling sounds.

But the fat-stealing bird stopped crying after a long while. Reluctant to the constant noise of pinching back and forth, it could only stretch out its wings angrily, and covered its ears with its head.

Although the texture of Danyu is soft, it takes a lot of effort to grind a large bag, but Wen Shu has great self-confidence and endurance, and when the sun sets, there is still a small part left unfinished.

There was still cold noodles for dinner, and Father Wen still ate alone, while Wen Shu pretended to be.

It may be that she worked too hard in the afternoon, and at night, she was obviously much hungrier than at noon, but she was not as hungry as usual, only half hungry, so she continued to bear it.

After dinner, Uncle Sun came to see her father again to watch a play in Wazi. Wen Shu's heart moved after hearing her father's departure. After her father left, he carried the fat-stealing bird into the kitchen, threw two steamed buns to it, and shut it down too. The gate followed.

She also went to Wazi, but it was not Zhangjiawazi where her father and grandson often went, but Chishanwa, which was two streets away.

Chishan tile is the largest tile in the north of the city. There are more than a dozen Goulan seats inside, and there are stage, backstage and audience seats in the Goulan.There are many performances, including storytelling, singing, drama, shadow puppetry, Sanyue, dance, corner play, acrobatics, etc.
What her father and Uncle Sun love to watch most are Zaju and storytelling, and they only need to pay five Wen to watch them for half an hour.

In addition to the Goulan, there are wine shops and tea houses, large and small shops in Wazi, besides fortune tellers, drug dealers, hairdressers, and old clothes sellers.

That's why she came here today.

After entering Wazi, Wen Shu went straight to a stall selling old clothes in the southwest corner, ignoring all kinds of hustle and bustle. The stall was set up by a young man in his early twenties.

It’s true to say that it’s a buddy, most of the people who come here to sell used clothes are the buddies of the pawn shop, and the old clothes sold are all pawned by customers when they need money urgently.

The clothes on the stalls were of good or bad quality, ranging from nearly [-]% new brocade clothes to ordinary cotton-padded clothes and thin shirts of mediocre quality.

You can't afford brocade clothes, luxurious clothes, and comfortable clothes, and you don't need them.Immediately, his eyes fell on the basket of ordinary cotton-padded clothes and thin shirts of average color
After some selection, Wen Shu finally chose two thin shirts and trousers of about the same size as hers, and a set of cotton clothes.

The materials of the thin shirt and trousers are all ordinary, and a brand new suit in a tailor shop costs only a hundred yuan, so it is much cheaper for her to buy a used one.

The clerk quoted a price of [-] renminbi, and Wen Shu negotiated with him for [-] renminbi at last.

Although the outer material of that cotton coat is also ordinary, the cotton inside is new flossed cotton. The clerk raised the price very high at first, and he only opened his mouth for two hundred cash.

Wen Shu took his time and fought with him calmly, and finally won the eighty essays.

The three outfits only cost 160 Wen. Wen Shu was very satisfied. If it weren't for the fact that these were the only ones at the stall that fit her figure, she really wanted to buy a few more.

Back home with a big burden, her father hasn't come back yet.

Wen Shu went to the kitchen to look at the fat-stealing bird again, but seeing the steamed buns that had been thrown on the ground before, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Oh, it's quite a challenge!
But I can also understand, after all, I used to eat meat every day, and suddenly changed to vegetarian, it was really difficult to accept for a while.But given the family's situation, she couldn't afford to buy meat for her, since her family couldn't afford it.

However, it was not impossible, she was about to enter the iron box, why not bring it in together and let it find food by itself.

As for whether it would take the opportunity to fly away, Wen Shu glanced at its injured leg.

Most likely not.

After all, she didn't do anything and threw it in the yard for a whole day. If it could fly, it would have flown by now.

As for the small probability.
Wen Shu said that's okay, if it really doesn't want to stay, it's useless to force it, and it can't be tied with a rope all the time.

After making up her mind, she immediately took the fat-stealing bird to the room, then opened the iron box, and entered the world of mountains and seas.

[Di—landing place—Guangshan]

As the notification sounded, Wen Shu's feet fell to the ground this time.

No overboard, good, good.

It didn't rain either, better, better.

It just seems like something is wrong?
It didn't take long for her to wonder, and the moment she opened her eyes, she knew something was wrong.

Night, it was night!
After going in and out so many times, this is the second time I have encountered the night.

The first time was Xunmi Guzhi, the wind and rain that night was unforgettable to her, and now, it is not much better than that time.

The wind was blowing from all directions, there were no stars or moon in the sky, it was pitch black, and you couldn't see your fingers.

Once a person is in the dark, it is easy to feel fear, just like Wen Shu at this time, facing the dark surroundings, her heart is full of panic.

It felt like there were fierce beasts hiding all around, and they might pounce on her at any time and tear her to pieces!
"Quack~quack"

Just when she panicked in her heart and fell into the horror scene that she imagined, the fat-stealing bird in her right hand suddenly struggled and screamed.

This movement woke up the frightened Wen Shu. She hurriedly put down the fat-stealing bird, and then quickly took out the torch and dry wood from the storage basket.

The dry firewood in the storage basket was collected by her in her own kitchen. There are flammable wood flowers and small pieces of firewood that have been burned, all of which are leftovers from the shop.

It was originally used to prevent dry firewood from being found in rainy days, or to keep warm in snowy days, but I didn't expect to use it in advance.

As soon as the fire was opened and the mountain wind blew, the flames ignited. Wen Shu used his hands to block the wind and ignited the wood flower, and then put a small piece of dry firewood on it.

As the fire grows bigger and bigger, the world around them finally has a glimmer of light.

But before she could breathe a sigh of relief, she became frightened again the next moment, not because she saw any ferocious beast, but
on fire!
Under the light of the fire, the dead grass is all over the ground, and the leaves of all the trees that can be seen around have almost fallen off.

The more Wen Shu looked at it, the colder her heart became, it's autumn here!
With the dry weather and the howling mountain wind, even a small fire can start a prairie fire, and she lit a fire!
Just when she was stunned, the fire took advantage of the wind and had already ignited the withered grass around it, and it had the tendency to climb up the big tree.

Seeing that the fire was about to spread into one piece and spread to the mountains and forests, Wen Shu stomped her feet anxiously, but there was nothing she could do.

How would she put out the fire without water and tools.

The only fortunate thing is that the southeast wind is blowing at this time, and the wind is blowing forward, so the fire is also spreading forward and to the left and right.

And as long as she doesn't go forward, she won't be surrounded by fire, because she hasn't been affected behind her.

But even if the fire burns down the forest, she can't do it, after all, it's because of her.But outside, a person who set fire like her is enough to be sentenced to death.

Just when she blamed herself and was afraid, a gust of wind suddenly blew up behind her, and then the fat-stealing bird's cry of "quack~quack" sounded behind her.

Wen Shu looked back in joy and shock, and saw the fat-stealing bird spreading its three-foot-long wings and fanning forward non-stop.

Every time it flaps, the flame in front of it goes out one foot more.

However, the mountain wind was too strong, the trees were dense, and the fire spread extremely fast. The fat-stealing bird hurt its feet and could not run or fly. Therefore, it could only fan the fire in front of it, but not the fire in the distance.

Seeing this, Wen Shu threw away her fear, turned around, raised the fat-stealing bird, and chased after the flame.
