Happy pastoral sturdy little lady

Chapter 165 Yunshan
The two brothers escaped the catastrophe easily, and stayed in the mountain stream for half an hour. After resting enough, Yunwu took out a small cloth bag from his arms and picked a small bag full of berries.After eating and drinking enough, Yunwu turned his back to the east and hid himself in the vast forest.

The resettlement site was brought by Uncle Wu himself.

This place was discovered by Uncle Wu by accident more than ten years ago.At that time, he had just arrived in Shanqian Village and wandered around the nearby mountains every day to pick medicinal materials such as wolfberries and mushrooms.This place, more than 20 miles away from Shanqian Village, is not considered a deep mountain, but it is actually an inaccessible place, and it is very secretive.

In front of a cliff, there is a clump of wild grapes, and the vines of wild grapes are all over the cliff.On the cliff covered by vines, there is a hole, and you can see a cave when you peel off the vines.The cave was dug by hand. Inside is a stone house of about [-] square meters, and there is a stone door on the other side of the stone house.When you open the stone gate, a beautiful valley appears in front of you.

Although this beautiful valley is not as beautiful and magical as the "Peach Blossom Spring", it is also a gift of nature and an excellent refuge.The climate here is a little bit warmer than outside. The peach trees outside the cliffs are just beginning to bloom, but the peach trees in the valley have already begun to bear fruit.

Everyone in the village was surprised and delighted, and cheered.

Xiang Dong was also full of joy, and said with a smile to Yun Wu: "When my leg is healed, I will definitely go out in person and bring Erya in!"

Yun Wu also nodded happily: "Okay, take care of your wounds! When your wounds recover, I'll go pick up Erya with you!"

Now, the wind outside is too tight, Shao Yao and the bandit Ah San are like two mad dogs.It is conceivable that once these two people find Xiangdong and Yunwu, they will definitely hold on tightly.This place must not be violent, otherwise, everyone will go far away and wander around.Young people are better, the key is that grandma, grandpa and the old patriarch are all very old, and they really don't have the energy to go far away!

A few days after he finished speaking, Tan Hai took Aunt Pan's family to find him. Tan Hai had never been to this place before, so he only knew the approximate location.Seeing how secret and safe this place is, and how comfortable and pleasant the climate is, he thought of the dark secret room in Erya's house, and couldn't help feeling deeply regretful.

"Oh, if I had known that the conditions here were so good, I should have insisted on bringing Erya out! Hiding in a secret room is really not a long-term solution, and she has a body, and she has lived in such a closed place for a long time. not good!"

Tan Hai couldn't bear it anymore, so he babbled about Yunwu.

Yun Wu took it for granted: "Yes, taking people out should be the best strategy. Staying in the secret room, apart from the bad air and the inability to move freely, there is also a big hidden danger."

"What hidden danger?" Tan Hai was shocked, his face turned pale with fright.

"Just in case someone guesses that there is an underground secret room or tunnel, and if the house is burned down, Erya will not be able to stay in the secret room! In addition, if the other party finds a skilled scout, the exit of the secret passage is also extremely difficult. It is possible to be discovered! If this is the case, wouldn’t it be very dangerous? To put it bluntly, it’s like beating a dog behind closed doors and catching a turtle in a urn!”

"Hey, what should I do? This is not good, very bad, I have to pick him up quickly!" Tan Hai couldn't help stomping his feet.

"The rumors are too tight these days, so I'd better wait a little longer, so as not to do bad things with good intentions and hurt Erya's family. After a few days, Xiangdong's injury has recovered, and we can go a long way!" Yunwu pondered for a while , a decision was made.

When I mentioned it to Xiang Dong, Xiang Dong also agreed: "Okay, I have also visited the secret room and tunnel of Erya's house. Well, the ventilation and lighting are actually okay. Stay for another ten days and a half months, isn't it? Just a question, let's go together when my legs are healed!"

Xiangdong was also worried that if Tan Hai and Yunwu were the only ones to go, the wind would be so tight.Erya is a healthy person, if Shao Yao and her people are eyeing her, if she can't run quickly, then she will have to wait for death.

Erya didn't know that everyone was worried about her and thought about her. She hid in the secret room during the day and went back to sleep in the bedroom on the ground at night.There is food and drink, and life is not bad, but I am very worried about my eldest brother and eldest sister.

Da Ya, who is far away in Peach Blossom Valley, is also very worried about cheap father, elder brother and Er Ya, especially Er Ya, she is pregnant!It's just that there is nothing to worry about. The mountain is surrounded by soldiers, and there is no way to go down the mountain.

Why is this mountain surrounded by soldiers?

She never thought about what this had to do with her.However, in fact, it really has a lot to do with her.There are two reasons for the soldiers to encircle the mountain: one, it has something to do with the clear water, because he disappeared at the foot of this mountain; to death.So, she spoke to the general who led the army and told the general that there was a secret passage leading to the top of the mountain.There are only a few families living on the mountain, and the "fugitive from the whole country" (meaning that the water is clear and shallow) must have been taken in by the people on the mountain!

The general was overjoyed when he heard this, and arrested and tortured several villagers in Tianjia Village, and finally got the answer he wanted, proving that what Shaoyao said was true.Then it was announced that they would set up camp around the mountain, and wait for the rabbit to come and force the people on the mountain to come out.From time to time, there will be a blanket search of the mountain, trying to find the secret passage.Tens of thousands of soldiers were stationed at the foot of the mountain, and they couldn't go down the mountain. Seeing that the food stored in the mountain was decreasing day by day, Da Ya was so anxious that her lips were almost bubbling.

Shui Qingqian saw it in his eyes and felt the pain in his heart, so he burrowed into the woods.Every time I come back, I will bring back a basket of mushrooms, wild vegetables, and some prey.There are enough mushrooms, wild vegetables and prey every day, so that the food consumption will be less.

However, food is still decreasing day by day at a distressing rate.The sudden "retreat" of the space disrupted Da Ya's plan and position, and it can be said that she was caught off guard.

Shui Sheng's family didn't have much food in store.There is no other reason, just because it is not easy to transport a large amount of grain to this mountain.In addition, before Shuisheng rescued Shui Qingqian, he planned to go to the market several times in the next few days, transport the grain back to Mrs. Tian's house with a bullock cart, and then slowly move the grain up the mountain.Who knows, so many things will happen, and the descent will become dangerous.Now, there is simply no way to go down the mountain.

"What should I do? There are more than 50 catties of rice and [-] catties of paddy left at home. With so many people in the family, it won't last for a few months." Gu Yu frowned, frowning.

Shui Sheng was also very worried: "That's right, the military camp at the foot of the mountain is very well built, and it is estimated that it will be stationed for a long time. According to Mr. Shui's guess, we will be trapped on the mountain for at least a year. Perhaps, the time will be longer. As for the food problem, we must rely on our own efforts!"

Gu Yu said with emotion: "Fortunately, everyone listened to Da Ya's words and reclaimed a large area of ​​crop land. Last year, Xiangdong expanded the land a little bit. Now it should be two acres in size, right?"

Shuisheng nodded: "There should be two acres. Now it's the season of spring plowing. We must make good use of that land. Don't take it as seriously as before!"

More than five years ago, since Daya's accident, Shuisheng often helped to find Daya, and he didn't have enough energy to take care of the land.Xiao Shitou's grandma just planted some vegetables, melons, fruits, and some corn on that piece casually, and didn't plant any crops in a serious way.There are many wild animals in the mountains, and the vegetables and fruits in this area are often spoiled by wild animals, and the harvest is very poor.

After Gu Yu married, he asked Shuisheng to dig deeper and enlarge the traps around the ground, and planted a circle of thorns and hedges.In addition, check and repair the traps from time to time, and the vegetables and fruits grown in this field can avoid being ruined by wild animals.However, the family is small, so Gu Yu became pregnant not long after she got married.Today, Xiao Nianyue is only a few months old, so Gu Yu only grows vegetables and fruits in that piece of crop land, and there is also a portion of corn.The food we eat is Shuisheng going to the market twice a month, selling some prey, and bringing back dozens of catties of food, which is enough for a family of four.

However, in the current situation, it is obvious that more crops must be grown.Not only that, but also to reclaim a lot of wasteland, so that everyone will not go hungry.Although there are a lot of prey in this mountain, you can't just eat meat, don't you eat rice?

Da Ya dug out a dozen sweet potatoes from the warehouse of Shuisheng's family, and finally let out a long sigh of relief: "Very good, it's good to have sweet potatoes! This kind of thing is easy to grow, and it can adapt to any soil quality. Moreover, it doesn't need To cut down a large number of trees, you only need to cut down one tree at a distance."

According to Da Ya's understanding, the land for planting sweet potatoes does not need much sunlight, right?As long as there is sunlight and the necessary water and fertilizer are not lacking, sweet potatoes should grow well.

Gu Yu is also very pleased. The sweet potato crop is indeed relatively easy to grow, and the yield is quite high. It can also be used as a staple food. It is very hungry and durable. It is a good thing!

On the vegetable field in front of her house, Da Ya carefully prepared a row, cut the dozen or so sweet potatoes into pieces, and buried them in the soil.Around the vegetable field, deep traps have been dug, and thorns and hedges have been planted to prevent wild animals from breaking in and spoiling the vegetables and fruits.

After planting sweet potato seedlings, Da Ya personally chose a relatively fertile and flat forest, and led everyone to cut down trees, planning to come out in a whole crop field.This time, there is an extra Shui Qingqian who is superb in martial arts, and the progress is much faster than before!
It would take three days for Da Ya and Gu Yu to saw a tree that is more than a hundred years old.It would have taken five days for Shuisheng to hack with an axe.But with the same axe, it takes half a day to finish a tree with clear water.

Wow, it's amazing, it's really amazing!

Da Ya was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

In other words, after experiencing so many things in these years, she has basically never been dumbfounded!In the past few days, Shui Qingqian has been following her. When she went to pick mushrooms, he also followed; when she went to "detect" the forest suitable for reclaiming, he followed not far away, "protecting" her while hunting. Safety.

After a few days of getting along, she can naturally see that his martial arts should be superior to hers.However, it took only half a day to get a hundred-year-old tree, isn't that amazing?You must know that the trees on this mountain, as long as they are more than 30 years old, are very difficult to cut.To cut down a tree, you have to waste an axe. Fortunately, she had planned for a long time and purchased more than 30 axes in advance.

Otherwise, this matter of land reclamation would not be able to proceed.The forest is so lush that the sun can't get in. How can I grow crops?Photosynthesis is very important for plants.

With a top ten free labor force, the water is clear and shallow, and another two-acre cropland, freshly baked in no time.This piece of land was divided into three by Da Ya, and corn, soybeans and peanuts were planted.Among them, one acre of corn is planted, and half an acre of soybeans and peanuts are planted.

After planting this field, everyone, under the leadership of Da Ya, went to a place about one mile away from the second land to cultivate new land.
