Lord of the Tricks

Chapter 31 They pushed me into a hurry

Yu Ziqing stood there for a long time, not knowing whether he was laughing at himself or smiling mockingly.

The more I think about it, the more I understand that no matter what the people fighting outside do, it doesn't matter to them.

After a long time, he took a step forward and shouted loudly.

"Erhan, where did you die? Go and see the people buried in the ground. They have all started to train their bodies. How could they die in the ground so easily? If they were lazy, they would deserve it right now."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the butcher beside him, whose eyes were a little dull and at a loss.

"What are you looking at, hurry up and help, see if anyone is injured?"

Turning his head, he looked at another kitchen lady who was also at a loss.

"And you, what are you doing here? Hurry up and check the food we have in stock, whether the underground mushroom forest has been buried, and the water source..."

"What are you doing in a daze, are you scared stupid? The earthquake is over, move for me, hurry up, don't be dazed."

A group of people who didn't know what to do, immediately moved when they heard this. They didn't need to think about anything else. Now that someone was directing them, they just had to follow the instructions to ease the panic in their hearts and calm down their flustered mood.

Yu Ziqing helped the chief to the side and sat down, and brought the beaten old sheep over.

The old sheep's eyes were a little dim, he whispered.

"Ziqing, I know how to find a way to go back, but I need to at least refine my Qi to the Void Cave Realm, or refine my God to the Yang God, and the longer the time, the farther and deeper I get lost, the more hopeless I am, and here I can't Qi refining, the resources here may not last long..."

Yu Ziqing squatted down, looked at the old man at the same level, and interrupted the old sheep with a light wave. His eyes became calmer, and he said softly.

"Don't worry, the sky won't fall. The more you two elders are now, the more you can't fall. Don't panic. If you panic, this place will be chaotic. If you mess up, you will only kill yourself."

"I really didn't expect it, none of us thought it would affect us in this way in the end."

"Let's stabilize the hearts of the people in the village before we talk about anything else."

Seeing that Yu Ziqing was so calm, Lao Yang came back to his senses and shook his head in self-deprecating manner. The chief also came back to his senses and nodded to Yu Ziqing.

"You're right, we can't give up first."

The head of the village stood up, his eyes became sharp again, he walked towards the village, and began to direct the people in the village.

Yu Ziqing sat with Lao Yang, talking to himself.

"Before you told me that whether it is Dagan or Dali, the bigger the power, the more cherish the feathers. Even if there is a war, they will avoid ordinary people and fight in the wilderness.

At that time, I thought that in the world where Weili belonged to himself, how could it be more peaceful and more disciplined.

Now it seems that no matter where it is, it is actually the same. When you are weak, sometimes you will die without knowing why.

Today I really understand what it means to die without knowing who killed you, and even the other party doesn't know who he killed. "

The old sheep opened his mouth, he was speechless and didn't know how to refute.

After a long time, he could only sigh helplessly. He knew that what Yu Ziqing said was correct. There must be many similar things. It's just that dead people can't speak all the time. Those who can make their own voices and tell others, He has always been a living person, and a living person with a big fist.

Yu Ziqing stood up, walked to the village, and began to help others.

There are more and more people practicing body training in the village, and the manual excavation work is proceeding very quickly. They dig down along the collapsed mine according to their memory.

Soon some miners who were buried inside were dug up, just as Yu Ziqing expected, in such a short period of time, plus those who can dig deep underground, the level of body refining is considered to be relatively high in the village, so they were dug out first are still alive.

While strengthening the mine, everyone continued to dig down, and more and more people were rescued.

Seeing everyone carrying out the rescue in an orderly manner, Yu Ziqing didn't continue to pay attention, and instead went to the mushroom forest to have a look.

The cave where the mushroom forest is located has also collapsed. Fortunately, the cave is not too deep and can be dug down soon.

Not many people were injured in the whole village, and they were basically affected when they left the village. With everyone's physique, none of them were fatal. This is rare good news.

Everything was going on in an orderly manner. When it was time for dinner, Yu Ziqing also organized the kitchen aunts to cook a steaming meal.

In the village, nothing can soothe the confused and confused people like food.

The water source of the village has not collapsed. It is full of hard rocks. Although the water no longer flows, there is still a large amount of storage. Don't worry about it for the time being.

Everything seemed to have recovered temporarily, but on the third day, the head of the village took Yu Ziqing and followed a kitchen lady to the mushroom forest that had been dug up again.

There are brocade mushrooms that have been crushed by the collapse everywhere. Someone is already rescuing those broken brocade mushrooms. They dug them out today and deal with them as soon as possible. They can also be used as food reserves.

But the aunt in the kitchen quietly called Li Chang and Yu Ziqing to show them not these destroyed Jinlan mushrooms.

All the way to the depths of the mushroom forest, some places have not yet collapsed, and there are still looking good Kam Lan mushrooms standing here.

However, Yu Ziqing knew at the first sight of these brocade mushrooms that there was something wrong with these brocade mushrooms, and they were in a completely different state from the ones he usually chops every day.

The opened canopy was slightly sluggish, and the thick stipe was also a little shrunken. Yu Ziqing might not even be able to notice this subtle change if he saw it every day instead of cutting it every day.

He squatted down, dug up the ground, and immediately saw that the underground part of the brocade mushroom had begun to wither.

Several of them were dug in a row, including those that didn't seem to have changed for the time being, and the underground parts began to wither.

Yu Ziqing's face was a little dignified. If this Jinlan mushroom is similar to the fungus in his impression, the underground part is actually the most important part, and the part above the ground is actually just the fruiting body that grows for reproduction.

This means that the village will soon run out of food.

"How long is there enough food in the village?"

"It's enough to feed everyone for three months at least, and it can last longer if you save some money." Li Chang replied.

Ever since Yu Ziqing came up with food that can be stored for a long time, the aunt in the kitchen has never been idle. After finishing her work every day, she began to store food, and it never stopped.

Today, enough food for hundreds of people has been stored for several months.

But even so, after a few months, there will still be a complete shortage of food. At that time, either everyone will starve to death together, or a human tragedy will be staged again. The final result must be that everyone will die.

Yu Ziqing's expression was a little dazed, he stood there for a long time, and suddenly said in a low voice.

"Steady the people in the village and don't panic."

"I'm going to do something, you don't have to come to me, trust me."

"Remember, if anything happens, you must stabilize first and don't panic."

"Even if it is death, I don't want us to die like this."

Yu Ziqing left these words behind and didn't care what the head of the village said, so he walked along the hole and headed for a deeper place. After walking for a while, he collapsed for a while, and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in a blink of an eye.

His expression was a little dazed, and he walked blindly to a deeper place until he reached the end. When he saw the collapsed passage, he dug the passage with his bare hands and continued to go deeper.

After some time, there were only hard rocks left in the ground. Yu Ziqing turned around and sat down leaning on a rock when the road collapsed.

A trace of madness and determination appeared in his increasingly calm eyes.

"If you fight with someone, you can't beat others, and you get killed, then I admit it."

"But I'm not willing to be treated like an ant. I was killed like this. They didn't even know who they killed. I don't even know who killed us."

"Everyone will die here, and in the end, be starved to death here."

starve.

Yu Ziqing's least willing way to die.

"Since this is the case, don't think about it any more."

"They've cornered me now."

"Push me into a hurry, I can do anything!"

Yu Ziqing leaned against the stone wall, muttering to himself.

Day and night, without feeling the passage of time, he just sat there.

After some time, he felt hungry and it was time to eat.

But he didn't respond, he just changed his position and lay down.

……

In the village, the chief looked at the old sheep opposite.

"He dropped this sentence and disappeared into the cave. I don't know what he is going to do."

No one thought that Yu Ziqing had escaped, and the mine had become an isolated island in the void, with nowhere to go.

The old sheep looked in the direction of the burrow.

"What else did he say?"

"Let us trust him, and we must not panic when encountering anything, but be steady."

Lao Yang guessed that Yu Ziqing wanted to find a way out of the predicament, but he could never imagine how they would get out of the predicament under the current situation.

It's too late...

But after hearing what the chief said, the hesitation in his heart gradually turned into firmness.

Recently, he has been slapped in the face a lot, and it is not one or two that exceeded his expectations and beyond the scope of his knowledge.

At least he believed that Yu Ziqing was not the kind of person who would give up on himself.

Similarly, he also believed that Yu Ziqing was a trustworthy person.

"Just trust him, let's stabilize the village."

The chief nodded, then shook his head again.

"You're right, but no matter what, we'll face it together. He's our man. I want to find him. Even if he dies, I won't let him die before my old man."

Time passed day by day, even in today's situation, the village is still well managed by the village head, everyone is flustered, but overall they still maintain their usual appearance.

The chief didn't give up, but he didn't know what method Yu Ziqing used, no matter how hard they dug, they couldn't find him again.

deep underground.

Yu Ziqing already felt his stomach was on fire, and he couldn't feel whether it was hunger or anything else.

The restless qi and blood rushing all over the body became sluggish, and the opened acupoints also became empty.

He had already forgotten the time, he couldn't feel the passage of time, he only felt that the time passed so slowly, his body was getting weaker and weaker, but the hunger had disappeared.

Lying there, I don't want to talk to myself anymore, my mouth is dry, and I don't want to move my tongue to lick my lips.

Consciousness began to be a little fuzzy, and even hallucinations appeared.

He didn't know how long it had passed, he felt as if there was a taste in his mouth, he stretched out his hand and touched his chest, the small cloth bag wrapped with a few pieces of beef jerky had already been opened.

The beef jerky inside, at some point, had already been eaten by him, and only the last one remained.

Yu Ziqing twitched the corners of his mouth slightly. He forgot that he had food on him, but his body did not.

At this time, he saw his arm, which had lost a lot of weight, and the originally raised biceps had turned back to skinny.
