Chapter 9
"Look, there are mountains, fields, and people here. There is a village here." On this day, after some refugees saw green mountains, green waters, fields and crops in the fields not far away, the group of refugees became excited Get up and hurry forward.

It's been less than half a month since Huang Zisu taught the seven shorties Liu a lesson.

On the way to flee famine, the Mid-Autumn Festival was over in a daze.

They walked along this river for another half a month, and there was a fork in the middle of the river, and the Huang family still chose the largest river.

However, there are many old, weak, sick and disabled people who can't compete with others to find food in the river bed, and many people choose to branch the small river and part ways with them.

In the past few days, Huang Zisu found that the more he walked forward, the more and more water in the river flowed. Originally, it was only a shallow layer, which gradually became as thick as an adult's calf and as deep as an adult's knee. Today, the water in the river has reached an adult's waist. so deep.

Moreover, the river bank is surrounded by greenery. Not only can these refugees flee from famine use a few tools to catch fish and shrimp in the river, but there are also some old wild vegetables growing on the river bank, adding a lot of edible food.

Today is a sunny day.

Before they had traveled far, Huang Zisu heard someone shouting: "There are people, there is land, and there is a village."

The members of the Huang family hurried forward, and saw that along the side of the big river, there were patches of patchwork fields, patches of green and blue-yellow on the fields.

Moreover, there are still many people busy in the fields, rushing to collect things.

On the top of the field, there are a series of farm houses built one after another, and behind the mountain is a village surrounded by mountains and rivers.

Now it's time to eat breakfast, and the misty cooking smoke floats from every house in the village, and a picture of the countryside in the mountains is displayed in Huang Zisu's eyes.

"Stay back, back, and go forward, don't blame us for being rude." The villagers in the village prevented the refugees from entering their village.

When the villagers of this village were busy in the fields, when they heard the movement here, those busy villagers immediately held the things in their hands and looked at them, the refugees, vigilantly.

It seemed that if their group of refugees made any move, they would rush forward.

"Why don't you let us go forward?"

"That's right, why?" Many refugees didn't dare to go forward, they only dared to shout.

Because they are all hungry and skinny, and the villagers in front of them are strong and strong, holding weapons such as hoes, sickles, bows and arrows in their hands, and there are even several dogs beside these villagers, staring at the group of refugees madly. shouted.

This made these refugees even more afraid to go one step further.

"None of you fleeing famine is good, your eyes shine when you see food, and you ruined a lot of crops and food in our village.

If you want to find food, go up the mountain to get it yourself. There are a lot of them in the mountain. If you enter our village, if you kill one, you will count as one, and if you kill a pair, you will count as a pair.

You are now refugees fleeing famine, and no one cares if you are killed.

You went up the mountain to get food, and after you are full, walk along the river bank for another hour, and you can rush to the town.

At that time, you go to the yamen in the town to see how to deal with you refugees, whether to settle down or sell into rich and noble people as servants or something, you can choose for yourself. "A man in his early forties walked out of this village, and after showing Huang Zisu and the group of refugees a way up the mountain, he showed them a bright way to survive.

I am afraid that the former refugees came here and saw a lot of food in the field. Of course, they dig the ground hard to find food. Why would they go far away to find food in the mountains? It takes a lot of effort and time. .

Therefore, the villagers in this village spontaneously organized people to patrol and guard their village.

"Let's go up the mountain first, and let's talk after filling our stomachs.
Judging by the appearance of the villagers in this village, I am afraid that some refugees who escaped passed by here before and ruined their crops and food, so they are unwilling to let us enter the village.

Now the villagers in this village are all on guard, and they can't get any news. "Seeing this, Huang Yaozi immediately led the members of the Huang family up the path up the mountain.

Seeing that the other refugees could not enter the village, and saw someone leading the way up the mountain, one after another the group of refugees either went up the mountain, or followed the villagers' instructions to walk along the river and go to the town first.

"Xiaohe, you organize a group of villagers to scatter at the foot of the mountain in the backyard, so as to prevent these refugees from sneaking down the mountain, stealing things from the villagers' homes, and committing crimes." said the young man.

"Father, I know."

.

"Father, I found a cave, it's not stuffy inside, but very cool, it's just down the middle of the mountain.

The cave is not small, enough for our family to sleep in, and we can just live in it. We have been resting here for a day or two, and we are ready to go before we leave. "Huangqin came back from Tanlu and said to his father.

After the Huang family came to the foot of the mountain in this village, Huang Yaozi sent his three sons and four boys in the family to explore the road first, while the female family members sat at the foot of the mountain to rest.

"Father, there is a stream running through the mountainside, and the stream flows along the foot of the mountain into the big river.

I found that the stream is not far from the cave that my elder brother mentioned. I think we can repair a little bit in the cave first, think about it, and make a good plan before we start. "At this time, Huang Lian also came back from exploring the way, and after hearing what his elder brother said before, Huang Lian also suggested.

"Father, we found that there are many wild vegetables in the mountains, but most of these wild vegetables are old. For fleeing famine, as long as they are edible, the old wild vegetables can be eaten.

Moreover, the son also found that the resources in this mountain are very rich, the birds in the forest, and the traces of pheasants and hares are also seen from time to time.

With the level of Susu's bow and arrow, our family doesn't have to worry about starvation, and we don't have to eat half full, we can eat full. At this time, Huang Bai came back with his two sons and reported to his father.

"Why haven't brothers Tiandong and Maidong come back yet? These two boys must have lost their way!" After waiting and waiting, Huang Yaozi asked worriedly after seeing that his two grandchildren hadn't come back.

"The two brothers are back.

Why did you two brats come back so late? It made your grandfather worry too. What happened to the road explorer? Seeing that her two sons had returned, Huang Li felt relieved and reprimanded her two sons a few words.

"Mother, I saw a rabbit and chased it. Fortunately, during this time, I learned bow and arrow from Susu.

Some experience, I hunted a rabbit. "Huang Maidong chuckled, and took out the rabbit hidden behind him.

"Good boy, he looks a bit like your uncle back then.

Susu shot a lot of birds in the morning, and now with the fat rabbit that Mai Dong shot, our family can have a full meal today. "Huang Lian saw the fat rabbit in his nephew's hands, his eyes were shining, he rubbed his hands together, and his mouth drooled.
