The sturdy farmer's wife: the prince's favorite concubine

Chapter 435 The Great Disaster Is Coming
Lin Zhichuan is different from other gentlemen. He likes to observe life, and he prefers to teach his students to learn in life, rather than let everyone sit in the school and read dead books. This is why Xie Shaoting thinks that he is a teacher Reasons for being better than others.

As soon as he entered the school, Lin Zhichuan noticed something strange, feeling the conflict between the red dates and Xie Enming, Lin Zhichuan sighed.

"Today we're going to talk about geography in astronomy and geography. I'm going to take you out to see our terrain in southern Yunnan. You all line up well, and we're going out now."

Xie Enming took a look at the red dates, pulled Huahua and went out.

The big guy didn't go far, but went to the forest behind the palace. This place was guarded by people from the palace, so it was much safer for him.

Seeing the bottomless stream, Hongzao was in a good mood. She bouncingly dragged her sisters to the stream, and was just about to wash her hands when she smelled a stench from the stream. Almost fell into the water.

Not far away, there are two unfamiliar women, they should be people living around the palace, both of them are carrying basins for washing clothes, and they just squatted down, and they were almost smoked by the stench .

"My mother, when did this stream become so smelly? How can people wash their clothes? Can people still cook food? Can people still eat? It's hard to let people live. Could it be that they died upstream? what?"

"Don't talk nonsense, even if something is dead, it doesn't necessarily taste like this? Animals in the mountains don't do this. They also drink water. How can they waste water?

My family went into the mountain last time and drove a wolf away. When the wolf was about to die, it didn't dare to go into the water. It was beaten to death abruptly. Besides, the smell came from the water. What kind of animal died? It won't make the whole water stink. "

Hongzao was startled when he heard it, and always felt that something was about to happen, so he pricked up his ears and listened to the two women talking, one of them kept saying that it must be the smell of the water, but the other said that it was probably something out of it. What is the problem? This is a sign of the coming catastrophe.

Seeing that the two women didn't wash their clothes anymore, Hongzao pulled up the two younger sisters and went to look for Lin Zhichuan. Although Lin Zhichuan was their husband, he was also their cousin, and the children naturally depended on him.

But just when she was about to leave, a more terrifying scene appeared.

Hundreds of toads in the creek all jumped to the bank, as if there was a plague god living in the creek, and they would kill them at any time. At the end of the scrambling, it seemed that someone was chasing and killing them.

Watching the toad jumping ashore, Hong Zao noticed that the birds in the woods began to sing one after another, and the sky began to dim gradually, and it became drizzly after a while, and the air exuded an unpleasant smell.

The three ran to Lin Zhichuan, and Hongzao grabbed Lin Zhichuan.

"Sir, there is a smell in the stream. When we were there just now, an aunt said that something serious might happen. Sir, go and have a look, all the toads have come ashore."

Taotao also looked at Lin Zhichuan in panic.

"Sir, go and have a look, I heard them say that there is some serious disaster..."

As soon as Lin Zhichuan heard it, he couldn't care about anything else, turned around and ran to the stream.

Sure enough, there was a smell of rotten eggs in the stream, and the fish and shrimp in the water seemed panicked. After all, Lin Zhichuan had been an official for many years, he stroked the beard on his chin and said.

"Good boy, go back and tell your parents to tell all your family members to come out. I'm afraid there will be an earthquake. Hurry up and ask your father to issue a document to notify all the people in Diannan. Your grandmother's family."

As Lin Zhichuan said, he beckoned to Yang Zili, and asked him to take the rest of the children to find an open place to stand. Hongzao handed the two younger sisters to Yang Zili, and brought out Xiaomi and Mai, ready to let the two of them Go home with yourself.

The three of them ran home uneasy, they were worried about their parents, grandparents, and they were afraid that something would happen to these four close relatives. .

As soon as the three of them got home, Xiaomi went to Qin Xiangjun and Xie Qianyang's yard, while Mai went to look for Xie Shaoting, and Hongzao had to go back to the backyard to find Yang Yuanxiang, but he didn't expect to see Yang Yuanxiang already packing his things as soon as they entered the door.

"Why are you back, Zao Zao? Didn't you go out with Uncle Biao?"

Hongzao grabbed Yang Yuanxiang's sleeve.

"Mother, sir said something was going to happen and told us to go out first."

Yang Yuanxiang nodded.

"Good boy, let's pack up our things quickly. The valuables and the edible ones are all wrapped in oilcloth. There is also an oilcloth at home, which was used to make sails in the past. It will not leak. It is a good thing. Hurry up." Pack all the food and clothing for our family."

Hong Zao saw Yang Yuanxiang flustered, and grabbed her.

"Mom, what's the matter? Is something going to happen?"

Yang Yuanxiang nodded.

"Look at the swallows flying under the ground, and the birds in the forest are screaming all the time, and the snakes, insects, rats and ants are all running outside. Many old people in the house have said that they have seen snakes. Let's clean up quickly and find a safe place. hide somewhere, I reckon that something will happen in just these two days."

Hongzao's heart also seemed to be crushed by a big rock, and he couldn't breathe heavily.

Together with Yang Yuanxiang, she quickly packed up her things, wrapped her food and clothes in a large oilcloth, and then ran out with a lot of pillows and bedding.

"Mother, when do you think this disaster will come?"

Yang Yuanxiang was already standing at the door with Hongzao, and Xie Shaoting put his arms around her shoulders, giving her an inexplicable sense of peace of mind.

"I'm thinking about these two days. I probably won't be able to come today, but it won't be too late. Your grandma said that she saw it once when she was a child. It may be an earthquake. We have such disasters in southern Yunnan all the time. .”

Hongzao looked at Xie Shaoting.

"Father, what is an earthquake, have you seen it before?"

Xie Shaoting was still following Mai Mai, he grabbed his son, looked at his daughter and said.

"Father saw it once when I was a child, but the palace was not affected. We went to an open place first, fearing that the house would collapse and hit people. By the way, what about your sister and elder brother?"

Jujube pointed to the hill not far away.

"Brother took Taotao and Huahua on the hill, and the other children of the Xie family were also there. Uncle Biao has already gone back to grandma's house to inform her. Grandma and the others should also come after a while. Don't worry, Dad. On the other hand, the second elder brother, Xiaomi, went to find his grandparents, and I don’t know if he found them.”

Xie Shaoting smiled slightly.

"Don't worry about this. Your grandparents are sure to be fine. They will come out in a while. Let's wait at the door and pack the bedding and other things first."
