[Chapter 469]
Although he said that he wanted to find a solution, Wu Zhongyuan couldn’t think of any solution, at least not yet. At least he couldn’t think of any solution to solve the food shortage problem of the bear clan. At this time, the productivity was extremely low, and the problem of food and clothing had not been solved. There is not enough food to eat without fighting, not to mention the extra consumption caused by large-scale wars.
In addition, the fact that the five seals are about to disappear has been known to the world, but anyone who has a little brain will stock up on grain to prepare for the shortage. At this time, it is several times more difficult to easily exchange rice grains than usual.
The questions reported through the bamboo slips and the requests for instructions were similar, so the palm book wrote the reply. Wu Di took the opportunity to take out some wooden boards from the wooden box, untied the ropes tied together, and removed the wax seal for Wu Zhongyuan to review.
Wu Zhongyuan was already worried, and looking at these wooden boards, the more he looked at it, the more annoying he became. These confidential memorials were not reported on government affairs, but small reports of intrigue. They are all similar in content, and there are also those who compete for favor and loyalty. The only value of these memorials is to be able to see everyone’s temperament and who they have a better relationship with through the content of the memorials. Other than that, it’s useless.
After reading it patiently, Wu Zhongyuan got up from his seat and let out a sigh, “Let’s go, accompany me out for a walk.”
At this time, the director had also finished writing Wu Zhongyuan’s disaster relief decree, and Wu Di ordered someone to carry the bamboo slips. Go down and spread the news separately, then put a cape on Wu Zhongyuan and accompany him away from the palace.
Cloaks of different colors are symbols of the warrior’s identity and status. Warriors of the three ethnic groups wear cloaks throughout the year. The cloaks worn from April to October are thinner and belong to the true sense of cloaks. From October to April of the next year, the cloaks are thicker. It is more appropriate to call it a cloak.
The cloak worn by Wu Zhongyuan is brand new. The two sleeves are marked by bear wizards. The embroidery behind him is not a bear head but a dragon head. He negotiated with the old blind man yesterday to become the Yellow Emperor. It can be seen that this cloak with dragon head embroidery is embroidered on the back. The cloak was made by a large number of embroiderers overnight last night.
Wu Zhongyuan originally wanted to tell Wu Di not to do this in the future, but after thinking about it, he didn’t say it, no matter how difficult it is now, as a Yellow Emperor, you must have a decent dress.
On a cloudy day, there were snowflakes floating in the sky. Wu Zhongyuan did not go to Zuofu Palace or Youbi Palace. After leaving the palace, he went directly to the dwellings in the city. At this time, except for the royal family and nobles, ordinary people only eat two meals a day, he thought. Go and see what the clan eats.
The situation in the city is a little better than he expected, the porridge and rice are not too thin and the quantity is not too small.
The clansmen in the capital are equivalent to the modern urban population. They are mainly craftsmen and soldiers. Their situation is not representative. If you want to see the real situation, you have to go down below. Wu Zhongyuan turned his head and said to Wu Di, “Go back, I will go somewhere else. Go
around.”
“Where are you going?” Wu Di asked.
“I’ll go to the Yicheng and the besieged city below to see.” Wu Zhongyuan said.
“I’ll accompany you.” Wu Di said.
Wu Zhongyuan thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
The two of them went south. After being promoted to Taixuan, Lingkong Feidu could reach eight miles with a single leveraging. The snow in the south was heavier than that in the north.
Daejeon is a grain-producing area with bears. He wanted to come and see the situation here, and by the way, to see if Wu Shouzheng, the city owner, was exaggerating.
The two did not go to Yuancheng or Yicheng, but came to a besieged city. The village was very small with dozens of houses. Big, there was no one outside, and the villagers stayed at home. Wu Zhongyuan almost choked out after pushing open the door, and the house was full of smoke.
Seeing someone open the door,
the people in the room came out, a woman with three children, you can tell at a glance how good or bad their lives are, a family of four is in ragged clothes, in fact, the ragged clothes are not enough to describe their poverty and embarrassment, Because this family of four is not clothed, but has no clothes at all, and their bodies are wrapped in rags, animal skins and straw.
In addition to ragged clothes, Wu Zhongyuan also had three other words that appeared in Wu Zhongyuan’s mind at the same time, with a dish face, a small radish head, and a disheveled face. Some dishes are not thin, but swollen and blue.
Due to the long-term malnutrition, the three children have big heads, similar to the image of the radish head in Zhazidong. It is also possible that the heads are not as big as they appear on the surface, but because the limbs are too thin, the heads appear to be large.
The gray face is because there is smoke in the house, and the family of four builds a fire in the house to keep warm.
The woman didn’t know Wu Zhongyuan and Wu Di, but she knew that the people who wore capes were all officials, and the one wearing the purple cape was the biggest official. She invited them in with diligence and fear, and then she was at a loss as to what to do with the guests. .
The woman
had never seen outsiders and was very nervous. She was even more nervous when she talked to Wu Zhongyuan. Wu Di knew what Wu Zhongyuan wanted to know, so she asked her questions.
After the conversation, Wu Zhongyuan knew that there was a man in this family, but the man went out to fight and hadn’t returned, and the warriors who besieged the city also went out to fight, and were not in the village.
It is very far from Daegu. According to the time, the soldiers who went to Daegu to participate in the battle that day should still be on their way back to the city.
After the corn is harvested, the period until the snow should be the time for men to build houses, chop wood, fish and hunt. Since men go out to fight, women can only do these things, but women are innate in physical strength. Disadvantage, how can it replace the role of men.
The land in the field is very suitable for farming, but at this time the grain yield is very low, and most of the grains have to be turned over after harvesting. The remaining ones are not enough to support the villagers through the winter, and they have to add hunting income to barely make a living, but this year, the man was recruited to fight. They went, but haven’t come back until now, and now the snow has closed the mountain, the difficulty of hunting has greatly increased, the water surface has frozen, and fishing is even more difficult, they are afraid they will starve to death.
The woman cried while talking. Wu Zhongyuan, who was crying, was very uncomfortable. Although he was not responsible for the current situation, these were all his clansmen. Seeing his own clansmen, he could imagine his mood.
The woman’s cry attracted other women in the village. Seeing that they were wearing purple cloaks, and knowing that they were high-ranking officials of their own clan, they cried to them, hoping to be rescued. The child is fine.
Emotions are contagious, everyone is sad and crying, and Wu Zhongyuan’s heart is extremely heavy. Before this, he has experienced many hardships and encountered countless dangers, but no matter what difficulties, he can overcome them, but at this time he Feeling powerless, no matter how high your spiritual level is, it is useless. These things cannot be solved by force. The most urgent task is to find food for the clan, otherwise most of them will not be able to survive this winter.
From entering the village to leaving, the two stayed for half an hour, but until he left, he didn’t have the courage to lift the lid of the house. He didn’t know what was in the pot, but he knew it was definitely not what he wanted to see. .
“Do you want to go anywhere else?” Wu Di asked softly.
“Let’s go.” Wu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice.
The route was chosen by Wu Zhongyuan. He chose to move to the southeast and stopped at five besieged cities along the way. The situation was even more serious than he imagined. All the besieged cities lacked firewood and rice for the winter, just like there were bears. The people below can only last until the end of the month at most. If they don’t get help, they will have to start dying after the year.
At this time, he finally understood why the old blind man didn’t let him run around again, and the current situation did not allow him to do goodbye any more. The search for psychic soldiers could be postponed, and the search for minerals and metallurgy could also be postponed. Save the lives of the people at all costs.
At the time of the watch, Wu Zhongyuan came to the mountain forest where Dasha was. It was snowing here too, and there was no living thing in the mountains. Only Dasha braved the freezing cold in the night to open up the mountain.
Dasha is not as arrogant and cold as Huang Maoer. When he saw him coming, he approached and got close to him. Wu Zhongyuan felt Dasha’s emotions while touching his hand. In addition to the joy of reuniting after a long absence, he also felt intense fatigue and the pain of enduring the cold. .
Dasha is an insect. Insects are cold-blooded animals. What they are most afraid of is the cold. It should not be sent to work in such a cold day. Before this, Wu Zhongyuan was in a bad mood. After seeing Dasha, his mood was even lower , Right now Dasha is already a lot ahead, even if he continues to open up, the barbarians can’t keep up with the cleanup, the weather is too cold, quit it, take it away.
Wu Zhongyuan did not return to Youxiong, but went east with Wu Di on the Dasha. The Yi people did not pay tribute to the Birds this year. They must have extra food and grass, and they had to be cheeky to ask for some.
Although he had promised to shelter the barbarians before, the consensus reached by both parties was that the barbarians would provide them with crossbows and a certain amount of salt for defending the city, which did not include food. This time it was an extra request. speak up?
On the way to the Yiren city, Wu Zhongyuan thought about his senior brother Lin Qingming the most. After the death of the master, he and Lin Qingming had a very difficult life, but Lin Qingming never let him worry about money, and he never talked to anyone else. I have borrowed money, and I have never owed tuition fees. Lin Qingming gave me all the living expenses after I went to college. There is a saying that there is no such thing as a quiet time. It’s just that someone is carrying the burden for you. So he can not be embarrassed or embarrassed, all Lin Qingming is taking care of him.

and now it’s his turn, not only is there no one to take care of him, but there are tens of thousands of people waiting for him to take care of him, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com At this moment, he feels unprecedented Because of the pressure, it turns out that life is not only about fighting and killing with pleasure, but also living and living.
Knowing that Wu Zhongyuan was going to the Yiren city, Wu Di guessed what he wanted to do. Seeing that he was in a low mood, she comforted her, “Let’s wait until we recover and repay them more.”
Wu Zhongyuan smiled wryly and shook his head, no Answering the question, his current mood is the same as if he wants to borrow money from someone else’s house, except that he is embarrassed or embarrassed, except that he is embarrassed or embarrassed.
The weather was cold, Dasha flew slowly, and did not arrive at the Yiren City until the third watch.
In the cold winter and snowy night, who didn’t rest early, when the two arrived, the Yi people had already fallen asleep, and the city was completely dark.
It’s embarrassing to go to someone’s house to borrow money, it’s even more impolite to call someone up in the middle of the night, after a long hesitation, Wu Zhongyuan turned to look at Wu Di, “It’s too late, don’t disturb them, there is a cave nearby, let’s Let’s go there and rest for the night.”
“Okay.” Wu Di nodded in agreement.
Wu Zhongyuan sent out his thoughts and directed Dasha to go to a cave not far away. He and Li Bie had been here before and knew that there was a cave in Dongshan where people could live.
The cave is quite big, and even Dasha can go in. The cave is located at the east foot, and the light of the fire will not be seen by the barbarians.
Wu Zhongyuan packed up the firewood, lit a bonfire from the entrance of the cave, and then sat by the fire and watched the bonfire in a daze.
“If you don’t take over as Da Wu, you won’t have these difficulties.” Wu Di said.
“I am the only remaining royal family of the bear clan, and it is my responsibility to protect them…”
