The setting sun was bloody, and the cold wind howled, suddenly several children emerged from the dense woods. They were dressed in tatters, their faces were yellow and thin, like sticks standing upright. Coming out of the woods, the children looked at the official road stained with blood, and shivered abruptly.

"Dougan, thanks to your reminder, let us hide in the woods, otherwise we will be dead souls under the knife." The child who spoke was about twelve or three years old. Although he was dressed in tatters, he had a good spirit. . As soon as he spoke, the children who came out together to find food agreed with him. At the end, he said together that he had been out for a long time and it was time to go back.

"But we didn't find something to eat." Goudan said hesitantly. "Or, let's dig some earthworms (earthworms) and go back."

"The girls at home will be scared."

"Change to me, I will also be afraid."

The children were noisy, but did not change their intention to go home. Without knowing it, they overcame the top of the mountain and returned to the village beside the valley at the foot of the mountain.

Dog Dan's speed is very fast, and he ran to the neighborhood of home as soon as he slid, but when he got home, his pace seemed very slow, as if he was reluctant to return home. His mother was wearing a white-washed cloth skirt that was covered with patches, and she said angrily and funny when she saw the dog egg moving home slowly. "Can't find anything to eat?"

Dog Dan's mouth narrowed and said, "I didn't find it. I originally wanted to dig the dragon and come back. I was afraid that Aniang would not be sick when she saw it. But I see Grandpa eating well, why doesn't Aniang like it.?"

His own cub's tone of suspicion made the dog's mother so hung up and didn't carry it back.

"That's medicine." Gou Dan's mother glared at the nonsense Gou Dan, and said angrily: "The fairy doctor said, Dilong steamed eggs can cure your grandfather's disease. Your grandfather is the whole family. His backbone, without him, how can we live as a family."

"I'm going to see Grandpa."

Gougan made a grimace at his mother, and ran towards the low but neat, yellow muddy upper room on the wall.

Ji Yanzhi's eyes were closed tightly and his eyes were sunken. If it weren't for his slightly undulating breathing, perhaps the dog who had just entered the house thought he was a dead person.

Ji Yanzhi is actually awake.

It was just that when I first came, I was so thin that only a handful of bones were left, and I was lying on the bed unable to move, and I would die at any time.

His body is too poor. It can be said that Ji Yanzhi was sober and didn't have the opportunity to feed himself medicine. He could only let his son and daughter-in-law take care of him, and fed the folk remedy that was said to be good for him-earthworm stewed eggs.

Listen to this ‘Dish Name’, does it feel like the starry sky school of Eagle Country is the leader of the dark cooking world.

Ji Yanzhi wanted to resist, but the problem was that the original owner got tuberculosis and was so skinny that he was replaced by him, and he would have to wait for some time to heal. How could there be any wicked strength to resist. And no matter whether the "earthworm stewed egg" is a dark dish, it is always the heart of his son and daughter-in-law. Even if Ji Yanzhi has the strength to resist, it is not easy to refuse.

"Grandpa. Are you hungry?"

In ancient times, children understood things very early, and many of them were married at the age of fourteen. Gou Dan'er is now ten years old, and can be called an elder child. What he is best at in daily life is to take care of the main heart of the old Ji family.

But Mr. Ji is lying in bed and can’t move. The so-called care is to scrub him and feed him ‘earthworm stewed eggs’, which makes Ji Yanzhi’s ‘medicinal diet’ which ‘smells the color’. Ji Yanzhi felt Goudan's caution, but he refused, he wanted to cry.

"Not hungry."

Ji Yanzhi spoke tremblingly, speaking very laboriously. He didn't really want to talk, and he had to say it, mainly because Ji Yanzhi was afraid that he would not say anything. Goudan's grandson, the pit master, thought that he did not say a word as an acquiescence and that he was indeed hungry, and then "earthworm stewed eggs" 'The tube is full.

God, who will save the poor child.

Ji Yanzhi feels that even if he lives for thousands of years, he is a baby.

Gouganer was cheerful, and began to talk to Ji Yanzhi about today's experience. When Goudan said that they met a group of officials in armor when they went out to find food, and when they had the idea to lead the little friend into the woods, Ji Yanzhi, who had been lying on the bed for half a month, was actually conscious. It's not right.

"Gougan, where is your dad."

Gougan: "Go up the mountain to hunt."

Ji Yanzhi: "Go to your second uncle and younger uncle's house, and call all your second uncle and younger uncle over."

Dog Dan'er: "Master, you forgot again, this year's drought, there was only a drizzle for several months, and there was almost no crop in the fields. Not only Abba, second uncle and uncle, but also dung pit and donkey. The eggs are all over the mountains and the wild looking for food together, and now only Aniang is at home. The second aunt leads the spring flowers, summer flowers, autumn flowers, winter flowers and snowflakes, and went to the river to find out if I can find some water celery to eat. Woolen cloth."

"Dougan, help him up."

Ji Yanzhi struggled to get up, but it was useless. He really couldn't get enough energy. He could only hope in Gou Dan, hoping that Gou Dan could have the strength to help him up, so that he could personally take the medicine from him. Take it out of the space and feed yourself medicine.

I can’t give the medicine to the dog and let the dog to feed himself. Because the time period of his arrival was too unlucky, it happened to be the moment when the original owner was about to die. The original owner is dying of illness, and the family is surrounded by all sides. If it weren’t for no money to buy medicine, would he find the strange recipe of ‘earthworm stewed eggs’ to cure all diseases?

It can be said that Ji Yanzhi's bed is covered with thick straw. There are no tables, chairs, benches, curtains and quilts, and there are, but they are in tatters and have been around for a few years. What should Ji Yanzhi say if he asks Gougan to feed himself medicine? Why not say it in advance?

Obviously there are medicines, why should you let the family become obsessed with your old illness and can't even eat food?

Several sons, including daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter are filial, but Ji Yanzhi has never dared to test humanity too much. So Ji Yanzhi could only slowly and secretly regulate his body, so that it dragged on for half a month. And in this half month, Ji Yanzhi was even more baptized by the powerful dark dish of ‘earthworm stewed eggs’

It is simply not human.

Ji Yanzhi spit silently in his heart, and then he sadly found that he had overestimated the patience of Goudan. Dog Dan, who is ten years old, has no strength to help Ji speak. The eldest daughter-in-law Zhou wants to help, but the question is, as the father-in-law, Ji Yanzhi is embarrassed to speak up and let the hardworking daughter-in-law help?

"Master, if you always remember, wait until Abba, Second Uncle, and Young Uncle come back, let them take you out for a walk in three turns." Goudan comforted Ji Yanzhi very empathetically.

Ji Yanzhi was leaning on the wooden bed, his eyes muddy and absent. After a while, Ji Yanzhi intermittently said: "Go out and play, Goudan, Grandpa wants to sleep for a while." He has to work hard to raise his hands and feed the medicine into his mouth. .

There is already chaos outside, and he has to get better quickly and find a way out for the children and grandchildren of the family, instead of dragging the whole family back. Don't look at Ji Yanzhi lying on the wooden bed without moving for half a month, it is because repairing the dead body is too exhausting.

In fact, in all directions, even if Ji Yanzhi is trapped in square inches and temporarily unable to move, he can still determine the current situation through wind, insects and frogs, and other clues.

Just now I heard Goudan said that they met a group of thieves in armor. After hiding in the woods, they came across refugees who died tragically under the knife of the thieves.

In fact, Ji Yanzhi can guess the plot of "officials forcing the people to rebel" with a little use of his brain. There was a severe drought this year, and almost no crops were harvested in the fields. When Gou Dan'er chatted with him in the past, he once said that he had never received any relief food from the government.

In their entire village, one after another, families left their homeland and fled to other places. Only a few of them are left, all of them surnamed Ji. In addition to the difficulty of leaving his homeland, the bigger reason is that he, the old patriarch, was suddenly seriously ill, so he could only stay in the village. He waited for his death, while the Ji family waited for his burial.

Moreover, the reason why Ji Yanzhi'dragging' healed slowly, apart from being really unable to get up, there are deeper considerations. Although it is hard to stay in the village and find food on the hillside, there is always stuttering. And leaving the homeland to escape famine, thinking that fleeing famine is really that simple? Not to mention natural disasters, even if it is a man-made disaster, it can easily kill the whole family.

It's not that Ji Yan dislikes the stupidity of his three filial sons. The only advantage of the three of them is filial piety, but they are really stupid. On weekdays, I only know the farming work in the dry land. Do I want to go up the mountain to find a few prey to improve my life. Ignore everything else and rely on my daughter-in-law at home.

But the ancient women compatriots are not degrading, but...especially ordinary people really have no knowledge. There is only one acre of land in front of them. Tomorrow they will be around the stove, doing housework, and living by men farming and women weaving.

In other words, in the entire Ji family, apart from the original owner who has studied in private schools for a few years, he has a bit of knowledge and can be surprised by the master.

You really let these three stupid sons flee the famine with their wives and children. Ji Yanzhi is really afraid that the whole family will be reunited in Huangquan before the whole family has taken a few steps. Therefore, it is necessary that his backbone, he really wants to heal as quickly as possible, and then stand tall, to protect the family, together with the dozens of Ji family members who have not left to shelter from the wind and rain.

But goose, how beautiful the imagination is, how cruel reality is.

Ji Yanzhi raised his hand hard and shook his hand quickly. If he shouted, he would shake the rhythm again and again, but after shaking with joy, Ji Yanzhi still did not raise his hand and put it beside his mouth. , On the contrary, because of holding his breath too hard, he let out a loud fart.

Ji Yanzhi: "..."
