The group of people walked and stopped, and finally rushed to find a ruined temple where they could settle down before dark.

It was a mountain temple, the center of the temple was empty, and the scarlet gate that was originally installed on it had long since disappeared. The walls were half-collapsed, and the roof was in tatters, and holes of all sizes could be seen at any time.

The group of people entered the mountain temple. The old man and the children under four or five years old took them in the temple, and the other young men and women and children went outside to collect firewood to find food.

Gougan, Chunhua and Xiahua didn't go with them. The three of them followed Ji Yanzhi and left the mountain temple. There was a small river not far away. Ji Yanzhi planned to go there to see if there was anything to eat.

A thin layer of ice has formed on the surface of the river, which is currently melting at a slow rate.

Ji Yanzhi stood by the river and watched for a while. Through the thin ice layer, small black spots were slowly swimming in the river.

That is a fish, probably only one or two fish.

If it was the past, Ji Yanzhi would definitely be able to hold it and use it to make soup. But now, I am old and old, and I have to be old. I can only ask Goudan, Chunhua, and Xiahua to walk along the river to see if they can pick up aquatic products such as mussels, crabs, and small shrimps. .

If not, then pull out some grass roots, add water and boil it to make a grassy paste, which does not taste good, but at least it will survive.

There is no alternative. There are indeed a lot of good things piled up in the space of Ji Yanzhi, even the simply processed game. If you rely on the inventory of the space, you will definitely be able to easily escape, and there will be no casualties on the way to escape.

But the things in the space, can Ji Yanzhi take it out and use it openly?

It can be, but according to Ji Yanzhi's disposition, he will not take food from the space if he is not a last resort.

Put it this way, he is a horrible old man who is getting old and about to die. He has the ability to be born out of nothing, so he is still honest, eats by his ability instead of using the shortcut of'space', and by the way, brings people who are close to acquaintances and lie down together. win.

Ji Yanzhi sighed leisurely, and watched Goudan's two sisters with deep eyes, and started to follow his instructions to pick up some fingernail-sized fish and shrimps along the river. If you are lucky, you can also see "stranded" small fry with a broad thumb, and crabs with big palms that have been frozen stiff by the sudden weather.

These are all foods, foods that can make people alive when necessary. In fact, without Ji Yanzhi's deliberate reminder, the three-and-a-half-year-old children collected almost everything they thought could be eaten within the naked eye. In a short while, I have collected a small half catty.

As for the adults, they hunted down a scrawny wild dog that didn't know where to fight, even with soup and water, everyone ate a lot of water.

The cold wind blew up again at night, but because of enough firewood I picked up, I didn't feel the coldness relatively speaking.

"Bring all your needles and threads." Ji Yanzhi suddenly said: "My old man, you took the second child's and wife's daughter-in-law to take down the quilted jackets that were'picked up'. I have them. Premonition, it will be cold next."

Dog Dan rubbed his nose and sneezed.

"This weather is cold enough, how cold will it be no longer."

Ji Yanzhi glanced at Dogdan's flushed face, sitting by the campfire without saying a word, closing his eyes and sleeping. He had to conserve his energy, but he didn't have any spare time to pit him with his grandson from time to time.

But Ji Yanzhi ignored it, and Goudan felt embarrassed, so he pouted and walked to the two sisters Chunhua and Xiahua squatting.

The two girls Chunhua and Xiahua were tearing down the cotton-padded clothes that were taken from the dead today. There was an indescribable smell, and the people who were busy with the fire of the bonfire did not dislike them.

In fact, over the years, exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes have been increasing. Ji Yanzhi, even though the small village where they were originally located, is just barely enough for food and clothing, even if the small village where they were originally located is beautiful and fertile. In the event of a disaster, such as a drought that left the entire small village with only a few dozen people, it is really a struggle to survive.

The Ji family has a better life because of the three powerful Han children of Kong Wu. Even Goudan's grandson, the long-term grandson, is a clever ghost. Every time he goes out, he can find something to eat. Ji Yanzhi believes that even if he did not come, when the hail and snow disaster suddenly hit the frost, the Ji family died one after another, and the dog egg was the last one to live.

Far away, in short, the life in Ji Yanzhi's mouth is easy, which is obviously different from what contemporary people understand.

Ji Yanzhi has too many experiences. For a guy like him who may burst into a salted fish mentality at any time, he can barely meet the definition of a good day when he sleeps until he wakes up naturally and counts money and counts. For the ancients, especially the villagers who were accustomed to the sunrise and the sunset, being able to eat and wear is the best day.

It can be said that if it is not a last resort, who is willing to leave their homeland and go to a strange place.

In fact, fortunately, Ji Yanzhi woke up in time on the night when the hail suddenly fell, and promptly made the move to flee the famine with the rest of the Ji clan. Soon after Ji Yanzhi and the others left, a group of soldiers in armor came to ‘request for levy’, saw the village that had been in ruins, and hurried away with an unlucky curse.

In other words, if Ji Yanzhi did not make a timely decision to relocate, the Ji clan, who still had less than a hundred mouths, would be wiped out. The levy in the mouth of the overbearing government soldiers is even more terrifying than the robbery and robbery.

In fact, this is nothing. If the army wants to expand the troops and force the strong, it will be the real disaster. The military disasters since ancient times are not only referring to the intersecting of the two soldiers and harming the people. Ji Yanzhi didn't know these things, even if he knew, Ji Yanzhi would only be grateful.

Now he hasn't slept all night, even if he wakes up groggy in the morning, he is still sad and hail. After a snow disaster, how should he go to the south where the spring seasons are all year round. We must know that the south now is not an area with high-speed economic development in later generations, but a barren area. As the name suggests, it is sparsely populated.

If you go there, you will be alive and well, but at least it will be no easier than going north.

Ji Yanzhi sighed and called out the dog eggs to fetch water from the temple and prepare the pot for cooking. It was a rare and good language to learn whether he wanted to learn martial arts.

Gougan shook his head, desperately. "Grandpa, you are really embarrassed grandson, grandson is not interested in learning martial arts, instead of learning martial arts, grandson should study hard and test fame and glory."

"The idea is good, but it's not realistic."

If it weren't for the war, maybe Ji Yanzhi would still praise Goudan's aspiration. The problem is that now that natural disasters and man-made disasters are coming together, with martial arts, how can he protect relatives and friends better than scholars. It is not that Ji Yan dislikes the scholars who have no power to restrain the chicken, but in the troubled times, most of the scholars are useless scholars.

Ji Yanzhi's old wrinkled face is full of complexity.

"Gougan, now the world is getting chaotic. Reading can make sense, but it can't protect your family well. If Grandpa were you, I would choose..." Ji Yanzhi smiled like this. The chrysanthemum is in full bloom. "...Both civil and military."

Gougan: "Grandpa, don't you value me too much for your grandson?"

"Things that are not promising." Ji Yanzhi cursed with a smile. "Don't you always pretend that you are the smartest person in the old Ji family? How come Grandpa said that if you have both civil and military skills, you will be imaginary?"

Gougan frowned: "But Grandpa also said that now the most important thing is to live, let alone the rest. Grandpa, when you find a new home, is it okay to read or practice martial arts after all?"

Hearing this, one of Ji Yan's grandson directly hushed his face.

In fact, Ji Yanzhi did this too, not intentionally, mainly because when their grandfather and grandson were talking about each other, there was a sudden noise outside the ruined temple. The women and children who were making breakfast looked at their men at the same time, while their men looked at the old patriarch Ji Yanzhi at the same time, obviously waiting for Ji Yanzhi to make a decision.

Ji Yanzhi: "..." There are always people of the race who are not good at using their brains, and have the same attributes as the three Haner.

"...Gougan, help Grandpa, let's go out and have a look." Ji Yanzhi ordered: "Chunhua, Xiahua, you follow your mother, and your aunt takes good care of your sisters and brothers. No matter what sounds you hear, you are not allowed. go out."

Chunhua is twelve years old, and she can talk about marriage after another two or three years. She can be called a half-old girl. Very sensible, one of Ji Yan ordered, he nodded and acted.

This is due to habit. The main reason is that before Ji Yanzhi came, the three sons were all honest and honest, and they couldn't see much on weekdays, but when they encountered things, they were so anxious that they were so anxious.

Fortunately, Old Man Ji is patriarchal, but he loves his five granddaughters very much.

Arranging them to do things is just the norm for the dealers. For the children of the villagers, whether the girl is good or not, the appearance is only secondary. The girl who is hardworking and capable of spinning, weaving and cooking, even if she looks like Zhong Wuyan, will be a matchmaker who will step through the threshold.

Gou Dan supported Ji Yanzhi and cautiously walked out of the ruined temple.

As Ji Yan thought, the reason why the outside of the ruined temple became so noisy was because of another wave of refugees.

They are ragged, with yellow and thin faces, like walking human skeletons.

They had a dispute with Ji Jiaqingzhuang, who had gone out to find food early in the morning. The main reason was that there were refugees whose eyes were red from hunger who wanted to steal the hands of Ji Jiaqingzhuang, who looked like a jackal of a native dog. Ji Jiaqingzhuang will definitely not let the opponent snatch, so no accident, there will be a situation of opposition.

There are many refugees on the other side, but they are all very thin. On Ji Yanzhi's side, there are also many young, strong, young women and children. Generally speaking, the refugees of the two sides look similar on the surface.
