The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 34 We Are All Night Blind

Yan's second son finally understood why Lao Yan said it was difficult to travel at night.

Only then did he realize that he was night blind.

Their whole family and even the whole village are.

It is good to be at home, but walking outside at this moment, everyone has become blind, and can only see the very short road under their feet.

The surroundings are pitch black, only illuminated by the moonlight, and it is impossible to see what is in front of it.

There is a wind blowing, rustling all around, and then suddenly a black shadow flies across the air, which can startle people into a cold sweat.

A villager only lit four torches, from beginning to end.

In this way, even if you can't see the way, you can follow the fire without getting lost.

They had been walking for two hours, and it was the direction his brother had set, not the usual way to the town.

At first, they were all country roads, until just now, they embarked on a relatively flat dirt road.

That is to say, the official road connecting the various prefectures and counties.

Yan Huaiwen asked the team to stop, and everyone rested their feet, fed the animals, and ate something. After a quarter of an hour, they went on the road.

I heard that it was only a quarter of an hour, and the whole team was in a hurry.

Help the old man down for a walk, eat something and drink with the whole family, and then take turns to solve the hygiene problem.

Quilts, mats and the like, hurriedly put them on the car.

Accidentally, the child in his hand ran away without a trace. The parents had to shout, and finally got it back. After slapping the buttocks twice, the child began to cry.

The chicken was frightened and flapped its wings, and the donkey also added to the chaos, barking twice...

What a picture of villagers making noise on the road at night.

"Our cow..." The more Yan Huaiwen walked, the more he felt that something was wrong. He had ridden in a carriage, not to mention an ox cart, but this was the first time he had seen such a powerful cow like his.

Yan Laoer took over the conversation, and said sadly: "Do you think it's too expensive! Brother, you have to take me with you when you buy things in the future. You won't even bargain, and you spend more money for nothing. If I go to buy things, at least I can save two dollars." Two silver coins!"

"No, our bull is a bit strong." Yan Huaiwen said.

Yan Laoer: "What's the matter, people are also strong, and our family's three treasures may be the strong bull among the cows.

Yes, I'll have to feed it all the time. "

Yan Huaiwen thought about it and thought it made sense.

People are different, and cattle cannot be generalized.

Yan Lao Er pretended to feed the cows, and the three treasures were eaten as soon as they were given, and they would not make a fuss if they were not given.

Later, he accidentally fed too much. What do you think, the three treasures stopped eating!

Hey! Just say that our cow is smart or not.

The simulated cow is quite in place.

"Brother, how long do we have to go?" Yan Er Er asked.

"Thirty miles to a station, it shouldn't be far away. Let's take a rest near the station." Yan Huaiwen replied.

"Is the inn allowed for us to live?" Yan Laoer asked a silly question.

Yan Huaiwen looked at his ignorant younger brother, and sighed: "The post station only accepts officials, I can't wait, I have to stay far away."

If it was a large-scale escape from famine, it would not be a problem, but they left too early, and it would be very troublesome if they were questioned by the guards.

First, there was no way to lead them, and more importantly, the whole village fled to avoid paying grain taxes.

"It's best if someone can investigate first, and when they see the post station, they will come back and tell us that we will avoid the small road and then turn back to the official road." Yan Huaiwen said.

"Are we afraid of meeting officials?" Only then did Yan Laoer realize it, right! We are no longer good citizens. We don’t pay taxes or food. We should be what my daughter said—refugees.

"Then why should we go the official way? Let's take the side road." Yan Er's sense of crisis came up. Not only did he have difficulties in survival, but he also had problems with his identity.

"If you don't follow the official path, how can you determine your position?" Yan Huaiwen's face turned dark.

Yan Laoer was dumbfounded and didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Yan Yu waited for his uncle and elder brother to go for convenience, then sneaked up to her father.

"Father, we don't have a detailed map. Uncle took the road map and I read it. Only by going down one by one, can we not go wrong."

"I still have to hide from the post station and turn the path. It takes a lot of time to walk. Look at the back, those who walk on their legs are exhausted." Yan Laoer is the one who can't bear to walk behind.

"Hey, if you can get the road map there and show it to Sanbao, I think it will save a lot of trouble. How many miles we have traveled and whether the direction is right, Sanbao should be able to count and correct it. This is the most basic function.

Dad, we must unremittingly develop the functions of the Three Treasures, it is the biggest help for our family at present. "Yan Yu whispered.

Yan Lao Er glanced around and said, "Girl, let's agree, these mules and donkeys in the village can't be replaced with smart ones, if one day they want to kill them for meat, good guy, the knife will be blown away."

"For sure, those mules and donkeys don't belong to our family." Yan Yu said again: "Father, you have to take turns driving the cart with your uncle and brother. We won't walk at night every day. From now on, try to let them drive during the day and rest at night. You're going to take the job of the night watch, and it's convenient for us to do anything at night."

Yan Laoer immediately understood that what her daughter was talking about was the platform that opened at midnight.

"Yes, you can't let him and his father idle, and only tire me."

"And father, you can find a chance to find out what the uncle's tone is, and see what regulations he has. People in the village point to him to make decisions, but I think the uncle's words are not down-to-earth, and the villagers are struggling to listen. You have to help Talking and talking, how to say it bluntly, so that the big guys can understand." Yan Yu shook his head and said clearly.

Yan Laoer nodded all the time, "No, I also found out that your uncle is a scholar who can't let go of his airs, and he likes to keep his words in half, and he doesn't make preparations beforehand, so he doesn't say anything unless he is asked.

We old people can't keep walking on the road, how long we walk, how long we stop, and we don't have to explain it. The people in our village are also real, and we just follow along without asking anything. "

"There are a lot of problems, how far do you walk every day, when to rest, when to eat, who is on duty at night, how much food and water each family has brought, how long is enough to eat, whether you can bear it or not, we have to at least make an estimate, etc. At dawn tomorrow, I will count how many old people and children there are, how many people ride in cars, how many people walk, there are those who look weak and need to be taken care of, in case they get sick on the road...

oops! There are so many things to lead a team! "

Yan Yu had a headache.

Yan's second child also has a big head.

The last time the platform was opened and they connected their three friends, they discovered a most serious problem. After food and clothing were resolved, their biggest survival crisis was disease.

Especially in the environment where they live, there is a lack of medical care.

There is only one doctor, Cui Langzhong, an abandoned pharmacist.

All the medicines were pointed at him, as much as he took on the road.

About night blindness, this is true, there are many ancient people~

Zhai is night blindness among a small number of modern people. It is not serious and does not affect life. Do not drive at night and do not go out at night~

It’s just that it’s a strenuous journey to solve life’s major issues in the middle of the night, and you have to support the wall o(╥﹏╥)o

The second update was sent today. I clicked on the page and saw that the monthly ticket is full again?

Thank you, everyone, thank you~ I will continue to work hard, 10:30 o'clock~( # ^.^ # )
