MTL - The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family-Chapter 34 we are all night blind
Chapter 34 We are all night blind
Yan's second son finally knew why Lao Yan said that it was difficult to travel at night.
He just found out that he is night blind.
The whole family and even the whole village are.
It’s good to be at home, but now walking outside, everyone has become blind, and can only see the short road under their feet.
The surrounding area is 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.
One 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 and not get lost.
They had been walking for two hours, it was the direction his brother had set, not the usual way to the town.
At the beginning, they were all country roads, until just now, they embarked on a relatively flat dirt road.
That is, the official road connecting the various prefectures and counties.
Yan Huaiwen asked the team to stop. Everyone rested, fed the animals, and ate something. After a quarter of an hour, they went on the road.
It was only a quarter of an hour, and the whole team became flustered.
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, quickly put them on the car.
If you were not careful, the child in your hand ran away without a trace. The parents had to shout, and finally got it back. After slapping the **** twice, the child started crying.
The chicken was frightened and flapped its wings, and the donkey also added to the chaos, barking twice...
A good picture of the village people walking on the road at night.
"Our cow..." Yan Huaiwen felt more and more wrong as he walked. He had ridden in a horse-drawn cart, 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 family is a bit strong." Yan Huaiwen said.
Yan's second child: "What's the matter, people are also strong, and our family's three treasures may be the strong bull among the cows.
Yes, I have to feed it with grass 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 when they were given, and they would not make a fuss if they were not given.
Later, he didn’t pay attention to feeding too much. What do you think, the three treasures stopped eating!
Hey! Just say that our cow is smart or not.
The simulated cow birth 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 Er Er asked a silly question.
Yan Huaiwen looked at his ignorant younger brother, and sighed: "The post station only accepts officials, I can't wait, and 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 would be better for someone to investigate first. 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 seeing officials?" Yan's second son finally realized 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 follow the official path? Let's take the side road." Yan's second son's sense of crisis came up. Not only did he have difficulty in survival, but he also had problems with his identity.
"If you don't follow the official path, how can you find out the direction." Yan Huaiwen's face turned dark.
Yan's second child was dumbfounded and didn't dare to ask again.
Yan Yu waited for his uncle and elder brother to go for convenience, and 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 have to avoid the post station and turn the path. It takes a long time to walk. Look at the back. Those who walk on their legs are all exhausted." Yan's second is those who can't bear to walk behind.
"Hey, if you can get the 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.
Father, we must unremittingly develop the functions of the Three Treasures, it is the biggest help for our family at present. "Yan Yu whispered.
Yan Er Er looked 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 understood immediately that what her daughter was talking about was the platform that opened at midnight.
"Yes, I can't let him and his father idle, and I'm just tired."
"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 don't think the uncle speaks in a down-to-earth manner. 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 Lao Er kept nodding, "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 go, how long we stop, and we don’t have to explain it. The people in our village are also real, just follow along without asking anything. "
"There are a lot of problems, how far to 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, and whether it can be tolerated, we have to at least estimate the same, 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 has a headache.
Yan's second child also has a big head.
The last time the platform was opened and they connected with three friends, they discovered a most serious problem. After food and clothing were solved, 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, do not go out at night~
It’s a strenuous journey to solve life’s major events in the middle of the night, and you have to support the wall o(╥﹏╥)o
The second update was delivered today. I clicked on the page and saw that the monthly pass is full again?
Thank you, everyone, thank you~ I will continue to work hard, 10:30 o'clock~(#^.^#)
(end of this chapter)
