That night, the Little Heavenly Master went to sleep alone early because he had consumed a lot of energy.
These days, many businesses in Fengshan have stopped due to the government's troubles. Bamboo weaving cannot be sold, and there is already a lot of inventory in the warehouse. Although the port continues to operate at this time, the future is not clear, so production is temporarily Shelved.
The sugarcane business has suffered the greatest damage, and now the government has completely banned sugarcane harvesting.
This means that the hard work of the sugarcane farmers this year will be in vain!
There are also those who grow sweet potatoes. Their losses are not big. The sweet potatoes are gradually reaching the harvest season. They are collected and made into sweet potato powder, or stored in the cellar. When around the Chinese New Year, there will be sweet potatoes to eat!
Because sweet potato powder is rarely produced, it is a delicacy that can only be eaten during the New Year and festivals. With a small knife of pork, it is the best memory. Children can eat it with their tongues in their stomachs!
In recent years, due to the promotion of sweet potatoes, the life of the mountain people has become more and more relaxed, and they have the energy to do more things. At least in Xinghua, there are very few news of people dying of hunger.
Liang Shiguang hunted a wild goat somewhere and came back. He cleaned the internal organs, sprinkled some chili powder on it, and put it on the fire rack to roast it deliciously!
In the past two years, traces of large wild animals have appeared in the mountains one after another. People's demand for the meat of mountain animals is not so strong, and wild animals have another chance to breathe.
As long as the mountains and forests are given time, they will soon recover their vitality, and their vitality is far more powerful than that of tiny humans.
The meat of wild goat is relatively sticky and requires a lot of skill to turn it into a delicacy. A few people didn't know how to add honey to the meat, so they drizzled it with honey and added chili powder, and the dry and tasteless wild goat meat immediately became sublime.
In the quiet night, accompanied only by the gusts of north wind, the entire Fengshan Mountain seemed particularly peaceful.
Even before, at night at home in Wangxiang, I would go to bed early, whispering under the quilt. The children went to bed early, and there were no other activities. Only sleep can relieve the fatigue of the day. If you are lucky, during social festivals and other festivals, a troupe will come to the countryside to sing opera, which will be the greatest entertainment for everyone!
If you can slice pig head meat, sift two ounces of wine, and drink it at night, this will be a life like a fairy!
Liang Chuan occasionally eats pig head meat, but he has more choices. His stomach has long been accustomed to fine wine and delicious food. Now when he eats the delicacies of the past, he no longer has the same sense of freshness and satisfaction as before.
He remembered very clearly that when he and Yi Niang had a meal of millet rice, it was so delicious. Now he can never find the same taste again.
Liang Chuan, the wild goat, cut the lamb's ribs, ate two bites of the rest, and then asked Sun and Wei to fight for wine. The mountain breeze at this time was very refreshing, although there was already a hint of coolness, and it was most comfortable when it blew on people.
Suddenly the mountain breeze carried the smell of burning fire!
'not good! Yuchi and others were by the fire, so naturally they couldn't smell the peculiar smell in the mountain breeze. Liang Chuan was upwind, so he immediately realized something was wrong!
on fire!
In the season when the north wind is strong, if there is a fire and the wind is strong, it will be fatal!
At this time, it was unclear whether it was a mountain fire or arson. Liang Chuan did not dare to be careless and immediately called Yelv Chongguang!
'What happened? Yelv Chongguang asked anxiously.
'Don't you smell anything? Liang Chuan responded.
'The smell of fire, the mutton smell!
Yelv Chongguang didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Roast lamb. Can you still eat mutton without lighting the fireworks?
'Don't you think there's anything wrong with where we stand? Liang Chuan said coldly.
Yelv Chongguang is most afraid of Liang Chuan playing riddles with him. His knowledge is pitiful, how can he keep up with Liang Chuan's pace?
Yelu Zhongguang stayed in place in a daze, the wind blew across his face, and when he looked at the fire on the ground again, he suddenly started up!
'on fire!
Without waiting for Liang Chuan to assign him a task, he stood up and
Run outside the house.
Not long after, Yelu Chongguang turned back.
'How about it? Others also noticed something was wrong, and now they all gathered around Liang Chuan.
Yelv Chongguang said with uneven air: "A group of people came to Fengshan to set fire, and the sugar cane field turned into a sea of fire!"
What!
Liang Chuan was firstly afraid of human manipulation, and secondly, he was afraid of wildfires. No matter which one it was, it would be very troublesome. There were no fire engines these days, so it was not easy to put out the fire!
Heaving a sigh of relief, it’s okay!
'How did the fire start?
Yelu Zhongguang said: "I don't know. There are many farmers in the field putting out the fire at this time, but the wind is helping the fire. It's the dry season, so it's not surprising that the fire started!"
Could it be such a coincidence? Liang Chuan couldn't believe it.
'Come on, second brother, you and Lao Liang will stay here while we go take a look!
Liang Chuan and several others rushed to the edge of the Nanxi River. Most of the north bank was covered in a sea of fire. The fire points were not connected together, but scattered in various places. It was particularly obvious in the night, and it was clear at a glance! If it was an accident, how could it be burned like this? Liang Chuan couldn't believe it!
When they arrived at the location of the fire, He Baozheng was already running ahead of them!
'Sanlang, why are you here too!
During the day today, He Baozheng came to report the news and left the Liang family first. Liang Chuan didn't want He Baozheng to get into trouble. With one less old man, he could fight with these yamen people at ease.
Unexpectedly, I saw him again in the evening.
'What's going on with the fire?
'I don't know either. The old woman was at home and saw a fire outside, so I came out!
Seeing that He Baozheng was unclear about the situation, Liang Chuan asked, "Whose land is this?"
He Baozheng looked around and said: "It seems that the land boundary of Qian Village is connected, but no one is farming this large piece of land now. It is all rented to tenants for farming. Now, it's that Fan Dianyuan. Those Guanzhong people come to rent it." Eighty percent of the land belongs to them!
Fan Dianyuan!
Haven't seen him for a long time!
'Are they putting out fires here?
He Baozheng stretched his neck and looked around, and saw figures moving in the sea of fire. He immediately said to Liang Chuan: "I guess there are people in the sugar cane field!"
The group of people looked around and saw several figures!
I saw several distressed tenant farmers rushing out of the sea of fire with tools in their hands and heading straight towards Liang Chuan and his party. Qin Jing and Sun Shubo moved quickly, drew out their weapons, and prepared to fight!
The visitor cursed: "You damn thief, you set fire to the sugar cane field, your conscience will be eaten by the dogs!"
Their movements are clumsy and they have not received professional training, but they have the determination of Qin soldiers, which is a natural murderous aura. No matter who they are, they will be frightened by their indomitable energy!
But in front of them were two killing gods. In the darkness, Sun Shubo pulled out the Japanese sword, glowing with cold light!
'Put the knife away! Liang Chuan ordered.
With a bang, Sun Shubo answered and sheathed it without questioning or hesitating.
Liang Chuan shouted at these people: "Old Fan and Lao Ma, is it you!"
When Fan Dianyuan heard this, he immediately stopped several fellow villagers and responded, "It's me, who are you!"
Liang Chuan's voice rolled away through the dark night and said: 'I am Liang Chuan!
These two words were like a spell, freezing the figures of Fan Dianyuan and others!
'The boss, it's Dong Liang's family, he's back!
Not long after Liang Chuan returned, nearby villagers came to congratulate him.
But most of the mountain people and those who lived far away, such as Fan Dianyuan and others who lived by the stream, did not know this good news.
Fan Dianyuan dragged a group of people to Liang Chuan, took Liang Chuan's hand and said, "Dong Liang's family, you are back!"
The fire in the sugar cane field blackened their faces, and they grinned, revealing their big, slightly yellowed teeth.
Liang Chuan said to the people around him: "Go and find out who set the fire nearby!" Find him for me!
Anger made Liang Chuan's face look a little ferocious, but he still put away his expression, looked at Fan Dianyuan and others and said: "If it burns, burn it. You go and cut out the unburned areas so that the fire will not spread." !
'good!
Someone commanded, and several tenant farmers from northern Shaanxi in Guanzhong immediately found the mastermind. Under Liang Chuan's command, they quickly pulled out their cane cutting knives and chopped out a fire barrier!
As long as there is no combustible material, the flame will not spread.
The tenants were extremely fast, and they quickly cut out a fire barrier with one strike of their swords!
The area of overheated sugarcane fields was more than a dozen acres, but the larger area was still hundreds of acres. Finally, a small part was abandoned and most of the sugarcane fields were saved!
Looking from a distance, the sugar cane fields in the distance were still burning. Many villagers also discovered that their sugar cane fields were on fire. They quickly found tools to put out the fire, but they only knew how to fight the fire and did not know how to cut down the fire zone. The principle is that the north wind is starting to get stronger, which will only make the fire bigger. How to put out the fire in the sugar cane field!
Several tenant farmers were cutting sugar cane from midnight to midnight. In order to save the sugar cane field, they sacrificed their lives to chop sugar cane. Although this job only requires one knife, such a large area of sugar cane field requires constant swinging of the knife. The gods also Can't afford this kind of loss! ..
By the time the firebreak was cut, several people were almost exhausted and fell to the ground!
The black smoke made their faces black, but the sweat washed down again, and there were streaks of sweat on their faces and necks.
Qin Jing, Yelu Zhongguang and others came back, but they didn't dare to raise their heads. Seeing this tragic scene, they had no shame to deal with Liang Chuan.
'Have you found any suspects?
Several people shook their heads in unison: "The fire has been burning for a long time in the middle of the night, and when we came, there was no one left."
'Find, find the person. Fan Dianyuan and others looked at Liang Chuan eagerly. These sugar canes were their livelihood, and everyone suffered huge losses this time!
Yelu Chongguang was a little confused and said: "How can we find this? There is no clue."
Liang Chuan said angrily: "How can there be no clues? He must not have set so many fires by himself. Go look for them in Xinghua. There must be some clues!"
Yelu Zhongguang had a direction, and his face immediately showed a fierce look.
It was a good night to be disturbed by these bastards. If he found him, he would have to kill them!
