Chapter 394 The Fields
Time has entered May, and the cultivation of Yuanyang Mansion has been completed.

It can be said that as long as it is suitable for large-scale cultivation, seeds have been sown.

These sown lands accounted for two-thirds of the arable land in Yuanyang Mansion, which was already the limit of Wang Mansion's sowing.

The original cultivated land in Yuanyang Mansion supported nearly 80 people in the whole mansion.

In other words, this two-thirds of the land is enough to feed more than 50 people, but the total number of soldiers and civilians in Yuanyang Prefecture is less than 8.

It can be said that after the bumper harvest this autumn, the food problem will no longer be a problem.

Of course, no matter whether it is spring plowing or autumn harvesting, it is a torment for the people who go out to work in the city, and it is a test of life and death.

Fortunately, everyone in Chungeng has carried it through, and the next task will be much easier.

Except for some young and strong people who continued to stay and serve the crops, most of them returned to the city.

But their return to the city is not for a rest, there is no food supply for the rest, after all there are still many production tasks

Making ordnance, farm tools, digging ditches, repairing fortifications... all of these require a lot of manpower.

But things are not absolute. For example, Jingdong County is still in the process of large-scale cultivation.

It is only because Jingdong County has too much arable land and it is too far away from Yuanyang, so the construction period was delayed a bit.

Of course, although Jingdong's construction period is longer, it has also entered the final stage.

"Master Zhu, this is the last piece of land, at most three to five days... it will be over!"

Looking at the people farming in the distance, Tan Lu, the deputy of the garrison Qianhu, sighed: "I don't know how I got here in the past two months!"

As a garrison of thousands of households, Tan Lu is responsible for the safety of all the people who leave the city to farm.

He had only about [-] men under his command, and some of them had to be left to defend the county, so the number of troops he could send was very small.

But fortunately, after the whole spring plowing exam, Jingdong County handed in a qualified answer sheet.

"I haven't had a good night's sleep for dozens of days!" Zhu Ancai, the county magistrate, picked up the water bottle and said.

After drinking water to quench his thirst, Zhu An said with a smile: "After the last few days, you can have a peaceful life!"

"Master Zhu has a peaceful life, which is really enviable!"

"How do you say that? Don't you think the same?" Zhu An asked back.

"It's really different. In the next few months, the palace must use troops again!"

Hearing this, Zhu An suddenly understood, and he also noticed the wind.

In fact, the reason is very simple, how can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch, at least the rebels in the north must be dealt with.

Only Zhu An said: "You are stationed in Jingdong, even if you want to mobilize troops...I'm afraid you won't be needed!"

"It's hard to say..." Tan Lu frowned.

He wasn't afraid of fighting, but simply felt tired and wanted to rest.

Not everyone is always enthusiastic about errands like Cui Xingan.

The two civil and military officials have their own thoughts, but the people who are working are all smiling.

They will be able to go home in a few days and reunite with their wives and children, how could they be unhappy.

"Have you heard... Yuanyang, there are people who are about to lose their heads, and it is said that they are all soldiers!"

Someone raised his head, and immediately a curious person asked, "Soldiers? How could these people be beheaded?"

"It is said that the food was lost during the transportation. These people kept it secret and almost killed hundreds of people!"

Immediately someone scolded: "Damn it!"

These young and strong people who work outside the city work hard every day and are separated from their families for a long time. If they can't even eat well, they will definitely be scolded.

People like Wang Baokun lost their food and made the people of the Jiayou team hungry, which naturally aroused "popular indignation" among the people in Jingdong.

"My lord Mingjian, kill this person... Your lord still misses us!"

"That's for sure. The prince was chosen by God to save the world. He will definitely not watch us being bullied!"

While everyone was chatting, someone suddenly exclaimed: "Old He, Old He... What's wrong with you?"

Everyone turned their heads and looked over, only to see that one person had fallen to the ground, surrounded by several people.

Could it be heat stroke?Everyone thought this way, so they didn't take it to heart.

After all, there are always people who get caught in this kind of thing from time to time, and it will be fine to rest for a while.

"What's going on?" The officer in charge rushed over.

There are almost 200 people in the team he manages, and any disturbance will make him nervous, after all, he is the first responsible person.

"My lord, it seems...it's not heatstroke!"

Juan walked forward quickly. Although he didn't work, he could still see beads of sweat on his forehead.

When he got closer, Juan saw that the man lying on the ground was struggling constantly, foaming at the mouth but unable to speak.

"Everyone...get out of the way...be careful that he has been poisoned by the corpse!" Juan shouted.

Hearing that it might be corpse poison, since the one approaching was like a spring, he immediately ran away.

The people who are farming around are also gathering around at this moment, and they have no intention of working anymore.

The man on the ground was covering his stomach, and kept thumping left and right, but the foam in his mouth did not continue to increase.

Everyone is holding the guy, ready to fight at any time, as long as it is mutated, they will kill it immediately.

The movement here easily alarmed the patrolling soldiers. At this moment, a small flag officer led the team over.

Away from the crowd of onlookers, the little flag officer walked into the circle.

Commanding the young and strong to retreat, Juan warned the little flag officer who stepped forward: "Sun Xiaoqi, it may be poisoned by the corpse, you have to be careful!"

"Fart corpse poison, don't fucking talk nonsense!" Sun Youcheng said angrily.

Sun Youcheng had killed a lot of zombies, and he also knew the situation when the zombies mutated, so he recognized at a glance that they were not mutating.

Going forward, Sun Youcheng squatted down to check, then thought for a while and said, "It's not heatstroke either!"

But at this moment, the struggling man on the ground had passed out, and black shoes were dripping from the corner of his mouth.

Sun Youcheng patted the face of the man on the ground. After the latter had no response, he reached out to sniff the man.

"died!"

When Sun Youcheng gave this result, everyone present was stunned, and the good-looking people died?

"Sun Xiaoqi, did you really get poisoned by the corpse?"

At this moment, Sun Youcheng was not sure, so he stood up and said to his subordinates: "Get ready, if you really turn into a monster, just cut it off!"

"Yes!"

Next, the working people around were all separated by a long distance, fearing that it would cause chaos all at once.

The people below were not working, and the two civil and military officials who stopped to watch on the hillside couldn't help but come over to check the situation.

Seeing Tan and Lu coming, Sun Youcheng hurried forward to salute.

"what happened?"

"Returning to my lord, someone fell to the ground and died for some unknown reason... The humble officer thought that he might have been poisoned by the corpse, so he isolated this place!"

"Zhuzhi County, do you want to go and have a look together?"

"go!"

Although Zhu Ancai is a scholar, he has also cultivated a body of courage during the half a year he has been in power in Jingdong.

"Walk……"

After the two people checked carefully, Tan Lu said: "It should not be corpse poison!"

Zhu Ancai also nodded.

After repeated experiments and observations by the imperial physician of the Good Medical Institute, the characteristics of the person who was poisoned by the corpse have been clearly expressed.

Since it's not corpse poison, and it doesn't look like poisoning, then what's going on?

Just as everyone was thinking, someone next to him shouted: "My lord... fell... two more!"
