Carrying a Hoe to Cultivate

The next day, Xia also started planting.

He divided the land into two sides, planting fennel on one side and onions on the other, and within half an hour, he planted his own part of the land.Clapping the soil on his hands, he was going home to make lunch, and when it was ready, he sent it to the field for Gu Wenzhu.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Uncle Wang from the village running towards him from a distance, followed by a group of children.Uncle Wang stopped nearby, panting and said to Xia Yi: "Your family Gu... Gu Wenzhu was...taken away by the government."

Xia Yi only felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet, and couldn't help asking loudly: "Gu Wenzhu was taken away by the government? Why? Uncle Wang, are you sure it's Gu Wenzhu?"

Uncle Wang was still panting, and a group of children around him replied in a hurry: "Yes, it is brother Zhu, who was chained and dragged away by the government." They also pretended to be handcuffed with their hands together. .

"Where did you go?" Xia Yi was so anxious that his voice changed.

"Official sent to the county government."

"Do you know what happened?"

"I don't know, but the official said that he picked a quarrel and beat someone."

Fortunately, it wasn't a big case of murder and robbery. Xia Yi collected his mind and strode home.

As soon as he entered the house, Qilin surrounded him affectionately. Xia Yi didn't know what to do, and rushed directly to the back room, took out a fur skin, and began to put things in it.

"I need to pack the money bag. I'm afraid I don't have enough money. Brother Zhu has money in that box. Take all of it, and use it in case you manage someone." Xia Yi murmured while reminding himself not to panic.

The small box and key that Gu Wenzhu put money in never avoided Xia Yi, so Xia Yi knew where to get the money.There were some broken silver copper plates and a few whole silver ingots in the box, and Xia Yi threw them all into the bag.Putting on another set of clothes, and entrusting the unicorn to Uncle Wang who followed, Xia Yi put on his pack and was about to go out.

"Bring some food and water." The system reminded.

Xia Yi brought a few more steamed buns and water, took the wooden stick that he had brought with him when fleeing famine, closed the gate of the courtyard and walked towards the county seat.

"Gu Wenzhu robbed a few big girls and hid them in the cellar, he also robbed a few boxes of gold from a big family, and killed two servants. He is wanted by the government!" As soon as he left the village, 179's high-pitched voice sounded, There is a hint of excitement.

Xia Yi was taken aback when he heard the words: "Who did you hear that from?"

"The girls doing laundry." 179 replied.

Xia Yi was angry from the bottom of her heart: ...Could you stop making trouble at this time.

After rushing for a while in a hurry, Xia Yi looked ahead and began to ponder in his heart: It is more than ten miles to the county town, without any means of transportation, just relying on two legs, I don't know how long it will take.It's too late to take care of it, what should we do if Gu Wenzhu is arrested and beaten up first.

Xia Yi looked around, remembering the mountain that Gu Wenzhu had climbed when he caught a fish last time, so he decided to take a shortcut.

When we got up the mountain, the forest was quiet, only the chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves in the wind.Xia Yi leaned on a wooden stick and carried a bundle, sweating profusely on the mountain road.

It is said to be a mountain road, but it is actually a small path walked by woodcutters. It is narrow and steep, and it is very difficult to walk.Xia Yi had never walked this kind of road before, and after a while, he couldn't climb anymore, leaning against a big tree, panting.

"179, this body is really bad. I can't do it this way. I used to run 800 meters, and I didn't feel out of breath after a few laps."

After resting for a while, after recovering some strength, Xia Yi took a long breath as he looked at the winding path to the top of the mountain, ready to climb to the top of the mountain in one go.

Just as he grasped the wooden staff and straightened up, trying to get away from the big tree against which he was leaning, the stone under his feet loosened and suddenly slid down.Xia Yi staggered, couldn't stand firmly and fell on the hillside, and the wooden stick fell out.In a panic, I reached out to fish for it, but found nothing, and slid down the hillside and rocks.

"Ahhhhhhhh...179..."

"Ahhhhhhh...Host..."

Xia Yi screamed, and after sliding down for about ten meters with several rocks, he finally slowed down and stopped, his feet landed on the ground, and he quickly stood up and looked around in shock.

This is a deep ditch with mountain walls on three sides, which is more than ten feet high.The front end of the ditch is a cliff. Although the mountain wall is sloped, it is very smooth, and it is covered with wet moss, and there are no other attachments that can be scratched.

Xia Yi tried to climb a few times, but gave up. The bare wall couldn't be grasped at all, and he couldn't even take a step up.

He started calling for help, "Is anyone there? Help..." The only echo in the empty valley was his own.

Xia Yi yelled for a while, his voice became smaller and smaller, and finally sat down in frustration, "179, what should I do? I can't get out, I'm stuck here, what should Brother Zhu do? Will he be beaten?"

"179, do you have any way to get me out, I can do some extra tasks in return."

"Host, I have no way to get you out." 179's voice was also very disappointed.

Xia Yi folded his hands on his knees and stared blankly at the sky, what should we do?

. . . . . .

Unknowingly, the sky darkened, and the crows returning to their nests croaked.Xia Yi buried his head in his lap and remained motionless. He had maintained this position for a long time.

"Host, eat something." 179 reminded.

Xia Yi slowly shook his head, "I don't want to eat." He has tried many times, and his hands and body are covered with moss. If no one comes down to save him, he will only be trapped here .

In this damn farming world, you can't even call 110 with a mobile phone.

. . . . . .

Xia Yi was awakened by a burst of lightning and thunder.He just fell asleep unknowingly, and he didn't know how long he had been asleep. When he opened his eyes, the mountain was already pitch black.

Immediately afterwards, the raindrops drifted down, and when they fell on the leaves and grass, they made a soft rustle at first, and then as the rain intensified, the entire valley was filled with the deafening sound of rain.The temperature in the mountains dropped suddenly, Xia Yi was drenched all over, clinging to his body tightly, a gust of wind blew past, and his teeth rattled.

He had already had breakfast today, and now his stomach was already rumbling with hunger, his chest stuck to his back.Xia Yi shivered and opened the bag, and took out the steamed buns. The steamed buns had been soaked in water and turned into a paste. He picked up the steamed buns with his fingers and ate them with the rain.

"179, if no one comes, will I be stuck here until I starve to death?" Xia Yi leaned against the mountain wall and murmured.

"Host, you have to hold on, someone will come to rescue us tomorrow." 179's mechanical voice was a little anxious.

"Really? No one knows that I fell here, they all thought that I went to the city to find Brother Zhu." Xia Yi closed his eyes and leaned his head on the mountain wall, "I don't know what happened to Brother Zhu? In the future, when he comes out and finds that I'm missing and the money is gone, I don't know what he will think of me."

"Maybe you might think that seeing him being arrested, I'll take the money and run away." He slid along the mountain wall and sat on the ground, holding his knees tightly.

"179, if I die, will I return to the original world?"

Xia Yi stared blankly at the dark distance, "If I die, I hope Brother Zhu finds me sooner, so he knows I'm not gone." Then he shook his head slowly, "Forget it, he will be sad when he finds out that I'm dead, Just let him think I'm gone."

"Host, there will be woodcutters and hunters passing by tomorrow, don't be discouraged." 179 comforted Xia Yi.

"But until tomorrow, brother Zhu will be punished... I don't know how he will be beaten." Xia Yi closed his eyes in the rain.

. . . . . .

"Host! Host! Someone is coming!" 179 suddenly shouted, "Hurry up, hurry up, someone is nearby."

Immediately afterwards, I heard several calls from the top of my head: "Xiao Yi...Xia Yi..."

Xia Yi raised his head suddenly, it was Brother Zhu!It's Zhuge's voice!Brother Zhu was not captured and came to look for him.

"I'm here...Brother Zhu, I'm here..." Xia Yi's voice was hoarse and dry, as dry as a handful of sand.He coughed a few times, then responded loudly.

After a while, a rope hung down from the mountain wall beside him, and Gu Wenzhu slowly slid down the rope with a lantern hanging on his back.

Going down to the bottom of the ditch, Gu Wenzhu wiped the rainwater off his face, and fixedly looked at the embarrassed Xia Yi.His chest heaved up and down, and he took two steps forward to hug him tightly in his arms.

Xia Yi also put his arms around Gu Wenzhu's back, choked up and said, "I heard that you were taken away...I'll go find you..."

"I know, I know, Uncle Wang said you came to find me." Gu Wenzhu hugged Xia Yi tightly, and murmured with some fear, "I'm fine."

Xia Yi and Gu Wenzhu hugged him in his arms, feeling his warm body temperature and firm arms, and suddenly felt extremely safe in his heart. I was hungry and worried about you, and I didn't know when people would pass by, I thought I was going to die here."

"You won't die, I will definitely come to you." Gu Wenzhu whispered.

He didn't tell Xia Yi, how anxious he was when he knew that Xia Yi was looking for him, but the people returning to the village from the county said that they didn't meet Xia Yi on the way.When I saw Xia Yi's lost wooden stick on the trail, my heart fell to the bottom of the valley in an instant, and the emptiness was cold until I heard Xia Yi's echo in the deep ditch.

I don't know when the rain stopped, and the two climbed out of the deep ditch along the rope and walked home. Seeing Xia Yi's legs shaking, Gu Wenzhu picked him up.

"I'm starving to death." Sticking against Gu Wenzhu's warm and firm back, Xia Yi couldn't help but began to complain.

"Soon, I'll get you something to eat when I get home." Gu Wen comforted him with a warm voice.

"My knee is still rubbing against the mountain wall, it hurts so much." It feels so good to be cared for.

"I'll see if the skin is broken later, and I'll take some medicine for the broken skin." Gu Wenzhu accelerated his pace of going home.

"My legs are still tired." Xia Zhu drawled his nose, with a little coquettishness.

"I'll rub it when I go back."
