Rebirth in another world is good for farming

Although summer is busy, there is also a very important festival, July [-]th.For the children of Xiaba Village, this day is another annual day for free play.The old people are convinced that on this day the fairy will descend to the mortal world and play in the deep mountain stream.With its benefits, all the running water in the world has magical effects on this day. If you can take the outside water home and store it before seeing the sun, it can cure many discomforts on people.

Because the water is so magical on this day, children are also allowed to play in the river.As long as he has taken a bath by the river that day, the child will not suffer from prickly heat, and will rarely suffer from colds and stomachaches.Adult men often wet their hair and ends in the river when they return home, which can be regarded as being stained with fairy water.

At this time, the seedlings in the field are already one tussah high. As long as there is enough rain, the seedlings can be planted in the field at any time.It's just that this year I don't know what happened. The seedlings in many people's fields are well taken care of, and suddenly many white leaves appear.There are dots of white dead leaves among the emerald green seedlings. They are worried that more and more dead leaves will die in the seedling field, and they are also worried that they will not survive if they are transplanted, which makes many people hesitate to worry.

Zhang Xiaoliu was naturally also worried about her own seedlings.Although it is said that Dashun was entrusted to help raise the seedlings, but this situation is a loss for everyone. There is no reason why other people's fields do not have enough seedlings, so let you take care of them first.After all, he wasn't in the mind of a ten-year-old child. In addition to the hot weather, the three people sleeping on the bed were clinging to each other, like pancakes being baked on the stove, tossing and turning.

In the early hours of the morning, when I finally fell asleep in a daze, I heard the sound of wheat getting up.Mai Mai probably knew that he was depressed, so he just called Xiao Song up.But when he opened his eyes, it was still half dark outside, how could Zhang Xiaoliu let them go out alone?He had no choice but to grit his teeth and get out of bed, waited for Maimai to pick out two buckets, bring a towel, and let Maimai hold the washbasin before setting off with them.

Fortunately, because the water in the well comes from underground springs, it can be regarded as running water, and there is no need to go to the mountain stream to pick it up.Zhang Xiaoliu thought it was still early at this time, and he only thought that wheat was really a child's heart, but he didn't expect that there were already many people along the way, and the water spilled on the ground had already soaked the road surface.

The old well they used was very well drilled. It is said that when there was a severe drought in previous years and the wells in other places did not produce water, the water here was still full.Therefore, at this time of year, many people from a little further away will come here to carry water, and it seems not surprising that such a grand event occurs.

"Brother Liu, why are you here so late? The water in the well is half down, hurry up!" Zhang Xiaoliu just walked with half-closed eyes, when suddenly a familiar voice stopped him, and he woke up completely.He looked up, and saw that Fulai was walking home with two wooden barrels filled to seventy-eight percent full.Judging by his appearance, it is obvious that he has already picked one.

"There's no rush, it's enough for us to pick one time. You can walk slowly, you can rest for a while before you go!" Fulai panted, obviously the burden of picking was not easy.Zhang Xiaoliu felt exhausted for him even after seeing it, and tried to persuade him.

Fulai waved his hand, signaling him to fetch water quickly, and walked away shaking the two buckets.

When the three of them arrived, the round well built with white stone slabs was indeed full of people.The wells here don’t even have carts to fetch water. They only tie a rope the size of a baby’s arm around the well. When fetching water, tie the rope firmly to the handle of the wooden bucket. There was a "bang", and the barrel was not full of water when it sank. At this time, when it was lifted up vigorously, it must be full.

The people who filled the water gradually left, and Zhang Xiaoliu finally came to the front of the well.Looking carefully, the well used to be so full of water that it overflowed, but now I can only see the depth of the water by looking down at the waves.

Nine out of ten people who carry water here are brothers, and everyone does not shy away from it. After fetching water, they go to the side to wipe their hands and wash their faces. intention.

They were not strong enough, and in the end the bucket was only half full.Mai Mai was a little unhappy, but Zhang Xiaoliu didn't care.If it is said that there is any water so miraculous that it can cure diseases, he firmly does not believe it.He just let Xiaomai clean up the two unused urns in the house, poured the picked water into it, and went out with the bucket again.

After waking up like this, even though it is still early and the head has not yet woken up, it is absolutely impossible to go back to sleep.At this time, it was getting brighter again, so Zhang Xiaoliu planned to go to the kitchen to cook some chicken food.Since cutting back the sweet potato vines, he never wanted to let the chickens go hungry.If fed well, chickens more than four months old can be slaughtered and eaten, but the chickens raised at home are obviously too thin.

In order to make it easier for them to get up and cook in the morning, Zhao Zhengze's room was never closed inside, although he usually got up earlier.Having done a lot of tiring work in the past few days, Zhang Xiaoliu thought that he would snooze a little more when he was free these few days, but he didn't expect to sneak in and found him up.

"So early?" Zhang Xiaoliu asked since he would not disturb him.

Zhao Zhengze seemed to realize that he had come in at this time, hurriedly put down the things in his hands, and said, "It's getting late, I heard you went to fetch water. Let me make today's chicken food, and you and Mai Mai and the others go play. "

Zhang Xiaoliu shook his head, just thinking that so many people went to the river, what fun could there be?If you just want to play in the water, you can go any day.Before he could say a word, he saw the thing in his hand sharply, and asked in surprise, "Did you really carve that piece of peach wood?" He could vaguely see that the piece of peach wood was no longer as thick as before. appearance, but a human form appeared.

"Well, I haven't done much work these two days, I just want to do it." Zhao Zhengze clenched the things in his hands and handed them out nervously.

Zhang Xiaoliu took it over and took a look. It was not accurate to say that it was a human figure, but it should be a Buddha statue on closer inspection.

"What did you carve?" He had never seen such a Buddha statue. Although the size of the mahogany wood was not large, it should be at least a burly image with a height of nine feet in proportion.He has a rough appearance, his eyes are wide open, the Buddhist beads in his hands are almost mopping the floor, and he is half covered in cassock. If it weren't for this attire, he really wouldn't be able to see half of the Buddha nature from his expression.

"This is the Demon Conquering Buddha. Haven't you heard his story?" Zhao Zhengze was very surprised. He used to think that Zhang Xiaoliu was very powerful. slow.These few chats made him realize that the other party was just a child, and he didn't know many things.

"Conquering Demon Buddha?" Zhao Zhengze shook his head blankly, trying to search in his mind for a long time, but he had never heard of such a weird Buddha.

"I've heard it said that all the towns and cities have to put the Subduing Demon Buddha. He is the best at catching ghosts. No matter how powerful the demons and ghosts are, they can't escape his palm, and he can swallow one in one bite."

Zhang Xiaoliu thought to himself, this is a bit like the story of Zhong Kui catching ghosts, but unfortunately Zhong Kui is not a monk either.But this kind of story is inevitable wherever you go, either Taoist monks and the like make up some ghosts to scare people, or they are just to scare children.

"So that's the case. I've never heard of such a powerful Conquering Demon Buddha. If you carve it, maybe I can see what he looks like."

"Why don't you take me to the big temple in the town to see it once. When the land is planted, I will take you to see it too." Zhao Zhengze suddenly remembered that Xiaoliu's family was poor, and it was even poorer than his own. Why, no wonder he had never heard of these things, and suddenly felt bored.He made up his mind to think about the appearance of Jiangmo Buddha again, and he must carve it exactly like the one in the temple, so Xiaoliu can recognize it at a glance later.

"Okay, maybe we can go to the city to see." Zhang Xiaoliu returned the mahogany to him and said with a smile.Unlike other people, he has a sense of fear about entering the city, but he suffers from the lack of money in his hands.But he didn't know, because of his words, Zhao Zhengze silently set a goal for himself.

It's not difficult to cook chicken food. I took the dried sweet potato vines and soaked them in water to cook them, then mixed with some chaff from the rice milling, and put a few sweet potatoes for breakfast on top.When the sweet potatoes are cooked, the sweet potato vines and bran underneath have been boiled into a paste. Put them in a chicken feeding bowl, stir them, and put them in front of the house. A large group of chickens will rush to them, and they will eat them up in a short time. net.

Normally, Mai Mai would take the initiative to feed the chickens, but now he was busy carrying water, and Zhang Xiaoliu also moved ahead of time to cook the chicken food, so he went to release the chickens from the cage by himself.There are nearly thirty chickens, and they are also a magnificent group in front of the house.After all the chickens come out with flapping wings, it is necessary to clean up the chicken droppings under the chicken cages.

But today is destined to be a day of surprises. As soon as Zhang Xiaoliu approached, he saw a white oval object lying quietly in one of the chicken coops.This flock of chickens had never laid eggs before, and he was ecstatic in his heart. When he looked closely, it was indeed eggs, and then he shouted loudly: "Xiaosong, Ah Zheng, our chickens are laying eggs!"

Xiao Song was playing on the ground in the house, and ran out first on short legs when he heard his words: "Brother, brother, where are the eggs?" These days he was actually feeding the chickens with wheat, and at first he was looking forward to the chickens every day. When to lay eggs, I am more disappointed and stop looking at it every day.Unexpectedly, when I heard it suddenly, there were pots of steamed eggs and golden fried eggs in front of my eyes.

"Hey, isn't it in the chicken coop? You go and pick it up." Zhang Xiaoliu knew that he was more interested in eggs than himself, so he waited for him to get them out.

Sure enough, Xiao Song ran over in a hurry, and after seeing it, he stretched out his hand to dig into the chicken coop a few times, and the still warm egg reached his palm.

"Brother, it's still hot!" He ran to Zhang Xiaoliu again and said excitedly.Compared with the usual ones, this egg looks very small.Even so, he held it carefully, laughing so hard that he almost lost his eyes.

At this time Zhao Zhengze also came out, seeing that Xiaosong really had an egg in his hand, although he was not as excited as Xiaosong, he was obviously very happy.

"Although there is only one egg today, the other hens raised together must be laying eggs soon. Let's feed them more often, and the eggs will be bigger!"

Zhang Xiaoliu smiled and said nothing, if he feeds more every day, the sweet potato vines will be used up in a short time, it seems that he still has to control the amount by himself.And this is the first time the hen has laid eggs, so it is normal for the hen to be smaller.

When Maimai came back, Xiaosong had already hidden the eggs by his bedside.Unexpectedly, the chicken he had been feeding for several months was not the first person to see the eggs, so Xiaomai felt that it was a big loss for him to go out to fetch water this time.
