The next day, Xia Yi began to sow.
He divided the land into two sides, planted fennel on one side and onion on the other, and planted his own portion of the land within half an hour. He clapped the soil on his hands, prepared to go home to make lunch, and sent it to the ground for Gu Wenzhu.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Uncle Wang from the village running towards him from a distance, with a group of children following behind him. Uncle Wang stopped near and panted to Xia Yi: "Your family Gu... Gu Wenzhu was taken away by the government... by the government."
Xia Yi only felt a cold air rise from the soles of his feet, and couldn't help but ask 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 beside him replied in a loud voice: "Yes, it's Brother Zhu, who was pulled away by the officials with chains." They also made the appearance of being handcuffed .
"Where did it go?" Xia Yi was so anxious that his voice changed.
"The official sent to the county office."
"Do you know what happened?"
"I don't know, but the official said he was provoking and beating people or something."
Fortunately, it wasn't a big case of killing people and stealing goods, Xia Yi calmed down and ran home.
As soon as he entered the house, the unicorns surrounded him affectionately. Xia Yi didn't have any sympathy, so he rushed to the back room, took out a furoshiki, and began to put things in it.
"The money bag needs to be loaded. I'm afraid that my own money is not enough. If there is money in Zhuge's box, take it all. It will be used in case someone needs to be dispatched." Xia Yi murmured while reminding himself not to panic.
Gu Wenzhu never avoided Xia Yi in the small box and key where the money was placed, 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. He put on another set of clothes, and entrusted the unicorn to Uncle Wang who followed, and Xia Yi was about to go out with a bag on his back.
"Bring some food and water." The system reminded.
Xia Yi brought a few more steamed buns and water, picked up the wooden stick that he had brought when he escaped from the famine, and closed the courtyard door and walked towards the county seat.
"Gu Wenzhu robbed a few big girls and hid them in the cellar, robbed a few boxes of gold from a big family, and killed two servants. He is a wanted criminal by the government!" As soon as he left the village, a high-pitched voice of 179 sounded, Implied excitement.
Xia Yi was stunned when he heard the words: "Who did you listen to?"
"The girls who wash clothes." 179 replied.
Xia Yi's anger started from his heart: ... Can you stop making trouble at this time
After rushing for a while in a hurry, Xia Yi looked ahead and began to ponder: There is more than ten miles to the county town, and there is no means of transportation. Just relying on two legs, I don't know when I will get there. When it was too late to fight, Gu Wenzhu was arrested and had a good fight. What should I do
Xia Yi looked around, remembering the last time he caught a fish, Gu Wenzhu backed the mountain he climbed, and decided to take a shortcut.
When we went up the mountain, the forest was quiet, except for the chirping of birds and the sound of leaves rustling in the wind. Xia Yi leaned on a wooden stick and carried a bag, and was sweating on the mountain road.
It is said to be a mountain road, but it is actually a trail that the woodcutter walked out. Xia Yi had never walked this kind of road before, and after a while, he could no longer climb, leaning against a big tree and panting for breath.
"179, this body is really bad. It's not enough for me to walk like this. I used to run 800 meters, and I didn't catch my breath after a few laps."
After resting for a while, after regaining some strength, Xia Yi took a long breath and prepared to climb to the top of the mountain in one breath.
Just as he grabbed the wooden staff and stood up straight, and wanted to leave the big tree against which he was leaning, the stone under his feet loosened and suddenly fell. Xia Yi stumbled, fell unsteadily on the hillside, and fell out of the wooden stick. In panic, he reached out to fish, but nothing was caught, and he slid down the hillside and rocks.
"Ahhh... 179..."
"Ah ah ah... host..."
Xia Yi screamed in agony, and after sliding down ten meters with a few 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, more than ten feet high. The front end of the ditch is a cliff. Although the mountain wall is inclined, it is very smooth. It is still 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 walls couldn't catch him at all, and he couldn't even take a step.
He began to cry out for help, "Anyone? Help..." There was only his own echo in the empty valley.
Xia Yi shouted for a while, his voice getting smaller and smaller, and finally sat down in frustration, "179, what should I do? I can't get out, I'm trapped here, what should I do with Brother Zhu? Will he be beaten?"
"179, is there any way you can get me out? I can do some additional tasks in return."
"Host, I can't get you out." 179's voice was also very disappointed.
Xia Yi crossed her knees with her hands and stared blankly at the sky, what should I do
. . . . . .
Before I knew it, the sky darkened, and the crows that were homing made a cry. Xia Yi buried his head on his lap, motionless, he had been in this position for a long time.
"Host, eat something." 179 reminded.
Xia Yi slowly shook his head, "I don't want to eat it." He has tried so many times, his hands and body are covered with moss, if no one comes down to save him, he can only be trapped here .
In this damn farming world, you can't even call 110 on a mobile phone.
. . . . . .
Xia Yi was awakened by a burst of lightning and thunder. He fell asleep unconsciously just now, and he didn't know how long he had slept. When he opened his eyes, it was pitch black in the mountains.
Immediately afterwards, the raindrops fell, falling on the leaves and grass with a rustling sound at first, and then as the rain increased, the entire valley was deafening. The temperature in the mountains dropped suddenly, and Xia Yi was soaked wet, tightly clinging to his body, a gust of wind blew, and his teeth rattled.
He had eaten breakfast today, and now he was so hungry that his chest pressed against his back. Xia Yi shivered as he opened the bundle and took out the steamed buns. The steamed buns had been soaked in water and became mushy, so he squeezed the steamed buns with his fingers and ate them with the rain.
"179, if no one comes, am I stuck here until I starve to death?" Xia Yi whispered while leaning against the mountain wall.
"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 I went into the city to find Brother Zhu." Xia Yi closed his eyes and leaned his head against the mountain wall, "I don't know what happened to Brother Zhu? When he comes out in the future, he finds that I am missing and the money is gone, so I don't know what to think of me."
"You might think I'll take the money and run away after seeing him arrested." He slid down the mountain wall and sat on the ground, clasping his knees.
"179, if I die, will I return to the original world?"
Xia Yi stared blankly into the dark distance, "If I die, I hope Brother Zhu finds me sooner, so I know I'm not gone." Then he slowly shook his head, "Forget it, he will definitely be sad when he finds out that I am dead, Just let him think I'm gone."
"Host, someone who chops firewood and hunts will pass by tomorrow, don't be discouraged," 179 comforted Xia Yi.
"But until tomorrow, Brother Zhu will be punished... I don't know what it will be like." Xia Yi closed his eyes in the rain.
. . . . . .
"Host! Host! Someone is coming!" 179 suddenly shouted, "Quick, quick, get up, someone is nearby."
Immediately afterwards, I heard a few calls from the top of my head: "Xiaoyi... Xia Yi..."
Xia Yi suddenly raised his head, it was Brother Zhu! It's the voice of Zhuge! Brother Zhu was not arrested, and he came to look for him.
"I'm here... Zhuge, I'm here..." Xia Yi's voice was hoarse and dry, like a handful of sand. He coughed a few times and responded loudly.
After a while, a rope hung down from the mountain wall beside him, and Gu Wenzhu hung a lantern on his back, slowly sliding down the rope.
Going down to the bottom of the ditch, Gu Wenzhu wiped the rain on his face and looked at Xia Yi, who was in a state of embarrassment. 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 and choked, "I heard that you were taken away... I'll go find you..."
"I know I know, Uncle Wang said you came to see me." Gu Wenzhu hugged Xia Yi tightly, and muttered with a bit of fear, "I'm fine."
Xia Yi and Gu Wenzhu embraced in his arms, feeling his warm body temperature and firm arms, he felt extremely safe inside, and at the same time, a deep sense of grievance rose, and his voice brought a cry, "I'm cold again. I'm hungry and worried about you, and I don't know when people will 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 who returned to the village from the county town said that they didn't meet Xia Yi on the road. When I saw the wooden stick that Xia Yi lost on the trail, my heart fell to the bottom of the valley instantly, and the air was cold until I heard the echo of Xia Yi in the deep ditch.
I don't know when the rain has stopped, and the two climbed out of the deep ditch along the rope and walked home. Seeing Xia Yi fighting with his legs, Gu Wenzhu carried him on his back.
"I'm starving to death." Sticking to Gu Wenzhu's warm and solid back, Xia Yi couldn't help but start complaining.
"I'll get you something to eat right now when I get home." Gu Wenzhu warmly reassured.
"My knee is still rubbing against the mountain wall. It hurts." It feels so good to be cared for.
"Wait to see if the skin is broken, and then apply some medicine." Gu Wenzhu accelerated his pace home.
"My legs are still tired." Xia Zhu dragged his nose with a little bit of coquettish coquettishness.
"Go back and give me a rub."
