But who could have imagined that a huge locust plague would suddenly strike, leaving most of Pinggui Country without a trace.
For the vast majority of people, this is definitely a disaster that falls from the sky.
Even Zhang Dadao's family suffered a lot from this disaster.
Of course, after decades of savings, it is basically impossible for Zhang Dadao's family to starve to death in a mere locust plague.
But it happened that Zhang Dadao was a philanthropic person, and he did not want to see his relatives starve to death, so he funded a lot of food supplies.
This is where trouble comes for funding.
A cavalryman from Beiyue Kingdom took advantage of the locust plague and the instability in Pinggui Kingdom to raid Suping County.
But when attacking the county seat, the county magistrate Zhang Zhicong saw that the city gate was about to be breached, so he immediately ordered people to burn the official treasury!
The millions of kilograms of grain stored in the official treasury were reduced to ashes by the fire, and the commander of the Beiyue Cavalry, who urgently needed this batch of grain to support the battle, almost lost his temper and went crazy.
Therefore, the commander of this cavalry immediately divided his cavalry into fifty groups, each with forty cavalry, because of the lack of food supplies from the enemy, and rushed towards all parts of Suping County.
Their only mission is to collect food!
Naturally, Zhang Dadao, a kind man, quickly became the target of a group of enemy cavalry.
No way, no matter how good a person is, some people will hate him.
Take Zhang Dadao as an example. He has a principle for supporting his relatives, that is, those who have a surplus of food at home will not be able to do so.
The reason is very simple. Zhang Dadao worked hard to feed Zhang Dadao’s food with his feces and urine, so why should he give it to the lazy man?
In this way, he offended one of his distant relatives by opening his sharp mouth.
This sharp mouth is not a name, it is just a nickname. Because it likes to steal chickens and dogs, just like the sharp-mouthed mice in the countryside, it was named Zhang Jianzui.
He has been called this nickname so many times that no one remembers his real name Zhang Guomu.
This pointed beak originally wanted to go to a neighboring village to steal an old hen for a tooth sacrifice, but he was discovered by a Northern Moon cavalry while on the way.
Zhang Jianzui, who was so frightened that his whole body was shaking, heard the cavalry leader ask who had the most food in the area. Without even thinking about it, he immediately reported Zhang Dadao's name, and at the same time asked him to lead the way with a flattering look on his face.
As a result, needless to say, the Beiyue Cavalry rushed into Zhaogui Village and surrounded Zhang Dadao's family.
Fortunately, apart from being hardworking and willing to work, Zhang Dadao also has another advantage: he is timid.
While building his big yard, he took his whole family to dig a passage underground leading to the outside of the village.
Otherwise, after those cavalry broke into his house, no one in his family would be able to survive.
These Beiyue cavalry are not good people. Zhang Jianzui, who was brave enough to lead the way, not only did not get the benefits he imagined, but after the cavalry leader confirmed that the big yard was Zhang Dadao's house, he directly drew his sword and killed Zhang Jianzui.
Killed on the spot!
Needless to say, the Beiyue cavalry invaded the Zhang family and plundered food.
After Zhang Dadao and his family escaped from Zhaogui Village, they were a little confused. However, Zhang Dadao was indeed timid and had already thought of an escape route. He bravely returned to the village, picked up his daughter and his family, and fled towards Shiwanda Mountain with his family.
go.
The Zhang family was harmed. The other villagers in Zhaogui Village who had the brains immediately fled with their whole family, while the brainless ones closed their doors and hid in the cellar shivering.
But in the end, even those who hid at home could not escape the butcher knife of Beiyue Cavalry.
For those Northern Moon cavalry, they have no plans to permanently occupy this land. The only way to reduce the enemy's war potential is to reduce it as much as possible.
Zhang Dadao initially thought of waiting for a while to go back and see if he could retrieve anything, but then came a sudden heavy snowfall.
Although the heavy snow that fell quickly put an end to the locust plague, it also made it impossible for the villagers staying outside to continue.
At this time, Zhang Dadao did not dare to stay in the forest outside the village. He took his family, the gathered relatives and some villagers to escape towards Shiwanda Mountain.
The escape lasted five days. Since everyone was escaping in a hurry and the road was covered with heavy snow, it was really difficult to find something to eat.
As the head of the family, this big ladle naturally had to set an example and left all the food for the younger generation. As a result, he himself starved to death.
The patriarch's wish is to find a pure land for his family to thrive and prosper, which is the meaning of paradise.
As Fang Xiaoyue accepted the task, the sound of the dice continued to sound.
"Two items of the body's abilities are temporarily given randomly!"
"Zhang Dadao's original ability: farming and finding water are temporarily given to success."
Fang Xiaoyue sighed, and while feeling the age of this body, she asked with great effort: "Ping An, where are we?"
He became an old man as soon as this happened, and he had to drag such a big family to survive in troubled times, which really made him feel a little worried.
You must know that in this ancient war-torn era, the age of fifty or sixty is almost equivalent to the modern longevity of eighty or ninety years.
"Dad, we have arrived at Wulilin."
Zhang Ping'an, who looked tall and thick, had an old face and was almost fifty years old, immediately came up to him, knelt down slightly and said.
Wulilin?
Fang Xiaoyue looked through Zhang Dadao's memory and found that the name of Wuli Forest was very straightforward. It was a small forest five miles away from the entrance of Shiwan Mountain.
This made him breathe a sigh of relief.
No way, it has just arrived, and the body of this big ladle is dilapidated, just like an old house that has been built for fifty or sixty years and encountered earthquakes, mudslides, and volcanic eruptions. It has been through all the trouble before, no wonder it died.
But for Fang Xiaoyue, there is still a chance to save this body, but the only problem is to have food!
When his toughness was upgraded to level 5, he gained an additional effect of weak recovery. He only needed to eat and drink enough, and then sleep to speed up his body's recovery.
What's more, after the toughness is raised to level 6, the additional effect of this weak recovery becomes stronger.
"Is there anything left to eat?"
Fang Xiaoyue also knew that all the food she had brought with her along the way was eaten up. If they hadn't found some wild vegetables on the roadside, this group of people would have starved to death.
It is precisely because of this that Zhang Dadao insisted on letting the younger generation eat first, and eventually starved to death.
"Dad, no more, but my second brother is leading a group of people to look for food in the woods."
Zhang Pingan looks tall and strong, but in front of Fang Xiaoyue, he looks like a little chicken. This is probably the inertia that has been formed all along.
"Grandpa! Grandpa! Look what I found?"
A surprising voice sounded from the woods, and it quickly moved towards this side.
Fang Xiaoyue turned around and saw a boy who looked two times stronger than his peers.
