Shen Mo was still thinking about the agreement with Shuangxi, and of course he didn't want to fail the imperial examination, which meant that he didn't know when he could really be with Shuangxi.
Not to mention that Shen Mo, a young man who didn't know how to feel sad, was still thinking about him and Shuangxi.
At this time, Shuangxi was thinking more long-term. I don’t know how long it will take for this natural disaster to pass. There is only so much food in the house. These people always have to eat, and they can’t live in this open-air environment forever.
, if you stay there for a long time, you will definitely get sick.
So I discussed this matter with everyone.
Shen Ziyan nodded and said warmly: "We should find a place to live."
The place where I live... Although this highland has not been flooded by rain, there is not a single house on it, only a few lonely trees, and crops with their roots submerged.
Where can I live?
Shen Ziyan looked at the green grass next to the field and said, "Let's pull some grass. After drying it, it's good to put it under your body."
Shen Ziyan also escaped that year. He was still young at that time and his parents left early. He took care of several younger brothers by himself and lived in the mountains for several years, so he still had some ability to survive in the wild.
Su Yu, who has always been the one to call the shots, also listened to Shen Ziyan's words at Shuangxi's home. Seeing what Shen Ziyan said, she nodded and said: "In that case, let's act quickly. If someone reacts, we will lose the first step."
machine!"
Listening to Su Yu's words, Shuangxi just wanted to laugh. Are you trying to seize the opportunity by pulling weeds? He is indeed a profiteer! He never thinks so complicatedly.
But it didn't take long for Shuangxi to admit in his heart how correct Su Yu's idea was.
At first, some people saw them pulling weeds and didn't take it seriously. But later, some smart people realized it, and there were some people who were really hungry and crazy. They thought in their hearts, what if there is really no food in the future?
Okay, this grass... can satisfy your hunger at least!
So a crazy grass-grabbing battle began.
Quanzi was simply there at this time. When he came out, he brought out the Crouching Dragon Sword. The reason why he really couldn't bear to part with the sword was that the capital of martial arts practitioners would not forget their weapons easily.
The other reason is, of course, thinking that there will be chaos outside now. With weapons, it will be easier to defend ourselves. If we encounter anyone who is evil to Shuangxi, we will kill them directly!
The Wolong Sword is a precious sword after all. Cutting grass is like cutting tofu. Once you cut it lightly, a piece of it will fall down.
Shuangxi and others followed behind him. They gathered the grass together, then found a place with relatively clear water, washed it, fished it out, put it on a wooden stand, and then dried it in the sun.
It finally cleared up after the rain. Although the air was humid, the bright sun shining on the green grass quickly removed the moisture from it.
Looking at the piles of hay, Shuangxi felt a little happy in her heart. She couldn't help but recall that when she first came here, the Shen family was the same, with nothing. The Shanshen Temple was a borrowed house, and there was only a wooden bed and a wooden bed in the house.
Some dry straw and a few broken clay pots, but nothing.
Thinking of these now, Shuangxi doesn't feel bitter in his heart, it's the kind of memory full of happiness.
When a family reaches out to build a home together, the feeling is extremely happy.
A few people found another place and surrounded it with wooden sticks to prevent those people from trampling on it. They just waited for the land to dry, and then used grass and wooden sticks to build a simple tent on it.
Quanzi and Shen Yan borrowed a small boat from Liu Yi, returned to their homes, and took some necessary things, some clothes, and quilts.
Although these things have been soaked in water, they are better than nothing. For example, the quilt will be hard after being soaked in water, but after it is dried and thrown under the body, it will always be moisture-proof!
Everyone is working hard to survive together.
Because he is busy, Shui Sheng feels that he is here and does not feel that it is out of the ordinary. There are endless things to do every day, so naturally he will not think about what is there and what is not.
Shuangxi would occasionally talk to Shuisheng, but Shuisheng was already very satisfied.
The more they got along with each other, Shui Sheng found that the deeper he fell into... But he had always been a tolerant person, and he felt that he was not worthy of Shuangxi, so he kept hiding his emotions deep in his heart.
Gradually, he got used to the silent attention and protection.
Some are happy and some are sad. With Double Happiness, everything is going in the right direction, but others are not so lucky. Those who had a high fever a few days ago did not get better with the sunny weather, but became more serious.
stand up.
Some even started to... die.
Death frightened these victims who were already living in the heat of water.
Shuangxi weaved the dried hay into a straw curtain. This straw curtain is easy to weave and does not need to be too delicate. He picked up two thin strands of grass and twisted them into a rope to serve as a warp. Then he grabbed a small piece of grass with his hands.
Fold the hay repeatedly and press it between the two threads, and it's done.
Of course, it is not possible to weave one side like this. Fix the roots and heads of the grass in this way, and a simple grass curtain is formed.
"Oops." Shuangxi didn't notice that a piece of cracked grass scratched Shuangxi's finger.
The grass was hollow, and after it cracked, the turf formed was like a thin, sharp blade. Blood beads suddenly appeared on Shuangxi's fingers.
It was a coincidence that Liu Yi was passing by in a hurry at this time. Naturally, he noticed the blood beads on Shuang Xi's hand. He felt a pain in his heart and couldn't care about anything else. Just when he was about to step forward to comfort him, he saw Shen Ziyan.
He came over in a panic, grabbed Shuangxi's hand, and asked softly.
Liu Yi frowned and pretended that she didn't see him. Who was he and what qualifications did he have to care about Shuangxi?
Since he can't give Shuangxi a future, he can't provoke Shuangxi! Liu Yi reminded himself in his mind.
At this time, it was not only Liu Yi who was feeling sad, but also Shui Sheng, who was also weaving a straw mat. His hands were moving quickly, thinking to himself, he must hurry up, and any faster, it is best to give all the work to him.
I did it so that Xi'er wouldn't insist on doing these tasks.
Those men who love Shuangxi certainly don't want Shuangxi to do this, but now everyone is very busy. Some people go out to find food, and some have to return home from time to time to bring out some things.
It is inevitable that there will be times when Shuangxi cannot be seen, and at this time Shuangxi will be given the opportunity to work.
"Xi'er! Come on and sit here, don't do this, just have us." There was a hint of blame in Shen Ziyan's tone, but more of a deep concern.
Shuangxi suddenly smiled: "Ziyan, I'm not a glass doll, just let me do some work. I promise I won't tire myself out."
"Not even if you're tired!" Shen Ziyan's attitude was firm. Even if he wasn't tired, he didn't want Xi'er to do these menial tasks. There were so many men among them. If he couldn't take care of even one woman, he would be in vain.
Shuangxi smiled and said: "Zi Yan, it's good for your health to move at this time, haven't you seen? Those who are sick usually lie on the ground doing nothing."
What Shuangxi said is true. Those who get sick are indeed the ones who like to stay on the ground in the first place.
I think so. The ground is so humid, and the sun is shining brightly. It's hot and cold, how can I not get sick?
Shen Ziyan was speechless by Shuangxi, so he had to compromise, nodded and said, "Then don't worry anymore. If you hurt yourself again next time, I really won't let you do anything."
He dotes on Shuangxi, but not to the extreme level of blindness. He knows that leaving Xi'er idle at this time will definitely not make Xi'er feel good, not to mention Xi'er's words are polite, in this case
In the weather, moving is indeed better for your health than staying still.
Shuangxi looked at Shen Ziyan with a smile on his face, a look of deep nostalgia on his face, and then said softly: "Ziyan, looking at this small thatched tent, I suddenly remembered the time when we just came out of the mountains..."
When Shen Ziyan recalled that time, he looked nostalgic. He touched Shuangxi's head: "Xi'er, don't worry, our life will definitely get better and better. Even if there is nothing left, we will not let you
I’m so hungry, so miserable, and so tired.”
Shen Ziyan's words were so true that Shuangxi was deeply moved.
Shuisheng lowered his head and knitted the straw mat, as if he hadn't heard the words, but the movements of his hands paused slightly, revealing his restless heart.
The skeleton of the thatched shed is made of branches. As for the branches, it's too simple... Izumi can cut off the thick branches with a random wave of his sword, and then trim off the leaves on them, which can be used to make the skeleton of the thatched shed.
.
Tie the wooden sticks together with cloth strips, then insert them tightly into the ground, put a layer of oilcloth on top, and cover them with several layers of straw curtains, and the straw shed is completed.
There were a lot of people, so one straw shed was certainly not enough, so two were built.
The thatched shed is not big, just big enough for people to bend down to get in. Four people can lie flat inside, so the space is quite enough.
Everyone worked hard for three days before sleeping in this thatched shed, which made many victims envious.
There are those who are envious, and naturally there are those who want to get something for nothing. But looking at Quanzi's cold sword, no one dared to step forward. Didn't you see that he was obviously a practicing practitioner? How could ordinary people like them dare to go there?
Looking for bad luck!
However... in this world, there are always one or two weirdos who do things that are different from ordinary people.
"Hey! Come out!" It was just getting dark that day, and before Shuangxi woke up, someone started making noise outside the thatched shed, waking Shuangxi from his sleep. (To be continued. If you like this
