Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    A few people hurriedly finished eating and returned to the camp.

    Li Da ordered: "Long Gang, arrange for people to set up porridge sheds in the downtown area of ??the city, and let the soldiers left by Huo'er maintain order. Those who go to eat porridge, no matter rich or poor, should use two spoons per person, all with fine  rice. Remember, the porridge should be thick enough that it won¡¯t fall over when you insert chopsticks.¡±

    Hai Shou was very puzzled as to why the lieutenant-general was so stubborn. Hu Chun and Duolan were both with him in the city this time, and they admired the boss's actions in their hearts.

    The next day, I took out the grain directly from this rice shop and piled it into a small mountain in the downtown area.  Four large pots are used to cook porridge together.  But from morning to noon, no one came to eat.  Hanako who came and went turned a blind eye to the porridge shed, and the officers and soldiers patrolling the streets also turned a blind eye and did not interfere with the porridge shed.

    Ye quickly sent someone to report to Li Da.  Li Da just smiled and said, "Tell Yesu, buy four more big pots and continue cooking without extinguishing the fire."

    Dolan understood that Li Da was a person who saw things through and a person with a bitter background. People had never tasted the feeling of starvation.  Someone must be causing trouble now.

    In the afternoon, these four large pots also cooked thick white rice porridge. The smell of white rice porridge filled the city, but no one came to receive the porridge until the time when the lights were turned on.

    Huo'er's soldiers began to yell and curse, saying that the people here were too arrogant and didn't know what to do.  Ye quickly stopped them, feeling unhappy, especially when he saw someone nearby pointing fingers, which made him feel uncomfortable.

    These soldiers ate two bowls of porridge on the spot, finished their dinner, and were ready to go home. Who knew that Li Da sent someone to bring the roster and set up two tables next to the porridge shed. Four of them could write Western characters.  People are waiting to register their names.

    There is a sign in front, with two fonts, Western and Chinese.  Yeshua took a quick look and saw that it was a notice. Those whose families had no food to eat should register here. Tomorrow, grain and rice would be sent to the Chinese mission.  But false reports do not count.

    Yesu and the others did not dare to slack off. He ordered them to prepare and light the torches.  After a while, people gradually moved this way like stealing landmines.  More and more people gathered, and soon they came from all directions.

    The officers and soldiers were shocked. What the hell, they were watching nearby. As long as someone moved, everyone would swarm.

    Huo'er's soldiers shouted to line up, and soon they formed eight teams. These people all brought bowls, and each of them had a bowl to eat first.  These soldiers told everyone that if anyone queues up twice, you will kick him out. Who told you to be stupid? There is porridge during the day and you don't come to eat it. How can there be so much porridge at night?

    After a while, Li Da sent a message again, saying that he would not stop whenever there was someone.  Yesu had no choice but to gather the porridge together, empty the stove and continue cooking porridge. The eight large pots took turns until the moon went down, and people gradually dispersed.  The soldiers were paralyzed with fatigue.

    There are also 200 households registered here.

    He also quickly ordered a tent to be set up nearby, and everyone slept there for the night.  The next day, Li Da sent over a general's banner officers and soldiers, led the war horses, found several local people, and delivered the food to the address.  Li Da said, don¡¯t take back any false reports, and we¡¯ll talk about false reports next time.

    "However, everyone found that there were very few false reports. It seemed that everyone still had a little face.  More and more people registered. One morning, the place was crowded with people, but the local government paid no attention.

    ??The enthusiasm that came along the way to provide relief was gone, and everyone felt it was boring. They felt that it was not worth it and a little embarrassed to rub their hot faces against others' cold butts.  But the boss Li Da didn't seem to care.

    But how long can two thousand stones of grain last?  It bottomed out soon.  Hu Chun didn't wait for Li Da's order, and sent someone to contact the big rice store owner and buy another three thousand stones.  Who knew that at this moment, all the camps were hanging out without rice.

    Li Da got the report and knew that this was all for the mission. He remained calm and waited to see what their next move would be.

    Three days have passed. At almost noon, the old sentry commander reported that the brigade was less than twenty miles away from the main camp and had sufficient food.

    Li Da felt relieved now. He now had two hopes. One was that the grain transport team would arrive soon; the other was of course Chen Lu.  The reason why he is confident is because of his trust and dependence on Chen Lu.  With Chen Lu here, there is no obstacle that the mission cannot overcome.

    Li Da ordered to continue giving up the porridge.

    On this day, as the mission was preparing to have lunch, there were sudden bursts of earth-shaking noises. The ground shook violently and the big tent tilted this way and that.

    Everyone thought there was an earthquake, but Xizi reacted quickly. Regardless, he picked up Li Da and rushed out of the tent, placing Li Da in the open space.

    Li Da smiled and said, "Xizi, you have mechanical instinct. We live in tents, so what if there's an earthquake? Daju, take a quick look at the city." Wang Daju took Piaoyuan from Li Da's hand.  The mirror walked to higher places.

    But this voice??continues and becomes more and more intensive.  Wang Dadai reported back: "There is nothing unusual in the city. Our officers and soldiers paused for a while and continued to give up porridge."

    Everyone looked at each other in shock, and Dolan knew in her heart that this was a war, and creatures from all over the world had already invaded.

    She hurriedly ran to the deserted place behind her. When she arrived at the stable, someone called her. It was Master Yimie and Old Toad, asking her to use the Jade Cup of Illuminating the World to protect the ten directions of the world.

    Seeing no one nearby, she jumped up, came to the sea of ??clouds, chanted a spell, and a green light flew out and rushed towards the clouds. The color of the sea of ??clouds instantly changed, colorful, and gradually turned into thousands of rays of light, as green as young bamboo.  The newly grown leaves are slender.

    Soon, the sky and the earth disappeared, the sea of ??clouds disappeared, and the sun disappeared. It was a chaotic green. Everyone and everything was hazy and glowing green.  There is a kind of warmth and coolness in the green, as if there is a hint of cold air coming out.

    Duolan heard the commotion in the camp, and then the dust fell.

    People are looking for her everywhere, and Nalan is on full alert. Although she doesn't know that she has lost her skills, the red embroidered bag and the green dragon sword are not on her, and she feels unsure.  Moreover, the exercise book disappeared again. She also tried to do the exercises, but to no avail. Her mind was confused and she had a premonition that she might be in big trouble.

    When Dolan came over, Nalan asked, "Sister, what's going on? Is there a war in the sky?"

    Dolan saw that she was asking a strange question, and knew in her heart that she had almost forgotten the original thing, and said, "Don't be afraid, it will be over soon." Everyone heard it, and they all believed in these two sisters.  I feel relieved now that I have a little understanding of the ten directions of the universe.

    "But the people in the city didn't know what was going on. Every household lit up torches and prayed to the sky.  Some people say it was caused by the arrival of these Han people.  Why did they come and cause it?  No one knows and no one can answer.

    It¡¯s just that my empty stomach couldn¡¯t compete with the sweet taste of white rice porridge. After doubting it for a while, I still queued up to eat the porridge with my bowl in hand.

    The camp had calmed down and had a leisurely lunch. The old sentry commander and Huo'er had already arrived.  Li Da was very happy and asked them to sit in the big tent and eat with everyone.  The old sentry commander glanced at Nalan, unwilling to die, and reported the situation along the way.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
