Early in the morning, Xu Wenyan and Chen Sanlin disappeared.

No one knew where they were going. They were still working in the fields when they saw Xu Wenyan coming back from the back mountain, trembling with Chen Sanlin on his back.

"What happened to you? Are you injured?" Wang Cuijuan was the closest and hurried forward to check.

Xu Wenyan didn't say anything. This was already his last bit of strength, and he persisted until he sent Chen Sanlin to the chair in front of the door.

He sat down on the ground sideways, gasping for breath, with beads of sweat dripping down his forehead.

Several people gathered around anxiously, and Xiaohua hurriedly poured a glass of water for them.

Xu Wenyan took it and drank it all in one gulp.

"No, it's nothing serious. I just got scratched by a wild boar. By the way, the wild boars are still in the forest, just east of the back mountain. You can see them by following the traces we left. There are three of them. Go quickly."

After saying that, Xu Wenyan returned to the sleeping cave and took out the blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointment to apply to Chen Sanlin.

"Fortunately the collision wasn't very serious." If it was an adult male wild boar, it would have to lie down for several days after such a collision.

Not long after, Zhou Jianye and his companions carried the wild boar back.

"You went hunting secretly without telling us." Zhou Jianye smiled helplessly.

"Everyone knows how dangerous the mountains are. Even if you are very strong, you can't go there alone."

Finally, Xu Wenyan promised that he would not do that again next time. Then the others went to do other work. The wild boar hair had to be bleached and the lard had to be squeezed. The only drawback now was that there was not enough salt.

I don’t know how to store so much pork.

Now it can only be air-dried, and this storage method can only keep it for a few months. I have to eat a lot of meat these days.

......

In Jixiang Village.

Since he had just arrived, Wang Zeren decided to complete his main task first.

He personally escorted the seeds and asked the refugees to plant them, in order to prevent them from eating the seeds directly due to hunger.

This farmland has not been planted for several months. The soil has been plowed in the past few days. Today is the time for sowing. Since he has no planting experience, Wang Zeren asked these people to do it.

Anyway, if they can't pay that much grain in the end, they will have to suffer more.

In addition, the construction of a military camp near the village chief's house must also be put on the agenda.

Wang Zeren was sitting on a chair and Ermazi was standing beside him.

"Commander Wang, what did I tell you before?" Er Mazi rubbed his hands and asked with a smile.

Wang Zeren opened his slightly closed eyes, stroking a piece of white jade in his hand, and after thinking for a moment, he replied, "Not yet."

After just these three sentences, Ermazi understood what Wang Zeren meant. In fact, he didn't really want to provoke those people in the mountains. First, he had just arrived here and had no preparation. Second, he had too few people under his command, and he didn't know much about this place.

If we really do it, there may not be a 100% chance of winning.

But people are always greedy, and Ermazi will not give up so easily.

"By the way, have you found out Xiaoman's identity?" Wang Zeren said casually, rolling the white jade with his fingers.

"There's nothing special about his identity. People in Feng County said that he used to work as a waiter in Zuixianlou, a tavern in the county. They couldn't find out anything about him before that." Ermazi repeated the investigation news in full.

Wang Zeren closed his eyes again and enjoyed the sunshine.

This work continued until almost dusk.

"Here, Xiaoman." Luo Sanyuan held a persimmon in his hand and handed it to Xiaoman.

Although it is small, it is also a rare fruit: "Where did it come from? It is not common."

"Er Mazi gave it to us. He gave it to two of us and I ate one." Luo Sanyuan sat down in the main hall and raised his right leg and placed it on his left leg.

Xiaoman smiled and put the persimmons into the house: "Thanks."

"Just know that I'm good to you, brother. When are we going to go hunting in the mountains? I used to hunt a lot when I was in Yunnan." Luo Sanyuan smiled and raised his chin to Xiaoman: "Here, I'm as insincere as a bird."

Xiaoman sat down opposite him: "You'll have to wait for a while. I'm busy lately."

"Commander Wang is really unlucky to be assigned to such a remote place."

"You and Commander Wang are both from Dianzhou?" Xiaoman poured a glass of water for Luo Sanyuan and asked.

Luo Sanyuan put his legs down, took a sip of the tea, and sighed slightly: "Oh, yes, there are Ermazi and Xiao Liu, we are all soldiers from Dianzhou.

Dianzhou is close to the capital and has not yet been conquered by the Qian Kingdom, so the city is not too desolate now."

Xiaoman nodded.

"Don't underestimate Commander Wang because he has a bad temper. He is actually very loyal. In the past, when other military camps bullied our camp, he led us to fight back that same day!

Afterwards, they treated us to drinks and meat. Our military in Dianzhou had never lost a battle with the State of Qian!

Do you know why? "

Luo Sanyuan said proudly: "Of course it's because of our Commander Wang. It's a waste of Commander Wang's talent not to follow General Huo into battle this time.

Otherwise, he would have made great military achievements."

Xiaoman still listened to Luo Sanyuan with a smile. This was the reason why Xiaoman chose to be friends with Luo Sanyuan instead of Ermazi.

He is a simple, stubborn and straightforward person. He will tell anything to anyone who has a good relationship with him.

As for Ermazi's cunning, Xiaoman didn't want to test it.

"Hey, Xiaoman, your stove is really warm. Can I come over and hug you in the winter? We can be intimate, haha."

"Haha, don't do that. There are so many girls waiting for you. Do you want me to take you in through the back door?"

Luo Sanyuan was not convinced: "Hey! Why are you the one who left me? I can leave you too."

After chatting for a while, Xiaoman sent Luo Sanyuan away. This man was good in every other way except that he talked too much. He could talk for a long time by himself.

Xiaoman cut the persimmon into two and placed one half on the table.

I tasted it carefully and it was really sweet.

Lying in bed, I remembered that Xu Wenyan used to sell persimmon cakes.

I don’t know if the group of people in the mountains are them.

Anyway, Xiaoman himself believes that apart from Xu Wenyan, no one else in this village has such ability and intelligence.
