The prince is very cruel
Chapter 946
In the remote mountain village east of Shu, there lives a family.
The other tiled houses had already been emptied. This was also the decision made by Guan Ning in order to better protect the elders and villagers in the future. Thousands of elders and villagers moved to the deep mountains in the hinterland.
Once the enemy breaks in, we can retreat to the valley behind, or at worst cut off the bridge, at least to prevent thousands of civilians from being exposed to the enemy's sword.
Of course, all of this has to be voluntary. There are also a small group of elderly people who are unwilling to leave the thatched houses where they have lived all their lives, and the old man Baihua mentioned is one of them.
He was alone, childless, and only had a black dog.
As soon as someone approaches, the black dog barks non-stop.
The old man walked out with a cane, and although his eyes were blurry, he recognized the albinos at a glance and was immediately excited.
"Brother Bai, why are you here?"
"Hahaha, I thought I would never see you again in this life."
Baihua also walked up happily: "I came to see you, to see you!"
The two old men didn't exchange many pleasantries, they just hugged each other. Both of them had white hair. That scene made Guan Ning feel a little touched. At their age, it really is true that they see each other less and less.
"By the way, Lao Xu."
"Let me introduce you. This is our lord of Bashan and Shu, Guan Ning!"
"Everything we eat and use now is given to us by our lord," Baihua said.
Guan Ning immediately stepped forward and said, "Mr. Bai, your words are too polite. I am Guan Ning, nice to meet you, old gentleman."
Old Xu was shocked, and his old hands trembled unconsciously. He seemed a little surprised by Guan Ning's youth, and also a little flattered by Guan Ning's politeness.
"Oh, no, no, you are a noble from Shu, how dare I..."
As he said this, he was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Guan Ning.
"Mr. Xu, there's no need to do this. You are my elder, and it's my duty to show respect. If you do, I will shorten my lifespan," he joked.
Hearing this, Lao Xu showed his almost lost teeth, smiled foolishly, and said embarrassedly: "Okay, okay."
"My lord, you are absolutely right."
"Come in, sit inside?" he asked tentatively, feeling a little embarrassed because his house was so shabby.
Guan Ning agreed immediately: "Okay."
"You guys just wait outside, Mei Niang will bring the food."
"Yes!"
Sheng Qi and others were waiting outside, only Hai Mei followed in and brought in a lot of rice and meat. Although they were not rare things, they were good things in Shu.
Old Xu was very happy that someone came to see him at his dying age, and that the guest was a distinguished one. He took out some of his treasured aged tea and brewed a pot of tea in the black teapot.
Not to mention, the taste is better than many big restaurants.
Baihua gradually brought up the incident of Shenlongjia that year. Lao Xu's eyes looked drowsy, but when this matter was mentioned, he immediately became energetic and held Guan Ning's hand.
"My lord, this is true."
"real!"
"I saw it with my own eyes. The rice fields were full of wheat, densely packed and golden. I reached out and touched it. I found that one wheat plant had more than a dozen ears, and one ear could have dozens of grains!" Lao Xu was extremely serious.
Guan Ning was slightly surprised. As a time traveler, he knew very well that such a production volume was exaggerated.
"Mr. Xu, do you still remember how you got in?"
"Where exactly is Shenlongjia in Lingnan?"
Mr. Xu frowned and fell into deep thought.
"My Lord, I don't remember this clearly... I was only forty when I mistakenly entered, and now I'm over seventy. More than thirty years have passed, and I don't know if the old immortal in Shenlongjia is still alive."
"A magical place must have a legacy. I want to try my luck there, if not for anything else, just to give Bashan and Shu, and all the refugees in the world, a bite to eat."
"So, Mr. Xu, could you please recall what happened back then and tell me everything without missing any details? This may help me, help my Shu area, and even the whole world." Guan Ning said seriously.
