A massive famine! The whole family travels through time together, and with their spatial abilities,

Torre was annoyed by what he heard. Without much analysis, he could guess that the two fat men were not the same person.

"The fat man we inquired about along the way escaped with several hundred people, and the supplies he carried were at most only a few thousand kilograms."

"The fat man who appeared in this county but possessed so much grain must not be the same person!"

"I refuse to believe that such an eye-catching fat man, leading such a large group of people, could just disappear without a trace!"

"Yes, how about I take some men to Qinzhou to inquire? If they take the route to Qinzhou, they should converge there."

"Go ahead, be careful not to reveal your identity, and while you're at it, find out some news about Qinzhou Prefecture."

"Yes."

With over two thousand catties of miscellaneous grains that he had just plundered, Torre led his troops to Yingze Lake to rejoin the main force, his mood agitated.

original.

Torre planned to collect water and food in Yingze County and then immediately head to Qinzhou, hoping to capture it in one fell swoop.

Upon seeing the proclamation from Yingze County, Tuolei worried that Qinzhou had set a trap and decided to investigate carefully first to prevent any fraud.

Shen Shuli was unaware of this.

When we were fighting the Northern Barbarians in the mountains outside Qingyun County, most of the villagers fled.

A dozen or so villagers got separated from the others during their escape and did not encounter Su Yunhai's group, but were eventually caught by the Northern Barbarian army.

Northern spies discovered the bodies of their own kind on the back mountain of Qingyun County, but they did not find that important item on their bodies.

Following the traces left at the scene, the scouts investigated along the way and quickly obtained clues.

Their men were killed by a fat man weighing over 200 pounds who led a group of people!

Fortunately, the fat person's features are obvious.

They inquired along the way and killed off witnesses as they went.

The trail eventually ended at the four-way intersection leading to Yongzhou, Qinzhou, and Dingzhou.

The stakes are high.

General Bogda directly divided his 200,000-strong army into three routes, sending 30,000 troops to each of Qinzhou and Dingzhou to scout along the way.

Bogda led his main force of 140,000 troops to Yongzhou.

.

Shen Shuli paid ten taels of silver for the city exit fee and successfully left the city.

The moat, the Qin River, is located twenty li outside the city gate.

The dock is located downstream of the moat.

Many refugees left the city.

Almost all the refugees lingered on both banks of the moat, unwilling to leave.

The northern border has been suffering from a severe drought for more than ten months, and they haven't seen so much water in a long time.

No one is willing to leave.

The refugees gathered along the riverbank to catch fish and shrimp, at least they had something to eat.

However, there were simply too many displaced people gathering there, and no matter how abundant the aquatic products in the river were, they could not withstand the excessive fishing by the displaced people.

It's very difficult to catch fish and shrimp these days.

Shen Shuli walked along the riverbank towards the dock.

Looking at the riverbank that had already dropped more than two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters), I felt extremely complicated.

In just ten months, the water level of the Qinhe River has dropped so much.

If the severe drought continues, how long can the Qinhe River basin endure this?

On the one hand, she was somewhat relieved that the Qinhe River had not completely dried up, so she could secretly transfer water into the space.

But looking at the refugees on both sides of the strait who were reluctant to leave.

Without food, without money to buy food, and with the fish and shrimp in the river gone, how long could they last even if there was water?

It is likely that the prefect of Qinhe would not allow the refugees to stay in the vicinity for long, nor would he allow them to cultivate the land and use the river water for farming.

Such a high temperature.

Even if there is a water source.

The seeds simply cannot germinate, so watering the fields is a pure waste of water.

The dock is very large.

Many refugees have also gathered here.

Many migrants tried to find work at the docks to earn some copper coins to buy food.

Business at the dock was terrible, with fewer and fewer ships coming and going each day.

There's absolutely no work to do.

The number of ships docked at the pier appears large, but many of the large ships are simply sitting on the riverbank.

The Qinhe River's current water level is insufficient to support large vessels, forcing them to temporarily cease operations.

After having a general idea of ​​what was going on, Shen Shuli continued walking down the riverbank.

Been gone for a long time.

Finally, they arrived at a place where there were no refugees.

The riverbank here is very high above the water level, making it difficult to descend, which is why no refugees stay here.

Find a place below where you can step down.

Shen Shuli took out a climbing rope from her spatial storage and tied it to a nearby tree, with the other end tied to herself.

Slowly slide down the rope.

Take out an inflatable kayak that has already been inflated from the space and place it on the water.

Take out long spikes and nail them into the ground. Use a tow rope to secure the kayak to the spikes to prevent the swift current from washing it away.

After taking safety precautions, Shen Shuli carefully jumped into the river, climbed onto the kayak, and secured a sun umbrella.

She lay on the kayak, placed her hands on the water, and began pumping water.

Perhaps it's because of the space upgrade.

Shen Shuli discovered that the water collection speed was almost three times faster this time.

The stream in the space is deepening and widening at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It took two hours.

Shen Shuli didn't notice any live creatures like fish, shrimp, or crabs underwater.

This shows how frenzied the fishing grounds were.

Of course, it's also possible that the air temperature is too high, and the water temperature is also rising, causing aquatic organisms to die because they cannot adapt to the high temperature.

But nothing is absolute.

Shen Shuli remained lying in the same spot until late at night.

Aside from having snacks and drinking water to relieve his physiological needs, he maintained the same posture the whole time.

After nightfall.

Shen Shuli discovered that occasionally fish would be collected into the space when the water was collected.

She suddenly became very energetic.

He took a cup of spiritual spring water from his spatial storage and dripped a drop into the river every now and then to attract fish and shrimp.

really.

The effects of the spiritual spring water are amazing!

Even though it was diluted considerably, a few fish and shrimp still caught the scent and gathered towards her location.

Shen Shuli accepted all comers and collected all the aquatic products that passed by into her spatial river.

unconsciously.

Shen Shuli had fallen asleep at some point.

Wake up again.

Shen Shuli was awakened by the noise in the space.

She quickly got up and stretched, then remained in the same position on the kayak.

Quickly probe your consciousness into the space.

To her astonishment, the space had been upgraded once again!

The spiritual fields in the space have increased by ten acres.

The two circles of the number '8' each contain an additional five acres.

The warehouse and the spring water area have doubled in size.

After the initial surprise, she quickly checked the dozens of boxes of jade artifacts and found that only a dozen or so pieces remained!

It seems that jade is truly an essential item for upgrading your space!

Finally, Shen Shuli turned her attention to the river in the space.

She never expected that the river was more than 20 meters wide and more than 20 meters deep!

The river is about 700 meters long!

This river is so big, it should be enough for her entire team to reach their destination!

Shen Shuli was so excited that she could hardly contain herself.

She quickly planted wheat on all ten acres of vacant land.

Five acres of land were right next to the pasture, and livestock could easily cross the boundary and damage the grain, so she quickly installed a row of wooden fences to keep them out.

After finishing all the work in the space, it was almost dawn outside.

Shen Shuli quickly exited the space, drank a large gulp of spiritual spring water, and put away the kayak.

They climbed ashore using the climbing ropes and hurried towards the dock.
