Tomb raiding: Intercepting Yin Xinyue and building a family of immortals

The order to distribute the grain ignited cheers from the crowd.

Soon, under the guidance of Su Renzhao and others, each household in the clan received nearly 100 catties of rice, about 3 catties of pork, and 3 catties of vegetables.

The remaining 500 jin of rice was sent to the village granary as stored grain.

The practice of eating from the same pot was a last resort.

Now that the hunger crisis was resolved, Su Chen decided to distribute the food among the families.

Of course, this grain wasn't distributed for nothing.

From now on, all customers, even those who don't provide cooking equipment, will have to send someone to the security team to be responsible for patrols and other tasks.

After the grain was distributed in a lively atmosphere, the villagers busied themselves with cooking.

The children, in particular, stared wide-eyed at the pork, which was covered in fat!

You should know that even if they haven't suffered a disaster, the only time they can eat meat is during festivals.

Don't even think about it normally; you'd be lucky to even have a little bit of watery, oily food.

Su Chen turned his head and saw Black-backed Lao Liu standing in the distance, looking out of place. So he walked up to him and said with a smile, "Old Dao, come on, I'll take you to your place first."

After saying that, he pulled the black-backed old man to his house without saying another word.

Su Chen's family has three mud-brick houses. They're not exactly nice, but at least they have a roof over their heads to keep them out of the wind and rain.

As he busied himself fetching bedding for Black-backed Old Six, he heard Su Renzhao's voice from outside the courtyard.

When the two went outside, they found Su Renzhao and his companions carrying a lot of grain and pork.

Su Chen's parents are both dead, and Xiao Tian and Xiao Hu are in a similar situation; they don't have any elders in their families.

On the way back, the group decided to go out for dinner with Su Renzhao.

The rice and grain from several households were all sent to Su Renzhao's family.

So, Su Chen and Black-backed Lao Liu quickly packed their things and followed them to Su Renzhao's house.

While his fourth aunt was cooking, Su Chen called everyone to the yard.

Right now, there are four Hanyang rifles and a large wooden box full of bullets in the yard.

Su Chen said slowly, "Fourth Uncle, you saw what happened in the mountains. The tomb is very dangerous. It's no exaggeration to say it's like walking on a knife's edge!"

"So, half of the money from the sale of the Blood Jade Cicada was used to buy muskets!"

Su Renzhao pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said, "I don't object to buying muskets, but the key is that we don't know how to use them!"

"Then let's practice!"

Su Chen waved his hand, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.

"Starting tomorrow, Fourth Uncle, Sixth Uncle, Xiao Tian, ​​Xiao Hu, Xiao Ling... all of you will practice shooting with me. Within ten days, you must at least learn to fire a gun and be able to aim roughly accurately!"

The requirements weren't high, and Su Chen didn't expect to train them all to become sharpshooters; that was unrealistic!

Su Renxiu had been itching to get his hands on those Hanyang rifles for a while.

Seeing that Su Renzhao was still hesitant, he immediately said, "Oh, Fourth Brother, what's there to hesitate about? We've already bought Xiao Chen's gun. Having a gun is better than using a bow and arrow!"

Su Renzhao had learned hunting from Bao Dongha and was the only person present who had ever handled a gun.

He knew very well that bows and arrows had almost no advantage over guns.

For example, when he was at Lishan, sending him with a broken bow and arrow to fight against zombies with copper skin and iron bones would be tantamount to throwing his life away.

Whether it's lethality, accuracy, or rate of fire...

The Hanyang rifle far surpasses the bow and arrow, and an adult, with just a little training, is no less skilled than an old man who has been handling a bow and arrow for several years.

"Alright, let's practice shooting tomorrow!"

Although Su Renzhao was conservative, after this windfall, he realized that there was no future in guarding the three hundred acres of barren land in the village.

If another famine strikes, who knows how many more people will die in the village!

Rather than waiting to die, it's better to do as Su Chen said, fight hard, and fight for the future of the family.

"Furthermore, as the family prospers, it will inevitably attract jealousy and envy from outsiders. Therefore, the young people in the family should also be taught how to shoot. When the time is right, the Su family security team will be established."

The so-called security teams were local private armed forces unique to the Republic of China era.

Many of these were armed forces organized by local gentry in towns or villages to protect their respective areas.

In Uncle Ying's movies, Captain Ah Wai, who always makes a fool of himself, is actually the town's security captain.

Security teams like Awei's, with a dozen or so guns and a group of men, were numerous local armed forces responsible for maintaining order in the town during the Republic of China era.

Su Renzhao nodded; he did not object to the establishment of a security team.

In the past, people were so poor they had to flee famine. They had nothing to worry about, so naturally they didn't need to.

But now, every household has stored grain, and every family can eat meat.

Over time, it will inevitably attract envy.

As they spoke, smoke rose from the kitchen in the distance.

A delicious aroma of food wafted out instantly.

The group of people in the courtyard were making cooing noises all by themselves, and Su Chen was no exception!

They were so hungry that each of them had only eaten one coarse flatbread since early morning!

Fortunately, they didn't have to wait too long. Auntie Si steamed a pot of rice, and also made two large bowls of braised pork and two kinds of stir-fried dishes.

When the food was served, Su Xiaotian and the others stared in disbelief!

The group hurriedly and noisily went to get the rice!

Everyone gathered around the large table, all looking at Su Chen.

Even Su Renzhao and Su Renxiu were no exception...

These days, everyone is very particular. Although Su Chen is not old, he is the patriarch of the Su family.

Moreover, after these incidents, everyone subconsciously regarded him as their pillar of support.

Su Chen shook his head and laughed, "Why are you all looking at me? Let's eat!"

Upon hearing this, everyone rushed to grab the food from their bowls.

As Su Ling'er ate, she couldn't help but shed tears.

"Why are you crying?"

Su Chen was puzzled and quickly asked.

Seeing everyone staring at her, Su Ling'er felt a little embarrassed. She wiped away her tears and explained softly, "Brother Xiao Chen, I haven't eaten a bowl of rice in over a year, and I suddenly thought of my mother."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Fourth Aunt, however, held Su Ling'er's hand and comforted her, "Good child, from now on, Fourth Aunt will be your mother."

Soon, the meal was finished, and even the soup in the bowl was scraped clean.

Then the group went home.

Su Chen returned to his room, took a deep breath, took out the Mauser pistol from his waist, and placed it on the only dilapidated wooden table in the room.

The four hundred silver dollars from the sale of the Blood Jade Cicada were all exchanged for guns and food, but two hundred silver dollars remained untouched in the system space.

He planned to practice his shooting skills during this time, and only consider the Blood Corpse Tomb matter once Xiao Tian, ​​Xiao Hu, and the others had reached a decent level of marksmanship.

Of course, the most important thing is to see what rewards you can get from the newbie gift pack!

If they're still so stingy, not even offering a feng shui method, then forget about finding a blood corpse, they won't even be able to find a tomb!

Biaozi Ridge is more than a hundred times larger than Lishan Mountain, stretching for more than twenty miles, and is the general name for a small mountain range.

Moreover, they were already lucky to have found a burial tomb before, and it's impossible for them to be so lucky again!

At that time, it would probably take several years to find the mountain range that stretches for more than twenty miles by manpower, inch by inch.

Coming to his senses, Su Chen took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "Whether I'm a dragon or a worm depends entirely on the newbie gift pack..."

"System, open the newbie gift pack!"
