Porridge and side dishes [farming]

Of course the spies left by the county magistrate at the foot of the mountain knew about this and hurried up the mountain to report the situation. After the county magistrate heard about it, except for the ones who built the house, he sent the rest of the people together with the officials and soldiers to set up traps around the camp.

Generals who march and fight know how to set complex and useful traps, but ordinary people don't know how to dig more traps.Make more wooden thorns and put them under the trap to increase the possibility of killing the enemy.

It is a matter of life and death, no one dares to steal, rape and play tricks, it is almost a day and night preparation.

There are more and more traps, and more and more places to cover.The rebels haven't gone up the mountain yet, but there are many more prey.Even though they had to work beside the fire every night, no one enjoyed it because of enough prey and enough oil and water to eat, and some children even gained a lot of weight because of it.

Anything that can't be eaten is cooked and roasted as soon as possible.

A group of women who also gathered collectively made dry food.Steamed buns are seldom steamed, and most of them are miscellaneous grain cakes with little moisture.This kind of cake can be stored for a long time without spoiling.

After preparing so much, the so-called fear is that after the rebels go up the mountain to search the mountain, the smoke from cooking will reveal the location.

On the days when the rebels really went up the mountain, they had to stop cooking and even burn fires for warmth.

Enduring the cold for a few days and eating cold meals for a few days is better than playing chess with the rebels.The purpose of going up the mountain is to avoid the chaos of war. I really don't want to hide in the mountain and suffer from the chaos of war.

The magistrate of the county brought some smokeless silver charcoal up the mountain to keep warm in the tent.But such a small amount of charcoal is not enough to cook for everyone for a few days.

Not to mention heating.

Under such conditions, there is no way to be perfect.

After going up the mountain for more than 20 days, basically everyone has adapted to the environment on the mountain.The weather is also getting colder every day.The emerald green on the trees became less and less, and there was a few days of light rain during the period, which made things worse.

While dealing with the coming cold winter, they also have to guard against the rebels who may go up the mountain at any time.

Li Ji was thinking about the county magistrate, and about those people in the village, and he was overwhelmed for the past twenty days.The county magistrate sent someone over to deliver some dried meat, but also to inquire about Li Ji's situation.

Li Ji and Er Gouzi made some delicious food, put on their armor and went to the camp together.

After going up the mountain for a long time, Li Ji always wanted to see how they lived.

There is a big bag of buns prepared here, which way to go, there is still a long distance from the camp, and I heard the soldiers keep reminding him to be careful, don't touch the mechanism trap and get hurt.

Once the people have dug the trap, they will not go there again.Then there will be experienced veterans covering the trap, so that he can't see that it is a trap if he doesn't pay attention.For example, this ordinary trap with ground thorns.It is forbidden to cover it with branches, and it is covered with withered and yellow leaves, just like other places.

The soldiers who came in and out all memorized the layout of the traps, as long as they were not careless, nothing would happen.

A group of people walked around and entered the camp, and the Yijin camp was full of busy figures.

There were people from his own village who knew Li Ji, so he hurriedly shouted and wanted to talk for a while, but was stopped by the soldiers leading the way, who only said that he was the person the magistrate was looking for.

How could someone snatch someone from the magistrate without a good eye?Li Ji and Er Gouzi entered the tent of the magistrate, and immediately saw the magistrate who was still looking at the map.

"Master." Li Ji called out.

Er Gouzi didn't speak, but his eyes still fell on the county magistrate.

The county magistrate raised his eyebrows and saw the two of them, he felt a lot of tension, and said with a smile, "Here we are."

Let the two sit down. Although the county magistrate has been aware of the situation of the two of them recently, no matter how much he listens to, he is not at ease to see them once.

The magistrate of the county said: "It's still getting used to the day. It's been cold recently, but you are well prepared, you shouldn't suffer."

No one is born to chatter, just because he cares, he will talk more.

Li Ji is used to mentioning the second dog, and said with a smile: "Master, you have prepared well, and you can pick up everything for enjoyment. It's good to come and take a look at the situation here, but you have suffered. The old days were so good. , everything is missing in this mountain, and Er Gouzi and I are still worried about you."

"I brought my servants to serve me, so I can't be wronged. It's fine if you come, I have something to tell you." The magistrate of the county said all the things down the mountain, and added, "I will give you all the time when the time comes. Xiner. In fact, in this mountain, if there is normal cooking smoke, it is too far away to be invisible. Just wait for them to go there, and you must not be found when you start the stove. These days, you should prepare as much as possible For dry food, if you are afraid of the cold, I have smokeless silver charcoal here. You don’t need to cook, and you might be seen breathing water.”

Li Ji nodded to indicate that he had written it down, and then asked: "Then, master, can you think of a solution?"

The magistrate smiled wryly: "Can it still be like this? I can only leave it alone? Set up more traps and more protection. Prepare more dry food, and don't light fires for a few days. This mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if it is discovered Well, these more than 1000 soldiers can also protect them for a while."

Li Ji thought about it seriously, and then said: "I don't understand anything, I have some immature thoughts in my heart, and I'm afraid you will laugh at me when I say it."

"Is there any joke or not? This is the time. To say a few more sentences is to have multiple ideas. It's okay for you to say it."

Then Li Ji said: "When I was young, I used to play hide-and-seek with children of the same age. When I hid, the first thing I thought of was not to find a hiding place. It was to make a false appearance, so that others would think that I was in the On the other side. In this way, as long as he looks in the wrong direction, I will win."

The county magistrate raised his eyebrows. This method is actually not uncommon when soldiers are fighting.The so-called virtual is real, and real is virtual.Leading the enemy in the wrong direction is indeed a good way to escape.

This Li Ji can't read, and he can think of this without reading military books, which shows that he is smart.

The county magistrate shook his head and said: "Warfighters are suspicious, let's lead him to a side road, they may not be fooled."

Li Jidao: "Actually, when I was young, I used this method a lot, and other people wiped it out. To hide and seek with me, you just need to look for the opposite place where you think I am hiding. Every time I play hide and seek, I will return a piece of me to a place. Afterwards, they discovered my method, so I simply stayed near my hiding place. In this way, no matter where they look, they will never look for me.”

The most dangerous place is the safest.

After hearing this, the magistrate's eyes lit up: "Hua Rongdao! This is a ready-made good plan, why didn't I think of it!"

The county magistrate knocked on the head: "Thanks to my self-proclaimed reading of poetry and books, I'm just an elm head."

Huarong Tao is an allusion, which I learned when I was very young.However, when I grow up, I read more and more miscellaneous books, but I forget all the solid ones.The more difficult the environment is, the easier it is to think in the direction of difficulty.In this way, on the contrary, the immediate solution is ignored.

"Hua Rongdao?" How could Li Ji understand this.

The magistrate of the county said: "This is an allusion. The main core is that it is true if it is false, and it is false if it is true. The more tricks you are used to on the battlefield, the better the effect will be if you do it the other way." At this time, the county Grandpa couldn't sit still anymore, he got up and went to find the commander.

But when he saw Er Gouzi, he hesitated a little.It seemed inappropriate to just leave after such a hard work, without even saying a few decent words.

Li Ji looked at Er Gouzi, sat down for him and decided, "We'll wait for the master to come back."

War is a major event, no matter what the reason is, it cannot be affected.

The magistrate nodded and went out to find the commander and the others.

The rebels went up the mountain to search the mountain.Naihe Mountain is too big, if people are scattered to search for it, once the target is found, there is no way to fight it and it will be solved.

But the soldiers gathered together are not conducive to searching.

Standing at the foot of this mountain range, looking up at the endless mountains, there is nothing to do.

In the end, I can only use the most stupid way to go up the mountain to search for it.Two days later, I was gradually able to find the past by groping for traces.It's the same as when Er Gouzi went up the mountain to find people.People will always leave some traces when they walk by.

Like a broken twig, or a bit of fabric left over from hanging on a garment. How could more than 3000 people go up the mountain without leaving any traces?

With this breakthrough, I groped my way up, and it seemed that I had come down the mountain to a camp-like place.

The camp also quickly dispatched a team, deliberately throwing more and breaking some branches on the way to the camp to make the traces more conspicuous.

At the same time, set a trap in another direction and lead in one direction along the way.Another hundred soldiers were used to urgently build a second "camp".

The county magistrate had prepared three residences for Li Ji and Er Gouzi, but now he has to sacrifice one.

The farthest one is also the yard with the same giant tent, which looks more like a camp.

The outer area was roughly surrounded, and a few bonfires were lit, and after they were burned out, they ran to the back to dig a hole, and a hundred or so people piled up shit one by one to distinguish, and then covered it with ashes.

In short, try to make an appearance that many people have lived and fled in the shortest possible time.

A lot of supplies were also prepared in the giant tent, and most of the things inside were brought out. The rest endured the pain and scattered some on the ground, and then stepped on it repeatedly with their feet.

As for the rebels, they have already begun to suspect. There are 3000 people in total. How could so many people accidentally leave traces?If the child is naughty, it's okay to break branches along the road to play.If you look at the cloth strips left behind by hanging the tattered clothes, there are too many left behind.

And the colors look similar, if it's on a piece of clothing, it's possible.

The leading general pinched the cloth with doubts on his face, ordered the whole army to stop, and began to discuss with other officers whether this was the ecstasy array set up by the other party, and they didn't go this way at all.

The final result is that it is very likely that the group of people did not go this way at all.

In this way, looking for it will only be a waste of time.

Make a decisive decision, and send out several teams to explore the way in multiple directions, and then come back to report the news.

After waiting for more than three hours, it was almost dark, and only then did two people come back in a panic.Just in the opposite direction, there are traps.And it is impossible to guard against.A team of seven people thought it was just a simple trap, but it turned out that the traps were linked one after another, and only these two people finally came out in embarrassment.

Looking at it this way, it is very likely which direction is the real hiding place of the group of people.

It was already dark, so I went rashly.Can only order to camp on the spot.

This night was difficult for the rebels, because they came from other places and did not know the local situation.I never imagined that there would be so many beasts on the mountain.The two night watchmen who went to the convenience only walked a little farther, and unexpectedly encountered a tiger, and the screams woke up all the rebels.

I went to hunt tigers, but in the middle of the night, tigers walk quietly, and it is difficult to find them hiding in the bushes.

And it occasionally jumps out to attack people, which is the most terrible thing!

It's dark, odd jobs, familiar with the environment.It can be said that the tiger has taken advantage of the right time and place.

After the rebels were in order, the tiger retreated and fled.

In the second half of the night, no one dared to sleep, and kept waiting for the next morning.Each of them was full of fire.

As soon as the day dawned, everything was convenient.Busy headed in the direction of the trap.

In this mountain, there are overgrown trees and lush grass.As long as the traps are careful, they can be hidden very well, and some subtle ones are simply impossible to guard against.

The local commander was originally a capable person, just like the county magistrate, he offended someone, and it had nothing to do with clearing the way.I thought this would be the end of my life, but I didn't expect that a war would put his full stomach to the test.

The commander's ancestors have been generals for three generations. Although he is not a general with a long history, the experience left behind is enough for the command.

This march in the mountains is a great knowledge.On the other side of the rebel army, those who are really capable of fighting are all commanding the overall situation at the front battle.The generals sent to go up the mountain to wipe out the "little matter" left by the imperial court will naturally not be too smart.

This may be because God is helping the poor people on the mountain who are hiding from the battle.

This time, this group of people completely believed that the county magistrate fled in that direction with the people.The more traps you encounter, the more you believe that going inside is the goal of extermination.

They take care of traps, so the speed of advancement is not fast.But what they didn't know was that they were marching forward cautiously. Just ten feet ahead of them, there was a group of commanders and soldiers rushing to make traps.

At the same time, there are people in the fake camp that are constantly improving, trying to make him look more real than the real one.

It took two full days to advance a few meters.Dozens of people were lost during the period.

How could the generals of the rebel army be willing?At this moment, he wished he could eat the meat and drink the blood of the county magistrate, so he held his breath and wanted to enter the camp, kill this group of hidden dangers, and then transport the rich supplies down to receive the reward from the lord.

Finally, I saw the smoke in front of me.The fires are gas-fired, and the smoke is especially great when the weather is wet.The rebels could already vaguely see the deliberately lit cooking smoke rising from the false camp.

Such a faster speed, directly dispatching a group of dead soldiers to explore the way, or capturing some wild animals to explore the way forward, greatly reduced the sacrifice of one's own people and accelerated the forward speed.

Four full days passed before the rebel army finally saw the giant tent from afar.

Entering the camp, there is a mess in front of my eyes. There are many traces of burning fires on the ground, as well as leaves used for barbecue and sitting on the ground.

With such a knock, it is indeed the way many people have been.

Breaking into the giant tent, everything inside is definitely a luxurious specification for the mountain, and it is definitely not built overnight, which is in line with the news that the preparations have been started a long time ago.

And some food was scattered on the ground, obviously left behind when they fled in a panic.

At this time, in the main room, I found a letter.

There are not many serious generals who can read and write. When their status rises, at most they can recognize some words commonly used on the battlefield.

Therefore, the army saw a letter written in a literary manner, and they could only send it down the mountain to the lord to take it out.The general who led the soldiers up the mountain led the soldiers to continue searching for the whereabouts of the county magistrate and others.

I wondered, so I took out the fake camp and looked around. I am afraid that I will not be able to find the real camp in a month or two.

At this time, Li Ji still received very little news.Because he was afraid of being discovered by the scattered rebels on the mountain, Li Ji cut off the news from the county magistrate.The county magistrate wanted the two to hide in the camp for a while, but Li Ji was concerned about the four people in his family and Yang's livestock and poultry, and Li Ji's residence was even more remote, which was safer than the large population of the camp.After the magistrate raised his mouth, he stopped talking.

At this time, Li Ji can be said to be unable to eat and sleep.I thought it was safe to go up the mountain, but if it was destroyed by the rebels, it would have been better to be at the bottom of the mountain, or escape or resign yourself to the arrival of the rebels.Anyway, if you die at home, you don't have to sell a place on the mountain where you may not be found in this lifetime.

Of course, Li Ji just thought about this idea and let it go.Because from the situation at the time, going up the mountain was indeed the best way.

The stove has not been turned on in the house for two days.To sleep at night, I just spread two more layers of quilts and cover them tightly, and the two of them hugged each other to keep warm.During the day, I can only drink water and eat dry food. The days are like before, but much more miserable.

Er Gouzi didn't think anything of it, because life in the mountains was hard, but Li Ji was different.

"You said we will hold on for a few more days." Li Ji said.

Er Gouzi shook his head, looking at Li Ji, he just felt that he was much more miserable than the previous two days: "Want to eat stir-fried vegetables?"

Li Ji and Er Gouzi will not pretend.He smiled, nodded and admitted: "Look at me, I'm still so greedy at this moment."

"I thought about it too." How could Er Gouzi dislike Li Ji's greed?I'll take the pot to a farther place to cook, and I'll bring it back when I'm done. "

Li Ji shook his head again and again: "Don't worry about it, I'm not afraid of being missed by other meat eaters in the mountains. It's only a few days, if not, isn't there a place to live there? Let's go there and have a meal or two." Come back after eating."

With the map, it is not difficult to find the third giant tent.To blame or to blame Li Ji for being lazy, and afraid of exposing the third giant tent.

Li Ji grabbed a handful of jerky and chewed it as snacks.Now apart from mowing grass and drying it for the livestock at home, the rest of the time is idle.Just eating snacks like this, in fact, I was never hungry.I can bear it if I don't start cooking right now.

The county magistrate sent it down in one go.Now the first crisis in the camp is finally over.As long as the letter is handed in, if the rebel is concerned about the people of the country, he should not cause trouble for a while.

Most of the crisis has been resolved, and the people in the camp still have to continue preparing for the winter.

Enough houses to withstand the cold, enough firewood to keep warm, enough food to last through the winter, enough trap defenses to protect everyone through the winter.

If the mountain is blocked by heavy snow in winter, and the traps dug on the ground are filled with snow, it may not be able to provide any protection, but may bring danger to people because of the slippery road.

Therefore, it is still necessary to prepare wooden boards, cover them in winter, and then set up the mechanism mainly on trees, so that even if it is snowed three feet, it can still attack people or beasts that approach.

The more difficult the environment, the easier it is to stimulate people's imagination.Not only the people in the army, but also the common people have used their brains one after another to gather their personal ideas together, and they have really made some big breakthroughs.

For example, to keep warm in the tent, the brazier must be opened a little, otherwise it is easy to suffocate people to death.And once the brazier is burned out, the heat will dissipate quickly, and after midnight, they are basically frozen next to each other.

The common people are used to the hot kang and the fire wall. When facing this kind of tent, they simply combine the two into one.

Those who have rich experience in building houses suggested digging a simple earth dragon under the tent.

It doesn't have to be too much trouble, just dig a ditch inside the tent and go straight to the outside.All of them are covered with flame retardant slate.If stone slabs are not enough, you can use clay to burn paper to make simple pottery slabs. As long as you pay attention not to step on them all the time, they can be used for a long time.

Then make a mud chimney, and open a hole on the top of the tent to let it out.In this way, you only need to light a fire in the stone pit outside the tent, and the fireworks can pass directly from the chimney above.The heat of burning spreads throughout the tent floor through the stone ditch, and the heat emitted by the chimney can make the whole tent warm.

In this way, even if it gets cold in the middle of the night after a fire is heated up, the person on duty at night can still light the fire outside the tent to keep warm.

The existence of the tent was originally intended to be a simple mobile house, but now the tent is in the camp because there is really no house to live in, and a tent is used instead.Then it is better to modify the tent and turn it into a simple and convenient decent house.

In this way, the inside of the tent can be as warm as a real house, and the cost is also greatly reduced.

After the first earth dragon tent that should be used was made, the magistrate experienced it himself for one night.The next morning I sat down and decided to change all the tents in this way.

In fact, it is easy to put away such a modified tent and use it as an ordinary tent. After dismantling it, you only need to replace the parts that were cut off from the roof.Such a change will make life more comfortable for the people who are trying to survive in the camp.

A few days later, the rebels finally received a message from the lord, ordering them to withdraw their troops.Except for the hundreds of soldiers who stayed behind to defend the city, all the rest returned to the battle of conquest.

No one knows what the county magistrate said in the letter.

Another drizzle.Li Ji's house was burning warmly. After collecting the rainwater, he boiled the water and took a hot bath. Soaking in the hot soup, he felt that his whole body and mind were about to melt.

In order to save water, the two of them soaked in the same tub as they should.There are some dried flowers prepared by the magistrate of the county, and the servant helps to soak some dried flowers and sprinkle them into the bath water.The scent of flowers blows along with the water vapor and fills the room with warm humidity, which is very comfortable.

This is the second time the two have bathed since they went up the mountain.Because I didn't have a chance to take a bath a few days ago, I feel that my young master is a rotten one.So this time before taking a bath, I wiped my whole body with a towel, and only waited until it was almost clean before soaking in the bathtub.

When I ran out of the shower, I was reluctant to pour the water out, so I scooped up the petals and used them for washing clothes.After washing the clothes two or three times, the water has no foam and then poured them out together.

There is a toilet in the yard, but because the giant tent is somewhat closed, I am afraid that the smell will not disperse in the yard.So put a toilet in the toilet, pour water once a day and rinse it clean before taking it back.Animal manure was also piled far outside the tent.When planting in the next year, the manure is retting and then mixed into the ground.

The camp on the county's grandfather's side is very lively every day.Occasionally there will be some conflicts when many people gather together. The easiest solution is to separate them.The county magistrate managed to rest for a while and came out to walk around, only to see that the soldiers had just solved a round.

The magistrate of the county had seen enough excitement, and saw the spies he had arranged at the foot of the mountain come up to report the situation.

"Master!" The spy said and saluted.

"What happened again?" In fact, the county magistrate didn't want to see them go up the mountain.Because they are likely to bring bad news when they go up the mountain.But there has been no news about them, and I feel anxious in my heart, for fear that they will have an accident at the foot of the mountain, so that they will not even have the opportunity to report the news up the mountain.

"Reporting to my lord, there has been no major incident at the foot of the mountain recently, and there are still only a few hundred soldiers. Although the common people are a little miserable, their lives are safe. It's just those who are still serving their sentences in prison..."

"Just tell me what's the matter." The magistrate frowned.

The spy said truthfully: "If you talk about big things, you can't talk about it, that is, all those annoying people who were locked up were released and arrested and became soldiers of the rebel army. They should have been sent to war-torn places as dead soldiers by now."

The magistrate frowned slightly.In fact, when the war broke out, the future of the original prisoners in the prison was only a few paths.Either serve as cannon fodder for the army, or kill them all to avoid the scourge, or let them go to fend for themselves, or drive them away from afar, so as not to harm the local people.

The county magistrate went up the mountain in a hurry and thought about how to deal with this group of people several times, but they all put it on hold for various reasons.At least they can't be allowed to join their own army.Because all the soldiers in the county are going up the mountain, there is no need for dead soldiers, and it is even more impossible for a group of them to come up to disrupt the situation.

So before going up the mountain, the county magistrate didn't have time to arrange them.Now they have become members of the rebel army and went to fight with the rebel army, which really left a scourge.

Everyone who is sentenced to prison by the county magistrate deserves to be punished.The county magistrate is not a mean person. Although he has the laws of Daxia in his hand, as long as ordinary people are not outright bad people, the county magistrate will give them a chance.

Most of them don't last too long.

And those who knew their mistakes and did not correct them, or even committed serious crimes, and those who could not be reported to the higher authorities, the county magistrates put them in prison.

At the beginning, I didn't want to let them go to harm the people, and I didn't want to drive them out to harm other people, but their crimes were not worthy of death, so I dragged them all the way up the mountain to no avail.

Now that they have become rebels, they have directly raised their disadvantages to the highest level. How could the magistrate not regret it?The intestines are all green with regret.

"When they go to the battlefield, most of them are rushing to the front to block the knife, and they don't live long. When the war is chaotic, it depends on their own destiny. This is how it is. You go back and continue to watch." County The grandfather said this to the spies, but also to himself.

It has been a month since I went up the mountain.The rain that fell on the ground had begun to freeze.Fortunately, the houses in the base have built enough places for everyone to live in.Not enough land has been reclaimed, but it will be the same after the next year's reclamation.

Too late to dry firewood.There is a lot of charcoal prepared, which is enough for heating and cooking.

The first thing to do right now is pure meat.There are a lot of grain and dried vegetables, and it will not be difficult to harvest them next year.In fact, even in the original life at the foot of the mountain, the common people would not be able to eat meat once or twice a month.Some families are more difficult, and some have not eaten meat for several years.

On the contrary, after going up the mountain, I can eat one or two pieces of meat almost every day.Some people even have the idea of ​​living here all the time.After all, the isolation of the deep mountains and old forests here, without the chaos of war, is simply a paradise. ,

Why doesn't the magistrate think so?For the first 20 years, he has been in the officialdom.Because his relatives interfered in political affairs and formed a party for personal gain, the county magistrate refused to stand in line and was finally demoted here.

I always heard Li Ji say that when he retires and returns home, he will live with Li Ji and his son.

After a month in the mountains, the county magistrate really wanted one like this, to live a leisurely life of picking chrysanthemums and seeing Nanshan leisurely under the eastern fence.

Of course, it's not easy at all right now.If the war is over and the county magistrate moves into Li Ji Er Gouzi's giant tent, it's actually quite good.

Little Tudou works during the day and reads at the battalion commander of the county magistrate at night.Sometimes when encountering words that I don’t know, or places that I don’t understand, I will gather together and ask the county magistrate.

Although Little Tudou is naughty, he has a good brain and can basically remember everything he has told him clearly.After a long time, the county magistrate also had a good impression of this little potato.Just give some more pointers.

Who is the magistrate?That's Tanhualang's background, he was ranked third in the national student science examination that year, and for so many years, because of his high status, he has read too many sage books, and his cultural background is naturally incomparable to the county teachers.

Little Tudou is also famous, and there is an on-demand broadcast by the county magistrate. This question is not only a leap forward, but it also benefits a lot.

It must be eye-catching for this little potato to study in the tent of the magistrate of the county every day.Li Tian, ​​the cousin's elder brother, also wanted to study with him, but Little Tudou mentioned it to the county magistrate but didn't respond, so he didn't say anything more.Little Tudou is a smart person, and he will not bring up the county magistrate again and again.

But what books I read at the county magistrate every day, I will give it to Li Tian to listen to later.

When Yingzi has nothing to do, he will listen to it and recognize some characters. In his spare time, he will also read the books that Xiaotuo got from the teacher.

During the rest time before and after meals, the three children were either reading with books in their hands, or they were muttering something while carrying something on their backs.Some children came together curiously, and the three of them asked them to write some simple poems.

If you are at the foot of the mountain, you need to use silver taels to learn something.The children's parents are also happy that their children can read and read, and they never stop and support them very much.

Then the poems became nursery rhymes for the children in the camp, so common that even adults memorized them.

How could the magistrate of the county have expected this time?He was so happy, so he simply picked some catchy poems and handed them over to Little Tudou for him to teach.For a while, the camp was more literary and ink-scented, and children who were babbling could read two poems.

Ignoring in the mountains can also isolate the troubles of the world.The county magistrate really wants to enlighten the children and let them study.

This day, the magistrate of the county dealt with the affairs of the day, and everything in the base was on the right track, so there was no trouble.The county magistrate was reading a history book when he heard Little Tudou calling for his lord.

The magistrate raised his eyes and asked Little Tudou, but he didn't understand anything.

Little Tudou said truthfully: "Craftsman dare, some things I can't figure out, so I can only ask you, my lord." The more books he reads, the more polite Little Tudou becomes.

"go ahead."

Little Tudou brewed his rhetoric before saying: "At the beginning, the fourth grandfather sent the grassroots to study, saying that there would be a broader way out of studying. Mr. also said that the grassroots should study hard, and in the future, they will make a small contribution to the country and society. But Now that the war is raging, the grassroots think that no dynasty will last forever, and it may not be the Ming emperor who will serve in the future. Then why do they still need to read and read? I have read some history books, although I can’t understand many places, but I know The intrigue inside. Since reading and writing can't avoid disputes, and they all look the same, what's the use of reading?"

This is what Little Tudou has been thinking about for a long time.It's also thanks to his familiarity with the county magistrate, otherwise he would never have dared to say this.

The county magistrate was slightly stunned when he heard this, and thought about it: "As expected of Li Ji's nephew and grandson, he is almost smart enough to be together. The fact that you can think of this just proves that your brain is better than ordinary people."

Ordinary people only think that reading and literacy is a good thing, but few people really think deeply about it.

"Please ask the adults to clarify."

The magistrate of the county put down the history book in his hand and said: "You are right, the change of dynasties has been explained this way from ancient times to the present. Don't say that the man lives forever. There has never been a dynasty that can exceed ten thousand years. Not only reading, but everything There is no guarantee of eternal peace in this world. Changes cannot change the world. You think that the highest goal of reading and writing is to serve the community, but you don’t know which king you will devote yourself to. Your thinking is right and wrong.”

Little Tudou shook his head to express his understanding.

The magistrate of the county said: "I also had an idea in the past. I studied for fame and fame, and I worked hard to shine in the imperial examination. But after so many years, I realized how ridiculous it is to fight for fame and fortune."

"Ridiculous?" Little Tudou was even more puzzled.

"Reading and reading have never existed with a certain goal. Obtaining fame is just a choice after you read and read. What you can learn from reading the books of sages does not come from what the sages tell you, but from what the sages tell you. It comes from what you want to get from it. To put it simply, reading is to understand the truth, to be able to understand what others are saying, and to be able to clearly express your own thoughts word by word."

Little Tudou seemed to understand, bit his lip and didn't answer.

The magistrate continued: "If you read and read for the sake of fame and fame, then you don't have to. Because there are some people who don't study and become officials. If you read good books, you may not be a good official. But in the process of reading What you get will become the essence of your lifelong benefit. Maybe you can understand these by reading more books and broadening your horizons.”

Little Tudou nodded, although he couldn't understand everything, he wrote it all down: "More adults to clarify."

In fact, if Xiaotuo asked someone else, he might get a completely different answer.What the magistrate did was to tell Little Tudou what he thought.As for how Little Tudou understands, as the county magistrate said before, it still depends on what Little Tudou wants to get from it.

Perhaps, what Little Tudou understood from the county magistrate's words was completely opposite to the county magistrate's thoughts, and it was possible.

Little Tudou is finished, but Huigen is pretty good.The county magistrate cherishes talents, and this is Li Ji's grandnephew, who loves the house as well as Wu, so he treats little potatoes better.

When the cool rain in the sky is matched with snowflakes, it means that winter is coming.Basically, people who are prepared are not afraid of the coming of winter, but rather look forward to less work after snow falls in winter.Can have some free time.

Li Ji and Er Gouzi cooked some good dishes.Came to camp together.Because I have been here twice before, I can be regarded as familiar with the road.When they got to the periphery, Li Ji called out twice to come over after hearing the movement, and then led the two of them in.

It was getting late when we came here, and when we entered the county magistrate's tent, we happened to see Little Tudou who was studying.

Li Ji was slightly stunned, and Little Tudou hurriedly stood up and called Fourth Grandpa and Second Dog Uncle.

Li Ji followed the two dogs to meet the county magistrate, and then asked why Little Tudou was here.

"This child is quite spiritual, and he is a good material for reading. It just so happens that he has the desire to read on, so I let him come and read the book for an hour every day. It's a coincidence that he is your biological nephew."

Li Ji chuckled: "I said it's a good thing for children to study more. Although this little potato is a bit mischievous, he is not bad-hearted and smart. Reading will only benefit him."

If Little Tudou is really disgusting, even if
