Chapter Thirty-Five: Harvest and Illusion

  Remember in one second

  The devils are coming, now in the surrounding villages, it's being said that the devils will come to rob food, that's why several villages known by Liu He simultaneously initiated the premature harvest program.

  Hurry up and harvest, otherwise the devils will come and take away our grain, and there will be nothing to eat next year. Naturally, Li Village won't fall behind either, so everyone has already started working in the fields ahead of time.

  "Oh dear, what a pity! Look at this grain, it's just been harvested and is still green. If we had waited a few more days, the grain would have ripened completely." Some elderly people shook their heads and sighed as they looked at the immature grain in front of them.

  It's all Liu He's fault, who made him not study history well? Who knows when the devils will arrive here? He also doesn't dare to say you shouldn't prepare for it, saying that the devils won't come is not convincing.

  He absolutely dare not say this, if the devils come and take away the grain, they will regret it to death.

  Now Liu He's organized ghost-hunting teams have also put away their knives and guns, and the horses are grazing in the southern mountains. This is a rush harvest, so they must be rushing to harvest with all their might. He thought the devils wouldn't come to the village and start slaughtering people, but because of this, he committed an unforgivable mistake.

  。

  The name of the team is Da Gui Dui, which was given by Liu He Xin. The original name "Bao An Dui" was taken by Liu Xiu Cai's team. Someone suggested to call it "Da Gui Zi Dui", but it didn't sound good, so they removed one character and called it "Da Gui Dui", which can also confuse others.

  After a few days, the grain was all harvested and weighed. It was only then that it was discovered that this year's harvest was less than last year by nearly 30%. At that moment, the villagers were not happy in their hearts. Whoever had a reduced grain income would not be happy.

  Liu He found that the villagers were all doing something, and the grain was quickly dried. Each household had its own underground tunnel. What time did they dig it out?

  Only after Liu He asked did he learn that this was dug out by Liu Xiu, who had organized it when Liu He led people to fight the devils. Naturally, this tunnel was not too big, just enough to hold some grain.

  Right away, the village's sickles and stone mills were all put to use. The sweet potato seedlings and peanut seedlings that Liu He brought over the past few years had increased the variety of crops in the village. In the past, they only grew enough to fill their bellies, but now with higher grain yields, it was natural to grow more varieties. Grain crops and oil crops both needed to be planted.

  The pumpkin vines and peanut vines were all cut short, then taken to the mill to be ground into powder. Originally, this was supposed to be used as animal feed, but now it's being put on noodles just for show, so that the Japanese devils can see it. Even some corn flour is mixed in, also to prevent the devils from taking all the corn flour for themselves. Occasionally people will eat a bit of this, although it tastes bad, it's not poisonous, right? Especially under Liu He's orders, the villagers haven't said they're not used to eating it yet. Even families that raise dogs use this as dog food - cook up a pot and humans can have one meal, while the dogs will follow and eat for several meals.

  This is also a masterpiece of Liu Xiucai. All the meals are in uniform style, and this uniformity refers to eating bran. Within a few days, there was only one meal that didn't require sending someone out to look for food, while at other times, the three meals a day changed by Liu He were changed back to two meals a day.

  Every day before meals, the village security team members would be arranged to go outside the village to keep watch. They even learned the bird call communication method. Once an emergency bird call was made, the whole village would quickly eat up the freshly cooked food that could be eaten, and the food that couldn't be eaten quickly would be put into the grain storage tunnel. Then they would start cooking another pot of rice and wait there.

  This Liu Xiuzai is really capable of coming up with anything, it's said that when Liu He led the crowd to fight the devils, he had made many warnings for the villagers and even went from door to door for inspections.

  "I'm telling you, it's not that I'm heartless. Wait until the devils have taken away your food and then you'll know what pain is. Don't think that eating a little bran now is so difficult. If you were to eat bran every day, I'd like to see how you'd talk."

  。”

  Although the words are rough, in short, an idea has been planted in people's minds that devils do not have a surname. Indeed, they really don't have surnames. In later generations, Liu He often heard a saying: Japanese people are also considered human beings. Yes, they are really not human beings; they are just beasts.

  Look at the big girls and daughters-in-law in the village, when the devils come, they will naturally not have time to hide. I don't know where Liu Xiu got the prescription from, but every family with big girls and daughters-in-law would get a small piece of it. It was smelly and sticky, and nobody knew what it was. Once applied to the face and body, it seemed like they had contracted some serious illness, making people dare not approach them.

  "Liu He, you say I need to apply this too?" Zhang Zhen looked at the thing and felt disgusted. "Later on, you can choose not to apply it. Maybe if you don't wear makeup, the Japanese devils will think you're ugly and unbearable, and they'll let you off."

  Liu He said with a smile, of course Zhang Zhen is not an ugly girl, in the village she is even one of the most beautiful, you say if those devils saw her, even if they didn't have a beastly surname, they wouldn't let go of such a beauty.

  "Don't say that, when the time comes and I'm bullied by the devils, it's you who will suffer." "Why? You're being bullied, what do I have to lose?" Liu He said, not understanding the subtlety.

  "I won't tell you," Zhang Zhen said, her face red as she ran out. Liu He is just that kind of person, in this life and the next, he's always been unimpressed by beauties and has an air of not understanding romance, looking at Zhang Zhen's behavior, it's so obvious, he just doesn't get it, what can you do?

  The village is fully prepared, just waiting for the devils to arrive. Some people might say that you're eagerly awaiting their arrival, but can you stop them? Liu He came from a different time with only a few pieces of gold, not golden fingers like some other travelers who have knowledge overflowing from their brains and even emit an aura of majesty from the top of their heads, causing heroes to flock to them. With just one stomp, they could conquer the earth or even the universe. But Liu He is just an ordinary person with no superpowers, having left all his knowledge in school, so he can only focus on prevention.

  Liu He didn't know that something big had happened in the neighboring village. This matter really couldn't be blamed on him, it could only be blamed on the devils for not being human, they were just a bunch of beasts.
