Chapter 19 Green Yi's thoughts (1)
The scorching sun is like fire, hanging in the sky, spewing out thousands of poisonous flames. Sitting in the house, you will sweat profusely, let alone those who work outside. Anyone with some family property will try every means to avoid the temperature like a mountain of flames.
After the Dong family was attacked by horse thieves in Lintao, they began to move to the ranch.
According to Dong Yuan's idea, they built a two or three-person-high wall around the ranch. On the wall were private soldiers from the Dong Mansion patrolling. There were guard posts every 500 steps in the ranch, and more than a dozen tall buildings were built.
Below each building, there is a beacon hole, with cow dung and hay inside.
Once there are traces of horse thieves, the beacon smoke will spew out of wolf smoke, and the entire pasture can be assembled in one stick of incense.
Dong Yuan's idea made everyone in the Dong family admire him.
Mrs. Dong even said that the four girls in our family have become sensible and have begun to plan for the family and have really grown up.
Every time Dong Yuan talks, she feels red in her face and feels guilty. She knows very well that these ideas are all written by Dong Qi and Dong Yu. She is just a conveyer, but she didn't expect that she would make me happy like this.
Maybe I used to be a bit too erratic.
Starting from May, the Dong family spent a lot of money to recruit seniors with skill in Xiliang to guard the ranch. On the 17th, a Qiang native of Liangzhou came to recruit Yadan. This man was seven feet tall, but he had a beautiful face. He had a horse with a crotch and a wind knife. He was more proficient in one hand and a hidden weapon. He shot a gun with two feet and shot a hundred shots. He was known as a wind gun in Xiliang and was quite famous.
On the 21st, another man from Yinping, Yongzhou came to apply for the recruitment. This man was a Di person, good at using big axes and was extremely brave.
On the 23rd, Huang Dao from Wushan came to apply for the recruitment.
...
In just one month, the Dong family ranch became tightly guarded, causing the Qiang land horse thieves to flee when they heard of "Dong".
In mid-June, the imperial edict arrived in Lintao, and ordered Niu Fu to take over the Lintao County Captain, and at the same time he still served as the post of Xusi School Captain.
As a result, the military and political power of Lintao was all over the Dong family, making the Dong family's reputation in the local area increasingly strong.
*******
These troublesome things have nothing to do with Dong Qi.
Because the old lady cared about Dong Qi, she brought her fellow villagers to the ranch not long after Dong Qi moved to the ranch.
As I get older, my attachment to my children and grandchildren becomes stronger.
In addition, the old lady was extremely fond of Dong Qi, so she was unwilling to separate from Dong Qi for a moment. Mrs. Dong originally wanted to move out of Dong's mansion, but she had no choice but to move the house in Dong's mansion, which would not take a day or two. She simply sent someone to build a large-scale project on the ranch. While ordering someone to pack their luggage at home, she explained some things to Niu Fu.
As soon as Mrs. Dong left, the owner of Dong's mansion was Niu Fu!
In fact, Niu Fu also wanted to go to the ranch. Everyone knows that following A Chou's side is the safest. Although the Shaoge horse thieves were wiped out, there were no other horse thieves who could not be allowed to spy on it. However, as the county magistrate of Lintao, it was difficult for him to leave. Fortunately, the ranch was not far from Lintao, and it formed a horn-like situation with the county soldiers stationed in Lintao.
As for the horse thieves and Taiping Taoist people captured that day, most of them were beaten into slavery and included in the Dong family ranch.
Anyway, Niu Fu is a county lieutenant, so it is easy to do these things.
Who is willing to ask for horse thieves? Who is willing to raise a bunch of gangsters? Looking at Lintao, there are no one else except the Dong family.
Dong Qi's life has become more colorful because he moved into the ranch.
In the early morning, he marries with the lion-maned beast; then he works hard to practice martial arts. At noon, he listens to Cheng Fang and Dong Yu read military tactics for him, and in the afternoon he competes with Yadan and the other three in martial arts. By the way, he also learns the art of throwing guns from Yadan.
Another month passed in a flash, and the weather became hotter and hotter!
On this day, after Dong Qi and the Lion Mane Beast fought, they lay on the grass and breathed heavily. No wonder, after fighting for three months, they still failed to defeat the Lion Mane Beast. Dong Qi felt that his strength had increased, but the Lion Mane Beast's strength was also increasing. However, Dong Qi also discovered a problem. Although his time to dance the hammer has increased, it is still difficult to swing the 150-pound sled hammer freely. Not to mention the authentic drum-beating golden hammer.
How can we strengthen our strength and endurance?
This has become a big problem that Dong Chu urgently needs to solve at present.
When fighting with Yadan and others, the other party didn't know Dong Qi's background at first, and they often lost in three or five rounds. But as they became more and more familiar with Dong Qi, Yadan and others discovered Dong Qi's fatal weakness. So, they no longer had a head-on confrontation with Dong Qi, but tried to fight as far as possible, in order to consume Dong Qi's strength and then win.
Even Pei Yuanshao discovered this problem. Although he surrendered to Dong Qi, this guy still wanted to regain his face.
After a while, the endurance is indeed increasing, but the number of failures is increasing.
Dong Qi was very distressed. He knew that if he didn't try to make up for his shortcomings, he would end up miserably in the future.
What to do?
Dong Qi sat shirtless on the grass, holding a firewood stick in his mouth and pondered.
He didn't notice that a pair of eyes were looking at him silently. Lu Yi sat on the hill not far from Dong Qi, holding her knees with her hands, quietly looking at the contemplative Dong Qi. Her agile eyes were now a little sad.
"Girl, what are you thinking?"
Dong Yu walked to Lu Yi's side and sat down, followed Lu Yi's gaze, and then smiled and said, "Little girl is moved by the heart of spring!"
"Miss, don't talk nonsense!"
Lu Yi's face turned red, as red as the clouds in the evening. She held the corner of her clothes with a slight hug, lowered her head, and said in a almost mosquito-sounding voice: "Young Master, such an amazing person, won't fall in love with me, an ugly girl."
"Haha, I'm still saying that it's not like spring? If Lu Yi is an ugly girl in our family, I think there are not many beautiful women in the world. Besides, there is nothing wrong with liking Ah Chou. He is very outstanding. Although he is a little ugly, he knows how to love others."
"But, I'm just a little girl..."
