He is from the end of the world

Chapter 7 Relationships

Although he had made sufficient psychological preparations before, Lu Ciyu was still shocked by the backwardness and poverty of this village when he saw it with his own eyes.

Li Zheng only cooked two dishes, a dish of dried cowpea shreds, a little minced meat can be seen faintly, and an unknown plate of green plants that looked like wild vegetables. It doesn't look like much but smells great.

The food is not the point, the point is the meal.

Rice has always been the main source of income for the villagers. The annual tax income depends on it, and farmers rarely eat it once. The villagers usually sell the newly planted rice to the grain store in the town, leaving a small portion of the shriveled rice that does not look good for their own consumption. Some people even sell the new rice to trade the old rice with the proceeds, just to save money. Lower middle price difference. Rao is rarely eaten like this.

Not to mention the pasta, which may be due to the regional climate and the quality of the seeds. The noodles here are coarse and black and gray, and they taste sandy. Don't even think about the pure white flour of modern times here, you can directly pay tribute to the royal family when you take it out.

Lu Ciyu has no objection to these things. In the early days of the apocalypse, he teamed up with others. He couldn't take out the food in the space outside. In order to resist hunger, he even gnawed the bark of the tree. What were these things?

Whether it is rice noodles or meat, it is Lizheng and Lao Langzhong's greatest sincerity. They have put the best things they can offer in front of him.

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that there was no difference in him.

His favorability level was desperately rising without him noticing.

Lu Ciyu suddenly remembered the three prey he caught, and it seemed that they had fallen into Lin Chi's house together with the backpack. I was afraid that they should fall into the belly of the second aunt tonight. He didn't feel bad for those things, but he was inexplicably stuffy.

I hit someone I approved at noon, and I want to eat my food at night, what's the point?

Li Zhengjian was suddenly angry and sullen when he was sitting on the side, and when he asked the reason, he couldn't help laughing: "Hui Niang has robbed you of those things, and put them in your yard, and you can see them when you go back."

Rob?

Lu Ciyu was a little surprised. She thought about the excellent deeds she had just inquired about with the old man, and then thought about the outspoken lady of Lizheng's family. It was indeed something that the two of them would do. I couldn't help laughing, I was in a good mood.

"Aunt Hui knows that uncle is eating here?" After thinking about it, Lu Ciyu couldn't help but ask, if she didn't know how to let people wait at home empty.

Li Zheng nodded: "I know, I said hello to her before I came."

Only then did Lu Ciyu feel completely relieved.

He finished the bowl of food in a few bites, leaving the two of them in the room to continue chatting, saying hello to the hot porridge in the kitchen and calling Lin Chi.

The child also seemed to have just woken up. He rubbed his eyes for a while, and seemed to be a little unconscious. When Lu Ciyu came in, he just looked up at him with wide eyes.

Lu Ciyu was stunned fiercely, she couldn't help but touched her hair, and whispered, "Come and eat."

Lin Chi responded in a low voice, holding the porridge bowl and said nothing.

Lu Ciyu held her chin: "Eat slowly, Uncle Lizheng just went to Lin's house...". He noticed that Lin Chi trembled almost invisible when he heard the words "Lin Jia".

"He said that you were very ill this time, and you knocked your head again, and you won't lose your life if you don't get enough treatment." Lu Ciyu specially emphasized the words "lost your life" and gave Lin Chi a warning look.

"I've been living here for a while. You have to take good care of yourself. The wound on your head can't be exposed to the wind, and you can't easily go down to the ground to work. It's all about taking care of your body."

Lin Chi was still a little incredulous, and repeated in a trembling voice: "Live... live here?!"

Lu Ciyu nodded, is there anything wrong?

Lin Chi held the bowl, spoonful after spoonful of the porridge in the bowl, and remained silent.

There are so many people like him in the village, how can Li Zheng and Lao Lang Zhong manage from house to house. Even if it is managed, after the outsiders leave, should the door be cleaned up or cleaned up, or even more miserable.

The same is true for him. If it hadn't been for a near-life accident, he wouldn't have disturbed Uncle Lizheng...

How could his injury be so serious? Uncle Lizheng would only say this on purpose because he was distressed...

Lin Chi's eyes were flushed, and his face was red. But it was a bright smile that Lu Ciyu had never seen before.

The voice of the conversation outside was getting lower and lower. Lu Ciyu estimated that the two of them had run out. He got up and went out and grabbed the tableware and chopsticks in Li Zheng's hand, washed them and put them away, and helped Lao Lang Zhong clean up and dry them on the floor. Herbs clean the yard.

After he was busy with everything, guessing that it was almost time, he took out the other half of the pills behind his back, stuffed it into the preserved fruit and fed it to others, carefully sifting through what he had to do before getting up and saying goodbye.

For the next few days, Lu Ciyu has maintained this pseudo "three points and one line" state of "on the mountain → old man's home → own home".

When he went back that night, he did see his belongings in the courtyard. The prey was bound by Aunt Hui's legs and couldn't run around, but it was a little wilted after being left to hang out for a day. He and Aunt Hui didn't meet directly, and he didn't know if the other party had any doubts about the intact animals he had hit.

At dawn the next day, Lu Ciyu went to Lao Langzhong's house with the prey that had been processed, and divided the things equally between Lizheng and Langzhong. And Tori was helping him keep an eye out for someone to find a set of furniture, and in a blink of an eye, he went up the mountain again.

He learned a lesson and no longer uses abilities to capture prey.

When you catch an unharmed prey, you can deceive it once or twice, and three times it's like fooling people into fools.

Lu Ciyu originally wanted to take advantage of his spare time to sort out the materials in the space. Usually, he tried to pack them away, only to realize how terrifying the quantity was when he was packing. Let alone himself, it is not a problem to use these things for generations to come.

He worked hard for a while, and realized that this is not a problem that can be solved in a day or two, so he just piled it aside and ignored it.

Not only daily necessities and various food seeds, but also weapons and ammunition in space.

From guns/weapons down to machetes, relying on his special abilities, Lu Ciyu ran to a lot of severely dangerous areas, and he has almost everything in the apocalypse.

He decided for a long time, and finally chose a short bow and a light crossbow.

Excluding the physical strengthening advantage brought by supernatural powers, Lu Ciyu is a little stronger than ordinary people in this era. He had already made up his mind that he would not use hot weapons such as firearms if there were no danger to his life. Tang Daowu/Science/Knife and Machete... It's okay to chop down big prey, just catch chickens and rabbits.

The bows and crossbows he chose were both compact and easy to carry, with ordinary and low-key shapes. They were received from a special souvenir shop next to a railway station.

Different from the modern and popular composite bows, this short bow mostly uses wooden bows and animal tendons. The brand of the bow is marked with a retro label, and the modern materials are hidden very well. There is no sense of disobedience in such a dynasty.

That's not the case with the crossbow. Although it was purely wooden, Lu Ciyu kept it in a place where it was easy to reach.

Lu Ciyu remembered that the crossbow was an important combat weapon in ancient times and was under the control of the imperial court. Many hunters in the mountains use bows and arrows to hunt, but few of them carry crossbows/arrows, and it is very strange that such a poor young master would have such a thing.

Short bows are mainly used in melee combat and hunting. Perhaps because they are only positioned as souvenirs by merchants when they are produced, the material of the bow's radian string is not very good, and the practicability is also extremely poor. That's why Lu Ciyu has the ability to detect the prey and use the range and strength of this short bow to capture the prey.

He tried to shoot a few arrows, and gradually recovered some feeling, and he also caught a lot in the past few hours.

I have to mention here that it is indeed an original ecology. The mountains are full of wild animals in the forest, and you can see a few every once in a while. There are also a few hunters in the village, but the rabbits and pheasants are all grouped together, and the speed of their hunting is far from keeping up with the speed of reproduction.

Li Zheng said that there are some large and dangerous animals in the mountains. Lu Ciyu has only been here for a few days and has not been to the deep mountains, so he has not seen them yet.

He looked at the sky, threw the prey into the basket behind him, walked in, picked some herbs, and turned to go down the mountain.

Almost every household in the village knew that there was someone like him. Lu Ciyu walked back with a big basket on his back, and the villagers who greeted him would politely reply a few words. He still can't tell who is who and who is related to each other, but he has already remembered the face and shape of each other.

The old man's house is at the foot of the mountain, and Lu Ciyu could have gone up the mountain directly from the north of the village, but a wild boar came down from there many years ago, causing harm to many people. Li Zheng later called the villagers to block all the mountain roads at that end, also to ensure the safety of the residents at the foot of the mountain. Now Lu Ciyu can only stay close to the distance and pass through more than half of the village every day, and it is difficult for others to know him or not.

In the last days, Lu, who lived alone for a few months and lived alone for half a month, was still a little unaccustomed to communication. Lu. Temporary social barriers. Ci Yu smiled stiffly.

It may be for the convenience of patients who do not know when to appear, the door of the old man's house is rarely closed. Lu Ciyu entered the courtyard and poured out the harvest from the basket and handled it with ease.

Wild things were piled up on the side, herbs were sorted by category, and when he was about to enter the house to see Lin Chi, the old man and Li Zheng entered the courtyard together talking and laughing.

"Boy Lu is here." He saw the piles of things at a glance: "Didn't you say you don't want to take any more, the consultation fee has already been paid, take it back and take it back."

Lu Ciyu scratched her head and smiled: "It's all It's easy to hit, and you don't have the capital, so you can accept it." The

old man turned around and didn't look at him.

Lu Ciyu hurriedly gave Li Zheng a wink and wanted him to help persuade the old man.

Unexpectedly, Li Zheng also frowned and disagreed: "Uncle Lin is right, these can be exchanged for a few hundred pennies in the town.

" If you have no land and no relatives, you are helpless here. If you don't save some money, how will you marry a wife in the future."

Lu Ciyu didn't care much, and asked instead, "Uncle Lizheng thinks that Ciyu can't get a wife. ?"

Li was expressionless and did not speak.

Lu Ciyu's conditions are really excellent. In the past few days, many people have come to his house, and they are inquiring about Lu Ciyu. Although Huiniang blocked them back, she still seemed unwilling to give up.

He has no parents or elder brothers, the girl will not be scolded by his concubine after marrying, and he was born in the city. Even if you don't look at these two points, the three words "literary" alone can make this group of people break their heads.

Can read and write. After this marriage, everyone in the family will not have to worry about not being able to pay for their children to go to school in the town. How much money can be saved?

As for Lu Ciyu himself... it would be best if he had money in his hand. After all, he was once a young master, and the golden body he has cultivated for decades has eaten up the hardships of the farm family. Maybe one day he will go to the tooth bank to buy a few servants and come back to be his master, then his daughter will become a wife in an instant. .

If he's empty-handed and penniless...that's fine. Lu Ciyu had no support here. He didn't know grain and farming, so after getting married, he could only rely on the Yue family to survive. Which girl in the village does not have several brothers, brothers, uncles and uncles? If Lu Ciyu dared to be disobedient, he would call directly at the door. He didn't even have anyone who could support the scene.

In short, no matter what you say, your family will not suffer.

Lizheng and Lao Langzhong also saw this before, but they didn't think about getting any benefits from Lu Ciyu, they just hoped that if he really married Lin Chi, he would be able to care about his identity and the child. quite a few points.

If he can save more money, he will be more confident in the future.

Lu Ciyu understands what they mean, but he really doesn't miss these dozens of articles, not to mention that he has spent the past few days eating at Lao Langzhong or Lizheng's house.

Lu Ciyu took a few steps forward and grabbed the arms of Li Zheng and Lao Lang Zhong: "Who said that Ciyu is helpless, isn't it because of Uncle Li Zheng and Grandpa Lin."

Li Zheng took a step back and covered his heart. God, he is obviously a man of six or seven feet tall, and he can't even stand his age when he acts so coquettishly.

It looks amazing.

The old man snorted coldly and turned to enter the house.

Lu Ciyu had already figured out his character for a long time. Knowing that he was acquiescing, he couldn't help showing a big smile.

Li Zheng wanted to laugh when he saw his appearance, the corners of his lips were just raised, and he was forced to press them down again. Maintaining his final image with a cold face, he said stiffly, "How did you get the clothes?"

Lu Ciyu didn't know why, so he looked down and saw a long slit on the cuff, which was probably due to being killed while on the mountain. The branches were torn.

Lu Ciyu's face was in disbelief.

He has a lot of clothes, but these are the only ones he can wear here, and he reimbursed another one in a blink of an eye... He can't go to the city to buy new ones before the household registration is completed, what should I do if I don't have anything to wear

... Sighing. I know that this young man can't mend clothes himself, and that's right, which man understands this.

"Isn't Brother Chi in the house, let him make it up for you."

Lu Ciyu looked at him with a bewildered expression--isn't this a taboo?

Li Zheng held his forehead and sighed, pretending to fight: "If you want to go, you can go, what's with all the nonsense."

Lu Ciyu hurriedly avoided, and after a few nagging words, he entered the room.

Li Zheng sighed behind him, how could this child not be enlightened.

Lu Ciyu entered the room, and Lin Chi was cleaning the table when she was shocked when someone suddenly came in.

The cloth on his head has been removed, and a thin scab has formed on the wound on his head, which is extremely unsightly.

Lin Chi was a restless character. He was forced to lie down on the bed for a few days, and when he turned around, he wanted to get out of bed. Just as Lu Ciyu couldn't bear to eat and drink in Lizheng and Lin Langzhong's house, Lin Chi couldn't bear such a life.

Lu Ciyu could go up the mountain to pick some herbs and hunt some prey, so he would do some housework cleaning for the old man at home.

Lu Ciyu took the rag in his hand, wiped it quickly, and then asked someone to sit on the stool, hesitating for a moment before asking.

He pointed to the long strip on the cuff, and added, "Just sew it."

Lin Chi knew there was nothing he could do.

It's not a close-fitting clothing, so how can there be so many claims. What's more, the two of them are innocent and frank, and naturally fearless.

Lu Ciyu went into another room to change clothes, handed the clothes to Lin Chi and went out to help. He soiled his coat a few days ago, and he couldn't wash it himself, so he simply put it here to wash, and when it dried, he forgot to take it back, but it happened to be replaced today.

He was busy outside for a long time, and the old man couldn't untie the ropes that tied things, so he simply let him go into the house and get scissors to cut. Lu Ciyu nodded and said yes, and was stunned in place as soon as he showed up.

The warm rays of the setting sun in summer staggered along the half-opened lattice windows, and the whole room was illuminated warmly. The young man in front of him lowered his head and focused his eyes. He carefully repaired the clothes in his hands. The needles and threads dexterously shuttled through the fabric.

Time seemed to stand still for a moment.

The so-called time is quiet, but that's it.

Lin Chi noticed that there was someone there, looked up and saw Lu Ciyu standing there without thinking too much: "What's wrong?"

Lu Ciyu came back to his senses: "Grandpa Lin asked me to take off the scissors..." .

Lin Chi nodded and handed over the scissors by his side. During the movement, he turned the sharp pointed ends of the scissors to face him, and the handle to Lu Ciyu.

Lu Ciyu put everything in his eyes.

He suddenly remembered a sentence he had seen before, saying that small things and subtleties can best reflect a person's quality and heart.

He didn't know what was wrong, and he blurted out a sentence without thinking:

"Would you like to have a try with me?"
