It was already dark at this time, and the strong wind unique to the grassland was making a whining sound. The wooden house that had been reinforced layer by layer did not move at all.
Song Dekui picked up a piece of rabbit meat that had been fried to a crisp and put it in his mouth, took another bite of the pancake, and said with a satisfied look on his face: "I never thought that I could sit in the house on the desolate grassland and eat delicious food and drink spicy food.
Hehe, no one can think of it! We will always have a house to live in."
"Xiaoyun, you really don't feel scared on this grassland?"
Last night when we stayed at the Jiang family's nest, the Jiang family talked about how to spend the night on the grassland.
Generally speaking, people wrap themselves in woolen mattresses, choose a sheltered place, and spend a night in the open air in sub-zero temperatures.
Now that there is a wooden house, it is no longer cold, but how come Xiaoyun, a girl, behaves more calmly than him?
Song Liyun smiled faintly: "I don't know! Maybe I am destined to live on this grassland!"
She listened to the faint howling of wolves outside, and the sound of three horses eating and trampling on the ground across the wall.
In the ten years since the last days, she had spent most of her time living alone in the wilderness and ruins, and the habit had already been ingrained into her bones.
Although he eventually died among the mutant rats.
After spending a whole year of peaceful life in Ruijin Town, apart from the feeling of familiarity, there is even a little excitement of a wild resurgence.
After dinner, Song Dekui took a long knife and volunteered to take charge of the night watch, allowing Song Liyun to have a good rest.
Because he still needed to feed his horses in the middle of the night, it was said to be a night watch, so there was also a warm charcoal stove in his cabin.
At this time, potatoes were roasting on the stove and tea was heating up. He could open the door and take a nap, which was more comfortable than sleeping in a nest on the ground.
Song Liyun is still confident about the safety issue at night.
This place is only a day's journey from Shitan Fort, and it is still within the patrol range of the Zhenbei Army, so the large group of Dilu bandits did not dare to stay.
As for the wolves.
Based on her understanding of animals, generally speaking, wild beasts will not approach areas where humans are cunning and vicious.
There is still no heavy snow in the grassland, and all kinds of hares and guinea pigs are active outside. The wolves can easily fill their stomachs, and they will not attack people.
But that's only when there's no heavy snow and there's plenty of food.
Song Liyun laid a sheepskin mat on the wooden floor of the wooden house, put a quilt on it, and the rest was to sleep well.
A night of silence.
The next day, Song Liyun opened the door after a good sleep, and what she saw shocked her.
A huge, skinny horse's head stood in front of him, almost hitting Song Liyun's nose.
The old horse somehow got out of the fence and was standing at the door of his cabin, tilting his head and chewing on the copper ring on the door.
Song Liyun's sudden opening of the door obviously frightened the old horse. It suddenly backed away and ran a few steps away, turning back to look.
Song Liyun was angry and funny, Lao Ma looked at her warily, then slowly walked aside.
At this time, Song Dekui was still sleeping soundly. He kept vigil at night and didn't lie down until dawn.
As they were on their way today, Song Liyun loaded good fodder for the three horses.
She just added a drop of strengthening potion to the old horse's fodder.
When he first arrived in the Wu Dynasty, Song Liyun prepared to give the Song Zhenping brothers this kind of biological agent that could strengthen their physique and strengthen their muscles.
But as time goes by, this idea changes little by little.
After all, strengthening medicines violate the laws of natural biology.
It was at the end of the world. In order to survive in a cruel environment, one had to forcibly increase muscle strength in a short period of time, promote bone growth, and gain strong strength.
This kind of behavior of drinking poison to quench thirst and defeating the needs of others will always have to pay a price.
Then overdraw your life!
But in the last days, people can only live in the present moment, seize the day and night, and longevity has become an adjective.
It's different now. As long as you slowly regulate your body, you can live beyond your sixties and enjoy your old age.
Therefore, Song Liyun gave up the idea of forcibly increasing his strength and asked the Song brothers to improve their bodies through medicine and food.
Now the old horse's situation is different. She needs a healthy horse, not a drag that stops and goes.
Besides, the lifespan of an old horse is not long. Using a small amount of medicine to restore its strength and shortening its lifespan will only shorten the time of suffering.
By the time Song Dekui woke up and had his meal, the sky was already red and the sun was shining brightly.
The small wooden house was not dismantled. Song Liyun took the small bag and pretended to play with it, and the two rooms and the pots and stoves inside were put into the space.
There was only a bare open space left outside.
Song Dekui rode on his bay-red horse and said with a big bun in his mouth: "It's a good day today, but we have to travel a bit, so we can go back early."
Song Liyun nodded and said, "Okay! I'll be back in ten days at most."
As he spoke, he arranged the straps that bound the cartons, took out a sheepskin cushion rolled by the Tengyun Flag and placed it on his horse, and then got on his horse.
Song Dekui watched her take out the colorful flags and yelled: "Xiaoyun, you are not kind! You didn't say anything when you got the flags of the Zhenbei Army, which made me feel a little scared when I thought about going to the Di tribe.
.”
To be honest, although he wanted to gain knowledge on the grassland, he still felt unsure when he thought about dealing with the Di tribe with just two of them.
Song Liyun smiled and said: "Don't tell anyone. I asked for this from Wang Junquan. Didn't you see that it's an old one? Wang Junqiu said he would lend it to me this time and I must return it when I get back."
Song Dekui's eyes widened when he heard this: "If you want the military flag, they will give it to you?"
"What are you so anxious about? Who said this is a military flag? I heard from the military commander Wang that this is just a ceremony flag. It looks good and cannot be used to mobilize troops."
The Tengyun Flag is actually just a colorful flag used by the Zhenbei Army during certain ceremonies, and is recognized by all the guards.
Song Liyun is preparing to go out in advance.
If you meet the Zhenbei Army patrol on the grassland, there will be no misunderstanding and you can easily seek help.
Moreover, the banner of the Zhenbei Army also had the intention of suppressing these small Di tribes close to the Wu Dynasty, so that they did not dare to have bad intentions.
Song Dekui urged his horse forward and said with a smile: "With this flag here, I don't have to worry about encountering bandits."
Song Liyun didn't know yet whether the rogue bandits would be afraid.
For desperadoes, it is difficult to guess their thoughts, and there is no need to guess. The best way is to avoid them.
Thinking of this, Song Liyun took out a high-power binoculars.
She bought this at a high price in the main city during the end of the world.
You get what you pay for. Relying on this extremely precise instrument, she was able to avoid attacks from mutant beasts and humans in the apocalyptic wilderness time and time again.
This is Song Liyun's treasure, and she has never taken it out even once since arriving in the Wu Dynasty.
Standing on the unobstructed grassland and using a telescope, Song Liyun could see three wild wolves on the hillside at the end of the field of vision, lining up in a column and climbing over the top of the slope.
This distance... Song Liyun estimated that it was enough to be ten miles.
This time is enough time for you to calmly deal with all the variables ahead.
Song Dekui looked at Song Liyun putting strange things in front of his eyes, and turning around as if he was looking at something. He couldn't help but curiously asked: "Xiaoyun, is your...an immortal's magical object again?"
