PS: There is one more chapter, try to do it before ten o'clock
"Dalang, are you able to get out of bed and walk?" Seeing Li Xingchen come out, the old woman in the yard next door said with a smile.
Li Xingchen was startled, Dalang? Why did he have a sense of déjà vu as Wu Dalang? But considering what people used to call him at this time, Li Xingchen had no choice. Who made Li Cheng the eldest son in his family? He nodded at the moment:
"Well, thank you for your concern, mother-in-law. It's okay."
The old woman waved her hand: "Da Lang, you don't know how worried the folks in the village are about you these days. Not to mention the few people who are familiar with you, just the girls in the village who are thinking about you. I'm afraid these days
I can’t even sleep well!”
"Mother-in-law..." Li Xingchen's face was suddenly covered with black lines. He seemed to see the burning fire of gossip in the old woman's eyes, but after all, she was an elder, and he had no way to explain it. And even if there was
The girl I like is also a romantic debt owed by the previous Li Xingchen. Things like romantic debt have always been tarnished more and more.
"Brother Chen, you are finally okay!" Several young people who were walking to the door of the house carrying hoes suddenly waved to Li Xinchen excitedly.
Relying on the memories left behind, Li Xingchen recognized the people with whom he had the best relationship. The tall one on the left was Zheng Qing, the head of the village, and the smaller one in the middle was Li Qiu who lived in the yard behind Li Xingchen's house.
The stocky person on the right, holding two hoes in succession, is Song Fei from the west of the village. These four people are also outstanding among the younger generation in the village, otherwise the clan heads of several families would not let them make friends.
After all, the relationship between the three families in the village still needs to be passed down from generation to generation, especially the future heads of these three families.
That day when Li Xingchen fell down the hillside, the three of them were the first to rush to save him. They have been coming to visit every day in the past few days, but they didn't expect to see Li Xingchen before he walked into the house today and hurriedly said hello to him.
"Brother Chen, follow us up to the mountain opposite to dig out the spring bamboo shoots. If you are lucky enough to meet a pheasant or something, you can even beat it as a tooth sacrifice!" Song Fei said with a smile, obviously impatient, "On the mountain opposite
You are the most familiar with the road, and I feel at ease having you with me to take care of my family."
Zheng Qing hurriedly pushed him. As an outstanding person of this generation of the Zheng family, he made a marriage contract with Li Lian'er of the Li Cheng family when he was young. However, the two were still young and there was no rush to get married at home.
, Normally when Li Lian'er saw this rough-and-tumble future husband who always kept his mouth shut when talking, she would blush and run away.
Song Fei immediately glared at Zheng Qing: "What do you want to do!"
Zheng Qing hesitated and said: "Brother Chen, Brother Chen has obviously not recovered yet. You are so anxious to ask Brother Chen to help. Don't you want to harm him? Logically speaking, we should catch a pheasant to stew.
Give it to Brother Chen to eat!"
Li Qiu and Song Fei looked at each other and burst into laughter, while Zheng Qing scratched his head without knowing what was going on. Li Qiu patted his shoulder, looked at Li Xingchen who looked confused, and teased: "Old Zheng, old man
Zheng, you are really thinking about your brother-in-law even though you have never married your own wife. You are living your life too far ahead of your time!"
"Li, please, what are you talking about?" Li Lian'er, who had been hiding behind the door and eavesdropping for some time, jumped out immediately, picked up the pole next to her and was about to hit someone, but her slender arms and wrists couldn't lift it at all.
When she got up from the pole, Juanxiu's little face turned red.
Li Xingchen helplessly grabbed the pole that was flying around but had no strength: "Okay, Lian'er, these little bastards are just messing around with you, why should you take it to heart!"
"Brother, you're not even facing me!" Li Lian'er stamped her feet and seemed to run back.
A group of old men were left looking at each other and couldn't help laughing.
On the topic of women, a group of big men seem to always be able to find common ground.
Li Xingchen clapped his hands: "Okay, don't make trouble anymore. I've been lying in bed for so many days and I'm almost getting sick from lying down. Why don't I follow you for a walk and stretch my muscles and bones."
Seeing the expressions of surprise on the faces of Song Fei and others, Li Xingchen raised his eyebrows: "But we have agreed that I can only walk now, so leading the way, I am only responsible for guiding the direction. The key thing is
You may have to give me a hand when the time comes."
"Okay!" Li Qiu immediately shook his wrists and ankles, "As long as Brother Chen gives your orders, the three brothers will be your sedan bearers, carrying you like the county magistrate Qing Tian, and we will do whatever makes you feel comfortable.
Everyone goes up and down the mountain."
For this clan brother who was similar to the Mountain Monkey, Li Xingchen could only shake his head helplessly, while Zheng Qing and Song Fei nodded in unison, obviously they also agreed with Li Qiu's idea.
In fact, as a standard otaku of later generations, Li Xingchen didn't have much interest in sports, let alone crawling around in the deep mountains and old forests without steps. But he knew that he had no choice. As the obvious next leader of the whole village
The leader, if he wants to save even the people of this village in troubled times, he must understand what the surrounding environment is like.
Now we can see the boundless mountains, but even in these mountains, there are all kinds of dangers hidden. Not to mention the unknown ones, just the recent rise of the bandit two hills away has made the village
People have been frightened until now, but they have never been able to think of a way to get rid of it quickly.
Li Xingchen was packing up his hoes, machetes and other tools. Although Li Cheng was old and the patriarch of the clan, he rarely cared about these strenuous farm work, but Li Xingchen was a diligent and promising young man before, so the machete used to open roads at home,
The hoes used for digging bamboo shoots are all polished to a sharp point, and looking at Seinfeld and the others, they are almost the same guy.
It can be guessed that the village is almost full of such tools, and they are more interested in opening roads and farming, rather than... killing people.
Subconsciously turning his attention to the bamboo forest, Li Xingchen already had a certain idea in his mind. When he couldn't use anything at hand, the outside world was the only option, and most of the time, the bamboo forest was a good hiding and ambush place.
Li Xingchen has no intention of harming others, but it does not mean that he has no intention of guarding against others.
In this game of life and death, which is more like survival in the apocalypse than time travel, as the future leader of the village, he must consider how he can survive with so many people in the smoke billowing down the mountain.
Even if you cannot save the lives of a whole village, you must at least save your own life.
"I'm just a hard-working loser." Li Xingchen put the basket on his back and turned his back to Seinfeld and the others, "with tears streaming down his face."
"Brother Chen, what did you say?" Li Qiu, who had the sharpest ears, shouted loudly.
"I said that if you don't move for three days, the hoe feels heavy!" Li Xingchen also answered in a loud voice, "It's time to find someone to try to see if it's sharp or not!"
Li Qiu immediately stuck out his tongue, not daring to say anything more. Li Xingchen always had a character that meant what he said, and Li Qiu didn't want the hoe to fall on his neck.
