This was the first time that everyone saw so much food. They not only searched for the food in their own homes, but also found out the food stored by those who left.Everyone doesn't have many things at home, just a few mushrooms, or a few wild vegetables, and occasionally one or two yams or yams is considered good.However, it still formed a small slope when it was piled up.
We caught another ten chickens, and now they have more than 30 people together. These chickens and all kinds of wild vegetables are enough.
Mushroom soup, roasted pheasant, wild vegetable stew, yam soup, hawthorn juice, this is the most sumptuous meal they have ever eaten.Everyone's heart is full of yearning for a new life, and the initial numbness and indifference have disappeared from their faces.Occasionally, one or two are still uneasy, afraid that the dream will be broken after the sudden appearance.However, under the infection of the joyful atmosphere, they finally showed long-lost smiles.
Li Hanlin, Big Eye, Xiong Wa and Hong Mu formed a small circle, tearing up the chicken to their heart's content, drinking the thick soup, talking and laughing, having a good time.Hei Yan was bundled into a ball and thrown aside. He hadn't had a serious meal for a month. Looking at Li Hanlin's satisfied face, he felt that he must have done it on purpose.
Li Hanlin's intention to be greedy for Hei Yan is true, but this expression is really not fake.Whether in the hospital or at home, he was forced to only eat porridge, and he was repeatedly told to come here to avoid food before going to bed.This was the first time he ate meat in a month, and he was almost moved to tears.
Hei Yan moved his body and kicked Li Hanlin's wheelchair. Li Hanlin was caught off guard, his body swayed with the wheelchair, and the mushroom skewer in his hand fell to the ground with a "crack".
"Here's a chicken leg." General Heiyan didn't have the slightest sense of being a prisoner.
Li Hanlin glared and moved the wheelchair away.
Heiyan saw him slowly tearing off a big chicken leg from a roasted golden and crispy fat chicken, and slowly put it to his mouth, biting down with happiness on his face, he felt so angry that he really wanted to push him to the ground Beat hard.
"Aren't your boys going to join the army?" Heiyan said in a low voice.
Li Hanlin glanced at him lightly, then turned his head and continued to eat chicken legs.Heart said, none of your business.
There seemed to be fire in Heiyan's eyes: "Then do you know that I am the chief instructor?"
Li Hanlin's expression froze, he straightened his body, and looked straight at Hei Yan, the other's expression did not seem to be lying.He originally thought that Heiyan might be an official like captain or squad leader, but he didn't expect such a high official rank.
"Then..." Li Hanlin still had doubts, "Why did the white-robed old man treat you as nothing?"
Heiyan didn't even look at him, with a "believe it or not" expression on his face.Seeing him like this, Li Hanlin really wanted to kick him to the ground!
No, Li Hanlin held back.It is related to the lifelong happiness of the three children, so we need to be cautious.
Thinking about how this person might torture Big Eye and them, Li Hanlin felt uneasy in every possible way.He made up his mind, put the chicken leg in his hand to Heiyan's mouth, and said: "I will provide you with delicious food and drink, so don't use any tricks then."
"Change to another one." Heiyan frowned as he looked at the chicken leg with teeth marks in front of him.
Li Hanlin is as good as others.After a whole chicken, three bowls of mushroom soup, a dozen skewers of wild vegetables, and a bowl of Chinese yam soup all entered Hei Yan's stomach, Li Hanlin finally had time to eat his own.
"Eat everything, don't count on it." Li Hanlin said viciously.
Hei Yan didn't intend to answer his words, raised his chin, and said: "Then what kind of hawthorn juice, have some, I'm thirsty."
"You want to renege, don't you?!" Li Hanlin had the tendency to become a shrew in a second.
"It's not me who will be in charge of the selection at that time. They look like they have been hungry for eight lifetimes. Let's talk about it when they can come in."
"What are you in charge of?"
"train."
Li Hanlin: "..."
+ + + + +
It took Li Hanlin three days but failed to persuade the three bastards to give up their idea of joining the army.After he vividly portrayed the ferocious image of Heiyan snake and scorpion, the three children became more frustrated and courageous.Despite a fleeting moment of fear, they didn't want to give up on the decision.
On the third day, they finally set off.
On the evening of the fifth day, they saw the first village.This place is probably on the outskirts of the city, and the news is not well informed, and the matter of the beast has not yet reached here.So when Li Hanlin came out with those large beasts, the villagers here were so shocked that their eyeballs would pop out, and those who were still able to run hurriedly hid, and those who were already too scared to move simply closed their eyes and waited for death.The children were already crying loudly, and some of the elderly passed out directly.The scene was chaotic.
Li Hanlin had no choice but to let them restore the prototype - woodcarving.After all, the further you go, the denser the population, and there will be no shortage of these situations.
On the seventh day, they met the contact person at the first outpost, who was the guard.The guard's name is Baofu, he is a middle-aged man in his 50s and [-]s, he looks quite simple and honest, a little fat, but he can't be called fat, and his small eyes reveal a shrewdness that doesn't match his appearance.Li Hanlin roughly guessed from the performance of the other party when they met for the first time that this is a guy who is showing off his power by relying on his master.But at this time, his attitude towards him was quite pleasant, and he respectfully invited himself into the city.Presumably the old man in white robe told him something.
Hei Yan left without even saying hello, and Li Hanlin didn't even see him when he realized it.Li Hanlin didn't care either, anyway, he was not from the same way.Li Hanlin is not comfortable being with people who want to kill him and want to kill him all day long.It's good to go, so as not to be an eyesore.
After actually entering the city, Li Hanlin realized that its level of development was quite different from what he had imagined.Houses, shops, military bases, etc. are planned in an orderly manner, the roads are wide and straight, and pedestrians come and go.Occasionally, people in specific clothes patrol the streets, as if they are staff maintaining law and order.
It seems to be a well-developed city, Li Hanlin thought to himself.
The group of them tried to keep a low profile, but with so many people acting together, it still attracted the attention of passers-by.Especially among them, except for Li Hanlin and the guards who were neatly dressed, the rest of them were dressed in tatters, which was quite a bit of a beggar gang.
The eyes of those behind him were already filled with tears. They had bid farewell to Glory City for so many years and lost their dignity in the face of hunger and all kinds of pain and cold.After going around and around, they came back here again, but they had already changed.
The big-eyed three didn't have as many emotions as they did, and they didn't have everything in front of them in their memory.Hongmu still has some vague impressions, but she was young at the time, and her perception of the outside world was not deep, and these scenes did not bring her many different feelings.
For them at this time, everything they saw and heard was novel.The stone and brick houses lined up, the flat bluestone roads, the dazzling shops... everything can make them exclaim.They are like newborns exposed to the outside world for the first time, they can applaud almost everything.
Li Hanlin felt distressed and touched a few children who couldn't move, and coaxed: "I will bring you to play some other day."
Along the way, Li Hanlin heard a lot of people discussing about the mythical beasts, and there were all kinds of shocking versions, which made his eyes drop.There are also people who are talking about master sculptors, how they all come from fantasy, one is unreliable than the other.After listening all the way, Li Hanlin felt that the imagination of the working people is endless.
