Chapter 3 Neighborhoods

PS: There is still a chapter before ten o'clock

"Da Lang, is this able to get out of bed and walk?" Seeing Li Xinchen come out, the old woman in the courtyard next door suddenly smiled and said.

Li Xinchen was stunned, Da Lang? Why is there a sense of déjà vu of Wu Dalang? However, considering that people are habitually called at this time, Li Xinchen has no choice, who makes Li Cheng's family the boss himself. At that moment, he nodded: "Well, thank you for your concern, it's okay." ”

The old woman waved her hand: "Dalang, you don't know how worried the villagers are about you these days." Not to mention the few who are usually familiar with you, just the girls in the village who are worried about you, I'm afraid they won't be able to sleep well these days! ”

"Mother-in-law······ Li Xinchen's face was suddenly full of black lines, and he seemed to see the fire of gossip burning in the old woman's eyes, but after all, he was an elder, and he had no way to explain it. And even if there is a girl she likes, it is also the romantic debt owed by Li Xinchen before, and this kind of thing has always been more and more black.

"Brother Chen, you're finally fine!" Several young people who were carrying hoes to the door of the house suddenly waved at Li Xinchen excitedly,

Li Xinchen relied on the memories left behind, and recognized that those people were the ones who had the best relationship with him, the tall one on the left was Zheng Qing in the east of the village, the thinner one in the middle was Li Qiu in the courtyard behind Li Xinchen's house, and the one on the right who was short and sturdy and grabbed two hoes in a row was Seinfeld in the west of the village. These four people are also outstanding among the younger generations in the village, otherwise the patriarchs of several families would not let them befriend.

After all, the relationship between the three families in the village still needs to be passed on from generation to generation, especially the future heads of these three families.

That day, Li Xinchen fell down the hill, and it was the three of them who took the lead in rushing up to save people, and they came to visit every day in the past few days, but they didn't expect to see Li Xinchen's figure before they entered the house today, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Brother Chen, follow us up to the opposite mountain to dig out the spring bamboo shoots, if you can be lucky enough to meet a pheasant or something, you can also fight tooth sacrifices!" Seinfeld said with a smile, obviously a little impatient, "You are most familiar with the road on the opposite mountain, and you can rest assured that you are at home with you." ”

Zheng Qing hurriedly pushed him, as an outstanding person in the Zheng family's generation, he made a marriage contract with Li Li'er of Li Cheng's family when he was young, but the two were still young, and the family was not in a hurry to get married.

Seinfeld suddenly glared at Zheng Qing: "What do you want to do!" ”

Zheng Qing said hesitantly: "Brother Chen, Brother Chen obviously hasn't recovered yet, you have to hurry up and let Brother Chen contribute, don't you want to harm him!" It stands to reason that we should catch a pheasant and stew it for Brother Chen! ”

Li Qiu and Seinfeld glanced at each other and immediately laughed, while Zheng Qing scratched his head inexplicably. Li Qiu patted him on the shoulder, looked at Li Xinchen with a blank face, and teased: "Lao Zheng, Lao Zheng, you really haven't been to your own mother, so you started to think about your brother-in-law, you are too ahead of your time!" ”

"What do you want you to say?" Li Li'er, who didn't know when she started hiding behind the door and eavesdropping, suddenly jumped out, picked up the flat pole next to her and was about to hit someone, but her slender arms and wrists couldn't pick up the flat pole at all, but instead made Juanxiu's little face red.

Li Xinchen was a little helpless and grabbed the flat shoulder that was flying around but had no strength: "Okay, Li'er, a few of their little bastards are just messing around with you, why bother!" ”

"Even brother, you don't look at me!" Li Li'er stomped her feet, and Fei seemed to run back.

Leaving a group of big men looking at each other, they couldn't help but laugh.

On the topic of women, a group of big men seem to always find common ground.

Li Xinchen clapped his hands: "Okay, don't make trouble, I've been lying in bed for so many days, and I'm about to lie down with something, so it's better to follow you and move your muscles and bones." ”

Seeing that Seinfeld and the others all showed a look of surprise on their faces, Li Xinchen raised his eyebrows: "But let's talk about it, I can walk around now, so I can only guide the way in front of me or something, maybe you will have to pull me when it is critical." ”

"Gotcha!" Li Qiu suddenly shook his wrists and ankles, "As long as Brother Chen instructs, the three brothers will be the sedan chair bearers for you, and carry you with those county officials, how comfortable you are, we will go up and down the mountain." ”

For this clan brother who is similar to a mountain monkey, Li Xinchen can only shake his head helplessly, while Zheng Qing and Song Fei nodded in unison, obviously they also agree with Li Qiu's idea.

In fact, as a standard otaku in later generations, Li Xinchen is not too interested in sports, let alone drilling around in the deep mountains and old forests without steps, but he knows that he has no choice, as the next obvious head of the entire village, if he wants to save even the people of this village in the troubled times, he must understand what the surrounding environment is like.

Now there is a boundless mountain, but even in this mountain, there are all kinds of dangers. Not to mention those unknown, just the recently rising bandit outside the two mountains has made the people in the village frightened until now, but they have not been able to think of a way to get rid of it quickly.

Li Xinchen packed up his hoe, machete and other tools. Although Li is an old man and a patriarch, he rarely cares about these hard-working farm work, but Li Xinchen was a diligent and promising young man before, so the machetes used to open the road and the hoes used to dig bamboo shoots at home are sharpened, and looking at Seinfeld, they are almost the same guys.

It can be guessed that the village is almost full of such tools, which are more inclined to open roads and cultivate than ······ Homicide.

Subconsciously set his eyes on the bamboo forest, Li Xinchen already had a certain number in his heart. When you can't make use of anything at hand, the outside world is the only option, and most of the time, the bamboo forest is a good hiding place and ambush.

Li Xinchen does not have the intention of harming others, but it does not mean that he has no intention of defending others.

In this game of life and death, which is more like survival in the last days than a time travel, he, as the future head of the village, must think about how he can lead so many people to survive in the smoke billowing down the mountain.

Even if you can't save the lives of a village, you must at least save your own life.

"I'm just a miserable man." Li Xinchen carried the basket on his back and turned his back to Seinfeld, and they "burst into tears".

"Brother Chen, what did you say?" Li Qiu, who had the sharpest ears, shouted loudly.

"I said not to move for three days, I feel that this hoe is heavy!" Li Xinchen also replied with a loud voice, "It's time to find someone to try whether it's sharp or not!" ”

Li Qiu immediately stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to say more. Li Xinchen has always been a character who does what he says, and Li Qiu doesn't want the hoe to really fall on his neck.
