Chapter 10 Li Ergou and Erniu
Xu Lingshan only felt that his worldview had been seriously impacted, this was completely Wang Ye's kind of inspirational method, and some people really believed it.
It doesn't matter if others believe it or not, he won't believe it anyway!
Although this method is still too far from Wang Ye, Bai Ye can learn it in just two nights, which makes him have to admire.
"Ye Zi, you can say that they have lost their minds so much, why don't you order more, I believe that if you offer 500, they will grit their teeth and there will still be many people who agree. ”
"That's too much, and then they'll run out of water to drink, and they'll die of thirst. Bai Ye shook his head and asked, "If a group of people are going to die of thirst, but know that you have a lot of water here, what will they do?"
Xu Lingshan was instantly shocked into a cold sweat, the result of this kind of careful thinking was something he didn't expect, if he was too greedy and forced others to a dead end, it would be equivalent to forcing himself into a dead end.
Bai Ye left them half an hour to calm them down, but he couldn't calm them down to the point that even the slightest hope of getting more water was extinguished.
Half an hour was fast, and the two of them picked a few large leaves on the side of the road and returned home, and when they arrived at the fence, the time had passed.
At this moment, the old man and Green Leaf were already standing outside the fence and waiting, the fence could not be locked when they went out, but they did not go in, and Green Leaf was still holding the kettle they gave yesterday in his hand.
"Big brother!" Seeing the two approaching, Green Leaf happily ran over and handed the kettle in his hand to Bai Ye: "Ah, this is my tuition, more than others!"
Bai Ye looked at the water in the child's hand, and then looked at the old man: "Actually, you don't have to be like this, I didn't plan to collect your water when I took the initiative to call you here." ”
The old man shook his head: "This is not my attention, this kid has a strong personality, I can't resist him." ”
Looking at the bottle of water, the old man was still reluctant, but he respected his grandson's opinion.
"By the way, what about his parents?" asked Xu Lingshan, pushing his glasses.
"Hey, I went out to look for water four years ago, and I never came back......" The old man's eyes were lost, and muddy tears crossed his furrow-like cheeks: "At that time, the child had just learned to walk, hey...... Don't talk about it......"
The old man's sigh reminded Bai Ye of his childhood, he felt that he was very lucky, if he was the age of Green Leaf, he would definitely not be able to survive.
Thanks to the old man's scavenging to pull the child to the present, he can eat a mouthful of food every day, although he is turned out of the garbage heap, but at least he survives.
"Ling Shan, you go and cut two pieces of meat on it and divide it, training on a hungry stomach has no effect. ”
When Luye heard that there was meat to eat, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and the old man hurriedly waved his hand: "Then how can it be done, sending us water is already a great favor, and now we have to give it food." ”
Bai Ye shook his head: "If you can't eat enough, training will have no effect, and if there is no effect, it will be equivalent to smashing my signboard, and I still rely on this to eat!"
After a quick meal for the four of them, Xu Lingshan put down the small table from the tree, and the old man was not idle, cleaning up on the side, although the ground was full of loess, he still used the dead branches picked up by the roadside to make a simple broom, and swept away all the ashes on it.
However, Bai Ye and Green Leaf fell idle, the two of them sat under the tree, one big and one small, and Green Ye's pair of smart and moist eyes looked at his watch curiously: "Brother Bai Ye, what is this?"
"It's called a watch. ”
"It turns out that this is the legendary watch, so can it read the time, what time is it?"
White leaves: ......
Fortunately, at this time, a running footstep came out of the fence and relieved him: "Bai Ye, Bai Ye!
Immediately after that, two people ran into the gate, it was Li Ergou and Erniu, both of whom were dark-skinned, but both were relatively strong.
Li Ergou waved the water bottle in his hand, which contained more than half a bottle of water, and carried a large bow of nearly two meters on his back, the ancient red bow body was full of quaint atmosphere, and there was an arrow basket full of arrows.
Erniu's equipment is similar to him, but the bow is too far behind, and it looks like he has found a slightly elastic wooden stick to make it.
"Yes, it's pretty professional. For the first time, Bai Ye had a different view of the two of them, he looked at the ancient red bow, and at the same time rushed out of the opponent's arrow basket with an arrow, and even the production of arrows was very particular.
There are not only arrow feathers made of feathers, but also arrowheads made of nails, which are professional at first glance, no wonder they can shoot the three rings.
"My family has been hunters for generations, and this bow was handed down by my grandfather. Li Ergou has a special affection for this bow, and he is also very proud when he talks about it: "But I found that my grandfather and my father lied to me, they said that they often took this bow to the wild to hunt rabbits, and when I went, I found that the rabbits were not as weak as they said, and they bit people when they were in a hurry!"
Bai Ye felt very strange, according to Li Ergou's statement, he should be an old hunter, and his shooting skills must be stronger than him, but why did he only shoot three rings?
"When did you know that wild rabbits are big?"
"The year before last, my dad went hunting with my grandfather, but only came back, and he was seriously injured at that time, and he warned me not to go to the wild, rabbit meat is not delicious at all. ”
Speaking of this, Li Ergou's eyes were a little sad: "My dad was also seriously injured because of that time, and he was gone after lying at home for a few days......"
"So you haven't been to the wild before?"
Li Ergou shook his head: "Originally, I was going to go that day, but my family has a rule that you can't go hunting before you are 13 years old." ”
A trace of pity flashed in Bai Ye's eyes, he finally understood why Li Ergou's archery skills were so bad, and his feelings were all caused by doting.
When he was five years old, he and Xu Lingshan went to the wild to take care of food, and Li Ergou was twelve years old and still living in the pitiful 'deception' of his elders.
The second cow on the side was very silent, and Bai Ye asked again: "What about the second cow, his ancestor is also an orion?"
"No, he is my brother, we have grown up together over the years, and we have all been blessed and shared with hardships. Li Ergou hooked Erniu's shoulder very heartily, and Erniu squeezed out a smile.
Xu Lingshan, who had been fiddling with the table next to him, pushed his glasses at this moment: "What about his water? I remember that he didn't get water last time." ”
Li Ergou shook the water bottle in his hand very heartily: "His water is wrapped in me!"
"Then does he usually go hunting?"
At this moment, Er Niu shook his head embarrassedly: "My shooting skills are too poor, and I have survived until now by relying on Brother Ergou's share of meat." ”
"Oh!" Xu Lingshan nodded and stopped talking, but there was a kind of disdain in his eyes.
A man who has hands and feet, but relies on others to provide for his life, in his opinion, this kind of person is not earned.
In his memory, even if Bai Ye coughed badly, he would insist on going out to find water and food, and would not sit at home and wait for him to bring food to his mouth, he felt that this was a man.
Brothers will not hesitate to support you, but God will not pity you, one day you lose all the people you rely on, how can you live?
At this moment, Li Ergou's dissatisfied words sounded behind him: "Erniu, are you insulting me by saying this, if you are a brother, if you have a bite to eat, you will never be hungry!"
Xu Lingshan smiled disappointedly, and he found that although Bai Ye was smiling, there was a trace of coldness in his eyes when he looked at Erniu!
