Gu Qing was a little embarrassed.

He found that he had inadvertently created some misunderstandings, and yesterday Ding Erlang called his father purely after the fight in his previous life.

The so-called "success and defeat", the winner asks a "convincing" is a process that must be taken, the vast majority of the losers are very aware of current affairs, say a word "convincing", and then the two sides die down, of course, there are also stubborn tempers to say "dissatisfied", it doesn't matter, another 300 rounds of battle is, until one of the parties says "convincing".

In the rules of the game in the orphanage in the previous life, violence can solve most of the problems, because there is no father and mother to discipline, the orphans themselves have formulated all the processes after violence, singing "conquest" and calling "dad" are the two items that must be taken in the process.

Later, when he grew up, he left the orphanage to study and work, and there was not much chance to use violent means, Gu Qing had almost forgotten his fighting skills, and it was not until he was chased and beaten by Ding Erlang yesterday that the skills were lit up again.

The winner is the father, the loser is the son, it is a matter of course. So after beating Ding Erlang, Gu Qing subconsciously brought this rule to this life.

It's just that Gu Qing didn't expect Song Gensheng to be so knowledgeable about current affairs, and his sudden father made Gu Qing a little at a loss.

I treat you as a brother, but you plan to send me to the end......

After Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, he immediately showed a fatherly smile at Song Gensheng and nodded to show that he had received his sincerity.

If you don't explain it, you will misunderstand it, and it's too tiring to explain.

At dusk, Song Gensheng looked at the sky and said goodbye to Gu Qing and went home.

Looking at Song Gensheng's thin and thin back, Gu Qing couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart.

After beating Ding Erlang yesterday, the teenagers of the same age in the whole village were afraid of him like a tiger, looking at him with frightened eyes from afar, only Song Gensheng took the initiative to help him home without hesitation, and fetched water to wash his wounds.

Gu Qing knew that his predecessor must have a very close relationship with this Song Gensheng, maybe he was his only friend in the village.

Try to treat him well in the future, that dad can't be called in vain.

Inexplicably, Gu Qing suddenly felt that he had a responsibility on his shoulders, and he couldn't tell the truth, maybe it was father's love.

The strange thing is that the Ding brothers have also been called, but Gu Qing doesn't want to be responsible for them at all, just like a scumbag.

When his stomach was so hungry that he felt a faint pain, Gu Qing realized that he should cook.

has no father or mother, lives alone in a humble house, and has to do everything by himself.

Gu Qing opened the small jar where rice was stored at home, and then began to worry.

There is grain at home, about one liter of millet and rice, but the long-term sense of distress tells Gu Qing that this grain will not last long, it is only August now, and it is still early before the autumn harvest, and the food stored at home is probably not enough for a month, that is to say, the food crisis is imminent.

What's even more excessive is that there are no dishes at home except for that little millet at home.

So, did the people of the Tang Dynasty eat for the real thing? Nothing but rice?

didn't quite understand the rules of the Tang Dynasty, and Gu Qing felt very uncomfortable. In his previous life, he was depressed, at least a small plate of pickles was served, but he didn't expect to be hit to the bottom by fate in this life.

Standing in front of the house, Gu Qing paced back and forth, hesitating.

I really want to go to the neighbor's house to visit the door, and after a nonsense greeting, I will make it clear that my family is eating rice today, who will borrow some meat?

The feasibility of doing this is still very high, after all, he is just a little shameless to hold the new village tyrant hostage. The name of the village tyrant is LOW enough, you can't really grab the eggs in the villagers' baskets, right?

It was already dark, and Gu Qing felt that it was difficult for him to eat meat today, so he could only think of a way tomorrow.

Carefully take out a small handful of millet rice, wash it and fill it with water in the only broken clay pot at home, there is a lot of dry firewood on the stove, and the most important thing in the mountain village is firewood.

After the rice was cooked, Gu Qing looked at the small bowl of steaming rice in front of him and sighed faintly.

How to eat this meal? It's just a matter of no food, even a small bowl of rice, no wonder his body is thin and dry, if he met a bully like Ding Erlang in his previous life, he only needed two punches to make him kneel on the ground and pinch Ding Erlang's people to beg him not to die, in this life, he not only injured himself, but also made Ding Erlang jump back alive, and dared to call a helper to take revenge the next day.

This is the difference in physique.

Gu Qing decided to do something for his physical fitness from tomorrow, now he has nothing, and his only capital is his body.

In the days when all entertainment and nightlife are cut off, and even survival is in danger, what motivation can sustain him to continue to live?

A heart that wants to eat meat, of course.

…………

The reason why a mountain village is called a mountain village is that there are naturally mountains and villages.

Early the next morning, Gu Qing climbed an unnamed low mountain next to the village, dug a pit under a locust tree on the mountainside, and kept digging pits.

Song Gensheng stood behind him, his expression complicated, and he stopped talking.

Gu Qing immersed himself in work, digging a pit with a radius of one foot with his bare hands in a relatively flat area of weeds, and the bottom of the pit was arranged with sharpened wooden branches as always, and then carefully camouflaged.

Looking at the perfect pit in front of him, Song Gensheng said cautiously: "You...... Seems to be pretty good at digging holes? ”

Gu Qing didn't raise his head and said: "I'm also good at carrying coffins, burying people, and arranging mourning halls, in short, I'm versatile, your father didn't scream in vain." ”

"Yes." Song Gensheng immediately became respectful, and instantly entered the play into the mysterious and high-end ceremony.

Gu Qing glanced at him curiously: "Were you so afraid of me before?" ”

Song Gensheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I wasn't afraid before, but now I'm afraid." ”

"Afraid I'll beat you? Like a rat beater? ”

The young man was a little bloody after all, Song Gensheng suddenly wanted to deny it, and then showed an expression of "I'm not afraid of you" or "I'm very scared", but after seeing Gu Qing's face that couldn't see emotions, Song Gensheng still said very uncompetitively: "Yes." …… I'm not going to you off. ”

It's so well-behaved that it makes people feel distressed.

Gu Qing smiled: "I won't beat you either." ”

Song Gensheng breathed a sigh of relief, the anxiety he had felt when facing Gu Qing in the past two days was finally relieved a little, and while he was a little bolder, he also talked a little more.

"Can I ask...... What are you digging again? ”

Gu Qing sighed: "Be a trap, I'm waiting for some unlucky little animal to step on the air, little rabbit, little deer, little bear, little chicken...... Ahem, any animal will do. ”

Song Gensheng suddenly said: "It turns out that you want to hunt." ”

After hesitating for a moment, Song Gensheng said again: "But this pit you dug ...... It's too shallow, and the walls of the cave are not smooth, so even if a prey falls into it, it will escape quickly. ”

Gu Qing's face stiffened, he was good at digging pits, but hunting ...... I'm really not good at it, and I haven't done it in two lifetimes.

"Are the prey here so smart? The pit I dug in front of my house yesterday was fooled by even people, so can't I trap my prey? ”

Song Gensheng explained: "That's because the Ding brothers didn't notice, they didn't expect you to be so ......."

"So despicable?"

"No, so witty." Song Geunsheng is obviously a very good chatter.

Gu Qing looked at the unsuccessful pit in front of him, his heart was full of frustration, and then ...... For some reason, I was stunned again.

Song Gensheng didn't speak, and the two kept an eerie quiet.

After a long time, Gu Qing muttered to himself: "The prey is not fooled, but the people are fooled, that is to say, the Ding brothers are not even as good as animals?" ”

Song Gensheng was stunned, and then said with a wry smile: "You...... It's so sharp, it's really different from before. ”

Gu Qing was taken aback: "Did I speak just now?" ”

Song Gensheng gave him a positive look. Gu Qing was suddenly a little confused, why did he unconsciously say what was in his heart when he was in a daze? I remember that I didn't have this problem in my previous life, but my soul hasn't adapted to my current body?

Gu Qing sighed, buried his head in pulling out the upside-down wooden branches in the pit, and continued to dig deep into the pit.

"Why is it so hard to eat meat?" Gu Qing sighed gloomily.

Song Gensheng said: "There is a valley behind the village, there is a stone pond there, it is the season for fish and shrimp to be strong, why not go there and try it?" ”

Gu Qing glanced at him appreciatively, and realized more and more that Song Gensheng was a very good friend, if the word "friend" could be upgraded like a game, in his heart, Song Gensheng had been quietly upgraded from a stranger to a fox friend and dog friend, there was still a gap between him and his real friend, and he worked hard to accumulate experience points, and he could probably be promoted to another level before the end of the year.

"Just stop and go, this pit still has to be dug, and you can't give up halfway." Gu Qing buried himself in digging the pit and dug it very seriously.

Song Gensheng also stepped forward to help, and the two dug together for a long time, and they dug to a depth of about three feet before stopping.

They had to stop because they had dug something different.

Gu Qing raised his hands, his hands were pitch black, and he said in surprise: "What is this?" ”

Song Gensheng glanced at it and looked quite indifferent: "Graphite, also called coal, in the early years, I heard the old people in the village say that there is graphite near Qingcheng Mountain, but it is not very useful. ”

Gu Qing stared at the pitch-black hand with a strange expression, and said slowly, "Have you ever read a book?" ”

Song Gensheng looked proud: "My grandfather taught me some when he was alive, and he was the only one in the village who had ever read a book. ”

"Have I ever read a book?"

"Of course you haven't read it, only my grandfather and I have read books in the village, and my father has never read it, and he said that he is not a reading material."

Gu Qing's tone became slower and slower, pointing to the black thing in the middle of the pit, and said word by word: "I don't read much, don't lie to me." You call this thing 'graphite'? Isn't it called 'coal'? ”
