Chapter 32: Innate Divine Power
As soon as the day dawned, Luo Feng had already gotten up.
Cousin Qin Qiong once told him that the best way to get ahead is to immediately gain fame, and become a government soldier to gain fame, which is almost the only way out for a low-level peasant child like Luo Feng.
Luo Feng is not enthusiastic about gaining fame immediately, but he knows that the good life since the opening of the emperor has been getting worse and worse under the rule of the Son of Heaven.
In the horse pen, the white hoofed crow was chewing a bunch of fresh grass with dew, and Xiao Liu was squatting there feeding it in bunches.
It seems that the relationship between the two is excellent.
"Little Six."
"Brother, are you up?"
"You're mowing the grass early in the morning?"
Xiao Liu smiled and said, "The grass is fresh in the morning, I deliberately went to the river to cut it, you see how happy this big black food is." ”
Luo Feng originally wanted to say that this horse would be his own mount in the future, but according to his cousin Qin Qiong, this war horse must have the method of raising a war horse, not just eat grass, but also eat feed, especially concentrate. Even if you can't feed the horses eggs and peas like those cavalrymen, you must at least feed some black beans and rice bran.
The cousin also gave him a secret recipe, saying that he would get some glutinous rice and sake lees, and feed some to the horse every day, so that the horse could slowly get up.
War horses can't just eat grass.
"Little Liu, you don't have to go to Wang's house to herd cattle in the future."
"So where am I going?"
For this younger brother, Luo Feng also didn't know how to arrange it, he was only twelve years old this year, but he was already very tall, just a head shorter than him, especially his natural brute strength.
"Otherwise, you'll follow me in the future." Luo Feng thought about it, he was going to go to the county government office on an errand in a few days, so it was better to let his younger brother follow as a helper. Anyway, a positive catch is fast, and there is also a large number of helpers.
"Okay, I'll listen to the fifth brother." Xiao Liu didn't think it was so complicated.
"White Hoof, you've almost eaten too, let's go out for a yo."
Holding the black horse, Luo Feng carried the horizontal knife given to him by Qin Qiong in his waist, and on the other side hung a Hu Lu with arrows, carrying a bow bag with a bow on his back.
"Brother, why are you going?"
"Go and practice martial arts."
"Take me." Xiao Liu immediately shouted.
"Then you find a guy who can take advantage of it." Luo Feng said with a smile.
Xiao Liu looked left and right, but he didn't find a guy who took advantage of it, the wooden stick was too light, the hammer was too short, and finally he saw an object and his eyes lit up, and he directly copied it and carried it on his shoulder.
"Brother, take advantage of this thing."
Luo Feng couldn't help but shake his head, Xiao Liu was holding an iron rod that was commonly used in the blacksmith shop at home, nearly six feet long, as thick as a pigeon's egg, it was really long and heavy, this was originally used to stab the iron stove, and after using it for a long time, the outer layer of the iron rod was black and bright, and it was simply a pulp.
"Do you dance?"
"It works."
Xiao Liu said, took the iron rod off his shoulder, and turned around a few times with both hands humming and shouting, whirring and staggering.
With such an iron rod, there must be no less than ten catties, but Xiao Liu can wield it freely, and even Luo Feng can only sigh to himself with this strength.
"Okay, then you can take this and go."
One after the other, the two brothers carried sticks and hammers out of the village, until they came to the riverside beach on the edge of the South Stream.
"Dahei, you eat grass by yourself, don't run around!" Luo Feng saw that Da Hei was very honest, so he simply threw the reins and let it eat grass freely.
Up to now, Luo Feng doesn't know what knives, guns, clubs and the like, although he has a horizontal knife and a hammer, but he doesn't know the moves, but yesterday Wang Bodang taught him some archery methods, Luo Feng simply took out a bow and arrow to practice.
Xiao Liu also came to watch and learn curiously, and felt bored after watching it, so he carried his iron rod and played it himself.
However, Xiao Liu had no patience, and after waving it indiscriminately for a while, he carried the iron rod to the stream to smash the stones, and smashed the big stones in the stream hard, and the fish hiding under the rocks of the stream would be stunned and rushed out.
Luo Feng has done this with Xiao Liu before, but at that time he was all smashed with stones, but now Xiao Liu has an iron rod in his hand, which is more handy.
A person hummed haha, wielding an iron rod to play happily, a few sticks down, can always shake out one or two fish, although some fish are relatively small, but the accumulation of a lot, not long after the effort, but also let him get two or three catties of fish.
Luo Feng was very focused on practicing archery, and he recalled the methods and skills that Wang Bodang taught him yesterday, and practiced arrow after arrow.
However, after half an hour, Luo Feng already felt hot all over his body, and even his back was already sweaty with his clothes, and his arms became sore.
"Little Liu, go home."
Hearing Luo Feng's call, Xiao Liu jumped back from the stream with an iron rod, compared to Luo Feng's exhaustion and soreness, Xiao Liu smashed the stone for a long time and looked like a nobody, although the clothes on his body were half wet, but he didn't feel tired.
"Brother, you see I caught a lot of fish."
Luo Feng looked at the fish in the puddle on the beach, there are indeed a lot of large and small, at least a few catties, don't look at the different sizes of these fish, even various varieties of fish, but at first glance, they are good river fish, completely unpolluted.
It is difficult to eat such a small fish in the mountain stream in the future.
"Yes, my brother will make you fish to eat in a while."
Folded a few wicker sticks, strung the fish one by one, and then carried them on their shoulders with iron rods, and the two brothers went home together.
Not far away, the big black horse was still eating grass seriously.
Luo Feng called a few words, it turned its head to look, but it was still eating grass greedily, Luo Feng had to go over and take it up.
"Let me ride!"
Luo Feng scratched its head, the black horse stood there very tamely, he pressed his hand on the horse's back and jumped hard, and rode on the horse's back a little awkwardly, the black horse snorted, but it was still standing there.
After adjusting his sitting posture, Luo Feng patted the horse's neck, "Let's go!" ”
The black horse took a step away from its white hooves and walked slowly in the direction of home.
When he got home, Luo Feng carried the strings of fish into the kitchen.
Stewed a little bigger, stewed tofu with river and stream miscellaneous fish, and stewed in a big pot with some tender green onions. For the middle-sized fish, Luo Feng fried it in lard, and the fried fish was golden on both sides, which could be eaten directly or kept for the next meal.
As for the small ones, Luo Feng directly wrapped them in flour, and fried them crispy, and it became a pot of small fish crisp.
With the millet porridge cooked by the sister-in-law in the morning, the porridge is also mixed with the wild vegetables pulled back from the ground by the younger sister, mixed with the dried pickles dried by Luo, which is really a must.
The family praised again and again, but Luo's mother praised the deliciousness and said that it was a bit extravagant to use up a lot of oil in the morning.
"Well, it smells so good." The door creaked open, and a man barged in, "I'm back!" ”
