Section 111 Everyday life
Plain is a good word, at least for Lao Luo.
No one likes to live like clockwork all day long, even a guy like Lao Luo, who has been trained in many years of military life. In fact, since he came out of the barracks, his career as a mercenary in search of excitement all over the world has hardly left him with no free moments, and for him, this time is the perfect time to rest.
There is no sound of gunfire, no emergency rescue mission, no need to carry out an emergency raid arranged like firefighting, no need to worry about the cold gun shot from behind, no need to worry about the missile that suddenly falls overhead, no need to worry about the betrayal of the so-called friends and friends, compared to the world full of violence in the later generations, this environment without the pollution of the black smoke miasma makes him like it more.
The only regret is that his parents, brothers and sisters are in that world, and when he dreams back at midnight, Lao Luo often thinks of their faces.
In the early morning again, I dreamed again of riding a horse and galloping on the grassland with my parents, brothers and sisters, and woke up to find that it was still the same wooden hut with no big windows.
It's hard to fall asleep again when you wake up, and with the action of getting up, the bones of your body click, which is also a rare refreshing. Change your clothes, wash up, the cold snow water helps to wake up, and by the way, it promotes blood circulation. Pushing open the door, Lao Luo was presented with a cold world covered with snow.
In the past month, the temperature has plummeted, and the amount of snowfall in Central Asia in this era far exceeds that of later generations, but at the foot of this snow-capped mountain, continuous snowfall has covered almost all the mountain scenery that can be seen, especially the heavy snow four days ago under the force of the wind, which actually blocked the doors of most wooden houses.
As a result, the daily training of the last few days has been replaced by a massive snow shoveling activity, because the snow is so thick that it is a meter deep, and the lowest point in Kuzak, where the well is almost filled in - three meters deep!
When he went out of the room, Lao Luo found that the sky was already bright, and he was not the first to get up, the sunrise was late in winter, and it was at the foot of this kind of high mountain, and being able to see the sky was bright meant that it was at least seven o'clock in the morning. The neighborhood of the house where he lived was peaceful, and no one was making noise around her for the sake of her consideration, and the people in the brigade were busy clearing the snow on the roof and the ground to avoid mud and ice rinks caused by the snow, and of course, the ice tumors hanging on the eaves of the house were also dangerous items.
"Hey, Brother Xuan, morning!" Lao Luo met Li Xuan, who was clearing the snow with everyone.
"San Lang, you're late today, and those children have already gotten up." Li Xuan touched the non-existent sweat on his face, and said in a relaxed tone.
"Aha, what are the kids doing?" It was rare to have such a refreshing morning, Lao Luo stretched his waist and asked very casually, he also knew what the children could do, helping to clear the snow was fake, and playing was probably real.
But as he expected, Li Xuan said in a relaxed tone: "Those little guys are troublemakers, digging snow holes in the snow outside!" ”
The answer provided by Li Xuan was as expected, and Lao Luo couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, this kind of child's trick was too familiar, and he did the same thing when he was young in later generations.
"Who took them? It can't be Siniang, right? The reason why I asked this is because Li Ji likes to lie in bed, and rarely likes to get up so early.
"Of course it's not her, it's Cui Eighteen's bastard boy, with his two little followers......" Li Xuan said very casually.
Cui Eighteen's two followers are, of course, the two sheep herding babies in Bukhara, Cui Eighteen was born in Mombasa, and has never seen such heavy snow, the glacier on Mount Kilimanjaro is high, naturally not a seaside child can understand. As for his two henchmen, Uhrman and Kunu, that is, Han names Xu Sigui and Tian Wangdong, they were originally not well fed and clothed, but now their living circumstances have changed greatly and their health is better, so they naturally have the mind of having fun as children.
Lao Luo doesn't want to restrict children's play, he doesn't want to be an authoritarian parent, in fact, many people who didn't have fun when they were teenagers will become too bad when they become adults, and that's the really bad thing.
As for safety concerns?
There is no need at all, not to mention that the snow layer is the best shock absorber, and the Syr Darya River not far away has been frozen for more than half a meter. What's more, the children of this era have all experienced beatings, and they are far from being as fragile as the "little emperors" of later generations.
Ending the conversation with Li Xuan, Lao Luo also reached out to help, with his strength, the huge wooden lift was pushed, like a bulldozer, but it was the snow that was pushed.
At this time, the snow in this kind of place is much cleaner than the snow in the city in later generations, and the snow shoveled away from the city is piled up to the river outside the city, forming a "snow mountain" that is not big or small, Lao Luo plans to make a big slide, and it can be regarded as a big winter toy for the children, and the people in the whole team are of course quite in favor of Lao Luo's idea, anyway, it's a convenient thing, isn't it?
After being busy, Lao Luo went to see the children's play.
The little ones have built a maze under the flat snow!
I didn't see Cui Shibai, the big kid, and Lao Luo guessed which snow cave he might be using as an excavator.
"Jiachen, be careful not to leave your partner behind!" Lao Luo shouted at the twelve-year-old girl dressed like a furball. This little girl is very precocious, and she always has a small face, but now she really looks like a little girl.
Of course, children at this time are generally precocious, married at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and grandmothers at the age of sixteen or seventeen abound.
But this is not Lao Luo's concept, he is still trying to adapt.
"Hey, I can't forget, third uncle, if any unlucky ghost is buried in the snow, we will dig him out!" As he spoke, he waved the small wooden lift in his hand.
A smaller furball spoke, "Third uncle, third uncle, three pigs are drilling around like a big mouse, you have to punish him!" ”
The little furball is of course Luo Jiachen's henchman, at this moment she is wearing a gray hare skin coat, and her gloves are wrapped in fur, and she is still talking about others, she herself is like a large groundhog.
Without waiting for Lao Luo to reply, a small head wearing a gray fur hat came out of a snow cave not far away, "Nan Nan sue the ghost, the troublesome spirit who speaks ill of people behind his back!" ”
Ha, this is a serious groundhog!
Only at this time did Lao Luo feel that they were not a group of little adults, but children full of childishness.
Looking up at the white mountains in the distance, holding the snow-covered green pines and cypresses, the quiet space is only a breeze, the peace and comfort in Lao Luo's heart are all in the words, and he suddenly feels that this world is more like joy is what he wants to fight and protect. Compared to the chaotic world of later generations, this place is like a quiet and leisurely resort.
When you come to this era, you always have to leave something, which is also to supplement the shortcomings of your later generations in reading history.
Of course, only people like Lao Luo can think like this.
For a person who does not have the ability to survive in the wild, he may be swallowed as food by the hyenas of East Africa at the first time, even if he can get out of the grassland of East Africa, the primitive tribes of East Africa are not so easy to deal with, not to mention what Lao Luo has done along the way, which is something that ordinary ordinary people can do?
Some people may say that the golden finger of space to strengthen physical fitness and portable space can be replaced by cats and dogs. In fact, that is wishful thinking, there are many people with great strength, weightlifters are not necessarily good at killing, courage and technique are indispensable, there is no equivalent to the words of people is a test of the soul, that kind of loneliness is not just anyone can bear.
Not to mention the fact that the trip of tens of thousands of miles to return to the homeland is such a thing, it may be okay to have airplanes and cars in the future, but at this time? Perseverance and determination are the biggest issues.
There is also a point worth paying attention to, the golden finger is not something that anyone can have, and it is a trivial matter for a weak soul to be remembered by people if they hold gold to pass through the market, and it is the most fatal thing to be robbed of their minds by foreign objects. How many people don't know why they don't know why they are the second and third in the world, and they lose their hearts and end up in smoke, and such examples abound.
So no matter what era, the capable strong - whether it is the strong of the mind or the body, is the tide of the times, and foreign things are not enough, like in later generations, the so-called second generation seems to have a good father who can take a lot of detours, and it is easier to stand on a high place.
Just as Lao Luo was making a wish in his heart, a voice came, "Mr. Bartol, the engagement ceremony you requested has been discussed with Mr. Ligne......
It was Maxod, the butler of Elhesion. As mentioned above, this old man of Mediterranean descent played the role of the old man between Lao Luo and Li Ji, you must know that in this era, marrying is not a casual thing, especially the identity of the Li family, a descendant of the former Tang royal family, will never be proposed by the parties themselves.
Lao Luo's parents and elders are not around, and it is impossible for the two families to face each other, so the most suitable person who can act as an intermediary is only Max Oude, the car and ship shop foot teeth, the matchmaker is actually a kind of tooth person, Lao Luo's identity is not ordinary, and the identity of the other party is not ordinary, and Max Oude is not humiliating as the identity of this tooth man.
"It's five days from now, isn't it? Is there anything else I need to prepare? Lao Luo asked respectfully. Although the other party is just a housekeeper of Max Ode, he is also a wise old man, and Lao Luo will never slack off.
"Yes, just five days later, Monsieur Lyne said that he was on the road, and that everything had to be done according to the simple and convenient rules, and that he would have to make up for it when he arrived in the East for the wedding in the future." Max Oude is not inferior to his so-called counterparts in England in later generations, of course, the latter Lao Luo has also seen it.
"Good! Max Ode butler has worked hard! Lao Luo was full of thanks, and the ability of this bearded butler was completely trustworthy.
