Chapter 4 There is no way to find the mountains and rivers

Walking on the quiet path, Li Yi had a lot of thoughts, he thought of the two brothers who were in a hurry to say goodbye, Li Er, who was struggling to survive, and Sun Lin, who was in danger, these two people had their own difficulties, and he was single and weak, and he had no power to help, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion when he thought of this.

Li Yi thought about the future again, he mastered a lot of knowledge, and many skills, which the Han Dynasty people did not have, how to turn the inventory in his head into a tool for the people to make profits? This is a difficult problem, but thinking of the breadth of his knowledge, Li Yi feels full of pride and self-confidence.

The spring sun was shining, shining warmly and comfortably on his body, Li Yi walked in a hurry, his head and face were covered with beads of sweat, and they fell to the ground dripping.

"It's so sunny today!" Li Yi muttered to himself, he untied his clothes, took off his long-sleeved coat, and put it on the crook of his arm.

This dress belonged to Li Er, and when he saw that his brother's clothes were ragged and bloodstained, he no longer looked good, so he took out a change of clothes and insisted that Li Yi wear them.

Seeing that it was difficult to resist the hospitality, Li Yi had no choice but to be respectful and obedient, but wearing a robe with big sleeves, he really felt a lot of discomfort, and after walking more than ten miles of mountain paths, he still took off this layer of restraint.

Li Er pointed out a clear road, thirty miles away from Xiao Li Village, there is a large village, because there are mountains and valleys apart, Li Er does not go often.

This place is Taiping Village, which is a first-time person who wants to live a peaceful and stable life, and has an auspicious name. But there are no eggs under the nest, and the troubled times are coming, and Taiping Village is rarely stable.

After turning over a small mountain bag, Li Yi entered a valley, and with the uplift of the peaks on both sides, the canyon appeared deep and long. The valley is meandering, with undulating peaks on both sides, sometimes gentle, sometimes steep and reaching into the sky. The peaks are densely lined with maple, poplar and willow, dotted with pine and cypress, and the coniferous and broad-leaved trees complement each other.

The babbling streams in the mountains merge into a trickling river, flowing quietly and meandering out of the valley. Under the moisture of the water, the grass in the valley is extraordinarily tender and green, and the flowers are extraordinarily bright.

Li Er told that the north and south two mountains, the north mountain is called Longgang Ridge, and the south side of the mountain is Fengwei Mountain, a dragon and a phoenix wind and fall, stretching endlessly, the scenery is natural, ingenious, like a beautiful picture.

Admiring the magnificent spectacle, Li Yi's heart fluctuated, and his eyes burst into brilliant flames. He roared: "I'm here, I'm Li Yi, I want to display my ideals and ambitions!" ”

The cry echoed through the valley for a long time.

Wow! Finally came to the end of the valley, and in front of Li Yi's eyes, an open field appeared. Just now he was still in the mountains and valleys, and now he was standing on the Pingchuan, which made Li Yi feel a sense of sudden enlightenment. Looking at the familiar ridges and figures working in the fields, Li Yi seemed to have returned to his hometown.

The river feeds the people of Taiping Village, allowing them to ignore the influence of the climate and sow seeds according to the season. Seeing the peasants working back and forth, Li Yi had a wonderful idea, which came to his heart, and he pondered it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more wonderful it became.

Li Yi grew up in a farmer's house, and the guys in the fields can also pick it up and put it down. If in the later generations, every farmer has his own specialty, Li Yi does not dare to be arrogant. But now it was 1,800 years ago, and everything here was somewhat behind the era that Li Yi was familiar with, and his eyes fluctuated, and he found many shortcomings.

Although the people of Taiping Village have adopted the ploughing method of two oxen and one person, the structure of the plough stick is too simple. Without a plough and a plough head, it is like a rifle removing the crosshairs, and unless the ploughman is like a sharpshooter, the ground that is ploughed out cannot be straight. The ploughshare is too straight, and the depth of the bored ridge is insufficient, which is not conducive to seed germination and seedling growth. The plough rating is fixed, and the depth of the furrow cannot be adjusted according to local conditions......

Other agricultural tools also have various disadvantages to a greater or lesser extent, and if properly improved, the farming efficiency can be significantly improved.

However, the agricultural knowledge of the ancients was inevitably poor, their knowledge was limited, the farming technology was inevitably backward, and there was also a lack of good strategies for pest control.

Li Yi had a lot of information in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his heart, if he taught everything he knew to the people of Taiping Village to help them get rid of poverty and become well-off, it would also be his immeasurable merit, and at the same time find a shortcut to fill his stomach.

Li Yi, who was imaginative and imaginative, saw a spectacular scene in front of his eyes, from the people of a village who came one after another to learn advanced experience and technology, to the gratifying growth of 10,000 acres of fertile land, and to the scene of sorghum and millet ears full of grains, and the peasants reaping a bumper harvest, singing and dancing to celebrate.

"What are you doing, young man?" A man in his early thirties, seeing Li Yi stunned, he stopped the plowstick, the whip hung on the ground, staring at Li Yi and beating up and down for two non-stop.

"Oh!" Li Yi came back to his senses, looked at the middle-aged man, and saw that his face was like a dragon and a phoenix, full of vertical and horizontal ravines, which was the annual rings carved by the vicissitudes of life. Li Yi took a few steps forward and came to the middle-aged man, his face was full of smiles, his idea had just come out, and someone hit the muzzle, isn't this a sample for a small test!

"This eldest brother, my surname is Li Mingyi, from Xiao Li Zhuang......" Li Yi talked eloquently, he was about to turn to the topic, but was interrupted by the man.

"Xiao Li Zhuang, isn't it the Xiao Li Zhuang in the north? Just a few families that can be checked with a finger, I know all the half-legged little kids, why haven't I seen you, brother! ”

No way! Pick on me! Big brother, you're not authentic! Li Yi blushed and said, "I mean passing by Xiao Li Zhuang, not living there!" Would you like to ask my brother to listen to all of his words? ”

The man snorted and said, "Okay, it's not mine, brother, don't mind." ”

This is about the same, Li Yi's train of thought was interrupted, he straightened out his head and said: "I have walked dozens of miles of mountain roads, just to help others, look at your plowstick, there are many defects, so that the furrows picked out are crooked." If I can improve it a little, I will let you appreciate what it means to be like a divine help, and appreciate the straight ditch like a pen! ”

The man glanced at Li Yi a few times, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "Pull it down quickly, I'll tell you the truth for my brother, you are meeting a kind person, if you change your temper, I won't beat you up!" Send you a word for your brother, or go back and forth! ”

Li Yi made a big fuss about roast chicken, his face was like a red cloth, and beads of sweat the size of beans were dripping down. I was kind enough to help you, but I didn't expect you to not only not appreciate it, but to speak badly and hurtfully.

"Okay, I'm leaving!" Li Yi snorted and threw down the four words, he turned around, and left without looking back like a plague.

This is really two heavens of ice and fire, just a moment of effort, Li Yi's mood fell from the peak to the bottom, he hung his head down, sighing all the way.

Doing things requires perseverance, never-say-die spirit, only small setbacks, and never retreat. This sentence is Li Yi's golden and jade words sent by his female master to learn marksmanship. Thinking of this beautiful girl, his spirits were immediately lifted and he began the journey of promoting technology.

Although Li Yi constantly summed up his methods and improved his way of speaking, as if everyone had discussed it, he deliberately made enemies of him, and no one paid attention to his high-minded talk.

The continuous failures made Li Yi no longer able to lift his mood, and it was noon, and he was hungry again. People are iron and steel, and they don't panic when they don't eat a meal. But with no money and no relatives, where can we solve the problem of food and clothing?

Just as Li Yi was wandering in the field, a big black man walked over.

Oh! This person is taller than himself, and if such a figure is in the later life, it is also a common thing, but in this late Han Dynasty, the standard of living was low, and most people struggled below the food and clothing line, which seriously affected their growth and development, so they were generally not tall. A seven-foot man is only in his early sixties, but that's the average height of the average person.

Li Yi carefully looked at this tall and mighty man, with a round face that was black and red, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a lion nose and a wide mouth. And his attire was indeed different, the farmer he had just met, and Li Er and his wife, were all wearing blue or gray coarse cloth clothes, but this person's clothes were light blue silk gowns. At a glance, you can see the difference in this man's identity.

The big man smiled heartily, hugged his fists and said: "My surname is Wang Mingren, and my family lives in Taiping Village. ”

Seeing that you are not a person who works in the field, and it is useless to talk to you, why should I do more? Li Yi thought about it and smiled: "I don't have anything to do, so I won't bother Brother Wang!" ”

Wang Ren smiled slightly and said: "I am an authentic farmer, presumably my brother Tai has also looked away, so it's no wonder that all the brothers and uncles are gone!" ”

This Wang Ren is voice in his words, he clearly said his origin, but secretly signaled that I Li Yi is not like a cropper. Yes, I haven't done farm work in the first place, and that doesn't mean I haven't studied!

Since you mentioned the conversation, then I don't have to be polite, Li Yi smiled sadly and said: "It's me Li Yi's eyesight is not enough, and he didn't find Brother Wang's real gold." Since Brother Tai understands this, it saves me a lot of inconvenience. Brother Wang is an understanding person, let's open the skylight and say bright words, I have the idea of transforming farm tools, and I am also planning to change the farming technology to be more scientific and reasonable, if Brother Tai can be trusted, we can sit down and discuss together! ”

Wang Ren's original intention was to wake up, so that Li Yi would not be obsessed, but he didn't expect that he would be wrong, but he was entangled with himself. "Haha!" Wang Ren smiled heartily and said, "I'll tell you the truth, Brother Li doesn't look like a farmer, so no one can trust you." If you want to win the trust of the people, you need to show real skills! ”

Really? This is for me to actually operate for a year, no, half a year! But from spring planting to autumn harvest, it is necessary to waste months in vain, and time is precious, how can you waste time?

There is no master here, but there is a place to raise a master. Forget it, I don't have time to prove myself. I don't want the food that comes to my door, these people are really stupid!

"Thank you Brother Tai for waking up, I understand the reason, Brother Wang, please take care, we will have a date later!" Li Yi said goodbye to Wang Ren and walked away.

"Alas!" Wang Ren stretched out his hand, as if to call Li Yi, but the voice of the shout was extremely low, and his arm was retracted, and he changed his mind in an instant.

It's really fucking depressed, Li Yi buried his head in the streets of Taiping Village, and he had a feeling that he had never met a talent. The main street of Taiping Village runs north-south, which is extremely rare, perhaps because of the custom of the original residents, or the river next to the village, which restricts the east-west development. In short, the north and south streets are extremely long, and Li Yi, who is hungry, can't go to the end no matter how he goes.

The aroma of rice, blown by the warm spring breeze, entered Li Yi's nostrils, making his hunger even stronger, and he was tormented and tempted.

If a person is unlucky, he will stuff his teeth when he drinks cold water, and this meal will also be against himself, Li Yi is belly, and a board enters his sight.

Scythes, hoes, pickaxes...... The board is full of farm tools! These farm tools are stupid and stupid, without half of the spirituality, with this kind of farm tools, don't you want to do half the work, and be wronged in vain! Aren't you clamoring to promote new farm tools? Working with this blacksmith shop is definitely a shortcut.

Li Yi looked up at the shop, and the book was crooked and twisted with three big characters: Blacksmith Zhao. Okay, that's it, as long as the surname Zhao nods, then his own restaurant will be found!

This is really a poor mountain and a water, and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and bright. The door of Zhao's blacksmith's house was ajar, Li Yixing rushed into the gate of Zhao's house, the courtyard was empty and quiet, and there was nothing different, Li Yi went straight into the house.

I saw a big man snoring on the couch, and there was not a trace of fire in the iron furnace. Is business also sluggish? Seeing this situation, Li Yi's sense of desolation arose. This is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind!

Don't wake up the blacksmith Zhao's clear dream, Li Yi is about to leave. Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Yi turned around, he caught a glimpse of a curved bow and a spear on the corner wall. Li Yi was not interested in the hanging bow, but his eyes were a little straight at the spear poked obliquely next to him.

Attacked by fierce beasts and chased by strong enemies, that thrilling scene made Li Yi remember it vividly, if he had a big gun, how could he suffer such a wretch?

This gun is exquisitely made, the barrel is smooth and solid, it is made of fine oak wood, the head of the gun is bright and bright, faintly shining green, which shows its exquisite craftsmanship. It turned out that Blacksmith Zhao also watched people put down dishes! The crooked melons and cracked date-like farm tools outside the door are all shoddy goods.

Looking at this delicate spear, the more Li Yi looked at it, the more he liked it, he couldn't help the temptation, reached out to hold the barrel of the spear, shook his arm slightly, and weighed the weight of the spear.

It's still a little lighter, but to Li Yi, who is poor and white, he is absolutely satisfied with a big gun, and he still cares about the weight of the gun?

Holding the guy in hand, Li Yi's heart was already itchy, and he looked at the hut, this narrow space couldn't be used at all. Thinking of the empty courtyard, Li Yi's heart lit up, yes, go out and try your hand and see if I came to another world, have I lost my original kung fu!

"Little thief, stop me!"

A loud shout sounded, and Li Yi's heart trembled. Who do you say? Thief! Li Yi felt a little dizzy, he was looking for the thief outside, but after turning his head for a week, how could there be a shadow of the thief?

"Talk about you! Pretending to be a good one, pretending to be quite like! Must be a veteran, let's say, how many years have you been a thief? I didn't know that Dahan realized that there was someone in the house, he suddenly woke up, and saw Li Yi pick up the big gun and leave, and his first reaction was that he was a thief.

"You talk nonsense, I ...... How could I be a thief! Li Yi's face turned red, and he didn't speak very coherently, but he didn't mean to stop at his feet.

"After taking my Zhao Neng's things, do you still want to run away?" Zhao Neng shouted, rushed to Li Yi in two or three steps, and blocked the door of the house tightly with his strong body.

"Get out of the way!" Li Yi was a little anxious, he stretched out his left hand and was about to grab Zhao Neng's arm.

"Little thief, what do you want to do!" Zhao Nengqi slammed upward, picked up a fist with a sand bowl, and smashed his head and face into Li Yi's cheek.

Compared with Zhao Neng's body, although Li Yi is tall, he is not as strong as him, and the blacksmith is a little jealous in his heart, so he wants to strike first. Seeing Zhao Neng's fierce face, he looked like he was going to be punished. Li Yi said in his heart: No matter what, you can't leave a bad reputation as a thief.

The spear can't be used at all! Li Yi has never practiced boxing and kicking, but he has a certain foundation, and it is also because of inferences and bypasses, he was in a hurry, habitually retreated, and while dodging Zhao Neng's ferocious punch, he suddenly stretched out his left hand, grabbed Zhao Neng's right arm, and gently pulled back. Looking at Blacksmith Zhao again, it was a lot of fun, he had lost his center of gravity, and was borrowed by Li Yi, took two steps, and fell forward with a "snap".

"Okay, if you are a thief and beat people, I am not done with you!" Zhao Neng grinned and got up, and he ran towards Li Yi angrily.

How do you say this, a sturdy man, just such a straw bag? As soon as he touched it, he fell firmly.

Li Yi wanted to step forward to help people to make amends, but he didn't expect Zhao Neng to jump up, and he didn't give up, the place in the house was narrow, and if he grabbed him, he might also suffer.

The courtyard is not big, but there is room to show, Li Yi jumped to the courtyard with a strong step, he held a big gun, and said with a smile: "Master Zhao, everything is a misunderstanding, you dissipate your anger, don't be unforgiving, I will return the gun to you!" ”

"If you are determined to repent, lie on the ground and kowtow three times, call me Grandpa Zhao three times, and we will be counted as two clear. Otherwise, it's nonsense, let's see a real chapter in our fists! Zhao Neng's fall was confused, he thought that he was mixing garlic under his feet, if he was careful, he could use the brute force of striking iron to restrain this idle thief.

Li Yi's appearance is white, and there are no calluses on his hands, so he is mistaken for not doing physical work, and his strength is naturally shortcoming. But Zhao Neng looked away this time.

Zhao Neng's words were sinister, and Li Yi was so angry that he was angry: If you don't give him a little bit of power, you will be a soft egg who is bullied by others!

Seeing Zhao Neng striding forward with a cupola, he went straight to his nose, but there was no root under his feet. Li Yi's heart was bright, it turned out that he didn't know martial arts.

This is a bit of a victory! But this kid is too rampant, don't teach him a lesson, it's really this evil breath in his chest, Li Yi's heart is like stopping water, his footwork is stable, only a little dodge, he dodged Zhao Neng's fist, he poked with the barrel of a gun, Zhao Neng was a horse again, this time it was heavier than falling in the house.

"What is this for, it's not a New Year's holiday, what is it kowtowing to!" In order to make Zhao Neng angry, Li Yi deliberately jumped in front of him and stood in front of him.

"Good! You're looking for death! "Zhao Neng is a character that would rather not bend, his anger is rising, and he is also the master that a few strong cows can't hold.

But the strength is not good, the skills are not as good as others, in front of Li Yi, Zhao Neng is like a child, being played around, "Bang! "Smack!" …… I fell more than ten times in a row. Rao was physically strong, and he couldn't afford to fall like this, so he simply lay on the ground and didn't move.

Don't kill people too much, you have to be forgiving and forgiving. Seeing that Zhao Neng was tossed enough, Li Yi was also a little reluctant in his heart, he poked the big gun to the ground, arched his hand and said: "Do you believe it or not, I still say the same thing, it was all a misunderstanding between us." Li Yi is offended, please take care of Brother Zhao more! ”

Li Yi pulled his legs and left, but unexpectedly, thunderous applause rang out outside the courtyard.

"Who the is coaxing, running to Zhao Ye's house to spread wild, don't you get in quickly, make a compensatory to grandpa, Zhao Ye will spare you as soon as he is happy!" Knowing that he can't afford to provoke Li Yi, he can't stop him if he wants to, but there are good things that can't get by, Zhao Neng can hold back his anger, how can he let go of this opportunity to vent?
