Chapter 279: Books
After the operation, Yuan Qi was very weak. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info Due to excessive blood loss and the continuous extraction of energy from the embryos, her face is withered, her skin is dry, and she has an unhealthy pale. But there was no longer that demonic voice in her body, which made her feel relieved. Because of constant worry and fear, she hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time.
"Thank you..."
Her lips were dry and cracked, and she had two thick dark circles under her eyes.
The past days were simply a nightmare in her life that she couldn't get rid of. the murderous Redbeard and the sons of Hubiseja, piles of Hindustani who were killed and eaten like brutes; The roar of mutant creatures at night, the ubiquitous bugs, rats.
Li Mu nodded at her, and Li Mei and Shen Luoyan sat on the edge of the hospital bed and chatted with her. They knew each other and whispered a few words of comfort, Yuan Qi's mood gradually stabilized.
Originally, in order to disguise itself as a human baby, the inheritance species was prepared to stay in Yuan Qi's body for nine months before being born in a normal way. But when consciousness is erased, it is born at the normal rate of the son of Hubiseja. Unlike Simidi, which has to sleep in the host's body for months due to its long dormant period, it only takes twenty-five days for it to leave the embryonic stage and leave the host.
Seeing that Yuan Qi was fine after the operation, and there was nothing unusual about the inheritance species in her body, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
When he saw that nothing was wrong, he turned and left.
Li Mu's room is also in the family area assigned by the Freedom Brotherhood, it is just an ordinary barracks barracks, and the area is not much larger than the others, and after putting it in an iron frame bed, it can barely put down a bookshelf. The shelves are filled with books collected from the Larkin Bede.
He picked up a few pieces of suitable coal from the pile outside and put them in the coal stove. It didn't take long for a faint blue flame to rise. He first washed the barley with water, put it in a clay pot, poured in an appropriate amount of water, and covered the pot. The fire of the coals was very strong, and it didn't take long for the water in the clay pot to start boiling.
Cutting some vegetables and jerky on the board, he poured it into the clay pot, covered it, and waited for the barley to be cooked. Cook a lot, and when the time comes, you can eat with Li Mei and Shen Luoyan.
It would take some time for the barley to cook, so he took a book from the shelf.
Most of these books are from the Nether's collection, and some are valuable from the Marauder Leader's collection. Most of them are technical books translated from the Americans, and they are military doctrines and military textbooks. Others are political and economic books collected by the Necroches.
The looters' books were much more disorganized, mostly Hindustani pre-war books that had been dug out of the rubble.
Most of these books are written in Inglis, with a small amount in Northern Hindustani.
Almost no one can understand the Northern Hindustan language now, but Li Mu can still understand the English language, and he took a copy of Radbruch's "Introduction to Law" from it and read it carefully. The more he was exposed, the more he realized he needed to learn.
The book is supposed to have been dug up by the scavengers from the ruins of the library of the University of Hindustan before the war, because it was buried in the closed ruins, and it is largely well preserved. The cover is framed in fine cotton and linen, and the title page is stamped with the stamp of the Hindustan University Library.
He took out a blank stack of manuscript paper and translated it into the original. Translating such a tome requires a high level of knowledge in law and linguistics, but the Brotherhood of Liberty does not have such talents. Even he was the only one in the entire Brotherhood of Liberty who understood Inglis, and he had no choice but to bite the bullet himself.
Fortunately, after he was promoted to the fourth energy level, the thinking ability of the brain has been greatly improved, and he found a thick dictionary, and while flipping through the dictionary, he stumbled and translated, and the speed was not slow.
Larkin Bede has a small printing workshop that specializes in postings and occasional books. Li Mu plans to translate a batch of humanities books by himself, print them in small batches, and establish a library in Lakin Bedri.
When everything in front of him was done and his hands were empty, he wanted to search the ruins of the Hindustan University again to see if he could dig up something of value.
Halfway through the translation, Li Mei and Shen Luoyan had already returned together.
"I'm back, the barley porridge in the clay pot is almost cooked, and the bowl has been cleaned, so if you want to eat it, let's eat it yourself."
"Well, you also put jerky in it, Li Mu, you are the best!"
Shen Luoyan happened to be hungry, so he happily picked up the big bowl that was put aside and fished a full bowl for himself from the crockpot. The room was originally not large, and it was even more crowded after squeezing in three people. The only stool was sat on by Li Mu, so she simply sat on the bed and ate it.
Li Mei was not very hungry, she stood behind Li Mu, ten slender and slender fingers rhythmically massaging his head.
Li Mu felt that Li Mei's calloused fingers were very comfortable on his head because of holding the sword and the gun, the soft palm was close to his cheek, and a fresh jasmine fragrance came to his face, and the swelling pain that had occurred due to excessive use of the brain disappeared almost instantly.
"Hee-hee, do you feel comfortable learning from the nurses in the hospital?"
"Hmph, Meimei, you are too good to this flowery carrot, obviously he should learn it for us!"
Shen Luoyan was drinking wheat porridge while looking at Li Mu who was lying on his back enjoying a massage with dissatisfaction.
"Tomorrow Li Mu will go to the farm outside the city, and he may have to work there for a long time."
Li Mei said with some distress, because of the matter of Larkin Bede, Li Mu has hardly been idle.
"Okay, you're tired too, sit down and rest for a while."
Li Mu refused Li Mei's massage with some difficulty, turned around and lay on the back of the chair.
"Why have you been talking for so long?"
"Miss Yuan kept pulling me to apologize, saying that she shouldn't have let me and Xuan Xuan leave her home at that time."
Li Mei also scooped a bowl of wheat porridge for herself and drank it in small sips.
"She also told me where the batch of Nanyang Heavy Industries materials that Redbeard had looted at that time was hidden, and there were a large number of building materials and construction machinery there, which were exactly what we needed."
Li Mu's face showed a hint of joy, construction machinery was exactly what the Freedom Brotherhood was in short supply. (To be continued.) )
