Chapter 212: The Suffocated Fire Pit
I don't know what Bourro had in mind, but they also had the means to limit Boro's personal freedom.
He could only be allowed to leave.
"You didn't sleep all night last night?"
"How dare I sleep. He Yunlei said honestly, "Let's not talk about the demon, just this exorcist can easily kill me." ”
"But I don't think he's a weirdo. An even younger farmer said, "If he wants to kill you, wouldn't it be as easy as if you were awake?"
"Yes, but he's an exorcist after all. He wasn't here because he wanted to help us kill the yellow worms, but because of the 10,000 bounty. ”
"But there are still two days to go, do you think the demon will really appear in these two days, if Boro doesn't show up...... Then our 10,000 coins are not ...... "the peasants' faces are full of difficulty", that is our income for several years. ”
"Isn't it just 10,000 coins, and we don't have much to spend in our hands. "If this plan really succeeds, then we are equivalent to saving the names of hundreds of people, and money is more valuable than human lives!"
The man stopped talking, after all, since he agreed to join, he couldn't go back, "I'm just afraid that this 10,000 coins will be taken away for nothing, and we won't be able to take out so much money at that time." ”
Several people were silent, this 10,000 coins was already their own, not counting everyone's own careful thoughts.
"Yun Lei, are you sure that thing will actually appear recently?"
"Actually...... I'm not entirely sure either."
He Yunlei's words made everyone stunned, can't be completely sure that this is not the same as uncertainty?
"But don't worry, I think it's been the last few days. He Yunlei said confidently: "Calculate the days, this year's winter is almost over, and those demons who survive by the winter cold will naturally take action in these few days." ”
His companions understood this, too, but they had no choice, because no one could accurately calculate the time of the demon's infestation.
Until noon, several people took turns to help He Yunlei complete today's task.
"Why hasn't the exorcist come back, he must have guessed something. The youngest peasants guessed that they were always so pessimistic.
"Probably not, after all, this is a reward of 10,000 coins. Ten thousand!"
A horse-drawn carriage came from a field road not far away, driven by a kind-faced old man.
He drove the carriage and stopped beside several people
"Boy, it's time to get there. The old man turned and knocked on the plank behind him.
"Got it. Boro jumped out of the car, "You guys come over and help the handle." ”
The peasants looked at each other, and Boro dragged a large bundle of firewood from the cart and some brand new quilts.
"Help me move all this to the tent. ”
"What are you doing, sir?"
"Burn the fire to keep warm, you weren't here last night, maybe you don't know this place, don't look at it now, it's so warm that it's cold at night. Boro jumped into the carriage again, carrying two water bags from above, "Catch it." ”
The two of them caught what Boro had thrown down in a daze, apparently not expecting Boro to do so.
Standing in the carriage, Boro found the last thing and jumped out of the carriage with it.
"Trouble uncle. Boro came to the old man and shouted into his ear.
"Ah~ no trouble. Then if you have anything else, I'll go back!" The old man laughed and pulled his horse around.
"Here, this is a medicinal herb. Boro handed two small packets of medicinal herbs to He Yunlei, "Although it is only a minor illness, it must be cured to recover his spirit." ”
He Yunlei was also a little dazed: "This ...... Is it for me?"
Boro did not reply, but walked over to the tent and spread out the bundles of lumber, pulling out a small portion of them and stacking them in front of him.
Following the practice of Qiu Lao at that time, the flint was placed close to the low end of the firewood, and a wisp of white smoke gradually rose from below.
Soon flames were rising from below.
"Oh, no, I forgot to take the pot and pan. Only then did Boro remember that he had specially prepared a pot for boiling water, although it was only two days, but he couldn't cool it every day. It's a shame on your body
But now the old uncle doesn't know where to go for a long time, and even if he wants to, he can't catch up.
"Forget it, let's just bake it for two days. ”
There was a sound of horses chirping in the distance, and Boro turned his head to see the old man returning, "Young man, you have forgotten something." ”
The old man pulled the carriage back to its place, and picked up a pot from his side, in which a little condiment was placed.
"My pot! Uncle thank you so much, otherwise I would have had to drink cold water for the past two days. ”
"This soup still has to be hot to taste, it really can't be heated without a pot. ”
Boro took the pot and thanked the old man again.
"It's good now. "Boro didn't have the kind of bracket around him in the caravan at the time, but fortunately there was another way.
Boro picked up He Yunlei's hoe and "borrowed it from me", and without prescribing it, he nodded in agreement, and began to dig a pit in the hard soil outside the tent.
"This frozen ground is almost as hard as a stone!" It took a great deal of effort for Boro to dig a small hole, and in the process he dug out some gray stone fragments from the ground below.
When the pit was almost the size of the pit, Boro put a pile of firewood inside, picked up the fire stick that had been lit on the ground and threw it into the pit.
"Done," Boro was a little smug, this was the first time he had done cooking.
"Fortunately, I asked the fat man how to make that spicy broth. Boro took off the cloth bag around his waist, it was a small piece of fat, and looking at the piece of fat in his hand, Boro felt a little heartache.
"It's a little bit more expensive than all of that combined. "But heartache is heartache, money is for oneself to spend, and keeping it is useless.
Several people looked at the piece of meat in Boro's hand, and their mouths suddenly flooded. That's meat, and in the past, it was only when spring came that each family could get a little bit, and they had never seen such a large piece.
Boro thought about it, cut half of the meat with Naruto and put it in the water, and sprinkle it with some condiments. It was exactly what the fat man told him at the time.
A puff of smoke suddenly came out of the pit under the pot, and Boro was choked and ducked back, "What's the matter?"
He Yunlei walked over, put the medicine bag aside, and picked up the pot, "The fire is suffocated, can it not smoke." ”
As he spoke, he picked up a hoe and chiseled out the flow openings on both sides of the fire, but fortunately, the fire was not completely extinguished, and he blew a few mouthfuls of fire nearby, and then it came out again.
"Now it's fine. He Yunlei smiled at Boro: "After this porridge is boiled in a while, can I share a bowl?"
"Why not, I can't drink such a big pot myself. ”
Boro sprinkled all sorts of spices, and it seemed that their wariness of themselves had subsided. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Looking for the Flower Spirit Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
