Chapter 2: Zhuo Yi and Da Yuan
Dust.
Cobweb.
There were also two emaciated men.
This is the scene that Lige saw when he walked into the yamen of the White Bone City.
Judging from the two thin men who hurriedly cleaned this place, it was obvious that no one had been here in this yamen for a long time.
The situation in Bone City has also been learned a little bit from Song, first of all, the size and population of the city.
It is three miles long from north to south and five miles wide from east to west.
The population is only 5,000, mostly elderly, women and children.
There are a small number of young people, a small number of teenagers, and even fewer in the prime of life.
The second is the living conditions in the city, backwardness and poverty.
And then there's the city guards, eh...... It can be said that 80 percent of them are veterans over the age of 50.
That's why the City of Bones is also known as the Prison City.
It means that the people inside the city can't go out, and the people outside don't want to come.
The sun and the moon accumulate, and time passes.
Bone City gradually became what it is now.
......
Da Yuan raised his hand and stabbed Zhuo Yi, his eyes glancing in the direction of the door, motioning for him to look there.
"What's wrong," Zhuo Yi, who lowered his head and wiped the table, didn't notice that someone walked into the yamen, and asked without reacting for a while.
Then he saw that Da Yuan gave him a look, and then he looked up and found that a young man had walked into the yamen at some point.
He was startled at first, then got up and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
But just after he finished asking, he suddenly noticed the clothes of the young man who walked into the yamen.
His eyes lit up, and his heart thumped.
With a hint of uncertainty in his excitement, he asked again, "Wouldn't you be the catcher from outside?" ”
Stretching away from Ge Meiyu, he saw the two thin men cleaning the yamen, and finally found himself walking in.
Raised his finger and pointed to the catcher on his body, and smiled: "If there is no one else, it should be me." ”
"It's really you!"
Da Yuan, who is usually relatively simple, said loudly with joy at this time.
"It's like a fake," Lige replied with a smile.
Then the three of them introduced themselves and got to know each other.
At this time, Lige also knew the situation of the two and what they were called.
Get up and ask him first, a man with a thin body and very handsome facial features is called Zhuo Yi.
has no father, and there are only two people in the family, him and his mother.
After getting up and talking, the man with a thin body and a relatively round face is called Dayuan.
Fatherless and motherless, an orphan.
And the two of them are also the only two people in White Bone City who are fast catched, and they usually live in the backyard of the Yamen.
However, according to the two of them, although the two of them are the catchers of Bone City, they haven't been on a mission for a long time.
This is also the reason why the lobby of the yamen is now covered with dust and cobwebs.
After getting to know each other, Lige rolled up his sleeves and helped clean up the yamen lobby first.
He didn't come here to be depressed.
Time passed, and the three of them worked for four or five hours before they completely cleaned the yamen lobby.
By this time, it was already evening.
Grunt!
Da Yuan, who got up and hammered his waist, screamed in his stomach.
It's been a long time since he's worked so hard, and in the past, Zhuo Yi went out to help people with work or something.
And he, after receiving the meager allowance every month, has nothing to do.
There was a mixed day without a meal, until the next month's time.
In fact, he didn't want to live such a day, he also wanted to go to the end of the world with a sword, kindness, righteousness and hatred.
I also want to wear armor and go into battle with a spear in my hand to kill the enemy.
But the reality told him that he sometimes didn't have to eat even one meal a day, and his body was not allowed to do this at all.
All dreams need to be built on the condition of food and clothing.
This is what Uncle Chu, who guarded the city gate, said to him.
Scratching his head, Da Yuan smiled slightly embarrassed.
Lige also smiled and put down the rag in his hand.
said: "That's all for today, I'll invite you to dinner." ”
From now on, he will be the head of these two people.
Therefore, the diet and daily life of these two people in the future actually need to be borne by him.
When he came to Yamen at this time, Lord Xiang said to him.
......
At sunset, a family in Bone City placed four "One More Bowls" noodle restaurant with broken Zhuozi.
Da Yuan patted his stomach and burped.
He didn't seem to have eaten so much.
Zhuo Yi picked up the bowl and sucked the last trace of noodle soup at the bottom of the bowl.
With a touch of embarrassment on his face, he said to Lige: "It's a waste of money for big brother." ”
"It's okay, I'm asking for a few bowls before I'm full. Lige smiled and said.
"I haven't eaten enough and I'm gone," a slightly chubby woman came out of the back kitchen, wiped her face on her apron, and said with an unkind face.
Her noodles are limited every day, and she usually only prepares 30 bowls of noodles in the evening.
Ten of them were reserved for the guards and night veterans.
The remaining twenty bowls are ready for the people who have a busy day but have no time to cook.
But now that these three guys who came early were given fifteen bowls, she couldn't help but feel unpleasant in her heart.
There is no way, who made the city starved of food.
She wanted to do more, and she didn't have that many faces.
Forehead......
I was stunned when I left the song.
"Are you kidding? Aunt Wang, we're full. Zhuo said apologetically.
Of course he knew the situation in Bone City.
Food is limited every day, so no matter how rich you are, you can't buy extra food.
And he is also clear about the rules of the noodle restaurant.
It's just that I haven't eaten like this for a long time.
couldn't hold back his mouth for a while, and he and Dayuan ate thirteen bowls.
"Stingy," Da Yuan muttered quietly, holding his mouth.
Fortunately, he is full, regardless of whether it is still there or not.
Lige came back from his stunned state, and sighed indescribably in his heart.
Bone City turned out to be this kind of place.
Then he took out a dozen copper coins from his bosom and paid the face money.
Then with Zhuo Yi and Dayuan, he hurriedly returned to the yamen.
He had learned more about the situation in Bone City from the two of them.
Before leaving, he promised Tai'an that he would definitely do something.
But looking at the current situation of Bone City, it seems to be a bit difficult!
But it is difficult to go on.
Only in this way can he have a chance to return to Thousand Waters City.
Time flies like a white horse, and in a blink of an eye, it has been more than ten days since I left the song and came to the White Bone City.
In the past ten days, he has thoroughly understood the White Bone City.
The situation was worse than he had imagined.
There are no people, no food, no money, not even decent weapons.
The most important thing is that it was the second day after he came to Bone City.
City Lord Xiang sent him a case that had been accumulated for several years.
Tell him that if he doesn't deal with it, those villages outside Bone City will disappear.
Alas, it's a bit stressful!
In the lobby of the Yamen of the White Bone City, Li Ge looked down at the cases sent by the City Lord Xiang.
Suddenly, the eyes converged.
Case: Ten miles west of Bone City, some monsters with pumpkins on their heads and glowing eyes suddenly appeared a month ago.
A number of villages have been attacked.
So the heads of five nearby villages jointly issued a mission.
If there is a warrior who can take down these pumpkin monsters.
Reward: A fist meteorite.
"Okay," it's you.
The singer pointed to this case, and said with a clear expression.
Then he said to Zhuo Yi and Da Yuan on the side
"Let's go, go to the case. ”
