Chapter 100: The Luo Family
Luo Xi, the head of the village, was a man with a very bright brain, and although he was in a hurry due to the arrival of many strangers in the village, he quickly thought of a solution.
Luo Xi divided the group into many groups, two or three in each group, and then asked each family in the village to bring a group of people back to help. In this way, the new people can not only support themselves, but also add some cheap labor to the villagers in the village, which is really a double win.
Luo Xi was secretly proud of his Hongtao strategy, but what made him even happier was that with the right of the village chief, he gave priority to choosing a pair of golden boys and girls to go to Luo's house. These two are not only beautiful, but also look smart and clever, and they will definitely be able to help the Luo family make a lot of money. Luo Xi's daughter-in-law Li Yuelian, as well as Luo Xi's pair of children, Luo Hai and Luo Yun, were also very happy.
However, Luo Xi's family was not happy for a few days, and regretted taking these two people in.
It's not that these two people are lazy and not diligent, in fact, they are quite hard-working, but as soon as they are empty, they will wander around and inquire about some inexplicable things. One moment he asked the people in the village if they had seen two horses, one red and one white, and another time he asked if there were two bald heads with a few young men who had come here before, and the most unbelievable thing was that they even asked how they could get to the other side of the sea from here.
Everyone in the village knows that the other side of the Sea of Death is an incredibly cold snow, fog and ice field, and compared with the shore where the sun is blazing every day, the two sides of the Sea of Death are simply two heavens of ice and fire. And no one has ever gone there in the village, no one has the ability to go, and no one has the idea of going.
If you have to go there, you can only take the "Daqian Boat" in nearby Tianshui City. The ship is huge, with a length of ten zhang and a width of three zhang, and can seat hundreds of people. It is said that this ship was built by the royal family of the Great Cangguo Kingdom for several years, and it is also the only ship that can cross the sea of death.
Even if there were such a large number of ships, the people who went to the other side of the sea by boat would also die eight out of ten, and the specific reasons were not only unadaptable, tsunami and tornadoes, but also various biological threats in the sea, and some unknown dangers. In short, the current ships are used to go out to sea to fish, and no one will want to take a boat to the other side of the sea, except for these two newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers.
Luo Xi persuaded them with kind words, but they insisted very much, and they would wait until the big thousand ships that went to sea came back and take the boat to the snow-fog ice field on the other side. Luo Xi thought that these two laborers would be leaving soon, and he regretted that he didn't pick other people in the first place.
It was another waning moon in the early morning, the door of Luo's house was not locked, and the dark and thin Luo Hai pushed open the door and walked out barefoot. As soon as they arrived outside the door, they saw Xia Xian carrying their mast and waiting at the door.
Luo Hai smiled: "Xia Xian, why is it so early?"
"Why do you ask me this question every day?
"What about Bingruo? She seems to have been before you. ”
"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean often, that guy is only occasionally early. ”
While they were talking and laughing, they saw a barefoot girl in a white dress, carrying a basket of fishing lines in one hand and a harpoon and a tow hook in the other, walking briskly towards them from the direction of the shore.
Xia Xian asked her in surprise: "Why are you running to the shore alone early in the morning, how dangerous it is!"
"I got up early today, and I want to see if the ship has returned. ”
"You can't go alone in the future, you're really ......" Xia Xian took the harpoon from her while educating Bing Ruo.
"Hey, where is Sister Yun?" Bingruo swept around, but Luo Yun was nowhere to be seen.
"My sister had a fever last night, let her have a good rest, it's okay for the three of us to go, I'm a professional." ”
"Hahaha, professional??" Xia Xian said with a grin, Bingruo glanced at him, and asked Luo Hai: "Sister Yun is better now?"
"My mother boiled ginger soup for her at night, she sweated a lot after drinking it, I went to see her before I came out just now, and it was much better, let's go."
After Luo Hai finished speaking, he looked at Xia Xian's full body of equipment, and stepped forward to carry the mast with the sail on his body to his shoulder, "You thin skin and tender meat, you still carry so many things......"
"Have you had breakfast, I got up early, I'm so hungry......" Bingruo suggested going to the restaurant for breakfast first.
"We get our stuff on the boat and then we go to the Fisherman's House. Luo Haidao.
The fishermen in the village go out to sea very early, so the fisherman's restaurant will open early in the morning to entertain the villagers.
They sat at the table, drinking soy milk and eating pancakes.
"Why hasn't the ship come back after so many days?" Bingruo asked with a lamentation as she casually nibbled on the pancake fruit.
"Didn't you say you're hungry? Why do you have to ask it every day, and if you ask too much, will it come back?" said Xia Xian.
"It's not that your father is under house arrest, so you are naturally not in a hurry!"
"Liang Bing, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you have a conscience? What does it matter to me, why am I here?"
"If you don't want to go, you can go back to Wuping County!"
"You ......"
Luo Hai saw that the two were about to quarrel again, so he hurriedly persuaded him to make peace.
"Bingruo, it will take a long time for the ship to go to sea once, you better be patient and wait. However, even if the ship comes back, you can't afford to ride...... Also, how could the shipmaster allow you to sail your ship to the snowy ice field...... Forget it. ”
The more Bingruo listened, the more lost she became, she stopped making a sound, and drank soy milk by herself.
"I'll go out and buy some fresh bait, and you'll wait for me here. Luo Hai put down this sentence and hurriedly left the scene of this embarrassing atmosphere.
Xia Xian and Bingruo both bowed their heads to eat breakfast, no one looked at anyone, and no one spoke.
After a while, Xia Xian couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Bing Ruo opposite, Bing Ruo also happened to raise his eyes to look at him, and the two looked at each other in embarrassment for a short time, and then both lowered their heads again.
After a while, Luo Hai returned, and they settled the bill, leaving the Fisherman's Pavilion, and walking along the coral rock path to their boat. They were all barefoot, and they felt the sand and diaphragm under their feet along the way, as if the sand had begun to heat up.
Walking to the shore, they lifted the boat and let it slide into the water.
"I hope I get a big fish today!" Luo Hai said cheerfully.
"Of course you'll catch big fish, you're a professional!" Xia Xian gave Luo Hai an encouraging look.
Bingruo put the buckle of the oar on the peg of the oar base and sat down in the middle of the boat.
Luo Hai and Xia Xian leaned forward, and against the resistance of the oars in the sea, rowed the boat out of the harbor.
From afar, they could see other boats going out to sea on the beaches elsewhere on the shore, and from time to time they heard the sound of oars entering the water and paddling, and occasionally the voices of the people on board.
The boats scattered out of the harbor, each rowing to the spot where the fishermen thought they had fish. Xia Xian and Luo Hai rowed the oars quickly, and the boat gradually left the breath of the land behind them and sailed into the pure air of the sea in the early morning.
"Shall we go farther this time? It's rare that my sister isn't here. Luo Hai proposed.
When Xia Xian heard this, he also became excited: "Yes, what a rare opportunity! If Sister Yun is here, we can only walk around the shore, how boring." Let's go, professional Luo fisherman!"
Bingruo had no interest in such a senseless adventure, but she was not interested in the oars in their hands, and she was also curious about what the situation was in the distance of this outlaw sea, and she did not know if she might run into a thousand ships, so she did not object.
"Don't go too far, it's almost enough, our ship is small after all. ”
"Don't worry, Bingruo, I'm a professional and won't row too far. ”
So, their little fishing boat set out towards the blue of the Far Dead Sea......
