There are several bamboo forests in Yangshan, there are many types of bamboo, and the bamboo wall needs the kind of slender bamboo, and there is a bamboo forest on a mountainside not far from Yangshan Village.

Bamboo is also a very hardy plant, after another cold winter, although this piece of bamboo is not so fresh and tender, but at least it is green, the mountains and forests are yellow, this green is particularly conspicuous.

Although the bamboo is thin, it is extremely tough, but as long as the firewood knife is sharp enough, it can still be easily cut.

This bamboo forest is not small, and the men in the village cut it down for three days before they cut down all the bamboos in this bamboo forest and transported them back to the village. After the bamboo was cut, Fang Daping arranged for people to tie bamboo nets and weave bamboo walls. In fact, the so-called bamboo wall is a large fence made of fine bamboo, which is denser, tighter, and stronger.

Lu Yu didn't participate much in weaving the bamboo wall, and the paddy field needed to be taken care of by the five miles apart from the mountain, so Yu Yan Jibai occasionally went out to help build the wall.

This time, the villagers were very active, and every household went out to weave bamboo walls and dig pits. The pit was dug next to the bamboo wall, almost circumnavigating the village, leaving a few passages in and out. The dragon crocodile is too ferocious and too difficult to deal with, although it is also a little dangerous to set a trap at the edge of the village, but as long as it can block and isolate the dragon crocodile, this is not a concern, so I can only let the children in the village not go to play by the bamboo wall.

After being busy for almost a month, the villagers built two bamboo walls at the edge of the village, which were more than a zhang apart, and the pit was dug between the two bamboo walls.

No matter how strong the bamboo wall is, it is just a simple construction of bamboo, and the dragon crocodile cannot be stopped by a hard block. But if the dragon crocodile breaks through the first bamboo wall, some of them will definitely fall into the pit. The pit was nearly a foot deep, and there were many pointed wooden stakes buried in it.

Throughout February, Lu Yu went up the mountain to hunt a few times, but he did not encounter the dragon crocodile again, which made him and everyone feel much more at ease. Lu Yu thought to himself, the last time the dragon crocodile entered the village, there were a lot of casualties, maybe they ate a trench and grew wise, and they didn't dare to come again.

Fast forward to March, and this year seems to be really different from the past two years, this spring has the right amount of rain and sunshine, and everything seems to be going in a good direction.

March and April were very busy, and Lu Yu was particularly busy. The rice in the rice fields in the Anding Valley has bloomed, and Lu Yu needs to divert water from the stream for irrigation, and he has to go down to the field to pull out the wild weeds; The dry land outside the valley needed to be planted, mainly corn and soybeans, and he planted a few more sweet potatoes.

Originally, Lu Yu wanted to plant sweet potatoes in all the fields, the harvest was high, and it was easy to take care of, but the taste was not very good (sweet potatoes were the staple food, and you would want to die after eating them for a long time), Lu Yu now has the paddy fields in the valley, so he doesn't need to plant so many sweet potatoes. However, apart from Lu Yu, most of the families in the village grow more sweet potatoes, and they don't have any additional paddy fields to supplement with food.

Now the four members of the Yan family are also more and more involved in Lu Yu's "great cause of farming", Yan Jibai follows Lu Yu to the field every day, and Yan Xi will definitely help occasionally. Although the father and son came down from the city, after two years of "tempering" in the countryside, they are now doing farm work, which is also a very good help. With the help of this father and son, Lu Yu finally planted the crops on time.

In May, the fields are drying and the rice is ready to be harvested.

Lu Yu's family has a few kitchen knives and firewood knives, but these can't be used to cut rice, so Lu Yu has to buy a few sickles.

There is still no food in the city and town, but some shops have already opened. So early this morning, Lu Yu went to the town again and was with Yan Xi'an.

Lu Yu's family didn't have much food, and he didn't have anything else to bring to Lu Ming, so he didn't plan to go to Zhang's house.

On the way to Dunlin Town, Yan Xi'an said to Lu Yu that he had been busy and lost a little weight recently.

Lu Yu rarely looks in the mirror, but he has been busy in and out of the valley in the past few months, and it is indeed a bit hard. He is not the only one who works hard, the four members of the Yan family are busy with Lu Yu, and they are also very hard.

Lu Yu said: "Xi'an, you have also worked hard, and you bring us food every day." "In the days when the farm was busy, Mrs. Yan cooked the food and asked Yan Xi'an to send it to the field for Lu Yu. At that time, he was too busy and had to rush to sow seeds, so Lu Yu basically didn't go back to lunch. In fact, it was the same last year, when no one brought him food, and he was too lazy to eat.

"What's there to deliver food." Seeing that there were no pedestrians on the road before and after, Yan Xi'an stretched out his hand to hold Lu Yu, and said, "Uncle, my cultivation seems to have improved again." ”

Lu Yu smiled: "That's good, Xi'an, do you think there's anything different about you now?" ”

"I just feel that my body has become a lot lighter, and my strength is also a little bigger."

Lu Yu nodded, and asked again, "Then do you know what spells now?" He remembered that after less than half a year of practice, he was able to create flames out of thin air and shoot water arrows.

"It doesn't seem to work yet." Yan Xi'an asked Lu Yu again: "Uncle, didn't you say that there are many stages of kitchen knife formulas, do you see if I have cultivated to the second level now?" ”

"It should be a little worse." Lu Yu cultivates for every breakthrough, and on the kitchen knife where the upper-level mantra has disappeared, a new mantra will appear. But this kitchen knife is not Yan Xi'an's, even if she has a breakthrough in cultivation, there will be nothing on the kitchen knife, so Lu Yu can only confirm whether Yan Xi'an has a breakthrough based on his previous cultivation experience.

Yan Xi'an was a little disappointed, pouted and said, "Uncle, how long have you been cultivating before you broke through the first layer?" ”

"It's been more than a year." Lu Yu suddenly felt a little strange, it took him a year and a half to break through the first layer, but it didn't take that long to break through the second layer.

"Hehe, then the progress of my cultivation doesn't seem to be slow."

Lu Yu smiled: "Of course, Xi'an, you are much smarter than me, and you must be improving faster than me." ”

"Uncle, you're the stupidest, and I'm the most witty, hehehe." Yan Xi'an asked Lu Yu again: "Uncle, what stage of cultivation have you reached now?" ”

"Let's go to the third stage." The mantra that appeared for the third time on the kitchen knife had disappeared, but the new mantra had not yet appeared, Lu Yu only knew that his cultivation was growing day by day, but it was not clear how far he was from the third breakthrough.

Yan Xi'an turned to look at Lu Yu, looked at it for a while, and then said, "Uncle, I want to compete with you." ”

"What are you trying?" But Lu Yu immediately said: "Don't try it, you must be amazing." ”

"I don't want to be better than my uncle, my uncle will always protect me. But I just want to know how much strength I have now. ”

Lu Yu thought for a while, and then said, "If you don't shake my hand hard, I'll try your strength." ”

"That's not good, it's going to hurt you." Yan Xi'an said seriously: "I have a lot of strength now, and I can easily carry my mother." ”

Lu Yu said, "Then why don't you carry me too?" ”

"I don't want it, uncle, you're so bad." Yan Xi'an's face flushed slightly.

Lu Yu thought to himself: "Let you carry me and try it, why is it broken?" He said, "Then if you punch me, I'll try my strength." ”

"It's even worse, you're going to get hurt." Yan Xi'an glanced at Lu Yu, and said, "Sure enough, stupid uncle, can't you stand and let me pull you hard?" ”

Lu Yu scratched his head and said with a smile: "Then I'll stand firm, you take my hand and pull hard." As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and let Yan Xi'an hold it.

Pulling Lu Yu's wrist, Yan Xi'an said with a smile: "Uncle, be careful, I'm going to work hard." ”

Lu Yu was about to say yes, but suddenly a strong force came from his arm, and he pulled him hard, pulling him forward and stumbling forward. Lu Yuda was shocked: "Xi'an, do you have so much strength?" ”

"Uncle, did you do it on purpose, do I have so much strength?"

"You didn't mean to, you do have a lot of strength." Although Lu Yu was a little caught off guard just now, Yan Xi'an's pull on him really surprised him very much.

"Really?" Yan Xi'an was very happy and asked Lu Yu: "Then who has more strength than me and Uncle Gao?" ”

Lu Yu thought for a while and said, "Now their strength is not as strong as yours." ”

Yan Xi'an was even more happy, and said with a smile: "Then let's go into the mountains to hunt in the future, and I won't hold you back." ”

"You're not holding back." Lu Yu thought to herself: "It turns out that this girl has always felt that going up to the mountain to hunt is a drag, so she wants to become stronger." ”

Yan Xi'an pouted and said, "No, I used to go up the mountain with you, and I couldn't do anything, so I just dragged my feet." But then she smiled again: "Not in the future, I can also kill wild boars and cut tigers in the future." ”

Lu Yu smiled slightly, thinking, "Even if you really encounter a tiger and a wild boar, I won't let you do it." ”

After comparing his strength, Yan Xi'an had to compare his steps with Lu Yu again. The two had already walked halfway, and there were still four or five miles away from Dunlin Town, and Yan Xi'an said that he would run all the way to see who would arrive first.

Lu Yu said that there was no need to compare, and it was quite tiring to run four or five miles. In fact, Lu Yu wanted to stay with Yan Xi'an for a while, and he didn't want to run back and forth.

Yan Xi'an said: "Then don't run, I'll jump for you." After speaking, Yan Xi'an squatted slightly, and then jumped forward with all his might.

This step is a leap of more than a foot. Lu Yu clapped his hands and smiled: "Xi'an, you jumped so far." ”

Yan Xi'an jumped to Lu Yu's side again, grabbed his left arm, and said with a smile: "Uncle, when I am no longer good, we will go to a far, far away place to play together, okay?" ”

"Okay. But I haven't been far before, so I don't know where I'm going. ”

Yan Xi'an leaned on Lu Yu, and the two walked forward slowly, she said as she walked: "We can go to Yangshan first, Yangshan is so big, we haven't gone to many places." ”

"Yangshan is very big, the places we have been to are only a corner of the mountain, and when you are free in the future, I will take you to places you have not been to."

Yan Xi'an said, "Uh-huh. In addition to the mountains, there are many other interesting places. Provincial capital, capital, seaside ...... There are so many fun places, and I have to go with my uncle. ”

Hearing Yan Xi'an say this, Lu Yu also yearned for it, thinking that if he could go to the end of the world hand in hand with Yan Xi'an, he would let himself be an immortal, but he didn't want to.
