Chapter Eighty-Nine: Laborious and thankless

Because the wound was healing, Lu Yu suddenly felt very hungry in his abdomen.

Just now, Yan Xi'an asked Lu Yu: "Uncle, you haven't eaten for a day, are you very hungry?" ”

Lu Yu smiled slightly and said, "I was about to say that I was hungry." ”

"Well, my mother has already made dinner, I'll bring it to you."

Lu Yu hurriedly said, "Don't serve it, I can get out of bed and eat." ”

"No, I won't let you get up." Yan Xi'an said to his younger brother again: "You are optimistic about the uncle, but you can't let him get up." With that, he turned and walked out of the room.

Yan Xi'an looked at Lu Yu with a strange expression, and suddenly said, "Uncle, why do I think my sister is a little better to you than to me?" ”

Lu Yu: "......"

Soon after, Yan Xi'an entered the room with a large bowl of rice, which was covered with a layer of fried pork and a few slices of cabbage.

Lu Yu sat up and stretched out his hand to take the rice bowl, but Yan Xi'an said, "You have a hand injury, I'll feed you." ”

"That's not necessary, I'll do it myself."

"You can't do it yourself, I'll feed you." Yan Xi'an didn't allow Lu Yu to say anything, picked up a piece of pork with chopsticks, and sent it to Lu Yu's mouth. Lu Yu's face was slightly red, he hesitated, but he still opened his mouth and ate the pork.

Yan Xiding looked at Lu Yu, then at Yan Xi'an, and suddenly said, "Men and women don't kiss." ”

"Hmph, I want you to take care of it." Yan Xi'an was very happy when he saw that Lu Yu was obediently willing to let him feed. After feeding a few more mouthfuls, Yan Xi'an thought that his younger brother was beside him, and it was indeed not good for him to feed Lu Yu all the time, so he said to Yan Xiding: "Okay, you come to feed the uncle." ”

"Good!" Yan Xiding immediately came over to take the rice bowl and chopsticks and feed Lu Yu to eat. Lu Yu didn't want to feed himself anymore, after all, with Xi Ding, he would be a little uncomfortable.

Lu Yu asked the sisters and brothers: "Are there many people who have died in the village?" ”

"Yes, listen to my father, more than 30 people died in your village, and many more were injured."

Lu Yu took a breath of cool air, he didn't expect that there would be so many dead and injured in the village overnight.

Yan Xiding said: "Fortunately, Uncle Da Yu, you rushed back in time, otherwise there would have been four more dead." ”

Lu Yu didn't dare to imagine what serious consequences would have if he hadn't come back in time last night. He suddenly felt very strange, he found the dragon crocodiles that day, because they had not yet entered the village, they made a noise on the mountain, why yesterday until they entered the village, this group of dragon crocodiles has always been silent.

After thinking for a while, Lu Yu suddenly thought of an extremely terrifying possibility: these fierce beasts seemed to have some wisdom. It is likely that they gave up attacking the village that day because they accidentally screamed and made the villagers take precautions.

Lu Yu thought again: "When I went out of Lu Mingde's house last night, I obviously saw that many dragon crocodiles had already left the village, but there were still two left in my house, and the dragon crocodile killed by Lu Yu breaking the upper and lower jaws was much stronger than the ordinary dragon crocodile. These two dragon crocodiles, could it be that they came to their own home? ”

Lu Yu suddenly felt that these fierce beasts were terrifying, very terrifying.

Seeing that Lu Yu was silent in thought, Yan Xi'an asked him what he was thinking.

Lu Yu didn't want to say that his family was worried, and said: "I'm thinking, those villagers who have lost their relatives are going to be very sad." ”

"Alas, Uncle Da Yu, you don't have to worry about others, there are many people in your village scolding you."

"Scold me?" Lu Yu frowned: "Why are you scolding me?" ”

Yan Xiding said again: "Some people said that you and the monster entered the village, but you didn't remind everyone. ”

"But I didn't know they were in the village." Speaking of this, Lu Yu smiled bitterly again: "They don't believe me, so I don't have to say it." ”

Yan Xiding fed Lu Yu a mouthful of food, and said, "Uncle Da Yu, you don't know, they scolded you fiercely." If it weren't for Uncle Gao and the village chief surnamed Fang, who would have stopped them, someone would have wanted to come and beat you. ”

Lu Yu's heart instantly froze, and he was silent for a while, and then asked the sisters and brothers: "They didn't embarrass you, did they?" ”

"They really wanted to, but fortunately, Uncle Gao stopped them." Yan Xiding looked angry and scolded: "In your village, more than half of the white-eyed wolves. ”

Yan Xi'an asked his younger brother not to be verbose all the time, and Lu Yu didn't eat a few bites of a bowl of rice.

After eating, Yan Jibai and his wife also came to visit Lu Yu and asked him if his wound was better. Lu Yu said that it was much better, he had to get up and go back to his room. Lu Yu has been sleeping in the utility room next to the kitchen, there is only a small wooden bed in the utility room, and the white father and son will definitely not be able to squeeze in.

Lu Yu insisted on getting up, and at this time, Fang Daping and Lao Gao Ludi came over.

The three of them knew that Lu Yu was injured, and they had already come to see it once during the day. Lao Gao Lu Di and Lu Yu have hunted countless times, but they have never seen Lu Yu injured.

Lao Gao and Lu Di's homes were not attacked by the dragon crocodile last night, Fang Daping's family entered one, but their family of three hid, and the dragon crocodile was killed by Lu Yu before finding them.

The three of them greeted Lu Yu's injury, and Fang Daping said again: "Da Yu, this time our village has lost you again." ”

Lu Yu smiled: "What do you owe me?" It's up to a few of you, otherwise Brother Yan and I will be in a bad situation. ”

"Ugh." Fang Daping also sighed: "I don't know what to say, this group of things." ”

Lu Di was younger, and his temper was a little rushing, he said: "When Da Yu's injury is healed, who dare to come to the group of people to be verbose?" Those who died in the family didn't think about it, if Lu Yu hadn't rushed over to drive away the beast, would their family still be alive? ”

Lu Yu shook his head: "Forget it, there's nothing to say, it's a big deal to have this kind of thing in the future, I don't care." ”

"This ......" Fang Daping was a little panicked and said, "If you don't care about Da Yu, at least half of our village will die." ”

Lu Yu smiled and thought, "If I really die halfway, then maybe no one will come to scold me." ”

Fang Daping said again: "Da Yu, you don't have to be too aggrieved, I'll go back and talk about those people, they are too conscienceless." ”

"What do you say?" Lu Di said: "I also heard that some people want Lu Yu to lose money." ”

"Hahahaha......" Lu Yu laughed out loud, he smiled and said, "Who wants me to pay?" How much to lose? The four members of the Yan family were also in the room, and they didn't know that someone wanted Lu Yu to lose money, and they were all angry when they heard Lu Di say this.

"Don't take these words seriously, who dares to ask you to lose money, I will be the first to refuse." Fang Daping persuaded Lu Yu: "There are people who don't have a conscience, but there are also many people who think that you Da Yu is good." ”

Lu Yu nodded and did not speak.

Fang Daping and the three of them didn't know what to say, so they all advised Lu Yu to take care of his injuries and not think about it.

Before the three of them left, Fang Daping said again: "Da Yu, what kind of crocodile did you kill a total of thirty-four this time, what are you going to do with these corpses?" ”

Lao Gao added: "It's not clear whether this dragon crocodile meat can be eaten, but that skin is a good thing, tough and strong." ”

Lu Yu originally wanted to sleep, but he didn't want it, but thinking of the "hateful face" of some people in the village, he asked, "Is this thing mine?" ”

"Of course what you killed, of course it's yours, those people can't scold you while asking for the prey you killed." Fang Daping said: "Thirty-four dragon crocodiles are all in Lao Gao's house, what do you think we should do?" ”

"Skinned the animal, let's divide it. If the dragon crocodile meat can be eaten, everyone in the village will get a little. "There is no shortage of meat in Lu Yu's family now, but thinking of the leather of the dragon crocodile, it is difficult for even ordinary knives to cut through, and knowing that this is a good thing, he can't give it to that group of white-eyed wolves.

Lao Gao said: "That's okay, I'll try a little bit if the meat can be eaten first, and I'll peel the animal skin tomorrow." ”

Lu Yu returned to his room, rested for the night, and woke up the next day, the wound on his right arm had already healed. The four members of the Yan family were secretly surprised to see Lu Yu's injuries healing so quickly.

Lu Yu was carrying a kitchen knife to Lao Gao's house, and the skins of more than thirty dragon crocodiles, Lao Gao couldn't peel them off alone.

Walking in the village, Lu Yu saw that many people had white cloths hanging in front of their homes, and the village was crying endlessly. Lu Yu originally hated the villagers who complained about him and hated him, but when he saw the scene of the village full of paper money and people mourning, the resentment in his heart couldn't help but disperse.

Thirty-four dragon crocodiles of various sizes were piled up in a corner of the courtyard of Lao Gao's house, and the blood of undried beasts was flowing all over the ground.

Seeing Lu Yu, Lao Gao was also taken aback, and he asked Lu Yu: "Your injury is healed so quickly?" ”

"Almost." Skinning animals Lu Yu is not as skilled as Lao Gao, but he is better than his kitchen knife is sharp, and his strength is also greater, both of them are very quick with their hands and feet, and they work together, and they can peel off all the dragon crocodile skins in one morning.

Lao Gao told Lu Yu that the meat of the dragon crocodile can also be eaten, but the taste is a little worse, dry and hard.

"Just eat it." Lu Yu said: "You keep more, and give more to Lu Di, the village chief, and give the rest away." ”

"Hey, Lu Yu, you're always kind."

In fact, Lu Yu is not entirely kind, there are too many dragon crocodiles, and even these few families can't eat so much meat.

Lao Gao said: "These crocodile skins are really good things, made into boots and hats, which are sure to be strong, waterproof, and warm." ”

"Yes, it was so cold last year, if I had a pair of leather boots, I wouldn't have frostbite on my feet." Lu Yu will not have chilblains, he remembers that Yan Xiding's feet were frozen like steamed buns last year.

"Actually, this hard leather is also very good for armor."

"yes." Lu Yu thought again: "If there are really robbers entering the village, the villagers will wear armor made of dragon crocodile skin, and it will be much more advantageous to fight." It's just that this group of cowards in the village only dare to bully themselves, and there are really robbers who have entered the village, and it is estimated that everyone is afraid of the same as pheasants (pheasants encounter enemies, if they feel that they have no chance to escape, they will hide their heads and expose their bodies). ”

went home for lunch, in the afternoon Lu Yu called Lu Di, Lao Gao called the butcher Sun Daqing, and the four of them shaved the meat on the dragon crocodile together. The dragon crocodile is similar to the lizard crocodile, although the body size is not small, but a dragon crocodile has its head and tail removed and its limbs removed, and there is not much meat that can be eaten.

However, there are more than 30 dragon crocodiles, which add up to a lot of meat, 1,000 catties or hundreds of catties are definitely there, and there are seventy or eighty households in Yangshan Village, each of which can share one or twenty catties. Although meat is not considered food, it is better and more useful than food.

The meat was taken by Fang Daping from door to door, and he also brought dozens of catties to Lu Yu, Fang Daping thought, although Lu Yu said that he didn't want this meat, but the dragon crocodile was killed by him, and he couldn't really not give it to him at all.

Dragon crocodile skin Lu Yu took seven or eight sheets, for him, this is a better thing than dragon crocodile meat. However, Lu Yu didn't know how to nitrate, and there were no such things as sulfur and manganese at home, so he asked Lao Gao to help deal with it. Lao Gao is not a professional hunter, but after all, he has been hunting for more than ten years, and he still knows how to deal with the fur of wild beasts.
