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.

Mrs. Yan cut off a few taels of dragon crocodile meat, soaked it in boiling water for a quarter of an hour, chopped it and then added dried chili peppers and tender shallots to stir-fry.

Lu Yu has a lot of meat at home, so he only left a few catties of dragon crocodile meat, and the rest was mentioned in Zhenshan. It will take a few days to nitrate the crocodile skin, and then send some when it is ready.

Early that morning, Lu Yu arrived at Zhang's house and saw five or six strangers in their house.

In fact, these people are not completely strangers, one of them is burly, with a long and dense beard, this person is actually the head of the regimental training that he had seen in Fang Daping's house before.

These people were shouting at Zhang Qiye's family, and the Zhang family was trembling and very afraid.

Lu Yu asked these people what they were here for.

When the long-bearded man saw Lu Yu, his face changed, but this time he didn't seem to be the one who took the lead, so he didn't take the lead in speaking.

It was another man who spoke, short and stout, with a big head, a little similar to the big head of Wang in Menhe Village.

The cottage king looked at Lu Yu with disdain and asked him what he was doing.

Lu Yu said: "I am a relative of this family, you can go." ”

"Lao Tzu is the head of the town's guard regiment, who are you calling to go?" This little man is actually the head of the escort regiment.

Lu Yu had already roughly guessed the identities of these people, and he asked, "Your boss, isn't that surnamed Lin?" ”

"Mr. Lin is our chief treasurer, and this town is under my control." The cottage king was triumphant, and asked Lu Yu again: "Who are you?" Get out of here. ”

"I don't get out, you get out." Lu Yu put down his things and asked the Zhang family not to be afraid.

The king of cottages is bold and not blindly reckless, otherwise he would not be the small leader of this side. He looked at Lu Yu carefully a few times, and then asked the people around him, "Who is this kid?" Do you know each other? ”

The long-bearded man knew, he glanced at Lu Yu, and whispered: "Li Tou'er, this is Lu Yu from Yangshan Village, I dealt with a boss when I was doing things." ”

"Oh, it's the Yangshan Lu Yu who 'kills tigers with his bare hands and splits a group of thieves with a single knife'?"

Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that he was still a little famous, this Li Datou had actually heard of him, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

Li Datou said: "Since it's you, then I'll give you some face, and I won't accept the monthly money of this family." It seems that Lu Yu's reputation still has a somewhat deterrent effect on these people.

Lu Yu smiled: "Then thank you." But please don't bother this family in the future. ”

Li Datou frowned, and asked the long-bearded man again: "This Lu Yu, really has such great ability?" ”

The long-bearded man hesitated for a moment and whispered, "He does have some ability. ”

Li Datou looked at Lu Yu and said, "My brother said that you are very powerful...... paused and continued: "I want to try it today." Although Li Datou's tone was still not very polite, at least he didn't call himself "Lao Tzu" anymore.

Lu Yu thought about it, if he didn't make a move today, he was afraid that he would not be able to completely suppress the "head of the guard regiment" in Dunlin Town. So he asked, "How do you try it?" ”

Li Datou pointed at his two subordinates and shouted to them, "You go and play with this Mr. Lu." "Several of Li Datou's subordinates, except for the long-bearded man, have been gearing up for a long time, and they all feel that Lu Yu is white and thin, not like a guy who can fight. Listening to the boss's orders, the two subordinates immediately rushed towards Lu Yu one left and one right.

Lu Yu didn't want to make enemies with these people, because Lu Ming's family still lived in the town. He took one of the two men in each hand, pulled them down, and they fell to the ground.

Although the two of them were not injured, they were very shocked when they saw that the other party easily and quickly pressed themselves down, and they also understood that they were far from being the opponent's opponents. When he got up from the ground, he stepped aside, not daring to go up again.

Li Datou and Lu Ming were also shocked, and they didn't see how Lu Yu moved, and the two tall men lay on the ground.

Li Datou nodded: "Okay, Mr. Lu's martial arts are very high, I admire it." ”

Lu Yu didn't know martial arts, but he didn't say anything, smiled, and said lightly: "Those guys, please." ”

Li Datou left with his subordinates convincingly, Lu Ming and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhang Qiye and his wife couldn't stop thanking them.

Lu Yu was a little uncomfortable when he was thanked, and asked them: "Do these people come to ask for money every month?" ”

"They will come from five miles away to ask for money and food, and they only come once a month." Lu Ming sighed: "We have already paid more than two hundred taels of silver before and after, and we have also given several stones of food, these people are insatiable and endless." ”

Zhang Qiye also said: "I lost Lu Yu today, otherwise I will bleed again." ”

Lu Ming said again: "Brother, I don't know yet, why are you so famous?" Those people know about you. ”

Lu Yu smiled and did not speak.

Mrs. Zhang asked Ah Li to hold her granddaughter, and said that she was going to cook, leaving Lu Yu here for breakfast. The daughters and children of the Zhang family were even more frightened today.

Lu Yu didn't refuse, he wanted to inquire about the situation in the town again. Lu Yu remembered the dragon crocodile meat he brought again, and said, "A group of wild beasts came to the village the night before yesterday, and many people died in our village. ”

The people in Dunlin Town had also heard about the fact that wild beasts had entered the village in Yangshan Village, and Lu Ming hurriedly asked, "Brother, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, I've got a little bit of an injury, I'm okay now." Lu Yu handed the meat to Mrs. Zhang. There's a lot of meat, and they have to salt it as soon as possible.

Lu Ming said: "Alas, the countryside is not safe now, and this life is not easy." ”

Zhang Qiye was even more worried about whether those people from the escort group would come to his house again in the future, and he said, "Lu Yu, do you want to stay at our house for a few days?" You two can talk. ”

Lu Yu understood what Zhang Qiye meant, he shook his head and said, "I still have people at home, and I have something to do, so I won't live here." Smiling, he added, "Don't worry, those people won't come again." ”

Zhang Qiye was not at ease, but he did not persuade again.

Lu Ming said with a smile: "Brother, your hand just now is very handsome, I think a few of them can't beat you together, and they definitely won't come again." ”

But as soon as Lu Ming finished saying this, Li Datou came back with a few people.

Lu Ming's family was taken aback, and Lu Yu was also a little surprised, asking them what they were doing when they came back.

This time, Li Datou was very polite, and as soon as he came in, he said with a smile: "Hello Mr. Lu." ”

Lu Yu nodded: "It's okay for you." ”

Li Datou asked his subordinates to take out a package, untied it on the table, and inside was actually more than a dozen ingots of silver with white flowers. Lu Yu looked at each other, not knowing what kind of drama Li Datou wanted to sing.

Li Datou smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, we are all rough people, so I won't be polite to you." I'm here to ask Mr. Lu, and we'll help. ”

"Go to your club to help?" Lu Yu shook his head and said, "Then there is no need, I am a farmer in the countryside, and I can't help you anything." ”

Li Datou said: "Mr. Lu, don't be in a hurry to refuse, don't worry, as long as you enter this association, our shopkeeper Lin promises to treat Mr. Lu politely and reuse you." ”

"You're welcome, it's just that I'm used to being free and don't want to join your club." Lu Yu smiled slightly, and said: "But don't worry, you have made a fortune in this town, I am farming in Yangshan Village, and everyone's well water does not interfere with river water, and please don't embarrass my brother's family." ”

Li Datou said: "Needless to say, the Zhang family will definitely not come again in the future, and we will also protect the safety of their family." ”

Lu Yu arched his hand: "Then thank you." ”

Li Datou persuaded Lu Yu a few more times, but Lu Yu naturally would not agree. In the end, Li Datou had no choice but to leave with the silver. Zhang Qiye and the others didn't dare to accept the money, but Lu Yu said that it was not theirs in the first place, and they accepted it.

Seeing that Li Datou and his gang were very respectful to Lu Yu, Zhang Qiye and Lu Ming were a lot more relieved, and for the time being, it seemed that they didn't have to worry about asking for money and food again.

Breakfast was corn tortillas and corn paste, and the only dish was the dragon crocodile meat that Lu Yu brought in the morning. Mrs. Zhang did not stir-fry the dragon crocodile meat like Mrs. Yan did, but after passing it through boiling water and then frying it in boiling oil. The dragon crocodile meat in this way is also quite delicious, but it will feel a little too tough when you bite into it.

The tortillas and fried meat were dry, and Mrs. Zhang cooked a large pot of soup, which contained only a few leaves of vegetables that were not very fresh.

Lu Yu decided to send some vegetables over next time, and it was best to bring some more vegetable seeds. The first time Lu Yu came to Zhang's house, he felt that their yard was so big, it would be a pity not to plant anything.

Now there are no seeds to sell in the town's farm tool store, but fortunately, Lu Yu and Mrs. Yan have left a lot of vegetable seeds. Radish cabbage, pumpkin, winter melon, cucumber, beans and eggplant are all available, and some tomatoes are also left.

After eating breakfast at Zhang's house, before going home, Zhang Qiye asked Lu Yu to take back the silver ingots brought by Li Datou. Lu Yu refused to ask for it, the Zhang family insisted on giving it, and after a long time of refusal, Lu Yu had to take half of it.

Now the silver is indeed not as valuable as before, and the silver brought by Li Datou is actually more than a hundred taels, and Lu Yu took fifty taels.

Back in Yangshan Village, entering the entrance of the village, when passing by the red clay field, Lu Yu saw many villagers sitting on the clay field basking in the sun.

The third grandfather was also present, and he stopped Lu Yu.
