Chapter 241: Training the Villagers

Li Yue nodded towards Zhao Erzhu and said, "Don't be too sad, the house can be rebuilt if it is gone, it is important to save your life first." ”

Listening to Li Yue's words, Zhao Erzhu said lightly, what Li Yue said was right, now it is true that he must save his life first, otherwise everything is empty talk, just looking at the smoke under the mountain, how can he not be sad?

Li Yue sighed and continued, "I have something I want you to help do. ”

Zhao Erzhu listened to Li Yue's words, withdrew his gaze looking at the smoke under the mountain, looked at Li Yue, and said, "Cousin just commands, what do you need me to do?" ”

Li Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, "Now I don't know if there are any Xianbei barbarians under the mountain, we can't do anything on the mountain, but there are some things that can be done." ”

"In the past few days, you have also had a lot of contact with these folks, most of them should have known each other, among these people, select a dozen strong and powerful men, preferably bold and more righteous and responsible, and then give each of them a bow and crossbow, and go to the small lake to practice archery."

Zhao Erzhu nodded and responded, "There is no problem with this, it's just that this bow and crossbow will not be used by everyone." ”

Li Yue said, "You help me choose a good person first, go over there after breakfast, and then move the targets in the yard to the side of the small lake." ”

Listening to Li Yue's words, Zhao Erzhu responded, "Okay, I'll go now." ”

When Zhao Erzhu was busy, Li Yuebian went to comfort these villagers and enlightened them on how to save their lives now.

After all, human nature is complicated, and Li Yue is worried that some impulsive and extreme people will rush down the mountain to fight the Xianbei army, which will not only cost them their lives, but may also expose them, so that they will also suffer.

After that, Li Yue entered the study to check whether there was anything wrong with the injured and bedridden Zhao Zhutou, Zhang Langzhong knew that this person must be quite important, and he had been taking care of it carefully, Li Yue saw that his godfather had been taking care of him, and said, "It's hard work." ”

Looking at Li Yue's tired face, Zhang Lang said in pain, "What's so hard about this, it's you, your body is not very good, but you can't toss yourself badly." ”

Li Yue showed a smile and said, "Don't worry, godfather, I'll pay attention, then I'll get busy first." ”

Zhang Langzhong nodded, "Go ahead." Looking at Li Yue's turned back, Zhang Langzhong sighed in his heart, at such a young age, he has such a mind, and he has no hesitation to carry these responsibilities that do not belong to him on his shoulders.

Li Yue did not leave the laboratory, but went to the experimental table by the window, sat down at the table, took a pen and paper and wrote there or lowered her head in contemplation.

Zhang Langzhong glanced over there from time to time, and he didn't bother, and his heart was very complicated, he looked at Li Yue because of the influence of Li Yue's "mysterious master", he was very curious about what kind of person this Li Yue's "mysterious master" was, and he could teach a strange woman like Li Yue in a short time, but he was destined to be disappointed, and he would not be able to see Li Yue's "mysterious master" in this life.

It wasn't until Xu Jinniang brought Li Yue a meal that Li Yue folded the paper on which she wrote and painted and put it in her arms, there were too many people in the family, so Xu Jinniang directly sent Li Yue and Zhang Langzhong's food over here.

Aunt Zhang and Mrs. Zhang also came over with dishes and chopsticks, Li Yue emptied the experimental table and moved it directly to the middle of the room, and everyone gathered around the table to eat in the laboratory, because Li Yue had greeted everyone in the laboratory before, and no one was allowed to come casually, so everyone regarded the two rooms here as Li Yue's private space, unless there was something, few people generally ran to this side of the laboratory, and they basically ate here.

After breakfast, Li Yue helped her mother clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and was heading to the hall over there, when she saw her cousin Zhao Erzhu in the yard, looking at her side, as if she was waiting for herself.

Xu Jinniang took the dishes and chopsticks in Li Yue's hand and said, "It seems that there is something to find you, I'll clean it up, you can go over and take a look." ”

Li Yue nodded and went to Erzhu's cousin.

There are a lot of women living here now, all of them are diligent country women, and it's not that no one works, but because Xu Jinniang is the owner here, out of gratitude and flattery to Xu Jinniang, they will also rush to do the work in Xu Jinniang's hands, Li Yue is not very worried that her mother will be too busy.

Zhao Erzhu didn't hesitate when he saw Li Yue passing, and said directly, "Xiaoyue, everyone has already gone over and waited." ”

Li Yue touched the bow and crossbow tied to his arm and the homemade quiver on his calf, nodded and responded, "Okay, let's go over now." ”

Zhao Erzhu saw Li Yue's movements just now, and was a little puzzled, not understanding why Li Yue had to touch his cotton sleeves and touch his cotton trouser legs, but because of the difference between men and women, it seemed that it was a little inappropriate for him to ask, so he dispelled the idea of asking, and followed Li Yue out of the courtyard and went to the small lake.

In the past by the lake, Li Yue found that there were more than a dozen people, and there were at least thirty or forty people gathered by the small lake, Li Yue looked at Zhao Erzhu suspiciously, and Zhao Erzhu said embarrassedly, "Everyone else is here to watch, and those ten over there are." ”

Li Yue nodded, did not speak, Zhao Erzhu was worried that Xiao Yue felt that he had not done things well, and he was busy leading the way in front with a weak heart, taking Li Yue over, when doing the right thing, Zhao Erzhu always felt that Xiao Yue seemed to have changed as a person, and there was a domineering spirit that made people unconsciously want to surrender, which made Zhao Erzhu feel a little awkward, and he felt domineering in a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.

When he arrived at the location of the dozen or so people, Li Yue stood in front of him, his eyes swept over those people one by one, and those people couldn't help but stand up with bated breath, still looking at Li Yue.

After sweeping a few people, Li Yue spoke, "I believe you already know the purpose of I asked you to come here, to practice archery, since you have been selected, then from now on, you have a responsibility, a responsibility to protect all the people on our Daliang Mountain, you must let yourself shoulder this sense of responsibility, have the spirit of dedication and sacrifice, and always remember that your responsibility is not only to protect your relatives, but also so many villagers who live on this Daliang Mountain." ”

Li Yue's voice was not loud, and even a little low, but there seemed to be a calm and righteous aura in that tone, infecting the few people in front of him and the people around him.

Among the dozens of onlookers around, someone suddenly stood up and said, "Miss Xiaoyue, we can too." ”

"Yes, we can too."

Li Yue looked at the dozens of people who stood up, thought for a while, and then said, "Our bow and crossbow are limited, and archery is also based on talent, since you are all willing to join, so let's do it, if you are willing, come and stand up, try it first, if you have talent, you can practice archery, and if you can't, you can practice swordsmanship." ”

Most of the onlookers stood in the line, and of course, there were dozens of people who hesitated and wandered, watching most of them pass, as if they didn't feel that it was good to pass, and those who struggled in their hearts didn't want to go over.

Li Yue looked at the dozen or so people and said, "You don't have to use a sword or dance to protect your relatives, if you don't want to participate, you don't have to force yourself, you can also do a good job in logistics and take care of everyone's diet and daily life." ”

When the dozen or so people heard Li Yue say this, a relieved smile finally appeared on their faces, and Zhao Erzhu on the side waved his hand at them and said, "Go back, what you have to do, the heavy work that women can't do is handed over to you." ”

Listening to Zhao Erzhu's words, those people quickly left and went back to the courtyard.

When those people left, Li Yue said to the twenty or so people left here, "Now, I'll teach you how to use this bow and crossbow first." ”

After speaking, he said to Zhao Erzhu, "Cousin, you go to the cave and get a few bows and crossbows and iron arrows." ”

When Zhao Erzhu took out the bow and crossbow, Li Yue took the bow and crossbow and explained to everyone the structure of the bow and crossbow, how to load and shoot arrows, how to aim and so on.

After the explanation, Li Yue said, "Cousin, you will give everyone the bow and crossbow to take a look and study it." Everyone pay attention to the special precautions I just told you, and don't accidentally hurt your companions. I'll show you first, and then you will shoot five arrows each, and if you get a good result, you will stay in archery, and if you are poor, you will learn swordsmanship. ”

Zhao Erzhu was about to hand the bow and arrow in his hand to Li Yue, but he didn't want Li Yue to bend down suddenly, so he actually pulled out an iron arrow from his trouser leg, and then scratched his sleeve, and there was actually a bow and crossbow tied to his arm.

At this time, Zhao Erzhu finally understood why Xiao Yue touched his sleeve first and then touched his trouser leg in the courtyard before, it turned out to be this reason.

And all Li Yue's movements were just a blink of an eye, and the center of the bullseye in the distance was firmly inserted with arrows.

Everyone's eyes widened, a little incredulous, and then they looked at Li Yue's eyes full of admiration.

Li Yue didn't notice everyone's admiration when they looked at him at this time, but was still teaching seriously, "Being able to shoot the bull's-eye is a little small, but the enemy won't stand still and let you shoot, excellent archery skills are able to shoot moving targets." ”

Li Yuebian said, he had already reloaded an arrow, bent over the ground to find a stone, threw it into the distance, and then raised his arm to aim at the arrow, the action was done in one go, the iron arrow was shot on the stone, and with a "bang" sound, sparks burst out, and the stone that was not very hard broke into several pieces, and fell with the iron arrow.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were not only wide-eyed, but also their mouths were slightly open, looking at Li Yue as if they were looking at a monster.
