The old man, who was the head of the village, greeted Lu Li and walked into the wooden house.

Nima ......

He was dumbfounded as soon as he entered, although the stench was much less than the outside, but it still had an unbearable smell of sweat and rot. Lu Li once read a paper because of the Black Death, which elaborated on the description of the living environment of ordinary people in the Middle Ages, but he finally felt shallow on paper, and if he didn't see this harsh environment with his own eyes, he really couldn't imagine how bad it was.

In the dark and damp wooden house, a few rats slipped past Lu Li's feet in such a grand manner, the turbid air seemed to have not been ventilated for hundreds of years, and the waste that was known to be garbage at a glance was piled up in the house, not only did it not be cleaned up, but it was just piled up there, are you going to accumulate fertilizer?

Lu Liden had an urge to escape from here.

The old man was very hospitable, asked Lu Li to sit down on the edge of a rickety chair, and brought him a bowl of water.

I'll it!

The bowl is a wooden bowl, but it hasn't been brushed for a long time, and it's dirtier than the one found in the garbage heap.

It's okay if your bowl is so dirty, this water is too much, right?

It's not clear water, but what the hell is a floating object floating on the water? Why does it look more and more like a dead flea?

Lu Li was a little speechless, and knocked next to the bowl of water: "Village Chief, you seem to have a problem with this water." ”

"Oh?"

The old man took the bowl of water and looked at it, "Oh, there's a flea." ”

Without hesitation, he stretched out his right hand that was covered with mud and was about to stink, fished out the fleas and threw them into his mouth, and then handed the wooden bowl to Lu Li, opening his scattered teeth and smiling: "Come on, drink." ”

Drink your mother's head!

Lu Li suspected that if he really drank this bowl of water, it was estimated that he would die violently within half an hour.

Without looking at the water on the table, he quietly immediately changed the topic, "Village chief, I don't know how to get out from here?"

"Go out? Do you mean you want to leave the Crack Forest? Oh, that's not easy, you go far into the Crack Forest, and the exit from here to the Crack Forest is more than 40 leagues ......."

"More than 40 leagues?"

Lu Li thought for a while, the words spoken by the village chief were originally in English, but when it came to the length of the distance, the "lig" he said was the Portuguese légua, according to his common sense, the Portuguese system of 1 lig is about 6000 meters, so if you calculate it, then more than 40 leagues is equivalent to more than 240 kilometers.

No wonder he couldn't see the end of this forest.

“...... So it's hard to get out of here. ”

The village chief shook his head: "What's more, there are a lot of gang ghosts in the crack forest, those gang ghosts who like to eat people are too dangerous, and it is easy for you to encounter misfortune on the road alone." ”

A man-eating okani?

Lu Li's spirits perked up, and this was obviously the beginning of the game to show the setting.

"But fortunately, 5 leagues east from here, there is a road, which is specially opened up by the Dodoro Kingdom, especially for pedestrians and merchants to hurry, on the first day of each month, there will be soldiers sent by the Dodoro Kingdom to escort the merchants, if you rush over to wait, you will always wait until they come, then you can leave the forest safely. ”

The village chief pinched his fingers and calculated: "Exactly, one day will be the first day of the next month, and it will take about two days to wait for those merchants to arrive here, and you should be able to catch up." ”

"Thank you so much. ”

Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief: "Although I am from the Duoduoluo Kingdom, I only pass through the Duoduoluo Kingdom, and I don't know much about this place, so thank you very much for your help." ”

He began to flicker again.

"Haha, young traveler, you need not be grateful, it is the glory of the goddess to help others, you can sleep here tonight, and then go on your way tomorrow. ”

The village chief stood up, "Gehr is out hunting, he won't be back in a few days, his house is just right for you to sleep for the night, I don't think he will mind that." ”

It was indeed very dark outside, it should be almost night, Lu Li naturally would not object, nodded and walked out behind the village chief.

The hunter's house was much smaller than the village chief's hut, and it wasn't too far from here, and the only thing that reassured Lu Li was that it didn't smell like anything when he pushed the door in.

The furnishings of the house were also very simple, a few stools, a wooden table, a large wooden box for clothes, small pots of ceramics, several wooden bowls, wooden cups, linen towels and farm tools.

But there was no real bed, only a straw bed spread on the ground in the corner.

"Young traveler, you can rest there for the night, and I'll have Yali bring you food. ”

The village chief pointed to the straw, and then went out, seemingly not wanting to talk to Lu Liduo.

Yali, I guess it's that girl.

Lu Li walked around the wooden house, and he would rather not sleep all night than lie on this straw bed and sleep. His eyes were so sharp that he immediately noticed that there were a lot of rats on the ground, and that there were fleas passing by from time to time, and that sleeping here would have to endure the irritation of fleas and rats crawling on you.

He didn't have the willpower to endure it.

"Mr. Traveler, I've brought you food. ”

It was the girl who walked in, "Hurry up and eat, you won't be able to see anything when it's dark." ”

In this harsh environment, there is no oil lighting at night, so naturally I can only sleep at night.

Seeing the girl holding a dirty wooden bowl on the table, Lu Li walked over curiously to take a look, and suddenly felt that it was better to have this curiosity gone.

It's a bowl of mush, maybe ergot or broad beans, stirred and boiled with onions, spinach, etc., but it doesn't smell like the food, anyway, it has an indescribable smell.

In view of the poor sanitary environment in the village chief's house beforehand, maybe this bowl of paste was directly scooped up by the old man and tasted it, Lu Li didn't dare to eat this kind of thing, so he shook his head: "Thank you, but I'm not hungry, let's eat this bowl for you." ”

"Not hungry? really?"

The girl was stunned, "This is a rare delicacy." ”

Your village chief went to the toilet and wiped his buttocks directly with his hands, maybe his hands were not washed, and then he cooked a bowl of paste by the way, and Lu Li resolutely refused to eat it unless he was crazy.

Seeing Lu Li's resolute demeanor, the girl thought that he was really not hungry, so she picked up the wooden bowl and left.

"This era may be even worse than I imagined. ”

Lu Li glanced at the village that was gradually shrouded in darkness, lowered his head and sighed.

He used to think that the Matrix had taken all the food away, and he hadn't paid much attention to it, but now he realized that the Matrix was forcing him to eat.

Do you starve to death if you don't eat?

Then he would rather die than give in!
