1. Willing to be a troubled man
Lin Xun is a little melancholy now, not the disease-free moaning of the young man before the crossing, but the real sorrow after recognizing his current situation. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info because just now when he was carrying the rice bag as a laborer, the rice bag fell due to the force, and then the rice bag was cut by the broken iron sheet on the side, and the white rice was sprinkled on the ground.
Then, the half-elf overseer who was watching on the side directly knocked Lin Xun to the ground with a sharp whip, and the hot bones on his back made Lin Xun, who had never experienced such pain, curl up and convulse. Seeing that he didn't intend to let go of his supervisor so simply, what Lin Xun could do at the moment was to hold his head tightly and shrink into his body, and then try not to let himself cry, this is the last dignity.
He never thought of resisting, because after the soul passed through ten minutes ago, he received the shattered memories of his predecessor, and he no longer had the idea of resisting. His predecessor's body was already weak from a high fever to the point of brain death, but he still didn't dare to be lazy without completing today's labor tasks, because there were two openings in the house waiting for him to bring back food......
However, he reluctantly continued to work, and then after the current fork, Lin Xun's face buried in the crook of his arm was enduring infinite grievances and sadness to prevent himself from crying. Why, why is this happening, suddenly coming to such a world, and being so shameless to be able to empathize with the grief of those loved ones. Why, I have traveled back to myself three years ago, and the world is so sad?
Lin Xun was very aggrieved, but the half-elf overseer didn't want him to hide there. The half-elf, who didn't look tall, grabbed Lin Xun directly with one hand, his purple eyes stared at Lin Xun coldly, and his handsome face looked extremely hideous at this time, "You should know what a sin it is to waste food." ”
"I know, but please give me a chance and I'll collect all the scattered rice, please. Maybe it was the pain of the wound on his back, or maybe it was the weakness of the high fever that had not subsided before, Lin Xun always trembled a little uncontrollably when he spoke.
The half-elf didn't answer Lin Xun directly, he looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Let me let you go for the time being, your salary today is a fine." Before the heavy rain comes, you must carry this bag of rice to warehouse No. 4 without leaking a single grain, otherwise according to the law, I will kill you and you will only be locked up for two days. ”
After speaking, the half-elf stopped caring about Lin Xun and returned to the post of supervisor, he had to complete the handling of this batch of grain before the heavy rain came, if he couldn't complete the task, he would also take a lot of responsibility, otherwise he wouldn't let Lin Xun go so easily.
And Lin Xun dragged his weak body to lie in the place and hurriedly recovered the scattered rice grains, although he had never felt so miserable and wronged in life, but he had no time to express his emotions at the moment. Transporting this bag of rice to warehouse 4 with a lot of grains, otherwise the half-elf overseer would definitely kill him in order to vent his anger.
Lin Xun couldn't help but be glad that the rice bag was not cut open, although there were many rice grains on the ground, there were actually not many, and the roar after the collision of dark clouds in the sky kept coming into his ears, as if he was constantly urging him. He didn't have much to do, so he could only take off the only T-shirt on his body and tie a knot to use it as a temporary pocket, as for the opening of the rice bag...... Lin Xun took off his pants and sawed them into shorts on the iron sheet on the side, and then tied them with two open trouser legs as bandages and rice bags.
After exhausting all methods and strength, Lin Xun finally transported the bag of rice intact to the No. 4 warehouse one second before the rain fell on his head, and the half-elf guarding the door of the warehouse looked at him coldly and nodded boringly, indicating that this matter was revealed. Lin Xun, who had survived the disaster, leaned against the wall and smiled happily after putting away the rice bag, he felt that he had never been so happy, because ...... It's good to be alive.
Yes, it's good to be alive, and if you survive, everything still has a chance, even if the only pants become shorts, even if today's salary is not a grain of rice, but survive. But now that he has survived, there are some things he has to face. He must bring food back, it doesn't matter if he doesn't have anything to eat, but the seven-month-old niece at home hasn't eaten for almost two days, and if there is no food, she will definitely starve to death.
So, after picking the rice in the T-shirt into the rice jar one by one, he put it on his body regardless of the dust, and then he walked over to the half-elf overseer. "Lord Ymir, can you give me some food, just a little, my sister is dying of hunger. ”
Yes, Ymir, the name of the half-elf overseer, this is what his predecessor's memories told him, this morning he took over this grain carrying task despite a high fever, and if he successfully completed it he would be able to get 50 grams of rice, but unfortunately he messed up. As for why he was able to understand the half-elf from Tamar, it was because his predecessor was a militiaman before the cataclysm, and he was lucky enough to kill a goblin cannon fodder on the first day of the cataclysm with 56 and a half of the collected ones.
After killing the goblin, he succeeded in opening the template of the Apocalypse, the rules of the game set by Noah, who enveloped the entire earth. Killing an alien or in-sibling sapient creature and dealing more than 90% damage alone will give him experience, and then he will open the Apocalypse template. This thing will provide an initial boost of 20% of physical fitness when turned on normally, however, this boost is not achieved overnight, it requires a certain amount of energy replenishment and exercise to manifest perfectly.
Now Lin Xun can still have the strength to complete the work after the high fever has subsided, which is related to the fact that his predecessor spent a year and six months digesting the initial strengthening. Of course, since then, Lin Xun's Apocalypse template level has stayed at level 1 (20/100) experience, as he has become an outcast in enemy-occupied territory. As one of the two million outcasts in Yuezhou City, his ability to obtain this grain transportation work has a lot to do with his possession of the Apocalypse.
The Tamars like to hire them to open the Apocalypse template, because one of the most direct benefits is the ability to communicate, and Noah has such a wide range of uses for the Apocalypse template. No matter what planet you are on or what civilization you are, as long as both parties have an apocalypse template, you can communicate without barriers. Of course, this communication is limited to language, and words cannot be translated.
Therefore, because he was able to communicate, Lin Xun stood in front of Ymir and put forward his own requirements. And Ymir really didn't expect that this earthling, who had made a big mistake, would dare to ask him for food, so he sneered and stood up, he planned to tell this human what a defeated country is and what are the rules that a third-class citizen should follow.
"The password of the Divine Hidden Treasure, the password of an F-rank Divine Hidden Treasure, I will use this to exchange food with you. Ymir failed to teach the earthling, because his words were very tempting to him. A treasure hidden by the gods, even if it's just F-rank. "500g of rice, if you don't want to, I'll kill you, although then I'll be more troublesome. ”
"I've done my job, you can't kill me on the grounds that I'm wasting food, and if you want to kill me now, you'll be sent to the front, as cannon fodder to the front. So, it's not just a hassle for you. 1 kilogram of rice, this is my price, believe you know, if it weren't for my sister dying of starvation, I wouldn't have traded this. Lin Xun looked at Ymir's greedy eyes, and suddenly felt that the other party was not so terrible, and all the guys who wanted to seek benefits in themselves would not be terrible.
"Deal, though, I need to know the authenticity of that password, and you're going to tell me how I got it. After groaning, Ymir agreed to Lin Xun's conditions, 1 kilogram of rice, his own rations for two days, and their first-class citizens' wages were paid monthly, so it was not too difficult for him to produce this 1 kilogram of rice.
"I killed a goblin, and on the first day of the Cataclysm, you know, the odds of that extra reward were very high. Ymir looked at the smile on the corner of Lin Xun's mouth with some surprise, although it was just a goblin slave, but as an earthling, it was also very surprising that he could kill a goblin slave who was twice as strong as him.
Hearing this, Ymir had no doubts, he nodded and said, "The deal is established, I'll go get the grain." He wasn't worried that Lin Xun would deceive him, the entire city of Yuezhou, or the whole of South China, was under the control of the Tama people, and there was no possibility for these earthlings to flee to the motherland in the north, and in South China, where the flow of people was restricted, if the earthlings ran out of his designated area, those patrolling soldiers could kill them at will. Therefore, he was not worried that Lin Xun would lie to him, because Lin Xun would definitely not be able to escape.
How much does a kilogram of rice weigh? Lin Xun thought it was a kilogram before, but now, he felt that the rice in his arms could suppress all his fears and worries. There's food, finally. Mu Yao and he hadn't eaten for three days, and three days ago they fed the last piece of bread crumbs mixed with water to Ah Li, and they had run out of food since then. Today, forced to starve to death, he forced himself out to work despite his high fever, and then gave Lin Xun the opportunity to cross over.
In the memory of her predecessor, Mu Yao was the same as in her original memory. She is so cute, so kind, the girl who keeps calling his childhood sweetheart Lin Xun's brother. And Ah Li...... Ali is the daughter of his cousin Lin Wei, a future fox girl's superior half-orc. It was a tragic product of the cataclysm, but her cousin gave birth to her, and then chose to commit suicide after she was weaned......
Lin Xun felt that his predecessor had never complained, because all that was left in his memory was Lin Xun's missing of his cousin and self-blame for himself. He has always blamed himself for not protecting his cousin to let her go through such a tragedy, and he has always blamed himself for being useless, so that his weak cousin chose to commit suicide in order not to drag them down......
Dragging his feet, drenched in the rain that had temporarily fallen after the heavy rain, he finally came to a small village on the outskirts of the city, which was one of the more than 200 untouchable areas in Yuezhou City. The Tamar people do not allow the weak and lowly earthlings to live in the city, and Yuezhou, which was chosen as the new capital of the Tamar people, only allows citizens of the second class and above to live in the city. Third-class citizens like him are only allowed to enter when they are offered jobs.
Dilapidated brick houses and sheds, Lin Xun walked to a narrow bungalow, and opened the door with a key without knocking. The house is not big, less than ten square meters, and this is also for the sake of watching Lin Xun as the opener of the apocalypse template. Lin Xun, who opened the door happily, was about to say hello to Mu Yao, who was left behind, but at this moment, he almost let go of the rice bag in his hand in shock.
The hair is deliberately scattered, and although the face is smeared with a lot of charcoal ash, the peugeot facial features can still be seen to be a beauty. Although it is a little green and tender, the bud-like temperament is the most refreshing. However, when such an innocent girl unbuttoned her shirt at this moment and breastfed a more petite baby with her tender breasts, Lin Xun didn't know how to describe the impulse she had at that moment.
Resisting the urge to take another look, he used all his perseverance to force himself to turn away. Then he raised the cloth bag in his right hand and smiled awkwardly: "Yaoyao, look, my brother got food today." ”
Mu Yao looked at Lin Xun for two seconds, and then suddenly woke up after he turned around with difficulty. Then he tied his shirt in a panic, and his pretty face covered by charcoal ash couldn't hide the redness. She explained in a panic: "That, it's Ah Li who has been hungry and crying, and I don't have anything for her to eat, so that's it, she won't cry anymore......"
The voice of the explanation became smaller and smaller, Lin Xun couldn't help but touch her head with his hand with pity, and said with tears in his eyes: "It's all my brother's fault, don't blame Yaoyao." Hurry up and take the rice to make some porridge, otherwise Ali will cry again in a while. ”
"Hmm. Mu Yao answered, and quickly climbed down from the broken bed, pulled out a few sticks of wood from one corner, and some hay, and lit a fire in the other corner, a simple stove like a junior high school student's picnic, and a barely complete clay pot. Everything that is familiar and unfamiliar made Lin Xun, who was holding Ali, finally couldn't help but cry silently......
