Chapter 116: Only Mom Will Hurt Me
Li Yu and Ge Lipeng went out of the city from the Boulder Gate, and compared to the lively scene outside the Arc de Triomphe, it was much more deserted here.
Although you can still see some tents on the side of the road, there are no people in them at this time, and I guess they all went to watch the competition.
However, for the sake of prudence, Li Yu and Ge Lipeng still walked a little longer until they came to a small forest.
Li Yu sent the black dog guards to search the woods and found a place where no one was around, and Jude led people to guard the surroundings.
While waiting for Ilea, Li Yu also chatted with Ge Lipeng for a while.
"How's it going, are you still used to life here?"
"It's okay, I don't really have any requirements for food and accommodation." Ge Lipeng said, "It took some time to get used to the tools, there are no machine tools, no welding guns, no electric furnaces, and no grinding machines......
"But with a little more thought, you can still find most of the alternatives, and before the Industrial Revolution, guns were made by gunsmiths.
"I did some homework on this before we signed the contract, so everything went well.
"The most important thing is that I can finally make a living by hand, and now that there are no manufacturing restrictions, I am quite satisfied with this job."
"That's good," Li Yu nodded, "But now that you are a believer in the Shuangxiu Sect, remember to rest on time after work, and I'll ask Jude to take you around the city when you go back."
"Lionheart Fort is the largest town on the continent of Brattis, it is very prosperous, it gathers all kinds of goods on the continent, and there are a lot of delicacies, we will leave here after the tournament, and I don't know when we will come next time."
Ge Lipeng thought for a while and said, "Okay, then I'll go to the blacksmith shop and the carpenter shop to see how they work, sometimes some ancient methods are also very useful."
"Never underestimate the wisdom of those ancient craftsmen, after all, we were only born a few hundred years after them, and then I will go to the market in the city if I can, and see if there are any special materials and tools."
Li Yu and Ge Lipeng chatted for a while, and Ge Lipeng also advised Li Yu to order less takeout at ordinary times, because even if there is nothing wrong with the ingredients, in order to pursue the taste, chefs outside often choose heavy oil and salt, and eating too much is not good for the body.
And Li Yu asked Ge Lipeng where he got all this messy manual knowledge.
Ge Lipeng said frankly that most of them were self-taught on YouTube, and he also consulted some masters, but he mainly groped by himself, and after more exploration, he slowly became proficient.
Don't be afraid of failure in the early stage, the process of overcoming difficulties itself will bring a strong sense of achievement.
While the two were talking, they saw a figure approaching from the other side of the woods.
It was Ilea who was invited by the emperor to watch the tournament.
It was only after a moment that I didn't see her, and the girl looked like a different person, with the pair of long ears on her head hanging listlessly on her cheeks, and her eyes were red, as if she had just cried her nose.
She was completely soulless, and she was fluttering when she walked, like a walking corpse.
"What, what's going on again?" Li Yu asked.
The female lord was stunned.
It wasn't until Li Yu repeated the question again that she seemed to hear clearly, and muttered, "Earth Bear...... A duel was launched against me. ”
"Why?"
"Because he said I killed his nephew and he wanted to avenge his nephew, do you remember that mercenary nicknamed Honey Bear?"
"Well, he was hired by your stepmother and died under Jude's axe."
"The Earth Bear has put this on my head."
Li Yu frowned, "You agreed to his dueling request?" ”
"Of course not, you're not there, you didn't see how crazy that guy was in the jousting arena, oh my God! He screwed off a man's head with his bare hands, and then retreated under the blows of three killers.
Claudio said that his strength was probably about the same as that of a real bear! The other contestants were like chicks when they faced him, and they didn't even have the courage to shoot at him.
"And Your Majesty has allowed us to settle each other's grievances in the competition, which means that I am dead!"
Miss Rabbit shook her head like a rattle, "No way, there's absolutely no way I'm going to defeat a monster like that!" My nightmare is about to come true, I will be killed by him in front of everyone, without mercy. ”
"I will be the first head of the Arias family to die at a jousting tournament, and I will not be able to leave a complete corpse, and then my family and I will be the laughing stock of the entire empire, for the nobles in the royal capital to talk about for years.
"Later, when they go out and see everything that has no head, they will point at their companions and laugh, and say, 'You don't see that looks like Ilea, I don't want to be remembered in this way, it's too bad!"
When the female lord said that the sorrow came from it in the end, she sobbed quietly again, and said to Li Yu while crying.
"I have no heirs, so I plan to pass on the position of head of the family to my aunt Elisa, Merlin, can you help me take care of her, just as you take care of me?"
After she finished speaking, she raised her head, but saw that Li Yu and Ge Lipeng's expressions still looked very calm.
Ge Lipeng was okay, he couldn't understand the lingua franca of the Brattis Continent, and it was probably not clear what was going on at this time, but Li Yu's reaction made Miss Rabbit inexplicably a little disappointed.
Among the knights she had seen, the two of them should have hugged each other and cried at this time, and she could also take the opportunity to express her heart to Li Yu, but she had a wish, so she could probably be a little more peaceful when she left.
But seeing that Li Yu's reaction was so flat, the girl's heart couldn't help but wonder, did he not care about me at all, it was just my wishful thinking from beginning to end?
Her heart hurt even more when she thought of this.
It doesn't seem to matter if you feel like you've been screwed off by the Earth Bear, who made this world so cold.
Mom. Woo woo woo, sure enough, only my mother will hurt me.
"Let's take a look at the power of the new artifact first, and then decide whether to trust Gu or not." Li Yu said at this time.
He took a flintlock pistol from Ge Lipeng's hand, modeled after a dueling pistol from another cosmic plane more than two hundred years ago.
As the name suggests, the European aristocracy of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was very keen to defend their honor by dueling with such pistols, such as the poet Pushkin and the mathematician Galois......
Li Yu opened the lid of the primer plate, bit through the paper shell bullet, filled it with a small amount of gunpowder, then closed the lid and poured all the remaining gunpowder into the barrel.
The lead bullet was then stuffed into the barrel along with the wrapped paper shell to ensure airtightness, and finally the reload was completed with a few more stabs with the strip.
