Chapter 10 In the Lower Lee Eleven

Li Shiyi got up early the next day, originally wanting to go directly to catch fish and come back. However, he rarely got up early before, and forgot that the hard-working people get up at dawn. After getting dressed and washing briefly, Aunt Mei's breakfast was ready. Going around to the back door, he opened the door and was about to slip out, but he was shocked as soon as he opened the door. The path behind the house was already crowded with pedestrians, and people working in the fields in the distance occupied almost every piece of land. This is still quiet, if the process of catching fish is seen in a while, maybe the commotion caused by it can make all the plans for today go to waste. So he retreated back to his room, waiting for Li Qiuye to come to him.

As soon as I walked back, I saw that Li Qiuye was already waiting at the door, and the little mood that was a little disappointed just now suddenly improved. Opening the mouth to say hello even began to bring in the tone of the times.

"Akiba girl, it's early"

"Mr. Eleven, morning!" Both of them had a smile in their tones.

Suddenly, the two of them reacted, and Li Shiyi's voice was no longer so hoarse, and the most important thing was that it was not so terrifying. And it's easy to hear the tone. This made both of them laugh happily, but the hoarse voice was still not very good.

"Congratulations to Mr. Eleven, his voice has recovered, if it is convenient, can you take off the hat and let the little woman check her body for you." Li Qiuye's kind words made Li Shiyi get goosebumps a little.

"Miss Akiba still call me Eleven, I'm not used to talking like that for the time being." After thinking about it, he added, "I want you to call me Brother Eleven, is that okay?"

Li Qiuye smiled obediently and said, "Okay." But he didn't call out, and leaned sideways to let Li Shiyi enter the room.

As a result, whether it is the face or the body, except that you can feel a little more flesh. It looked the same, the same black, the same wrinkles, the same eyes and mouth that couldn't be closed, and the two missing teeth. Maybe the voice has almost recovered, and it still sounds a little strange and hoarse, Li Shiyi feels that the main fault is the lack of these two teeth.

Listening to Li Qiuye say that his body still hadn't changed much, Li Shiyi looked at his palm with disappointed eyes. Suddenly, Li Qiuye reached out and grabbed Li Shiyi's hand, and then said encouragingly, "It's okay, Brother Eleven." Since it is developing in a good way, it will get better one day. ”

In fact, Li Shiyi just suddenly heard that his voice had improved, and thought that his body would also improve significantly. was just a little disappointed, but I didn't expect Li Qiuye's "Eleventh Brother" comfort to be a little powerful, and the haze in my heart disappeared all of a sudden. Li Shiyi smiled happily: "It's okay, Sister Akiba." Don't worry about me, I'll be fine soon."

After breakfast, the two of them set off for the main street of the city. Although I didn't continue to hold hands, you said "Brother Eleven" and I said "Sister Akiba". Li Shiyi felt that there was that smell, and this relationship developed very well. Because others couldn't see the face under the hat, Li Shiyi kept smirking silently under the hat.

The guards actually have their own city walls, but in comparison, they are much smaller, much shorter, and much simpler. It's just a fence. And apart from the fact that plants grow a kilometer or two near the river, there is hardly any trace of plants at all for more than three kilometers. So this fenced city is actually two rows of houses, and it looks like an African town on TV. Although it is a town of several thousand people, there is only one butcher shop and one cloth shop. Other products are also very few. Where there are thousands of people, if you don't waste time in the shops, this whole street can walk back and forth in half an hour.

Along the way, many people greeted Li Shiyi, and it felt like today was more like a meeting. However, the new name "Li Shiyi" is called by everyone, and both sides of the road are crowded with people, some people just stare at Li Shiyi, and some people will greet him. There are also some people who will take the initiative to introduce themselves by name. At first, one or two were fine, but later there were people who wanted to come up and were stopped by Li Qiuye. It is said that Mr. Eleven's body has not recovered yet, and it is not suitable to disturb for the time being. So Li Shiyi asked Li Qiuye directly, and Li Qiuye also said bluntly: "These people actually know that you will go to the street with me today, but my father and the city lord have greeted everyone, so they are not allowed to disturb you." Everyone just really wants to see Brother Eleven. ”

And few of these greeting people are wearing normal clothes, so the clothes worn by those who take the initiative to greet can be called clothes. Most of the people were a few rags to cover their bodies and keep warm, and they stood on the side of the street in early spring, trembling, looking at Li Shiyi with savior-like eyes. At first, Li Shiyi was quite uncomfortable, and even wanted to escape. Later, I saw more of those eyes, especially after making eye contact with most of them. I think back to what I have seen, understood, and eaten in the past few days. He suddenly stood in the middle of the street and looked around at everyone. Then he shouted with all his strength: "After a pause for a few seconds, "under Li Eleven" and then for a few seconds, "under Li Eleven". He didn't know what he was going to say next, he felt that it was too little to say anything now, and he just wanted to do something for them.

Many people froze on the spot and did not speak. They didn't know what to say, but they felt very relieved to hear Li Shiyi introduce themselves so simply. After half a ring, everyone bowed down to Li Shiyi, and their voices were uneven, but they replied very forcefully, "I've seen Mr. Eleven." Then almost all the onlookers dispersed, and all that remained were the owners of the shops and the sporadic people who bought things.

Li Qiuye was surprised by the scene just now, and she didn't react until Li Shiyi called her, and said, "Actually, there is a task on the street today, and it's inconvenient for Brother Eleven outside, so we'll leave as soon as we do it." After speaking, he took Li Shiyi to the blacksmith shop to collect fine iron. Almost one-third of the shops in a street are blacksmith shops, and more than a dozen blacksmith shops have collected nearly 150 catties of fine iron. Originally, Li Shiyi helped carry one or twenty catties, but after receiving the last one, Li Qiuye threw all the fine iron into the big back basket and carried it up. A full hundred and fifty pounds, it didn't seem difficult to look at her, so she carried it on her back and went to the bridge pillar. Li Shiyi followed behind her, and I was really afraid that such a heavy fine iron would crush her bones, but at the beginning, Li Shiyi was still a little unable to catch up with her pace. After waking up, he had never walked so fast, and Li Qiuye even stopped from time to time to look back to see if he had followed. This embarrassed Eleven, so she simply jogged.

Since Li Shiyi woke up, he has actually been like a rare and protected animal, and his only exercise is to take a walk by the river. However, jogging behind Li Qiuye this time made Li Shiyi sweat a little after a while. At first, it actually really made Li Shiyi feel very tired, and even a little out of breath. But after most of the pores began to sweat, Li Shiyi suddenly felt that the body seemed to become smooth, and every breath drove the flow of blood in the body, the ups and downs of the lungs, and even the breathing of the pores. Running and running, Li Shiyi felt as if he had entered a certain state, he felt that every part of his body became observable under his consciousness, so he found many blockages in his body, some were blocked by blood, some were unable to exert normal muscles, and there was something similar to energy hitting walls everywhere in his body. waited until Li Qiuye called him to realize that he had just maintained a posture and frequency that he felt very comfortable and had been jogging. Unconsciously, it has surpassed Li Qiuye a little far. Looking at Li Qiuye's panting eyes and running over with concern, Li Shiyi's eyes flashed at this moment. seemed to suddenly understand something, and said to Li Qiuye with a smile: "Come, brother help you." Without waiting for Li Qiuye to react, he took two bags from the back basket. A bag is usually one or twenty catties, and at this moment, Li Qiuye didn't understand why Brother Eleven's movements suddenly became agile, and he originally wanted to dodge and not let him take it. But before the cat's waist could dodge, he felt a light back basket. The strength also increased, and he jumped up and down like a child in front of him with two bags of fine iron. Although I don't understand, I'm just very happy, and I'm happy for Brother Eleven.

Li Qiuye shouted happily in the back: "Brother Eleven, slow down, wait for me."

Seeing Li Qiuye chasing behind with such a big basket, Li Shiyi reacted, and seemed to be overjoyed suddenly. Stand still and wait. When Li Qiuye arrived at his side, he suddenly snatched four bags from the back basket, carrying three bags in one hand. Because of the excessive range of movements, and blind confidence in one's current physical strength. After lifting the bag in his left hand for an elegant half-turn, he also turned around with three bags of fine iron in his right hand, and under inertia, he threw himself directly into the field. Lying on the newly planted seedlings, Li Qiuye hurriedly put down the back basket and was about to pull him up. As a result, I saw that Li Shiyi, who was stupid, was still holding three bags in one hand, struggling in the field, but he couldn't even stand up, and his whole body was covered in mud. The action was extremely funny, so that Li Qiuye couldn't hold back his laughter, and the hand he stretched out retracted, pressing his stomach, it's really not okay to laugh for a while. In the end, he took the fine iron in Li Shiyi's hand first, and then pulled Li Shiyi up. After pulling it up, he couldn't help laughing again, and Li Shiyi laughed when he saw Li Qiuye smiling so happily. But after laughing, the two went down to the field together and replanted all the overwhelmed seedlings before leaving.

Li Qiuye originally wanted Li Shiyi to go home and change his clothes, but Li Shiyi said: Didn't you say that you were going to send Jingtie, it will be there soon, and now it is farther to go back directly, so let's send it back again. Besides, most of the people who work in the fields are similar to what they are now. It's all mud, but his upper body is a little more sticky than theirs. Now that the sun is shining, you can do it in a while. Although Li Qiuye was very worried that the weather was not completely warm now, he was afraid that Li Shiyi would catch a cold. But if you think about it, it's also true, so let's send it back quickly.

The two of them didn't run again this time, but only sped up a little, and now Li Shiyi can fully keep up. The two also refused to argue for a while because Li Shiyi had to carry six bags, and Li Qiuye refused to argue for a while. In the end, Li Shiyi directly walked in front with six bags of fine iron, and Li Qiuye was not easy to grab, and Li Shiyi won back a game.

After walking not far, Li Shiyi suddenly slowed down and walked side by side with Li Qiuye. Li Qiuye thought that Li Shiyi couldn't lift it, so he hurriedly said with concern:

"Don't do it, your body has just recovered a bit. Come, put all the fine iron in. I've been carrying these things since I was a child, and I used to carry more than 200 catties of copper ore to exchange for food. But what she didn't say was that she couldn't get out of bed the next day after carrying more than 200 pounds that time. As he spoke, he tilted the basket towards Li Shiyi.

Seeing this, Li Shiyi hurriedly reached out to straighten the back basket, and said with some reproach: "What are you doing, you are not afraid of flashing your waist!" After so many days of care, I just stretched my muscles. It's easy for me to carry all of this in my hands now. ”

Looking at Li Qiuye looking at herself a little confused, it seemed that there was something that made her feel incomprehensible. Li Shiyi hurriedly said the true purpose of waiting for her. lest this curious baby wait and ask some very simple questions, but he can't be sure of himself.

"Have you ever eaten fish?"

"I ate, once, when I was a child, at the Spring Festival party on the other side."

"Where did the fish come from?"

"It is said that it is in a lake far away from here, and I heard that the lake is a very large pool of water, and it is very beautiful. And there are no man-eating monsters in the boundary river. Li Qiuye seemed to be recalling the appearance of the lake that others had told her, with an obsessive look of yearning.

"But the last time you were tortured on the river, didn't you call it feeding fish? Why do you call it a monster now" was almost at her destination, and I had to interrupt her thoughts in order to get an answer quickly, and asked hurriedly.

Li Qiuye thought for a moment: "Oh, you said that." Because it's the dry season, there's only that one in the river... Fish. Almost a month later, the river rose. There's a big guy in there... Monster. Feeding the fish is just a name. ”

It seems that Li Qiuye doesn't want to subdivide what kind of fish, what kind of monster. Because for her, these are man-eating monsters. Hearing this, Li Shiyi found that his plan should be more hurried.

"Oh, it's a problem for you to have enough to eat, and you didn't think about catching the river... Fish to satisfy hunger? ”

"Huh? That's a man-eating thing! Li Qiuye was frightened when he heard this.

Li Shiyi: "Huh? He didn't expect this to be the case, so no one dared to touch the river. At this moment, Li Shiyi was very speechless, and everyone was about to starve to death. As long as this thing isn't poisonous... Besides, fish is an omnivore in the first place, and you give it to eat people, but it doesn't eat it? It's not stupid, it's just a little more vicious. Not to mention, there are cannibals。。。。。。

Li Shiyi is a little embarrassed now, even if he catches the fish in a while, I don't know if anyone will dare to eat it. If everyone doesn't eat or die, doing ideological work is quite a troublesome thing. I had to mentally plan the hardest part of the plan so far.

Li Qiuye saw that Li Shiyi suddenly stopped talking, and he was a little used to it. Knowing that this eleventh brother is sometimes so weird and weird, he suddenly doesn't know what he's thinking if he doesn't speak.

"I'll grab a few, I'll taste it first, and if it's not poisonous, let your dad taste it."

"Huh?" Li Qiuye was confused by the sudden remark.
