The food on the table was already cold, but Lu Xi and Xiao Yuan were not picky, and they were still very satisfied, although the taste was not as delicious as they imagined.

It should be the reason why the food is cold, Lu Xi thought.

"Good night." Lu Xi blew out the oil lamp, whispered to Xiao Yuan who was lying on the side of the bed, and then lay on the warm bed, covered with a brand new quilt, closed his eyes in a room where he couldn't hear the wind whistling, and fell asleep.

It was a rare night without worrying about danger, and Lu Xi had a very deep sleep, so when she woke up the next day, she was not surprised that she had overslept.

Although the body can be refreshed every day, the mental exhaustion continues to accumulate until this time I finally relax and rest.

No one came to disturb Lu Xi, not even Aunt Asuna.

When Lu Xi woke up, it was already more than ten o'clock in the morning, she only felt refreshed, and her whole body was full of strength, even if she was allowed to go to the Problack Forest to survive for half a month now...... This may be a bit of a no-brainer.

Let Xiao Yuan hide in the house, Lu Xi walked out of the room, Aunt Asuna was cleaning some weeds in the yard, and after hearing the sound of the door opening, she looked up and said hello to Lu Xi.

"Miss Lucy, good morning."

Lu Xi looked up at the big sun in the sky, which was almost in the middle of the sky, was silent for a moment, and then changed the topic, "What is this doing?" ”

Aunt Asuna stood up, wiped two handfuls of water on the hem of her clothes, and replied to Lu Xi, "The grass stalks of this grass, washed and dried for a day, will be tougher than the kind of grass stalks used by Miss Lucy, and it is better to use them into straw mats." ”

Lu Xi's eyes followed Aunt Asuna's movements, only to find that the drying rack next to her was already full of her messy old clothes, as well as her rabbit blanket.

Looking closely, I found that all of them had been cleaned, washed very cleanly, and even re-sewn, and the needlework was delicate as if the old things had been renovated.

Apparently when she got up in the morning, Aunt Asuna has not been idle.

"You haven't eaten yet, you should be hungry, the broth is still hot in the pot, I'll bring it to you."

Aunt Asuna walked towards the kitchen, Lu Xi touched her stomach, she didn't feel it when she didn't remind her, so she was indeed a little hungry.

It's just that when the broth was served, it was already very cloudy, and Aunt Asuna was ashamed, "This ...... Why don't you wait a minute, Miss Lucy, and I'll make you another one. ”

Lu Xi understood that the broth should have been cooked very early in the morning, and Aunt Asuna was worried that she would not be able to eat it in time when she got up, so she kept boiling it in the pot, but she slept directly until more than ten o'clock, and the soup was so hot for several hours that any soup had to be boiled.

"Don't waste it, I'll just take a bite of this." Lu Xi took the cloudy broth, as well as two sticks of black bread.

There was still some time before noon, and Aunt Asuna obviously still had work to do, so Lu Xi didn't plan to trouble the other party anymore, so she could even eat mustard grass raw, so she didn't care about the taste of the broth.

"This ......" Aunt Asuna was very hesitant, the village chief of Lu Li had repeatedly told her not to neglect the guests, but Lu Xi's attitude was very firm, and she didn't know whether to listen to Lu Xi for a while.

Seeing this, Lu Xi simply took the broth and brought it back to the room by himself, and before returning to the house, Lu Xi paused and said it out loud.

"Aunt Arsuna, don't let anyone in this room I live in, if you need to clean the room, I'll tell you."

"Yes, Miss Lucy." Aunt Asuna answered with trepidation, and could not help but rejoice that she had not taken it upon herself to go into the room and wake up Miss Lucy in the morning.

The taste of the broth is not unpleasant, but it is not very delicious, Lu Xi did not eat more after filling his stomach, and Xiao Yuan did not like the taste of the broth very much, maybe it was cooked for too long with some mush.

Xiao Yuan rubbed Lu Xi's thigh, because Aunt Asuna was in the yard, so it didn't scream sensibly, but just looked at Lu Xi with a pair of bright and big eyes.

"Want to eat my roasted meat?" Lu Xi understood Xiao Yuan's eyes, and replied in a small voice, "But we don't have any prey to roast." ”

The birds had been in their stomachs last night, but they were so cold that they didn't taste anything.

Xiao Yuan is like a salted fish that has lost his dreams, aggrieved and pitiful lying on the ground.

Lu Xi couldn't look at Xiao Yuan's pitiful appearance, thought about it, and suddenly remembered that Ayina said yesterday that the mercenaries living in the village had beaten a low-level monster and came back.

When they finish disposing of the monsters, the remaining monster meat will be left in the village, and the village chief Luli is already preparing to have a bonfire party tonight.

"There is a bonfire party in the village at night, and a lot of monster meat will be roasted, and I will bake more for you to bring back to eat."

Touching Xiao Yuan's soft wolf head, Lu Xi comforted softly, Xiao Yuan was really much more energetic after hearing this, his tail shook vigorously, and he was already looking forward to the arrival of the night.

After handing over the finished plates and bowls to Aunt Asuna, Lu Xi walked out of the courtyard, still carrying the two books given by the village chief of Luli in his hands.

She hadn't forgotten that these two books were Aina's sister's favorite bedtime readings, and after reading their contents, the books were useless to her, so it was better to return them sooner.

Of course, Lu Xi has a second purpose, which is to ask Ayina for some more news.

"Aina? He was just called away by the mercenary masters in the morning, and he hasn't come back yet, Miss Lucy, do you have something to do with Ayina? I'm going to call him back. ”

The village chief of Lu Li was very polite to Lu Xi, although neither of the mercenary group nor the noble lady could be treated lightly, but in comparison, this Miss Lucy was more generous, which was incomparable to the mercenary masters.

Moreover, the things that the mercenary masters asked Ayina to do were all small things, such as finding some plants, or simply doing some chores, and finding someone else to replace them was the same, and the mercenary masters didn't care about such a thing.

"No need." Lu Xi opened his mouth to refuse, then thought about it, and added, "I'll go over and find him myself." ”

Village Chief Lu Li's surprised gaze didn't have time to hide, and Lu Xi opened his mouth to explain, "I don't have anything important, I just want to walk around casually and see what he usually does by the way." ”

Yesterday afternoon, Lu Xi and Ayina walked for so long, and in fact, they only visited most of the village, and they didn't have time to see the direction where the mercenaries were.

The first reason is that Kuwa Village is big enough, and the second is that Ayina has too many words, and he can introduce a lot of them wherever he stands, and he doesn't stop talking when he walks.

The village chief of Lu Li was aware of the curiosity of a noble lady about the life of the common people, but he did not continue the topic, but opened his mouth to say something else.

"Miss Lucy must be going to Viguri Town."

Lu Xi glanced at the village chief of Luli and did not refute, the town of Viguli was the only place she could reach now, and if there was no other choice, she would have to go there to find a way to get to the farm.

Seeing Lu Xi's reaction, Village Chief Luli felt a little more relaxed, "Miss Lucy, the road to Viguli Town is dozens of kilometers away, and it will take at least two days to get there. ”

This is not like the earth, there are all kinds of roads, all the way is flat and you can walk through, and even if there is, they are all small roads that humans walk back and forth, not much easier than Luxi on the grassland.

Lu Xi didn't interject, and listened to Village Chief Lu Li finish speaking, "The most dangerous thing is that you may encounter all kinds of monsters at any time along the way. ”

Lu Xi can deeply understand this.

"Although I am a low-level elemental warrior, I can't do a good job of guarding too many low-level monsters." The village chief of Luli politely refused to be escorted by him to the town of Viguli.

However, what he said was not very true, the distance of dozens of kilometers, and the route of people who often take people, at most, he will meet one or two low-level monsters, and it will not make the village chief of Luli unable to deal with it.

It's a pity that Lu Xi doesn't know much about this, so he can only listen to Lu Li Village Chief continue.

"But Miss Lucy, you don't need to worry, our village used to go to the Viguri town to sell its crops, and the Viguri town patrol would pass by here every other month."

"When the time comes, as long as we follow the patrol, it's fine, and the patrol won't refuse us to follow." Of course, filial piety must be prepared, otherwise those patrols will not care about their life and death.

As the village chief Lu Li spoke, he observed the changes in Lu Xi's demeanor, and at the same time did not forget to explain to Lu Xi.

"There are usually ten people in the patrol, and there is at least one low-level elemental mage and four low-level elemental warriors."

Elemental mages are different from elemental warriors, and in terms of lethality at the same level, one elemental mage can be compared to at least a dozen elemental warriors.

Similarly, the number of people who can become elemental mages is even rarer, maybe ten out of a hundred people can become elemental warriors, but only one can become an elemental mage, just maybe.

Therefore, every patrol in the town of Viguli will have at least one elemental mage to ensure safety.

Ayina and Luxi talked about the patrol, and when they mentioned Aunt Asuna, they mentioned her two sons in passing, and by the way, they talked about their patrol in the town of Viguli and what the patrol did.

In general, the task of the patrol team is to patrol back and forth in circles around the town of Viguli for a hundred kilometers, cleaning up all kinds of monsters encountered on the road and avoiding dangerous monsters from appearing around the town.

By the way, check the situation of those villages that are registered, and occasionally solve some village troubles, so that the common people in the village will not be able to live unsustainably, and suddenly all of them will move away, and there will be a little less source of "taxes" in the towns.

This is also a little bit of a function of the "tax", and only the village that has paid the "tax" and has its name in the town of Viguli will appear on the route of the patrol.

Lu Xi thought for a moment and asked the key question, "When is the next time the patrol will come?" "You can't let her wait here for a month, she doesn't have to spend so long.

"Five days later." The village chief of Luli gave a definite answer.

Fortunately, this time is not too long, Lu Xi feels that she can wait for a few days, and she can also see that the village chief Luli has hidden something from her, but she is not from this world, and there are still many things she doesn't understand, so there is no need to pursue it.

Sometimes, it's nice to be a little confused and be nice to each other.

Leaving from the village chief of Luli, Lu Xi walked in the northeast direction of Kuwa village.

This is the most lively and prosperous place in the whole village, next to the large square in the middle of the village, and a large piece of cloth is spread on the open space of the square, covered with something I don't know.

Lu Xi walked out two steps, and then realized that under the cloth, it should be the monster meat left by the mercenaries, it looks really large, and it is estimated that the size is the size of an elephant on the earth, and I don't know what kind of creature it is.

There are a lot of villagers along the way, and at the end of summer, before the harvest, the villagers can do less, and have more free time during the day, except for some nights to sleep at home during the day, basically like to wander around the square, and occasionally have a drink or two in the tavern of the old Kett.

Lu Xi was wearing Aina's clothes, and when he glanced at the past, most of the villagers thought that Aina was passing by, and a few of them were more familiar with Aina, and found that the hair color was wrong, and they bowed their heads and muttered a few words, and they all knew Lu Xi's identity.

There are no secrets in this kind of know-it-all village, not to mention that Lu Xi didn't hide his identity along the way, so they just muttered behind their backs at this time.

In the largest of the houses, there was an old wooden sign with the word "tavern" engraved in crooked font at the door, and it was not known who wrote it.

There are also a few signboards with the words "carpenter", "grocery store", and "restaurant" carved on the side, but none of them are very popular, and they look more like signs hanging in front of your house than shops.

It is true that in such a small village, there is not necessarily any profit from opening a store.

The mercenaries lived in a house with a "restaurant" sign, and Ayina said that Kenle, who opened the restaurant, had the largest house, and since Kenle had followed him back from two trips to the town of Viguri, he had divided his house into the front and back yards, with people living in the backyard and a restaurant in the front yard.

After the mercenary lord came, he rented their backyard, and now the family lives in a restaurant in the front yard.

Lu Xi wondered how they managed to make money by opening a restaurant in the village, and Ayina replied, "Make money?" No, they don't make money. Some bachelors in the village couldn't find a daughter-in-law, and there was no one at home, and they were busy and didn't have time to cook, or they didn't know how to cook at all, so they would bring food to Kenler and ask Kenler to cook for them, and they only had to set aside some of the food for Kenle. ”

This part of the surplus grain was occasionally taken by Khinder to the town of Viguli to sell, and occasionally kept for himself to eat.

Not enough to make a living from it, but enough to make life better, of course, the main thing is to the village chief Luli, who made every household have enough food, which is why Kenle has played a role.

"Ah, Miss Lucy." Aina, who was busy in the restaurant or something, saw Lu Xi as soon as she looked up, and instantly raised a big smile.
