Chapter 256: The Way Home
"So we're almost there?"
"It's coming, it's coming soon."
"How fast is that?"
"Anyway, it's going to be soon."
In the homeless convoy, the old man Yang Xuanyang was tirelessly answering the children's doubts, and he could feel that these children were already very tired from the journey, after all, even he himself was already very tired.
Coming out of Jibei and traveling all the way to various states, how can they, the displaced people, go thousands of miles away...... Although they have also stopped and set up camp, the lingering fatigue still lingers on them.
In the final analysis, they all know in their hearts that whether it is a temporary stockade or a temporary state city, those are other people's places after all, and they are just temporary stays.
It wasn't their home after all, it wasn't a place where they could really feel at ease.
After their former homes were destroyed by the war, they have all become rootless weeds, and the grass will drift wherever the wind blows. In this increasingly crazy world, under this dangerous sky, where can they settle down and find their home?
And now, the wind has finally found its way home.
"When I get to the place, I'm going to build a big martial arts training ground!"
At the front of the team, Du Chengfeng, who was riding on a horse, was imagining a better life in the future.
"I can practice, everyone can come over to practice, when the time comes, I will be the head coach, Xiao Cui will be in charge of the assistant coach, everyone's physical fitness will not rub up...... What do you mean I'm actually playing for myself? Okay, even if I'm doing it for my own activities, I'm building it myself, and you're beating me? ”
"What am I hitting you for?"
Liu Bolun in the carriage also rarely didn't drink.
"I mean, it's a shame that you have such a big place, or you might as well come and send the kids to study in a few more rows of houses...... What does it mean to optimize me, I don't look so unfit to be a mountain chief? I'm the one who really learned from the old man, right? Only I can hang the plaque of Ziyang Academy. ”
"Forget it, those two mountain guards are more reliable than you."
Du Chengfeng laughed at Liu Bolun fiercely.
This is not even a simple verbal attack, but an objective fact, although Liu Bolun is outstanding, but all his energy is spent on wine, if he wants to teach people to study, I am afraid that he is really not as good as the two complete mountain guards who have studied with Ruan Shantao.
What's more, the old man with surplus money is also in the convoy right now, no matter how you look at it, this old man is more suitable for managing the academy than an alcoholic.
If you let the old man come with surplus money, at least when the students go to find the mountain chief, they can go directly to the mountain chief's house, instead of opening each wine vat one by one and taking a look.
"By the way, who's that."
Speaking of this, Du Chengfeng turned his head to look at the grassland descendant on his side.
"Your name is only...... What's going on? If you want to build a horse farm, you may have to wait a while, after all, we don't necessarily have enough forage to raise so many large animals for the time being......"
"It's easy to say, a few of us can herd sheep."
The steppe descendant did not wear armor at this moment, but wore a leather jacket, just looking at this appearance, he really looked like an ordinary shepherd.
Or, many of them are grassland warriors, who were originally born as shepherds, and they have an elite status by daring to fight and dare to risk their lives.
What's more, it doesn't feel the same.
If they were still in the service of the Great Khan, then they would have changed from a priest to a shepherd, which was called being degraded. If they just go back incognito as deserters, then from a soldier to a shepherd, it is called nothing. But now, as armor soldiers, they have suddenly become shepherds, which makes them feel relaxed.
In the final analysis, aren't they risking their lives to fight on the battlefield just to have a few more days of peace?
"Come on, try to make everyone have meat to eat."
Du Chengfeng patted Erhuo's shoulder.
At this moment, this grassland army can be regarded as truly integrated into this team of displaced people.
People who are willing to use their own hands to build a home for themselves, Du Chengfeng is always welcome.
Not only a few of them, but also these homeless villagers are also imagining their future lives, some want to reclaim more fields, and some want to build more houses...... For a while, the whole team became lively, and even Cui Yuan, who has always lived a very energy-saving life, participated in the discussion.
"If anyone wants to learn swords, they can come to me."
Cui Yuan, who has always been obsessed with swordsmanship, showed a tendency to socialize for the first time, although many people did not mean to learn swords from him, but this idea still won unanimous praise from everyone.
It was at this time that Du Chengfeng suspended his body and stopped next to Carpenter Li.
"Big brother, are you alright?"
Looking at the wooden man on the frame, Du Chengfeng was silent for a moment, but still spoke.
"Is there anything you want to do?"
"I ......"
The wooden man was silent for a moment, but finally shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Although it didn't show anything in the past few days, the doubts hidden in my heart still couldn't be forgotten after all-who is it Carpenter Li? Or is it just a memory? If it is really Carpenter Li, what is this stick in his hand?
"Brother Du."
With a sigh, the wooden man picked up the stick and handed it to Du Chengfeng.
"Probably...... He's your brother, I'm just ......"
"Hey, don't say this."
Du Chengfeng shook his head again and again.
"Now is not the time to talk about this, this is the time...... Well, if you have to ask me this question, I don't really know how to answer you. ”
Looking at the stick handed over by the wooden man, Du Chengfeng scratched his head.
"But if you think about it in the past, originally in this world, I only had one eldest brother, but now, it has become two, isn't this a good thing?"
"You ......"
The wooden man was stunned.
"It seems to be."
"Right."
Du Chengfeng nodded.
"So there's no need to worry about that, don't think about it so much, at least for now, think about more good things, like you can finally do what you want, you'll have a carpenter's workshop, you'll make a lot of things...... You can even pass on your craft to your children and let your craft pass on......"
"Here's the thing."
The wooden man thought about it, but still scratched his head.
"Actually, that's what I think is the most problematic."
"Oh? How so? ”
"Look, there's two of me now, right?"
The wooden man pointed to himself, and then to the club.
"Who should the children call daddy?"
The second shift was delivered, and everyone rested early.
Also: Thank you for your votes, thank you for your encouragement and support.
I've rested early, good night, everyone.
