Volume 1 Another World Chapter 212 Bart and Abu
Bart slowly woke up, only to feel that his whole body did not have half of his strength, and forced his eyes to look around, it was a dilapidated grass hut. Under his body is extremely Xuanteng, probably because of a lot of grass,
Bart tried to struggle to get up, but the slightest movement made him feel that all the muscles in Zhou's body were in sharp pain as if they were being pulled.
"Hiss......" Bart gasped in pain, "It hurts......"
At this time, footsteps sounded outside the door, very brisk, "squeak~~" The broken wooden door was pushed open, and a little girl with a ponytail walked in.
"Huh?" the little girl looked very thin, her clothes were mostly patched, her cuffs were washed white, and she couldn't cover her forearms, "Big brother, you're awake!
Bart said groggily, "You...... Who are you, and how am I here?"
The little girl walked up to Bart, stretched out her little hand and touched his forehead, and then let out a sigh of relief: "Great, don't burn, big brother, your head was like it was burned by fire, but it burned to death." ”
Bart thought about it, but still couldn't remember what had happened before: "You...... Little sister, my name is ...... I...... By the way, my name is Bart, what's your name?"
The little girl giggled: "Brother Bart, my name is Abu~"
Bart grinned, "Well, Abu, did you save me?"
Abu nodded and said, "Brother Bart, I picked you up on the beach, and it took a lot of effort to move you back!"
Bart smiled, "Yes...... Hey, I'm ...... I'm so fat, by the way, Sister Abu, where am I?"
Abu said: "This is the farthest border island of the empire, called Minsk Island, and the place where you are staying now is the village of Minsk, my home~~~"
Bart had no idea about geography at all, and even if Abu did, he had no idea where he was. But he still nodded and said, "Sister Abu, I'm ...... I'm hungry......"
Abu sneered and said, "I knew you would be hungry, I'll get it for you, Brother Bart, wait a minute~"
With that, Abu jumped out and came back with two crockpots in a short time.
"Brother Bart, this is pickled dried fish, I have steamed it with water, and even the fish bones can be eaten, here are some scones, you can eat it~"
Bart was already hungry in his belly, and now that he saw the food, he couldn't care about the pain in his body, so he immediately struggled to get up, grabbed the scones and stuffed them into his mouth. The scones are made from the rhizomes of a special plant on the island, and they are quite fragrant to eat, and the delicious steamed dried fish can spoil the taste.
Bart was swept away, and the food in the two crockpots disappeared in a moment.
Abu stared at him with a smile in his eyes.
Bart wiped his mouth and said, "Abu...... Anything else......? I didn't have enough to eat......"
Abu nodded, picked up the empty crockpot and ran out, and after a short time returned, each containing half a jar in the crockpot.
Bart was not polite, and after another burst of eating, the two crockpots were refined.
"Abu...... This dried fish and scones are so delicious! It doesn't have to be cooked by Uncle Niu at all!"
Abu laughed and said, "Brother Bart, have you eaten enough?"
Bart patted his stomach, and his body didn't hurt so much: "Well, you're full! Abu, you can eat too." ”
Abu smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Bart, you have eaten all my food for five days......"
Bart sighed, although he didn't have a good brain, he still knew some human feelings.
"That'...... What should I do? Abu, I ate all of yours, what are you going to do? I'm so sorry......"
Abu shook his head and said, "It's okay, Brother Bart, I'm the only one in the family anyway, I'll dig up some 'Prugan' later, and then go to the beach to pick up some seashells or something." It's just that...... I'll have to dig up more of your food. ”
Bart scratched his head and said, "Abu, what kind of root are you talking about, how do you dig it?"
Abu said: "No, no, you are not well yet, I will go by myself." ”
Bart lifted the tattered quilt that covered him, jumped down, and felt a little fluttery when his feet hit the ground, but it was all right after a while.
"Haha, Abu, you see, I'm fine, as long as I have something to eat, I'll be fine. ”
After speaking, Bart seemed to remember something, he looked at the ring on his hand, it seemed that Uncle Niu and his brother had told him that if he was left alone, he would open the ring, there was food and water in it, and there were some pills or something, but Bart frowned and thought about it for a long time and didn't think about how to use it, and finally hehe Yile stopped thinking about it.
Abu saw that the big man was really fine, so he nodded and said, "That's it, Brother Bart, I'll borrow a few baskets and tools, you can rest for a while, and then let's dig again, okay?"
Baton nodded and smiled: "Well, okay, then I'll wait for you here!"
Abu turned and ran out of the hut again, this time for a little longer, and returned for nearly an hour, with a large basket in her hand and a large basket behind her, in which were several farm tools, a sickle, a hoe, and some rope.
Abu pushed the door open and was happy to see it, it turned out that Bart had not even moved the place, and was meditating on his knees at this time, not moving at all.
Abu walked up to Bart and wanted to reach out and pat him on the shoulder, but as soon as he knew that his hand was on Barth's shoulder, he felt an invisible force pass over. Abu didn't stand still, but was pushed seven or eight paces away, and then fell to the ground.
Bart opened his eyes suddenly, and then hurriedly ran over to help Abu up and said, "Abu, my brother said that mosquitoes can't fall when I practice, probably my true qi bounced you away, are you okay?"
Abu's face was full of surprise: "Brother Bart, you are so powerful!
Bart didn't know what to be vindictive, so he just tilted his head and thought about it, and then said, "Hmm...... Probably...... Maybe...... Isn't it......"
Abu stood up while rubbing his buttocks: "Brother Bart, it turns out that you can still practice martial arts...... It hurts me......"
Bart said silly, "I'm sorry Abu, I'm ...... I didn't mean to......"
Abu shook his head and smiled: "It's okay, it's not your fault, it's because I didn't know that Brother Bart was practicing, so I was bounced off, by the way, I brought all the tools, let's go~"
"Well," Bart said, standing up and carrying a large basket, "let's go." ”
The two talked and laughed along the way, and after talking for a while, Abu also understood that Bart's mind was a little dull, but his personality was innocent and his heart was excellent. And Bart was also very happy, because when he was in the Hidden Dragon Valley, in addition to practicing, only Ah Duo accompanied him, but Ah Duo had never been out of the valley all year round, and he was far less experienced in the lives of ordinary people than Ah Bu.
Abu told Bart some interesting stories about the island of Minsk and the Empire, which made him laugh. Bart also wanted to tell Abu about the Hidden Dragon Valley, but because of his limited ability to express himself, he was confused by the last sentence and the next sentence.
The two walked for most of the day, and finally reached the edge of a forest.
Abu pointed to the towering tree in front of him and said, "Brother Bart, you see, this is the Puru tree, and the kind of scone you ate just now is made from the roots of this tree and grinds it into flour. ”
Barton nodded and said, "Well, it's delicious, so how do we dig it?"
Abu took out a small hoe, then walked over to a small Prussian tree, and dug a small hole in the dirt under the tree with a few strokes, revealing a yellow rhizome.
"Now, Brother Bart, you see, this is the edible Prugan, just cut it off with a scythe. ”
Bart had never done such farm work in the valley, and it was interesting to watch at this time, so he followed Abu's example and did it, but fortunately, his strength was infinite, and the true qi he had practiced was endless, and after an hour, the big basket behind the two of them was full.
Abu's hands were covered with dirt, and she wiped it on Bart's face, and immediately painted it into a melon, and the two of them laughed out loud, but they were also happy.
On the way back, Abu was a girl after all, and he was tired after digging up so many prugans. Bart didn't say much, he put Abu on his shoulder, and then picked up two large baskets with the other, as if they were nothing.
Facing the setting sun and the sea breeze, Abu sat on Bart's shoulder and sang again. The song was as graceful as a lark, and Bart just smiled and listened, feeling nothing but peace and joy in his heart.
When it got dark, the two finally returned home.
Although Bart cultivated very well, he was out of strength after all, although he was better, but he was still a little tired from this afternoon's work, so he fell asleep as soon as he touched his head on the pillow.
Abu tilted his head and looked at it for a while, smiled lightly, and went out of the house to dry the two baskets of prugan in the courtyard, and the sea breeze blew, and I was afraid that it would be done overnight, and tomorrow it could be ground into flour and made into scones. When all this work was done, it was already dark, and Abu looked for something to eat, and fell asleep beside Bart.
In the early morning of the next day, the two woke up one after another, went to the beach to pick up some shells and seafood, and ate some breakfast indiscriminately.
Abu said he was going to return the basket and tools, and Bart went along.
"Aunt Mei~~~Aunt Mei~~~" Abu shouted in front of a neat little courtyard, "Is Aunt Mei at home?"
After a while, a middle-aged woman walked out with a smile on her face.
"Yo, isn't this Abu?come in~~"
Abu pushed open the door and walked in, and before entering, he pulled Bart, meaning to come in with her, and Bart followed in with a hum.
Aunt Mei looked at Bart and smiled, "Abu, is this the young man you rescued a few days ago?
Abu put the big basket and tools neatly in a corner of the courtyard and said, "Aunt May, his name is Bart, Brother Bart, this is Aunt May, and she usually takes care of me. ”
Bart laughed a few times and said, "Aunt Mei, hello ......"
Aunt Mei saw that he was stupid and funny, and immediately laughed and said: "Little Abu, what, you still recognize a brother, it's good, your parents left early, and many people in the family accompanied us, so we can all rest assured." Silly boy, Abu is the best girl in our village, you can't leave her alone!"
Bart is honest, and after getting along for the past two days, he has long regarded Abu as a relative.
"Well, Aunt Mei, if someone dares to bully Abu, I will fight for my life, and I have to protect her!!"
Abu saw that Bart was very serious when he saw that Bart was very serious, and his heart was very moved, and his face was slightly red and said, "Aunt Mei! What are you talking about! Brother Bart is capable, how can he stay in this broken fishing village for me?"
Bart didn't know the meaning of Abu's words, but he still said seriously: "No, Abu, I will leave in the future, and I will take you with me, I know my brain is not good, but I ...... But I'm not stupid, you saved my life, and I will never leave you alone!"
After saying this, Abu's nose was sour, and tears immediately appeared in his eyes: "Brother Bart, you ...... Are you telling the truth?"
Bhatt nodded and said, "Well, Abu is Bart's relative...... Well, relatives like my brother!"
Abu wiped the corners of his eyes and was about to speak, only to hear a noise outside the courtyard, as if there were many people clamoring.
"Get out of the way!!, you broken fishing village, the monthly tax is always in arrears, this time the adults are here, no one wants to owe another copper!!
