新石器时代

Although the bed was narrow, it was not so crowded that it was unbearable when the two of them pressed together like two spoons.

Gu Xiaolu was about to close his eyes——

"Wait!" A question that had been held back for a long time flashed through his mind, and Gu Xiaolu felt that he would be suffocated if he didn't ask: "You! Why did you tell Brother Lei that you were my friend? We haven't met before, have we?! What do you mean? Will you know me? Why did you lie to him?!"

Asking all the questions in one breath, it was as fun as if the fart that had been held back for a long time was finally let out.

Ji Huaifeng shrugged his shoulders: "About a month ago, I met a man with a bow. He said that the bow was changed at your place, so I know your name. I came to Longhu Town. In order to change something. The reason why I lied to be your friend is because they—the two guards at the gate said that today is not a trading day, and I, an outsider, is not allowed in. They said that you went hunting, so I had to go to I searched for you all over town, and then tried to get you to bring me back with me. Then you knew—when I found you, you just happened to be overwhelmed by that dog."

Thinking about what happened today, it seems that this is indeed the case.In order to expand his popularity and expand the market for his "handicrafts", he would say his name repeatedly when changing food.It is normal to be remembered by one or two people.

But he immediately discovered the flaw: "Who are you lying to? When you killed that dog and asked me to bring it back with you, you didn't even know that I was Gu Xiaolu! I told you my name myself. !"

"Oh, that's because I recognized you right away. The bow changer said that you are easy to recognize. You are the only person in Longhu Town with a beard cut like a dog."

Gu Xiaolu: "Sleep!"

Gu Xiaolu always keeps his word, if he talks about sleeping, he really sleeps.It didn't take long for his snoring to penetrate the asbestos tiles above his head and rush into the endless space - at the same time, Ji Huaifeng's eardrums were also stimulated.

Ji Huaifeng turned around cautiously, raised his head, and looked at him by the remaining firelight in the firepit.

Ji Huaifeng has been watching for a long time.

The night is long.Before dawn, Gu Xiaolu woke up.

He slept very peacefully that night.In the past—whether it was when he was wandering around or after he settled down in Longhu Town—he always couldn't sleep well; when he fell asleep, he always had nightmares.Either dreaming of ferocious beasts chasing after him, or dreaming of a group of strange people with blood all over their faces trying to beat him to death and eat him.

So every day when I wake up, I feel tired as if I have peeled off a layer of skin.The nightmare continued for a long time, and his spirit deteriorated day by day.It is also related to his difficulty in hunting prey outside.

This is the first time today.When he woke up, he felt that he had really rested.

According to his full sleep, he guessed that it should be around eight o'clock in the morning.He rubbed his eyes, and through the gap in the wall, he saw that there were already people walking around with torches on the street outside.He closed his eyes and squinted for a while, thinking of the full meal he ate last night, he couldn't help but giggle again.

There was a slight snort beside him, and Ji Huaifeng was still deeply asleep.

Gu Xiaolu yawned and stretched as usual, getting ready to get up.Just when he was holding on to the straw mat and was about to get up, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

He was obviously only covered with a piece of sheepskin—that was what he bought with three bows—how could the sheepskin suddenly become very heavy, as if something was pressing on it?

It was still too dark to see anything.Gu Xiaolu screamed out in shock.

The thing pressing on him suddenly moved.He heard Ji Huaifeng's voice and asked in a daze, "Little Lu, what's wrong?"

"Don't move!" The hairs all over Gu Xiaolu's body stood up, "Ghost press the bed!"

Ji Huaifeng: "Huh?"

"Press me!"

"Oh."

There was a sound of dry grass under him, and the heavy thing on his body suddenly disappeared.

"It's gone." Ji Huaifeng said calmly, retracting his legs carefully in the dark.In order to strengthen the authenticity of this sentence, he added: "I stepped on me, it was very heavy."

Gu Xiaolu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fuck him! Love me, I don't even have paper to wipe my ass, and I don't have paper money to burn!"

Ji Huaifeng: ""

Gu Xiaolu got up cursing, stoked the fire in the firepit, and threw some dry firewood into it.The cabin finally lit up.Ji Huaifeng wiped his sweat silently, smoothing out his crumpled clothes.

When Ji Huaifeng just lay down, he could bear it, and only peeked at the back of Gu Xiaolu's head with the remaining light from the fire.Later, when Gu Xiaolu gradually fell asleep, he tried to put his arms on Gu Xiaolu's body.

Gu Xiaolu didn't wake up.

So Ji Huaifeng continued to work hard, leaned against him, and rubbed Gu Xiaolu into his arms like hugging a pillow, covering his whole body.He didn't expect that Gu Xiaolu would wake up first, and he didn't have time to take back his arms and legs resting on Gu Xiaolu's body.

Thanks to Gu Xiaolu, he thought it was a ghost press

Gu Xiaolu began to be busy roasting meat on the fire, as if he had no doubts about being oppressed by a ghost.

Ji Huaifeng sat against the wall with the sheepskin in his arms, and an evil thought popped up.

When Gu Xiaolu was oppressed, he thought he was oppressed by a ghost.So if something happened to him in his sleep, would he think it was the hands of a ghost and stop worrying about it?

He looked at Gu Xiaolu who was busy under the firelight, and his evil thoughts swelled up like an inflated ball.

Gu Xiaolu suddenly turned his head: "Hey! You are not allowed to eat and live for free! Today you will go hunting with me!"

Anyway, there is a man with a gun living in the house. If he doesn't borrow his gun to shoot more things, he will be McDull's grandson!Gu Xiaolu stared meaningfully at the bulge in Ji Huaifeng's waist, thinking beautifully.

Ji Huaifeng's face turned red.He jumped up like a carp, clutched his crotch and rushed out.

"Internal urgency."

Don't want people to know he has a gun?understandable.Gu Xiaolu grilled the salted meat, and continued to plan today's hunting action happily.

He usually only dares to find things like rabbits, squirrels, river fish, shrimps and crabs that have no resistance.Now that he had an extra helper, he began to fantasize about bigger animals like wild boars and goats.Of course, it's better not to meet a mad dog like yesterday again.

The sky finally brightened up.For the first time in three years, Gu Xiaolu felt the beauty of the morning.

Ji Huaifeng went out for a while before coming back.Gu Xiaolu noticed that his waist was no longer bulging.

How stingy to hide the gun so quickly.

Gu Xiaolu remained calm: "Can I find the toilet by myself?"

Ji Huaifeng's face was still red: "I can find it. Isn't it at the end of this street."

Damn it, can that pit in the earth surrounded by a circle of wood and not even covered by anything be called a toilet? !

"I forgot to tell you, when I'shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" Gu Xiaolu pointed to the back of the room with his thumb.

"Oh!"

No wonder!He always felt that there was such a vague smell!

"I'm timid, I don't dare to go that far at night." Gu Xiaolu turned the meat on the fire, saying it as a matter of course.

Ji Huaifeng shook his head in despair: "You"

"I'm so smart, aren't I?"

Gu Xiaolu opened his mouth and smiled, revealing two rows of neat small teeth in the beard that looked like a dog had gnawed on it.

Ji Huaifeng walked around his small room a few times, and suddenly said, "We won't be hunting today."

Gu Xiaolu shook his hand, and the stick with the barbecue almost fell into the fire: "Why?"

"Because we're going to dig a hole."

"What are you doing? Do you want to kill me and destroy my body?!"

"So that you don't have to go so far in the middle of the night to cough and cough, and solve the problem."

Gu Xiaolu understood.It turned out that his little habit was disgusted by this clean uncle.

"Uh, you're only staying here for a few days, so there's no need to bother." Gu Xiaolu began to blink pitifully, "I don't have any extra meat to pay you."

"I don't want your wages!"

"Well." Gu Xiaolu shook his head hesitantly, "But if I stay to dig a hole, I will have to pay the opportunity cost that I might catch prey today."

"I'll give you another ten catties of meat!"

"make a deal!"

Gu Xiaolu agreed too quickly, and Ji Huaifeng immediately regretted it.In fact, he can give less

However, Gu Xiaolu had already run out: "Wait a minute, let's grill some meat, I'll ask Lei Ge to borrow a shovel."

Ji Huaifeng sat on Gu Xiaolu's seat, casually turning over the half-cooked meat.

When the other half of the meat was cooked, he heard a strange noise, creaking, as if something was dying.

Then, like the asteroid that rushed towards the earth, his butt kissed the earth passionately.

He grabbed the meat and got up.Gu Xiaolu's baby bamboo chair has turned into a pile of bamboo strips.

Ji Huaifeng wanted to cry at the pile of bamboo strips.

"I'm back! Brother Lei is so damn happy!" Gu Xiaolu's voice rang out without delay, and his tone was as cheerful as a lark singing in the forest in the early morning.However, the moment he pushed the chaimen open——

"Oh my, my, my little stool!!"

The old shovel in his hand fell to the ground with a "dang".

The lark's song turned into the crow's howl in an instant.

"What evil did I do? You want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person like this. I'm sorry for you, my little stool. You and I have been with me for three years. I crush you every day and you don't make a sound. You work hard and do your best. I lost you and me. How can I live my life, ah, my little stool"

After hanging out with the film king for a long time, he has more or less some acting skills.Now Gu Xiaolu has used all his abilities.

Ji Huaifeng handed him a bunch of meat.

"Cry when you're full."

Gu Xiaolu wiped away tears that didn't exist, took a big bite of the meat skewer and continued to cry: "One year ago, my old man used a foot to make you, and you were so oily back then, how amazing it is!" "resistant"

Ji Huaifeng: "Really."

I roared in my heart: You cry, you cry, I see how long you can pretend!

Gu Xiaolu bit again: "I'm not good at all! I shouldn't be greedy for those few catties, and let a bad silver live in my house. I'm sorry you're sweeping me now, but it can't make up for my pain. ah"

Ji Huaifeng could tell.He silently glanced at the bacon in the stone jar in the corner of the house, and sighed, "Is ten catties of meat enough to compensate for your little stool?"

"Twenty!" Gu Xiaolu countered quickly and clearly.

"it is good."

Gu Xiaolu took a bite of the meat, gathered up the bamboo sticks on the ground and threw them into the fire pond: "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, go back to where you came from, I will miss you forever, Amen!"

The fire erupted in an instant, and the bamboo strips were quickly burned to a pile of ashes.

Gu Xiaolu bit off the last bite of meat, quickly picked up the shovel and put it in Ji Huaifeng's hands, "Let's go, let's dig a hole."

Longhu Town was built on the ruins of a small town.The original ruins are full of ruins, and the places where they can build new houses are the original roads or open spaces, so the houses are quite far apart.Ji Huaifeng pinched his nose and walked around Gu Xiaolu's house, and finally chose a location ten steps away to build a new toilet.

Gu Xiaolu protested: "It's too far away."

Ji Huaifeng fanned his nose with his hands: "It will stink if you get close."

Gu Xiaolu intentionally sniffed around: "It stinks, I'm used to it."

Ji Huaifeng: "Just take a step closer. It can't be any closer."

Gu Xiaolu smiled brightly: "Let's do it."

Gu Xiaolu said "we", but it was Ji Huaifeng who actually dug the soil.

Gu Xiaolu put his hands behind his back and said apologetically, "It's a pity that Brother Lei and the others only have such a shovel, otherwise I can dig together."

It's true that Lei Ge and the others only have one shovel.It's just that Gu Xiaolu forgot to mention that Lei Ge and the others still have a lot of hoes, shovels and other tools that can be used for digging.

When the soldiers first arrived at this place, they collected all the intact tools in the ruins, and then let the people in the town use them in turn.Because everyone can use it, everyone is quite satisfied with this arrangement.

The actor often sighs that after the catastrophe, the world has realized communism at the speed of light.

Ji Huaifeng used both hands and feet, sweating profusely: "No need. You just need to pick up all the earthworms in the soil.

Gu Xiaolu frowned, looking at the earthworms that were alive and kicking in the newly dug up soil: "But if I'm not used to eating earthworms, I'd better not harm them."

"Who told you to eat them? I want to keep them for fishing."

"Oh."

After a moment.

"You don't have to be so active. Just a few are enough for us to fish for a day."

Ji Huaifeng was very depressed.Ever since he mentioned "fishing", Gu Xiaolu took two small wooden sticks and clamped every earthworm he could see into a bamboo tube.

At the back, every time Ji Huaifeng threw out a shovel of soil, he would go up and take a closer look.Ji Huaifeng almost spilled the soil on him several times.

Gu Xiaolu was still crawling on the mound of earth looking for earthworms: "What will I do after you leave? I can't borrow shovels every day - I want to raise them, and take a few when I have time Fishing, hahaha—"

Gu Xiaolu laughed too recklessly, Ji Huaifeng had nothing to say.So after the harsh laughter, there was only the monotonous sound of shoveling dirt among them.

After a long time, the soil dug up by Ji Huaifeng has piled up into a hill, and the earthworms Gu Xiaolu caught almost filled the bamboo tube.Ji Huaifeng said suddenly: "I'm not leaving."

Ji Huaifeng said suddenly: "I'm not leaving."

"Ah?" Gu Xiaolu was a little confused, "Didn't you come to exchange things?"

Ji Huaifeng stopped, stuck the shovel into the soil, and said solemnly: "I think this place is very good, and I want to stay. So you don't have to be afraid—uh, you won't be able to dig earthworms in the future."

He wanted to slap himself after he finished speaking.The logical relationship in this is too far-fetched.

Although my original intention was to reassure Gu Xiaolu and stop worrying about food every day like this, but the effect of what I said was completely different.

As expected, Gu Xiaolu was not moved at all.

"You know the rules of Longhu Town, right? When a newcomer enters the town, he must first honor the guards of the town with [-] catties of fresh meat or [-] catties of dried meat. The protection fee for the first six months is twice as much as that of others. You have caught the prey Go talk to them again." After finishing speaking, he muttered: "This area is really not a good place for hunting, and you don't know much about crafts, so I really don't know what you are staying for."

To put it bluntly, this town relies on once every ten days

Live the trading day.There are hundreds of people in the town, and few of them earn their living by serious hunting.In the words of the civilized age, everyone is engaged in the tertiary industry.Those who come from afar often live in the town a few days in advance in order to exchange more things in the town, and then go out to run around the mountains every day to catch animals.

A few came back after hitting their prey, but many more never showed up again.

——That’s because more people went hunting, and the ferocious beasts gradually realized that it was particularly easy to catch people around the small town, and rushed over to camp in groups, lying in the dark and ready to attack humans at any time.Just like the big wolfhound that attacked Gu Xiaolu, it should have come from elsewhere.

So it can also be said that outside the town is a very good hunting ground, a hunting ground for beast hunters.

Ji Huaifeng looked like a hunter with well-developed limbs and a simple mind, who didn't know any skills.How much can he hit with that gun alone?And the ammunition will run out soon.At that time, he will either be eaten by wild beasts or starve to death

Gu Xiaolu felt that it was better for him not to stay.Of course, it's best to hunt more prey for himself before he leaves.

Unexpectedly, Ji Huaifeng firmly said: "I can learn a craft - I can dig a hole!"

Gu Xiaolu: "Even if everyone asks you to dig a hole, what will happen after the digging is over? The wages others give you are not enough to pay the protection fee. What do you eat?"

Ji Huaifeng didn't speak.

Gu Xiaolu patted him on the shoulder and concluded his statement: "Brother, it's hard to live in a big city."

Ji Huaifeng: "Big City"

Gu Xiaolu suddenly had a flash of inspiration.A big word flashed in my mind: ready-made labor, don't waste it.
