Gu Xiaolu fell to the ground, beating his chest and stamping his feet.

"You fucking bastard, you lied to me! Why do you think I'm taking you in well! I can't even eat enough! I'm not full yet!"

Ji Huaifeng remained expressionless: "You were full yesterday, and you are full today too."

Gu Xiaolu was stunned for a moment, and continued to wail: "If I keep you, don't you just point at you and give me a few more catties of meat? If you don't have that, you'll be beaten! If you don't have that, you won't be with the man." It’s like a child, if it’s useless, you can go away.”

Ji Huaifeng's face was full of black lines: "You've never had it before, do you mean that you were born useless?"

Gu Xiaolu: ""

Ji Huaifeng asked him back: "And at the beginning, I only said that I would stay, and I didn't ask for your help, right? Later, you took the initiative to accept me as an apprentice and teach me crafts."

Gu Xiaolu: ""

He regretted so much that his intestines twisted into a ball.It's true that he wanted a free labor force, but at the very beginning, what he was looking for was that Ji Huaifeng had a gun. With that gun, he would be able to eat a few more meals no matter what.

Gu Xiaolu threw the bow on the ground: "You can figure out what to do with the one hundred catties of meat. At worst, I will kill a few more rabbits and I won't do it."

Ji Huaifeng picked up the bow and handed it to him: "But I don't know the way, and I don't know where to hunt prey, so please help me lead the way."

Gu Xiaolu lowered his head and squinted at him: "Leading the way again? What benefits can I get?"

Ji Huaifeng had no choice but to say, "Whether the meat I hunt is enough for a hundred catties or not, I will give you half of it." After finishing speaking, looking at Gu Xiaolu's still suspicious eyes, he said, "All the meat you hunted yourself belongs to you. .”

I secretly said in my heart, I really owed you too much in the past, and now I should repay it no matter how I do it.

Gu Xiaolu jumped up: "Actually, my bow and arrow are still very powerful, and it's not hopeless to hit a hundred catties."

Even without the gun, Ji Huaifeng is still tall and big with thick arms and legs.Go hunting with him, even if you can't find anything, you still feel more secure.

What's more, the vines he cut back for shoe-weaving tools are almost used up, and this time he went out to replenish some

It was already noon, and it would be dark in a few hours, so they rushed out of town at a trot.

"Animals also need to drink water. Although they run all over the mountain, they will return to the water to drink water when they are tired. Let's find a place with water and squat, maybe we can catch water birds." Ji Huaifeng spoke confidently, holding the bow in his hand and kept practicing pulling the string.

Gu Xiaolu took him back to the river yesterday without saying a word.

The river is curved, curved and long, and you can't see the end or the end.

"The animals near this river will definitely go to the river to drink water, but the river is too long. I don't know how likely they are to run right in front of us."

Ji Huaifeng: "Forget it, let's find another place."

Gu Xiaolu nodded, turned around, and led him into the dense forest.A few days ago, he was almost bitten to death by a dog here, he was terrified, and he held on to the quiver behind Ji Huaifeng's back tightly, turning his head every step of the way.

Ji Huaifeng turned his head and smiled: "That thing is not strong, you can hold my arm." He stretched out his half-rolled sleeve arm, looked at him encouragingly and nodded.

Ji Huaifeng had many scars on his hands, but his forearm was well protected.The wheat-colored skin wraps tight and powerful muscles, which looks quite attractive.Gu Xiaolu stared at it for a while, then rushed over like a dog grabbing a bone, and hugged him.

Ji Huaifeng was a little surprised: "Don't be so anxious, be careful—why are you drooling?"

Gu Xiaolu wiped the corner of his mouth generously, "Your arms are so pretty."

Ji Huaifeng's face became hot, and his heart felt numb: "Oh."

If he had known that the temptation of undressing would be useful, he would just strip himself naked and wash it up and send it to Gu Xiaolu, wouldn't that be the end of it?Why did he ignore that Gu Xiaolu is also a man, and men always think with their lower body

The wild is still a bit too dangerous, let's talk about it when we go back

Gu Xiaolu paused, and then added: "When I saw it, I thought of the grilled chicken wings from the past. The chicken wings are so delicious and tender."

Ji Huaifeng: "Really?"

He really wanted to pinch Gu Xiaolu's neck and ask, how could such a beautiful arm look like a chicken's wing? !

After thinking about it again, he fell silent again.

There is certainly a connection between his hands and grilled chicken wings.Once, they had a barbecue on the beach of an island.Gu Xiaolu was fond of catching crabs by himself, and he roasted all the meat before handing it over to Gu Xiaolu.

There are of course a lot of chicken wings in a large box of roasted meat.

Gu Xiaolu remembered the chicken wings, but forgot the hand that handed them to him, and the person who grilled them for him.

But Ji Huaifeng would rather he never think about it again.As long as the other person is still here, those memories that are not pleasant are nothing.

"Hey, what's the matter?" Gu Xiaolu glared at him, "Angry? I just said that I thought of chicken wings, and I didn't say that your arms look like chicken wings—and I don't even want to eat you! Cannibals!"

Ji Huaifeng wiped the corner of his eyes with the other hand: "No, it's nothing. I just want to eat grilled chicken wings too."

Gu Xiaolu suddenly tiptoed to cover his mouth, then let go, and pointed to a tree in front of him.

With sharp eyes, Ji Huaifeng immediately spotted the sparrow hidden among the leaves.

"It's too small, forget it." Ji Huaifeng pulled off his hand, "It's troublesome to go back and deal with it, if you want to hit it, you can hit it big." Although he spoke very quietly, the sparrow quickly flew away with its wings flapping up.

Gu Xiaolu rolled his eyes at him: "When the time comes, you won't be able to hit anything, so don't regret it!"

Ji Huaifeng curled his lips: "If it doesn't work, I'll kill you. Although you are thin, you still have a hundred catties of belt and bones."

Gu Xiaolu shut his mouth, kept his eyes on his nose, his nose and his heart, and walked forward with his arm in his arms.

His foot accidentally kicked something.The thing rolled and disappeared into the grass.

Ji Huaifeng heard the sound and put the arrow on the bow vigilantly.Gu Xiaolu smiled at him and raised his bow himself.

"fine."

Witnessing so many deaths is mind-numbingly numerous that they have long since learned to ignore them.

Since people have died here, this is probably the hunting ground for wild beasts.

This is indeed a good place for "hunting".The corner formed by the stone wall at the foot of the mountain has already surrounded half of the space. As long as the ferocious beast blocks people inside, it will be difficult for people to fly even if they have wings.

Ji Huaifeng observed the surrounding terrain carefully, and pointed to a tree beside the stone wall: "Let's go up."

Gu Xiaolu squinted: "I thought no one would do such a thing as sitting on the sidelines now."

Ji Huaifeng climbed to the lowest tree branch, stretched out his hand, and said without doubt: "Come up."

Gu Xiaolu stuck out his tongue, spit into the palm of his hand, rubbed his hands, and climbed up by himself.He triumphantly sat on another higher branch, "Master, I have learned to climb trees before."

Ji Huaifeng thought to himself: That's not what I taught

"Tell me, what do you want to do here? Dig out a bird's nest? Is there a bird's nest here for you?"

"Of course it's not okay to wait for the rabbit, but it's still okay to wait for the beast."

"Do you think it's any different than sitting by the river and waiting for the beast to come to us and drink?"

Ji Huaifeng thought about it seriously, and then said seriously: "No."

Gu Xiaolu really wanted to kick him down.

Looking up at the sky, although I still can't see the sun, I can tell that the day is almost over.

"Then what are we doing now?"

"Just talk, chat. The beast will come by itself when it hears our voices."

"and then?"

"Either it dies, or we die."

Gu Xiaolu felt chilly.He suddenly thought of a very serious matter: "What if there are many, many beasts coming? They can definitely bring down this tree."

Ji Huaifeng bent his fingers and tapped the tree trunk as thick as a bucket, "Then we're in bad luck."

Gu Xiaolu covered his face with his hands in grief: "It would be great if your gun still had bullets."

Ji Huaifeng: ""

Gu Xiaolu hugged the tree with one hand, and grabbed Ji Huaifeng's sleeve with the other: "Where's your gun? Even if it's out of bullets, don't throw it away!"

"How could I throw it away! I just hid it."

Gu Xiaolu thought for a while and said, "Don't hide it either. You can't use it for hunting if you run out of bullets, but it's okay to use it to frighten people."

Ji Huaifeng smiled wryly: "It's been so long, the living people are either mature or not afraid of death, don't talk about guns, they are not afraid even if you carry an atomic bomb. Xiaolu—" He felt that now is the time Said those words, "Now these things are useless, you understand? They are all useless. Let alone my gun, it is the old soldiers in the town, don't care if they have a machine gun or a submachine gun, sooner or later One day will be useless! Do you understand?"

Gu Xiaolu stared wide-eyed and blinked: "Aren't there a lot of them?"

Although the expression on his face was puzzled, he was really scared in his heart.Longhu Town claims to be safe, but this safety is based on the thirty or so people and their weapons.Of course the most important thing is their weapons.Without guns and ammunition, they are no different from any ordinary people in the world today.

Ji Huaifeng explained patiently: "There is no arsenal in this world anymore. Even if they have an arsenal, they will run out of it one day. What's more, their original station is not here. You also said that they are wandering around. It took a long time to come here after walking a lot of places. At that time, the traffic was paralyzed. How much do you think they could carry with their hands, shoulders, and two feet? Now it’s been three years Years, and there must be a lot of wear and tear in between. How long do you think they can last with guns and ammunition left?"

"This"

It's not that Gu Xiaolu hasn't thought about this question.But the memories of those terrible wanderings in the past made him force himself not to think about it.When it was really impossible, he thought optimistically: even if the mayor and the others ran out of bullets, they would still be able to maintain the safety of the town with stones, bows and arrows.When he was really not optimistic, he thought, anyway, he has enjoyed a safe life here for so long, and compared with people outside the town, he still makes money.

"Xiao Lu, although Longhu Town looks very peaceful, but the people in the town seem to be very friendly, but in fact they are in charge of their own affairs behind the scenes. No one is willing to help others, and they are afraid that others will do the same thing as themselves. Things grab business. Let’s talk about the beasts outside this town. They clearly know that there are a lot of prey outside. As long as a few people, a dozen people work together to dig him for two or three days, they can dig a trap. It’s not very convenient to hunt like that Is it? But no one is willing to do this. They have been fed up by the environment in the town. They would rather stay in the town to buy and sell or do some deceitful handicrafts in exchange for food, rather than go out to hunt by themselves. In case, I said in case One, the ammunition of the mayor and those people has finally run out, and they can no longer protect you. People outside come in casually to grab things, wild beasts rush in and bite people casually. Do you think the people in the town will willingly listen to them and give them Do you pay any protection fee transaction tax? This town is finished! No one will care about you then! What are you going to do?"

"I"

Ji Huaifeng's description was really scary, Gu Xiaolu couldn't help scratching his head.

"What should I do!" His thinking was driven to a desperate situation, but a sense of grandeur emerged spontaneously: "Didn't I live well without this town? Who said I couldn't live alone?"

Ji Huaifeng laughed sarcastically: "That's right, you won't starve to death if you kill a crow today and catch a bamboo rat tomorrow. Haven't you thought about a better life?"

"I—" Gu Xiaolu instinctively wanted to refute that I had a good life.But thinking about it again, that momentum is gone again.

"Little Lu, come with me. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, the sooner we leave, the better!"

The words that had been brewing for a long time finally came out, and the corners of Ji Huaifeng's eyes became moist.

Gu Xiaolu pouted: "Why do you want me to go with you? I only know that they still have guns and bullets, but you have nothing."

Ji Huaifeng gritted his teeth, I will bear it, I will bear it.

After a long silence, Ji Huaifeng said: "They will never protect you if they run out of bullets. But as long as I have breath, I will not let others bully you." After finishing speaking, he was afraid that Gu Xiaolu would not believe it. As if, he emphasized his tone: "I will do what I say, and I will never break my word. Xiaolu, come with me."
