Infinite Armory

Chapter 4 Salvation

() Ye Zheng himself did not know how long he had been in a coma. When he was just a little conscious, in a daze, a rough and thin hand supported his head, and slowly poured him two bowls of distilled water. After eating a few bowls of porridge, Ye Zheng's complexion improved obviously, and his mind gradually became clear.

At this time, a boy's voice rang in his ears: "Mother, can he survive?"

Rough hands gently put Ye Zheng's head down, and a woman's voice said displeasedly: "Dahu, don't talk nonsense, this little brother is just too hungry, drink a few bowls of gruel and relax slowly." It's all right, let's go, let's go out and chop the firewood first, let him rest for a while."

After finishing speaking, Ye Zheng only heard a "squeak" from the door, and walked out with two footsteps in tandem. After a while, there was a sound of crackling firewood outside.

After more than ten minutes, Ye Zheng felt that his weak physical strength had recovered a lot, so he slowly opened his eyes and looked around.

He found himself lying in a simple and old log cabin. The walls of the room were covered with furs of wild beasts, and many ancient farming implements were placed in the corners. There were also two wooden longbows hung on the right side of the door. , the bow is dark and old, stained and stained, presumably the owner of this house must be a hunter.With the golden sunset shining in through the crack of the door, Ye Zheng estimated that it was about five or six o'clock in the evening. After calculating the time, he probably fell into a coma around eight o'clock in the morning. Didn't he have been unconscious for nearly ten days now? hour.

Thinking of myself fainting from starvation in the wilderness in the morning, if this hunter had not kindly rescued me, I would probably have died by now. Thinking of this, I couldn’t help but feel grateful to this kind hunter, and struggled to get up from the bed, Prepare to go out and thank people face to face.

Pushing open the simple wooden door, Ye Zheng came outside the house and saw a [-]-year-old black and thin boy chopping firewood with an ax on the field outside the house. The village women are busy picking up the split firewood one by one and placing them neatly under the eaves.The village woman was about forty years old, she was dressed plainly, and her face was thin and yellow. Although her face was covered with some wrinkles and sweat, she looked so kind and simple.

Seeing Ye Zheng walk out of the room, the young man who was chopping firewood immediately smiled kindly at him, showing his white teeth.At this time, the village woman also looked up at Ye Zheng, and said with a smile on her face: "Little brother, you woke up, do you feel better now?"

Ye Zheng was full of gratitude in his heart at this time, and walked quickly to the two of them, and suddenly knelt on the ground with a "plop". "My aunt's life-saving grace, I...I really don't know how to repay you, please accept my worship..."

"Little brother, what are you doing? Get up quickly, get up quickly, you haven't recovered yet, so you can't make such a fuss." Seeing Ye Zheng suddenly prostrating on the ground, the village woman hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, and turned her head to see the woodcutter boy He was looking at this side in a daze, and said displeasedly: "You child, why are you so dazed, why don't you hurry up and help this little brother up!"

Hearing this, the young man hurriedly dropped his ax and ran over. Together with the village woman, he hurriedly lifted up Ye Zheng who was kneeling on the ground.

With the support of the young man and the village woman, Ye Zheng was sent back to the house by their mother. The kind village woman kept nagging, saying that he should lie on the bed for a long time and take a good rest. You can't run around, otherwise it will be bad for your body's recovery.

Hearing the village woman's caring nagging, Ye Zheng's heart felt warm, which reminded him of his mother who had passed away for many years. Back then, like her, her mother kept nagging in his ear all day long, saying this and that. Well, thinking of this, Ye Zheng's eyes turned red, and he couldn't help lying on the wooden bed obediently.Looking at the wrinkled and kind face, Ye Zheng found that the words of gratitude he had prepared were so pale and superfluous.

The village woman covered Ye Zheng with a quilt carefully, and said with a smile: "Little brother, you can rest at ease now, and I will cook dinner later and cook some broth for you to nourish your body." After finishing speaking, He closed the door and left.

Hearing the caring words of this kind village woman, Ye Zheng was even more grateful in his heart, and secretly decided in his heart that after he recovered, he must repay them well.

How should I repay this kind family?

Ye Zheng thought about it for a long time, and now he has no money, no gold and silver treasures, the only thing he has is a few humble jade pendants, but who knows if these things are worth money?Looking at the animal furs and longbows hanging on the wall, he couldn't help but think, "Since they are hunters, I will help them hunt more prey in the future to repay them. Anyway, I have pistol bullets, so I should Stronger than their bows and arrows, well, what to do. Hey? It’s over, why is my pistol missing? It’s over, it’s over, didn’t it fall on the mountain before fainting?”

Ye Zheng touched his chest and found that the pistols were missing. He turned pale in shock and couldn't help but search around the room. Finally, he found them on the small wooden table next to the bed.Three pistols and a few boxes of ammunition were placed on it. It must have been that the village woman took them out of her clothes because she was afraid that they would make her uncomfortable.

"Wang Wang!"

At this time, there was a burst of excited dog barking from far outside the house, and at the same time, a young boy's sonorous voice came in. "Brother, mother, I came back from the trap up and down the mountain, what did you see?"

"What a big pheasant! Xiaohu, you are lucky today." The firewood chopping boy laughed.

The village woman said with a smile: "Now it's time to stew some chicken soup for my little brother to try out. Dahu, hurry up and boil some boiling water, and the chicken feathers will fade away later."

At this time, the boy named Xiaohu asked: "Mother, how is the man we rescued from the mountain this morning?"

"The little brother, he has already woken up, and he should be fine after a while. Now go and help your brother light the fire, and mother has to wash rice and cook dinner."

"Okay!..."

At dinner, Ye Zheng, the village woman, their mother and son ate around a wooden table. It could be seen that their life was very poor. Apart from the pheasant in the pot, there were two bowls of unknown food. The rice grains in the rice bowl are very yellow and rough, and there is a faint musty smell in the mouth. One can tell that the quality of the rice is very low. It is completely different from the white and soft Thai fragrant rice that Ye Zheng often ate in his previous life. , Pearl rice is very different.

Although the food is not very rich and not delicious, Ye Zheng is very happy to eat it. It can be imagined that if a person has been starved for five days without eating properly, even eating grass roots and bark will taste delicious now Besides, at the dinner table, the village woman and her family were very enthusiastic, and they kept adding vegetables and chicken for him. The chicken legs and wings of a pheasant and other meaty parts basically went into Ye Zheng's stomach.

So, that night, he ate very full, and he had never been so full in his life.

After a meal, Ye Zheng became acquainted with their family. When the village woman asked about his life experience, he made up an excuse to fool him, saying that his hometown was hit by a disaster, and he fled here. , I can't tell them that I have traveled from the earth. Anyway, the people in the mountain village are simple and kind, and I don't doubt that what he said is false.

After talking with the village woman, I learned that her name is Chen Daogu, and people in the village generally call her Chen Gu. She was married to this small mountain village by a matchmaker 20 years ago, and her husband was arrested by the government five years ago. After the man was arrested and sent to labor, he never came back. It is said that he died of exhaustion while repairing the defenses at Cangliang Pass.At that time, Aunt Chen became a widow with two children under the age of ten, and her life was very difficult. She often ate her last meal without a second meal. The two children also starved to death long ago.Therefore, when they saw Ye Zheng who was dying of hunger, they decided to rescue them without hesitation, because they were rescued by others in the same way back then.

The small mountain village where Aunt Chen lives is called Niujia Village. There are only [-] households in the village. Basically all of them rely on hunting for their livelihood. Moreover, everyone in the village has the surname Niu, and her two sons are called Niu Dahu. Wagyu and Tiger.The two brothers are twins, and Dahu is the elder brother. He is dark and thin, but his personality is more stable and sensible.Xiaohu is the younger brother, he is black and strong, with brute strength, but his personality is very hot and impulsive, and he often fights with others when he disagrees with others. For this reason, he often makes Aunt Chen angry.

In addition, Ye Zheng also vaguely learned from Aunt Chen that they belong to the people of the Dalie Empire, and that the Niujia Village they live in is a small town on the border of the Qingjiang County of the Dalie Empire. The governor is Prince Liang. I heard that Prince Liang seems to be a son of the Emperor of Dalie Kingdom. Because he was granted the feudal title, he was ordered to come to Qingjiang County to take up the feudal domain. At the same time, the entire Qingjiang County is also the fief of King Liang. He is the entire The supreme ruler of Qingjiang County.

Ye Zheng was dumbfounded after hearing these unfamiliar information from Aunt Chen!

Great Empire?Qingjiang County?

What the hell, what the hell is this place?Why hasn't it been heard of before in history?Could it be that the world after his rebirth is not the historical world he is familiar with?

After thinking for a long time, Ye Zheng finally understood that he had come to a strange era completely different from what was recorded in history, and this was a strange world.But the only thing that can make Ye Zheng rejoice is that although this world is unfamiliar, but through various aspects of understanding and observation, he is sure that this world still belongs to the era of cold weapons, as long as it is the era of cold weapons, then the unlimited arms he owns The library will come in handy, and here, too, you can realize your dream of warlord overlord.

Thinking of this, Ye Zheng's mood improved a lot. In order to learn more about this strange world, he listened and asked Aunt Chen a lot of questions, but Aunt Chen couldn't answer many of them, because she had been there before in her life. The farthest place was the market in the town, and she never went to other places. Even the things she just told Ye Zheng were basically heard from others.

After Ye Zheng chatted with Aunt Chen and his son for a while, seeing that it was getting late, they were all ready to go to bed.Since Aunt Chen's house only had beds in two rooms, Ye Zheng, Da Hu and Xiao Hu could only squeeze together in one room.

Before going to bed, the two brothers, Big Hu and Little Hu, saw Ye Zheng sitting by the bed, wiping the pistol with a rag, and asked curiously, "Brother Ye, what is that iron bump in your hand? It's so strange, we've never seen it before." .”

Ye Zheng chuckled, and made it up casually: "This thing is a hidden weapon, which has been passed down from the ancestors for self-defense and life-saving. It is very powerful."

When Xiaohu heard it, he regained his spirits, and hurriedly leaned over and asked: "Is the hidden weapon real or not? How powerful is it? Can you shoot a fox?"

Ye Zheng said proudly when he heard it: "Cut, what's the point of shooting a fox, let alone a fox with my hidden weapon, even if it's a wild boar or a black bear, I can still shoot it!"

The two brothers, Big Tiger and Little Tiger, rolled their eyes when they heard this. "Bragging, with such a small piece of iron in your hand, you still want to shoot tigers and giant bears, it's just bragging! Niu Sanyan, the best hunter in our Niujia Village, uses a good elm bow with an iron wood sword head You can only shoot an adult roe deer at a distance of thirty steps (approximately 36 meters). Is this weapon in your hand stronger than the three-eyed brother's elm bow?"

Seeing the disbelief on the faces of the two brothers, Ye Zheng couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly: "This thing in my hand is not powerful. I will go hunting with you in the mountains in a few days and you will know?"

After hearing Ye Zheng's words, the two brothers yawned disapprovingly and went to bed.
