Those years when I was a corpse guard in Yizhuang

Chapter 5 Pity the world's parents heart
After the wool is gathered, the snake carcass cannot be wasted.

This snake is big enough, and there is still three or four catties of meat after cleaning the internal organs.

Li Yu simply cut off half of his body, left half to hang on the beam in the bedroom, and scraped off the snake scales from the remaining half, chopped it into sections, and made it directly into snake soup.

There is no seasoning in it, just a little salt for seasoning.

After it is done, the fresh and tender snake meat is rolled with snake skin, and the surface of the snake soup is still oily.

After a sip, although the taste was a bit lighter, it was very fresh, especially the pieces of snake meat, which were tender, juicy and trembling. He was very satisfied to eat it, and Li Yu almost swallowed it with his tongue.

Compared with the bland and rough brown rice wild vegetables, this snake meat is simply delicious!

Eat up the snake meat, even drink up the soup.

The dishes and chopsticks were washed and put away, the door was closed, and Li Yu got into bed.

Thinking of the suspected evil white shadow he saw on the road when he came back from the town, Li Yu felt terrified, and put the hatchet next to the pillow.

Although the hatchet may not be able to deal with evil spirits and ghosts, at least it can provide him with a sense of security.

Li Yu reckoned, it should be ten o'clock now.If it was his previous life, he should be lying on the sofa holding his mobile phone at this moment, comfortably scrolling through short videos.

However, in this world, apart from making babies, the poor at the bottom of society seem to have no nightly entertainment that they like to see.

And staying up late is not a good habit.

Keeping the quilt well, Li Yu fell asleep in a daze.

All night.

In the next few days, nothing special happened except that Lang Wu's body was taken away by the villagers of Guojia Village and buried.

However, Li Yu has not been idle these days. Before the heavy snow fell, he cut a lot of dry firewood in the back mountain with a machete, and piled them neatly in the corner.

By the way, I also made some simple traps, set up a pheasant and a rabbit, and caught several hibernating snakes and toads.

As for the harvest of corpses.

It can only be said that it is not worth mentioning.

And with the help of Yang An, Li Yu simply cleared up a small field in front of Yizhuang, planning to plant some fruits and vegetables next spring.

Li Yu thought clearly, since he has come, he will be safe. Now that he has come to this world, he should integrate into this world as soon as possible.

In addition, the female ghost from the previous night still left Li Yu with lingering fears and a little uneasiness.

He also thought about whether he should learn some martial arts, Taoism, etc., so as to enhance his own strength and protect himself.

But let's not talk about the illusory Taoism and supernatural powers. When it comes to martial arts, Li Yu only knows that in these ten miles and eight villages, except for Huang Butou and Kuai Qutou in the town, only a few hunters in the mountains have learned it. A little martial arts.The only one left is Li Datou, the pig butcher in the town, who walked darts with others when he was young and learned a few rough moves.

As the saying goes, poor culture and rich military.

If you want to learn martial arts, you must first have money, and at least you must ensure that you often have meat to eat and supplement nutrition, so that you can strengthen your body.

Otherwise, even if you are lucky, if you learn martial arts from martial arts gyms and bodyguards, if you don't have enough meat and nutrition, you will overdraw your blood energy and potential over time, and practice yourself directly.

If it is in a modern society with abundant materials, it is naturally not a big problem.

But in this kind of environment where they can't even eat enough and can't eat meat a few times a year, it is almost impossible for ordinary people to support a warrior.

Only a small number of rich households in the countryside and rich landowners may be able to support one or two serious warriors.

If warriors want to go further, they also need precious medicinal materials such as tiger bones, snow lotus, leopard embryos, ginseng, and bear bile to nourish the body, replenish vitality, and strengthen muscles and bones.

These are all guessed by Li Yu based on what the old cripple once said.

It is not easy for Li Yu to learn martial arts.

First of all, he has no money, and secondly, where he can learn martial arts is also a problem.

"If I can get a few corpses of warriors, after burying them, I wonder if I can scrape out the martial arts from those warriors."

Such a thought suddenly flashed in Li Yu's mind.

On this day, Li Yu had just woken up, had something to eat, and was sitting at the door basking in the sun, when he saw a group of people with heavy faces coming from a distance, some of them were still carrying thick and long wooden sticks in their hands.

Behind these people, there was an old man with a haggard face and gray hair.

"This is... the old shopkeeper of the tavern."

Li Yu's eyes were fixed, and he quickly got up to meet him.

When he came to the old shopkeeper, Li Yu saluted slightly: "The junior Li Yu has seen the old man."

The old man was getting old, he was out of breath after walking a section of the mountain road, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he waved his hand: "Brother Li, you are welcome, I am here today for my unfilial son."

After saying that, he became a little choked up, and the two cloudy old eyes were full of tears, full of grief.

Li Yu sighed in his heart, not knowing what to say.

Pity the parents of the world.

For parents, there is probably nothing more tragic than a white-haired person sending a black-haired person.

When he arrived at Yizhuang, the old shopkeeper had the coffin pushed away. Seeing Chen Zhuo's stiff and lifeless face, he was silent for a moment, and suddenly slapped him.

Snapped!
A crisp sound!
This slap hit Chen Zhuo firmly on the face.

After smoking, the old shopkeeper burst into tears, and his emotions suddenly collapsed: "You are not filial!"

Everyone was silent and let the old shopkeeper vent.

After a while, the old shopkeeper managed to regain his composure, stood up tremblingly, and then waved someone to close the coffin and carry it away.

After the coffin-carrying coolies left, the old shopkeeper stuffed a palm-sized cloth bag to Li Yu, and patted him on the shoulder:

"My son has been taken care of by my little brother these days. This is a little bit of care from this old man."

Feeling the heavy cloth bag in his hand, Li Yu's heart moved slightly, and said, "Old shopkeeper, isn't this too much?"

The old shopkeeper waved his hand, turned and left.

"there's one more thing."

Walking to the door, he turned his head slightly, and gave Li Yu a steady look: "The cause of my unfilial son's death has been found out, it was my nephew who did it, and he has been arrested and brought to justice by the Qu arrester in the town."

"Since then, it's over, let's say goodbye."

After that, he staggered away.

Only Li Yu was thinking in place.

After a long time, he shook his head and sighed: "Ginger is still old and hot. Fortunately, I deliberately covered it up before, so I didn't show my true face, but I didn't expect to be spotted by this old shopkeeper. Well, I might have guessed it."

Thinking about it, this old shopkeeper has been in business for most of his life after all. He is also an old man who has never seen any kind of person. It is not surprising to see something.

Spreading out the cloth bag, there were a few scattered pieces of silver and copper plates inside, and Li Yu suddenly smiled.

He weighed it roughly and found that these could cost around two taels of silver, which was quite a lot of money.

The world uses precious metals such as gold, silver and copper as currency.

One tael of gold is equal to ten taels of silver, and one tael of silver is equal to one thousand Wen, that is, one hang.

In addition, the purchasing power of this penny is stronger than the one penny in Li Yu's previous life. It can buy a big meat bun full of ingredients, or a bunch of candied haws, or two thick pancakes.

With this money, it is enough for Li Yu to survive this winter in peace.
