Chapter 16 Tower Hearth

Luo Ya gradually quickened her pace, and the people behind her also quickened their pace, until they were almost jogging.

"The girl runs pretty fast." The three men almost couldn't catch up with Luo Ya.

Finally, Luo Ya seemed unable to run anymore and sat down beside a remote ditch, looking at the three people with panic on her face.

"Why are you following me?" The voice was full of panic.

"What? Of course I'm going to fuck you. It's a waste for a little girl like you to eat so well. You might as well feed your brothers well." One of the fat men with a lewd smile on his face looked at Luo Ya, and his body couldn't help but react.

Luo Ya looked at the three men who surrounded her, and her eyes changed immediately. She was no longer afraid. “How many people have you harmed?” It was rare to see someone so fat in this era.

"Why do you have so much to say, little girl?" The three men ignored the change in Luo Ya's expression.

Just as the three men pounced on them, Luo Ya supported herself with one hand, jumped up suddenly, and kicked the fat man hard in the vitals.

Then the man let out a terrible scream, covering his legs and wailing on the ground.

The other two men missed their attack and were panicked for a moment, but immediately surrounded Luo Ya with fierce looks on their faces.

Luo Ya did not retreat but rushed towards the two men. A baseball bat appeared in his hand as he flew over. He hit one of them on the temple with the bat, and then put the baseball bat back into space.

That man finished his answer, and the remaining person looked at Luo Ya with horror on his face, not knowing how Luo Ya had beaten his brother.

"Devil, devil..." The man was so scared that he kept backing away.

“Why doesn’t it count? I finally crawled out of hell. I haven’t provoked anyone and have lived my life in peace and stability. Why don’t you open your eyes and provoke me?” Luo Ya raised the corner of her mouth slightly, with a hint of bloodthirsty murderous intent in her eyes, and walked quickly towards the man.

“Ghost!!!!” The man was so scared that he peed his pants. He tried to run, but his legs were weak and he fell to the ground.

Luo Ya stretched out her right hand and attacked the man's temple directly with quick, fierce and accurate force, knocking him unconscious. Then she walked towards the first man who was lying on the ground wailing.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, please be magnanimous and forgive me." The man knelt on the ground and kowtowed, regardless of the pain.

Luo Ya used the same attack method to knock the man unconscious, and then took out a plastic water bottle from the space.

She pinched the man's mouth open and poured a few mouthfuls in, then pried open his eyes and carefully poured some liquid, making sure the liquid didn't touch her fingers.

The other two people did the same thing and searched their pockets again, finding a total of eight yuan and twenty cents, some three grain coupons, half a pack of cigarettes, and the most valuable thing was a gold bracelet.

All the things have been put into the space. In a society ruled by law, we cannot kill people. This is the only method we can take. We must clean up our traces and leave quickly.

After leaving a certain distance, he took out the electric scooter and rushed back to Xiaoyushugou Village as quickly as possible.

I don't know the capabilities of the local police, but it's better to be careful.

It was less than two o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to the educated youth point.

Wang Ling and Li Dongcao were sitting on the kang sewing shoe soles.

"Luo Ya, you're back." Wang Ling was a little surprised to see Luo Ya come in. She came back so soon, and it must be that she didn't buy anything.

"The things are too expensive and we can't afford them. I went to look at the pots and asked for industrial tickets. Let's get some yellow mud and build a stove top to make it smaller. Then we can put the clay pots on it." Luo Ya looked at the two of them.

"I don't know how to do this, and I don't think anyone in the village knows how to do it." Wang Ling was a little confused. "I know how to do this. There was an uncle in my family who knew how to do this. It was like a swallow building a nest, with straw layer by layer. When applying the mud, be careful not to let too much of the straw show. Just dry it slowly over a low fire. I see someone in the village knows how to make a clay pot. Let's go and get a slightly bigger one." Luo Ya asked for their opinions.

Actually, I learned it at the end of the world. There was no cement at that time, and I needed to build walls to resist the cold wind and enemies. There happened to be an expert in the base who developed this method. Actually, it can’t be said to be a research, but it should be said that our ancestors’ things were used again.

The disadvantages are that it is ugly and slow, but it is no less sturdy than bricks.

"Okay, since we have nothing to do anyway, let's do it now. Once it's done, we won't suffer in the winter." Wang Ling and Li Dongcao both agreed very much.

"Luo Ya, have you eaten? I'll cook you some potatoes." Wang Ling suddenly thought of it.

"No need. I bought some steamed bread when I came back. Let's go make some mud." Luo Ya refused with a smile.

"Okay." Wang Ling nodded.

The three of them went to the foot of the mountain to get the stream silt, which was yellow mud and quite sticky.

It was also quite heavy, so three of them carried a basin back, which just happened to hit Sun Yaowu who came out to drink water.

"What are you three doing? You look like a cat." Sun Yaowu teased them with a smile.

"We just got some mud, but we didn't expect it to be so heavy." Wang Ling wiped the sweat off her face, and in an instant her face was covered in mud.

"You should have told me earlier. I would have gone with you." Sun Yaowu said as he went to take the basins from the three people.

"What are you waiting for? Let's go." Li Dongcao said with a smile.

"What are you doing with the mud?" Sun Yaowu followed the three people to the foot of the mountain, chatting while working.

"Luo Ya said she knew how to build a stove. We don't have money to buy an iron pot, so we thought of raising the stove a little higher so that we can put clay pots on it, have some hot water in the winter, and cook sweet potatoes. I thought we could do it while we have free time." Wang Ling said to Sun Yaowu with Luo Ya's permission.

"This is a good thing. Luo Ya, when we go back, I will call Yang Dongjun as well. Can you teach us how to build one then?" Sun Yaowei's eyes lit up.

"No problem, you help us put it together first. It's easy. You will naturally learn it after doing it once." Luo Ya nodded.

This is not a technical job. Anyone can do it as long as they are careful. Moreover, with the help of Sun Yaowu and Yang Dongjun, the three of them can save some effort.

"We'll take care of the mud for a while, you guys go back and have a rest." Sun Yaowu smiled naively, revealing his big white teeth.

"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to build the stove?" Luo Ya's mood improved as she looked at Sun Yaowu's silly look. The young man's eyes showed the clarity of a young man who was not very worldly-wise.

"If it can't be built, then it can't be built. No one said it must be fixed." Sun Yaowu said indifferently.

The four men carried back two basins of mud, and Sun Yaowu went into the house to grab Yang Dongjun.

Yang Dongjun followed without saying anything. Wang Liming held his waist and said, "Yaowu, my waist is not healed yet. I'll go find some straw."

Wang Liming didn't dare to say he would do nothing, for fear that the two would exclude him.

"Then go ask Luo Ya what kind of straw to look for." Sun Yaowu responded casually.

"Luo Ya, what kind of grass do you want? Let's go find it together." Wang Liming went out and said directly to Luo Ya.
