Steve's Ark of Tomorrow
Page 42
"I said that people who like to farm don't have a bad personality. You see, this is really the case, isn't it?"
Compared with the girl who was a little astonished, the old man beside her was more likely to accept this fact. He was born on this poor but pristine land. What a bad idea.
People who really have that kind of bad idea are absolutely unable to take care of the potatoes that grow so well.
If the old man thinks this way, it's because Muyou doesn't know what he's thinking, otherwise it would be a bit ironic for him, a lazy guy who cultivates a piece of land and puts what he wants to plant directly on.
Standing up straight, the old man smiled and rubbed his hands. He had already smelled the smell of meat from the house behind him when he came to Muyou's house. He was familiar with this smell. When the old lady celebrated her birthday, the Orion in the village once brought her half a bowl of broth with this fragrance.
Although he never took a sip, the taste still remains in his mind.
Rather, the smell behind Muyou seems to be more fragrant.
"Don't get me wrong, I just thought it would not be easy for you to come here to apologize in such weather, and it's good to be able to recognize your mistakes and use them to take responsibility, but the premise is that this kind of mistake is not necessary. I repeat, the thing I hate the most is that someone uses my things without my consent."
Seeing the doubt and distrust in the eyes of the girl in front of him, Mu You shrugged his shoulders, and after briefly explaining to her, he turned around and weighed out two pieces of water from the cauldron in the room behind him with a pottery bowl. A bowl of unfinished chicken soup.
"Drink something warm to warm your body. From now on, I will be neighbors. I am new here. I may have some things to ask you."
Putting the chicken soup in his hand in front of these two people, Mu You didn't mean to force them to drink it, whether he wanted to drink it or not, anyway, he had already shown the politeness he should show as a master.
"Listen to my brother, you just moved here? This remote place is not a good place to settle down."
Compared to the girl with antlers who didn't know how to answer, the old man was obviously much more cheerful. After seeing the mushrooms he gave him during the day from the soup served by Mu You, he had already concluded that Mu You It will not be someone who has any crooked thoughts about himself.
If he really thought so, he wouldn't be able to eat all these mushrooms himself. The more crooked people are about others, the harder it is for them to trust them.
After taking the bowl of chicken soup that was still warm, the old man with bear ears brought it up to the tip of his nose and took a deep breath of the fragrance. Then he started talking with Muyou as if he was chatting with neighbors. .
"Well, I'm a traveler. I'm used to wandering around. I just came here during this period of time. I'm not familiar with the place, so I can only build a simple house and make do with it."
Mu You nodded, but saw that the old man just took a sip of the oil on the bowl of chicken soup, then took out a kettle from his pocket with a satisfied expression, and put the water in it The water was poured out, and then the chicken soup in the bowl in his hand was poured in.
"This is you?"
"Oh, I'll bring it to the old lady at home. She is weak, and it's good to eat more meat in such a cold weather."
Responding to Muyou's simple and honest smile, the old man has the unique simplicity of the people at the bottom, but it doesn't make people feel that there is anything bad about it, and it can be seen that he should have a happy family look.
"It's pretty good. So, it's getting late, how about I take you back?"
Mu You didn't say anything else, anyway, he had already sent them all the things, and what they wanted to do with them was their own business. All he wanted to do now was to find out where the village they lived in was.
If there is a village, at least you can exchange some local specialties, right?And if there are local people, it will be much easier for herdsmen to find nearby mines.
"This is a bit too much trouble for you, sir?"
Somewhat helplessly, he glanced at the old man beside him who obviously regarded Muyou as a fairly talkative neighbor, and the girl was obviously not as relaxed as he was.
Mu You's performance seems to be quite friendly, but it's hard to believe that he really has no other intentions.
It's not that girls like to judge people by their appearance, but this can only be blamed on Mu You's being too fancy, isn't it?
"It's not troublesome. After all, they are already considered neighbors. There will always be some walking between each other. Knowing where the village is, it will be convenient for me to exchange some things I need, right?"
Mu You naturally saw what this girl was worried about, but he didn't care about it. Instead, he casually expressed his true thoughts. As for whether she believed it or not, that was her business.
"Really, I'm actually quite curious about the variety of this potato in your family. If possible, can you exchange some seeds of this variety of potato?"
Hearing Muyou mention this, the old man on the side couldn't sit still, he himself had made up his mind to do that kind of thing during the day, now that he heard Muyou mentioning this, it was hard for him to stop I can sit still.
"Not very good, this thing is something that requires some special skills of mine to grow, but if you are really interested in it, grandpa, I don't mind using baked potatoes as a cheap food exchange. "
Mu You shook his head with a smile. These two people are very polite, but these potatoes are not something he can give away casually. Even if it is given to the Iberian Tribunal, it is just to get a country organization as the background.
But if it is baked potatoes, it is not a very important thing. If it is only used as food in exchange, Muyou is not afraid of someone stealing his core technology.
After all, you can’t grow cooked potatoes, can you?
"Is that so?"
The old man, who was very excited just now, suddenly became depressed, but he can also understand, after all, this thing should indeed be a very rare species, after all, it can grow so luxuriantly under the extremely cold weather of the world of ice and snow. Obviously, just like what Mu You said, some special means are needed.
And this involves other people's secrets, so it's hard for him to say anything more.
"If that's the case, we won't bother."
He sighed in disappointment. It could be seen that the old man was obviously reluctant to part with Muyou's potatoes, but in the end he could only say goodbye to him regretfully.
The basket of mushrooms was exchanged for a bowl of chicken soup. Even the old man couldn't figure out whether it was a good thing or not, but it was inevitable that his old lady would talk about it tonight.
"Well, I'll give you a ride, and take a look at the way to the village by the way."
Mu You got up and closed the door of his house, and then naturally followed behind them.
As for the girl with antlers who hadn't spoken much, she could only sigh, and imitated the action of the old man at the side. After filling the bowl of chicken soup in front of her with a jug, she helped him to go back. village road.
As for the matter of rejecting the idea of Mu You traveling with her, at most she just thought about it. If he settled in this kind of place, even if they refused, it would not be difficult for Mu You to find a nearby village.
Instead of refusing him to fight against him, it's better to take him to the village honestly.
And if I really want to say it, the girl didn't feel any malice from Mu You's body. Although he was dressed a little strangely, from the beginning, he seemed to be very talkative.
Maybe it's true as the old man said, people who like to farm, most of them have no bad guys.
After thinking about this point, the sadness on the girl's face was reduced a lot. She is a person who likes to laugh, and after thinking about one thing, the conversation with Muyou naturally increased.
"Speaking of which, I still don't know your name, sir, and I don't know how to address you."
Supporting the old man and looking at the back of the shepherd who had already taken the initiative to cover them from some wind and sand because of the approaching night, the girl smiled and asked him.
"Just call me Steve."
Mu You responded lightly, compared to the name, he cared more about the speed of the two people's movements really slow enough, and when they walked slowly ahead, when would they be able to reach the destination?
If it wasn't for politeness, Muyou would have liked them to point out the exact location of the village, and then he would just put the two of them in the boat and drag them all the way there.
Simple and convenient.
"Is that so? Nice to meet you, my name is Alina."
The smile on the face of the girl supporting the old man grew stronger, and she tenderly reported her name.
The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Mu You who was walking in front. From the very beginning, he was a little puzzled. Is this neighbor's head too bright?
How does it feel brighter than the headlamp he wore when he worked in the mine?
And isn't his head a bit, like a pumpkin?

Chapter 91 He's a good guy (3k6)
Ursas is very cold at night, and it goes without saying on this snow-covered snowfield.
That is to say, with the protection of leather armor, Muyou can't feel the severe cold from Ursus, but judging from the two people behind him who are constantly clinging to their thick winter clothes, this is definitely not what it is. Comfortable environment.
Muyou himself did not expect that in such a harsh environment, there is actually a small village full of people. Not only that, but also a place that can be seen after turning over a hill behind his home .
If I had changed the direction during the day, would I have found it long ago?
Scratching his head in embarrassment, Mu You didn't know how to describe the current situation.
In short, he is still the same non-chief as before.
"Is this the village where you live?"
Seeing that you can already see the light yellow lights rising from the village not far away, Muyou finally doesn't have to worry about some wild animals like hungry wolves and brown bears coming out from the side to attack the two obvious ones behind him. The weak fellow, pointed to the village in front of him and asked.
"Well, if you go a few tens of kilometers further, you can almost see the mobile city that often stays, but there are few people along the way, and there are wild beasts, if you don't follow the caravan It's still dangerous to go together."
Along the way, Alina, who saw that Muyou seemed to be just a traveler who wanted to understand the local customs, answered his question and pointed out the direction to the nearest mobile city along the way.
She had a premonition that a person like Muyou would definitely not be able to stay in that cabin in a peaceful manner.
Therefore, it should be necessary to simply remind him, although Alina feels that for a guy like Shepherd who can easily build a residence in such a remote place, those beasts should be of great importance to him. It won't have much impact.
This can be seen from the frivolous performance of not paying attention to the dangers that may occur around him during the pastoral tour.
He is not afraid of those things from the bottom of his heart.
"Well, thank you for your reminder. I don't think I have the idea of going to the mobile city for the time being. I may need to stay here for a while."
Muyou scratched his head. Alina's enthusiasm really made him somewhat at a loss as to how to respond. This girl who always kept a gentle smile was so understanding every time she spoke.
So much so that sometimes Muyou wanted to say some flirty words as a joke, but he didn't know how to say it.
"Brother, don't you want to go to the village? My old lady's baking skills are still very good. It must be delicious with the chicken soup you sent. And if you go back so late, it will be difficult if you encounter wolves on the way." .”
Since Mu You kindly gave him chicken soup, the old man was not a stingy person, so he naturally pointed to a dilapidated log cabin with lights on at the head of the village, and extended an invitation to him.
However, Muyou just came here to see how to get there, and it would be too embarrassing to go to someone else's house to be a guest at night, and Muyou didn't intend to make trouble for others.
"No need, it's not very far from here, and I'm a strong man anyway, and I have a side job of hunting, so you don't have to pay too much attention to me, old man, I'll come over tomorrow morning Let's see what can be exchanged in the village."
Muyou waved his hand, as long as he knew the location of the village, his goal would be achieved. As for sitting and so on, he really couldn't keep his face from disturbing people's dreams.
If this was a village in MC, Muyou would have already rung the golden bell like buying vegetables, and then selected high-quality villagers for exchange one by one.
After saying goodbye to Alina and the old man, Mu You turned around and walked back towards his cabin.
The village is not small, and it seems that there are hundreds of families, but if he really wants to live on a nomad, he feels that it is not as good as his own matchbox.
After all, with the dilapidated appearance of those houses and the simple clothes of the old man and Alina, it is not a village rich in products at first glance. The conditions are not even comparable to the dormitory in Rhodes Island, let alone his own Nether Rock. The log cabin is heated.
"It's a good neighbor, but it's good not to be so stingy in some places. Share the skills of farming, and you won't lose a piece of meat."
Seeing Muyou's leaving figure, the old man murmured in a low voice. Judging from the fact that Muyou was willing to escort them back, the old man was even more convinced that Muyou was not a bad person. The only thing he couldn't forget was Muyou. Those potatoes grown in front of Youjia.
Seeing Muyou's leaving figure, Alina glanced helplessly at the old man beside her. She could only say that it was a good thing that her old man's eyesight was not very good. If he really saw Muyou After actually dressing up like this, I don't know if he can still do such a thing as inviting him into the village.
You know, Muyou's current state is somewhat similar to the various monsters that have been circulated among the folks in Ursus.
"I will tell grandma about everything you did today, old man. You just wait to be educated today."
After deliberating for a long time, Alina really didn't know how to reprimand this childish old man. Anyway, Mu You is indeed a good person, so talking about the old man is indeed a bit unreasonable.
It's just that the trouble he caused today can't be hidden from his family for him.
"Tell her and tell her, can I still be afraid of her? Isn't it just a basket of mushrooms? Didn't I prepare a bottle of chicken soup for her?"
Although the old man's words were tough, judging from his shrinking neck, he didn't look like he was completely unafraid of his old lady as he said.
"Yes, old man, you should avoid running into the forest over there. Thanks to Mr. Steve, he is a good man. Otherwise, if we are in danger, we will worry."
Smiling and looking at this old man who was still addicted to mouth, Alina had a bit of helplessness in her eyes, but she still reminded him very solemnly.
There was something wrong with the direction that Muyou was in. According to what the hunters in the village said, the beasts over there had fled for some reason, so that they seldom went that way.
His old man doesn't look as strong as Muyou at all. If he is really in danger, it will be difficult to escape.
The old man wanted to say something more, but he chose to shut up after seeing the two figures who hurried out from the village to greet them.
Having said that, it is an indisputable fact that the harvest is getting worse and worse. If he didn't want to pick some wild mushrooms to see if he could exchange for some food, who would go to that kind of place?
Coupled with the oppression of the local search teams who come here and there to plunder under the name of searching for the names of infected people, this day is even more difficult.
Of course, they knew all these words well, so there was no point in saying them.
"Grandpa, you are finally back. My mother-in-law is almost deaf from my ears."
One of the two people walking towards each other, a girl, left the other old man first, and after helping Alina to support the old man very warmly and understandingly, she complained to him in a low voice.
"You girl just wait for him to come back so you can file a complaint, right? Let me tell you, he is the one who committed the crime today. Let alone keep you, I will even teach him a lesson today."
The old woman who came late gave the girl a blank look, and then passed a thick animal skin coat to the old man with an old face.
"You guys know how to cause trouble to others, and you have to let Alina pull you to apologize to others. Now it's over, the mushrooms are gone, and the things are returned. Why do you say you are so cheap? , didn’t you say it yourself, don’t take other people’s things?”
The words were full of complaints, but the old woman just took the initiative to hold the old man's dry and cold hand, and walked him into the house where the stove was still burning.
"It's my fault, but old lady, the young man who lives there is actually quite nice. He even gave me some nice things. I'll give you a taste when I go back."
He smiled honestly, the old man who faced the responsibilities of his own old woman was not as arrogant as he told Alina before, but just admitted his mistake to her in a low voice, and then showed her that he was pregnant with a smile. in the kettle.
And Alina walked side by side with the girl who came out to greet her, and looked at the two old people who were leaning on each other with a warm smile in front of them.
"You should wait for me to come back before calling me to go with you. What if you are in danger?"
The white-haired girl with strange curved horns on her head turned her face and glanced at Alina beside her, and then the user spoke to her with a somewhat complaining tone.
"I think there will be more kind people in this land, and that gentleman is indeed as I thought. The old man and I were sent back with his help."
Holding the kettle with the temperature still remaining in her arms, the smile on Alina's face ticked up again when she thought of Mu You's strange but friendly man with a strange head on his head.
