The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

  Chapter 67

Zhou Jia walked among everyone and looked at the head of the thirty or so households and said, "Take this opportunity today to make it clear to everyone that there is at least three or four months' journey to escape from the famine to the capital. What difficulties will be encountered, how many robbers will be encountered, maybe some of us will be gone before we arrive in Kyoto.

  You'd better think about it now, it's not too late to look back. Also, I never said who I would take out to live a good life. Those who want to go out with me and live a good life should stop thinking about it as soon as possible. "

He Cheng was about to start scolding after hearing this, when the village chief looked at him and said coldly: "He Cheng, I remember that you and some of your brothers came to me and asked me to talk to Xiaoyu, and bring some of your brothers with you. Yes, we are going to escape from the famine, not to enjoy happiness, I think you brothers should go back as soon as possible!"

   He Cheng stood up, patted his butt, and snorted, "Let's go, what's so great." The four brothers of the He family left with the other two relatives.

The village chief looked at the remaining twenty or so households, "Mr. Zhou made it clear to everyone, we still don't know what will happen on the way, maybe we can't even get to Qingfengling, so if we want to go, let's go now. !"

The Xu brothers and a few other families all stood up, "Village Chief, Mr. Zhou, no one knows what will happen when you go out? We can't blame you, but we are cowardly, so we should go back and guard the west. Mountain Village, you have a safe journey."

  The village chief and Zhou Jia looked at them and said, "You have to cross Yunjian Peak in a while, so be careful along the way."

   "Thanks to the village chief, we will be careful." The Xu brothers and the other families also turned around and walked back.

Seeing that Liu Changmin had come all the way, he didn't even ask, thinking about the big house that Liu Changmin had just built, rolled his eyes, and said to Mrs. Liu, "Mother, there are bandits in front of me, I don't think my elder brother can be trusted, we are still with those people. Let's go back together!"

   Mrs. Liu was also afraid that her grandson would have an accident on the road, and nodded a little unhappily, "Alas! It's been so far for nothing, come back!" Brother Liu also packed up his things and left behind those people.

   Li Yu looked at these people who had left, thinking: When going out, the most afraid of the people who are with you will not be in harmony, so it's better if they leave.

  The village chief calculated in his heart that most of the people who had left this time, plus there were 17 households left behind by his own family, these people seemed to have left with peace of mind.

  The head of the village asked the heads of the remaining fourteen households, "Have you made up your mind? Have you decided not to go back?"

Chen Gui looked at Cun Chang and said with a smile: "Uncle, you also know that my brothers don't have any fields in the village, so they planted the land from landlord Xu's house. After a year, they couldn't even fill their stomachs. Yu sold the food to a few of our brothers at a low price, and we starved to death at home. The three of us decided to go with Xiaoyu and Mr. Zhou, and no one complained about life and death."

   "Uncle, if we don't leave, we will follow Xiaoyu." Chen Gui's two younger brothers, Chen Jin and Chen Yin, said.

   "We are not afraid, and we will go with Xiaoyu." Several other villagers who had bought food from Li Yu's house also stood up and said that they would go with Li Yu.

   Butcher He also stood up and said with a hearty smile: "I also decided to go with Xiaoyu and Mr. Zhou."

The village chief looked at Zhou Jia and Li Yu and said, "Mr. Zhou, Xiaoyu, my family and Chen Zhong's family plus their 13 families, a total of 17 families, have decided to go with you. Live or die!"

   Zhou Jia looked at the village chief and said, "Since everyone trusts me and Xiaoyu, we will stand together through thick and thin and share weal and woe."

  Li Yu stepped forward and said to everyone: "Mr. Zhou said that the Qingfengling in front is the site of the Black Bear Village. As long as we all work together, we can break through. Everyone must obey my orders and do not act without authorization."

Chen Yaohui, He Butcher, as well as Chen Zhong and Chen Gui, who had seen Li Yu and Ruyi's abilities last night, all responded loudly without hesitation: "Xiaoyu, don't worry, we will follow your command." Others followed suit.

   Li Yu turned to look at Zhou Jia, "Mr. Zhou, bring the two bows and arrows you have left, as well as the machete."

   "Okay." Zhou Jia nodded and went back to get the weapon.

  Li Yu looked at everyone and said, "Dear uncles, there are still two bows. If any of you go hunting in the mountains, two will come out who can draw bows and shoot arrows."

  Chen Yaohui and Chen Gui walked out. Chen Yaohui looked at Li Yu a little embarrassedly, "Xiaoyu, your father taught me and Brother Chen Gui to hunt and shoot arrows. We can also use your bow, but the accuracy is not good."

"Okay, when Mr. Zhou brings the bow and arrow over, I will teach you and Uncle Chen Gui you two to practice well." Li Yu turned to the village chief and said, "Village chief grandpa, we won't be leaving today, everyone. Take a day off and leave early tomorrow."

  The village chief nodded in agreement, "Okay, it's up to you."

Zhou Jia brought Jixiang and Ruyi, two bows and four thin-blade and thick-backed machetes with a cold light, and Li Yu pointed to these weapons and said to the others, "Which uncle has good arm strength? Come and get a machete and auspiciousness to learn a few tricks."

   Butcher He stood up and said with a smile, "Xiaoyu, I'm going to learn a few tricks from Brother Jixiang, but I'm used to killing pigs, so let's leave the machete to other brothers!"

  Chen Zhong and the other three looked at Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, let's try it."

   "Okay, auspicious, take some uncles."

   "Yes." Jixiang took He Butcher and Chen Zhong to the forest over there.

  Li Yu handed the bow and arrow to Chen Yaohui and Chen Gui, and took the two to choose a big tree. Li Yu used a dagger to carve a target on the tree and draw a ray.

  Li Yu stood on the ray and said to Chen Yaohui and Chen Gui: "Two uncles, let me shoot two arrows for you to see first."

   "Okay." Chen Yaohui and Chen Gui stood aside, watching Li Yu hit the bullseye with two arrows in a row, and applauded, "Xiaoyu, your archery skills are better than your father's."

Li Yu smiled and smiled at the two of them, "You two uncles, stand on the starting line, face the target with your left shoulder, hold a bow in your left hand, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, and your body weight is even. Landing on both feet, leaning forward slightly, resting the arrow on the arrow rest, pulls the bow away with the force of the left shoulder pushing and the right shoulder pulling, . . . "

Chen Yaohui shot an arrow according to Li Yu's method. Although it was a little off the target, it was much better than the average beginner. Chen Gui's head hit the target several times than Chen Yaohui. Li Yu watched as the two practiced. After a while, he corrected his posture and left the two of them to continue practicing.

   Li Yu returned to the camp and saw that Zhou Jia had brought people with him, and set up the tent again.

Li Yu called Li Mei's family and Li Qing, and said solemnly to several people: "Aunt, two cousins, Ah Qing, we will pass through Qingfengling tomorrow, if you encounter bandits, you have to hide quickly and remember not to. Be strong."

   Li Mei, mother and daughter, and Li Qing nodded in agreement. Li Yu handed the machete to Liu Changmin and told Liu Changmin, "Uncle, aunt and Ah Qing, I will hand them over to you."

  Liu Changmin took the machete and replied solemnly: "Xiaoyu, don't worry, even if my uncle fought his life, he would protect them."

   Li Yu took out the sleeve arrow and taught Li Qing how to use it, and then taught him how to tie the sleeve arrow with a leather strap, teaching Li Qing how to use it.

   Li Yu said to Li Qing, "Aqing, you are a man from our Li family. My aunt and two cousins ​​will be handed over to you and my uncle for protection. You can find a place by yourself to practice what my sister taught you."

  Li Qing looked at Li Yu firmly, "Sister, don't worry! I will practice hard."

  Li Mei looked at Li Qing's firm and serious look, and looked at Li Yu with relief, "Yu'er, don't worry about us, you must be careful yourself."

   "Yes! Cousin, we hid when the situation was not good. You have to rush ahead, so you must be careful." Zhao Di and Laidi urged.

  Li Yu nodded, and Li Mei pulled over the sisters and said, "Okay, you follow us out to let your cousin take a good rest and keep her spirits up."

  The village chief brought other men there to repair hoes and machetes, and everyone was preparing for the smooth passage of Qingfengling tomorrow.
