While Yang Shifeng was cooking, Eleven saw a pile of prey piled up in the corner, and ran over to take a look. There was a deer, two hares, and two pheasants.
"Yang Shifeng, did you fight this?"
"Yes, I'll keep a pheasant for us to eat at home. I'll make braised chicken for you. I'll take the rest tomorrow and exchange it for money in the town. Then I'll buy some white noodles and pork, and come back to make dumplings for you."
to town? This attracted Eleven's attention. She has been active in the village these days, but she knows that the town must be more prosperous and lively than the village. If she wants to know more about the world, she must take a look. good.
"Yang Shifeng, can you take me to town tomorrow? I want to go see it too."
When Yang Shifeng heard the words, he thought about it and nodded. He didn't take her to hunt because it was too dangerous. There was no danger in going to the town, but...
"Eleven, our village is in the mountains, far from the town, and the road is not easy to walk. The only family here with a donkey cart does not go to the town every day. We have to walk on our legs when we go to the town. , it will take about two hours to walk, can you walk down?"
Eleven was stunned. Two hours, that is, almost four hours. It takes four hours for people here to go to town
Eleven now understands the backwardness of technology here, and knows that there are no vehicles such as cars, and the best way is a horse-drawn carriage. For example, people in small mountain villages use their legs to travel, but Rao is a little mentally prepared. I was still taken aback by the four hours, and I couldn't help feeling that the people here can really walk.
However, you still have to go, how can you not go out because of the long time.
Seeing that Eleven insisted on going, Yang Shifeng nodded, "That's fine, then we have to get up before the roosters crowing tomorrow, so that we can just catch up with the market when we arrive in town."
"Okay, just call me when the time comes."
Sure enough, when it was still dark the next day, Eleven was woken up by Yang Shifeng while still asleep. The two of them took a brief shower, ate two steamed buns each, and set off for the town under the faint moonlight.
Along the way, not only the two of them, but also many villagers like them traveled together, all of whom were going to the town to go to the market.
Some villagers from the same village knew Yang Shifeng and came up to greet him. Naturally, inquiries about Eleven were indispensable in the questioning. Yang Shifeng was fooled by a haha, and then he took Eleven to go quickly, as far as possible not to meet the seven he knew in the village. Aunt and eight aunts go together.
The trail from the village to the town is indeed very difficult to walk as Yang Shifeng said. It has to go over three hills, and in some places there are cliffs. Only one person can pass it. If you are not careful, you can fall off the cliff. This can be said to be It was the hardest way to walk on Eleven, no wonder it took four hours to walk.
"Do you usually go to town like this?" Eleven asked curiously.
Yang Shifeng was always paying attention to Eleven's feet, for fear that she would not be able to walk steadily and fall. Hearing that, he replied to Eleven's words, "Everyone usually walks like this, and few people go by car, because it is too expensive to take a bus. There are five copper coins. If you bring more things, you will have to pay extra. Most people are reluctant to sit. Anyway, everyone is used to walking from childhood to adulthood. In our ten miles and eight villages, seven or eight-year-old children walk by themselves. go."
Eleven thinks that people here can really walk. Anyway, she has never traveled such a long way. After all, the last world needs speed. There are cars everywhere, so there is no need for people to walk, and the walking speed is so slow. If it all relied on walking, the zombies would have caught up long ago.
Eleven's physical strength is very good, and it's okay to walk in a short time, but he's really bad at walking for a long time. When he walks for almost two hours, the bottom of Eleven's feet can't stand for such a long time of walking, and it hurts. Come, but Eleven didn't say a word, just walked like this, anyway, just bear it.
Although Eleven's walking is the same as usual, it doesn't look like her feet hurt at all, but Yang Shifeng, who is watching her all the time, realizes that her feet are not right and knows that her feet hurt. The ground wrinkled, but he didn't have a car, and he didn't know what to do, so he was secretly anxious.
At this time, because Eleven didn't pay attention, he stumbled over a dirt pit under his feet and almost fell. Yang Shifeng was startled and quickly supported him for a while. Although Eleven didn't fall, Yang Shifeng couldn't bear it anymore. When he stopped, he quickly tied the prey he brought with a rope, hung it around his neck, left his hands free, and squatted in front of Eleven, "Eleven, I'll carry you."
Eleven moved his painful toes in his shoes, frowning and shaking his head, "No, you go, I'm fine."
Yang Shifeng refused, "Eleven, you haven't walked such a road. You definitely won't be able to persevere the first time you walk. Now if you hold on, you won't be able to walk when you get to the town, and you won't be able to leave when you come back. There is still a long way to go.”
Eleven pursed her lips and thought about it for a while in her heart. She had to admit that what Yang Shifeng said was right. If she walked away with her feet now, it would be troublesome to go back, and it would be a drag on Yang Shifeng.
Wanting to understand this, Eleven no longer refused, and bent down on Yang Shifeng's back.
Seeing Eleven's agreement, Yang Shifeng breathed a sigh of relief, holding Eleven's legs and carrying the person on his back, which is not inferior to the speed of walking alone before, but his heartbeat is about to fly out now. No one knows.
Eleven was lying on Yang Shifeng's back, and she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. She has grown so big, and she has never been carried on her back. It's not bad to be chased and run. Moreover, this is also the first time that she is not helping others, but others taking care of her. This feeling is really strange, but it is not so unacceptable.
However, Eleven knew that she was dragging Yang Shifeng down, "Yang Shifeng, I'm sorry, I'm dragging you down this time."
Yang Shifeng hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, don't be sorry, it's the first time you've walked such a long distance, you must be unable to get down, and it's my fault, I shouldn't let you go with me like this, next time we take the car, don't go. already."
This person is still blaming himself, is he stupid? Eleven is too lazy to talk about him, "Thank you anyway."
Yang Shifeng's stamina is really good. He is much faster than others to walk on the mountain road with a big living person like Eleven on his back. It takes a while to take a rest. A lot of people behind.
At this time, the market just started to get lively, there were a lot of people, and all kinds of shouts were heard. There were many children playing and slapsticking on the road. From time to time, adults were full of shouts. It was really lively.
Eleven's eyes are on the market, looking here and there, but it's almost impossible to see it. Seriously, this level of liveliness is really the first time in my life for Eleven. It is not that there is no market in the end of the world, but it is just a trading area, where different people sell their own things and exchange with others for what they need. , Everyone takes what they need, and it goes on quietly, without disturbing each other. There is no liveliness at all, and it cannot be called a market.
Now, this is a veritable market.
Yang Shifeng was very interested in seeing Eleven, and said to Eleven: "Eleven, let's go to the restaurant to sell the prey first, and then I'll take you to the market, okay?"
Eleven nodded, followed behind Yang Shifeng, went all the way to a very lively two-story restaurant, and followed behind Yang Shifeng.
After entering, Yang Shifeng said hello to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper also knew him and asked, "Brother Shifeng has hunted again? What is it this time?"
Yang Shifeng smiled and handed the things in his hand to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was very happy when he saw it, "Okay, I need a hare today, and the deer is also good. I will quickly let the kitchen make it." Xiao Er took it and handed it to the cook.
"Brother Shifeng, I will give you a total of 300 wen for these things, can you read it?"
Yang Shifeng's prey has always been sold to this family, because the price of the shopkeeper is very fair, and he didn't bargain much after hearing the words, so he took the money and left.
After getting the money, Yang Shifeng went directly to the meat stall, bought half a catty of pork belly, and then took Eleven to a place selling rice noodles, weighing three catties of white noodles and ten catties of rice.
After buying everything for dumpling making, Yang Shifeng took Eleven to go shopping.
"I'm selling candied haws... I'm selling cotton candy..." The street vendor shouted vigorously, mixed with the tempting aroma, which directly attracted Eleven's attention.
What is candied haws? What is a marshmallow? Eleven has never seen it before, but the fragrance is really tempting, and it is delicious at first glance, making people want to try it.
Yang Shifeng looked at Eleven and stared at people selling delicious food. It was very funny. He went up to buy a candied haws and a piece of cotton candy directly from the boss, turned around and handed them to Eleven, "Here, eat."
The corners of Eleven's mouth were raised, and he took it bluntly. He held up the candied haws and nibbled one. The entrance was sweet and sour, and it was delicious.
Eleven showed the expression like a cat that stole something delicious, and this is what Yang Shifeng likes to watch the most.
Yang Shifeng smiled and watched Eleven eat, and reminded aloud, "The core inside cannot be eaten, it must be spit out."
When Eleven heard the words, he spat out a few hawthorn pips in his mouth. The exposed tongue was bright red, and even the lips were accidentally dyed a little red.
Yang Shifeng couldn't help but stretched out his hand and wiped the red from Eleven's mouth with his thumb. After wiping it off, he realized how rude he was, and his face turned red all of a sudden.
Eleven just focused on eating and didn't pay attention to Yang Shifeng's actions at all. Seeing his blushing, he asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"
Yang Shifeng dodged his eyes and didn't dare to look at her, he hesitated and said, "No... nothing."
Eleven shrugged and didn't care, handed the candied haws in his hand to his mouth, "I'll give you one." Eleven knew that this was the money Yang Shifeng spent, he only bought one for her, but he didn't , at first glance, she was reluctant to buy it for herself. After getting along with her during this period of time, she had discovered that this person lived very frugally. He was never willing to give himself good, but he was stupid. It wasn't really intentional.
Therefore, Eleven thinks this person is stupid.
It seems that if she wants to enjoy the food here, she must have money, so that she doesn't have to spend the money that this guy finally got.
