Doomsday: Gain experience by hunting
#19 - Mother and daughter are safe
Since she came to the camp with her parents, Tang Tang had never stepped out of the camp gate.
Of course, she didn't plan to go out at this time either. Outside the camp was a vast expanse of white, and she had no idea where to find anyone.
She knew that her younger brother was very powerful now and would definitely be able to come back…
She would just wait at the door.
Suddenly, a familiar figure came into view.
"Xiao Wen!"
Tang Tang jumped up, raised her hand, and waved, and then she saw the person on the opposite side raise his hand in response.
After confirming again and again that she had not mistaken him.
She rushed out the door at once.
"Why did you come out? Just stay at the door."
"Hehe… give me the burden."
Tang Wen carried a live sheep in his bamboo basket, and another sheep was wrapped in the white cloth in his hand.
"It's very heavy, I'll do it. You go to our old cabin and see if anyone has moved in."
"Okay, good!"
Without asking why, Tang Tang turned around and ran back to the camp gate.
The cabin was in the corner of the wall next to the gate, empty, not to mention people, there wasn't even a rat.
A few minutes later, the siblings returned to the cabin together.
Tang Wen put down the bamboo basket and unwrapped the white cloth.
"Sheep? Why is their fur yellow?"
The young lady was pleasantly surprised and curious.
Tang Wen didn't answer, pointing outside: "There are a few more in the woods outside, Sister, you watch here, I'll run two more trips."
"Okay, okay, be careful."
The heavy snow helped Tang Wen. He had just covered a few sheep with snow, and from a distance, you couldn't see anything unusual.
One trip, two trips, three trips…
Seven sheep, it took four trips to transport them all to the cabin at the camp gate.
The sky was completely dark. Next, he had to transport the sheep home.
"Let's rest first, I'll go home and cook for you, and then move them after dinner."
Tang Wen shook his head, rested for a while, and moved a few more trips to his home.
The snow fell heavier and heavier. Not long after returning home, his footprints were completely covered by the heavy snow.
"Phew!"
Lying on the kang, Tang Wen completely relaxed. The sweat on his hair had frozen into ice stubble, and as the heat in the house warmed it, it turned into water and dripped down.
"Wash up quickly!"
Tang Tang brought a basin of hot water and handed him a towel.
Seeing that her younger brother didn't move, she urged him repeatedly: "Wash up quickly! You must not get sick!"
Hearing this, Tang Wen was stunned, and quickly climbed up from the kang.
That's right, this world lacks medicine, and if you get sick, there are no downstairs clinics and hospitals to go to, you can only endure it.
If you can endure it, you can endure it. If you can't endure it, the people in the camp will say: This is fate.
"Sister, I'll go cook, you wash up later too."
"Okay, good."
The night was pitch black.
Tang Wen simply peeled off the sheepskin, divided the mutton, and took it to the yard to freeze.
After a busy time, until late at night, the two ate a pot of fragrant mutton stew with potatoes.
After the meal, Tang Tang contentedly touched her stomach, not wanting to move.
Tang Wen also touched his stomach, um, he has abdominal muscles.
Outside the house, the north wind howled and the snow flew.
In this kind of weather, what could be more comfortable than eating mutton and sleeping on a warm kang?
Tang Tang looked at her younger brother, feeling that life was unrealistically good.
Originally, she had made the worst plan, which was to sell herself to exchange some food for her younger brother so that he could survive this winter.
Of course, it was more likely that no one would buy her at all, and then the siblings would freeze to death together this winter.
"Younger brother."
"Hmm?"
Tang Tang showed a smile: "Go to sleep soon."
Tang Wen: … I was already asleep if you didn't call me.
When he woke up, it was still gloomy outside the window.
As soon as he opened the door, the north wind was like a knife,夹着雪花扑面而来。*Translator's note: This phrase means 'mixed with snowflakes, blowing in the face'.
Tang Wen shivered. The snow in the yard was a foot thick!
In this kind of weather, there was no way to go out hunting.
He was secretly glad: Fortunately, he went out yesterday.
Since he couldn't go out, he would practice his Kung Fu:
【Eight Section Brocade, Mastery (399→407/3000)】
【Eight Section Brocade, Mastery (399→415/3000)】
【Eight Section Brocade】
The heavy snow continued for three days. Besides braving the snow to remove the snow from the roof and sweeping the snow in the yard.
He practiced Kung Fu from morning to night.
Morning, afternoon, and evening, practice the Eight Section Brocade.
In the afternoon, while teaching Tang Tang the Gale Saber Technique, he practiced himself.
Three days passed, 【Eight Section Brocade, Mastery (1075/3000)】
【Gale Saber, Mastery (331/1000)】
Without worrying about food, practicing hard for more than ten hours a day had a gratifying effect.
When the weather cleared and the snow began to melt.
唐文只了铁匠李大牛家一趟,带了些羊肉和两只羊蹄,换回来三百斤土豆和地瓜。*Translator's Note: This sentence is difficult to translate directly, but it means 'Tang Wen only went to the blacksmith Li Daniu's house once, bringing some mutton and two trotters, and exchanged them for three hundred catties of potatoes and sweet potatoes.'
"Brother Li, how much stuff do you have hidden in your cellar? Why does it feel like you can never finish eating it?"
Li Daniu smiled: "Brother, I make weapons for the guards and farm tools for the farmers. How could they let me lack food?"
"That makes sense."
This blacksmith of his was definitely a big shot in the camp.
"But I don't earn much either. The guards send iron ingots, and I'm responsible for forging them, just earning a hard-earned money."
After chatting about some daily life, Tang Wen asked: "I saw that my sister-in-law and the others are wearing cotton-padded clothes. Where are they sold?"
Li Daniu touched his bald head: "These were brought out from the city. If you want them, brother, two sets of thick cotton-padded clothes, plus two pairs of cotton shoes, I'm afraid it will cost 20 catties of meat."
"Are sheepskins valuable?"
"That's right! You brought mutton, so you must have sheepskins. One sheepskin is enough. However, if you have copper coins to pay the city entrance fee, you can go to the city to sell them yourself. Hehe, brother, your skills are getting better and better, you will enter the city sooner or later. That's right, I'll get you a few copper coins first…"
Before Tang Wen could speak, Li Daniu ran into the backyard in a puff of smoke, brought 10 copper coins, and stuffed them into Tang Wen's hands.
The snow melted, and under the continuous north wind, it froze again.
Tang Wen was not in a hurry to go to the city. The siblings practiced Kung Fu and saber techniques in the house every day.
【Eight Section Brocade, Mastery (2392/3000)】
【Gale Saber, Mastery (753/1000)】
Practicing hard consumed a lot of energy. Tang Wen had to eat three to five catties of mutton every day, plus potatoes, sweet potatoes, and millet.
Although Tang Tang said: "My younger brother has turned into a little pig, eating fifty catties of millet a day. Even the big shots in the city wouldn't dare to eat like this."
But when cooking, she made mutton soup, stewed mutton, and roasted mutton every day, changing the patterns.
The first sheep was eaten, and in the firewood room, another restless sheep was slaughtered.
This time, the sheep's blood was not wasted. The sheep's blood was poured into a wooden bucket, and with salt and water, it quickly became solidified sheep's blood.
The siblings' food became a little richer.
Continuous practice inevitably caused dizziness.
Tang Wen remembered something, took a bowl of hot water to the outside, and splashed it into the sky. The hot water turned into countless ice flowers, fluttering and falling.
"Huh?" The young lady behind him widened her eyes, turned around and went back to the house, also carrying a bowl of water, and splashed it into the air…
Splashing water into ice meant the water was freshly boiled hot water.
It meant that the temperature was below minus twenty degrees.
Tang Wen climbed onto the roof, cleared the snow, and looked around with a telescope.
Every household in the camp was closed, there was not a single figure on the street, and as far as the eye could see, it was a snow-white scene.
Bang bang bang!
"Brother Tang! Brother Tang!"
Someone was banging on the door, and from the sound, he knew it was the blacksmith Li Daniu.
"Brother Li, what's the matter?" Tang Wen picked up the knife and opened the door for him.
Li Daniu was stunned when he saw him holding a knife and wearing a dagger around his waist, and said: "My sister-in-law is about to give birth, and I'm going to the city to invite a doctor and a midwife. I'm not at ease at home. Brother, please take care of my house."
"No problem! Brother Li, go and come back quickly!"
Without bothering to nag, Tang Wen's siblings went directly to the blacksmith shop.
Sister-in-law Li was groaning, and the maid was at a loss.
Tang Wen had never experienced this scene either, so he had to let his sister comfort her and go to the kitchen to boil hot water himself.
This was the knowledge he gained from watching TV shows. Giving birth always required boiling water, for some reason.
The doctor and midwife came a little later than expected.
Fortunately, it didn't cause a catastrophe, and the mother and daughter were safe.
The daughter landed on the ground with a cry, and Li Daniu breathed a sigh of relief, but the light in his eyes was slightly dim. Tang Wen comforted him: "Just let my sister-in-law work hard again. It's lively to have more children, are you still afraid that you can't afford to raise them? My sister-in-law just walked through the gate of hell. Go and see her quickly. I brought sheep bones and will drink mutton soup tonight…"
Li Daniu suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, yes! Brother is right, I was confused for a while! I'll go now."
Seeking to follow up, during the new book period, follow-up data is very important, and it will be on the trial push soon, please readers!
