I became an old man in my leisure time

Chapter 043 The Day When Snow Falls

The next day, Gu Ke felt an itch on the tip of his nose and subconsciously raised his hand to slap it.

Xiaoman shrunk her hand to avoid it and laughed in his ear: "Old Gu, don't be lazy, get up quickly."

Gu Ke opened his eyes helplessly and looked at the little girl squatting beside the mattress. He suddenly used the black palm to grab her wrist and pulled her hard.

He sat up with the help of the force, but Xiaoman fell towards him, and then his two fists hit both temples and drilled them.

Xiaoman's laughter immediately became louder.

She was not really ticklish. She could endure and continue hunting even when being pricked by the thorns of some plants.

But when she laughed and joked with Gu Ke, she would laugh involuntarily, and she would laugh even more when he drilled her forehead.

After educating the little girl, Gu Ke let her go and officially got up to sign in for the dragon.

Xiaoman lay on the ground and twitched, occasionally making a short "haha burp" sound, and got up after a while.

Looking at Gu Ke, her eyes brightened and she said: "Wow, Gu Ke, you suddenly became much whiter."

Gu Ke touched his face: "What's the use of being white? I ask you to be white, but you are not allowed to eat, will you do it?"

Xiao Man shook his head decisively: "Only a fool would do that."

"That's good to know." Gu Ke said, but he was still quite satisfied in his heart.

This body was originally only a little over four feet tall, weighing more than fifty kilograms, very thin, and the skin was rough and dark, obviously caused by lack of nutrition and long-term exposure to wind and sun.

In the past month or so, the physique has skyrocketed, and in recent days, he has also eaten purple wheat, which is very nourishing. The body is recovering visibly.

At this moment, the height is four feet and five inches (about 1.5 meters), and the weight has increased to more than 70 kilograms. The skin is slightly dark but no longer rough.

And the original appearance of this body is quite good, which was not obvious when it was thin and haggard.

Now that the physique has improved, the food is sufficient, and there is meat on the face, it actually feels a bit like the factory flower in the previous life.

Today, the top is changed to a clean jacket, and Xiao Man suddenly feels like a different person.

When Bai Suqing came over, she looked him up and down in surprise for a moment, then nodded and said: "Now that we have clothes to change, it would be best if we do this in the future."

Gu Ke nodded with a smile: "Well, I have given my dirty clothes to Xiaoman."

Bai Suqing squinted: "You really make the best use of everything."

Gu Ke was helpless: "It's not that I don't want to wash clothes, I'm just afraid that the clothes will be torn after I wash them a few times."

Bai Suqing: "Can't you save some energy?"

Gu Ke: "I always feel that I haven't washed them clean, so I will wash them again with force."

Bai Suqing thought he was joking, but suddenly remembered that when he washed the dishes, he only washed them once, but immediately washed them a second and third time, and checked them repeatedly.

Well, okay, this may not be a joke. She admitted this possibility in her heart and ignored it calmly.

Before the snow, everyone was nervous, but after the snow stopped, everyone calmed down. Anyway, it's okay to snow, it's not like there's no food to eat or firewood to burn.

Plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum ran back and forth. They had to chop wood and teach martial arts here, and take care of Miss Qin and six maids there. They did the most work, but they were the happiest.

The ancestral mausoleum hall was originally very closed, cold and damp. After the snow fell, it was even colder. They had to move to a shorter hall near the front door.

This can save firewood and make the indoor temperature higher.

Otherwise, with the indoor height of more than five meters in the main hall, one or two braziers would not work at all.

The system sheltered the small hut, and the temperature was only cool, not cold.

The wind and rain could enter, but not violently.

The snow was directly blocked outside, and it did not affect daily life or farming at all.

When Miss Qin and the others saw such a strange sight for the first time, they were shocked and controlled their expressions for a long time.

People are more likely to feel awe for unknown and difficult to understand phenomena, such as primitive people for wind, fire, thunder and lightning.

The more magical the small hut and the fairy field, the higher the status of Gu Ke, the "originator", in the eyes of the women.

The east side of the stone platform faces the mountain and is very open. It is undoubtedly comfortable compared to the dark stone house in the ancestral mausoleum.

With these advantages, it is not worth mentioning to spend some energy and physical strength teaching martial arts and chopping wood every day.

Besides, Gu Ke's martial arts training time is decreasing day by day. After writing down a section of the martial arts "secret book" narrated by Mei Lan every day, he will pull them to drink tea and chat.

Compared with Bai Suqing, who came from a large sect in the East Sea Kingdom, Mei and Zhu know more systematically and comprehensively.

Gu Ke asked about this, of course, not for his own martial arts training, but to think about safety issues.

There is a system shelter within the scope of the small hut, which should be very safe, but he does not want to be confined to the vicinity of the small hut.

The Yulong Valley is an irregular elliptical ring, with a maximum length of fifty miles from east to west and a maximum width of about thirty miles from north to south.

Yulong Peak is located slightly east of the center of the valley. It is an isolated peak, twenty miles away from the stone gate at the east entrance, and more than ten miles away from the north and south rock walls.

It is more than 300 feet high and occupies an area of ​​two or three miles, but it is less than one percent of the total area of ​​the valley.

Moreover, the peak is rocky and the land and plants are scarce, so there are not many places for people to develop.

Most of the other places in the valley are flat land, and a small part are small hills, which may have the plants that Gu Ke needs.

Now the purple wheat in the warehouse is enough to eat for many years, and he can keep some of the fairy fields for planting other things.

Such as wood for building houses and furniture, cotton and linen for making cloth, edible fruits and vegetables, onions, ginger, garlic, peppers, etc. for seasoning, he wants all of them.

Of course, in this cold northwest, most of them should not exist in the wild, and the chance of them happening to be in the valley is even smaller.

But even if he only finds one, he will not lose anything, because there is nothing here.

If you want to explore the entire Yulong Valley, you have to be on guard against strange creatures.

Strange creatures just don't like to appear during the day, but they can appear during the day.

However, there are no other living creatures here, so there should be no demons.

If the few people sent by Yulong Valley once every ten years are relied on, the demons will probably starve to death.

After listening to the stories of Meizhu and the other two girls, he probably had a rough idea in his mind.

The first strange creature that appeared in the Zuling Hall was Yougui, and the second was Baigui.

At least you need to be at the third level of strength to easily kill Yougui and fight against Baigui.

Although Bai Suqing and Miss Qin are at the third level, their bodies are not good.

Fortunately, purple wheat has the effect of healing, and Bai Suqing's injuries will be 70% to 80% healed within a month or two.

It is not convenient to inquire about Miss Qin's situation, but her talent seems to be higher than Bai Suqing's. She can kill monsters as easily as killing chickens at the third level.

When Bai Suqing's injuries are almost recovered, he will ask Miss Qin and decide the time to explore Yulong Valley.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was the seventh day of November, and the third batch of purple wheat was ripe.

On the day of harvest, Miss Qin came specially to witness the second big harvest of purple wheat with her own eyes.

(Note: I forgot to explain that the measurement of the book's measurement, mu fenli, and jinliang all adopt modern rules.

It is mainly to make the book less awkward and to make it easier for everyone to understand the conversion, so that they don't have to worry about why the other world is the same as our ancient times.)
