In the Blade

Du Chengfeng came to another world.

It happened more than two months ago. It was a dark and windy night. Du Chengfeng, who was sleeping in a daze, suddenly felt a little cold. He closed his eyes and opened them again. He found that he was not only not covered with a quilt, but also had no clothes on his body.

After two hours of observing the surrounding environment, he finally confirmed that he was not dreaming in the bedroom. It took him another seven hours to finally confirm that he should not have entered some prank show, but really came to another world.

Du Chengfeng didn't know how to describe this strange world specifically. People's clothes and appearance were a bit similar to those in ancient times, but to say which dynasty it was like was a bit too much of a test of his knowledge reserve.

And unlike the ancient world he remembered, the environment here was unexpectedly barbaric.

Du Chengfeng spent the first three days of coming to this world in the woods. On the fourth day, when he just met the first stranger, he thought that he could at least ask for a set of clothes from the other party and make a good relationship with him just by looking at the other party's simple clothes and honest face. After he had a place to stay and was familiar with the environment, he could repay the other party, which would be a good story.

As for whether he could repay, Du Chengfeng was still very confident. After all, he had read a lot of books and could still find some ways to make money. Even if his knowledge might not be able to be realized in the current environment, he could at least be considered strong and have some strength. When the time comes, he can still have a set of clothes.

Although working for others may be hard, as the old saying goes, you should make the best of it. After understanding his situation, Du Chengfeng quickly accepted the reality. After all, life is something that you have to live everywhere. Being able to rely on your own abilities to support yourself and repay your benefactors is already a pretty good life in Du Chengfeng's eyes.

But who would have thought that even though Du Chengfeng had already stated his identity as a human being and had clearly stated that he would be rewarded in the future, the man who looked like a hunter still raised the stick in his hand towards him.

"In the future? There is no need for a future. Selling you and exchanging the money for wine is better than any reward?"

Hearing this man who looked like a hunter say this, Du Chengfeng realized that it was not possible to just reason with him in this situation.

If it didn't work, then he could only fight.

The long stick smashed, the fists and feet flew, and after three punches and two kicks, the man who looked like a hunter and looked like a fierce man lay down.

As compensation for mental damage after being almost robbed, the other party's clothes naturally fell into Du Chengfeng's hands. After finally having clothes to wear, Du Chengfeng finally realized why he could win with his bare hands.

The reason was that this man who looked like a hunter was too thin.

When he was wearing clothes just now, the man looked a bit fierce, but after taking off his clothes, Du Chengfeng found that the hunter's limbs were even thinner than his.

With this little strength, he went into the forest to hunt? I'm afraid that a dog could take him away.

Fortunately, Du Chengfeng was kind after all. After thinking about it, he only took away the man's pants and straw sandals, as well as the stick that could be used for self-defense. As for the clothes on his upper body and the broken bow that might be broken if pulled, he left them to the hunter for self-defense.

After all, this man who looked like a hunter at least brought him important information.

That is, there are people living nearby.

As long as he follows the trail of the man, he will most likely find a settlement such as a village. This is undoubtedly the best news for Du Chengfeng, who has been eating mushrooms in the forest for three days. As for what to do after that, Du Chengfeng didn't think too much. After all, compared with the hunter, he could be considered a strong laborer at the moment. It was definitely a bit far away to become rich and powerful, but if he wanted to earn a living, he should be able to do it as long as he worked harder.

What's more, he could do more than just sell his physical strength. He had read some books after all. When he thought of the stories in those popular novels where the protagonists returned to ancient times and became successful by relying on information gaps, Du Chengfeng couldn't help but have more confidence in his heart.

And the fact was indeed as he thought. After he spent two days to find a nearby village, the village called Yangjiabao quickly accepted him. Although he only started as a short-term worker and worked hard for those farmers, fortunately Du Chengfeng was strong, learned quickly, and was willing to do some work that everyone thought was tiring. So in just one month, Yangjiabao, which was not very big, knew that there was a strong laborer in the village who was diligent and efficient.

Of course, Du Chengfeng had encountered some difficulties in this process. The first bird to stick out gets shot, and someone will definitely cause trouble for him. Fortunately, the folk customs in the countryside are too simple, and everyone solves problems in a simple and direct way.

That is fists. If they are not happy with you, they will beat you up until you dare not show your head again.

When he was blocked by those young men at the entrance of the village, Du Chengfeng was still a little confused, but after looking at the thin arms and legs of the other party, and then looking at his arms that were even stronger than before because of a month of work, Du Chengfeng sighed.

It was still the familiar three punches and two kicks, and the few ruffians who were causing trouble for him were already lying on the ground.

They all lived in the same village, so Du Chengfeng didn't want to be too extreme. Moreover, he wanted to know why these people had to make trouble for him. After he entered the village, he had always been kind, humble, and courteous, and worked hard. He had never offended anyone. How could anyone find trouble with him? It made no sense.

"How come I didn't offend anyone! I hit you! Since you came, we have no food to eat! Is this your fault?"

After two slaps, Du Chengfeng heard the leader crying and talking. Only then did he realize that these people were not unreasonable to make trouble for him.

It turned out that before he came, these rogues were the laborers in the village. If a family had some physical work and needed young men to help, they would call them to help, give them some money, or provide them with a meal. After these young men got together, they began to unify the price and in turn raised the price with the farmers. Although the farmers were unwilling, in this place where there was a shortage of cattle and horses, there would always be times when young and strong people were needed to work, so there was nothing they could do.

After Du Chengfeng came, he was happy with some food and was willing to work hard. Naturally, everyone would rather find this stronger person, which naturally ruined the good business of these young and strong people.

"Ah, this..."

After hearing the whole story, Du Chengfeng was speechless.

It turned out that he was maliciously competing, no wonder these people would trouble him.

But he didn't plan to change it. After all, for him at the moment, survival was the first priority. Only by gaining a foothold in Yangjiabao first, he could have the spare energy to plan what he could do next.

As for his future, Du Chengfeng didn't think too much. Even if he had a lot of knowledge beyond this environment, he felt that an ordinary person like him should not be able to achieve anything like a meteoric rise. In his opinion, it was good enough to have a stable income and live and work in peace and contentment.

Of course, since he was beaten up, he still had to pay for mental damage. So after a search, Du Chengfeng had more than a dozen copper coins in his pocket.

Counting the money Du Chengfeng had saved before, it added up to about a hundred dollars. Although this was not much, it was much closer to Du Chengfeng's goal. After this period of helping, he had become very familiar with Carpenter Li in the village. The other party had agreed with him that as long as he was willing to pay 500 yuan, the kind-hearted Carpenter Li would be willing to pay a few purlins to help him build a house near the entrance of the village.

Having a place to live was the first step to live and work in peace and contentment, and Du Chengfeng would naturally not refuse this kindness. Five hundred yuan could give him a small courtyard, which was naturally a great favor from Carpenter Li. Du Chengfeng was penniless at the moment, but when he started to work and had income, he would naturally not forget this kindness.

Now, two months after coming to Yangjiabao, through his own efforts, and after several high-end yet simple business wars, Du Chengfeng, who finally had 500 yuan in his hand, found Carpenter Li and quickly made a prototype of the courtyard.

This is his first residence in this world, and it is also the first time in his two lives that he has a place to live that truly belongs to him. Even though 500 yuan is not enough to build a good house, he believes that with his own efforts and persistence, as well as continuous renovation and transformation, this place that belongs to him will eventually get better and better.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. At this time, Du Chengfeng still had infinite longing for a better life in his heart.

But just when he knocked on Carpenter Li's door and was about to discuss how to build a thatched house, he suddenly heard a desolate horn sound.

Then, the kind-hearted Carpenter Li pushed the door out in a hurry.

This was the first time Du Chengfeng saw Carpenter Li lose his composure like this.

"What are you still doing here? Hurry up and go to the fort!"

Carpenter Li pulled Du Chengfeng's arm with amazing force.

"Someone in the fort is blowing a horn! The bell will ring soon! Those horsemen are coming! If you stand there any longer, you will die!"

"...Ah?"

The large amount of information contained in the short words made Du Chengfeng lose his mind. At this moment, the first thing he thought of was his small courtyard that had not been built yet.

All he wanted was to live and work in peace and contentment, and live an ordinary life. Is that difficult?
