Strange World Survival Manual

Seeing that Li Si was so confident, everyone nodded and felt much more at ease.

"How is your health? Can you hold on?" At this time, Li Si looked at the family of three and asked with some concern.

He was still a little worried about the health of this family of three, who had started coughing up blood before. If the family's body can no longer hold on, they will have no choice but to bite the bullet tonight.

Seeing Li Si asking this question, Shu Rong smiled and said to Li Si: "My benefactor, don't worry. We are fine. There is no problem in holding on for a few days."

Hearing Shu Rong say this, Li Si breathed a sigh of relief. He also remembered that when the family of three was parasitized by peach seeds, there were still five days left, so it made no sense that the peach seeds were eliminated and they could not survive one night.

"Then you tie these thatches into small bundles like this. It will be useful for us to break out tomorrow." Li Si said, taking out some thatch from the ruins, then folding and binding them into a solid bale, and then People watch.

"Okay, Mr. Li." Several people nodded when they saw the palm-sized bundle of straw in Li Si's hand, and immediately started looking for thatch nearby.

Fortunately, Chen Zhongyang's house itself was made of wood and thatch, so there was a lot of thatch, so it was not difficult to search.

While they were looking for thatch, Li Si gave Xiao Duan an order to protect the safety of these people and cut off any tree roots if they came out.

After giving the order, he started searching among the ruins to see if there was anything useful.

After searching for a while, he found a few white radishes, a few pumpkins, four bamboo baskets and some sundries while rummaging through the ruins.

Li Si immediately asked Xiao Duan to come over and clean out the debris, vegetables and the bamboo baskets.

There are four bamboo baskets in total, and two are relatively large bamboo baskets, about half a meter high and about half a meter in diameter. Generally speaking, this kind is used to carry rice for farmers. Li Si had seen people using this to carry goods in Fengmen County before.

The other two are about the same size as his bookcase and can hold a small amount of things. They are two backpacks. I don't know what they are used for. They may have been used to hold herbs or the like.

Fortunately, these things are made of bamboo and have a certain degree of toughness. In addition, the house itself is made of wooden boards and thatch and is not very heavy. Therefore, after the house collapsed, these bamboo baskets were still quite intact.

Then Li Si put the vegetables and sundries into the bamboo baskets, and then he and Xiao Duan took the bamboo baskets to the campfire.

Several people looked at the bamboo basket swinging in the air next to Li Si and swallowed their saliva. There was a look of fear in their eyes. Although they had seen Li Si's magic before, they were still a little scared when they saw this scene. .

Li Si did not explain to them, but asked Xiao Duan to put down the bamboo baskets and said, "We will use these bamboo baskets to hold the thatch tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he took out a few pumpkins from the bamboo basket and stuffed them into the bonfire with wood on top.

In fact, Li Si didn't know how the pumpkin simmered like this would taste, but it should be edible when it's ripe.

There is no time to cook a delicious meal now, so I can only use this simple method to make something to eat, quickly recover my strength, tie the thatch into bundles, and prepare for tomorrow.

Seeing this, the other four people said nothing and continued to tie the straw bales with their heads down.

Even the little girl named Shu Min gritted her teeth and tied the straw bales.

After Li Si stuffed the vegetables into the bonfire, he also sat down and started working with a few others.

"My dear friend, are you going to Zetian Mansion to take the exam this time?" Shu Rong asked Li Si after Li Si sat down to do some work.

Li Si nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I am going to Zetian Mansion to take the exam."

Seeing what Li Si said, Shu Rong frowned, with a puzzled look on his face, and said strangely: "Then why did my benefactor appear here? You must know that this place is not on the official road."

When He Zhong on the side saw Shu Rong asking this question, his face suddenly showed embarrassment. His old face turned a little red, and he lowered his head and tied up the straw bundles seriously, as if he didn't hear anything.

Now He Zhong just wanted to find a gap to slip in, but he couldn't explain it. Should he tell them that he and Mr. Li were led astray by ghosts and came here?

This will only make everyone more nervous. As an old Jianghu, he knows that he must not tell everyone about this matter now.

Li Si pondered for a moment, glanced at He Zhong, and said with a smile: "We got lost on the way and ended up here."

Seeing what Li Si said, Shu Rong suddenly understood, sighed, and said: "I thought my benefactor knew that there was a group of bandits near Shiniu Mountain, so he took a detour. You know, the reason why we took a detour before was because he knew There's a gang of robbers there."

"I just didn't expect that this robber encountered this evil thing instead of encountering it, and almost lost his life. If you hadn't come to rescue me, my family of three would have been dead."

When Shu Rong said this, there was a look of panic and fear on his face.

Hearing Shu Rong's words, Li Si also had a look of understanding on his face. He had been surprised before. Since this family of three came from Jingning County, they should have taken the same route as himself, how could they end up in Taoyuan.

Now it seems that they were trying to avoid bandits.

"Don't the government care about this bandit?" Li Si suddenly became confused. Since there are bandits on the pipeline, the government must take care of it.

Hearing what Li Si said, Shu Rong showed a sad look and sighed: "There is no way to manage this. Jingning County has been devastated by the drought, and it is difficult to allocate manpower to take care of it."

"In addition, the bandits are hard to find. They are very familiar with the surrounding environment and often come and go without a trace. It will be even more difficult for the government to exterminate this group of bandits."

When Li Si heard what Shu Rong said, his heart felt a little clogged and he felt uncomfortable.

He is not a fool. Even if the bandits are forced to do so by this era, then they are not heroes, but a group of evil ghosts who lie on the bodies of ordinary people and suck blood. He never thought of these bandits as heroes who robbed the rich and gave to the poor.

"Hey...my poor brother was killed by bandits. Even his wife and daughter didn't escape and were caught in Shiniu Mountain."

Shu Rong's words also confirmed Li Si's conjecture. This group of bandits was indeed not a group of heroes, but a group of real desperadoes. This is also very realistic. If the guess is correct, Shu Rong's brother's wife and daughter may have suffered an accident. .

"My condolences." Li Si didn't know what to say at this time, and couldn't do anything but let them express their condolences.

Then everyone fell into silence. The family of three obviously thought about the death of their loved ones and fell into grief. Li Si didn't want to talk about these things now.

He could still distinguish the priorities. The important thing now was not the bandits, but the peach forest surrounding them.
