Chapter 53

Everyone looked at Han Dongwen and fell silent for a while.

"Okay, there is one for you, you..."

Brother Li was too lazy to talk so much, so he was naturally happy at the moment. He patted his forehead, but stopped in the middle of the sentence.

"Gu Hanyang."

Han Dongwen posted his pseudonym.

"Here's the new one, fine, fine!"

Brother Li stepped forward to take back the account book, glanced at Uncle Kun, and said cheerfully, "It's a deal, old Kun, you're also working with this kid."

Uncle Kun was about to say something when Brother Li turned around and walked back. Han Dongwen patted him on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, Uncle Kun, we have work to do, so we don't need to explore the mountains."

"What live?"

Uncle Kun blinked his eyes, and the two brothers Da Bian and San Bian behind him came up.

Han Dongwen couldn't say it directly, he just said: "There is a job appointed, I have news, and even if you don't catch up, I can protect you in the mountains."

He was telling the truth. Several people had seen Han Dongwen's skills when he was killing wolves on Bailan Mountain.

Da Bian thought for a moment, but he untied a sickle for cutting wheat roots tied to his body, stuffed it into the arms of his younger brother San Bian, and pushed him outside: "You go to collect herbs, I will stay here .”

Da Bian is naturally still worried, and wants to try again by himself, and can't let his younger brother San Bian take the risk together.

"Brother, I..."

San Bian was stunned, and just about to say a few words, Da Bian raised his hand and said loudly, "Brother Li! I'm joining the work team, let my brother go to gather medicine!"

Brother Li listened, and nodded disapprovingly: "Okay, then come here."

"Go!"

Da Bian pushed his younger brother with a palm, San Bian staggered two steps, and looked at his elder brother.

"Your second brother's legs don't know if he can do it yet, we can't have an accident together!" Da Bian said seriously with a straight face.

Sanbian felt sad, bit her lower lip and nodded heavily, picked up her footsteps, turned around and walked towards the team of herbal pickers.

The crowd moved.

From whispering at the beginning, to pushing and shoving each other, to scrambling for the first place.

They all moved in the direction of the herbal collection team.

"Why do we need so many people!"

Brother Li frowned, and flicked at the account book in his hand: "I want another thirty, and if there are more, go to the work team. Why are you all crowded here?"

After he finished speaking, he shook his head and muttered: "One by one, I really think how capable the wild wolf is..."

The crowd pushed and shoved, but they didn't lean towards Han Dongwen and the others.

Brother Li counted thirty people, and the rest were just downcast, and some squatted down on the spot.

But Han Dongwen was still only surrounded by Uncle Kun and Da Bian. The three of them stood alone, looking a little funny.

"What's the matter, don't you want to work, don't you want money?"

Brother Li cursed, but the crowd made little movement and stayed where they were.

After all, they are outside contractors, not slaves, so they cannot be forced to join the labor team and go up the mountain.

"Okay, the medicine team, come with me."

Brother Li couldn't persuade everyone to join Han Dongwen, and he was a little annoyed: "You guys are lazy, eat more than pigs, and are less courageous than chickens! Go back if you want!"

"Brother Li, I heard that there are really crazy wolves on the mountain."

Someone muttered, Li Ge took a look at that person, he didn't care about money, turned around and walked in front of Han Dongwen, and looked them up and down: "There are only three of you, but if you want wages, you have to explore the ground, Rest for two days, and enter the mountain when the arrangement is settled!"

Han Dongwen was not annoyed, he smiled and asked, "Brother Li, if there is a building to build, don't you need to go into the mountain?"

Brother Li curled his lips: "That's natural, but I won't lie to you. The buildings in this sect are all newly built, and there is nothing to repair and add, so don't make any calculations."

After finishing speaking, he took a piece of red cloth sewn from his pocket and threw it to Han Dongwen: "Just you guys can't do anything, and I will let you be the captain. If you have the ability in the past few days, find a few more people." If you don't have the ability to go up the mountain, then you three can ask for blessings."

After finishing speaking, Brother Li shook his sleeves, greeted the dozens of "lucky ones" who could enter the medicine team, and walked into the sect.

The crowd made a few noises, and they just scattered. Obviously, it was not the first time that they couldn't find something to live.

When many people passed by Han Dongwen and the three of them, they also showed gloating expressions.

What I don't have is a job, but what you don't have is life.

That's what that look means.

Uncle Kun folded his hands with a serious face, Han Dongwen turned around and patted him and Da Bian on the shoulders: "Let's rest first, you are all staying in the work team, so just trust me."

Da Bian sighed: "Can you really... not go into the mountains?"

"If you enter the mountain, I will try my best to take care of you." Uncle Kun said firmly with a straight face.

Han Dongwen only nodded, Da Bian twisted his neck, looked worriedly in the direction where San Bian left, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

The three of them were already half dead from exhaustion, and they didn't even care about eating. Uncle Kun took Da Bian and Han Dongwen back to the work shed where the Han Yingzong's outer gate lived, found a bed and lay down.

The environment of the work shed can only be said to be able to accommodate people. Six people and three high and low beds are a compartment. The walls are built with some thin plywood boards, and the roof is covered with a few layers of oilcloth to prevent rain. It's not fixed either.

Da Bian pulled out a broken sack from the side of his old berth. Inside was a bedding that he had slept on for many years. Han Dongwen looked a little surprised: "Aren't you afraid of being stolen?"

Da Bian shook his head and patted his chest: "The three of us don't have anything of value. The money we earn is kept for food, and the rest is kept at home. Everyone has this quilt, mug and so on. , it’s not worth the money.”

Han Dongwen had no property, so he sat there for a while, waiting for Da Bian to move the bunk to lie down next to him and Uncle Kun, and the two soon fell asleep snoring like thunder.

"call……"

Han Dongwen let out a long breath, and lay down on his hard bunk, closing his eyes.

------

After a while, Han Dongwen opened his eyes in the bedroom.

He yawned a lot, looked up at his dragon bed in the style of carving dragons, and stared blankly for a while.

One is the plank of the shed, and the other is such a soft dragon bed.

Han Dongwen felt a little inexplicably irritated. Looking outside the window lattice, he realized that it was almost dark, and the road down the mountain was much longer than he thought.

Strangely, he wasn't particularly sleepy either.

Han Dongwen got up, put on his usual casual robe, moved his body from side to side, and took a few deep breaths.

"system!"

He whispered something.

But nothing happened.

"Sure enough, only Unit [-] can see the panel..."

Han Dongwen regretted secretly, looked up at the ceiling of the bedroom, and suddenly his heart moved.

I wonder if Luoyan can do it?
He took two steps back, took a breath, and jumped forward!
"Hey!"

Han Dongwen fell to the ground, obviously Luoyan couldn't start, but just completed a standing long jump.

why is that……

He was thinking about it when suddenly his stomach growled.

That's right, after the puppet got into the marrow, he never ate or drank.

In the eyes of the people in the palace, I should have slept from morning to night. After a whole day, I wonder if there is any food prepared in the imperial dining room?

Han Dongwen walked to the door of the bedroom and pushed the door open.

 happy Winter Solstice to everyone!
