Chapter 173 Bangil
The flood season of the River of Wisdom came as scheduled, countless blank pebbles were thrown to the bank, and crazy people scrambled for the blank pebbles.
Lu Li stood by the river, holding an umbrella that has not yet been named, and threw some red-eyed guys into the river. As for the consequences of falling into the Wisdom River without protection, Lu Li should not have considered it.
Picking up an empty pebble that fell by his feet, Lu Li tapped the pebble with his hands according to the method taught by Alice, opened a transparent bubble that wrapped Lu Li in it, and then jumped into the River of Wisdom.
The transparent bubbles enter the colorful river and drift towards unknown places. The colorful light shines on the bubbles, which is extraordinarily beautiful. The colorful outside the bubbles seem to contain all the knowledge of the world , all magic.
Under the endless starry sky, a certain star shone brightly, and Lu Li also felt a tentacles enter the bubble, and Lu Li's task panel also changed within it:
[Sub-Dungeon: Candy House in the Forest]
...
Bangier, who is 13 years old this year, is the eldest son of the family. Early in the morning, before dawn, he got up from the bed and put on his fur to prevent the cold fog and biting cold wind in the morning.
The current season is slowly coming to the end of summer. Before the sun comes out, the fog and cold wind will make you feel the breath of winter.
Bangier rubbed a pair of red hands, holding a somewhat worn-out wooden barrel, and walked towards the river in the distance.
In this small village by the forest, it is not as prosperous as in a big city. There is no well in the village. If you want to use water, you have to go to the river outside the village to fetch water. Whether feeding cows or cleaning, you need to wait for this bucket of water.
Bangier, who was carrying a wooden bucket, came to the river, carefully found a safe place, and put the wooden bucket into the river to fetch water.
He looked around vigilantly, paying attention to any danger that might be approaching. Last week, Helen from the house next door was dragged into the forest by an unknown beast passing by the river.
Although wild beasts in the forest generally do not come out of the forest, there are always a few examples. For the sake of his own life, Bangier has always been very careful, not only in his own life, but also in his education of his sister.
Thinking of his sister Coranti, Bangier's heart sank a little. The people who lived in the small village outside the forest were not rich, and it was difficult for them to support themselves. After all, if conditions permit, who wouldn't want to live in a safe town? It stinks a bit though.
Families that find it difficult to support themselves will naturally try to do everything in order to support themselves. For example, Bangier gets up every morning to fetch water for cooking, and later he will mow the grass to feed the cows.
Recently, both father and mother have no time, so Bangier needs to travel all afternoon to bring the stored milk to the town to sell in exchange for some money and buy some black bread.
Then he had to hide the black bread and the wooden barrel, find a way to do odd jobs in the town, and wanted to spend the night in the town without being cold to death, and fled back with the wooden barrel and black bread the next day.
Yes, after escaping back, the gangsters in the town like him the most. If they catch Bangier, then the black bread and the like will definitely be looted, and they will be beaten up.
In addition to the above, Banguir, who will be home, has to do a lot of housework. People in this era, especially the poor, are alive every day is a miracle.
As for the younger sister, Coranti, who is almost 10 years old this year, it is estimated that she may be sold in a short time, and it is possible to become someone else's slave or stand on the street.
Lifting the wooden bucket full of water, Bangier looked at the source of the river, which spread out from the distant forest. The river was filled with mist in the forest. The mist seemed to turn black under the shadow of the forest. .
An inexplicable panic appeared in Bangier's heart. The plan he had made long ago became a little hesitant. People around him came to fetch water intermittently. There were adults and children here, and they were all people whose lives were not easy.
Bangier was walking back with a wooden bucket full of water. Another young man touched him lightly and gave him a look. Bangier nodded after hesitation, and returned home with the bucket.
The young man's name is Cole, who is two years older than Bangier, and it was he, another person and Bangier who made the plan. What Cole did just now, Bangier understands, that is, he will find it later. Time, old place to meet.
The younger sister Koranti has already got up and is lighting the fire. Seeing Bangier coming back, Koranti showed a smile on her brother's immature face, and then continued to blow the flame with her head down, her little face was covered with black ash.
Bangier's heart warmed slightly, and he hurried over to set up the pot, poured the returned water into the pot, put a small amount of black bread and some wild vegetables into it, and a small piece of it had been stored for some time, and it had turned black pieces of dried meat.
With the sound of the wooden door, Bangier's father and mother got up. They needed the village head's house today to discuss some matters. Bangil tried to behave as well as possible after his parents finished eating.
Bangier and his younger sister were eating some soup with some leftovers, and then saw his father and mother walking out of the house with the only weapon in the family, the bow and arrow used by his father for hunting. Bangier thought to himself, damn it.
Listening absently to his father's instructions on feeding the cows and buying milk, Bangier glanced at the bow and arrow that was going away from him, and he hesitated even more in his heart.
"Maybe father won't sell my sister? After all, my sister is so cute." Bangier made an excuse for his plan to give up, and walked towards the cowshed with the hay.
The two cows are the family's biggest source of income other than the father's hunting. It can even be said that he and his sister are not necessarily as important as these two cows.
"I'm going to sell the milk at a higher price this afternoon. I'll talk to my father when I come back tomorrow. Maybe my sister won't be sold." Bangier walked to the cowshed and was about to put the hay in. The next moment his His face was white.
All the blood faded from the already withered face, making Bangier look like a dead person. In the cowshed, the two cows fell to the ground with blue skin, foaming in their mouths, breathing heavily. With little breath, it seemed that he couldn't survive.
And in the corner of the bullpen, there was a big black snake, spitting snake letters, staring at Banguier with its small eyes.
Bangier felt that those eyes were full of the mockery of fate. The cow died, and half of the family's income was cut off. His sister would definitely be sold out now, maybe even he would not be spared.
Bangier felt something pinching his neck, making his breathing difficult and heavy. Thinking of his sister's smiling face, Bangier threw the dry grass in his hand, without any hesitation in his heart.
All to protect my lovely sister.
