Chapter 444 Borrowing the Wall

Han Yiming and Chen Ruofu were both stunned. Unexpectedly, there were many women living in the room, one older than the other. The old woman was very old, but she could still see that she was a family with the women before. Although her face was old, her behavior and expression were still similar to those before. Even her appearance was slightly similar. Lu Jingxin had jumped up, walked to the door, saluted the old woman, and reached out to support the old woman: "This old man, we brothers passed by this place, and it seems that we can't leave today. Can you bother you and stay here for one night?"

The old woman was helped in by him and sat down by the bed. Before she could speak, Lu Jingxin said, "Junior brother, get water for the old man quickly, wash the water scoop first." Han Yiming said "Oh", and hurried to the sink to wash the water scoop, scooped a scoop of water, held it in both hands, and handed it to the old woman. The old woman didn't have time to speak, took the scoop first, drank a few sips of water, wiped the corners of her mouth, and then said, "Well, several guests, I have female friends in my room, so it's really not convenient to stay here for a stay. Please don't be surprised."

Han Yiming knew that the house was narrow and had lived in these women of old and young, so it was really inconvenient for them to stay overnight. But suddenly he felt that although there were no ferocious beasts here, this family had no males, but they could still live here safely. If there were many men living here, it would be reasonable. If there were fierce beasts coming, the man could at least resist it for a while, but how could a few weak women resist it? Besides, the light of Senior Brother Chen’s sword was really directed to this side. This family was afraid that it was really impressive!

But I heard from Senior Brother Lu, "This old man, we know that your family is full of female relatives, so it is not convenient to stay here. But in the wilderness, I can't find a more appropriate place to rest for a while, so I have to ask you to open a page and let us spend the night in front of your house. Your family is full of female relatives, which is really inconvenient, so we only lend you the open space in front of your house and never step into the house." The old woman hesitated for a while

, said slowly, "This, this is not good!" Lu Jingxin said, "You old man doesn't have to take care of us. We have dry food on us, but we just borrow a treasure land in front of your house and leave overnight. This is also a remote place. If any beast comes, we can resist it for a while. I just beg you for a convenience! As for the house, we will never take a step, so please rest assured!"

The old woman obviously didn't expect that Lu Jingxin's words were so vague. She stopped and said, "Since they are sleeping outside the house, what is the difference between my house and other places? The guests don't have to stay outside my house?" Her voice was old, and all older people were like this. Han Yiming couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted. If the senior brother hadn't told him first, maybe he would ask the senior brother not to make things difficult for the old woman anymore. As the old woman said, how is the difference between her outside the house and other places?

However, Lu Jingxin said: "Old man, it's convenient to walk. Although this place is no different from that place, there is always a stronger place to rely on. There is a wall to lean on, but it is always stronger than nothing to rely on. When we go out, when we see someone, we always feel warmer in our hearts. Even beggars always like to sit and lie in front of others. The only thing we have to do is to stay down-to-earth. We sleep too much outside, we can't be at ease. We don't lend you every grass or thing, but only rely on the wall to lean on it overnight. We also ask you to agree." It's because we have no intention of leaving.

The old woman was speechless. After a long time, she said, "That's it. I borrow a wall to rely on you. But I have to say first. No matter what happens at night, you can't step into the house." Chen Ruofu asked before Lu Jingxinzhi, "Old man, even if the tiger and leopard are coming, can't we come in and avoid it?" Han Yiming knew that his question was the meaning of General Yijun, so he didn't say a word, but just listened. But he heard the old woman say, "Of course, even if the tiger and leopard are coming, you can't come in. You will meet tiger and leopard everywhere you sleep. I don't care wherever you escape, but you can't step into the house!"

The old woman was really tough. Han Yiming and Chen Ruofu looked at each other, but Lu Jingxin said, "Just as you mean, even if the tiger and leopard come today, we won't step into this place." Han Yiming was confused. It was awkward to hear this. But since Senior Brother Lu said this, he must have his intention. Don't care too much for the time being, just wait and see what the changes are.

After a while, the room became darker and darker. Lu Jingxin said, "Two junior brothers, let's go outside the house." Han Yiming and Chen Ruofu came out of the house together and sat down at the corner of the wall. The room was much darker than outside. The old woman did not light the light. There was still skylight outside the house, but the light was much dimmed, but the surroundings could still be seen clearly. The old woman in the house had been sitting by the bed, as if she had never moved. Han Yiming quietly looked inside the house, and it was already dark in the middle, so dark that her hands were not visible!

The three of them sat under the eaves by the wall and passed for a while. They heard their feet dragging and walking closer. With a "bang", the wooden door was closed. It was the old woman who came to close the door by herself. Han Yiming felt that it was indescribable in his heart, but he couldn't tell where it was strange. Lu Jingxin was igniting the fire on the side, but he couldn't light it up. There was no way out. The three of them had to chew the dry and cold hard cake and swallow it, barely filling their stomachs.

This scallion oil pancake is very fragrant when eaten hot, but it is very dry and choked when eaten cold. It is a bit unfired. It is impossible to light it here, so I can't roast it, so I can only eat it coldly. Han Yiming also felt hungry and barely ate two slices. Seeing that Chen Ruofu next to him stopped eating, he threw a piece of scallion oil pancake in his hand and did not put it away. For a moment, even Lu Jingxin stopped eating, and the three of them sat silently by the wall.

After a while, Chen Ruofu took the cake in his hand, walked to the door, knocked on the door, and said, "Old man, you must have never used dinner yet. I have a scallion oil pancake here, which I will put on the threshold for you." He was completely silent in the house, and reached out to pick a big leaf from the tree next to him, rubbed it on the clothes before placing the scallion oil pancake on it and put the leaves on the threshold.
