Chapter 435 Clothes, food, shelter and transportation
The mood of spring is strong and the sky is clear. Mobile version
The Yin Yang Valley is fresh but not quiet, everything is full of vitality, and the cicadas are often chirping in your ears.
Two days ago, the blind sand bug swarm started to attack for the first time after passing through the dormant period. After Leng Mei confirmed that the Qinglian colloid she prepared was effective, Jiang Yichen's healing process was on the right track.
Compared with the initial results of eye treatment, Jiang Yichen's overall recovery from injuries is obvious.
Two days after he woke up, the bruises on his trunk and limbs had subsided.
Three days later, the left hand returned to normal.
Four days later, I finally regained consciousness in my right hand.
After five days, you will be able to sit up and stand up.
By the sixth day, I could walk slowly on the ground.
For a person who suffered from severe poison and fell from a cliff of ten thousand feet, this recovery speed is not unreasonable.
Among them, there is no lack of the pleasant climate in the valley which is very beneficial to the injured, there is also the lack of the traditional Chinese medicine in the valley that is very helpful, and there is also the lack of beautiful people taking care of them to make recovery smooth. However, the most important reason is not the first three, but the injury. The person has a strong will to restore himself to his original state.
As for why Jiang Yichen has such a strong will, although it has something to do with the unfinished business outside the Yin-Yang Valley and his unwillingness to spend the rest of his life in vain, but without knowing whether he can leave the valley, his focus is obviously not on the outside, but on the outside. It lies in some reasons that are appropriate to the current situation.
For the past few days, the two of them had been alone in the same room for a long time, so naturally they had some conversations.
Jiang Yichen either expressed his gratitude to Leng Mei, or chatted with him about what happened when Leng Mei was away from Jianghu for the past year and a half.
Leng Mei's topics were mostly about how to get Jiang Yichen to cooperate in treating the blinding sand poison, or some trivial matters related to her life in the valley for the past year and a half.
From Leng Mei's words, it was not difficult for Jiang Yichen to learn several key points of life in Yin Yang Valley.
They don't have to worry about eating and drinking.
The climate in Yin Yang Valley is not only pleasant for people, but also suitable for food.
There are so many medicinal herbs here, and naturally there are also flowers and plants, fruits and vegetables, and all kinds of birds and animals.
Herbs can grow, flowers and plants can grow, fruits and vegetables can grow, and birds and animals can grow here, just because the water here is abundant and the streams are sweet.
In order to facilitate daily meals, Leng Mei opened an acre of land in front of the house, spread rice, planted vegetables, built fences, and raised chickens and ducks.
They don't have to worry about living either.
They have a house to live in.
The house is a mixed house of grass, wood, bamboo and stone that Leng Mei spent more than ten days to build and continued to repair and improve in the following days.
The house was originally only one foot square. It contained everything including a bed, table, chairs, and a small stove made of stones of different thicknesses, all made by Leng Mei.
All the objects in this collection were made of vegetation, bamboo, and stone, and there was no iron tool. Therefore, pots, bowls, pans, and other small items would become useless after a short period of time, so they had to be replaced again and again.
Now that there was a new person in the house, Leng Mei spent a lot of effort to widen the house a little and also added a new bed for herself.
The only thing they have to worry about is clothing.
Leng Mei is very capable.
Leng Mei's skill lies not only in assassination, but also in survival.
Therefore, she can collect medicines and brew them to heal herself and others.
She can hunt, plant, make fire and cook food to feed herself, and she can also feed others.
She can chop wood, split bamboo, and grind stone to accommodate her body, and she can also accommodate other people's bodies.
However, manpower will eventually be limited.
Leng Mei is a human being and is not omnipotent.
She doesn't know how to cast iron and can't make iron tools for daily life. She can only rely on the Han Gongzhigui to do rough work of cutting iron like mud, or use the Hangong Zhelui to cut bamboo and carve wood to imitate some wooden and bamboo tools. Make a substitution.
She can't weave, or she can't make weaving tools, nor can she make weaving materials.
She doesn't even know how to take the skins of wild beasts and use them as clothing.
Therefore, the most scarce things in the valley are cloth, linen and other clothing items.
The gauze used to wrap Jiang Yichen's dressings at first was what the two of them carried with them on a daily basis. Although they were diligent in cleaning it, after frequent and repeated use, the gauze gradually fell into pieces and became ribbons.
The leaves replace the gauze's function.
It was late autumn when Leng Mei fell into the valley, and she wore more clothes at that time. Soon after arriving in the valley, Leng Mei dismantled her into two sets of replacement clothes.
Although Jiang Yichen arrived when it was warm but still cold, he didn't have much clothes on, and they were badly damaged after falling off the bridge. Even with sewing and repair, he could only make up one set.
This also meant that sometimes, when Jiang Yichen's clothes were too soaked with sweat and had to be replaced, Leng Mei could only change him into her own underwear.
Jiang Yichen didn't want to think about how Leng Mei served him when he was in a coma. Although he was not thick-skinned, he could take it for granted that he had no knowledge of what happened when he was in a coma. But when he was conscious, he let a woman
How could he pretend not to care when he changed into his own personal clothes?
Even though Leng Mei put on the clothes for himself the day before yesterday after he fell asleep due to exhaustion, but when he woke up, he obviously found that his slimy and smelly body was fresh and clean, but the clothes that should have fit him were a little tight. How could he not know this?
How many things did that strong woman with a cold face do for him while she was sleeping?
The only thing that made him slightly fortunate was that the temperature in the valley was suitable. Normally, he wouldn't sweat as much as he did the day before. This embarrassing and shy thing didn't have to happen every day.
However, after all, there are only three pieces of clothing between the two of them. As time goes by, the clothes will inevitably wear out. If there is no day to leave the valley, one day they will have to weave clothes from leaves, grass and ropes. By then,
Will something happen again that makes him embarrassed and shy?
If he hadn't arrived, Leng Mei's leisurely and peaceful daily life would not have been broken.
If she hadn't come by herself, Leng Mei wouldn't have given up the only bamboo couch to her in the past few days, and she would have slept on the spot.
If Leng Mei hadn't come by herself, why would Leng Mei have given up all her clothes and exchanged them with someone? She would have washed, cooked and fed someone, and even helped someone wash herself.
Because of this, because of that, Jiang Yichen always thought that he was an uninvited guest.
It would be fine if he was unaware, but he was clearly aware of everything that happened, but he couldn't see these things that happened clearly.
There was a sense of shame and annoyance in his chest, and a sense of weakness beneath his skin, but he did not dare and could not express these hidden emotions to Leng Mei, even though Leng Mei's heart was clear.
Therefore, he could only vent his thoughts and energy on physical recovery.
As long as his body remains intact, some problems can always be solved.
For example, he can now wash himself with his left hand, even though there is a blind spot that cannot be reached.
Now that my feet can move, I can use the bamboo stick to walk to the right place and clean up the mess on my own.
He has been able to solve some things within his power, so there is no need for Leng Mei to serve him day and night.
Compared to Jiang Yichen's various discomforts, Leng Mei was much more natural and adaptable.
Although she had indeed served others intentionally or indirectly because she had received training as a killer and carried out the work of a killer, she had never been so devoid of any other purpose or thought, just to make that person recover.
Serve that person wholeheartedly by eating, drinking, sleeping, sleeping.
She knew very well that she had changed and was no longer the same person as before.
Perhaps she had begun to change herself from the moment she jumped off the Yin-Yang Bridge, and Jiang Yichen's arrival was just to illustrate an extremely simple and obvious truth. There is not only one person in this world, but anyone.
They all want to live alone, because it is the mutual activities of others that make the world known.
Or maybe she is what she should be now.
Killers are good at observing words and expressions, and after thousands of trainings and practices, this has almost become an instinct.
Leng Mei is a better killer than Jiang Yichen. Of course she has this instinct, so it is not difficult for her to feel Jiang Yichen's complicated inner changes and emotional depression.
But seeing through it without telling it off, Jiang Yichen's behavior is also a sign of perseverance and positivity, and it is a sign worthy of respect.
So when Jiang Yichen began to be able to take care of some things in his own life, Leng Mei gradually returned to his original comfortable life, taking Abai to wander around the house every day, collecting herbs along the way, and cooking more meals.
