《Apocalypse in Ancient Life》Chapter 6
Advertisement
Half a month later, the yard of the house was almost finished, and the custom-made furniture from the carpenter was also delivered. Finally, the gate of the yard was replaced and the things were put in. Pei Shaorong immediately moved out from Aunt Qin's house.
After paying a few villagers for the work, Pei Shaorong spent a day tidying up the house, making the bed, making the pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
After saying goodbye to Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin, Pei Shaorong couldn't wait to move into his ancient nest in another world.
After solving his identity and household registration housing, Pei Shaorong began to think about his future life.
In fact, Pei Shaorong was already thinking about this question when it first came, but until now, he still has no clue.
The safest thing is of course to farm like the people in the village, but the problem is that he can endure hardship and work, but he doesn't know how to farm.
Not to mention that before the apocalypse, he was a rich second generation who did not distinguish between the five grains. After the apocalypse, there was no chance for him to learn the skill of planting, and it would be more practical for him to kill zombies.
Don't think about farming in a short period of time, but what can you do without farming, do you want to take the imperial examination? This is even more unrealistic, not to mention that he is a scumbag in modern reading, but in ancient times when all traditional Chinese characters are used, he is not much different from the illiterate.
Doing business seems to be more practical, but what can I sell? He can't always sell things in the space. He has no capital and no connections, so he can only start as a small trader.
But there are already several businessmen in the village, and the business has almost been wiped out. It seems unrealistic for him to want to participate... After thinking about it, he
thought that in the end Pei Shaorong started to scold his mother again, and finally decided to go hunting in the mountains. Bar.
Anyway, I have killed zombies in my previous life, so hunting is still not a problem. For the time being, I will see if there are other suitable ones before changing careers!
After the decision was made, Pei Shaorong went to Qin's house the next day to inquire about the situation in the back mountain of the village with Uncle Qin. He picked a bow and crossbow from the space and began to go up the mountain to hunt.
After a few years of messing around in the last days, Pei Shaorong is still very skilled in fighting and killing.
There were a lot of wild animals in ancient times, and after spending a few days in the mountains, Pei Shaorong gained a lot.
......
Pei Shaorong was wearing a vine net that he made up to cover up hunting in the grass. Yesterday he found a wild deer wandering in this area.
Deer is a good thing, and it is full of treasures. If you catch a wild deer, the pair of antlers alone will have to sell for a lot of money, but it is worth more than the pheasant and mountain rabbits he has hunted these days.

He had been lying motionless in the same place for almost an hour, and his limbs were a little numb, but this was nothing to Pei Shaorong. There were many hardships in the last days. Hunting requires patience.
After waiting for a while, there was still no sign of the wild deer. Pei Shaorong decided to squat in another place. Suddenly, it became dark in front of him. A figure squatted in front of him with his hips facing his face...
"Brother Lin, here , I'm here..."
Mo Xiaobao found the dense grass and squatted down to hide, when he saw Lin Ge'er who was walking towards him with a basket in the distance, he quickly waved hello, but the voice was not loud and cautious.
"A Bao!"
Hearing his cry, Brother Lin also carefully ran over with a basket and squatted across from him to give the basket in his hand to the past. "Here, these things are enough for you to eat for a few days..."
"Thank you... Brother Lin, are my parents going to retire?" Mo Xiaobao happily took the basket and stuffed a nest in his mouth, he was so hungry.
"Not yet, the Pan family went to your house yesterday to make trouble. Your parents are looking for you everywhere... Bao, what are you going to do? You can't hide in the mountains all the time..." Brother Lin stared worriedly. With Mo Xiaobao.
Hearing this, Mo Xiaobao lost the smile on his face, swallowed his head and said, "Brother Lin, I don't want to, I really don't know what to do..."
"Pan Blacksmith is out of the neighboring village. The famous second-rate bastard, I don't despise him because of his age and poor family, anyway, my reputation in the village is not much better..."
"But he is a bad alcoholic and beats people. I heard that his former wife was alive. He tossed and hanged himself..."
"I don't want to marry him, I told my father, but my brother-in-law is going to go to the government for the exam and needs money, and my father said that he will help my brother-in-law to collect travel expenses, the dowry gift from the Pan family. He has already sent it to my sister, and it is impossible to return it to the Pan family..."
Hearing Mo Xiaobao's words, Lin Ge'er felt a little sympathetic, and then showed a trace of resentment, "It's all my fault, that goddamn Wang Afu, who obviously made a marriage with you. You also hooked up with others, and Liu Meihua, which ruined your reputation and left it until now..."
"The most diligent and capable little brother in our village belongs to you, but those two caused you to delay so far..."
" "..."
Mo Xiaobao didn't speak, but there was a trace of resentment on his face, and he obviously hated the two Wang Afu and Liu Meihua that Lin Ge'er spoke of.
Then the two said a few more words, afraid that people would find that Lin Ge'er didn't dare to stay for long, so they left quickly, leaving Mo Xiaobao squatting in the grass in a daze.

He really doesn't know what to do now, and he also knows that this mountain is not safe, and it is impossible to hide in the mountain for the rest of his life.
But if he returned to the village, he would immediately have to marry into the Pan family. It was a big fire pit, and it would be over if he jumped into it.
Just thinking about it, Mo Xiaobao suddenly felt someone pat him, and when he turned around, he saw a man lying on his back with his face facing his butt, which made him startled.
After regaining his senses, he quickly stood up and took a step back, Mo Xiaobao's face was embarrassed and angry, "You...why are you lying behind my butt! Rogue!"
"..." Pei Shaorong got up from the ground, paused, He said, "I'm lying down here well, why are you scolding me when you squatted down by yourself?"
"Then, why don't you say anything..."
"I want to say something, I don't have a chance when you talk so hard. Interject..."
Pei Shaorong tore off the vine net from his body, patted the soil, stared at the boy in front of him with an innocent face, but he didn't expect to hear gossip even while hunting.
Looking up and down the little brother in front of him, Pei Shaorong was a little curious. It turned out that this was the legendary man who could have children.
To be honest, after knowing that there is still a man in this world who can have children, he is more curious than shocked, which is really incredible for modern people.
However, in the days of ancient times, he never had the chance to see, and when he saw the villagers on weekdays, he couldn't tell the difference between a man and a little brother.
Even if he was curious, he couldn't just walk up and ask "Hey, buddy, are you the kind of man who can have children?"
That's just the rhythm of looking for a fight, so until now, he really hasn't seen the little brother up close.
The young man in front of him was about eighteen or nineteen years old. He was handsome and handsome. Pei Shaorong didn't see any difference between him and a real man...
Seeing Pei Shaorong staring at him all the time, Mo Xiaobao blushed and was a little embarrassed, but thinking that his conversation with Lin Geer was overheard by this person, he suddenly started to worry again.
He hurriedly stared at Pei Shaorong and said anxiously, "You...you are not allowed to say what you heard just now, you have to tell me about you!"
"What's the matter? Are you talking about your escape from marriage?" Shao Rong was stunned, then smiled and said, "If I tell you the truth, how are you going to stop me? Hit me?"
After speaking, he looked up and down Mo Xiaobao's little arms and legs.
"..."
Mo Xiaobao was so swallowed that he couldn't speak. He looked at the tall and strong man in front of him, his face flushed with anxiety, and when he saw Pei Shaorong staring at him all the time, he was immediately ashamed and angry, "What are you looking at? , hooligan!"
"What's wrong with looking at you, there's not a lot of meat..." Pei Shaorong looked at Mo Xiaobao and said with a smile, "I stood here and didn't move, I didn't kiss you and touch you, where are you a hooligan... "..."
"You, you were lying on my fart just now... behind me!" Mo Xiaobao was extremely angry.
"I said that you came here by yourself..."
"Rogue!" Mo Xiaobao scolded angrily, then turned around with the basket in hand, deciding not to talk nonsense with this person, he had to find a place to hide quickly.
Seeing that Mo Xiaobao was about to leave, Pei Shaorong smiled, then followed up and grabbed the man's arm, which immediately attracted Mo Xiaobao's shy and angry eyes.
Pei Shaorong paused, then let go of his hand and explained, "There are a lot of beasts over there! It's not enough for you to stuff their teeth in the past..."
He was telling the truth. After staying in the mountains for a few days, he still didn't know much about the surrounding environment. It's familiar, there are many poisonous snakes and beasts there.
"..." Mo Xiaobao didn't speak, and looked at the forest in front of him with a hint of fear on his face.
"I know a safe cave..." Seeing him embarrassed, Pei Shaorong continued pointing in another direction.
"You walk over there, keep walking for about a quarter of an hour and you will see a cave half a person high. I have rested there for the past few days, it is very safe, you can hide there..."
"You...what are you doing? Help me?"
Mo Xiaobao pursed his lips and stared at Pei Shaorong with some vigilance, they didn't know each other, why did this person help him with kindness, and just wanted to tell him about it.
"Well... Is it okay for Lu Jian to draw a knife to help? It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, anyway, let's just say, you can find a place again if you don't believe me, it's getting late, you'd better find a place to hide quickly, There are many beasts in the mountains at night..."
After speaking, Pei Shaorong stared at Mo Xiaobao and smiled.
"I don't believe you..."
Mo Xiaobao was obviously wary of him. He didn't believe what Pei Shaorong said at all. He took the basket and left, but chose another direction.
"..." Touching his
nose, Pei Shaorong stared in the direction Mo Xiaobao left and stood there for a while, before taking a few hares out of the space and carrying them back to the village.

Disclaimer: This novel is a work in progress and will be updated hopefully at least once a week. Expect minor mistakes (maybe some typos and punctuation errors) since this is the very first draft. The author suffers from perfectionism and impostor syndrome and therefore attempts to use this as sort of a therapy to break away from perfectionism and self doubt. Basically, the author employs a “I don’t care anymore and screw this trash work” mindset just to get stuff rolling and not set any expectations. Basically, basically, the author just wants to write something and not care about planning and quality and all those nice things about writing a GOOD novel since it’s counterproductive.
