Chapter 373 Encounter?
“People need heroes, but they don’t have to be me.”
Lisha understood the meaning behind the brown-haired man's words, but she refused again.
"In that case, I won't ask your name."
The brown-haired man nodded.
Lisha tried to leave here, and when she found that there was no obstacle, she left directly.
The brown-haired man just watched Lisha leave.
He stood there for a long time until a weak, crying voice appeared.
"Excuse me, Sir Knight, have you killed the dragon?"
"it's me."
The brown-haired man said without turning his head.
"As expected of you, Sir Knight! You are truly amazing!~"
The thin boy came out from behind the tree with shining eyes.
"Do you aspire to become a knight?"
The brown-haired man turned around and looked at the skinny boy in front of him who had the same brown hair as him.
"Yeah! I want to be a hero who can save everyone. I want to change myself!"
The boy looked down at his thin body that seemed like it would fall down if the wind blew, then raised his head and said firmly.
"Then you have to work hard to eat. If you don't eat enough, you won't have the energy to exercise."
"I will!"
Encouraged by the brown-haired man, the boy nodded vigorously with excitement.
......
Lisha found that she seemed to be lost.
She may have been going in circles.
Lisha subconsciously wanted to ask Youze.
But only then did she remember that this was a dream and You Ze probably couldn't be contacted.
So Lisha could only move forward slowly relying on her intuition.
After returning to the marked spot once again, Lisha began to feel irritated.
She could hardly remember how many times she had walked this road.
Just remember that I will come back here at the end of every time.
What should I do?
Lisha stopped.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Lisha's mind.
This is a dream...
Since it is a dream, it should be solved using the method of dreams.
Lisha closed her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she had arrived at the gate of a village.
Sure enough, it came out from there.
Lisha knew she was right.
Although there is logic in dreams, this logic is based on the self-consistency of the dream itself, rather than being logical in the true sense.
It’s like a power that is so powerful that it is unreasonable. Dreams make this power seem very natural in the dream, but they don’t consider whether it is reasonable or not.
The reason why Lisha was able to arrive at a strange village after closing her eyes and opening them was because of a common logic in stories. Isn't it common? In the story, the protagonist has to hurry on his way, and then a few days later, the protagonist arrives. The process in between is completely omitted.
After all, few people like to read the boring and detailed journey process, so the writer who writes the story will naturally omit it.
Based on this principle, Lisha closed her eyes and then opened them again to indicate the passage of time, that is, waking up after a deep sleep. So naturally, she accepted the dream and directly omitted the time for traveling, and appeared at the destination she didn't know but should go to.
"anyone there?"
Lisha shouted in a low voice.
"Outsiders?"
A thin-looking boy poked his head out from behind a wooden house.
He looked a little wary, his little eyes wide.
"I'm an adventurer. I passed by here and found a village, so I thought of coming here to buy some water and food."
Lisha said in a normal tone.
"Adventurer? What's that?"
The boy was confused, he didn't seem to understand what an adventurer was.
“It’s the kind of person who goes on adventures.”
Lisha’s explanation was simple, but easy to understand.
"Oh."
The boy didn't say anything, still staring at Lisha, but he didn't show any intention of leaving.
"Can I enter the village?"
Lisha asked the boy.
"no!"
The boy shook his head violently.
"Strangers are not allowed into the village!"
"Can you get me some water and food? I'm hungry and thirsty now, and I feel like I'm going to faint."
Lisha pretended to be weak.
"Okay, but you can't come in."
The boy said, shrinking back.
Because of the wooden house, Lisha couldn't see what the boy was doing, but she could hear the sound of water being pumped from the wooden bucket.
After a while, the boy came over with a bucket of water in his left hand and two pieces of black bread in his right hand.
"for you."
The boy put his things at the gate and showed no intention of leaving.
Lisha approached the village gate without a care in the world.
She found that the closer she got, the more frightened the boy became.
But even though his body was shaking, he showed no intention of leaving.
"Thank you, this is your reward."
Lisha said as she put the ten copper coins that she had held in her hand at some point on the ground, and at the same time took away the bucket of water and two pieces of black bread.
"Too much."
The boy looked at the copper coins on the ground and finally took only five.
In fact, the boy thought that two would be enough, after all, that was the price of two pieces of brown bread.
Water is not worth anything at all, and there are rivers nearby.
But the boy was worried that Lisha would not return the barrel after taking it, so he charged her three copper coins for the barrel.
Of course, the wooden barrel was not actually a valuable thing. It was just a barrel that the boy pieced together bit by bit. There were even big gaps between the wooden boards, so the water inside would flow out if left for too long.
"I'll give it all to you. The rest will be my payment for food and water tomorrow."
Lisha had no intention of taking it back.
After all, this thing is just a copper coin she created using the rules of dreams.
In fact, she could produce silver and gold coins, but in order not to scare the other party, Lisha finally decided to produce a few copper coins.
"The village chief won't let you live in the village."
The boy stared at Lisha warily.
"I'll stay the night in a nearby vacant lot."
Lisha said with a smile.
"Actually, I want to continue on my journey, but you see, it's getting late."
Lisha pointed to the sky while saying this.
The sky had become much darker at this time, and the sun was about to set completely.
"Ok?"
The boy looked up in confusion. When did it get dark?
He remembered that it seemed quite bright just now.
Never mind, maybe he didn't notice.
The boy didn't think much about it. He looked down at the five copper coins on the ground, hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to pick them up and put them away.
"I'll prepare water and food for you tomorrow."
"Great! Thank you so much~"
Lisha happily left the village gate.
Even though they were far away, she could still feel the boy looking at her.
That gaze disappeared only after Lisha entered the jungle.
Lisha randomly found a vacant space, and with a wave of her hand, a tent and a campfire suddenly appeared in front of her.
He took out the bucket of water and two pieces of hard black bread from the materialized space waist bag.
Chapter 374: Strange?
The water is just water. It is the well water that the boy drew. It is quite clean and the water quality seems to be good.
The black bread was genuine black bread, very hard. Lisha broke it a little and found that it was the worst kind of black bread, as hard as rock. Especially because it was mixed with a lot of sawdust, it tasted very bad and was very difficult to swallow. But if it was just for filling the stomach, then it was enough.
Lisha had no intention of eating the two pieces of black bread, and she didn't even take a sip of the water.
Saying I was hungry and thirsty was just an excuse.
This is a dream. Not to mention that Lisha can easily conjure up food and water, even if she was really hungry, Lisha would not eat this kind of food of unknown origin.
"But I haven't seen such black bread for a long time."
Lisha squeezed the black bread in her hand, which was hard enough to be used as a weapon.
There are actually many kinds of black bread.
The worst was the one she had in her hand. It was mixed with a lot of sawdust, which took up half of the whole black bread. Not only did it taste terrible, but it also had a sour, rotten wood smell. Someone even used this kind of black bread to grow mushrooms, and it was successful.
A slightly better option is black bread mixed with only a quarter of sawdust. This is considered a relatively normal food. Although eating too much can cause gastrointestinal problems, except for the bad taste, it tastes much better than the previous one.
The better black bread is made entirely of grains. Although it may contain a lot of husks, apart from its rough texture, the taste and nutrition are still good. This is generally the daily food of ordinary people.
The best is naturally the brown bread made entirely of grains. Except that the taste is a little worse and the texture is not as delicate, the difference between it and white bread is actually not that big. In fact, few people buy this kind of brown bread. After all, although the texture of the previous kind of brown bread is a little rough, the price is much cheaper than the best brown bread. This kind of brown bread is not suitable to buy.
As for white bread, it is impossible for a family to eat it every day without a certain amount of assets. Most people can occasionally taste the softness of white bread and the sweetness of jam, but no one will waste money on such a luxury.
With that money, I don’t know how many good brown breads I could buy.
