Chapter forty-seven disheartened
After a moment of stammering, Li Yu frowned and asked, "How much more do we have to eat?"
"There are more than a hundred kilograms left. After today, we may not have eaten tomorrow," Liu Shuigen replied.
"Why is there almost no food?" Li Yu murmured.
He has not been involved in cooking for the past ten days. Everyone eats together when they are eating, and ignores this issue at all.
Liu Shuigen smiled bitterly and said, "We are over 100 people here. We eat dry meals and there is no oil or water. If we eat too much, we will consume more food. If Aunt Wang, who was cooking just now, I wouldn't have realized this problem."
Nodded, Li Yu stood up, paced back and forth and said in a deep voice: "If it really doesn't work, I'm afraid I can only take the risk of going to the town to find food. I remember there are several grain shops in the town, and a large amount of grain should be found in those places!"
"No, the grain shops are all on both sides of the street near the center of the town. There are many monsters in those places. Isn't it a sheep entering the tiger's mouth?" Liu Shuigen shook his head and said in horror.
Li Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Then you can't stay here just because you're afraid of monsters and wait to starve to death, right?"
"This..." Liu Shuigen didn't know how to answer.
The food problem really cannot be delayed. The more you delay it to the end, the bigger the problem. Since it was mentioned, Li Yu attached great importance to it.
After thinking about it, Li Yu said: "The food rations for more than one hundred people cannot be solved by anyone alone, and this problem is imminent. In this way, Uncle Liu, please inform the people with weapons, and everyone gathers together to discuss how to deal with this problem."
"Okay, I'll go now," Liu Shuigen nodded and turned around and left.
Liu Shuigen went to inform the people, and soon all those who possessed the weapons gathered in the yard.
If it is not counted as Li Yu and Li Dashu, there are a total of 33 people with weapons, 23 of which are equipped with standard long swords for constables, and the other ten are weapons of bows and arrows.
Thanks to the weapons found in the warehouse that day, otherwise the number of people would not be so large.
When everyone was here, the question was also said to be open. The food was about to be finished, so everyone discussed what to do.
Faced with this problem, everyone looked at each other, some were confused, some were panicked, and some were at a loss.
People who have never been hungry will never understand the taste of hunger, it is really worse than death.
Seeing that everyone was in a state of silence, Li Yu said, "If you don't have food, you will go hungry. The rescue of the county is far away. I'm afraid we will never wait for them to come when we starve to death, so we must find a way to get food."
"This is the case, but we can't think of a solution for a while. Why don't Xiaoyu make an idea?" Someone whispered in the silent and depressing atmosphere.
The others nodded and looked at Li Yu without saying anything.
They are all adults, but they want Li Yu to make a decision. They cannot say that they are evading the problem. They can only say that they are used to the days when Li Yu is in charge during this period.
Li Yu didn't think anything was wrong and said, "I think so. Everyone can't wait to die of starvation, so some of us should stand up and go to the town outside to find food. What do you think?"
"We all know the truth, but once we go to the town to find food, what should we do when we encounter monsters?" someone said with a look of horror.
They have encountered monsters and know that they are terrible and do not want to face them again if there is no need to die.
"When you encounter a monster, you can kill it. If there are too many things that cannot be killed, you can only run away." Li Yu replied. As for what to do if he can't escape, he didn't mention it, it was no different from being dead.
Someone couldn't believe Li Yu's answer: "Kill monsters? Just us? How is that possible!"
"Why is it impossible? Before coming here, Li Yu and I killed many monsters. One of them was more than ten times stronger than ordinary monsters. We were killed by us." Li Dashu from the side looked at the speaker and spoke, his tone of contempt.
Before he and Li Yu came here, they killed some monsters, but they were all killed by Li Yu, and he didn't have anything to do with him. Now he didn't blush at all when he said this.
As soon as these words were spoken, people didn't doubt the fact that Li Yu and the others killed monsters, but they just didn't have the courage or courage to face monsters at all.
"Uncles and uncles, I also know that monsters are terrible, but we can't sit here and wait for death, right? No matter how one dies, why not fight? Besides, monsters are not as terrible as you think. They will die if they cut their heads. So many of us have weapons. When we encounter sporadic monsters, we can kill them. Be careful not to provoke a large group of monsters at all, they should be able to find food," Li Yu said to them.
He doesn't understand so many great principles and has no bold words to inspire people. Li Yu is just simply presenting facts and reasoning.
However, although the truth is very clear, no one still speaks. The terror of monsters has been rooted in their souls. If possible, no one is willing to face the terrible monster.
No one spoke, and even avoided his own gaze. Faced with such a situation, Li Yu's originally enthusiastic heart became colder a little bit. He felt that he should go find something to eat if he had no food, even if he took some risks, but then he realized that he thought about it this way, others would not think so.
I was a little disappointed, and I could even say that I was discouraged. These people usually wanted to blow their skin when chatting, but when they really encountered problems, they were all timid.
Li Yu also understood their mood. After all, this is a matter of life and death. It is absolutely right to be cautious. After all, there are only a few people who get on with a knife when they are hot.
"Do you want to find something to eat? I'll give you a good word. What's the point of doing it like this?" Li Dashu, who was straightforward, said impatiently.
Faced with Li Dashu's urging, people remained silent. If there was no need, no one would take the initiative to seek death.
Seeing this, Li Yu sighed, nodded and smiled bitterly: "Since that's the case, then that's it."
After saying this, Li Yu turned around and walked away with some fatigue, not because he was tired of himself, but because he was tired of his heart.
Li Dashu glanced at the silent people, followed Li Yu's footsteps and asked, "What's that like?"
"What else can it be done? They dare not face monsters and would rather wait for death here starvation. I don't want to die. If it really doesn't work, we can only leave here and go out alone to find food," Li Yu replied.
Scratching his head, Li Dashu said: "That doesn't have to leave here. We can live here if we find something to eat."
"To put it lightly, when everyone is hungry, we have something to eat. Not to mention whether we can eat, how do you think we get along with them at that time? And how big and capable we are, we can't get the food to support so many people. Even if we can get it, why do we do this? They are not our parents, so we can only leave." Li Yu shook his head and said...
