Strange World Survival Manual

"Dong dong dong..." There was a knock on the door, and at the same time a man's voice came: "Is Mr. Li here?"

At this moment, Li Si was washing rice in the backyard, and shouted to Cao Meng, who was practicing calligraphy in the hall: "Cao Meng, go and open the door."

After hearing this, Cao Meng wiped off the water stains on the table with his sleeves, then hurriedly walked to the door and opened it. He saw a middle-aged man in smart clothes outside, and he couldn't help shouting: "Uncle Robert, come here." Sir."

The young man standing outside was also an Orion hunter from Fengmen County. His name was Luo Ye. He often had contacts with his family, so Cao Meng naturally knew him.

When Luo Ye saw Cao Meng, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He looked at Cao Meng with dodgey eyes.

"Well, is Mr. Li at home?" Then Luo Ye ignored Cao Meng and looked towards the door.

"Oh, sir, he is here." Cao Meng was a little stunned. He felt that Father Robert was a little weird today.

"Brother Luo, what do you want from me?" Li Si wiped his still wet hands with a sweat towel and looked at Luo Ye with some confusion.

Luo Ye's lips twitched when he saw Li Si, then looked at Cao Meng aside, and hesitated: "It's not convenient to talk here, can we talk alone."

Seeing Luo Ye's attitude, Li Si's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately anticipated what would happen next.

So he smiled at Luo Ye and said, "Is it what I told you yesterday? I just want to talk to you about it."

Luo Ye was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes."

Seeing Luo Ye's reaction so quickly, Li Si breathed a sigh of relief and said to Cao Meng: "My dish is still missing some onions and garlic. Buy me some."

Cao Meng looked at the two of them, the suspicion in his eyes gradually disappeared, and then he responded: "Okay, sir."

After saying that, he went out.

"Did something happen to Brother Cao?" Seeing Cao Meng walking away, Li Si went straight to the point and led Luo Ye towards the study.

Seeing Li Si being so direct, Luo Ye got straight to the point and said, "Cao Qing is dead!"

Li Si paused when he heard what Luo Ye said. Although he had expected it before, he still felt a little unreal when he heard the news of Cao Qing's death.

Such a living person died like this.

"What about his body?" Li Si took Luo Ye into the study, poured him a cup of tea, and the two sat down.

Luo Ye took a sip of tea and suddenly his agitated mood calmed down a lot. When he heard Li Si's question, he hesitated and said, "The body is still on the mountain."

"On the mountain?" Li Si frowned and said hesitantly: "On the mountain, why don't you bring it back?"

"I can't take it with me." Luo Ye sighed, and continued: "The hunter who heard the news of Cao Qing's death said that his body was hung by the demon tiger on a big tree on the edge of the cliff. The demon tiger was still in the body. Lingering nearby. None of us dare go near."

"It's a pity that my brother died without a chance to survive." After saying this, Luo Ye's eyes turned red.

Hearing what Luo Ye said, Li Si felt sad. Such a man died like this, and he couldn't even bring his body back, leaving it exposed in the wilderness.

At the same time, I am also worried about Cao Meng. Now that his last relative is gone, what will he do in the future?

While getting along with Cao Meng, he had already fallen in love with this child. He was very sensible and made him feel like he was seeing his old self.

"I am here to take Cao Meng to my home this time. My family is not very wealthy, but it is still possible to raise one more person. I have no children, and I will raise him as my biological child in the future." Luo Ye said seriously. Looking at Li Si, it was obvious that he was serious.

"Let this matter go for now. Don't talk to Cao Meng recently." Li Si took a sip of tea, thought for a while and said, "I'm going to get Brother Cao's body back."

"Li Xianggong, you must not do it." Hearing what Li Si said, Luo Ye became a little anxious and quickly advised: "The demon tiger has been cultivated into a spirit and is no longer something ordinary people can deal with. It is lingering around Cao Qing's body. Just wait for us to pass.”

"Although I heard, Mr. Li, that you have the means to conquer demons, why risk it for his body?"

"After all, people are dead, we people still have to live well." Luo Ye kept persuading, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.

"I like this kid Cao Meng very much." Li Si took a sip of tea and sighed: "I will not let his father's body hang on the cliff and be exposed in the wilderness."

Luo Ye wanted to persuade, but Li Si stretched out his hand to stop him from continuing, and said seriously: "I have already made my decision, you don't need to persuade me."

"I have to make some preparations today. Can you tell me how to go tomorrow?" Li Si looked at Luo Ye and asked.

Seeing that Li Si could not be persuaded, Luo Ye said helplessly: "I will take you there tomorrow."

"Thank you, Brother Luo." Li Si said with a smile.

Luo Ye sighed, then showed a worried look and asked: "What about that kid Cao Meng..."

"We'd better not tell him." Li Si paused slightly, thinking that he would go into the mountains during this period and would not be able to take care of him, so he said, "After lunch today, let him go to your house by himself."

At the same time, he seemed to have thought of something, groped around in his sleeves, took out some broken silver and handed it to Luo Ye, saying, "Take this silver."

"How...how can this be done?" When Luo Ye saw Li Si giving him money, he immediately refused. Although his family was not wealthy, he did not want to take Li Si's money in vain.

Seeing his refusal, Li Si nodded secretly.

At the same time, he forced the money into Luo Ye's hands and said with a smile: "I can be considered Cao Meng's teacher after all. Let me help my student head office."

Luo Ye wanted to refuse, but Li Si glared at him and said, "What I gave to him is not for you. Why are you refusing?"

Seeing Li Si like this, Luo Ye had no choice but to take the money and sighed: "Then I will thank you for my dead brother."

Having said that, the two made an appointment to set off tomorrow, and Li Si sent Luo Ye away.

At this time, Cao Meng, who bought onions, ginger and garlic, came back.

"Sir, what did Uncle Robert say to you?" Cao Meng asked nervously when he saw Li Si.

"It's nothing." Li Si smiled and then said: "Have I not been practicing martial arts recently? I need some medicinal materials as an aid. I asked him yesterday and he came to give me a reply today."

He had already agreed with Luo Ye not to tell Cao Meng about this during this period, and he had already found a reason.

"Oh." Cao Meng breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Did Uncle Robert tell me anything about my father?"

"Yes." Li Si nodded affirmatively, and then said: "Your uncle said that your father came back the day before yesterday, but he replenished what he needed and hurried into the mountains."

Seeing what Li Si said, Cao Meng was immediately relieved and sighed, "I really hope nothing will happen to my dad."

"Your father has his own destiny, and he will definitely be fine." A look of pity flashed in Li Si's eyes, but he immediately returned to normal.

"Come on, let's go cook." Li Si interrupted Cao Meng's thinking and reminded him.

"Okay, sir." Cao Meng responded.

Then the two of them went to make lunch. After making lunch, they put the dishes on the dining table and started eating.

During the meal, Li Si said to Cao Meng, "I'm going out for a few days this time. You go to your Uncle Robert's house in the afternoon, and you'll stay at his house from now on. There will be people taking care of you there."

Hearing what Li Si said, Cao Meng was startled, with a trace of reluctance in his eyes, but he still responded sensibly: "Okay, I will listen to you sir."

"Also." Li Si seemed to have thought of something and continued to order: "Go and tell Yu Hu and the others in the afternoon that you won't come here from today on. Wait until I come back."

"Yes, yes sir."
