As the saying goes: It’s easy to go up the mountain, but hard to go down!
It took some effort to get down to the foot of the mountain, but fortunately the mountain was not high and it was only noon when we reached the bottom.
The foot of the mountain is the same as the mountain. It is full of rocks. It cannot be said that there is no grass growing, but there is not much grass. After turning over a few stones, Xiao Han originally thought about catching a few scorpions to replenish his weak body, but he did not know whether it was the poor environment or time.
No, there isn't even a watermelon worm under the stone.
This was a bit disappointing. As soon as I straightened my back, I heard something cooing on the empty grass mat in front of the mountain. The voice was very familiar. Xiao Han's eyes lit up when he heard it, and the horse ran into the meadow without even thinking about it.
.
"Drink! There's another dish for lunch!"
The grass here is a bit high, reaching up to the knees, but it doesn't matter. I quietly greeted Xiaodong Lunzi, and the two of them immediately understood each other. They handed the reins to Zhang Qiang and started to outflank the place where the noise was made.
.
"Huh..." Lunzi bent over and called out in the grass. He didn't see anything, but a piece of mud hit him next to him, almost startling him.
"Who? What are you doing? You scared me to death!" The idiot slapped his chest and turned around to shout.
Lao Qiu laughed from behind: "You idiot, are you driving a donkey?"
"You want to take care of it? I've never chased chickens..."
Xiaodong heard what was happening here on the other side. As soon as he looked up, he saw a colorful and beautiful object flying forward.
"Pheasant!" Xiao Han saw this thing flying forward, shouted, and rushed forward. Naturally, Xiaodong and Lengzi were not willing to lag behind, and did not bother to scold Lao Qiu, and followed Xiao Han closely.
A wild run.
Lao Qiu was riding a horse from a distance behind. He was watching the three teenagers chasing the pheasant like crazy. He almost couldn't breathe with laughter. The one with two legs wanted to chase the one with two wings. It was just a daydream...
Sure enough, after running wildly for a while, the three brothers felt like stars were in their eyes and their legs were shaking. The pheasant that was supposed to be cooked was still two or three feet in front of them, looking at it through the sparse grass with their heads tilted.
Three brothers in distress...
"Huh... Lord Hou, I... I can't run anymore..." The fool gasped for air and sat down on the grass. He didn't want to eat chicken anymore, so he picked up the water bag he brought with him and put it in his mouth.
Watering...
Xiao Han was also panting heavily, hunched over, with his hands on his knees, looking at the pheasant hatefully, this thing is so hateful, it will run if you run, it will stop if you stop, forever
Not far in front of you, as if I'm teasing you...
"Ma Dan, let's stop arresting you. When my army arrives, I will pull out all your grass and burn your nest!"
Xiaodong, who had not wanted to run away for a long time, heard that Xiao Han had given up and lay down on the ground to take a rest...
It was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I didn’t feel sad anymore when the sun was shining on my face. After finally catching my breath, the three of them helped each other and walked back. The damn pheasant was still following them, cooing from time to time.
After a few screams, the three of them were upset. When Xiao Han got angry, he couldn't help but rush back to chase after him. Xiaodong, the fool, looked at each other with a bitter face and had to catch up quickly. Mr. Hou had never seen a pheasant in his life.
Bar……
Not to mention, Xiao Han had seen the pheasant on TV, but he had never seen it with his own eyes alive... Finally, after chasing the pheasant on an ancient road, the three of them gave up completely, lying on the roadside and beating them to death.
Stop moving and let that damn chicken coo on the ancient road!
The soil on the ancient road was a bit hard. Xiaodong raised his head, looked around, and weakly said to Xiao Han next to him: "Master Marquis... where are we? Did we get lost..."
Xiao Han closed his eyes, feeling his chest burning, and replied angrily: "It's a shame to run, we can only run three miles at most. Hey, I'm exhausted. When I was in school, I ran a marathon much farther than this.
Not so tired!”
"Marathon?" The idiot turned over with great effort, came over and asked, "What is it, a dish made of horse meat?"
"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat! If you want to eat meat, go and catch this chicken!"
"Uh...I can't run away from it..."
"If you can't run away, then you can't throw stones at him?!" Xiaodong was so angry that the idiot laughed and gave him a random idea.
But when the fool heard it, it made sense. Since he couldn't run away, why not hit him with stones?
After he stood up, he picked out a stone from the roadside and was about to throw it at it.
The stone was thrown, but something was faster than the stone...
An arrow flew over the heads of several people like lightning, and shot towards the pheasant who was performing the golden rooster independence performance.
Before the poor pheasant could quickly lower its legs, the arrow penetrated its body directly. It flopped on the ground several times, and it looked like it was going to die.
"Well, the chicken is finally dead!"
The fool looked at it and lay down again. He didn't even have the strength to pick it up.
Lao Qiu and Zhang Qiang Shi Ran emerged from the grass on horseback. Zhang Qiang looked down at the three people who were like dead dogs, and couldn't help but laugh: "Tsk, tsk, tsk... I'm really strong, get up and keep running~"
Xiao Han gave Zhang Qiang a weak look, forced himself to sit up straight, and said to him: "You two are so boring. We are having fun in the countryside, catching fish, catching shrimps, and chasing rabbits. It's so poetic. It would be better for you to knock him down with one arrow, like
It’s like missing a chicken!”
Hearing Xiao Han forcefully try to find excuses for himself, Zhang Qiang said with a smile: "Okay, you don't need it, I do. Lao Qiu and I will drink this chicken, and you can eat the biscuits we brought."
"How dare you two!"
The three of them stared angrily!
"Hahahaha..." Lao Qiu and Zhang Qiang laughed loudly, causing many foraging birds to hover in the air.
Maybe in the open land, people's hearts are somewhat heroic, or maybe they were influenced by Xiao Han. Throwing away the troublesome things, I felt that I began to sublimate.
Now that we have the chicken, how to cook it is a question. Due to the charred fish incident last time, Xiaodong and Lengzi finally managed to persuade Xiao Han to stop. If they roast it too, the result is probably that this hateful and pitiful chicken will be eaten.
Free cremation…
When going out, no one will bring an iron pot with them, so the desire to drink chicken soup is unsatisfied.
Look at this wilderness, there is no one home, five people are starting to worry around a fat chicken.
"How about roasting it? Be careful this time..." Zhang Qiang tugged at the feathers of the chicken, feeling that if he kept waiting, the chicken would stink...
"I think it's OK!" Xiao Han responded, stood up, and the yellow mud on his body fell down. He slapped it impatiently a few times, and the yellow mud stuck to one hand. Looking at the mud on his hand, Xiao Han
The eyes slowly light up!
"Yes!" Xiao Han shouted, almost frightening Zhang Qiang who was turning over the pheasant and fell into the mud!
"What's the matter?" Several people gathered around and asked.
Xiao Han rubbed the mud in his hands, his eyes brightened up, and he said mysteriously: "Why did I forget about the beggar's chicken? I have wanted to eat it since I was a child, but I didn't expect that today the right time, the right place and the right people are here, and I can finally realize my childhood dream.
Got it!"
(I really wish I could go back to my childhood, where I could catch grasshoppers, chase pheasants, and steal sweet potatoes. Such happy days. Unfortunately, I can never go back. This is just a tribute to our lost youth.)
