Li Feng was afraid of hurting the surrounding trees, so he specially found a bluestone slab and lit a fire on the bluestone slab. After a while, the fire started to burn. Li Feng rubbed his hands. It was a bit colder outside than in the cave. Today
Winter is extremely cold, and Li Feng feels that the temperature on the mountain may have already dropped below zero at this time. In normal years, freezing is very rare in Lijiagang, but it has happened several times this year. Rainfall was quite common in previous years, but this year there was less.
No wonder the old people are worried about heavy snowfall. Snow in the plains heralds a good harvest. In the mountains, especially around Lijiagang, most people's source of income is moso bamboo. If there is a heavy snowfall, their income will not be lost for a year, but for several years.
"It's so cold." Li Feng got some fish and shrimp, stuck them on a tree stick, put some seasoning on them, and planned to bake some fish pads to fill his stomach. He was very tired from walking all the way, and now he was really hungry. There were only owl meat balls around him.
There are also little mynahs and little Baba. One of the two little guys is squatting at Li Feng's feet, rubbing Li Feng's trouser legs and staring at the fish and shrimp in Li Feng's hand. The other is hovering above Li Feng's head, not taking his eyes off the food. Two little greedy birds
, suddenly the little tiger cat came out of the small hole dug by Li Feng, smelled the scent, ran to Li Feng, and rubbed Li Feng to please him. Meow, meow, kept meowing, as if he really thought he was a grown-up tiger cub.
A similar kitten came. Li Feng was very happy, he just thought, this guy came running.
"Okay, stop making trouble, just stay still, I have already prepared your portion for you." Li Feng couldn't concentrate on grilling the fish because there were two little things at his feet, and one of the small white strips was burnt. Li Feng took it casually
I dropped it down and threw it away. I had been staring at the little tiger cat for a long time. If there was no reaction from the little tiger cat, it already flew to the branch nearby. I proudly said to the little tiger cat, "You stupid bird." The little tiger cat is not a vegetarian little dragon girl, not at all.
He was so polite, he quickly jumped up the tree and pounced on the little Baba. "Dead, dead, the wolf is coming." After a while of birds flying and cats jumping, it was Li Feng who finally calmed down the fight with a small crucian carp.
"You're still a good little meat ball." Li Feng touched the little owl at his feet that was following him. It was so cute. Who said an owl was ominous? The little meat ball was very good, with a hint of nobility in its light yellow fluff.
Li Feng got a half-cooked crucian carp and put it at his feet. The little guy likes to eat such medium-ripe crucian carp. The meat is tender and delicious, with a hint of sweetness. He cheered and shook his little wings, happily fighting against the big crucian carp. Li Feng himself
I grilled three chopstick-long crucian carp. The crucian carp in the space is much more delicious than in the cave. Ordinary people must think it is just a little more delicious, but Li Feng, the space-eating fish, is definitely more sensitive to distinguishing fish meat than anyone else.
Li Feng gnawed the big crucian carp and waited for Little Dragon Girl to come back. After eating the whole piece, Little Dragon Girl showed her round head and looked at Li Feng eagerly. Little Dragon Girl's body was so big that she mostly hibernated when she had nothing to do in the winter. She would go up and down trees to eat in her belly.
The food is almost digested. I feel hungry now. Li Feng smiled bitterly. Why did he find a big belly again? Girls eat so much, so they are not afraid of gaining weight.
Li Feng reached out and thought about taking the bottle from Xiao Longnu's mouth, but Xiao Longnu shook her big head and refused to give it to him. "Hey, Xiao Longnu is learning to be smart." Li Feng made a pile of corn and cucumbers, and Xiao Longnu
His big eyes showed a trace of joy, and he spit out the bottle in his mouth. Li Feng was speechless. What a pure little dragon girl, she learned so much in a short time. Li Feng opened the bottle while looking at the little dragon girl happily eating corn and cucumbers.
Taking a look, Lin Ying and the others had received their own message.
Li Feng breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had to spend the night up there tonight. He would cook breakfast for everyone tomorrow morning. Xiao Longnu finished eating the corn and cucumbers piled on the floor, closed her big eyes, rubbed herself and lay motionless.
Li Feng was about to get another fish to eat. When he looked back, he was stunned. He had only one of his three crucian carp left. "That's not right. After eating one of the three, there are two left." Li Feng looked at it.
Little Baba is wrong, this little thing only likes to eat shrimps and white strips, and the little owl only likes to eat half-cooked ones. As for the little tiger cat, Li Feng glanced at it, it couldn't be that this little guy ate it secretly. Li Feng shook his head, forget it.
Eat, eat, eat, it's not good to eat too much at night.
"That's not right. How could the little tiger cat be taken away with the tree stick? Who is out? Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." Xiao Lu and Xiao Qing on Li Feng's wrist became alert for a moment, and Li Feng and Xiao Qing followed.
Li Feng lowered his trouser legs to the ground, and after a while Li Feng determined the opponent's position.
"You, don't mess around, I have a gun." A boy who was only fifteen or sixteen years old stood up in the bushes more than ten meters away. Li Feng did not expect that the man who stole his own grilled fish turned out to be a half-year-old boy.
It's just that the thing in this little guy's hand made Li Feng nervous. This was a shotgun. If it hit him from a distance of more than ten meters, he would be dead. Li Feng looked at the boy with trembling hands, and his face
still.
"Haha, look, you have a gun in your hand. I don't have anything. Why are you messing around? By the way, are you hungry? I'll give you this fish too." Li Feng looked at his messy hair and the shotgun in his hand.
The boy guessed that he might have lost his way because of a patrol he encountered while poaching in the mountains.
"Hey, it's you." The boy came closer and was a little surprised, but Li Feng was a little confused. He had never seen this child before. "Do you know me? Are you Li Zuizi?" Li Feng thought that this was the only possibility.
Sure enough, the boy nodded. "Yes, I saw you hiding in the bushes last time. Why did you let me go? I know you saw me." Li Feng was a little dumbfounded now. He didn't want to jump over the wall in a hurry.
I didn't push too hard, and I didn't expect it would cause trouble for today.
"Haha, I know it's not easy for everyone. Poaching is also hard work for most of the night. Besides, it's a fellow villager, so why do you have to be so good at it?" Li Fengxin said, I didn't want to stand out at that time, and you had dozens of sticks in your hand.
A steel ball, who dares.
"Thank you, there's nothing I can do about it." The boy said and put away the shotgun in his hand. Li Feng breathed a sigh of relief and wondered if he should let Xiao Qing take down the young poacher directly. But after thinking about it, he forgot about it.
, is still a child, and it took me a while to figure it out for myself. This child is not a second-rate or a bastard. Maybe he really has something to hide. People in the mountains hunt for a living, relying on the mountains to eat and the water to eat. There is no way around this.
"Sit down, you should eat this fish too. Why haven't you eaten?" Last night, he captured the poachers. Didn't this child go without eating for a whole day? Li Feng couldn't believe it.
A wild rabbit and pheasant are enough to eat.
"Well, I was afraid last night. I ran all night and didn't dare to stop. I ran until I couldn't run anymore. I sat for a while and then ran again. I haven't eaten until now. I don't dare to shoot anymore because I'm afraid of you.
Come here." The boy said while eating the grilled fish, praising how delicious it was from time to time.
"Haha, let's talk after eating. Don't get stuck with fish bones." Li Feng was not in a hurry. At this moment, Li Feng was sure that this child was absolutely different from that group of poachers, but he just didn't know why the boy took the risk to go into the mountains to hunt.
Just waiting for the boy to finish the crucian carp in his hand, Li Feng asked.
"Are you still hungry? Why don't I grill you two more." Li Feng still has a few fish on sticks that are not grilled. Li Feng plans to eat these when the little owl gets hungry, and so does this little meat ball.
With a big belly, he had to eat at least two or three crucian carp a night. "No, thank you." The boy wiped his mouth, a little shy.
"Haha, drink some water. I don't think you are poaching for money. You don't know that this is a crime. My family knows it, so don't worry." Li Feng had a good impression of the child in front of him and added some firewood.
, the fire is brighter and warmer. This child's clothes are thin enough, so he dares to go into the mountains like this.
"I know, but, but I, I have no money. I only have my mother at home, and my mother is sick. I want to make money to take my mother to a big hospital for treatment, but I don't know anything. I am so stupid that I can even hit a rabbit.
Not even there." This boy's surname is Zhao, Zhao Xiaogang, from Zhaojiabao, which is more than 20 miles away from Lijiagang and belongs to Zhangkouzi Town.
"So that's how it is." Zhao Xiaogang's father died in a coal mine accident when he was young. His grandparents passed away one after another due to grief. Zhao Xiaogang lived with his mother. The mother and son were lonely, but Zhao Xiaogang's mother was a caring person who knew how to farm the land.
There was no future. Under everyone's doubts and scrutiny, one person sent Zhao Xiao to junior high school and high school, and saw that his son was expected to go to college. A minor illness became a minor illness because it took too long.
He became seriously ill and eventually died. The family had no money to support Zhao Xiaogang's education. At this time, his mother was critically ill and Zhao Xiaogang grew up. Mother and son depended on each other for more than ten years. In order to treat his mother's illness, Zhao Xiaogang went to his uncle who had not seen him for a long time.
The family was open to talk, but the two uncles were very indifferent to Zhao Xiaogang's mother. They always believed that Zhao Xiaogang's father died because of his mother, and that the death of the two old people was caused by this ominous woman.
"Because of this, you came to the mountains to hunt." Li Feng sympathized with the child a little, and more admired the rural women. It is good to go to junior high school in mountain villages, and most of them go out to make a living after elementary school. Especially Zhangkouzi is better than Li
We are very poor, the roads in the mountains have not yet been built, there is little land and many people, and our family's income is only three to four thousand a year. It is quite difficult for a large family to support a high school student, let alone a woman, and there is no business.
It’s really difficult to collect mountain products and herbs with only one hand.
"Well, I can't let my mother go like this. I want her to watch her son go to college and let the village make gossips. I want my mother to live a good life in the future." The boy spoke with tears in his eyes, and Li Feng sighed secretly.
Suddenly, a minor illness caused such a big deal. In the mountains, transportation is not only inconvenient, but medical conditions are also limited. At least there is no health center in the three villages of Lijiagang, Likouzi, and Wangzhuangzi. To see a doctor, you have to go to the town. Fortunately, the roads are not bad.
