But after thinking about it, I decided to forget it first. I took a look at the time and saw that they went out at half past six in the morning. It was only a little after ten o'clock now, and there was still most of the day. If you have gained something so early, you don't need to point to it. Went deep into the mountains.
Yes, don't be in a hurry, let's talk about it first.
So she returned the same way and waited for Xu Yansheng.
In fact, Xu Yansheng didn't chase him very far. The mountains were densely covered with trees and it was difficult to walk. He chased him for a few dozen meters and then stopped because he couldn't catch up.
As soon as the two of them met, it turned out that no one had gained anything. Come on, let's move on.
As he was walking, Xu Yansheng suddenly laughed out loud. He felt that he was so stupid for chasing the deer with his knife just now!
Ning Yue obviously understood what he was laughing at, and she laughed too, "When we go down the mountain, come over and take a look, maybe we will gain something else!"
Xu Yansheng suspected that the pheasant in his basket might be their only harvest today.
Large prey cannot be hunted by just one or two people with a machete. Of course, the same goes for small prey, because they escape too fast and cannot be caught at all. After walking for another half an hour, we reached a small hillside. The trees here are relatively sparse. At a glance, you can see that there are clumps of monkey leg vegetables on the entire hillside.
Monkey's leg is also a type of bracken. In some places, it is also called seaweed or monkey's leg because its stems are covered with brown hairs and grows on fertile hillsides or along rivers.
"Now we have a second harvest. Let's fry monkey legs for dinner tonight."
Xu Yansheng has actually eaten bracken twice since he came here. It can be eaten cold or stir-fried. It tastes really good. The two of them didn't talk. Maoyao started to pinch wild vegetables. Ning Yue's basket came into use, and soon the wild vegetables were picked up. I picked half of the basket.
Near the middle of the sun, all the monkey leg vegetables that could be seen had been pinched by the two of them.
Ning Yue picked a stone and sat down. She took out the water and dry food she brought from home in the morning, fried golden green onion pancakes, pickled pickles at home, washed them to make them less salty, and added shredded green onions, sesame oil, a little vinegar and Chili oil, it tastes good and you can’t choose.
He took out two pairs of chopsticks and handed them to Xu Yansheng, "Eat, I baked eight cakes, you can eat more so you don't have to carry them back again."
The green onion pancake was cut into small pieces, which was very convenient to eat with chopsticks. After walking for such a long time, Xu Yansheng was indeed a little hungry, so he ate the pancake a bit quickly.
"Looking at the way you eat, you really don't look like a young master from the capital."
Xu Yansheng swallowed the cake in his mouth and corrected her: "I am not a young master to begin with!"
Ning Yue was stunned for a moment, and then she felt that she had indeed used the wrong words just now. In this era, you can't say anything about a young master.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yansheng said again, "I can barely be considered a young master from the capital."
Ning Yue: "This joke is really not funny at all."
Xu Yansheng chuckled lightly, finished the cake quickly, took another sip of water, and said, "You said we were both going to get married, but I haven't told you about my family's situation yet."
Ning Yue straightened her expression, "Then let's talk now."
"Well, thinking about it, there seems to be nothing to say. I grew up in a courtyard, and there are just these people in my family: my grandfather, my parents, my brothers and sisters, and me.
Grandpa is a soldier and usually looks serious. He likes to drink tea, play chess and read newspapers. He hates little girls who cry all day long.
My grandma is a very powerful woman. She once accompanied my grandpa on the battlefield, killed Japanese soldiers, and even took a bullet for him. It was also because of being shot that time that my grandma’s health was not very good. She was only in her forties. Gone.
My father and my mother are usually very busy. My father often sleeps in the office when he is busy.
My eldest brother is in the army and is now the battalion commander. I called home a few days ago and heard from my grandfather that my brother seems to be in love with someone, but he hasn’t met his parents yet. I don’t know what’s going on with the girl.
My sister has been married a long time ago, and my nephew is three years old this year. He is married to the He family in Beijing, so he is a well-matched family, right?
My sister and my brother-in-law have a pretty good relationship, well, my brother-in-law is also a soldier."
"I'm sure your brother is looking for a good partner. Why are you so reluctant to come to my house to propose marriage?"
Xu Yansheng asked this question because she was a good match as she just said, but he didn't answer because even he didn't know what he was thinking about.
After resting for a while, Ning Yue packed up her things, and the two of them continued walking into the mountains.
The light in the mountains was getting darker and darker. As they walked, a beast roar suddenly came from the forest. The dead pheasant that had been in Xu Yansheng's backpack was frightened by the sound and suddenly became restless. Ning Yue immediately became alert. He took stock of the surrounding situation.
"Did we go too far and enter the inner area of Mangshan without knowing it?" Xu Yansheng felt that something was wrong with the surrounding situation.
Looking around, Ning Yue made a quick decision, "No way, I'm so lucky. Climb the tree first, then the tallest tree."
She definitely meant what she said. Xu Yansheng thought she was being sarcastic, but he didn't think too much about it. He walked towards the tree first. The fir tree Ning Yue chose was fifty or sixty meters high. It was tall and thick. Looking at it, The tree must be a hundred years old. Before Xu Yansheng climbed up the tree, he didn't forget to ask Ning Yue, "Can you climb trees?"
"Yes, hurry up, don't waste time, and take off the backpack."
Xu Yansheng quickly took off the basket and threw it aside. Then he hugged the big tree and climbed up the tree with both feet. He climbed up in a few clicks. Ning Yue followed him and climbed up the same tree. As soon as the two of them stood still on the tree branch, there was a roar of leopards in the forest, and then there was the sound of running like hammers on the ground. A grizzly bear fled very fast, but behind it were two leopards, one large and one small.
The little leopard was stained with blood and was obviously injured. The big leopard was on the verge of a rage. When it caught up with the grizzly bear, it swooped down. The leopard and the bear soon hit each other, and the injured little leopard also He scratched the grizzly bear's paw. After a while, both the bear and the leopard were panting. It was obvious that their injuries were not serious.
Xu Yansheng stepped on the branch and hugged the trunk of the tree and looked at it without daring to say a word. However, Ning Yue became more and more excited as she watched. She even cheered for the two leopards and the bear in her heart: "Fight, fight, keep fighting, it's best." If all three are defeated, I will be able to make a profit."
The three animals on the ground seemed to have heard her thoughts. They separated and took a few breaths before fighting together again. They started fighting without mercy. After about a quarter of an hour, all three animals finally collapsed on the ground.
Xu Yansheng then asked Ning Yue in a low voice: "What should we do now?"
