() Jiang Yuan did not leave. She took a half step back, holding the five-cell military flashlight firmly in her hand, and firmly illuminated the figures of the two jackals.
At this time, there was a "bang" beside him, and Xu Wei fired another shot. This time the bullet only hit the tail of a jackal.
This shot obviously angered the jackal inside. It jumped up fiercely with the other one and rushed towards Xu Wei.
When the other two jackals saw that Lu Yang was the only figure in front of them, they immediately jumped up together.
When dealing with prey that is taller than itself, jackals like to use their good jumping power to bite the prey's neck.
Lu Yang naturally knew this. Taking this opportunity, the hand crossbow he held in his right hand suddenly fired. The crossbow arrow made of alloy steel easily shot into the belly of the jackal on the right at a distance of several meters.
But after all, this thing is a cold weapon with limited power. The jackal was knocked to the ground, but it was still not dead. It rolled around and struggled to come over.
Lu Yang didn't have time to deal with it. He used the crossbow in his right hand as a glove, turned around with a side step, and punched the jackal on the left.
After the fist hit, Lu Yang secretly screamed that it was bad. After all, the body of a fifteen-year-old was different from that of a twenty-five-year-old. His strength was far less than he thought.
The jackal, which weighed more than 20 kilograms and rushed at full speed, was not completely knocked away by this punch. Instead, it tilted according to its inertia. Although it did not bite Lu Yang's neck, its claws also moved from his left side.
The shoulder slipped.
Lu Yang suddenly groaned, and there was a thin blood mark on his left shoulder.
This was not the time to feel pain. Lu Yang suddenly became anxious when he thought that Jiang Yuan was still around. He kicked away the jackal that was staggeringly running towards him after being hit by a crossbow arrow, and faced the other jackal that was shot by him.
The jackal in the fist is trying to rush over.
At this time, "Woof! Woof!" two dogs barked, and a figure rushed over from the night. It was Lao Shi's hunting dog. It rushed forward and entangled with the jackal that had already stood up.
Lu Yang felt relieved, thinking of Xu Wei next to him, and immediately looked over. Jiang Yuan seemed to have the same idea as him, and she shone her flashlight.
Xu Wei's skills are naturally much better than Lu Yang's. Although his shoulder injury has not healed yet, he is wielding a rifle in his hand, with agile movements and nimble steps, and can fight two jackals alone.
At this time, there was already a jackal corpse lying on the ground with the barrel of a rifle stuck in it. Xu Wei lay on the ground, pressing the other jackal's neck with one hand, took out a dagger from his trouser leg and stabbed it in hard.
After killing the jackal, Xu Wei quickly stood up and walked towards Lu Yang and Jiang Yuan. He saw the hunting dog and a jackal entangled on the ground, and the other jackal was lying on the ground twitching. It was obvious that he was not alive, so he put down
Heartbroken.
Xu Wei first went up and gave the living jackal a dagger, and then walked to Lu Yang and Jiang Yuan.
"What a boy!" Xu Wei, who had always been taciturn, punched Lu Yang on the shoulder and said a rare compliment: "You're very brave!"
Lu Yang also wanted to laugh, but he really couldn't.
Because Xu Wei's punch just happened to pull the wound on his left arm. He didn't feel anything at first, but now that it was safe, he suddenly felt a burning pain.
Although Jiang Yuan was beside him, Lu Yang managed not to make a sound, but he still couldn't help but frown and bow, covering his left shoulder.
"ah!"
Under the flashlight, Jiang Yuan also discovered that the clothes on Lu Yang's left shoulder had been torn, and a wound was oozing blood. She exclaimed, threw the flashlight in her hand to Xu Wei, and took off her backpack to find a first aid kit.
Xu Wei also knew that he was reckless. With an apology on his face, he held up a flashlight as a moving light source.
"Yuanyuan!"
Jiang Jingdong ran over as fast as he could. When he saw Jiang Yuan squatting on the ground with a first aid kit in her hand, he immediately thought something was wrong with his daughter. He asked anxiously, "Where are you injured?"
Jiang Yuan did not answer, her eyebrows were furrowed and her eyes were a little red.
After trying to calm her breathing, Jiang Yuan stared at Lu Yang's shoulder and thought for a while, then took out a pair of scissors and gently cut off the clothes around Lu Yang's wound.
Then Jiang Yuan took the kettle again, poured out a little, then asked Lu Yang to bow slightly and began to clean his wounds.
Water was poured on Lu Yang's shoulders, and some of it splashed and fell on Jiang Yuan's sportswear, but she didn't pay attention at all.
Jiang Jingdong understood, saw that Jiang Yuan was intact, and breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he asked with concern: "Lu Yang, are you okay?"
At this time, the other three people also ran over. When Lu Jiangan saw Lu Yang was injured, he was originally anxious and wanted to ask. However, when he saw Jiang Yuan's expression, he quietly took a step back and stood beside his son when Jiang Jingdong asked.
There was no sound from behind.
"It's okay, Uncle Jiang," Lu Yang shook his head and smiled, "A little skin injury will heal soon."
After Jiang Yuan cleaned the wound, she took out sterilized cotton and Yunnan Baiyao, and used the sterilized cotton dipped in Yunnan Baiyao to stop the bleeding on Lu Yang's wound.
When the wound touched the white medicine, Lu Yang's shoulders instinctively shrank.
"Does it hurt?" Jiang Yuan's brows furrowed tighter and her eyes became redder.
"No."
Lu Yang turned his head and looked at Jiang Yuan beside him, and found that her exquisitely beautiful face was tense. He was very happy, and the pain in his shoulder gradually faded away.
It was a pity that Jiang Jingdong was staring thoughtfully in front of him, otherwise Lu Yang would have wanted to say something shamelessly.
With you by my side, it won't hurt!
Jiang Yuan carefully covered Lu Yang's wound with Yunnan Baiyao, then wrapped a bandage around Lu Yang's armpit and wrapped it tightly around the wound.
When doing this action, the two people will inevitably be very close.
At such a close distance, even if it was dark and only the flashlight was shining near his shoulder, Lu Yang could clearly see the watery eyes in front of him, and the worry contained in them made him feel comfortable.
At this time, Lu Yang didn't care about Jiang Jingdong and the people around him. He greedily looked at the beautiful face so close and breathed Jiang Yuan's breath.
For some reason, Jiang Yuan's movements also slowed down, and a few times she even took off the bandage with a slip of her hand, and had to rebandage it hurriedly.
After finally bandaging, Lu Yang raised his head and looked at the silent people with different faces around him, as well as Jiang Yuan who didn't dare to look at him. He felt that the atmosphere was too weird.
"Jiang Yuan," Lu Yang had an idea, looked over his shoulder, winked and said, "your skills are much better than mine."
Jiang Yuan glanced at Lu Yang, obviously thinking of the big white radish on her feet, and immediately couldn't help but smile, feeling much more natural.
The atmosphere returned to normal. Xu Wei briefly talked about the situation just now. Jiang Jingdong said thank you to Lu Yang with a smile but not a smile. Lu Yang smiled and said it was okay.
Then Jiang Jingdong said a few words of emotion to Lu Jiangan, saying that he had a good son. Lu Jiangan's tense brows relaxed and he replied with a few polite words.
After this episode, the group no longer had any intention of continuing to hunt, so they packed up their prey and started walking towards Yunzhai.
At around two o'clock in the evening, the group returned to Yunzhai. By this time, Jiang Jinghua, Zhang Shufen and Jiang Yang had already fallen asleep.
Lao Shi's eldest daughter-in-law still managed not to sleep, boiling hot water and waiting for the group.
In the stilted building of the Shi family, the main room has doors on the left and right, and there are passages leading in and out of the bays on both sides. Each bay is divided into two rooms. The area is not too large. The first bay on the right is next to the door and is the eldest daughter-in-law's bedroom, and on the other side is the kitchen.
The second bay on the right next to the door is the old man's bedroom, the other side of the mountain is the fire pond house, the first bay on the left is the bedroom of Mr. and Mrs. Lao Shi, and the back of the mountain is the bedroom of the young wife. The second bay on the left is
There are two guest rooms. The attic on the second floor is usually not occupied and is used to store some sundries.
Although Lao Shi's two sons have gone to work outside, and there are only him, his wife, two daughters-in-law, a granddaughter and an old man at home, the bedroom is still a little nervous with ten guests pouring in at once.
Lao Shi was so proud of his dignity that he naturally refused to let his guests stay at a neighbor's house. The old man was alone in a room and could not be disturbed, so he asked his younger daughter-in-law to squeeze into the bedrooms of his daughter-in-law and granddaughter. He and his wife shared the same room, and the other three rooms on the left were occupied.
Freed up.
Ten guests can only squeeze into three rooms, which is still very nervous. When Lao Shi embarrassedly asked how to allocate the rooms, Lu Yang took the initiative to suggest that he could sleep in the attic.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yang also clamored to sleep in the attic, so Jiang Jinghua had to sleep with him in the attic. He decided that the three children and she would sleep in the attic on the left side, because it was far away from the kitchen and there would be no smoke. Lu Jiangan, Zhang Shufen, Jiang Jingdong
Xu Wei, Uncle Wang and Uncle Chen each have three bedrooms downstairs on the left.
After walking all night, everyone was very tired, so they went to get hot water to wash their faces and feet and get ready for bed. Lu Jiangan asked Lu Yang if he needed help, and Lu Yang waved his hand and said it was okay.
There is a staircase that can go up to the attic from the bottom of the passage in the main room. After going up, there are several rooms with the same layout as downstairs, but the height is much shorter.
Lu Yang bowed his body and returned to the attic room assigned to him earlier. It had been tidied up.
Of course there was no bed, only a straw mat, which was covered with cotton wool in the cold night on the mountain, and a quilt on top.
Lu Yang's clothes were covered in sweat and stained with blood. He took off his clothes first, wearing only his trousers and spare shorts. Then he sat cross-legged on the straw mat, planning to rest and wait for others to finish washing.
Half an hour later, the footsteps below became softer and softer, and the conversations in hushed tones became less and less frequent.
Lu Yang stood up, picked up a towel and went out. He happened to see Jiang Jinghua and Jiang Yang next door, and Jiang Yuan, who was opposite him, also opened the door and walked out.
Obviously she didn't expect Lu Yang to go out at this time. Jiang Yuan's face was obviously stunned, and then she saw clearly what he looked like at this time.
Under the illumination of the gas lamp in his room, Lu Yang's naked upper body, although a little thin, still had clear muscle lines, made Jiang Yuan's face blush, and she lowered her head and prepared to leave.
Suddenly Jiang Yuan stopped walking again. Lu Yang, who was about to follow downstairs with a smile, suddenly had to stop.
"You can't use your shoulders..."
Jiang Yuan looked at the bandage on Lu Yang's shoulder, bit her lip, her face flushed, and a sound as low as a mosquito came from her mouth.
