Among the trees, there were occasionally the frightening calls of night owls, the sound of birds flapping their wings, the sound of branches swaying... any sound that could be heard was infinitely amplified in Chen Xiuyu's mind.
She had never been so scared.
All that can be done is to shrink as much as possible.
There was a rustling sound coming from the trees ahead, and it was getting closer.
In horror, she took out the slingshot Lu Lu had made for her, held it in the bullet pocket, and stared nervously outside the tree hole, but she sadly discovered that the slingshot still could not give her any sense of security.
"Woooo..."
A familiar voice came from outside, it seemed to be Yuanbao's humming.
When she was in panic, she heard the sound of a match being struck in front of the tree hole, accompanied by the smell of burning sulfur.
Immediately afterwards, the flames became bigger and brighter, and there was the smell of burning pine oil and the sound of crackling and exploding.
The flames continued to expand, and gradually, Chen Xiuyu, who was huddled in the tree hole, felt the warmth.
Even so, she still couldn't believe it was true.
Until Lu Lu's voice came from outside: "Old girl, come out!"
Chen Xiuyu felt that she had never heard such a beautiful voice in her life. It was as if three souls and seven souls suddenly returned to her body at that moment. Her body began to regain strength and her head gradually became clear.
She slowly poked her head out of the tree hole and saw Lu Lu standing in front of the tree hole looking at her. The four Yuan Baoniangs were sniffing around, and Chen Xiuqing was busy adding wood to the fire to make it burn brighter.
More prosperous.
"Brother Lu...it's really you..."
"It's me!"
Chen Xiuyu suddenly emerged from the tree hole, threw herself into Lu Lu's arms, and started crying: "I thought I would never see you again..."
Lu Lu raised his hand, hugged her with his arms, and held her tightly in his arms, feeling the trembling body of this person who was close to him.
After re-living, this girl finally falls into my arms.
He patted Chen Xiuyu's back gently and comforted: "It's okay...it's okay!"
Chen Xiuqing sat down by the fire and looked at the two people silently. After a while, she said something that extremely ruined the atmosphere: "You deserve it. Who told you to follow me secretly all the way? Let's see if you dare to do it every day in the future."
Thinking about hunting.”
Hearing Chen Xiuqing's voice, Chen Xiuyu froze and hurriedly broke away from Lu Lu's arms, wiping the tears on her face with her sleeves. She looked at Chen Xiuqing and then at Lu Lu: "How did you know I was following you?
"
"I didn't know it at first, but Brother Lu just came out of the cellar and when he reached the ridge, he already knew that you were coming." Chen Xiuqing said with a smile.
"So, Brother Lu, you came to this deep mountain on purpose, and suddenly you disappeared without a trace, was that also on purpose?"
Chen Xiuyu looked at Lu Lu blankly. Under the flickering firelight, it was hard to tell what her expression was, but her tone was enough to show that it would not be good.
"yes!"
Lu Lu nodded, sat down by the fire, and glared at Chen Xiuqing.
"Why?" Chen Xiuyu's voice was a little cold.
"I just want you to give up the idea of going into the mountains to hunt. I just want to tell you that hunting is something more suitable for men. And..."
Lu Lu turned his head and looked at Chen Xiuyu: "I don't want you to get hurt in any way because of this idea."
After a pause, Lu Lu continued: "It turns out that you may have some talent in shooting slingshots, but you are not suitable for hunting either physically or mentally.
After only walking for a few hours, you can no longer keep up. When you are alone in the forest, the whole person is in chaos. You can't even tell the difference between east, west and north. Especially at night.
, only dared to huddle in the tree hole, trembling and crying.
And you have to know that sometimes when we go into the mountains, we may track our prey for dozens of kilometers, or we may stay in the mountains for several days in order to guard the prey. Even I may even get lost in the mountains.
Not coming out.
Hunting is never as simple as you think, nor is it a child's play.
Think about it yourself!"
After Lu Lu finished speaking, he opened the hunting bag he was carrying and took out a lot of prepared greyhound meat and rabbit meat in bags.
Seeing that Lu Lu was preparing to get food, Chen Xiuqing hurriedly used the firelight to chop some wooden sticks from the bushes not far away, repaired them and handed them to Lu Lu.
When Lu Lu was wearing the game with sticks, he cut four more tree branches and inserted them next to the fire, with sticks on them, so that Lu Lu could put the game on the fire and roast them.
"Sister, don't stand there stupidly. Aren't you cold? Come to the fire and warm yourself up. It's cold at night. If you get cold, it won't be good!"
Seeing Chen Xiuyu standing still, Chen Xiuqing persuaded him: "Don't blame Brother Lu. He just wants to let you know that hunting is very hard and dangerous. Look at it."
Just walking around in the mountains is enough for you. If you encounter any wild animals again, do you think you can handle it?
Brother is the best example. He learned a little bit, had a big heart, and went to hunt bears. If it weren't for Brother Lu, he would have died a long time ago.
In fact, Brother Lu is more worried about you than I am. When you were wandering around in the mountains, he was always watching over you, not far away. He was always there.
Just listen to Brother Lu and don’t think about hunting in the future!"
"But...but I just want to learn how to hunt, be able to accompany Brother Lu all the time, and do something for Brother Lu. Even if I die in the mountains, I am willing to accompany him!"
Tears fell uncontrollably from Chen Xiuyu's eyes: "I don't want to be like my mother. My father died in the mountains. I can't do anything but complain all my life."
Hearing this, Chen Xiuqing fell silent for a moment.
Lu Lu's heart trembled violently, as if he had been violently grabbed.
He suddenly discovered that this girl's feelings for him were so sincere.
The girl in my mind still has the same inner emotions as in her previous life, so passionate.
Lu Lu stood up, walked to Chen Xiuyu again, pulled her into his arms, and held her tightly.
"You are still so stupid... But you have to know that if you really follow me up the mountain, I will be distracted by you when I am hunting. On the contrary, I will be more cautious because I know you are waiting for me at home. I am now
This life is just to protect you!"
After a long time, Lu Lu released her and looked at Chen Xiuyu seriously: "Listen to me from now on and stop thinking about hunting, okay?"
Chen Xiuyu didn't understand the meaning of Lu Lu's words, but that didn't stop her from feeling the authenticity that came from Lu Lu.
She nodded heavily: "Yes!"
Hearing this, Lu Lu finally breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at her, and held Chen Xiuyu in his arms again.
On the side, Chen Xiuqing was roasting game on the fire while silently looking at the two people hugging each other, with eyes full of envy.
After eating game to fill his stomach, Lu Lu picked up a lot of pine needles from the foot of the red pine and stuffed them into the hole of the tree. He let the exhausted Chen Xiuyu sleep inside. He got a lot of firewood and added more firewood.
Leaning against the tree hole.
As a result, he and Chen Xiuyu were not asleep yet, but Chen Xiuqing lay beside the fire and snored, talking in her sleep: "Swallow..."
