After this incident, Xiwazi and Lewazi became closer to Zhang Yu.
At noon that day, Zhang Yu was taking a nap when two children came to him and said they wanted to take him to smoke rabbits.
Zhang Yu has seen countless rabbits. The secret space has been flooded countless times, but he has never smoked a rabbit.
After the two children said this, they immediately became interested.
"Walk!"
The two children walked excitedly at the front. As they walked, they introduced to Zhang Yu: "Uncle Xiao Yu, I brought salt and matches. We will roast the rabbit later."
Lewazi seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but swallowed: "Uncle Xiaoyu, my brother's roasted rabbit is delicious, you must try it."
"Okay! I will definitely try your craftsmanship today." Zhang Yu responded with a smile, but he also understood that the rabbits roasted by the children may not be really delicious.
Just like grilling fish when he was a kid.
In his imagination or memory, the fish was a very delicious thing.
But if you say how delicious it really is, that’s not necessarily true.
Of course, if you insisted that the grilled dark fish was very delicious without even a hint of salt, he wouldn't refute it.
But when you think about it, you will know that fish that has no taste and is fishy will definitely not taste good.
The reason why I thought it was delicious at that time was not necessarily because I thought the grilled fish was delicious, but mainly because of the process of grilling the fish.
I worked for a long time for three or two small fish that were no longer than a finger. In the end, no one even got a bite, but I was still very happy.
Thinking of this, the corners of Zhang Yu's lips curled up slightly. He missed his elder brother and the others.
In order to reminisce about his childhood, Zhang Yu was childish for a moment and specially made a seasoning bag.
Inside are chopped onions, ginger, salt, chili powder, honey...
With these seasonings, even people who don’t know how to cook can make delicious food.
I followed the two children and watched them making friends along the way. By the time they reached the hill where I picked wild fruits last time, a large group of children had gathered.
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Xiwazi clapped his hands in a leadership style and waved his hands, signaling everyone to follow his command.
"Lewazi, you take people to collect firewood, Ergou, you take people to catch fish in the creek..."
Seeing Xiwazi arranging things for everyone in a decent manner, Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh, this kid is a good candidate for an official.
However, Zhang Yu was a little worried when he heard that they were going to Xiaohegou to catch fish.
In this regard, Xiwazi explained: "Uncle Xiaoyu, don't worry. The water in the creek flows down from the mountain. It is very shallow. It reaches my calf and cannot drown anyone."
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Yu just breathed a sigh of relief.
However, I still asked a few more questions, and after confirming that there was really no problem with Xiaohegou, I gave up my doubts.
The youngest children were assigned to collect firewood, and the older ones were assigned to catch fish in small river ditches. After these people left, only a few older children were left.
Xiwazi waved his hand and announced directly: "Let's go smoke the rabbit hole."
After that, he turned around and looked at Zhang Yu: "Uncle Xiao Yu, are you going to catch fish, or are you going to smoke the rabbit hole with us?"
"I'll go to the rabbit hole with you." Zhang Yu was really curious as he had never done this before.
While a group of children were having a hard time, Zhang Yu suddenly saw Da Mao and several peers walking towards Xishan.
He was a little worried, so he told Xiwazi and ran to stop some children.
"Where are you going?"
Damao replied: "Let's go to the foot of the Western Mountain to collect some firewood."
Zhang Yu frowned slightly: "Can't you pick it up here? You saw how dangerous it is in Xishan that day."
Damao: "Uncle Xiaoyu, there is no firewood here."
Zhang Yu took a look around and saw that the mountains here were relatively close to the brigade. The younger children basically played nearby and picked up some firewood every day.
Zhang Yu also heard from his uncle and others that the people in the village still have a very tacit understanding about collecting firewood.
Adults generally don't collect firewood from the hills closest to the village. Those firewoods are reserved for children.
As for adults to collect firewood, they usually go to the foot of the West Mountain, or to two other slightly larger mountains.
Gradually, children aged 10 and up also developed this habit.
Zhang Yu said with some worry: "Then you should be careful. Just collect firewood at the foot of the mountain, but don't run up the mountain."
Da Mao nodded and pointed to the backpack on his body: "Uncle Xiao Yu, don't worry, we won't go in, we will just pick up some firewood at the foot of the mountain, and then go back after picking up a load of clams."
"That's good!" Zhang Yu nodded, and then asked sharply: "Did you tell your family when you came over?"
Da Mao: "I told you, my grandma knew that I was going to the foot of the Western Mountain to collect firewood, and she even asked me to bring a knife."
As he said that, he took out a rusty hatchet from his backpack.
Seeing that they had all reported to their families and that their families had prepared things for them, Zhang Yu felt a little relieved.
However, I still did not forget to warn again: "It is extremely dangerous inside the car. You must not go in."
"I know, Uncle Xiaoyu." After experiencing what happened with Ermao and Xiaopang, the children were not bored at all by Zhang Yu's repeated warnings, but Zhang Yu still noticed something was wrong.
But when I looked more closely, I didn't find anything wrong.
After saying goodbye, looking at Da Mao's back, Zhang Yu had an ominous premonition in his heart.
But at this moment, the noisy voices of Xiwazi and the others drew his attention back.
Looking up, I saw several children chasing a rabbit.
"Oh, come on, someone, the rabbit is running to the other side, someone, come on, stop it!"
"Ah ah ah, the rabbit is running towards you again, stop it quickly, stop it quickly!"
"The rabbit has escaped. It has gone to your place. Stop it quickly!"
"Oh, why are you so stupid?"
"Let me come, let me come! I must catch it!"
"Oh, almost."
"..."
Listening to the noise of the children, Zhang Yu was also infected by the atmosphere and stopped worrying about Da Mao.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Yu looked at a group of children catching their children with a smile.
Suddenly, the hare broke through the crowd and came towards Zhang Yu.
Looking at the rabbit so close, Zhang Yu subconsciously stretched out his foot and kicked it hard. The rabbit hit the tree nearby, twitched twice, and then became motionless.
A group of children chased over and looked at the rabbit that was kicked to death by Zhang Yu. They were stunned for a moment, and then cheered loudly.
Among them, Xiwazi was the most excited. He rushed over and hugged Zhang Yu's thigh: "Ah ah ah, Uncle Xiao Yu, you are so awesome! You caught the rabbit."
"Uncle Xiaoyu, Uncle Xiaoyu, can you also teach me how to catch rabbits?" More children came over.
Facing this group of sweet-talking children who adored him, Zhang Yu was so proud.
In full view of everyone, he picked up the rabbit and waved his hand: "Let's go make a fire and roast the rabbit."
"Wow! It's great, I can eat rabbit meat, I can eat rabbit!"
Zhang Yu weighed the hare with his hands.
That rabbit is really not light, weighing five or six pounds.
When a group of children asked to be skinned, Zhang Yu was still a little hesitant.
But when he saw Xiwazi disemboweling and skinning the rabbit very neatly, Zhang Yu knew that these children had been putting in a lot of trouble before.
Hearing the cheers, the children who ran to collect firewood and catch fish also came back.
I picked up a lot of firewood, but I really didn’t catch many fish.
Seeing a group of children looking at the rabbit eagerly, Zhang Yu suddenly felt that the rabbit was actually not that big.
Each child can only get one or two bites at most.
After thinking about it, he found a reason to leave for a while, and then came back with four big fat rabbits.
He didn't go to smoke the rabbit hole. He took out this rabbit from the secret space.
Seeing Zhang Yu holding two big fat rabbits in one hand, the children present couldn't help but said: "Wow!"
Xiwazi opened his eyes even more: "Uncle Xiaoyu, did you catch this rabbit?"
Zhang Yu nodded and handed him the rabbit that had killed me.
"I just happened to see a rabbit nest when I was going out, so I caught it."
Zhang Yu spoke calmly, but a group of children looked full of admiration.
"Uncle Xiaoyu, you are really amazing!"
Xiwazi praised Zhang Yu excitedly, but refused to take the rabbit that Zhang Yu handed over.
He scratched his head and said, "Uncle Xiao Yu, you caught this rabbit. You should take it home and eat it. This one is enough for us."
As soon as these words came out, the other children were a little disappointed, and they all echoed: "Yes, yes, Xiwazi is right. Uncle Xiaoyu has already given us a rabbit. You should take this rabbit home to eat."
.”
Seeing that the children were so obedient and sensible, Zhang Yu directly stuffed the rabbit into the arms of the older children.
"Stop whining and whining, hurry up and get rid of the rabbit, everyone is still waiting to eat it."
"Uncle Xiaoyu." Xiwazi was still a little hesitant.
"Okay, okay, you've got a chance to meet me. I said I would treat you to rabbit today, but you can't let me keep my word."
The children were not afraid at all and packed up the four big fat rabbits very neatly.
Looking at the big fat rabbit in his hand, Xiwazi couldn't help but sigh: "It's so fat, such a big rabbit!"
Looking at the big fat rabbit in his brother's hand, Lewazi couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't help but urge: "Brother, bake it quickly, I'm hungry."
Zhang Yu took out the seasoning packets prepared in advance and taught several children how to use them.
From time to time, I also taught a few children some tips on roasting rabbits.
After the rabbit was roasted, Xiwazi tore off a rabbit leg and handed it directly to Zhang Yu.
"Uncle Xiaoyu, please try it. How does it taste?"
Looking at a group of bright-eyed children, Zhang Yu took a bite of the rabbit meat in his hand.
To be honest, even with the seasonings he prepared, the taste is mediocre at best.
However, looking at the expectant eyes of the children, Zhang Yu still nodded and praised: "It tastes very good."
The corner of Xiwazi's mouth raised high, and he tore off half of the rabbit and handed it to Zhang Yu: "It's delicious, Xiaoyu, please eat more."
Zhang Yu rejected the half rabbit he handed over again and raised the rabbit in his hand: "You guys can eat it, I only have this rabbit leg."
Worried that a group of children would be embarrassed to eat because of his presence, Zhang Yu finished the rabbit legs in his hands in a few mouthfuls and then found an excuse to leave.
"I have something to do, you guys eat first, and don't forget to put out the fire after you're done."
Xiwazi nodded: "I understand, Uncle Xiaoyu."
As soon as Zhang Yu left, he heard the excited voices of the children.
"I want to eat rabbit legs, I want to eat rabbit legs!"
"I want to eat..."
Hearing this, Zhang Yu smiled slightly.
When he came down the mountain, he thought about going to the foot of the west mountain to collect firewood. He felt a little uneasy, so he strolled to the foot of the west mountain.
When we arrived at the foot of the Western Mountain, we didn't see Da Mao.
Zhang Yu was a little worried and looked around. He found a child who had just come to collect firewood with Da Mao and asked him if he had seen where Da Mao had gone.
When he learned that Da Mao thought there were few branches at the foot of the mountain and walked a little further in, Zhang Yu's expression changed, his heart skipped a beat, and he finally remembered that something was wrong.
Because Er Mao's injury was relatively serious, Da Mao's parents gave up the idea of taking turns taking care of their children in the hospital. They are both in the hospital now.
As for Grandma Da Mao, she is not young at all. If she is bothered by Er Mao's incident, she is still willing to let Da Mao get close to Xishan.
Zhang Yu heard last night from Uncle Xie that Grandma Da Mao was so nervous about Da Mao that she was not even willing to let him go to the hill to collect firewood.
Under such circumstances, how could the old lady be willing to let Damao collect firewood at the foot of the Western Mountain?
The boy Da Mao probably sneaked out and took a woodcutter.
After thinking about it clearly, Zhang Yu felt as if he had thought of what Damao was going to do.
After asking where Da Mao came from, he chased after him directly.
While chasing, I prayed in my heart: This child must not do anything stupid!
Thinking of the knife in Da Mao's belt, Zhang Yu's ominous premonition deepened.
Along the way, Zhang Yu did not dare to stop at all, and finally found Da Mao halfway up the mountain.
When he found Da Mao, he was lying in the bushes, holding a knife in his hand and staring straight at a man in black clothes.
He was holding a shovel and was digging something there.
While digging, he cursed: "Fuck...Which bastard ruined my trap? Damn it..."
The man who was digging the trap didn't notice the big hair in the bushes at all.
Seeing the fierce light in Da Mao's eyes, Zhang Yu had no doubt that he would be able to chop the opponent with a knife in the next second.
Zhang Yu subconsciously crouched down and also hid in the dense bushes.
Through the gaps in the bushes, Zhang Yu carefully observed the man, trying to identify who he was.
It's a pity that the other person always has his back turned to him, so Zhang Yu can't see clearly what the other person looks like.
Seeing that as the man scolded him more and more viciously, Da Mao's eyes became redder and redder. Zhang Yu's heart began to beat fast. He was worried that Da Mao was too impulsive.
Zhang Yu secretly prayed: "Da Mao, calm down, you must stay calm! Don't rush over!"
It wasn't that he was timid, but through his observation just now, he seemed to see the bulge on the other person's waist.
If he saw it correctly, the shape of the thing seemed... like a wooden warehouse.
Zhang Yu couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
I'm going!
Who is this person digging the trap?
He actually still wears Mucang with him.
At this moment, a rustling sound suddenly came from the side.
It was as if something very big was passing through the bushes. The sound was getting louder and louder, and it was getting closer and closer to Zhang Yu.
