Chapter 290: Borrowing People and Borrowing Cows
sent Mo Sheng away, and in the evening, grandpa came to Bian Rui, and talked to Bian Rui about some of the rules agreed between the old mountain guests, and then left.
After dinner, Bian Rui continued to be busy with his carpentry work, and at almost half past eight, a few crazy little girls returned home with a schoolbag and a little flower dog.
The two of them fought for about half an hour, took a shower and went back to their rooms to sleep.
For a few days in a row, Bian Rui listened to his grandfather talk about what to pay attention to in the old forest, and how to deal with it when encountering danger.
In the past, the old man was not afraid of Bian Rui breaking into the old forest, that was because there was nothing in the old forest, and the biggest carnivorous wild animal was just a fox, but now that kind of beast has come out, the old man is not afraid. He is just this one grandson, if it is really because some mountain goods are folded in the old forest, the old man is afraid that he will have no face to see his ancestors after he dies, and the inheritance of bloodline is much more important than life for the old generation of Chinese people.
Bian Rui naturally disagreed, but the old man was not discouraged, he came over every two days to say the last sentence, and he had to come over to see his grandson every day, probably because he was afraid that Bian Rui would sneak into the old woods, and Bian Rui would be speechless.
On this day, Bian Rui is dealing with vegetables in the vegetable garden, some of the vegetables that have passed the season are going to be dropped, the weather is beginning to cool down day by day, many vegetables that are not out of season can not be planted, and they have to be replaced with cold-resistant vegetables.
Bian Rui was busy working, when he heard footsteps coming into his ears, he stood up and wiped the sweat on his head, looked outside, and found that it was his grandfather again.
"Grandpa, I'm here!" Bian Rui waved his hand.
Bian Rui's grandfather saw that his grandson was at home and was busy in the vegetable garden, so he raised his feet and came to the door of the vegetable garden, opened the door and walked into the vegetable garden.
"Grandpa, don't do it, I'm almost done here," Bian Rui said immediately when he saw that his grandfather was going to take a hand.
"It's almost done," the old man saw that there was really not much to do, so he clapped his hands and stood up.
"Well, when you plant big greens in the afternoon, it's almost time to make sauerkraut, and then make two jars of roasted mutton for the winter," Bian Rui said with a smile.
The sauerkraut made in different places in China is different, some places use Chinese cabbage, some places use cabbage or cabbage or something, some places use small green cabbage, Bian Rui's hometown here is a special high-top green cabbage, which looks like green vegetables but is very high, almost can grow to fifty or sixty centimeters high, and the taste of the sauerkraut made is different from the taste of other places.
"How much do you use two cylinders?" Bian Rui's grandfather was a little skeptical.
"Not much, here and there, send highlights, five or six of my friends here, in addition to sauerkraut, cabbage, radish strips or something, all of them want to get something for nothing" Bian Rui said with a smile.
"That's pretty much it, when the time comes, let your grandma come over to help you check it, your level of sauerkraut is not reassuring," Bian Rui's grandfather said.
"Okay, let grandma come over and check on me when the time comes," Bian Rui said with a smile.
"It's nothing, I'll go back first" Bian Rui's grandfather saw that there was nothing to do, and his grandson didn't run away secretly, so he decided to go back and continue to herd his sheep.
Bian Rui said: "Grandpa, you don't have to come often, I won't run to say that although the weather is cooler in the morning and evening, but there is still a week before the next time I go to Mingzhu, what am I going to do in the forest?"
"You kid has a lot of ideas, I have to guard against it," Bian Rui's grandfather said.
Bian Rui listened, thought for a while, and then said to his grandfather: "Grandpa, you come with me, I will show you something, after seeing such a thing, you will know that it will not be much danger for me to enter the old forest alone."
"What's that?" Bian Rui's grandfather was quite strange.
Bian Rui stood up: "You come with me, you'll know when you see it."
Clapping his hands, Bian Rui took his grandfather back to the yard, went directly into the workshop, and then pulled out a long wooden box that seemed to be a big material under a pile of wood, opened it and pushed it in front of the old man, and the old man was directly stunned.
"This thing is going to jail, where did you get it?"
The old man saw a rifle and a dozen or so shiny bullets, and immediately looked up at his grandson. You must know that this is a gun, and if you catch it, you will have to go to jail, and you will not say anything polite.
Bian Rui knew that he wanted to be crooked when he saw his grandfather's expression, so he opened his mouth and explained: "I didn't do anything bad, this is what my master left behind, and I also found it when I counted his relics, and I didn't hand it in when I was itchy for a while, and now it comes in handy."
As soon as he heard that it was left by Lao Dao, Bian Rui's grandfather was relieved, for Lao Dao Bian Rui's grandfather, he was regarded as a fairy-like character, not to mention that he was hiding a gun at home, even if he hid a rocket, he didn't feel strange.
"This thing can be taken out casually? you know that if this gets out, you kid will have to squat" Bian Rui's grandfather picked up the gun, and then began to draw the bolt, looking inside and out, and praised the gun for good maintenance while looking at it.
"You can also play with guns?" said Bian Ricky.
Bian Rui's grandfather said with a smile: "How many years have guns been banned, and it has only been thirty or forty years, how old am I, you have no memory, so you don't mention the things before liberation, just say that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was a period of time when all the people were soldiers, not to mention that they were strong young men, and children in their teens would play with guns."
As he spoke, the old man seemed to be casual but very skillful fiddling with the gun: "Springfield, made in the United States, this kind of gun is rare now, the village used to use the 38 type, and some of them are official, and those are much worse than this."
"Put it away, don't talk to anyone about it!"
"I didn't say anything but you."
Bian Rui was forced by his grandfather to come up with such a trick, and he was not idle, and he had nothing to do all over the world shouting that he had a gun?
"Your daughter-in-law, your parents didn't tell you?"
The old man was a little skeptical.
Bian Rui said: "I didn't say anything, you are the first one now, I have been getting it for more than a year, when do you think I have shown off?"
"Don't show it well, showing off in this world is the way to die, I won't ask you about this in the future, don't mention it, just hide it carefully, it's not safe to go into the old forest alone without this thing. Okay, now I don't have to worry about your safety, but when the time comes, I have to bring more dogs, two or three, anyway, there is no problem with most of the cow's strength to carry some food, and besides, you can also feed some wild things" Bian Rui's grandfather is relieved now.
Bian Rui nodded and replied, "I know!"
"Remind you again, this matter" Speaking of this, the old man waved his hand and motioned to his grandson not to say anything.
Bian Rui nodded.
"Bian Rui, Bian Rui!"
Just as the grandfather and grandson were solemnly talking about the gun, there was a call from outside the courtyard door.
As soon as Bian Rui's grandfather and grandson heard it, they knew that Gao Minglou was coming.
Bian Rui quickly put away the gun box and put it in the wood pile, and then stood in the yard with his grandfather.
"Here it is!"
Hearing Bian Rui's echo, Gao Minglou walked into the courtyard and saw Bian Rui's grandfather there, so Gao Minglou said hello to the old man first.
"Yo, Uncle Bian, are you here?" Gao Minglou said.
Bian Rui's grandfather smiled: "I'll come and take a look." Okay, let's talk about it."
Gao Minglou smiled and said, "I don't have anything to do, I just came over to inform Bian Rui that we will move out in a few days."
When Bian Rui heard that Gao Minglou's gang was going to move away, he was secretly happy, but he pretended to be a little puzzled on his face: "Move away, where to move?"
People who don't know must think that the relationship between Bian Rui and Gao Minglou is not bad at first glance, and they are a little reluctant to him.
Gao Minglou was confused by Bian Rui's expression, and directly opened his mouth and said: "You kid can laugh if you want, but don't be complacent, we didn't move far, just about seven or eight miles southwest of the archaeological team's camp."
"That's the Tuya River, right?" Bian Rui's grandfather immediately thought of that place.
Gao Minglou said: "Yes, that's over there."
"Why did you run so far all at once, the conditions there are not good," Bian Rui asked.
Bian Rui also knew that in that place, the road with high mountains and steep slopes was very difficult to walk.
"There's no way, we've found the footprints of the beast over there, and we're going to search around there," Gao Minglou said.
Bian Rui said: "You said what you do all day, so you haven't even figured out what that thing is, you have to tell me whether that thing is a leopard or something."
Gao Minglou said: "We preliminarily judged that it may be a melanistic mountain leopard, and it is a genetic mutation that produced this new leopard species, but everything has to wait for us to get more information to judge ......."
"Okay, I'm not in your business, what are you doing so carefully with me, say, if there's anything you want me to help with, you won't come and talk to me if you're fine, right?" Bian Rui asked.
Gao Minglou was not polite, and opened his mouth directly and said: "I want to borrow your stupid cow for use, this time we will definitely not be able to go through the car, we can only use livestock."
Bian Rui said: "You can't borrow a stupid cow, and you can't greet anyone except me."
"Then even you will borrow it," Gao Minglou said.
Bian Rui replied simply: "Don't borrow! Who knows how many days it will take to leave this time, if you get ten days and a half months, I will still accompany you? Eh, eh! Don't kidnap me with morality again, the country can't do without this black dead leopard, and the people are alive and well!"
"Last time it was a special situation, this time it's different, I promise it's that place, if you go farther, you will kill me directly, kill me on the spot!" Gao Minglou began to swear.
Bian Rui said: "I still can't trust you!"
"......" Gao Minglou was speechless.
