Chapter 292: Ascending the Mountain
Although Gong Yu's hard work made Gong Jian very satisfied, Gong Jian was worried that due to the limited conditions of his family, the light in the newly cleaned study was not very good, and the second brother worked too hard, which would hurt his eyes. So from time to time, I will remind him.
Gong Yue next to her immediately assured: "Don't worry, eldest brother, I will watch the second brother." When the time came, I called him out and didn't let him stay in the study to read. ”
Gong Jian smiled and touched the top of his little sister's hair: "My family Yue'er is the most powerful, I will hand over your second brother to you." You must urge him, but don't lose his eyes because of reading. Big brother went into the mountain today, to see more, maybe he can find some wild fruits, come back and reward Yue'er. ”
When Gong Yue heard the words of the eldest brother, she jumped up with joy: "Okay, eldest brother, I will definitely guarantee to complete the task." ”
Next to him, Gong Yu also knew that the eldest brother was worried about him. But it's one thing to know, and when he looks at the book, he forgets the hour. If the little sister doesn't remind him, he definitely can't guarantee that he will do what the eldest brother commands. At this time, he could only smile innocently, and then instructed his eldest brother, "Big brother, you must also pay attention to safety in the mountains." ”
"Well, I see, you can all rest assured. Okay, I won't be back at noon, you don't have to wait for me to have lunch. Gong Jian shook the cloth bag with the food and strode out of the house.
Everyone now knows his habit, he never carries any weapon when he goes into the mountains, but picks up a branch or a stone casually, which can be used as a weapon to hit the prey.
As for his hunting skills, everyone is amazed. There are many people in the village who imitate them, but there is not a single successful person.
This also made the people in the village sigh even more, Gong Jian's child, when he was studying, was very smart. At that time, the gentlemen in the private school in the village would praise him as a seed of reading, and he kept educating other children and learning from Gong Jian.
Later, the child could not afford to go to school, but went into the mountains to hunt, and many people regretted it at that time. But what is even more surprising is that Gong Jian is agile and technically excellent.
He often caught more prey than others, not to mention, and there were no obvious wounds, so that the prey that Gong Jian hunted was often sold for a penny or two more than other people's prey when he was brought to the town.
These are the envy of the people in the village, and it is real, there is no way to achieve the level of Gong Jian. So from the jealousy at the beginning, to the admiration later, the people in the village became more and more convinced of Gong Jian, a young man.
Gong Jian greeted the villagers he knew and walked towards the back mountain. As soon as I entered the back mountain, although the snow had completely melted before, the mountain forest still felt bleak.
Today, Gong Jian plans to take a walk in the back mountain. After all, many people in the village will come to the back mountain to hunt, and at this time, it is rare to see prey in the outer range of the back mountain.
He promised Gong Yue today to catch a beautiful pheasant for her. Therefore, Gong Jian felt that he had to go deeper into the mountains and forests.
As Gong Jian walked into the depths of the back mountain step by step, the road under his feet became more and more rugged and difficult to walk. In fact, the place he walked through has long been devoid of any roads, and it is completely what he has just opened up.
Soon, he was on top of a hill. In winter, the leaves of many trees have fallen one after another, and only the bare trunks are left, which are still standing there. Gong Jian was on the top of the mountain, looking around, only to realize that he didn't know when he had deviated from the original direction. The hill he was standing on now was already a certain distance away from their Chenjia Village.
And now he looked from the top of the mountain to the other side of the mountain, in the shade of the trees. He could also see that the other side of the hill was steeper. And at the foot of the mountain, there is a road that winds its way there.
This mountain forest was a place he had never been to before, and Gong Jian was not worried. After all, in his opinion, there is a road under the mountain on the other side, which shows that this place is not very far from people. And he turned around and roughly recorded the direction of Chenjia Village. He didn't want to get lost in the mountains behind him.
Relying on the good view from the top of the mountain, Gong Jian began to look around for wild fruits that might still remain in the woods.
It was also his luck that Gong Jian found a few Yamanashi trees at the corner of a hill. Relying on his good eyesight, he found that on those trees, there were still three or five pears hanging from the fruits.
Gong Jian recognized the direction and slowly walked from the top of the mountain to the corner of the hill. As he passed through a bamboo forest, he heard a slight cracking sound.
As soon as he heard the faint voice, Gong Jian's body seemed to enter a magical state. His brain seemed to have perfectly calculated all the trajectories without thinking. And he only relied on his physical instinct to approach the bamboo forest silently.
Picking up a stone casually, Gong Jian threw it towards the place where the fallen leaves of the bamboo had piled up. After the sound of breaking the air, there was a grunt, and a pheasant jumped up from the fallen leaves.
The pheasant did not want to escape because he found the enemy, but because he was in unbearable pain when he was hit by a stone, which was his last reaction.
When Gong Jian walked over to pick up the pheasant and saw its gorgeous feathers, he smiled with satisfaction. Today's luck is really good, it can be said that my wish has come true. This beautiful pheasant, just look at its colorful and reflective feathers that glitter in the sun. Gong Jian can imagine that his little sister will be very happy.
He grabbed the pheasant that had fallen to the ground and put it into the cloth bag prepared by his second brother.
Tie the opening of the bag, Gong Jian held the bag in his hand, and continued to march in the direction of the Yamanashi trees he saw before.
After a long while, Gong Jian finally walked in front of the sash trees, and he looked up at the sand trees, which were not too tall. At this time, only the bare branches of the Yamanashi trees remained, and there were still a few fruits hanging on the top of the branches.
Gong Jian looked at the trunk of the Yamanashi tree, which was only the thickness of a bowl, and the branches that had no leaves and looked extremely fragile.
He felt that such a Yamanashi tree was estimated to be unable to bear its own weight. So he looked down and looked around for some pebbles, aimed at the fruit of the branches, and threw them. As soon as the pebble was released, Gong Jian opened his pocket under the tree, waiting for the pear to roll off the branch and fall into the cloth bag.
This action was done in one go, and soon, a few pears on the branches were put into the cloth bag by him one by one.
