Chapter 895: Departure (3rd Watch)
This sentence undoubtedly pierced Song Xiuyan's heart again.
While cutting the beef, he thought about how to keep Rodin from being wronged.
On the day he set off for the mountains, Luo Zhan actually got a carriage.
The wide carriage was also covered with a layer of straw and a layer of wool felt.
Luo Zhan put the quilt and things in the back of the carriage first, and then let Luo Dan and Qin Xiaoyu take Guoguo to sit in the carriage. The little monster and the pine cone jumped and sat on the luggage in the back, after entering the mountain with Qin Xiaoyu this time, they were going back, and they would come back in autumn.
Dabai and Blizzard trotted behind the carriage.
Guoguo clapped her little hands excitedly and kept shouting: "Drive, drive......"
Luo Zhan was in charge of catching the car, and Song Xiuyan and Luo Zhan sat side by side in the front, chatting in a whisper from time to time.
Out of the group gate, Rodin regretfully said: "It's over, I forgot to ask Jia Shanghai for two watermelons." ”
Guoguo followed and learned: "It's over, I forgot to ask for watermelon." ”
Qin Xiaoyu smiled: "You just let Director Jia go for two days, everyone planted some watermelons and the two of you ate them." ”
Luo Dan leaned on Song Xiuyan's back and laughed.
Heading north from the town, there was a national road at first, and then it turned into a path frequented by herders, which was a bit bumpy and rugged.
Luo Zhan was afraid of a few people, slowed down his horse, and walked slowly into the mountains.
The slopes of the mountains are covered with knee-high thatch, and occasionally the small river flowing down the mountain is hidden in the middle, and only the sound of the water can be heard, but the river cannot be seen.
The air was filled with the smell of earth and grass.
Guoguo had gone from being excited at the beginning to dozing off, and finally fell asleep in Qin Xiaoyu's arms.
Luo Dan asked Song Xiuyan behind him with great interest: "Is there a small river here?" Are there any fish in the creek? ”
Song Xiuyan nodded: "This river is just a mountain where the snow melts and flows down, and there will be no fish at all." ”
Rodin was disappointed: "I thought you could catch two fish and make grilled fish." ”
Song Xiuyan smiled: "It will definitely make you eat fish." ”
Because the carriage was moving slowly, it was only halfway in the evening, Luo Zhan found a winter nest and stopped, preparing to rest in the winter nest for a night at night, and continue walking forward when it was dawn.
Qin Xiaoyu was speechless: "How can it be so far?" ”
"Even if it is a gallop on horseback, it will take a day and a night, so it will definitely take two days for us to walk so slowly." Luo Zhan said and got out of the car and hugged Guoguo.
Qin Xiaoyu got out of the car, moved his arms and legs, and took Guoguo to the toilet in nature.
As soon as Luo Dan got out of the car, he rubbed his butt and said to Song Xiuyan: "Oh, my ass is going to hurt." ”
Song Xiuyan smiled and rubbed Rodin's head affectionately: "Activity, I'll catch fish for you in a while." ”
"There's not even a river here, where are the fish?" Rodin glared.
Song Xiuyan smiled mysteriously: "Winter nests are generally built in places with water sources nearby, so you can rest assured." ”
Rodin pouted and coquettishly said: "Then I'll go too, I'll see you catch fish." ”
"You stay with your sister-in-law to watch the children, and I'll go over with my eldest brother." Song Xiuyan said and carefully removed the grass residue from Rodin's head.
Rodin thought about it and nodded: "Okay then." ”
Luo Zhan unloaded the luggage on the carriage, cleaned the earthen kang in the winter nest house, picked up some hay and spread it, and took down the felt blanket on the carriage and laid it out, and finally spread the thick quilt, and called Luo Dan and Qin Xiaoyu to bring Guoguo over to rest.
Luo Zhan confessed to Qin Xiaoyu: "Let Da Bai and Feixue guard the door, you sleep for a while, Xiu Yan and I will come back soon, before we come back, don't go out of this house, it's evening, the beasts in the mountains should come out to find food." ”
Qin Xiaoyu nodded: "Go ahead, be careful on the road." ”
Luo Zhan looked around the neighborhood again before he and Song Xiuyan took the bucket to the river.
As a rule of thumb, follow the trail towards the river down the hillside.
Song Xiuyan was silent for a while and said, "Are you carrying a mission?" ”
Luo Zhan raised his eyebrows and looked at Song Xiuyan: "Not bad." ”
Song Xiuyan grabbed the long grass on the side of his leg with his hand: "The Asian Games are coming soon, it must not be peaceful here." ”
"Well, every time something big happens in the country, there will be changes in the frontier. This time, there is also information that the leader of the last riot is still in the territory, and he is hiding in this area. Large-scale searches of mountains can create tension in the national atmosphere, because there is sometimes no principled unity among the same people. Luo Zhan sighed.
Song Xiuyan glanced at Luo Zhan: "Did you bring a gun?" ”
"Brought it."
Song Xiuyan smiled slightly: "Put it in a thermos." ”
Luo Zhan patted Song Xiuyan on the shoulder: "You still know me." ”
"Xiaosi and sister-in-law won't be in danger, right?" Song Xiuyan was more worried about this.
Luo Zhan shook his head: "I definitely won't take them on an adventure." ”
Song Xiuyan shrugged: "Then let's do it." ”
The two of them went to the river at the valley and found a place where the current was relatively slow, ready to catch fish.
The sun is setting and the water is sparkling.
Song Xiuyan took off his shoes and socks, pulled up his trousers and went down to the river, carefully trickled to the stone, waited for a while, and then moved the stone lightly, and two big black fish escaped and swam to both sides.
Luo Zhan stood by the river, watched the fish swim out, and quickly threw the dagger in his hand, and the dagger passed through the belly of one of the fish and pierced directly into the tail of the other fish.
The two fish that had just separated were nailed together again.
Song Xiuyan bent down and quickly grabbed the two fish and raised his eyebrows: "Yes, now I don't lead troops, and this kung fu has not regressed." ”
Luo Zhan smiled: "You can talk about it one day." ”
Song Xiuyan carried the fish ashore and said with great interest: "Don't wait for a day?" Let's start from now on, see who catches more prey these days? ”
Luo Zhan hooked the corners of his lips: "Okay." ”
The two returned to the winter nest with a bucket of water and two fish, and caught a hare by the way.
Qin Xiaoyu and Luo Dan were tired from riding in the carriage, and they slept in military coats.
Guoguo also continued to fall asleep in Qin Xiaoyu's arms.
Luo Zhan and Song Xiuyan moved lightly to light a fire outside, began to grill fish, and then hoisted the marching pot they brought, and cooked a pot of broth noodles.
Qin Xiaoyu and Luo Dan smelled the aroma of rice.
Rodin came out of the house and saw that in the twilight, Song Xiuyan was roasting fish in front of the fire, and the thick fragrance made her swallow her saliva: "You guys are so good, you really caught a fish." ”
Song Xiuyan patted the meadow next to him dotingly: "Sit down, it's just ready to eat." ”
Luo Dan went over and sat down cross-legged, not wanting to reach out and open her mouth, waiting for Song Xiuyan to tear off the fish and stuff it in her mouth.
"It's so delicious, it's much better than stewing in a pot." Rodin praised.
Qin Xiaoyu came out with a small quilt holding Guoguo, looked at the white broth tumbling in the hanging pot, and said strangely: "Where did the meat come from?" ”
Song Xiuyan pointed at Luo Zhan: "Big brother came through Yang in a hundred steps." ”
