Chapter 431: Sending Off
Wu Dai shrugged and said, "It's okay here." The main thing is that you are not in good health, otherwise you can take me up the mountain. ”
This place is different from the border pass, and it is also different from the capital, even in winter, the four fields are all green.
It was late autumn, the climate was a little dry and cool, and there was a lot of autumn rain. But the sun is always warm in the south. Except in the morning and evening, the climate here is quite pleasant.
After Wu Dai confirmed that Meng Ji was completely fine, she had been yearning for the small mountains on the south side of Xintang Village.
In the shadows of the verdant trees, there seem to be many secrets. She was desperate to go on an adventure, to see things she had never seen before.
It's a pity that they didn't come at the right time, just when Meng Ge fell ill.
Meng Ge looked at the mountains and persuaded: "The climate in the south is good, but the prey is not as fat as in the north, and there are not many large animals. If you really want to go into the mountains, you will be scared down by those little insects and snakes. ”
The forests in the south are full of miasma, and there are a lot of poisons. Especially those large and small vipers and spiders.
When it came to snakes and insects, Wu Dai, who was very aggressive, was obviously poked in the sore foot, shivered, and looked around reflexively.
Seeing this, Meng Ge told her about the flying leech and the man-eating caterpillar, which directly frightened her into a white smile.
"You hate it, you still say it when you know I'm afraid of those things. Those leeches are so powerful, why haven't you been sucked dry when you entered the mountain? And those caterpillars you mentioned, do they really exist?" Wu Dai shrunk her neck in fright, far away from those big trees or small potholes.
Meng Ge laughed and explained, "Flying leeches can't fly, but they do lie high and wait for living creatures to appear in their realm before falling on them. That kind of leech, living in the hot and humid dense forest, I haven't heard that we have such a thing in Qi Song, so I don't think it will cause a disaster. ”
"As for the man-eating caterpillar, that is, it is a rumor, I have not seen it so far. Think about it, there is such a caterpillar pit in the pine forest, what do they usually rely on to survive? And then the caterpillar doesn't live long. But those wasps and yellow honey bees can really sting people to death. The last thing we lack in the south is those honeycombs. If you accidentally fall into the honeycomb, it's ......."
This is not Mengo's alarmism. Many of the honeycombs in the south are underground. Hide in the grass. If a buffalo of thousands of pounds accidentally falls into it, it can't be saved.
The reason why Meng Ge said this was just that he hoped that Wu Dai would not act recklessly and go up the mountain on a whim one day.
Danger was everywhere in the woods to the south, and she couldn't afford that.
General Wu is currently such a precious girl.
After Wu Dai heard this, she was immersed in horror for a long time. At the end, she summed up this sentence: "Poor mountains and bad waters not only have a lot of people, but also a lot of poison." ”
Shi Qingfeng listened quietly to Meng Ge's flickering on the side, falling into deep thought. Recently, he encountered a case in which someone in the village went into the mountains to hunt for three days and did not return, but when he was found by the villagers, he had already become a human worker.
He asked the people below to investigate the scene, but they didn't find anything suspicious.
However, some of them were bitten by leeches for no reason.
Now that he heard such an example here in Mengo, he felt that he should go back and let people pay attention to the things in that area.
I'm afraid the only way to deal with leeches is to burn them.
This time, he just came to persuade Meng Ji to go to the county and ask Old Imperial Doctor Lin to give him a few injections, so that he would have less headaches when he recalled the past.
Listening to the old imperial doctor Lin, the doctor who gave the needle to Meng Ji's head at that time was also a little capable, otherwise Meng Ji would most likely be pierced into a fool.
As soon as he thought of that possibility, Meng Ge became angry and hated General Meng.
If Meng Ji had become a fool, General Meng would have thrown him away.
An old man who is desperate to find a successor cannot put his superfluous thoughts on fools. What's more, Meng Ji is still the son of an abandoned son who was kicked out of the Meng family.
"I can't imagine that he is such an unkind person, and it is no wonder that he will have such children and grandchildren. I think that the Meng family will be lonely in the future. Meng Ji, I must not let him stay in the Meng family. The more Meng Ge thought about it, the more angry he became, and secretly made up his mind.
Meng Ji was silently admiring the scenery on the side, and his heart was chaotic. He was holding on to the fortress in his heart. But he seems to be getting more and more unable to hold on.
It turned out that his great-grandfather, who had always been regarded as heavenly, was like that...
He didn't dare to think about it, he didn't want the hero in his heart to become hateful. He rejected Shi Qingfeng's proposal.
"I was just over two years old at the time, so how many memories can I have. Besides, children are forgetful, maybe I just forgot the past. As for the symptoms on the head, it should be the sequelae of illness when I was a child, and my great-grandfather invited someone to treat it. Meng Ji desperately made excuses.
Shi Qingfeng was about to persuade him again, so Meng Ge shook his head at him.
Some things are better when they are taken as they are, and it will only backfire if they are rushed.
She won't force Meng Ji, if he finally chooses the Meng family and chooses General Meng, then she can only think that Meng Jin really drowned in the river bay back then.
Meng Lang and his wife have passed away, in addition to the identity of the eldest sister, what qualifications does she have to compete with the people of the Meng family for a person who is reluctant to go home.
Meng Ji cautiously glanced at Meng Ge, and found that Meng Ge was a little lonely, a little helpless, and a little depressed.
She seemed to be holding back something, expecting something.
Meng Ji couldn't bear to look at it anymore, just as if he didn't know anything and didn't care about anything. He needs a buffer now, and he needs to think about what to do next.
To be honest, he was very afraid, afraid that the truth would be so hurtful and so unacceptable.
Meng Ji's evasion made Meng Ge sad. But she was also relieved.
Meng Lang values love and righteousness, and he wants to come to Meng Ji the same. This is the merit of their father and son, and they should be proud.
I only hope that Meng Ji can make the right decision after understanding the facts.
She does not object to Meng Ji giving General Meng Lao a pension, but she will not forgive General Meng, nor will she accept all the apologies and conditions of General Meng.
Since he couldn't say that he could move Meng Ji, he also brought it if he wanted to bring it, so Shi Qingfeng was in a hurry to go back.
As the prefect of a state, the burden on his body is naturally not light, and he has no extra time to travel in the mountains and rivers. Every time he came to Meng Ge under the pretext, he was very empty-hearted.
Sending Shi Qingfeng away, Meng Ge knew that Meng Ji and they would not stay longer.
Meng Ji was in a hurry to go back to investigate the truth, while Wu Dai had been away from home for a long time and had to go back.
Meng Ge didn't want these people to stay here longer. Winter is coming in a blink of an eye, and the Spring Festival is coming, and the wanderers who are out of the country should go home for reunion.
Anyway, she arranged spring planting after the New Year, and she would also bring Meng Mao to Beijing, and then we would get together again.
Three days later, Meng Ji and Wu Daizhen returned to the capital with their burdens. As the host, Meng Ge didn't prepare anything good.
She just found a reliable person, escorted the two of them back, and asked Xiao Jia and a few people to clean up those who designed them.
When Meng Ji and the others left, Xiao Jia and the others had just come back complacently.
