Chapter 47: Reality and Ideals
The head sheep was the strongest in the flock, and even though he had hollowed out his entrails, he still exceeded Dekang's expectations. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He panted and ran out of the col with the head sheep on his shoulder, looking to the west, what year and month did he have to run!
It is unthinkable to leave behind the delicious taste of survival, and Dekang gritted his teeth and ran over the jutting foot of the mountain, turning north into a dreamland of cold winds and snowflakes.
Dekang rested the sheep's head on his left shoulder to resist the blow of the snowdrops, and ran in this way with his head down for more than a hundred steps, and finally found a large rock that stood out, and he went around the back of the rock and threw the head sheep on the sand.
Circle around the big rock, and finally choose the north side of it as the place to bury the head sheep, this area of snow is relatively thick, pull away a position of snow, Dekang pulled out the sword and slashed a few circles on the sand to loosen the frozen sand, and then pulled it again for a while, and a shallow pit was done.
Dekang flipped the goat's head and leaned his feet against the big rock, then stood at his side, grabbed the hilt of his sword with his front paws, stabbed it through the goat's buttocks, and slashed hard at his neck. Although the sword was extremely sharp, it was difficult for Dekang to use strength in the direction where he was standing, and he was afraid of cutting the part, so he had to cross it little by little, and after a while, he finally cut the head sheep into two large pieces.
Dekang buried half of it in the pit, pulled up the sand and snow, and carried the remaining half with his sword on his back and rushed out of the dream world with his head down.
The whole head sheep will definitely not be able to resist back, so resist half of it first, and then go back to appease and appease Baoyue before carrying it.
Burying that half of the antelope meat here was what Dekang thought of when he felt very heavy in the eastern col, and no matter how powerful and shrewd the hunter was, he would not come to this ghost place to search for prey, and the fat antelope meat would obediently wait for his return.
Hey, hey, hey...
Carrying only half of the delicious food, as long as he stopped halfway through and nibbled on a few mouthfuls of snow to moisten his throat, he could run back to the cave in one go, and he really didn't dare to let Baoyue wait too long, especially if it might cause the flying eagle to be alert.
When I ran to the great stream where I had rested, the sky was getting dark, and night was coming.
Of course, carrying delicious food is not as easy as running empty, Dekang estimates that he will have to rest once after running for a while, and he will probably be able to reach the cave before the turn of night and day, and Baoyue should be sleeping at that time.
I found a leeward depression and threw down half of the head sheep, gnawed a few mouthfuls of snow, the cold snow water slid through the throat and then flowed into the stomach, the fiery body was like an injection of sweet spring, so that Dekang felt comfortable, and after stretching his long lazy waist on the ground with his forelimbs, he lay on the antelope fur to rest for a while.
In the blink of an eye, the sky completely darkened, and the four fields escaped into a bleak darkness, and the northern mountains occasionally emitted a little snow reflection, like hell phosphorus fire, reminding every character passing by that this is a cold world.
The cold wind blew even harder, and his back began to feel a little chilly, Dekang got up and picked up the delicious food and continued to head west, feeling a little tired and resting for a while, and finally ran to Lake Belik in the middle of the night.
Maybe it's because of the night road, there are no distractions along the way, and I run unconsciously, and the speed is not lazy.
In Hudong, Dekang stretched his neck and inhaled carefully, closing his eyes to carefully discern whether there was an abnormal smell in the air.
Blessed by the moon god, everything should be normal and safe ahead.
Dekang rushed towards the cave with a puff of smoke.
Running close to the mouth of the cave, and seeing that there were only a few shallow traces on the mouth, Dekang's heart was completely relieved. He threw down the delicacy he was carrying and ran towards the cave.
The head and shoulders were stretched into the cave, and the momentum of the body was once again pulled by the divine sword stuck in the mouth of the cave, and it was an embarrassing look of the head and butt being exposed inside.
Carrying the sword on his back along the way, many times Dekang forgot about its existence, and lowered his head to quickly climb in, but the hilt of the sword would not bow his head, fortunately Baoyue was not beside him, otherwise the little cub would have to be scared again.
The noise at the entrance of the cave alarmed Baoyue, who was sleeping lightly at the bottom of the cave, and she asked in a daze, "Who... Yes... Second brother is back? ”
"Second brother is back." Dekang took a half-step back, lowered the hilt of his sword, and said loudly as he crawled.
"Two... Elder brother... It's back. Second brother! Baoyue read a sentence in a daze, and suddenly screamed loudly, and then a small black shadow rushed out and rushed into Dekang's arms.
"Second brother. You're really back. Baoyue arched hard at his chest.
"Go inside and talk." Dekang motioned for Baoyue to go back.
At the bottom of the cave, Dekang squatted on the fur of the tracking dog and hugged Baoyue, looking at her red little face, feeling a little apologetic.
If it weren't for the pride and arrogance of the first two successful hunts, Ben could have prepared the delicious food of this cold winter, and Baoyue could have waited for the coming of summer without worry, and went outside to see the beautiful prairie.
"Second brother. What's wrong with you, does it hurt? Baoyue found the wound on Dekang's head, stepped forward to look at him and asked.
"It doesn't hurt anymore. I met a snow leopard and got into a fight with him. Dekang replied lightly.
"Terrible snow leopard! The result? Baoyue's eyes were about to come out, and she opened her mouth with a look of horror.
"That scoundrel is finished. But he ate the delicious antelope stomach before the second brother killed him. ”
Dekang couldn't describe Baoyue's expression at this time in words: "Second brother killed the snow leopard!" ”
Dekang smiled at her and nodded.
The little cub cheered in Dekang's arms, jumped up and down, and her cheerful demeanor was similar to when she saw Auntie Ah come back from hunting.
Dekang's eyes moistened a little: "Yes, although only one antelope was caught this time, in Baoyue's opinion, if she can kill the snow leopard that even Aunt Ah Da is very taboo and dare not fight with them alone, then the second brother will definitely be able to protect her to grow up smoothly, and no one will dare to provoke them in the future, and they will not be afraid of any villain's provocation." ’
When Baoyue had enough fun, Dekang rubbed her little skull and said, "Baoyue." Wait for the second brother for a while, and I'm going to go out and bury half of the antelope. ”
"Half an antelope?" The little cub stared at Dekang's belly and looked at it, as if it contained the other half.
Dekang smiled and gave her a scalp: "Little cub." The second brother's belly can hold half an antelope, and it is strange if he is not strangled to death. This time he captured a sheep, it was very heavy, and he couldn't carry it back, so the second brother used the sword to cut him into two large pieces, and only carried one piece to run all the way back. ”
"But the second brother has to carry it again." Baoyue asked with a frown.
Dekang gave her a blank look: "Our delicious food can be snatched by other bastards!" Of course, I'll have to carry it back. ”
"But Baoyue doesn't want to be alone in the cave." The little cub cocked his mouth.
Dekang looked into her eyes: "Now we have to work hard in the snow and ice for the deliciousness of the next meal." The second brother assured Baoyue that there would be a day when there would be delicious food waiting for us to taste. ”
"Baoyue, thank you, second brother." The little cub stared straight at Dekang, his little eyes clear and bright.
Crawl out of the cave and take out the sword to cut off the front leg of the head sheep and put it into the cave, Baoyue, who was watching the excitement at the entrance of the cave, turned around and leaned on the antelope leg and sniffed hard, Dekang picked up the remaining delicacy and ran towards the west.
Coming to the place where the rock mutton was originally buried, Dekang dropped half of the antelope and picked up the snow in place, then used the sword to draw a few circles, pulled away a thin layer of sand, and then took the delicacy into the shallow pit, and then pulled back the sand and snow, and finally swept away all traces with his tail.
After finishing it, he returned to the mouth of the cave to take a look, and found that Baoyue stopped eating after taking a few small bites, and was stretching out his little head and waiting for him to come back.
"Baoyue. Why don't you eat it? ”
Baoyue patted her stomach and said, "Baoyue is not hungry, she just wants to taste the taste of the head sheep." ”
Dekang patted her little brain: "Second brother saw that you couldn't wait, and thought that Baoyue was hungry." ”
Climbed into the cave and took off the sword and put it on the edge of the passage, lying on the fur of the tracking dog, there was a feeling of warmth, Dekang's eyelids began to droop, his limbs and bones began to ache, and the strength of his body seemed to be drained all of a sudden, and his body didn't want to move, he barely glanced at Baoyue, and fell asleep with his head tilted.
In the haze, I felt that there was a rumbling thing on my stomach moving around, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that it was Baoyue who was climbing up and down there to play, and the little cub must be bored, and he was embarrassed to wake up the second brother directly, so he used his stomach as a slide.
'Brother is not a dead pig, how can he not wake up.' ’
Lifting his right foreleg to pull the little cub down, Dekang sat up against the wall of the cave, looking at the snow at the corner, it was estimated that the sun was shining outside, but Dekang felt that he had only slept for a few breaths.
"Second brother... Baoyue drilled into Dekang's arms.
"Did the second brother practice after he went out?"
Baoyue nodded hurriedly, and said a lot of words: "During the day, Baoyue only went to the entrance of the cave to see it once, and then ate the antelope meat left by the second brother into the small belly, and after eating, Baoyue began to practice after squinting for a while, second brother, Baoyue learned to act upright." ”
"Will you stand up?" It will be Dekang's turn to widen his eyes. Humans don't practice upright movement so quickly, what kind of trick do the little cubs do.
Seeing Dekang's suspicion, Baoyue pouted and said, "Second brother... Baoyue will show you. ”
After speaking, she got up and rubbed on the cave wall, turned her head to look at Dekang, grinned, her upper limbs relaxed, her whole body slowly slid down to the left side against the cave wall, and when her forelimbs landed, she took a step to the left side and lay on the cave wall again, turned her head and smiled at him, and then slid down. After doing this a few times, Baoyue turned around and looked up at Dekang, her little eyes full of anticipation.
The little cub used the practice of upright movement as a ramp to slide and play, and Dekang couldn't cry or laugh, but looking at the little guy with an expectant face, he was embarrassed to ruin her interest.
Dekang smiled at her and was about to speak, his eyes rolled a few times, and he walked to her side and said, "Baoyue has done a good job, the second brother will help you change it again to ensure that Baoyue does better." ”
"Really! The second brother quickly teaches Baoyue," the little cub jumped with his tail wagged.
"Still climbing the cave wall, the second brother came to call Baoyue."
Once she was on her stomach, Dekang grabbed her left upper limb and stretched out a small head to the left, then grabbed her left lower limb and extended a small head to the left.
Baoyue didn't react when she moved her upper limbs, but when she moved her left lower limbs, her body stiffened significantly, and her right lower limbs began to shake, Dekang ignored her reactions, and then moved her right lower limbs and right upper limbs in turn.
After helping her do this set of movements, Baoyue let out a long breath, and her body began to relax.
"Baoyue. How does it feel? ”
"Baoyue's left lower limb didn't feel it at all when he stepped out." Baoyue's voice was full of deflatment.
'Little cub. The first is that if you have a feeling, you are more human than a human. Dekang was secretly amused.
took a breath and encouraged her: "I just started practicing, of course I don't feel it, Baoyue can move over little by little, and when she is proficient, she can move over in one step." As long as he insists on practicing day after night, Baoyue will definitely be able to run on his stomach on the cave wall. ”
"But that's not how the wolves in the picture practice." Baoyue asked, staring into my eyes.
Dekang gave her a scalp: "Little cub." There are no low walls, long poles, or long chains here, so you can only practice like this. ”
Baoyue stuck out her little tongue: "Second brother." How do you practice outside? ”
"Why are you asking this, you can't do it yet, I'll tell you when I finish practicing the second brother just now,"
Baoyue got into Dekang's arms and arched hard, "Second brother." Teach Baoyue. Second brother... Teach. ”
For the little cub's cheating behavior, Dekang can usually only raise his hand to surrender, no way, who calls the brother to be both a big and a mother, and he has to be a heroic and invincible model second brother.
Teach her the trick of holding one of her upper limbs on the big rock to practice, and Baoyue can't wait to try it.
She first lay on her stomach on the wall of the cave, stood firmly, slowly twisted her head and buttocks, so that the chest and abdomen position no longer faced the wall of the cave, and then let go of her left upper limb little by little, and when the left upper limb moved to her chest, her body shook and her head fell on the wall of the cave, and then the whole body fell crooked on the edge of the passage.
Baoyue quickly got up and half-bowed her head and laughed embarrassedly, while sneaking a glance at Dekang.
Dekang couldn't help but smile and walked over and patted her little head: "Baoyue." Only if you have learned what the second brother taught you just now can you practice like this. ”
Baoyue had a bitter face: "But why can the second brother practice this action directly?" ”
"Little cub. The second brother has a strong physique to hold on, and you don't see that the second brother is also tired for most of the day and night. If you don't wait until you grow up, you can practice directly. ”
Baoyue curled her mouth: "No... Want... ”
Dekang crouched at the mouth of the cave and chewed and devoured the fatty antelope meat, while Baoyue shivered and practiced her human movements.
The tender and delicious offal was snatched by the villain, and I didn't enjoy it myself when I went out this time, but I swallowed the delicious food into my stomach at this moment, and the cold wind and snow I experienced and the life-and-death struggle finally got the best reward.
There was still a faint pain on the top of his head, Dekang knew that this was a precursor to wound healing, and it was terrible to be unconscious, so it seemed that he had to rest in the cave for a few days and nights, and then go and carry back the other half of the antelope meat after the head was basically healed, and take it to see if there was any big bargain in the col.
After eating the whole antelope leg, Dekang looked at his bulging belly, burped with satisfaction, pulled the lamb leg bone aside, and continued to lie down at the mouth of the cave to rest.
Baoyue always paid attention to the actions of the second brother, and as soon as she saw that Dekang had finished eating, she immediately ran over; The little cub probably wanted him to accompany her out of the cave to play, but when she saw the wound on Dekang's head, her open little mouth quickly closed and lay on his shoulder obediently.
"Second brother. Are you still in pain? ”
'It doesn't hurt, but it hurts, but it hurts. Dekang took a breath of cold air, bared his teeth and pretended to be uncomfortable: "I don't feel pain if I don't eat food, but it hurts when I eat." ”
Bao Yue lowered her brows with a slightly disappointed expression, and sniffed on his cheek: "Second brother, get better soon." ”
Dekang rubbed her little head: "Baoyue is starting to be sensible." ”
It is not a slack thing to lie at the mouth of the cave and listen to the cold wind blowing in the valley when you are full, thinking of the way out in the future and the responsibility you shoulder, Dekang wants to run out and practice.
After getting the sword, he will speed up his actions, and after entering the summer, he will take him to the Wolf Cave Mountain Range, to appreciate the majesty and vastness of the steppe, to contact and make friends with other wolf tribes, I don't know if they still remember the descendants of the Golden Wolf Khan King, all this is premised on being able to swing the sword in the wilderness, and the encounter with the snow leopard highlights this sense of crisis even more.
Lying there lazily resting, Baoyue couldn't stay still, from the mouth to the bottom of the cave, she didn't know how many times she ran back and forth, and Dekang's head was almost stunned by her.
"Baoyue. Second brother, let's take you out for a walk. Dekang said helplessly.
"Whew... The little cub happily threw himself into his arms.
Dekang first poked out of the cave to check the movement, especially in the foothills of the back, where the hateful eagles might search and spy on themselves.
Stared for a while, there was nothing suspicious, and he was about to bow his head to beckon Baoyue to come out, when the corner of his eye saw a small black dot running from the southwest school, Dekang slowly turned his head and swept over, the small black dot was getting closer and closer, it turned out to be the little fat rabbit that he loved and hated.
The sample probably went out to forage for food, and it seems that the harvest is good with a bulging belly, and in the Haxia River Valley, as long as you are clever enough and add some luck, it is not a problem to fill your stomach.
Since the little rabbits are safe and sound, there must be nothing wrong outside, and Dekang ran out of the cave with Baoyue.
