Chapter 15 Fishing for Hunger

The next day, after dawn, they went to the river to simply wash their faces. It's not easy to go far, so I stayed where I was, and continued to wait for the people from Black Wind Village to come out.

There is no need to run for their lives, and the people who sit in the shade of the trees to enjoy the shade are screaming in their stomachs when they are helpless.

Sanpi and Du Xiaosan looked at Wang Baoshan with blank eyes, wanting him to cook some millet porridge to drink.

Wang Baoshan took out the empty rice bag and opened it to show them, it was empty, and there was half a grain of rice, which was also difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

But hungry, there was no way, so I had to go to the river to fetch a pot of river water and soak the rice bags in the pot. He went to find some wild vegetables again, washed them, and put them in a pot to cook together. In general, the rice bag has been filled with millet, and there is a little taste of millet, which is boiled in a pot with wild vegetables, and the vegetable soup also has the taste of rice.

After the vegetable soup was cooked, Wang Baoshan took out the rice bag, took it to the river to wash it, and hung it on a branch not far away to dry. It's over, beckoning everyone to eat wild vegetable soup.

Luo Ying saw him do this, and said that he was determined not to eat the soup, he would rather be hungry.

Wang Baoshan saw that he refused to eat it, and persuaded him: "Okay, eat some, this wild vegetable soup still has a bit of millet taste." ”

Luo Ying was unmoved and went to the river, apparently wanting to catch fish in the river.

"Leave him alone, what's the matter..."Sanpi saw that Luo Ying didn't eat, and pulled Wang Baoshan's sleeve. He didn't dislike it, and ate three bowls in a row.

Du Xiaosan also ate two big bowls, and after eating, he said with some concern: "It's almost noon, and I haven't seen half a person, are we waiting in the wrong place?"

"Otherwise, I'll ask the Luo family brothers later, and we'll go look elsewhere. Wang Baoshan ate wild vegetables, and said while eating, at the end, he took a sip of vegetable soup.

"Ask him what to do, we won't find it ourselves!" Sanpi was a little reluctant to agree with Wang Baoshan's proposal, and wanted to get rid of Luo Ying. After he finished speaking, he saw that there was still a little soup left in the pot, so he asked Du Xiaosan to fish, and said, "Third brother, there is still a little, you drink it quickly." ”

Wang Baoshan saw him say this, shook his head, and didn't blame him, only said: "The people who come together should always have someone to take care of." Now the millet is gone, and even wild vegetables are hard to find, just now I have been looking for a long time to find a little bit. Seeing that none of the people in Heifeng Village have come out, what can I do if I wait like this?"

Sanpi and Du Xiaosan, they didn't know what to say for a while, and they couldn't think of a good way.

This man didn't eat a meal, he was really hungry. Wang Baoshan saw that it was not possible to go on like this, so he had to think of a way to solve the problem of hunger in his stomach, otherwise it would be useless to say anything else. He saw Luo Ying go to the river to catch fish, so he took the opportunity to wash the pot and wanted to learn how to catch fish from him.

Luo Ying was quite enthusiastic about this, as if he had changed someone, and immediately taught him how to find the traces of fish and how to catch fish... I taught Wang Baoshan what I knew, and carefully explained the operation methods and precautions. Sometimes he also gave him hands-on guidance, taking him along the river, looking for areas with dense aquatic plants and looking for fish tracks.

Wang Baoshan held back the surprise in his heart, humbly asked for advice, and listened carefully to Luo Ying's explanation. If you don't understand something, you are not ashamed to ask, and she is humble in her style of studying, which makes Luo Ying very satisfied, and the words gradually increase. Taking advantage of the interest, he told Wang Baoshan a lot of things, such as various fish habits and different fishing methods. As soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't keep his mouth shut, and he talked endlessly, and he took the trouble to explain for most of the day.

When a half-inch crucian carp was picked up by Wang Baoshan with a simple harpoon made by Luo Ying, he cried out excitedly.

"Well, Brother Wang learns so fast..."Luo Ying had already hit a silver carp more than an inch long at this time, and turned to Wang Baoshan and nodded in appreciation.

Wang Baoshan held the simple harpoon, took off the crucian carp, handed it to Du Xiaosan, who ran over to see, and asked him to take it and roast it.

After Du Xiaosan took it, he was a little overwhelmed. The crucian carp, which was struggling and jumping, just arrived in his hands, and one of them fell to the ground without holding it steadily. Seeing the crucian carp, struggling and about to jump into the river, Sanpi on the side, with his hands and eyes, stepped on the crucian carp that was not yet dead.

"Third brother, be careful, this is a fish that the eldest brother finally caught, if it jumps into the river, the eldest brother will work hard for us in vain, and he will have to go hungry again after a while..."

Du Xiaosan raised his hand ashamedly and smiled at him. It's no wonder that he couldn't catch the crucian carp, a scholar, he has eaten a lot of fish, but he is alive, and it is the first time he touches it, and it is strange that he does not miss it.

Wang Baoshan didn't care about them, and continued to follow Luo Ying's method, looking for traces of the fish.

After a while, I found another grass carp, which was not big, just the size of a palm.

Towards noon, he picked a total of four fish. When he found a tree branch, killed and washed four different kinds of fish, and picked them up to roast, he found that Luo Ying had already eaten the roasted silver carp.

He said, "Brother Luo, you're pretty fast!"

Luo Ying ate the fish and didn't answer him, but his face was no longer as cold as before, and he smiled at Wang Baoshan.

Sanpi and Du Xiaosan, who have been following Wang Baoshan, couldn't wait for a long time, and immediately grilled the fish.

The fish in this river are really soft and have very thick swim bladders. After a few times of roasting on the fire, there are bursts of meat aroma, which makes people smell and can't help but tumble and drool.

"Who?"

Just as they were swallowing their saliva and were about to be roasted and browned, they were feasting on a full meal when a loud roar suddenly erupted from the woods behind them, and they were all startled.

Then, a group of people walked briskly.

The branch that Wang Baoshan was holding in his hand was almost frightened and came out of his hand.

He looked at the group of people who came over in horror, and saw that each of them was dressed in a black wrapping suit, with a black turban wrapped around their heads, and black cloud boots on their feet, all black from head to toe.

As soon as they stood still, their right hand naturally rested on the handle of the saber, apparently due to the physical habits developed by a long period of practice.

They didn't say anything, they just opened their eyes angrily, staring at Wang Baoshan and the four of them viciously. In those murderous eyes, there was a knife-like edge, and I could only see the hairs on their bodies standing upright, as if they were in pain.

The person at the head is tall and mighty. The beard that covers half of the face is black and thick, like a black cloth, making it difficult to see the complete face. But this did not prevent his eyes, which were more awe-inspiring than anyone else, like a sharp knife, and the cold light reflected a compelling power.

"Just this look can split a person in half!" Wang Baoshan thought in his heart, he was stared at by these eyes, his heart was like ashes, and he couldn't resist at all in his heart.

If eyes can kill, then the people in the world may have died a long time ago. Of course, no matter how vicious the gaze is, it can't hurt others, and it can only shock other people's minds when they look at people, so that others can't have the slightest resistance in their hearts.

Wang Baoshan was stared at by the group of people who suddenly rushed by, and his heart was terrified, and he didn't dare to come out.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" the big man at the head looked at the four ragged people in front of him, no different from a flower child who asked for food, and asked coldly.

Just when Wang Baoshan and the three of them were still panicking, Luo Ying on the side suddenly walked over, hugged his fist at the big man, and asked carefully: "Dare to ask the seniors, is it the hand knife Tai Sui who sits on the fifth chair in Heifengzhuang - Li Jin, senior Li?"

"Boy, do you know me, who are you?" The big man was Li Jin, who was too old with a trumpet hand knife, and he was obviously a little surprised when he looked at Luo Ying, a young man dressed as a hunter in front of him.

Luo Ying stepped forward and bowed and said, "The younger generation's name is Luo Ying, and his family is in the mountains forty miles west of the city, and he and my father hunt there for a living. ”

"You are the son of the Luo family's brothers!" Li Jin seemed to know his father, and his tone softened a lot, and asked him kindly.

"We want to enter the village, I don't know Senior Li, are you willing to take it in?" After Luo Ying finished speaking, he glanced at Wang Baoshan, who was stunned and at a loss.

"So what's the matter, since you are here now, it must be your father's will. Li Jin smiled when he heard this, with a knowing expression.

"Then thank you seniors..."Luo Ying bowed to Li Jin again and hurriedly thanked him.

"The three of them, are they also with you?" Li Jin raised his eyelids and looked at Wang Baoshan and the others.

Luo Ying looked at Wang Baoshan, hesitated for a while, and nodded, which can be regarded as acquiescence.

"Well, it's quite like your father. Luo Ying's hesitation, where could he escape Li Jin's eyes, and he didn't say much, he stepped forward and snatched the grilled fish in Sanpi's hand, and took a bite of it.

"Not bad... Tastes good. It's a pity that I came out so tightly that I forgot to bring wine..."He said with relish as he ate, and Sanpi stood on the spot in shock, and his jaw almost fell to the ground.

Luo Ying, who has always been cold, couldn't help but smile when he saw it, and said, "Senior Li, how did you find out about us?"

Li Jin had a mouth full of fish oil, glanced at Luo Ying, and said, "What's so difficult about this, I see that there is white smoke rising into the sky here, and it is expected that someone must be here." ”

When Luo Ying heard this, he was relieved. It must have been when they grilled the fish, and the oil and moisture fell on the coals, giving rise to a lot of smoke. In this barren mountain and wilderness, it is broad daylight, and it is strange not to be discovered. But when I thought about it, I was shocked, and before I realized it, the other party came over, and I really didn't know it, and I didn't know it.

"It's also a shame that I met Senior Li, if I meet someone else, I'm afraid there will be some trouble. ”

"Hmph, trouble..."Li Jin listened, his face sank, and as soon as he put the grilled fish in his hand, he waved his hand, and suddenly said: "It's tied."

A group of black-clothed men who were watching coldly from the sidelines rushed over like wolves and tied up Wang Baoshan and the four of them with thin and soft hemp ropes.

Luo Ying was also taken aback, what was wrong, why did Li Jin, who had just been kind, suddenly turn his face and didn't recognize anyone. Rao is he has always been calm and calm, and he didn't expect this, so he hurriedly said, "Senior Li, what's going on?"

Li Jin looked at him and sneered, "Don't you want to enter the village? I'll take you there." ”

After saying that, he had the four of them blindfolded with a black cloth, and escorted them away in spite of their resistance.
