Chapter 303: My Brother Is Out of Shape
The mountains and forests are dense, and after a short walk on the path chosen by the boy, I found that it was much more difficult than the one I pointed out!
He broke off a branch from a tree beside the path.
When you encounter a place with a lot of weeds, so many that you have to block the road, use the branches in your hand to pull away!
I thought to myself, this person is just a twist.
He listened to my advice at the beginning, maybe he would soon see the village after walking a little bit on the mountain road!
It's not like now, where you go is a head, and you can't see the house.
Don't expect to meet people on the road! Not even a personal shadow!
As far as the eye can see, there are still dense mountains and forests, and there is no end in sight.
The boy carried me through the woods, and a few leaves hung from my hair, and I reached out and took them off and threw them away.
When I woke up from the chariot after being kidnapped on the edge of the cliff, the most I saw were mountains, rolling mountains, green mountains.
The forest scenery receded, and the young man's footsteps kept walking through the mountains and forests.
The mountain breeze is a little cold, but the air in the mountains is also exceptionally fresh, take a deep breath, and there is a feeling of relaxation.
It's hard for me to be in such a remote mountain forest, but I feel a little comfortable at the moment.
It is a rare feeling of physical and mental relaxation.
I've seen Sealand's map, and I've heard it mentioned to me on the boat.
Sealand is not a small area, stretching from south to north.
The southernmost and northernmost points are simply different places.
The southern part of Sealand is warm and rainy, but the northern part is cold and dry.
This area is far from the national capital. It doesn't reach the north-eastern border of Sealand, so the winter weather is not cold enough to freeze, and the mountains are not covered with snow.
Calculate the time from the hijacking of the ship to the present. Time passed before I knew it.
I think that the senior brother must be in Suzhou City right now.
If I guessed correctly, he couldn't be idle as soon as he arrived in Suzhou, and there were people in Suzhou City that he had arranged a long time ago.
My brother didn't tell me, but he still revealed some inside information when he spoke.
He and I knew all this by heart, and he knew the reason for my inquiry.
In order to get a little more idea of the situation along the way. I have heard from the side, and I have a preliminary understanding of the situation in Suzhou City.
I heard that even the place to live is arranged, waiting for the ship to dock. He should go straight to that place.
The possibility that the senior brother would directly track down this group of black-clothed people was not as likely as it was for him to land in Suzhou first.
As soon as I entered the city and settled down, my senior brother would definitely send people to find my traces, but he would never have imagined that I was still in the mountains far away from Suzhou.
To say distance. It's closer to the cliff where it was kidnapped.
Walk through an area where shrubs are overgrown. The road slowly got a little better.
"Xiaoling, do you think it?" The boy asked me in a low voice.
"Okay, even if you're on the right track." I replied casually, I don't want to argue with such a stubborn person, it's not interesting.
After walking for about half an hour, there was a sudden sound of footsteps on the mountain road.
The boy looked up in the direction the voice had come from.
At the same moment, I heard it on his back, and the two of them looked at each other.
Walking slowly in the distance was a mountain man dressed as a hunter.
I can finally see people! I'm a little excited.
The man was about thirty years old. He is tall and carries a crossbow. At first glance, it looks like a person who hunts in the mountains all year round.
It's still a long way off, but we've all seen it!
"Great!" I could clearly see that the man was carrying something on his back, and I guessed it was prey caught in the mountains.
Is it a hare or a roe deer, or a pheasant?
All of a sudden, I had a scene in my head of cooking on a fire, hot soup, stew, rice, it was so good!
"Come over and ask!" I urged the one who carried me.
Someone finally came, why did he hesitate, was he worried?
At the same time, Orion also found the two of us, standing still.
There was a stalemate on both sides, but the young man walked over with me first, walked up to him and said, "Uncle, where are the mountain people living in this area?" “
A look of wariness flashed in Orion's eyes, and he didn't look like he was getting along.
I have to talk to people. "I took my little brother to Suzhou City in the north, originally to seek refuge with relatives, but I met robbers on the way, the carriage was robbed, and everything I was carrying was robbed by them."
The young man paused, and said earnestly: "My brother and I walked in the mountains for a while, and I lost my way when I couldn't find the direction. ”
"We are not familiar with the land, and we have been in the mountains for two days."
The young man said quite fluently: "I have walked a lot of places, all of them are mountains and forests, and I have not seen the village!" “
I slipped down from the boy's back, half of my body hid behind him, and looked at the hunter with my head a little timid, and my hand tugged at the corner of the boy's clothes.
He's so slippery, I'm going to have to cooperate with him!
Orion looked at the two of us with inquiring eyes.
He had sharp eyes, the eyes of a hunter in my imagination, and at first glance he was a shrewd man.
I don't know why, but I looked at this person's face and felt a little weird, especially his eyes didn't look very comfortable.
Could it be that there is too much hunting, so there are such eyes?! I think about yes.
Orion's gaze first looked at the boy, then lingered on my face for a few more moments, a strange smile on his face.
I didn't like his gaze, and felt awkward in my heart, and Orion looked at me and turned to the cloth that covered the boy's face. "What's up with your face?" Orion spoke with a slight accent, but fortunately he could still understand it.
I knew it!
Why didn't that guy tear it off, he had to cover it all day, it was really cumbersome. "Uncle, you don't know. My brother has a big scar on his face! “
I said to the hunter with a bitter face: "Brother, he was naughty when he was a child, and he went to climb trees. ”
"As a result, he fell and broke on the big rock!"
I explained to Orion: "He was too badly injured, and when he is cured, he will be out of shape!" "Brother, he has to cover it with a cloth when he goes out. Don't frighten anyone! “
The boy didn't explain immediately, so I hurriedly helped him explain.
As early as when I came out of the cave, this was the agreement I made with him, and when I met the mountain people, I would explain it to him.
I know that this young master is willing to put down his temper and say the first few words to others, which is already a rare thing!
As I spoke, I looked up at the boy. He also looked down at me, with obvious anger in his eyes.
I don't know what I said a long time ago, what kind of anger he has. Regardless of him, I'll complete the task anyway!
The boy reached out and grabbed my hand at the corner of his coat and looked at me menacingly.
He turned his head to look at Orion and said, "Uncle, can you tell us." Where do you want to go to be the village where the mountain people live? ”
He didn't ask the hunter to take him in?
A flash of doubt crossed my mind. Could it be that he feels the same way as I do?
I felt that the Orion looked a little strange in some places, and the unsettling feeling of eye contact.
I thought to myself, his hand was being held like this.
Just by looking at this guy being able to run so fast on my back, you can know how strong he is.
He grabbed my hand with so much force that I didn't dare to say more or break free, for fear of showing my horse's feet, so I had to grin at the hunter.
From the perspective of a bystander, this picture is so beautiful that I can't think about it!
Orion's gaze flickered over me and the boy again. I saw that he didn't look completely convinced, and I was worried that he would refuse. Unexpectedly, his next sentence was, "Okay." ”
A simple word, the representative agreed.
However, Orion then added: "The village is still far from here, and you have to climb a mountain to walk there, and you can't walk it for half a day, and it's even slower if it rains heavily." ”
"You two are going now, and you probably won't be able to get there until dark."
Orion looked at the two of us with an evaluative gaze and said in a light tone.
What the? I was stunned!
I regret it so much, I should have insisted on my point of view if I knew I should have done so.
It was a mistake to leave from the cave, I should have stayed there and waited two days before leaving.
You can only eat grilled fish, but when the weather clears, you may be able to find some other ingredients.
There used to be a wasteland in the waterhole near the cave, where it is likely to find some wild fruit or what I call mountain mushrooms.
It's all to blame on that guy, if you have to persuade me to leave, and blame me for my soft ears, it's good now, I can't walk after dark, I'm drunk when I think about it!
Seeing our reactions, Orion paused, "But my place of residence is not far from here. ”
"You two brothers may come to my house for a while, and I am alone, and there are several rooms, and it is very empty."
I looked at the boy and was stunned, I didn't expect the other party to say that.
The next moment, I happily opened my mouth first: "Thank you, uncle." ”
After some conversation, the hunter said, "I am going to hunt in the mountains now, and you two will follow this path to the mountain road that turns in front of you." “
He stretched out his hand and gestured: "You can see where I live in the woods, it's easy to find." "You mean you don't take us there, let us find it ourselves?" I hesitated, but the boy looked at the uncle and didn't speak.
He had been looking at the hunter, not knowing what was going on in his mind. "It's easy to find, you don't need to be brought by anyone." Orion smiled at me, but he looked much more gentle.
In the first impression, this person's appearance was a little fierce, but now he is a little kinder because of his smile. "Thank you." The boy saluted him, dragged me and said, "Brother, let's go." “
After walking some distance along the mountain path, I looked back and saw that the hunter was long gone.
As he said, we have to take care of hunting, and we don't have time to help us lead the way. "Hey, you say, is he so relieved?" I wondered.
As he spoke, the young man's footsteps stopped, and his hand was still holding mine. "You let go! Why so much strength. I broke free in annoyance.
Looking at the young man, I said unhappily: "Why are you angry about nothing?" "It's just inexplicable, what did I do wrong and make you angry?"
A big man, it really opened my eyes, how can he be the same as a child, and he will be angry when he says he is angry.
It wasn't good before, how could it change face so quickly, it was not more reliable than the weather in the mountains. "I also asked why I was angry! Just what you just said! The boy stared at me and said, "Don't you think about it?" "Don't you have an agreement with me?" When I meet the mountain people, I'll open my mouth to help you explain, where did I say something wrong! “
I looked at him in confusion, confused, and explained, what kind of trouble he was doing! "Think for yourself!" The boy threw down a sentence arrogantly, and seemed to be even angrier than I was.
After taking a few steps forward, I said behind him: "If you don't speak clearly, you can sulk by yourself!" You're getting angry until it's dark! “
When the young man heard this, he looked at me viciously and said, "Who told you that if you have a scar on your face, you will break your face?!" ”
Ahh
I wondered what the hell this guy was mad about, and now he meant
I was speechless, looked at him with wide eyes, and finally couldn't hold back my laughter: "Okay, okay, I said it wrong, big brother, you didn't break your appearance, even if your face is full of scars, it won't damage your handsome appearance!" ”
"I apologize to you."
I couldn't stop laughing, and turned my head so that he wouldn't see it and get angry, and I didn't want to mess with this person again. "Okay, I'll apologize to you seriously, don't slander your appearance, okay?"
The expression on the young man's face softened, and he approached me and said, "Don't you want to leave?" “
I followed him, and the more I thought about it, the funnier it became.
I muttered in a low voice: "I knew that when I was a child, I fell on the side of the pit and knocked on a stone, and said that I fell from a tree, I was very kind." ”
The boy pulled away from me, and the jade tree that walked forward with his hands in front of the wind.
Seeing that I was lagging behind, he turned his head to look at me and said angrily, "Xiaoling, what are you muttering?" ”
I took a few steps forward, walked up to him, looked up and smiled, "Hey, do you really have a scar on your face?" ”
Speaking of which, I changed my expression and said, "If that's the case, I'm really sorry for you, I haven't seen your face, I'm saying it according to what I imagined." ”
"Besides, you hinted at me earlier."
The young man looked at me coldly and said, "Where is the master as unbearable as you say, what kind of appearance is broken!" ”
"Okay, I won't quarrel with you, look ahead, isn't that the house?"
My eyes lit up, and in the woods at the turn, I saw a hut that the hunter had spoken.
"It should be!" I made eye contact with him, and we were both very happy.
"Let's go."
"Xiaoling, do you still want me to carry it?" The teenager asked.
"Who wants you to carry it, I can go." I looked at him in surprise, I didn't expect him to ask me that after making a fuss.
I couldn't help but look down and think that this guy was really awkward, with a lot of minor problems and a bit of personality problems, but he was always a good person. (To be continued......)
