Guan Ping's face floated with the embarrassment of being broken and doing "rough" things, and he replied unconvinced: "Not everyone can peel the skin, even when my father is alive, he has to be sent to the town to the butcher to peel the skin clean." ”

"Whoever says that, I'll skin the rabbit." If it's sent to town, what will happen to me? Yun Ying took two steps forward, held back the nausea in his heart, pointed to the rabbit that he wasted and tried to promote himself: "It is best to skin the rabbit while there is still residual warmth on the rabbit, so that you can peel off a whole rabbit skin." ”

"Do you really know?" Guan Ping raised his head slightly, and took a serious look at the little girl who came closer, and the clear and smart eyes on the ordinary big cake face made people involuntarily believe what she said. Put the rabbit and dagger in his hand on the ground, get up and retreat to three feet away, Mr. often says that "men and women are not seven years old", the little girl in front of him is more than seven years old, right?

"Since you said you would cut it, then you come!" Guan Ping motioned for Yun Ying to take over the rest of the work.

"I'll come, I'll come. But let's say okay first, if I can help you skin your rabbit, can you give it to our family for the sake of the neighbors? "I only drank half a bowl of rice porridge for breakfast, Yun Ying was full of fat rabbit meat on the ground at this time, if she saw Guan Ping's tyrannical things again, she would definitely be struck by lightning, and when she lifted the rabbit, her eyes looked left and right, and she couldn't help but gasp. At this time, it is possible to know why Xishantou is regarded as a forbidden place by everyone.

Nettle is a perennial herbaceous plant, the stinging hairs on the branches and leaves are poisonous, and once people get wet, they will be "poisoned" to produce various reactions such as redness, swelling, itching, and pain. Even if it is placed in Yunying's previous life, such a plant is also hated by everyone, not to mention the superstitious Tengyun Dynasty.

The red nettle is most often found around graves, and the superstitious Tengyun Dynasty people believe that the red nettle is haunted by ghosts.

But the direction of walking along Anlan Creek to the West Mountain is densely overgrown with red nettles more than four feet high, and there is no road to the West Mountain as far as the eye can see, let alone a place for scraping rabbit skins.

"What are you looking for?" Guan Ping washed his hands with the stream water, and looked at Yunying as if he was looking for something.

"Find a suitable place, of course, otherwise you think it's easy to skin a rabbit?" Yun Ying gestured and said that she needed a small tree as a shelf, but she didn't have the courage to challenge the terrifying-looking nettle forest at the foot of the West Mountain with her bare hands.

"Follow me." Guan Ping lifted the other unconscious rabbit at his feet, "If you really can skin rabbits like the butchers in the town, I'll give you all the one in your hand." "If Yun Ying doesn't know how to dissect, Guan Ping himself may not be able to get a complete rabbit to take home, so it is better to believe her once.

Guan Ping took Yun Ying around the foot of the mountain near the river, and almost walked half a circle around the foot of the west mountain, which also made Yun Ying see the huge scale of this nettle forest, which was simply breathtaking. About half an hour later, Guan Ping led Yun Ying to a nettle and stood still, "You can enter from here." ”

"Here?" Yun Ying looked left and right, it was still dense with nettles that could not be seen, how could she get in?

At this time, Guan Ping lowered his body and groped in the dry grass pile on the ground for a while, and as he retreated, several nettles almost two feet wide actually moved along with the turf. It turned out that these red nettles were planted on a slate, and the nettles were removed when the slate was removed, and after these strains were another plant with leaves close to nettles.

After the two entered, Guan Ping squatted down again and dragged the stone slab back to its place, turned around to see Yun Ying a little stunned, and couldn't help but threaten and said: "This is the passage that my father found with his life, if you dare to say it, my father will come to you at night." In Tong Sheng Guan Ping's eyes, the people in Lijia Village are illiterate villagers, and what the villagers are most afraid of is these strange things, so scaring this little girl, he doesn't believe that she dares to shout everywhere.

Yun Ying secretly laughed at Guan Ping's careful thoughts, and ignored him at all, at this time, her mind was all on the rabbit in her hand, and no one could make her divert her attention.

After entering the nettle forest and walking about two zhang before really setting foot at the foot of the West Mountain, Yun Ying couldn't help but have an illusion: these nettles seemed to be planted by someone, and the range was only two or three zhang in the outermost part of the West Mountain. Then he shook his head, who would do such a boring thing.

Retracted his gaze, identified the two small trees in front of him that were only a foot wide, looked back at Guan Ping, who was carrying another rabbit with him, and asked as a matter of course, "Is there a rope?" ”

Guan Ping had a firewood knife stuck in his waist, cut two vines from the ground and threw them at her feet: "Is this okay?" ”

The rope is estimated to be a luxury, and Yun Ying will no longer delay time, if it is delayed any longer, the rabbit's corpse will be cold, and there will be no way to get a whole rabbit skin.

Tie the rabbit's hind legs apart to two small trees in an upside-down shape, make a circle at the joints of the two hind legs, separate the skin from the meat, and then pull down the circle.

I used to watch people kill rabbits alive in the vegetable market, and I felt cruel but I didn't have the kind of deep hatred of the defenders, after all, the purpose of feeding rabbits in the market is to become a delicacy on the table, and it is not so serious to turn around and look at the psychological shadow.

However, the phrase "when the book is used, you hate less" is also very appropriate here, and when I did it myself, I realized that I should have opened my eyes and carefully watched how people operated! The person is small and has little strength, and she used all her strength, tired and sweaty, she only took the rabbit skin off the rabbit legs, Yun Ying panted and wiped the sweat with her sleeves, ready to continue working.

Guan Ping, who had already seen the clue on the side, suddenly said: "You get out of the way, I'll try." ”

"You're coming?" Are you here and have my share? Yun Ying had just peeled half of it, and the "rabbit" that could not be given up flew away, and she couldn't help but think in frustration: It would be good to let this person turn his head when he was peeling, but now it's good, the apprentice of the church starved to death of the master.

"Don't worry, I'm Guan Ping, it's hard to chase after me. This rabbit in the tree will be yours later. "The rabbit hanging on the tree is not big, and the weather can't last long, a big rabbit is enough for him and his mother to eat for a few days, and he generously fulfills his promise.

Guan Ping was sent to the town to study by Guan Orion since he was a child, and he didn't say that he was pampered and pampered to be a little young master since he was a child, but he also belonged to the category of food and clothing without worrying about everything; Unexpectedly, after a catastrophe came, he not only fell from the prodigy scholar who was admired by everyone, but even the land purchased by the family in the first two years was sold on the way to treat Guan Orion. Guan Pingniang's Jia family fell into the root of a weak leg and foot, and could only move around the yard by relying on a stool all day long, and the burden of life fell on Guan Ping's weak shoulders.

After Guan Lihu died, Guan Ping relied on his memory to figure out the hunting skills of half the tone, mixed with food and drink in the west mountain, plus the little food left at home, but he also bumped into it until now.

Although Guan Ping is a little scholar, he is also a man, the strength in his hands is not small, and with his quick eyes and hands, it didn't take long for a rabbit to divide his flesh and skin; Thinking that Yun Ying said that he would take advantage of the heat, he was busy catching another hare and was about to start cutting it, Yun Ying hurriedly stopped: "It's better to peel the skin first and then cut it." ”

After Guan Ping peeled the skin, he threw the fur to the side and dealt with the internal organs, Yun Ying asked in surprise, "Don't you use rabbit skins to go to the town to exchange money?" ”

"Money? Going to town? I'm not going. Guan Ping's face, which was originally happy because he had learned a craft, suddenly sank, and he picked up the other intact rabbit and put it in the back basket he carried with him, and turned around and left, without even giving Yun Ying a second look.

"What's going on?" Yun Ying looked at Guan Ping's stubborn and injured back in confusion, and couldn't understand why he was so windy and rainy, he reached out and picked up the rabbit skin and whispered: "You don't just want to cheap me." ”

Looking up at the sky, it was not too late, touching the shriveled belly, looking at the raw rabbit meat that was still bloodshot, Yun Ying had no choice but to find a few large leaves to wrap the rabbit meat and hide it in a hidden place in the stream, and took a small wooden stick that Guan Ping might have forgotten in place with the back basket on his back, and walked inside in the direction of the grass lodging.
