Chapter 14: Before the Farm

The day before the farm is busy.

"Dad, mother, I'm back."

Zhuang Zijie got down from the ox cart and looked at his father and mother who were enjoying the shade under the grape trellis.

When Zhuang Yi and his wife heard their son's voice, they saw that outside the courtyard gate, their son was getting down from the ox cart with a large bag and a small bag.

The couple looked at their son's large bags of things, hurriedly got up, walked quickly to their son's side, and helped him carry his things.

"You're coming back now, what are you doing with so many things?"

Su Huiniang looked at her son suspiciously.

"Mother, let's talk about it later, let's get the things in first, it's so hot this day."

"Well, I'll talk for a while, I'll say for a while, go into the house, look at your thing, why are there so many, you're going to move!"

"Mother, you help your son bring things into the house first. My son went to pour a bowl of water for Lao Yu, who sent me back, and he was still in a hurry to go home! ”

"Okay, you go pour water first! Mother help you get it in. ”

Zhuang Zijie took the package in his hand and went into the house, then went to the kitchen to pour a bowl of cold boiled water, and sent it to Lao Yu, who was driving him.

"Old Yu, drink a bowl of water, it's getting hotter and hotter this day."

"Thank you Zhuang Xiaoxianggong, isn't it, I don't know what this is, this is indeed hotter than in previous years, this tomorrow is busy farming, and our group of little people who watch the sky and eat will suffer even more."

Old Yu Tou was drinking water on the ox cart, looking at the sky, and thinking of tomorrow's farm work, and sighed.

"yes, it's ...... day"

Zhuang Zijie looked thoughtfully at the sky where the sun shone high. The mouth is full of words, as if he wants to say something.

"Xiao Xianggong, this water is also drunk, I will say goodbye first, this is too hot, I have to go back soon, I am not going to pick up work today, and let my cow rest, this tomorrow is a big move."

"Okay, then you should go first, don't be hot when it's late."

"Okay, if you have something next time, you can go to me, you know where I live, Niu'er, let's go home......"

"Got it, old than ......"

Zhuang Zijie looked at the old man who was driving the ox cart farther and farther away, wiped the sweat on his head and turned back to the house.

"Zijie, the person who sent you back is gone!?"

Su Huiniang looked at her son who came in with an empty bowl.

"Gone."

"Mother, why don't you see the eldest sister, the second sister, the third sister, and the younger brother, where have you gone, why are you and your father at home?"

Zhuang Zijie suddenly thought that he had been back for so long, and he hadn't seen his eldest sister, younger brothers and sisters.

"Your eldest sister and second sister went to Liu Xiang's house to do embroidery work together. Your little sister went out with her, too. Your little brother is not at home, and he doesn't know where he went. ”

"This tomorrow is busy farming, and today the family has a day off, and my mother will not restrain them."

"You can come back today and have a good rest, tomorrow will be busy."

"Mother, my son knows."

"Well, where did Dad go, wasn't he still there just now?"

Zhuang Zijie was having something to discuss with his father, but he didn't see where his father was when he came in.

"Your father, my mother just saw that your father seems to be back in the house, go and have a look!"

"Okay, that mother, I'll go to my father first, my son will buy some snacks and come back, and my mother will taste it first."

"Come back when you come back, what snacks did you buy, and why did you move all this stuff back?"

"Mother, I'll tell you about this in the evening! The son went down first and had something to discuss with his father. ”

"Okay, then the mother won't ask you, you can go!"

Su Huiniang looked at her grown son, who was so mature and stable at a young age. I was relieved and sad at the same time.

I can't help it......

Su Huiniang shook her head and turned around to get busy.

Zhuang Zijie walked into the house and looked at the father he was looking for, sitting on a chair with his eyes closed, as if waiting for his arrival.

"Daddy!"

"Hmmm! You have already quit your job at Wangjiang Tower. ”

"Yes, Dad, my son has been connected with the shopkeeper in the past few days!"

"What you asked your little brother to pass back that day, but it's already confirmed?"

"Well, it's confirmed."

"Then what do you think, what do you plan?"

"Dad, don't worry, since my son has returned home from Wangjiang Tower, my son is naturally ready for the future arrangements."

Back Mountain

I saw a small figure flashing quickly in the dense woods.

At this time, Zhuang Zihao had just entered the periphery of the back mountain, because the small animals in the outermost periphery could no longer satisfy her.

He went into the mountains today to find some valuable prey, tigers, bears, deer and other large animals. Or fox martens, animals that are loved by the wealthy.

It would be even better if you were lucky enough to find some valuable herbs such as ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, Polygonum multiflorum, etc. Now he is indeed too short of money.

Seeing that a natural disaster is coming, chaos will arise. I am a person who has traveled from modern times and is used to living a stable life. Thinking about the chaos that this will ensu, I don't feel safe at all.

He just wanted to fill his space with supplies before he disrupted it. It is also necessary to find a safe place to continue to store food supplies. When a little squirrel that has stocked food for the winter.

He quickly shuttled through the forest, and from time to time he had to pay attention to his surroundings to avoid the sneak attack of the poisonous snakes in the forest.

"I think it's right up ahead."

"That's right, it's the same mark I made last time."

Zhuang Zihao suddenly stopped and identified where he was. His eyes found on the trunk of a tree, the Z-shaped mark he had carved with a dagger when he had left the other day.

"Go to that small stream today and take a look, there should be no shortage of animals drinking water by the stream, so I'll wait for the rabbits."

"Hey, my darlings, I'm coming."

Zhuang Zihao retracted his gaze and hurried more carefully in the direction of the stream. The closer he got to the creek, the more cautious Zhuang Zihao became.

He needs to be on the lookout for all kinds of animals that will appear at any time, including large ones.

He used to remember to bring an old saying, be careful to make a ship of ten thousand years. This Wolong Mountain Range is already full of dangers, even if you have great ability, you must be careful, lest the boat capsize in the gutter, it will not be good.

And through the woods, there we were. Zhuang Zihao thought as he ran. His running speed slowed down.

He cautiously walked towards the big tree in front of the stream. From time to time, I look around for the situation.

After a while, he came to the foot of a large tree, and he first checked on the tree, and after making sure that there were no poisonous snakes hidden in the tree, he found a branch with a wide field of vision and stopped on the tree.

He leaned motionless against the tree, straightened his waist, and stared at the small animals that appeared in front of the stream from time to time to drink.

He was waiting for his time, and the prey he wanted had not yet appeared. He just lurked silently, silently watching.

After waiting for a while, an adult buck came running from a distance, and it slowly stopped by the stream, looking nervously around, as if to check whether there was any danger. After a while, after the stag was sure that its surroundings were safe, it finally lowered its head and drank water in the creek.

When the stag had finished drinking, it suddenly barked, and after the stag cried, there was a noise in the direction from which it came, and it turned out that there were a herd of about twenty small deer running over. There were five or six fawns inside, and the rest were adult female bucks.

"It's going to be sent!" Zhuang Zihao was very surprised.

He thought that he was lucky today, and he wanted to do it. Taking it out of the space, he secretly went to the county to find someone to tailor a bow and arrow.

At that time, he spent more than 300 taels of silver, which was almost all his belongings at that time. At that time, he was distressed, but when he saw the finished bow and arrow, he felt that it was very worthwhile.

Because of his great strength, the materials used for his bows and arrows are very strong, and the hardest of the woods used for his arrows are very durable. His bow can't even be pulled by the average martial artist.

Even the man who made the bow and arrow, after hearing the request for this bow, confirmed it with him, many times.

And his investment in this bow did not disappoint him, and he showed its importance in hunting time and time again.

Zhuang Zihao picked up the bow and arrow in his hand and prepared to shoot at the deer.
