The Rugged Boy's Road Chapter 2: Today's Name is Dusk (Part II)

Finally, under the influence of the other five, Li Er also dispelled the idea of going home, and the six reached an agreement even if they acted. They had the experience of grilling fish once, and Papaya arranged their personal work according to the last step.

"Second son, Fengzi, you two go and kill those big fish. Kuroko and Fatty, you two go and build a stone platform to grill fish for a while. Hangzi, you come with me to pick up some dry firewood. ”

After that, Papaya took Su Hang to take the lead, but after a short while, they all completed their respective tasks and gathered on the edge of the stone platform that had been built. This stone platform is made of stone chips, and a thin stone slab is placed on top of it, and the papaya uses the flint he carries with him to light the dry firewood and stuff it under the stone platform, which is officially baked.

The fish in the creek are not too big, and there are just six of them on this stone slab, and the papaya is responsible for roasting them. It is said that this kind of grilled fish does not require much skill, and there is no seasoning to put on this wild stream, just pay attention to the heat and occasionally turn the body of the fish.

The fire is quite strong, the skin of the fish gradually changed color, although there is no seasoning to put, but the fragrance of the fish itself has made everyone salivate, after tossing for a long time, smelling such a fragrance, everyone's stomach began to growl.

After a while, the fragrance became even more fragrant, and the fat man looked at the burnt yellow fish skin and his eyes were very bright, so he couldn't hold his breath and said, "It's so fragrant, I think this fish should be cooked after being roasted for so long." Why don't I try one first?"

Papaya glanced at the fat man with bright eyes and said, "Let's bake it for a while, so as not to have diarrhea after eating it for a while." ”

The fat man replied a little unwillingly: "It's okay, my stomach is good, and I can't eat bad." ”

Looking at the fragrant fish, Su Hang couldn't help but help: "Papaya, why don't we let the fat man try it first, it should be cooked after being roasted for so long." ”

The fat man Wang Jin heard that someone was talking for him, and he didn't wait for Papaya's reply, while picking up the wooden stick in his hand and skewering the fattest fish casually, he blew it a few times and stuffed it into his mouth, and replied at the same time: "Yes, yes, yes, I'll try it for you first." ”

The temperature of the freshly grilled fish is extremely high, how can it be cooled down by blowing a few times, only to see the fat man grinning his teeth in this mouthful, but this did not affect his appetite at all, I saw that he opened his mouth to exhale the hot breath and swallowed the fish twice, and then held the fish and continued to gnaw, but the temperature was indeed too high, and his mouth was a little smaller.

Wang Yi saw Wang Jin's joy, swallowed his saliva and asked, "Fatty, you ate so fast, are you ripe after tasting it?"

When the fat man heard this, he chewed the fish meat in his mouth, and replied inarticulately: "It's cooked, eat it with confidence." ”

Hearing the fat man's reply, and then looking at the fat man's eating appearance, everyone couldn't help but pick up the wooden sticks and skewer them one by one to eat. This wild meat without oil and salt may be nothing in the eyes of the rich children, but the six of them are all the sons of woodcutters, and their families are poor.

Just when the six of them were indulging in the food, suddenly a loud "Om ......" came from the sky west of Shifang Town like a thunderbolt from the sky, this sound was like some kind of creature howling, and the howl resounded through the sky and shook the eardrums of the six people.

The six of them were so frightened by the sound that they sat on the spot, and the fat man, who was the least daring, was so frightened that he dropped all the fish he had eaten to the ground. It took a little for the six to react, and quickly blocked their ears with their hands, and the howl lasted for about half a cup of tea before it gradually faded.

After the sound stopped, the six looked at each other and were silent for a long time. For some reason, after this sound, a trace of fear rose in Su Hang's heart, and Su Hang didn't understand whether he was frightened by this sound, or if he felt in his heart that something more terrifying was happening.

In the end, Wang Jin was the first to break the silence and asked blankly: "What kind of strange sound did you say just now, it's really scary." ”

Papaya sat next to Wang Jin, as the eldest brother of the six, in order to protect his face, he calmly patted the fat man's shoulder and said: "You are the least daring, such a little thing scares you that you can't hold the fish steadily? ”

However, his pale complexion and the cold sweat on his forehead and back betrayed him deeply, exposing his fear, but at this time, no one cared, and all they cared about was the strange sound just now.

Su Hang sat quietly in place, he turned a deaf ear to the conversation between the fat man and the papaya, at this time, the trace of fear in his heart did not subside at all, but it was constantly taking root and sprouting more and more, and the fear was like a spring silkworm spinning a cocoon in his heart, tightly winding his heart.

The last inexplicable heartache came to his heart, and the fear also spread to the extreme in Su Hang's heart, he threw the fish still in his hand to the ground, didn't bother to greet anyone, got up and ran in the direction of home.

Papaya was taken aback by Su Hang's sudden move and hurriedly asked, "Hangzi, where are you going?"

Seeing that Su Hang didn't answer, the five of them also got up one after another and followed Su Hang to catch up.

Their location is in the southeast of Shifang Town, Su Hang's home is in the northwest of Shifang Town, Su Hang did not take the main road, but ran all the way, and it took him some time to rush home.

"Mother"

As soon as Su Hang arrived at the door, he shouted loudly, but he didn't get a response, Su Hang walked through the hall with a heavy heart, and when he entered the inner room, he saw Su Ho playing with a wooden bird alone in the inner room, this wooden bird looked a little rough, Su Hang knew that this must be a gift from his father today, but at this moment he didn't have time to take a closer look.

Seeing Soho playing with wooden birds, Su Hang's heart finally warmed up. He gently stroked Soho's hair and asked, "Xiaohe, where is my mother, why didn't she stay at home with you?"

Soho tilted his head and thought for a while before returning: "My mother just went out." ”

Su Hang asked, "Did she say where she was going?"

Soho shook his head after thinking for a while and replied: "No, there was a terrible cry just now, and I was scared to cry, and then after a while, someone came to call my mother, and my mother let me play at home by myself and went out." ”

Then Su He raised the wooden bird in his hand and said to Su Hang: "Brother, my mother said that this wooden bird is a gift from your father, but I like it so much, can you give it to me." ”

Su Hang's heart was hit by a wave of fear, and he smiled reluctantly: "Okay, since Xiaohe also likes it, then my brother will give it to Xiaohe." ”

Although Su Ho is small, he is extremely smart and well-behaved, looking at Su Hang's somewhat gloomy look, he thought that Su Hang was reluctant, so he shook his head and said, "Brother, if you are unhappy, I don't want it." ”

After saying that, he was going to hand the wooden bird to Su Hang, Su Hang shook his head and said: "Xiaohe is really good, but my brother is not happy because of it, my brother has something to go out now, don't run around at home alone." ”

Seeing that Su Hang didn't answer, Su He withdrew the wooden bird and nodded vigorously at the same time and replied: "Well, Xiaohe doesn't run around when he listens to his brother's words." ”

Su Hang stretched out his hands and gently patted Su He's hands holding the wooden bird, then turned around and walked out, and just out of the gate of the hall, he saw Papaya, Wang Yi and other five people running towards here.

When the five approached, Su Hang found that the five of them were all panicked, and even Papaya, Wang Yi, and Zhao Quanfeng, who had always been the most calm, could not be spared.

Papaya rushed to the front, and when he arrived in front of Su Hang, he gasped and said, "Hangzi, it's not good." Something happened in the mountains!"

Su Hang's eyes were shocked when he heard this, and he asked urgently, "What's going on in the mountains?"

The papaya was still wheezing, and Wang Yi next to him continued: "We just heard from the adults on the road that there was a mountain demon on the mountain in the west, and the strange roar just now came from it, and now many villagers have rushed over, let's hurry up and take a look, our father is still on the mountain!"

Su Hang heard that the fear in his heart was even worse, but at this moment he had to forcibly suppress his fear, and the six of them got up together and ran in the direction of the mountain, along the way they saw many acquaintances also rushing to the mountain, but everyone couldn't care about greetings, and they could only run to the mountain by themselves.

The mountain road was rugged and winding, and at first the six people could still hold on, but after all, the six people were young, and they frolicked for a long time in the morning, and before they could fill their stomachs, they went up the mountain through the town again, and at this moment they were a little weak in physical strength, and their speed slowed down.

It took a long time for the six of them to climb up the mountainside, and there was a large flat land on the mountainside, and at this moment, nearly 100 people gathered at the intersection of the end of the flat land leading to the mountain, which seemed a little crowded.

Su Hang relied on his small stature, and squeezed forward from under the crowd, and when he arrived in front, he saw three people standing at the intersection of the mountain, all of whom were dressed in green robes, holding a three-foot Qingfeng with a bun on their heads, and their backs to everyone.

The townsfolk stood behind the three of them very tacitly, and no one rushed forward. Su Hang walked to the front and went around in a half circle, and finally saw Li Yue, Su Hang saw Li Yue rushing up and hugging Li Yue's thigh and shouting with an aggrieved face.

"Mother"

Li Yue's brows were deep, her face was pale, and her haggard color was fully revealed, and when she saw Su Hang actually appearing in front of her, she exclaimed: "Hangzi, why did you come up too?"

Su Hang nodded and replied: "Well, I heard from the villagers that there are mountain demons in the mountains, and you are not at home, so I will come up to find you." ”

Li Yue continued to ask, "You just went home? What about Xiaohe, she didn't come with her, did she?"

Su Hang shook his head and said, "No, I asked Xiaohe to wait for me at home obediently, she won't run around." By the way, what happened to my mother, why did these Taoist leaders stop here, is it because of the mountain demon? And Daddy, he's okay in the mountains. ”

Su Hang asked all the questions in his heart in one go, and after throwing out all the questions, Su Hang's heart seemed to feel a little more comfortable, and his eyes were full of hope, hoping that Li Yue could tell him that everything was fine.

Li Yue listened to Su Hang's question, and the worry on her face became even heavier, but in order not to worry Su Hang, she said with certainty: "Don't worry, your father will be fine, and in a while he will come down the mountain with your favorite wild fruit to celebrate your birthday." ”
