Chapter 57: Ambush
There are two or three catties of mud poured into this bamboo tube, and the four add up to eight catties, and Chen Ping moved in the yard, which was a little heavier. Even if you don't run, just walking there, it seems very difficult.
"Gotta take your time, try one first." Chen Ping untied the two bamboo tubes, leaving one on each of his left and right feet, and the burden was suddenly reduced a lot.
Putting the two bamboo tubes back in the west room, Chen Ping heard the sound of chickens crowing before he went out. When he came out, it was his rooster that came out of the hall and crowed with his neck tilted.
The rooster crows.
After opening the courtyard door, Chen Ping crossed the threshold and felt the weight on his feet, which was quite satisfied. As soon as I looked up, I saw a figure standing at the root of the courtyard outside the courtyard gate.
"Why are you leaning here?" The figure is Chen Erniu, shrunk into a ball, it should be cold, and when he saw Chen Ping come out, he habitually hehe said twice.
"Didn't you say we were going to work out together today? I'll come here. Chen Erniu walked over, his hands and feet were frozen, and he was a little unsteady, "I don't know when you will come out, so I've been waiting here." ”
This temper is a bit similar to that of Pingdong, stubborn.
"Don't wait, run." Chen Erniu's face was white from the cold, he should have stood at the root of this courtyard for a while, this black light was blinding, but he didn't find it, Chen Ping said, "Follow me." ”
Carrying his footsteps, Chen Ping still ran along the Tu River in the morning, this time because Chen Erniu followed, and there was something else to do, he did not stop by the old willow tree.
After adding two mud-filled bamboo tubes, he didn't feel tired at first, but after walking for half an hour, when he arrived in the field to the west, Chen Ping felt that his legs and stomachs were heavy.
It's like pouring lead, a bit like Chen Ping's first morning run.
"Brother Ping, what's the use of running like this?" Chen Erniu followed closely behind Chen Ping, Chen Ping was fast, he was also fast, Chen Ping was slow, he was also slow, "Why do you want to be fast for a while, slow for a while?" Any explanation? ”
"This is how you can escape, so that you won't be caught." The benefits of exercising are naturally many, such a morning exercise, Chen Ping has never done it in later generations, and there is no pollution at this time, and there is no superfluous entertainment, which gives Chen Ping time to calm down and exercise, "In the future, you just want to play with Pingdong and catch up with him." ”
"Oh." Chen Erniu responded.
Out of the field to the west, it was the foot of the Liuhe Mountain, the hour was still early, Chen Ping looked, there was no one in the tomb on the mountainside.
The two of them continued to run, and when they crossed the river beach, they saw a man coming on the road ahead.
"I'm here in Pingdong." In the past, Chen Ping didn't have many sweat stains on his body, but when he stopped at this time, his clothes were soaked, especially his feet, and he wanted to kneel down and take a step, and he had to use all his strength, otherwise he would really fall.
Lai Pingdong was still carrying two hares in his hands, and walked over without hurrying, and when he saw the bamboo tube tied to Chen Ping's legs, he seemed to be very interested, and looked down to check it.
"You're doing this to build strength in your legs?" Lai Pingdong threw the hare to Chen Erniu, and saw that Chen Ping's bamboo tube tied to his leg was filled with mud, "You are so useless, you have to go up the mountain more, there is a section of the road in this Liuhe Mountain that is very steep by the west, and you can practice the kung fu on this leg by walking there twice a day." ”
Met Lai Pingdong, this road will definitely not continue to run, Chen Ping turned back, the three of them returned to the area of the tomb, and then entered the mountain, along the path to the forest.
"That's how you practice? Is it your third uncle who took you? This road is not steep, but it is very difficult for Chen Ping to take a step, but he did not take off the bamboo tube on his legs, but walked step by step.
This is also difficult at the beginning, wait for a few days, and it will not take a week, and the muscles of the calf will be able to adapt to it.
"Yes. Since I started walking, the third uncle has taken me up the mountain, and I have walked a lot, and I have practiced it, and there is no difficulty, and there is no need for you to be so troublesome. Lai Pingdong said, "I haven't seen you do this." ”
"Then you've seen it now, and it's certainly not worse than your way of climbing mountains." Chen Ping said with a smile, Chen Ping had also considered the method of climbing before, but although it was next to this Liuhe Mountain, it belonged to the undeveloped mountain forest after all, and it was not easy to find a suitable section of the mountain and exercise.
Just like the section that Chen Ping and the others walked, although they stepped out of the road, it was too gentle, and the role of exercise was limited.
The place that Pingdong said may be really useful, but after all, it is far away, and Chen Ping can't do it.
This method of legging, at present, is also the most suitable for Chen Ping.
The mountain fog in the early morning is still relatively thick, and when the three of them enter the forest, their vision is even hazy, not to mention the distance, even a few meters closer to the place can not really be seen.
With such a thick fog, Laipingdong is currently leading, and Chen Ping and the three of them did not take the wrong way to the side of the stream.
"Don't wander around, this place is covered." The stream is still open, and the line of sight is better, Chen Ping reminded Chen Erniu, and then untied the bamboo tube on his leg, "We'll wait there." ”
The place Chen Ping pointed to was a bush by the stream, which was not far from the way in, and it was just right to hide.
"Brother Ping, what are we hiding here for?" The three of them squatted into the bushes, and in this mist, hidden behind a cedar tree, Chen Erniu asked.
Chen Erniu still thought that he was taking the trap, but he suddenly changed and wanted to hide.
"Catch the thief." Chen Ping said in a low voice, "Three of my traps have been stolen, and there may be prey in them." Later, if someone comes and sees him moving the prey, they will catch him, you know? ”
There was movement on the traps in several places along the stream, and in the nearest place, on the hillside across the stream, there was a small boar. This point was not harvested yesterday, but I didn't expect to catch a small wild boar today.
The humming sound was faint, but it could still be heard.
"Okay." Chen Erniu nodded violently, grabbed the hare with both hands, and stared at the way he came.
The three of them waited silently, the fog gradually dissipated, the light fell from the branches and leaves above their heads, and the sound of the wind, that is, the occasional wolf sound, was heard in their ears.
Even the snorting of the little wild boar on the other side was weakened and almost inaudible.
"Don't this kid come today, will you?" Looking at the sun in the sky, it should have been half an hour, and Chen Ping has not seen anyone coming.
Although it is certain that the ninth layer that stole from the trap is Chen Shun, if he is not caught on the spot, then he will not be able to do it accurately, and he will be honest when he says it, giving people a chance to refute.
"Wait another half an hour, and if no one has come, we'll take the prey." Although the sun is out, it is really a little cold to squat and not move like this, and Chen Ping can't wait here all the time.
Lai Pingdong nodded, his hand was always in the bag with pebbles, and Chen Erniu had no opinion, silent, staring at the way he came.
Time passed little by little, the sun shook on the branches in the east, Chen Ping sighed, this more than an hour can be regarded as a white squat.
"All ......" Before Chen Ping's words could fully come out, as soon as he bent down and stood up, Lai Pingdong pulled down the corner of his robe.
"Someone's coming."
