Chapter Forty-Six: Stone Creek

The sound of rushing water can already be faintly heard, but Xin Laosan and Xin Huzi are there, and when it is almost noon, they can be regarded as approaching the stone stream of Guizi Mountain. Before I came to Stone Creek, I also saw some small water eyes dotted among the trees and flowers.

Xin Laosan was beside a passing small water eye, and took a sip of water with his thick palm and drank some water. But it was really with a hint of sweetness, and a trace of cool thread flowed into his intestines along his throat, which was already a little dry. In the past two days, he was not very willing to drink a few sips of water, but he was really a little thirsty. Although Xiaohuzi was also on the way, he asked himself. Why didn't Daddy drink a few sips of water, but Xin Laosan saved all the water in the water bladder for Xiaohuzi to drink. And he, a man who always walks in the woods, can't drink a few mouthfuls of water for several days, but it's just a daily routine for him.

watched Daddy drink several handfuls of water Xin Huzi, but he also did the same, and also picked up a mouthful of water with his little hands. When he drank the sweetness, a trace of cool thread down his throat and eyes, straight into his stomach. But I've never drunk it before, such a delicious water eye!

also because I followed Daddy again, and walked for almost a morning. I didn't drink a few sips of water on the way, and I was really a little thirsty. Then he picked up a few mouthfuls of water with his little hand, and then drank a lot of it, and then he was satisfied, and shook his little cold hand.

"Daddy! This, this water is really sweet! ”

"Hey! Daddy didn't lie to you! This is the water eye of Stone Creek. Although they haven't reached the stone stream yet, these passing water eyes are also under the ground, and the water eyes are connected to the stream, and they are all sweet. ”

Xin Laosan said, and poured the rest of the water, less than half a water bladder, clean. But he poured the clean water bladder and pressed it into the water eye in front of him. As the water bladder continued to bubble, it was soon filled, and a skin full of water came.

"Huzi! Walk! Stone Creek is ahead! Let's see if you can meet some of these people, maybe you can really meet some good beasts! ”

"Good! I still want to take a look! What about the fish in the water! ”

Xin Huzi was still thinking about the fish in the stone stream. On weekdays, his favorite thing to play is to go down to the stream next to Tunzi with his friends in Tunzi to touch the fish in the stream. Even if it wasn't in this sunny season, he would go to the stream to take a look. And if you touch the fish, you can also let the eldest sister roast it for herself. The fish grilled by the eldest sister is sprinkled with some salt, but it is also delicious!

After Xin Laosan filled the water bladder, he went in the direction of the gradually approaching sound of water.

When Xin Huzi followed Daddy's side, and finally passed through some woods, he also saw Stone Creek, where he and Daddy were going today. I saw a slow stream, flowing between the mountains and forests. Although the stream was not very large, it was much larger than the shallow stream of the small river beside the tunzi where he was. On both sides of the stream, there are many stones, large and small. But because there are so many stones, there are no trees and it looks a little empty. But there are also many flowers and plants, which grow luxuriantly along those large and small stones, but also have another green and tranquil beauty.

"Huh?"

Xin Huzi saw the stream in front of him, so he seemed to have to run over first. But while he was looking around curiously, he also spotted something good.

It was on a big rock that I saw a tree vine full of knots, blue-purple berries! But he recognized the berry. Some time ago, he and his friends in Tunzi saw some vines that had just borne fruit in a forest weed next to Tunzi. Although the berries on the vine of the tree were not fully ripe, they were still a little green. But he also picked it off with Brother Heizi and Brother Da Zhuang and ate it into his stomach. It has a sweet taste in the sourness, but it is also delicious.

But on the stone in front of me, there are vines crawling, and berries among the branches and leaves. But it wasn't the small, blue-purple fruit he found in the weeds of Tunzi. It's ripe, and it's a lot bigger! When I really look at it, I feel a little greedy.

Xin Huzi looked at the fruit on the vine and stretched out his little hand. Pick the berries that you can get for yourself. Before he could eat the berries he had picked, Daddy came to his side.

"Hey! You kid! I'm really looking for it! ”

Xin Laosan looked at the little tiger who was about to pick the berries and send them to his little mouth and smiled. But just now, when he saw Xiaohuzi picking the fruit on the stone, he knew that Xiaohuzi was going to pick it and eat it. But because it was a little far away, I couldn't see what fruit Xiaohuzi was picking. walked a few steps to Xiaohuzi's side, but saw that Xiaohuzi was picking berries in the forest, so he didn't say anything. He also followed the vines that climbed all over the stones, and plucked a few berries that were not small.

"This, this fruit is so sweet! Look, it seems. It's still fully cooked and delicious! Xin Huzi chewed the berries in his mouth and said.

But I remembered that when I found the berry tree vine that day, Sister Er Ya'er also said that it would be delicious to wait. And where could Xin Huzi wait at that time? I'm afraid that I can wait, but Brother Heizi and Brother Da Zhuang can't wait. With Brother Heizi and Brother Da Zhuang, they ate the berries on the vines of the tree early. For this reason, Sister Er Ya is still a little angry that she doesn't listen to her.

"Give!"

Xin Laosan ate a few berries, and then handed the big berries to Xiaohuzi's little hand.

Xin Huzi was overjoyed and took the ripe berries that Daddy handed him. But he followed Daddy again and continued to walk towards the stone stream.

This stone stream is not a small long stream in the section in front of the kidnapping mountain, and it is named because there are many stones next to the stream. The hunters who walk around the kidnapping mountain also have water to eat here. Because of the abundant water here, many people in the woods near the fur and horns also often come here to drink. But it also allows the hunters who also come here to get water and eat, and from time to time they can encounter some prey that comes to the door. There are also hunters who lie in ambush here, waiting for the prey that comes here to take the bait. But this stream, after all, flows through a place that is also miles away. The prey that comes here to eat water does not necessarily appear in the place where the hunters are ready and ambushed. Therefore, it can only be a matter of luck.

Xin Laosan is also an old hunter who often comes to this kidnapping mountain, and he is also very clear about this stone stream. He had also been ambushed by Stone Creek, though he could hunt for something. But it was not as fast as himself, and when he walked in the woods, he hunted good animals. But the calves, who often hunted with him, were very fond of this stone stream. But it's because there are still some fat fish in this stream.

But only in good seasons can you go down to this stream to dive and eat fish. It's really going to be winter, but you can't touch the fish. And this stream is really cold. It is only now, in this good season when the sun is warm, that I don't feel it much when I go down to the shallower water. But you can't stay in the water for too long, otherwise you can really cool people down.

"Fish! Really, really there are fish! ”

Xin Huzi followed Daddy to the stream, and when he saw the clear stream, the free, potential fish in the water, Xin Huzi shouted happily. Even if you have to take off your clothes, go into the water to touch the fish. But he didn't move yet, and Daddy stopped him.

"Hey! What's the hurry! You drank some of the water of this stone stream just now. What do you think? ”

"Huh? Well, it's delicious. Also, it's really sweet. Hmmm, it's cool."

Xin Laosan took Xiaohuzi's hand and came to the stone stream, pointing to the slowly flowing stream: "Huzi, this stream is no better than other places." It's not a creek next to our Tunzi River. The water here is delicious, but it's also very cold! Uncle calf, you have once gone down to fish in this water. When he went ashore, he couldn't get cold, but Daddy lit the fire in advance, so that he could warm up and come back. ”

Xin Laosan said, and the corners of his mouth showed a slight smile. But I remembered the calf that I loved the most. That time the calf and himself, when he came here. But it was also just in time for the warm season, and the calf took off clean without saying a word. With a bare ass, he went down to the stream and touched the fish. But it didn't take long for the water to be very cold. But he couldn't stand it, so he ran up again.

Watching the calves look like they are cold in the heat of winter. It really made Xin Laosan feel very funny. But Xin Laosan also knew that if it weren't for the strength of the calf. This cold stream can really make people sick. It was precisely because of this that he stopped the little tiger who saw the fish in the stream and wanted to go into the water to touch the fish.

"If you really want to touch the fish, let's just move forward. Find a place where the stream is shallow, and go down. ”

Xin Laosan didn't want to sweep away Xiaohuzi's interest, so he continued to speak. Although there are fish in the stream in front of you, the water is not very deep. It happened to be under the chest of the little tiger, but it couldn't just let the little tiger go down.

"Oh!"

Although Xin Huzi was a little disappointed, he looked at the fish that continued to swim in the water. But he can only listen to Daddy's words. He wasn't there, when it was cold, he touched the fish in the Tunzi River. But when Daddy said this, he also remembered the situation just now, when he and Daddy were drinking water next to Xiaoshui's eyes.

The water with a hint of sweetness is delicious. But it's really cool, and it's really like a stream in the winter. And he also heard from Daddy about Uncle Calf going down to fish in this stream. I really think that the water in this stream is colder, so it's better to find a shallow place to touch it.

Just like that, Xin Laosan walked in front, and Xin Huzi walked behind Daddy. Follow the gently flowing water of the Stone Creek towards a tributary that branches off from the stream.
