Chapter 226: Falling into a Trap
In the next few days, the work of the quarry was carried out in an orderly manner, and there was basically nothing wrong with Master Zhao in charge.
The road from the material yard to the bottom of the mountain was slowly repaired, and after working these days, Guo Xiang decided to give everyone a holiday.
"Sister Guo Xiang, do you have any fun here?" Shen Meng asked Guo Xiang, it's been more than ten days since she came, either in the village or in the material factory, she can't help much, and she is a little bored.
Guo Xiang thought about it, there is really no place to play in this place.
"Why don't we go pick herbs?" Guo Xiang thought that Ji Changlin had taken her to Xiguang to pick herbs in the past, the scenery there was good, and maybe she could even catch prey.
"Herb picking?" Shen Qingshan looked at Guo Xiang curiously, "You still do this?" ”
Guo Xiang smiled, "Teacher Shen, I haven't told you yet, I am a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, and the barefoot doctor in the village is my master." ”
"I see!" Shen Qingshan nodded.
"Sister Guo Xiang, where are the herbs to pick?" Shen Meng's eyes lit up, and she felt very funny.
"In the neighboring province, our side borders with Xiguang, and they have a big mountain forest over there, so we can go there to pick them." Guo Xiang said.
"But we don't know herbs!" Shen Meng said.
"It's okay, you just go and play, I'll just pick it." Guo Xiang smiled, "And you may be able to hit the prey!" ”
"Really? Then I'm going! Shen Meng was excited when he heard it, and he had never gone up the mountain to hunt.
"But it's so far away that it takes more than two hours to walk to the bottom of the mountain. Don't complain! Guo Xiang said with a smile.
"So far?" Shen Meng pursed her lips, she wanted to go but was afraid of being tired, the sun was still so big.
"Shall I borrow a bike?" Gu Zhendong said.
There are only two bicycles in the whole village, Ji Changlin has one there, and it must be no problem to borrow it, and the village committee has one, which should also be able to borrow it.
"That's fine!" Guo Xiang nodded, borrowing a bicycle is much better than walking.
Gu Zhendong went to the village committee to borrow a bicycle, and Guo Xiang went to Ji Changlin's side.
"You're going to pick herbs?" Ji Changlin asked.
"Well, I haven't been there for a long time, and I've been too busy lately to draw the Chinese medicine atlas." Guo Xiang was a little embarrassed, "Master, are you going?" ”
"You're all young people, so I'm not going. Bring the realgar, now there are more insects and snakes on the hot mountain! Ji Changlin said.
"Hmm." Guo Xiang nodded, took out some realgar from the medicine jar, wrapped it in yellow paper, divided it into small packets, and gave them a good time to use later.
After borrowing the bicycle, Guo Xiang returned home and took out the bamboo basket, as well as the bow and crossbow belt that he had used before, which might come in handy later.
After a while, Gu Zhendong also came back and borrowed the bicycle from the village committee.
"Teacher Shen, will you go with us?" Guo Xiang asked Shen Qingshan.
"I'm not going, just rest at home, you can go by yourself!" Shen Qingshan waved his hand.
Guo Xiang nodded, during this time, Mr. Shen was running around for the quarry too hard, and he should rest more.
took a straw hat and put it on Shen Meng, now it's too hot, and the sun will be hot for a while, and your face will be red.
"Zhendong, you take Meng Meng, you are a boy with more strength." Guo Xiang said.
"Oh!" Gu Zhendong blushed and nodded.
Shen Meng sat on Gu Zhendong's bicycle very generously, grabbed his clothes with both hands, and Gu Zhendong's face turned even redder.
About an hour, the three of them arrived at the bottom of the mountain where Guo Xiang and the others had come before, found a hidden place to hide their bicycles, and the three of them began to go up the mountain.
"Keep this medicine in your pocket, it's insect repellent against snakes." Guo Xiang handed the realgar to Gu Zhendong and Shen Meng.
Shen Meng smelled curiously, a pungent smell, couldn't help wrinkling his nose, and put the medicine in his pocket.
"Sister Guo Xiang, what kind of herbs do you want to pick, can you teach me?" Shen Meng asked.
Guo Xiang thought about it, it is definitely not complicated, it is troublesome to pick the wrong one, so he picked a few plantain plants on the side of the road, this grass clears heat and diuretics, and is used more in summer.
"You just pick this, it's easy to recognize, it's okay if you can't pick it, just play behind." Guo Xiang showed the plantain to Shen Meng.
"Oh!" Shen Meng took the plantain to compare, and soon found the same on the ground.
"Is that it?" Shen Meng picked up a grass and ran happily in front of Guo Xiang.
"Yes, that's right, Meng Meng is very smart!" Guo Xiang said.
"That's it!" Shen Meng laughed, with a smug face, Guo Xiang smiled, the little girl was easy to satisfy.
A few people went all the way, Guo Xiang picked a lot of herbs, Gu Zhendong said very little, but Shen Meng chirped, asking this for a while and asking that for a while, extremely happy.
Suddenly, Gu Zhendong in front of him stopped, "What's wrong?" Guo Xiang asked.
Gu Zhendong pointed to the front, and Guo Xiang saw that there was a pheasant!
"What is it? What is it? Shen Meng leaned over and asked.
"Shh Guo Xiang put his finger on his lips, "Be quiet!" ”
"Oooh!" Shen Meng lowered her voice, her neck shrunk, walked to Gu Zhendong's side, and asked softly, "What is it?" ”
"It's a pheasant!" As soon as Gu Zhendong turned around, the corners of his mouth rubbed against Shen Meng's cheeks, and his face exploded red, he didn't expect Shen Meng to get so close.
Shen Meng was also stunned for a moment, a trace of blush appeared on his face, pretending not to care, and asked, "Where is it?" ”
But if you pay attention, the roots of her ears are already red.
"There!" Gu Zhendong's hand pointed forward, and then looked at Shen Meng, she looked like nothing happened, he wondered if he was delusional just now, but the corners of his mouth were still a little numb, not fake.
Guo Xiang didn't pay attention to the two of them, and took out the bow and crossbow from the bamboo basket, "Look at me!" ”
Load the bolts, take aim, and with a whoosh, the arrows shoot out.
"Hit!" Shen Meng jumped up and ran over.
"Ahh
"Moe Moe!"
"Little Meng!"
Guo Xiang and Gu Zhendong were both startled and hurriedly ran over.
saw a big pit in front of her, Shen Meng fell into the pit, and the pheasant that was shot also fell beside her.
"Mengmeng, how are you?" Guo Xiang asked hurriedly.
"I, I'm fine......" Shen Meng raised her head with tears in her eyes, "Sister Guo Xiang, my feet hurt so much......"
"Don't move, your foot may be twisted, we will rescue you immediately, don't be afraid!" Guo Xiang hurriedly comforted Shen Meng.
Gu Zhendong hurriedly looked around Shen Meng, this pit was a bit deep, it might be a trap dug by someone who wanted to catch the prey, but fortunately, there was no bamboo or anything in it, otherwise the person would die if he fell.
"Sister-in-law, you are guarding here, I'll go find some vines and come over!" Gu Zhendong said a word and ran towards the bushes on the side.
"Be careful!" Guo Xiang shouted behind him.
turned to look at Shen Meng again, "Mengmeng, don't be afraid, Zhendong will pull you up when he goes to find something, don't be afraid!" ”
"Hmm!" Shen Meng responded, with a nasal voice, her feet were very painful, and she was scared, she wanted to cry and was a little embarrassed.
"It's all my fault that I shouldn't have brought you to this mountain, I didn't expect there to be a trap on the mountain......" Guo Xiang blamed himself.
Shen Meng raised her head, "Sister Guo Xiang, I don't blame you, I blame myself for being too careless, in fact...... It's good that I fell, otherwise it would be you or Gu Zhendong who came to get the pheasant, and one of you would also be injured, I suffered it for you, and it was worth it. ”
Shen Meng pretended to be strong and said, with tears in her eyes.
The corners of Guo Xiang's mouth hooked, this silly girl is really stupid and cute.
