Chapter 13: The Ambition of a General
After they were all half-full, Wu Hongsheng left half of the men to take care of the house.
The women and children followed them up the mountain.
On the way up the mountain, I happened to pick some mushrooms and eat wild fruits.
Wujia Village is at the foot of the Qiyang Mountains.
The highest altitude of the Qiyang Mountains is almost more than 4,000 meters. The vegetation is dense and wildlife is abundant. The trees are also very tall.
When more than a dozen people entered the mountain, it was like a small ant climbing into a big forest. If you're not familiar with the mountains, it's easy to get lost inside.
When Wu Hongsheng was struggling to make a living before, he was a hunter for a period of time.
He can dig traps and shoot arrows.
Because the family is from a family of military generals. From the age of three, he became involved in horseback archery.
The latter family suffered, and the children of their Wu family also relied on their hard work to survive.
Wu Hongsheng held a long wooden stick in his hand and took his family to walk on the trail on the mountain.
"Be careful! There are a lot of snakes, insects, rats and ants on this mountain, so you all cheer up and be vigilant! ”
The temperature on the mountain is at least a few degrees lower than the temperature below.
The higher you climb the mountain, the lower the temperature on the mountain, and the cold mountain wind blows people shivering.
On the way forward, Wu Guifang heard her eldest daughter-in-law, panting and walking forward, while complaining, "Daddy, let's not build a house on the mountain, right?" ”
"Look at the road on this mountain, it's really not easy to walk. Moreover, there are many bandits in the mountains. If it's too far away from the village, if our family is robbed and killed, no one knows......"
"This kind of thing has not happened in our village before! That family of more than ten people died miserably......"
This incident was witnessed by Wang Jinlian ten years ago.
The tragedy that happened ten years ago seemed to happen right in front of her eyes.
Wang Jinlian still remembers that the county lord with a long white beard ran to their Wujia Village to handle the case with more than a dozen arresters.
The corpse, whose throat had been cut and limbs had been cut open, was carried from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain by the predators.
Moreover, those unformed corpses were all put into the ancestral hall of their Wujia Village.
These people are all from Wujia Village.
It should be that the Wu family should help collect the body.
Wang Jinlian took advantage of her mother-in-law's lack of attention at that time, thinking of being lazy, and ran outside the ancestral hall to watch the excitement.
That's a big deal.
She saw the bloody patch on the ground.
When she returned that night, she had more than a dozen nightmares in a row.
Over the years, that tragic scene has always appeared in her mind.
From this incident, Wang Jinlian realized that whether it is a woman or a man, living in this world, people with the same blood relationship must be together!
Living together is the right way.
Otherwise, you will become someone else's ghost in a daze.
Wang Jinlian has such an understanding because she has such a profound personal experience.
However, Wu Hongsheng, who has lived longer than her and has seen more than her, has actually thought about this problem a long time ago.
So he went up the mountain today with a difficult task.
He had to be on the hill as much as possible, looking for a place that would be easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Last night, his old wife quietly explained to him.
She said that there was a lot of scrap iron in the blessed land that the gods gave her......
When Wu Hongsheng said this, her spirit was shocked.
These people are now unarmed. As long as they have understanding, they can build tools.
And build tools to kill.
Wu Hongsheng's eldest uncle and second uncle, including his own father, are all military generals.
Although they are not big officials.
They are all garrisons of the fifth grade and a thousand total of the sixth grade.
However, if the people in the family were all in such an official, it would show that the strength of their Wu family at that time was still good in the northern region.
A family has prospered for more than 100 years, relying not only on opportunity, but also on vision.
What's more, they rely on their own real skills.
Wu Hongsheng was born with alertness and sensitivity as a military general.
He knew that with his daughter-in-law and what she had in her hands, the bandits of hundreds of people on this mountain were nothing at all!
Over the years, he has been practicing martial arts diligently. As long as he has a big sword and a bow and arrows in his hand, he can bring twenty elite soldiers with him, and he can beat them to the ground.
He is not afraid that they will come, he is afraid that they will not come!
When the time comes, he just lets his sons, nephews, and grandchildren practice on them.
……
At this moment, Wang Jinlian didn't know that her father-in-law had already planned a crazy plan in her heart.
If she knew, she would definitely advertise loudly to the people of Wujia Village, her father-in-law is crazy!
Wu Guifang followed Wu Hongsheng and walked on the mountain for more than half an hour. She found that she couldn't hold on.
She was sweating profusely, her limbs were sore, and her legs were cramping.
The feet of the wearing a pair of straw sandals have many blisters.
Seeing that his old wife couldn't hold it after walking so far, Wu Hongsheng thought about it and directly carried her on his back.
"Let's go."
Seeing her father-in-law, walking behind her mother-in-law in the daylight, Wang Jinlian, who was also holding a stick in her hand, pouted her lips disdainfully.
What she looks down on the most is her father-in-law.
He is a big man, as long as he sees that his daughter-in-law is thirsty, hungry, and tired, he cares very much. began to accommodate everything, and she, the mother-in-law who was the best at pretending to be sick.
Wang Jinlian thought angrily, and she didn't know if her mother-in-law had burned high incense in her previous life?
In this life, I met such a man who took her very seriously.
As long as Wang Jinlian thought of the relationship between her father-in-law and mother-in-law or cousin, she felt very uncomfortable.
I think that back then, her relationship with her eldest cousin was also very good.
If it weren't for her father and mother, who fell in love with the bride price of the Wu family, if it weren't for her family, who disliked her handsome eldest cousin for being poor, Wang Jinlian believed that she would have given birth to seven or eight children with her eldest cousin at this time!
Wang Jinlian was in love for the first time.
She still likes and admires the big cousin who is only three years older than her.
Every time she was with him, she seemed to have something to say.
The eldest cousin is very funny.
He always likes to make her laugh. At that time, he often sent her flowers and wild fruits on the mountain to eat, and he would also give her small loaches, saying that she would eat more to replenish the meat......
Thinking of her past and the bits and pieces of getting along with that man, Wang Jinlian's eyes suddenly turned red and she almost burst into tears.
She and her eldest cousin are typical of fate.
She thought to herself, if she was with him here, she didn't know how happy she was.
His current man is boring, he can't beat a fart with three sticks, where is he compared to his big cousin?!
