Chapter 9: Ye Shoujun
With the special approval of her mother, wormwood began to collect from the periphery, and slowly walked to the depths, scanning all the mountain goods and herbs along the way, except for wild vegetables, as long as they were ripe.
Tiger Mountain doesn't seem to be as dangerous as it seems! Except for the occasional passing animal, a hare and pheasant, not even a single silly spore was seen, let alone any large wild animals! In fact, it is wormwood that has itchy hands by herself, and she wants to try the power of crossbow arrows, and the value of meat should be higher than that of wild fruits, in fact, a simpler sentence is that she is hungry!
"Ash, where is the water source?" Her stomach began to rumble with hunger, and it was almost time for lunch, so she was just looking for a water source to collect some of the mountains and rivers in the silver jar, and then burn some hot food.
"There is no one within 200 meters, but you can search, 10 gold coins."
Search it! I've thought of it.
"There is a pond 500 meters to the northeast, and I will send you a message for free, and there is a wild boar by the pond."
Wormwood's eyes were so bright that I didn't expect itβthis man couldn't help but mutter, and so did this animal.
"Yes, and it's smooth news that can't be smoother, a few minutes late, and I'll see 100% of the news." Wormwood rolled her eyes, and then became happy again, although it was good news for the discount, after all, it was granted! But I am still unwilling to the system, and I want money to die! If the system is human, it will definitely kill him, and this is too easy to do.
Indignation to resentment, it did not affect Wormwood's actions at all, and her movements were as clever as ever. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the pond was like a gathering of animals, not only wild boars, but also wild pigeons, wild ducks, wild goats, and silly spores. It's really an unexpected surprise, but I don't know how much I can hunt, and I guess I ran out as soon as there was a movement.
Wormwood thought about it and looked at 5 wild boars and 6 wild goats, which were still large wild animals with a lot of meat. Raise your left hand and place your right hand on the crossbow arrow. The distance was too far, so he had to move closer to the pond, and then attack the wild goat and the wild boar almost at the same time, and with a crossbow arrow on each side, the wild goat and the wild boar ran towards the wormwood like crazy when provoked. Wormwood dodged the attacks of wild goats and wild boars with difficulty, too close to dodge, so they could only dodge dangerously into the farm, and then the wild boars appeared behind them, and the crossbow arrows "Xiu Xiu Xiu..." were fired at the wild goats and wild boars in succession; In the blink of an eye, there was only a pile of loot left on the ground, and I didn't expect to be hit by an arrow.
Wormwood quickly collected all the loot into the warehouse, where the smell of blood was too strong, unsafe, and afraid of recruiting the wolves.
When I was about to withdraw, I found that the stupid spores were worthy of being stupid spores, and they still hadn't reacted until now, and they were still staying by the pond. They were embarrassed not to accept them, so they didn't say a word - a bang, after the crossbow arrows were fired, and then they immediately changed to a new crossbow box, and with two more groans, the three stupid spores were also caught.
This time, I don't want anything, I'm afraid that I won't have my life to eat. Run over and put away the stupid spores, and run back regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one.
After being safe, she secretly found a corner and went into the farm, and then sat on the sofa in fear, she still held it up, thinking that she had mental power and a system was omnipotent; Fortunately, after the system has been upgraded to one level, you only need to think about it for a moment to enter the system, and you no longer have to touch the birthmark to enter the space. Otherwise, I don't know how I died today, and my mental power can't do it, it's too close, and I almost didn't have time to dodge it several times.
Wormwood was stimulated and was not in the mood to cook, so she directly ate a few wild fruits to cushion her stomach.
After resting for a while, I calmed down before going out. Start at the other end and go back...
Woo ~ Woo ~ Woo ... The howls of the wild wolves came one after another from far to near, and the wormwood was so frightened that he ran away.
Seeing the mountain pass close at hand, I didn't hear the scary wolf howl anymore, and I was ready to take a walk around the neighborhood and pick more wild vegetables quietly.
"........." What sound does wormwood seem to hear?
"Ash, is there anyone nearby?" I don't know anything, and I'm instinctively a little scared.
"There is no scan range, search, 10 gold coins."
Ignoring him, she has lost her temper with the system wormwood.
It seems to be nearby, so let's hear it first. I had the courage to listen carefully...
"Is there anyone~Is anyone there~" I heard a hoarse shout, and it turned out to be a "person", so I was not afraid.
And the gold coin was saved, and she followed the direction of the voice... I saw a somewhat familiar teenager standing in a big pit.
"Hey... Are you okay? Wormwood shouted at him.
"It's okay, it's just a little high, it's not good to go out." The boy was a little disappointed when he saw that it was a little girl, but he answered truthfully.
In fact, he is not worried about not being able to get out, this is estimated to be a waste pit left by hunters in the past, compared the depth, and he should be able to get out if he thinks of a way, but it is a troublesome point.
When you hear someone walking, you don't know who is coming, so you can leave a hole card for yourself; Second, I didn't want to waste that matter, so I called people directly.
"Wait a minute, I'll see if there's any rattan around that can pull you up." Wormwood thought that there seemed to be a few vines in the place where she had just passed, but I didn't know if there were any thick ones that could pull people.
"Okay, there's no hurry!" Don't let anything happen to you.
"I really don't have it, I can find a few longer and thicker wooden strips." This deep mountain and old forest may lack everything, but there will definitely be no shortage of wood, safety first.
Wormwood ignored him, pulled him out early and went home early, there was too much nonsense.
As luck would have it, I pulled some suitable rattans out of the vines and dragged them to the mouth of the waste pit.
"I found the rattan, but I don't know if I have enough strength to pull you up, try first, be careful not to pull me down!" Wormwood was afraid of death, but she didn't want to save people, so she put herself in first.
"Compare the length of the rattan to the ancient tree next to it. If you can, I'll tie a knot, and you can wrap one end of the rattan around the old tree, and then throw the other end to me, and I can come up myself. "Look at her little arms and legs, she definitely can't pull him, or he comes up by himself safely and quickly, don't try to try.
Throw it directly to him and say: "I found the longest one to pull it back, it must be enough, you can tie the knot directly!" "Wormwood is in a good mood and thinks about it, and it saves trouble.
"You said that we can use this waste pit if we arrange it again?" Watching him tie the knot, he had nothing to say.
"It can be used, but it is estimated that there are no wild things passing by nearby, and the layout is also for nothing."
When he fell, he had already thought quickly.
"Alright, you can take it and put it on for a while!"
"Anyway, the pit is ready-made, and it doesn't take much trouble to arrange it, in case the blind cat encounters a dead mouse, we will make money." In fact, wormwood doesn't need to hunt wild animals so hard at all, just in case, these wild animals must have a provenance, and he is a ready-made witness.
The young man came up with the rattan three times and two times, looked at the wormwood and said, "Okay, I'll help you get it, it's a reward for helping me just now." β
Wormwood looked at the boy a little blankly, not because he was so vigorous and old; It's not because even if he just climbed up from the waste pit, his whole expression didn't show a trace of panic, as if he had just come out of his own house; It's that she knows him, although the two haven't spoken, but they do know each other, it's from their village, and it's still a classmate with his second brother.
"I know you, and you're from our village, right?" Wormwood screamed excitedly, seeing acquaintances, now she is completely relieved.
"By the way, your name seems to be ..., what's your name?" Wormwood touched her forehead and muttered to herself as she thought, "Oops! It's all on the lips, but I can't say it. β
"Ye Shoujun." The young man is Ye Shoujun, and he is considered an afterthought after taking wormwood.
He recognized wormwood when he first came. After all, he and Erhu are classmates, and because they are from the same village, they are relatively close.
For the delicate and lovely little sister in the mouth of the second tiger, it is like thunder. There are a few brothers, all of them are three sentences and do not leave his little sister, as long as they are close, they all know that they are all full of sister control.
And he had seen her from afar several times, and because of Ye Shoujun's own reasons, he was particularly envious of their father's love for their mother, their brothers and sisters, and their family harmony. Therefore, I was deeply impressed by the wormwood, which was loved by the whole family.
"Yes, yes, that's the name!" Then it seemed rude to think that I couldn't remember people's names, and added, "I'm sorry! Brother Defender. β
Ye Shoujun was so heartily shouted "Brother Defender" by her, his heart was warm, but he couldn't see any expression on his paralyzed face, usually he was almost alone for various reasons; also understood what she meant by saying sorry, and paused and said, "It's okay, it's normal that everyone doesn't usually have any contact and can't remember the name." He was just telling the truth, but Wormwood was even more reluctant to hear it, but she also knew that Ye Shoujun didn't mean anything else.
Let's talk, Ye Shoujun promised to help Wormwood set the trap and he wouldn't forget, and his hand also moved.
"Brother Defender, why did you come to Tiger Mountain?" Wormwood asked curiously, handing over another branch or something, to help a little. (I don't know if she still remembers that she proposed to set the trap, I feel a little out of priority, dizzy... οΌ
"I've been in Tiger Mountain with my dad since I was a child, and I'm used to it." He has always practiced martial arts with his father, has the ability to protect himself, and as long as he tries to prepare for the mountain, there is no big problem. It's just that...... Looking at wormwood, he didn't speak.
In fact, after Wormwood asked, he thought that his father was an old hunter, and he heard that he had been a soldier before, a very mysterious person, so it was not easy for them to come to Tiger Mountain to hunt! On the contrary, she dug a pit for herself, and she knew what he meant when she saw Ye Shoujun's silent appearance.
"This year, the weather is not good, I am afraid that the harvest will not be good, and my family does not need me to work. Just in case, I'll come over and find more mountain goods to stock. "Now that he has been seen, he always has to be given a reason, which can be regarded as an indirect reminder to save more food.
"Don't come here in the future, this is the periphery, it's just a fluke that you're okay. There are indeed a lot of wild boars, wild wolves, brown bears, poisonous snakes, and other fierce beasts and poisons in Tiger Mountain. Adults don't dare to come, let alone you are a little girl. "This little girl is too bold, she can't sneak into the mountains, right?
Wormwood knew that Ye Shoujun was kind enough to say this, and after thinking about it, he untied the crossbow arrow and showed him: "I have this, and I also brought anti-snake and insect medicine." "Anyway, this crossbow bolt is not something strange, and it's okay for people to know about it.
Ye Shoujun took the crossbow arrow curiously, and found that it was really a good thing, he was fortunate to see a crossbow arrow from his father's friend, that one is also a treasure, but it is not comparable to this, such a delicate crossbow arrow is also a treasure among crossbow arrows.
Ye Shoujun returned the crossbow arrows to Wormwood and kindly reminded her: "This kind of crossbow arrows is rare, don't show them to others unless you have to do it in the future." "It's hard to say much, for fear of scaring other little girls.
"I've been going into the mountains a lot lately, do you want to come with me?" Seeing that the little girl is also very well prepared, such a good crossbow arrow must have been given to her by the adults in the family to defend herself, since this is the case, he is not disgusted. But after all, it is a deep mountain and old forest, and there is still a certain danger. If you are together, you can help her by then. Anyway, he himself is going to go into the mountain, and it is a convenient thing.
"Brother Defender, do you often go into the mountains to hunt?" Wormwood is a little entangled, having a companion with him does have many advantages, the most obvious is that the Hushan Ye defenders are particularly familiar, what is here and what is there, it is estimated that he knows it clearly, but she has a secret! If you really go into the mountains with him, the farm will definitely not be very convenient to use, and it will definitely not be as convenient as yourself.
"I mainly pick herbs and hunt, and I also ask for fungi when I come across them, but I don't look for them in particular." Ye Shoujun also explained the situation carefully, whether to let her think about it by herself or not, he didn't force it, anyway, his purpose was to help her.
Ye Shoujun shouldn't be able to go every day, so pay attention when the two of them are together, less and less, make a note of the places where there are good things, and then bring them back by yourself. Wormwood made up her mind and said, "Okay, brother defender, you tell me in advance when you arrive, and I will go to your house to find you." "His house is closer to Hushan, so there is no need to detour.
"Okay, do you still want to pick wild vegetables?" He's almost there, and he wants to go back.
Seeing that the back basket used for his decoration was also full, and the time was almost up, he said: "Don't pick it up, Brother Defender is going back, right?" Let's go together! β
Even if the little girl knows the measure, it will be too late if she doesn't go back, and it will be more dangerous on the mountain at night. Ye Shoujun nodded and led her to take the lead in walking back.
