Chapter 344: The Spirit of the Jungle (44)

Previous Chapter

For Yang Congxun, September 19 of the ninth year of Jiaqing must be a day that is not easy to forget, because everything that happened on this day subverted his existing cognition.

Prior to this, 'referring to a deer as a horse' was not only an allusion that only existed in history books, but also had a particularly deep derogatory connotation.

However, with a single whistle, the sparrow summoned from the forest a horn that was branching like a bush on its head, and its whole body was larger than the healthy horse it had ridden before, and its coat was gray and black, except for a large man with a large beard like white hair under his neck...... Deer?

I saw that the behemoth, which weighed more than two hundred pounds, gently shook the horns on its head, and came to the cart with meek steps, and knelt on the ground with its front legs bent forward.

When the sparrow grinned and tied the cart tightly to the big deer with a lasso, the latter straightened up, stood up from the ground, and even snorted at the sparrow as if it were flattering?

Is this a deer or a horse?!

Xu is saw the confusion on the faces of Yang Congxun and Hu San, and Qingli, who had previously cocked his tail to the sky, suddenly pouted his butt higher: "This kind of big deer called Kandahan is a pack beast specially domesticated by Chu'er and their tribes, not only is it stronger than the pack horses that you Han people often drive, but it is also better at walking through dense forests without roads. ”

After that, Qingli winked at Hu Sanmei: "This kind of deer will go to the forest to find moss, ground ferns and other plants to feed themselves, unlike horses who have to be fed food every day...... Bad thing, don't you say that there is still a shortage of laborers at home to cultivate and drive? Shall I ask Chu'er to give us a big deer like this? ”

Take a look, take a look, it's a lot of work together, Xiao Qingli, who was originally very good, followed Hu San, who was a fan of money, to learn badly!

Just when Hu San looked up and down at the driving moose with a surprised face, the steady and straightforward sparrow smiled sweetly at him: "That's Qingli teasing you, this moss fern that moose loves to eat is only found in a few nearby mountains, and you can't go far at all, and how can you work for others in vain?" ”

With that, the sparrow stretched out two white fingers and gently wiped the front of the cart, rubbing a little white powder (the salty salt that Hu San wiped on the chicken thighs) stuck there to the fingertips.

Then the sparrow put its salted finger to the moose's mouth, and the latter immediately happily stretched out its thick tongue and licked the girl's finger with relish.

"This moose is a salt-loving nature, and every few days they gather under the rocky cliffs to lick the fine saline soil stuck to the surface of the rocks, and even if they are being hunted by predators, they have to run desperately to lick it."

After saying that, the spirit bird raised its head slightly, and a pair of watery eyes looked at Yang Congxun's eyes eagerly: "Now, do you know how important it is to our tribe that only the fine salt sold in the market outside the mountain is?" ”

Well, got it, what a big deal.

Buy! Buy! Buy!

It's a big deal, you can use all this money on the ground to buy salt.

Seeing Yang Congxun's fingers on the ground and the broken silver and copper coins in the baggage, the sparrow immediately smiled into a flower: "Then I will thank Yang Gongzi for his generosity for the aunts and sisters in the tribe." ”

After speaking, the long eyelashes of the spirit sparrow flickered twice, and then nodded at Yang Congxun and Hu San with a smile: "Please rest assured, our tribe will definitely not snatch the money of the two." We have a lot of precious leathers in our stockade, and we will surely return with a full load of them. ”

As if to strengthen the persuasiveness, as soon as the sparrow finished speaking, he patted the slender and fitting leather robe on his body with his hand: "For example, the fish skin coat on my body is sewn with the best fish skin, and it will not stick to the snow and not get wet when it rains." ”

"Fish...... Fishskin?! ”

Well, this is the second time that Yang Congxun has been subverted today.

In Yang Congxun's impression, the so-called fish skin should be the sticky and thin translucent film on the surface of the carp's body after scraping the scales.

Anyway, this stuff stew soup is good to replenish collagen, but it can be made into clothes...... Anyway, this kind of clothes made of fish skin Yang Congxun would never dare to wear it.

Seeing that the sparrow nodded at himself again and again with an encouraging face, Yang Congxun blurted out: "Why don't you take off this leather robe and touch it for me." ”

In order to alleviate the current embarrassment, Yang Congxun coughed heavily, and pointed to the blue cloth burden next to the pile of broken silver and copper coins with his hand: "Little meaning, small meaning, inside that burden is the head jewelry prepared by Huang Er's grandmother for the people in the village, and you can also choose one of them." ”

Hearing that there was actually jewelry in the blue cloth baggage, the sparrow's water-cutting autumn pupils suddenly lit up, and the empty hand (the other was in the moose's mouth) untied the burden twice, and then covered his mouth in disbelief and exclaimed: "Oh my God! Gold?! Are these given to us by Huang Er's grandmother? ”

Even Qingli jumped forward: "Wow, so many? Good Chu'er, people want it too! ”

Looking at the joyful selection in the pile of jewelry, from time to time to pick out one on the head, and then let the other party evaluate one or two, the little fox Hu San nodded at Yang Congxun thoughtfully: "Sure enough, women know women best, according to me, Huang Er's grandmother gave jewelry this hand is high...... Hey, that hairpin can't be sent! ”

Unexpectedly, the sparrow picked among a large number of head jewelry, and finally took out a copper hairpin with a thick and clumsy style and inserted it into the waterfall-like green silk.

Why did the sparrow choose it?

From the point of view of quality value alone, this copper hairpin is far from enough for the carving cost of those gold hairpins, let alone the materials.

However, the inside of this copper hairpin is hollow, and it is stuffed with a map that records the location of the buried treasure of the Wannu King!

Seeing Hu San shouting "no", the sparrow suddenly reluctantly pulled the copper hairpin off his head and held it in his hand: "Wasn't it for me?" What a pity. ”

Looking at Qingli's two bulging cheeks, Hu San swallowed a mouthful of cold saliva with a "grunt", raised a paw to pad the back of his head, and grinned at Lingque Qingli 'stupidly': "That, I mean, why do you want copper hairpins, isn't the jewelry made of gold next to it fragrant?" ”

Who knew that before the little fox's voice landed, the two of them nodded in unison: "It's not fragrant, those jewelry made of gold are not good." ”

Well, if I'm not mistaken, this should be the third mindset of today.

It is said that Yang Congxun is so old, and it is the first time he has seen someone who dares to say that gold is not good...... Don't you see the gold diggers of Erdaohezi Gold Mine in order to go down to the river to dig out a few more pieces of rice and placer gold, can't they wait to have a white knife in and a red knife out with those opponents who come to rob the mine?

However, God seems to want to help Yang Congxun deepen his impression today.

I saw that the two of them nodded towards Yang Congxun together: "Gold is really bad, it's not money!" ”

Gold, not money??
