In the year 21892, there was a river about 20 meters wide in the east of the Moyuan Empire.

Forenoon.

There was a splash of water.

"Xiao Xuan, the fish is here!"

A large white fish fell on the gravel ground by the river, churning and turning.

A handsome little boy was sitting on a big tree that had fallen to the ground and playing, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly ducked back.

By the small river not far from him, a teenager stood in the river with his trouser legs in his arms, the water was deep to his knees, the young man's eyebrows exuded a kind of intimidating temperament that was not commensurate with his age, he walked ashore with a branch, stepped on the stone with his bare feet, laughed and said: "Xiao Xuan, don't be so cowardly, don't be a man." My brother must not be a coward. ”

The little boy frowned and said in a childish voice, "Brother, I'm not cowardly, I thought I was a monster." ”

The young man laughed and said, "Then you pick up the fish, and we will grill the fish and eat it." ”

The little boy carefully sat down on the trunk of the tree and landed his feet on the ground before he came to the big fish, which was still fluttering, which was a foot long and looked very heavy and powerful.

The little boy was not afraid, and with a bend of his arms, he held the big fish in his arms, but almost at the same time, the slippery body of the fish broke free from the ground, and the tail slapped the little boy on the shoulder.

The young man was afraid that the little boy would be injured, so he hurriedly said, "Xiao Xuan, get out of the way, I know that you are bold." I got it. ”

The little boy agreed, stepped back, and the boy put the branch in his hand into the cheek of the fish and pierced the head of the big fish, and picked it up, and the tail of the fish was still swinging.

The little boy watched with wide and beautiful eyes as his brother took out a knife from behind his back, squatted on the river, hung the scales and washed the belly of the fish, and the blood and cut off the internal organs were washed down the river.

The little boy frowned slightly and said, "Brother, you have soiled the river." ”

The young man had very short hair and looked very lean, and his eyes glanced sharply into the river and said, "Xiao Xuan, do you know that the river will never be dirty. ”

The little boy also looked at the river flowing down and asked curiously, "Where did all that filthy thing go?"

The boy said, "Then I don't know, anyway, the dirty things are gone, and it is said that the river disappeared at the end, and no one saw its end." ”

The boy carried the washed fish to the edge of the broken tree, took out a paper bag from his body, sprinkled the salt in it on the fish, put the fish on a pile of dead grass, built a barbecue grill out of large stones, piled broken branches and dead grass in it, and took out a lighter.

The little boy said to the side, "Brother, shall I light a fire?"

The boy looked at the little boy who was squatting on the side and said, "Okay, you come, I will only give you one chance." ”

The little boy happily took the lighter and scratched it on the rough surface of a stone chip, and flames suddenly appeared on the lighter.

The boy said, "Quickly light up the grass underneath." ”

The little boy put the lighter under the weedy branch in his little hand, and the flame immediately ignited.

The young man took back the lighter from his younger brother's hand and extinguished it, put it away, touched the little boy's head lightly twice, and said, "Xiao Xuan, you are quite powerful." ”

The boy's name is Kai Xuan, who is twelve years old, and the little boy's name is Kai Xuan, who is his younger brother, and he is only five years old this year.

They live in Shuikou Village, two miles away from the river, after thousands of years of free development, at least half of the area has become villages and towns, but unlike other normal cities in the Moyuan Empire, the city is in a state of complete free development, no government has made any development plans, there is no clear distinction between towns and villages, there are many large houses are called towns, and the residential areas with relatively simple and scattered houses are called villages, and there is no unified regulation on the name, which is gradually formed naturally over thousands of years.

Their father, Lao Kai, did not have a surname, because Lao Kai's parents gave birth to him soon after he was sent to the Colony City, and he was killed before he could name him, and he was raised and wandered to Shuikou Village, where he was always called Xiao Kai, and when he became an adult, he collected old goods for a living, and everyone began to call him Lao Kai, so his two sons took Kai as their surname.

In the city of the jungle, he can change from an orphan to a person who supports himself, and he can also earn money by his craft, he is a very capable person, Lao Kai is a very shrewd person, he built his own house in Shuikou Village, and married a virtuous wife Hongyu.

Hongyu's parents were originally rich families in Shuikou Village and opened two shops, but when Hongyu was ten years old, his father broke his legs for no reason, and since then he has been unable to move, and the family has begun to decline.

Soon, the big fish is grilled and has an attractive aroma,

Kai Hao had already sharpened two pairs of chopsticks with a branch, handed a pair to Xiao Xuan, and said, "Let's eat delicious." ”

Xiao Xuan grinned and said, "Brother, it's so fragrant, my saliva is dripping." ”

Kai Hao put a piece of meat on the belly of the fish and stretched it to Xiao Xuan's mouth and said, "Open your mouth." ”

Xiao Xuan gently blew the fish meat with his small mouth before opening his mouth.

Kai Hao saw that he had eaten the fish before he took back the chopsticks, and while eating the meat on the back of the fish, he said, "It tastes really good, better than the rabbit meat I caught last time." ”

Xiao Xuan nodded and said, "The fish is delicious." Brother, let's catch fish again tomorrow, shall we?"

Kai Hao smiled and said, "Then don't tell your mother that we come to catch fish when you go home, otherwise you won't let me bring you here in the future." ”

Xiao Xuan asked curiously, "Brother, why is my mother so opposed to us coming here to play?"

Kai Hao looked around and said, "Mom cares about us, there are often bad people by this river, and last year, a person in the village was killed by robbers. ”

Xiao Xuan looked around vigilantly when he heard this, and whispered, "Brother, then let's finish eating and go back, shall we?"

Kai Hao laughed and said: "Xiao Xuan, you are a coward, what are you afraid of, those two robbers were later caught by the villagers and sent to the mine prison." ”

Xiao Xuan said curiously, "Brother, why do robbers want to kill people?"

Kai Hao said: "Eat fish and meat well, Xiao Xuan, you are young, but you have the most problems." ”

Xiao Xuan narrowed his big eyes, and said with a look of enjoying the delicious food on his little face: "Brother, if you catch another big fish, we will take it home and eat it with our mother at night." ”

Kai Hao pinched his little mouth and said with a smile: "Little fool, then mom don't beat my ass with a stick." ”

Xiao Xuan said: "Brother, last time my mother spanked you, you didn't cry. If you let my mother eat such delicious fish, let her spank me, right?"

Kai Xuan cut off and said, "Xiao Xuan, you are only five years old, and your mother is reluctant to beat you." You see I'm not crying, but how much it hurts, you know, my mother doesn't show mercy at all. ”

Xiao Xuan pouted and said, "Brother, the last time my mother beat you, it was for your own good, you did something wrong, and I have to punish you, otherwise you won't remember." ”

Kai Hao couldn't help but smile and said: "You have a good memory, eat quickly, we have to hurry back after eating, don't be discovered by my mother." ”
