Under the bed opposite, there was a rectangular bag, and in terms of the size and shape of the bag, Suzaku had already judged what it contained.

That's not a fishing gear bag.

Suzaku was a veteran in this line of work in his previous life, and there was a big river not far from his home.

Children from rural areas have their own way of finding happiness. For children growing up by the river, most of the happiness is related to water.

As the saying goes, "Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to eat the water." ”

There are great resources, but can they be wasted?

So, the whole village, swimming, fishing, boating...... One is more skilled than the other.

Fishing, in particular, is a great weapon for cultivating the mind, killing time, and even competitive competitions.

Suzaku has been exposed to it since he was a child, coupled with his intelligence and diligence, his skills are already at the upper middle level.

In the past 20 years, there has been no interruption, and from time to time I have brought fishing gear to have a good time.

Suzaku happily pulled out the fishing gear bag, opened it and saw that it was fully equipped and everything it should have. This time, you can really show your skills and have plenty of food and clothing. With his own skills, he can catch enough fish in minutes.

No longer hesitate at the moment, put the bow and crossbow and fishing gear bag on the workbench, silently say "go out", and return to reality.

Suzaku, who had a bottom in his heart, was shining with brilliance, and even Rhubarb sat up straight, tilting his head and staring with blinking eyes.

"Walking ——, rhubarb, we set off ——, to our new life. Out - Hair ——。 ”

Suzaku pinched his waist, stood still in a lunge, and stretched out his other arm at a forty-five-degree angle to strike a charging stance. Immediately, the body rushed out and trotted forward.

Rhubarb was stunned for a moment, still thinking about the little master's words, why did he run away? So he shook his head and chased after him with all his might.

The creek is not wide, two or three meters away, the stream is very clear, even the aquatic plants and large and small stones at the bottom of the water are clearly presented in front of you, and occasionally there are one or two small fish, shuttling between the aquatic plants and stones.

The grass on both sides of the creek makes the stream like a green ribbon that floats out of the mountains and flies into the distance.

Mountain, close. After a while, the feet turned into brown stones, and the mountain was right in front of me.

Or because of the proximity to human settlements, there are no big trees here, each one grows very vigorously, and among the mountains and rocks, there are also unknown shrubs growing in a mess, connected together, showing their vitality.

Following the direction of the stream, by the stream, a path had been trodden out, curved upwards, and turned again, and was no longer visible.

Suzaku follows the path all the way up, and she wants to explore the source of the stream.

Because there is a high possibility that the creek will connect to a waterhole.

After walking for a long time, the trees became thicker, but the stream still had no end in sight.

Suzaku had rested a few times, and took out food from the warehouse to replenish his energy along with rhubarb. There were a few times when Suzaku really wanted to give up, wanted to turn around and go back, even if it was to beg from house to house, it was a hundred times better than facing countless possible unknowns.

But the unyielding nature made her persevere, and she wanted to use her own hands to build her own future.

If you look back, she will be greeted not only by the ridicule and contempt of others, but also by her own compromise on life, afraid that she will never come out in this life.

That's not what you want!

Your bottom line requirements should also be upright.

The sky was getting dark, my vision was blurry, and I walked on the road, my swollen feet were numb and I didn't obey the call.

"It seems that we can't go again today, let's continue tomorrow."

Suzaku wants to go straight into the warehouse and lie down on the bed to rest. When he saw the pitiful appearance of Rhubarb with his tail between his legs and trembling, Suzaku couldn't bear to leave.

"Since you will not leave me, I will be close to you."

Suzaku took out his bow and crossbow, found a large stone, cleaned the ground, then put on the futon, leaned against the stone, closed his eyes and rested. Rhubarb snuggled up to the Suzaku side, or knew that the owner would accompany him, so he quieted down and didn't tremble.

The night in the mountains is, for some, a pleasure. Get away from the hustle and bustle of the world, blend into the embrace of nature, and get spiritual sublimation.

But for a ten-year-old child, what a test and torment.

The surroundings are dark, and there are rows of black shadows moving with the wind at the pole of the eye, and there may be a sound of "all the ropes" around you, I don't know what kind of creatures are walking or crawling, and there are occasional roars of large animals in the distance, which makes people feel more stressed.

Endless fear could not withstand the tiredness of the body at this time. Suzaku, who was extremely tired, fell into a deep sleep, and the bow and crossbow in his arms, which he held tightly in his arms, left the restraints and rolled to the side where he fell.

Suzaku was awakened by the smell of blood.

"Ahh

In the sleepy eyes, the bloody nose, subconsciously touched it with his hand, the furry didn't know what it was, Suzaku immediately woke up, screamed in fear, quickly got up, jumped and leaned against the boulder.

In the process of panic, his hands slapped a lot of bloody handprints on the boulder, which made Suzaku's soul frighten.

"My hand...... It's okay, my neck ...... It's okay,......"

Make sure you don't get hurt, where does the blood come from?

"Rhubarb, rhubarb—"

Suzaku turned around and looked at the scene of the incident, and only then did he let go of his heart.

Rhubarb squatted there in a good manner, staring at himself in confusion, not understanding why the master gave him a "big gift", so panicked.

Yes, it really is a great gift.

A gray hare, bitten by the throat, lay in the place where he had just slept, and the blood was scattered all over the place.

"This is ......, and this is what you caught?"

Suzaku asked Rhubarb suspiciously. Rhubarb wagged his tail as if he understood.

"You can't do that in the future, you know! Scared the hell out of me——。 ”

The front also taught rhubarb a lesson, and the back snickered with joy.

"Hare, good stuff, roasted and eaten later. Not now, first find a waterhole, and then find a safe place, but I can't stand such a fright. ”

Suzaku also roughly guessed the ins and outs of the matter, and must have been asleep when the blind hare went to the stream to drink water, and was caught by the rhubarb, and he was reluctant to eat it, so he sent it to his master to ask for credit.

After packing up my things, I took out the food and shared the rhubarb, and then embarked on the road of tracing back to the source.

Walking and stopping all the way, it was almost noon, and a high cliff appeared in front of it, and the high cliff towered into the clouds. Stay at the bottom of the cliff, the path stops abruptly, at the bottom of the cliff, there is a round hole of about 50 centimeters, and the stream bubbles out of the hole. The amount of water is not large, only about one-fifth of the bottom.

"Alas——, God is unfair."

Suzaku definitely didn't expect such an outcome. After looking around, it looked like a recessed valley, surrounded on three sides, with only one exit left on the way to come.

was annoyed, but Rhubarb suddenly let out a wail, and his body shook and collapsed.

"Whew-"

There was a low roar, and then a huge figure slowly appeared by the stream.
