Chapter 309: Earning Consent
Listening to the old man's tone so easy-going, it was in stark contrast to the questioning that morning. Feng Xiaoyue knew that he didn't have any malicious intentions, but today he brought down so many materials from the mountain behind his back, so he was still a little weak-hearted.
Since discovering that there was a flickering firelight here, Feng Xiaoyue deliberately walked a few steps to the side, thinking that under the backdrop of the light, he was hiding in the dark, and he shouldn't be so easy to find.
However, obviously, Feng Xiaoyue underestimated the eyesight of the old man and his old man, after all, after so many years of hunting in the mountains and forests, his skills were not learned in vain.
The skill of Shu Lao's barbecue is also extraordinary, I don't know what spices are put in, the rabbit is roasted and drips oil, and the flame is constantly wafting with bursts of fragrance, and the eight voices can't help but swallow saliva.
"Elder Shu is right, don't be embarrassed, Miss Feng, come over and let's eat together, these two rabbits he obviously prepared our share together, if it is not enough, there is a wild boar next to it."
Basheng said it bluntly, and the old man who provoked him was amused and annoyed, and he stretched out his hand to the side to hit him, and scolded with a smile.
"You stinky boy, you say it nicely, you actually did my master, but in the end everything fell on you alone."
"Isn't this the hardest and softest I know your old man, and I'm afraid that you won't be able to save this face, so I took the initiative to speak for you? Why are you still blaming me? ”
Eight sounds were beaten in vain, but he didn't mind, but snatched the dagger from his other hand, cut off a piece of roasted charred meat from the rabbit's back and handed it over. "This is to honor your old man, how about you taste it first?"
"I don't know who taught you, but you have learned these bad tricks, and you will borrow flowers to offer Buddha every day." Shu Lao scolded happily, but he still obediently ate the mouthful of barbecue.
The hot chat here made Feng Xiaoyue a little embarrassed to stand there alone, not to mention the successive invitations of Jian Basheng and Shu Lao, so she was embarrassed to refuse.
Now it is difficult to ride a tiger, Feng Xiaoyue had to take out the bark generously and put it on her side, pretending to be casual and walking over and sitting down, only hoping that the old man could ignore the object in his hand.
"In this way, then we will come over to occupy the light of the old tree, and we will definitely invite back next time we have the opportunity."
As soon as Feng Xiaoyue sat down, Basheng hurriedly tore a piece of the best roasted rabbit leg and came over, so that she couldn't help but thank her one after another.
"It's the most high-sounding thing to say. We don't have these fake things in the mountains, but it's really good. The old tree lowered his head to cut, and the other rabbit with a bowl of good only stretched out his left hand and swung it slightly twice.
"If you want to treat someone who is rare to come, then we are too rude. As for Basheng, a stinky boy, he has always only taken advantage of us, so how can we expect him to make any great achievements. ”
"You are talking nonsense, where am I so useless for what you say? As long as you wait for me for a day, the prey I brought back will be more than enough for you old men to eat. Basheng's mouth was full, but he still didn't forget to go back to the tree
Mouth.
Feng Xiaoyue smiled, but she could indeed feel the care and love of the old man for Basheng, so as for the disrespectful names in Basheng's words, I think they should be random names that don't mind each other.
After all, even if there is any hatred with people outside, the family members around him still quarrel today, and they will be reconciled tomorrow, and there is no such thing as holding grudges.
Just when Feng Xiaoyue was moved by the care and friendship between them in her heart, Shu Lao suddenly raised his head and looked at her, as if he wanted to seek Feng Xiaoyue's affirmation, and said with a smile.
"Listen, girl, if he wants to invite us once, he will have to make us wait for a day in vain. If there is such a space, a few of our old guys have already prepared it for you. ”
This was exactly what he said, and Basheng knew that it was irrefutable, so he simply stuffed another mouthful of barbecue into his mouth and closed his mouth.
"That's right." Feng Xiaoyue nodded in response with a smile, but she inadvertently found that Shu Lao's eyes had been staying on the pile of bark beside her, so that she couldn't help but tense the skin on her back, and her left hand on her knee was also tightly clenched into a fist.
"That's right, this," thinking that instead of being controlled by others, it was better to strike first, Feng Xiaoyue's new shirt gritted her teeth and was about to speak, but Shu Lao grabbed the conversation.
"Girl, after staying on that mountain for so long today, it should be as simple as just looking at the scenery, I think I also brought some things or scenery unique to the mountain."
The old man had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and it seemed that he didn't intend to ask the queen of the autumn, but Basheng listened to what he said, but he smiled very inappropriately, and patted his thigh with one hand without any image.
"Old Shu, what you said is so unreasonable, the things are scattered, how did the scenery bring you over? You can get it just from what he says, and if you want to see it, won't you be able to climb up at any time? ”
"You're so heartless, if you don't understand, don't interject casually, I'm talking to someone else's girl, what do you mean by breaking in half?" Although he sounded a little impatient, Shu Lao didn't intend to scold, and his helplessness could be faintly heard in his tone.
Feng Xiaoyue watched quietly from the side for a while, seeing that the two of them were talking like they were going to quarrel at any time, and couldn't help but raise her right eyebrow.
The matter was caused by herself, and if she didn't speak at this time, it would be too much to say. "Shu Lao doesn't have to be angry, you have watched Gongzi grow up since he was a child, and naturally he knows his temperament very well, he has always been such a person, why do you bother to be angry with yourself?"
"But your old man is really experienced, and you can even guess this. To tell you the truth, I did find a view on that mountain, and I painted it on the bark of my tree, and if you are interested, I will show you the ugly. ”
Feng Xiaoyue said, taking the bark in her hand and holding it in her arms, but she didn't rush to open it, just quietly waiting for the old tree to change his mind.
And Shu Lao seemed to be able to guess that she had such a fluke mentality, let go of the half-gnawed bone in her hand, and nodded with an amiable smile on her face.
"The old man hasn't seen someone else's painting for a long time
, but I'm really a little curious, so there is Miss Lao, so that those of us who were born in the mountains and forests can open our eyes. ”
When the words landed, Shu Lao also picked up a long piece of firewood placed at his feet, and gently poked the eight sounds that were feasting.
"If you can, let this stinky boy learn more skills, so that he can stay in the mountains honestly, and don't think about running around like the ownerless wind all day long."
How is the description in these words somewhat metaphorical, Feng Xiaoyue temporarily stopped the heat, the cranky thoughts in her mind, and she collapsed the bark on the ground with her eyes down, and rolled in the direction of the old tree.
Under the light of the fire next to it, the bark of the tree suddenly appeared the direction of several large rivers.
Although the angle of each scroll is different, and the speed of the water is even more different, the general outline of the painting is the same. Na Shu is well-informed, and he is particularly familiar with the mountain situation around the cliff and the boundary mountain, so he naturally will not feel unfamiliar with this waterway in Feng Xiaoyue's painting.
He kept his eyes open for a long time before he raised his eyes and reached out to roll up the bark in the direction of Feng Xiaoyue.
"There is no such scenery under the mountain, it seems that it is your fantasy, girl." Hearing this, Basheng immediately looked at Feng Xiaoyue with wide eyes in surprise, but she had a clear understanding of Shu Lao's words.
"Just because it doesn't exist now doesn't mean it won't appear in the future. Something that you have never seen before, can you deny its existence like this, it is too certain. ”
The old tree obviously saw what he meant, but he didn't throw it into the fire and burn it, indicating that there may be some room for things to turn around. The stone in Feng Xiaoyue's heart dropped a little, and she reached out and took the bark roll back.
"Since I have this idea to draw it, then I have the confidence to make it a reality, but I don't know if the old man will give me this opportunity."
"The old man can still see someone talking about the conditions like this," the old man pulled eight times to break the branch next to him and threw it into the fire.
When the dry wood met the flames, it instantly fused into one, and from time to time it crackled from under the ashes of the flames, as if dancing with the four sides of the growing darkness.
"Since the girl has already made up her mind, why should she come and ask me, even if I have the heart to stop the girl's actions, I may not be able to make the girl change her mind. In that case, why should I bother so much? ”
The flames burned extremely hotly, roasting warmly on people's bodies, and immediately dispelled the chill that was constantly invading the surrounding and invading bodies. The tree elder put his hands on his knees and sat upright on the stone with his eyes closed.
Just when Feng Xiaoyue and the two of them thought that he was going to fall asleep, he said leisurely, "Okay, as long as the girl doesn't give us this pure land, the girl can go whatever she wants." ”
"Anyway, Basheng, this stinky boy, now identifies you, girl, and is almost inseparable from you. If I really want to do something to you, I'm afraid he'll have to fight with me, and I'm not willing to take such a risk. ”
"What are you talking about, how can I be so disobedient." Basheng was afraid that Feng Xiaoyue would believe Shu Lao's words, and looked down on himself, so he hurriedly denied it.
