Chapter 7 Encounters the Mallet

Li Xin's face stiffened, and he was stunned for a while and explained: "My sister-in-law used to be afraid that you would run around when you were young and didn't take you up the mountain, but after a few days of observation, I felt that my son was teachable, and you were a good boy, so my sister-in-law decided to change her mind and take you up the mountain." ”

Before Li Xin's words were finished, Xiaobao had already prepared a firewood knife and two baskets with deep openings, this kind of basket had the advantage of being carried on his back, even in the deep mountains and old forests, he was not afraid of pouring out the contents inside, because it had a long round belly, but the opening was only two fist-sized openings.

Li Xing took Xiaobao's basket, walked a few steps, turned around again, and asked Xiaobao if he wanted to carry him? Xiaobao looked at Li Xin, who was out of breath after not taking a few steps, and his head shook like a rattle.

At the foot of the mountain, there were groups of people digging wild vegetables or picking up some mushrooms, maybe the popularity of the original owner was not good, they just stared at Li Xin curiously, and lowered their heads to do their own work. However, Grandma Dongzi came over with Dongzi to greet Li Xin, and told Li Xin not to go deep into the mountains, there were many fierce beasts inside, and few people who went in could come out.

Li Xin looked at Dongzi, who was about the same age as Xiaobao, and was also skinny, because she was thin, her eyes were very big, she smiled and thanked Grandma Dongzi, and Grandma Dongzi waved her hand: "It's nothing, living a good life is better than anything else." Li Xin nodded unquestioningly.

He Xiaobao searched for a long time to find some dandelions and lichens or something, but the bottom of the basket was not covered, and Li Xin was a little deflated. Chopping the trunk of the tree with a firewood knife to vent his anger, Xiaobao hurriedly comforted Li Xin: "Sister-in-law, everyone is the same, there are not many of them, you see that Grandma Dongzi on the side is not much, at this time, it happens to be green and yellow, and there is not much to eat in the mountains, in fact, there is not much, and my sister-in-law is already very good." ”

Li Xin looked at an old man and a young man not far away pulling some wild vegetable heads on the ground, looked down at Xiaobao and asked, "Are there only two of them in their family?" ”

Xiaobao stared at Li Xin incredulously, as if he wanted to see clearly what his sister-in-law who had been chattering for the past few days had in her head, and after looking at it for a while, she felt that her sister-in-law had nothing else to look good at except being fat, so she said: "They still have uncles and aunts in their family, and Dongzi also has an older sister, but she has married to the next village, but Dongzi has been close to her grandmother since she was a child." ”

"Oh!" Well, Li Xin admitted that he was too careful, thinking that only their grandchildren were left in the family. Li Xin glanced at the little wild vegetables in the basket, looked down the mountain unconvinced, and said to Xiaobao after making up his mind: "Xiaobao, sister-in-law is going around here, you and Grandma Dongzi will go back first, if you are hungry, you can take some cakes to eat first, if you are afraid, you will be at Grandma Dongzi's house, and wait for your sister-in-law to go back to pick you up." ”

After speaking, Li Xin took all the few wild vegetables in his basket to Xiaobao's basket, patted Xiaobao's ass and said go, Xiaobao turned around and ran towards Grandma Dongzi step by step, and after seeing that Xiaobao had already joined Grandma Dongzi, Li Xin walked into the mountains with confidence.

The more you go inside, the denser the tree becomes, Li Xin almost has to bend down to twist his fat body and continue to go in, fortunately, he has a firewood knife in his hand, Li Xin is not too difficult to walk, fortunately, Li Xin has the experience of walking this kind of deep mountain and old forest in his previous life, walking along one direction and looking at the yin and yang side of the trunk, and making marks along the way, I don't know how long I walked, Li Xin's stomach began to sing the empty city plan, and he didn't plan to come to the deep mountains and old forests when he came out in the morning, so Li Xin didn't bring any dry food.

Just when Li Xin thought that he had found nothing. Sharp eyes, saw a large clump of porcini mushrooms, there are still a lot of them, Li Xin lowered his head and used a firewood knife to pick it up first, and then picked it up with his hands when it was safe, you must know that there are snakes near the porcini mushrooms, and I don't know if those who say that they can reach out to pick up mushrooms are lucky, or they have never picked up mushrooms at all.

After picking up some mushrooms scattered, Li Xin saw that the sunlight that penetrated into the forest was getting less and less, so he wanted to go back, and after walking a few steps, Li Xin retreated back the same way, and then carefully identified the plant that was suspected to be a mallet on the ground.
