Chapter 2 Rushing to the Mountain

After eating boiled eggs and drinking meat porridge, the east is already red.

With more and more people rushing to the mountains, the market located in the wilderness has finally gained a little more popularity.

Mu Tu stood up and shouted to the busy proprietress, "Aunt Wang settles the bill." ”

"Come on! A pot of meat porridge is a silver coin, a boiled egg is an iron coin, Amu asks for a pot of meat porridge and ten boiled eggs, just two silver coins. ”

"Hmm." After kicking Dahei, who was still licking the basin, Mu Tu took out two silver coins from the wallet tied to the waistband of his trousers, and reluctantly put them into the hands of the proprietress.

One silver coin equals ten iron coins, one gold coin equals ten silver coins, and one spirit crystal equals ten gold coins.

Eat and drink Lazar, and ask for money for everything.

The poor men in the village are eager to use one coin for two, and Mutu is no exception.

The registration of the martial arts academy alone requires one spirit crystal, and if the assessment is passed, another ten spirit crystals will be paid for tuition a year.

Tuition fees do not include room and board, it is said that you have to apply for a card to use the martial arts venue, not to mention the qi and blood pills used in those spiritual meals and minors, in short, you need money to die.

Rushing to the mountains every day, the income in a day is only seven or eight silver coins, and in the past three years, Mutu Province has only accumulated twenty-seven spirit crystals.

This means that even if he is admitted to the Martial Academy, he must think of ways to earn extra money, otherwise he will not be able to support the cost of the Martial Academy.

Da Hei is old, even if he can still fight the wild wolf alone, but the hair loss is getting more and more serious, and his physical fitness has declined greatly.

In order to save money, Mu Tu can make his own dry food and make meat porridge, but he can't bear to let the dog follow him to eat hard dough cakes.

Daikoku had saved his life, more than once.

And every time the pheasants and hare caught in the mountain, the dog can account for half of the credit.

I was hungry at noon, and I had no conditions, so I had to solve it in the mountains.

In the afternoon, I sold mountain goods and went home, and I could make my own dinner.

But in order to save time, this meal in the morning must be solved in the city.

I don't know if the dog is really refined and knows how to be considerate of him, so he doesn't eat egg whites, or he doesn't like to eat them at all, anyway, the protein every day goes into Mu Tu's stomach.

His appetite is similar to that of Dahei, and he is particularly able to eat, and a pot of meat porridge can hold at least four bowls.

Every day he evened out one bowl, leaving three bowls for Dahei, ten egg whites, plus some dry food, which was even larger than the adult men in the town who did not work.

"Wang~"

Xu Dahei thought that he had earned a bowl of meat porridge today, and he was excited, and before leaving, he wagged his tail at the proprietress for the first time.

Mu Tu touched his stomach and left the market, and stayed behind the dog slowly.

Da Hei Sahuan rushed into the mountain road, ran a distance and then stuck out his tongue and turned back, as if urging him to hurry up and hurry up.

Slowly, the red glow faded, the sun rose in the east, and the mountains and forests suddenly became bright.

This is followed by an increase in temperature and evaporation of dew.

An hour later, the trail was nowhere to be found.

Mu Tu took out the mountain knife from the back basket and kept clearing the barricades.

After he crossed the dense bush, he had officially stepped into the periphery of Qianqiu Mountain.

This is a black pine forest, and the sun shines through the foliage, sprinkling large golden spots.

They had been walking for more than two hours straight and needed a break to recuperate.

Mu Tu greeted the dog, unloaded the basket at his feet, and then sat on a large bluestone to cool off.

It was a hot day in July, but it was very cool in the mountains and forests, and gusts of mountain wind blew to dry the sweat.

Mu Tu reached into the frame, opened the water bladder, first drank two sips by himself, and then poured it into the palm of his hand to beckon Dahei: "Come here, drink some water." ”

Da Hei got up and trotted in front of Mu Tu, stretched out his big flesh-red tongue, and rolled the water into his mouth.

After a few sips, the strength was restored.

He ran away disobediently, wandering around the black pine forest.

After resting for more than ten minutes, Mu Tu beckoned to the dog and prepared to continue his journey.

This is the outermost hill on the eastern side of the Thousand Hills Mountains, and Mu Tu needs to climb over it to reach the halfway point of the second hill, where there are traps and small traps he has buried.

"Gone, Dahei, what are you doing there?"

"Wang, Wang!"

Da Hei ran over to his trouser legs, staring at a black pine tree and pulling it hard.

"Stop, no matter how hard you try, your pants will be ripped off."

Mu Tu followed it to the black pine, and when he saw the dog looking up, he followed its gaze.

It took several minutes to find a bird's nest among the branches of a tree very high.

"Isn't it just a turtledove nest? As for being so excited? Gone, gone, two eggs are not enough to stuff your teeth! ”

Mu Tu turned around to leave, not wanting to dig out the nest.

Looking at the color, although it is a new nest this year, the location is too high, more than ten meters, and it is not cost-effective to climb up and waste time and physical strength.

"Wow!"

"Wang, Wang, Wang......"

Da Hei called a few more times, pulling him away.

"Well, you're defeated, dead dog!"

Mu Tu cursed, afraid of tearing his clothes, took off his upper body and put it on the stone slab, sighed into the palm of his hand, and began to climb the tree.

Fishing and touching shrimp, swimming and climbing trees are almost all skills that must be mastered by children in the village.

In six or seven minutes, Mu Tu climbed to the location of the bird's nest.

But the nest is not on the main trunk, but on a thick side branch.

Mu Tu stepped on the side branches, carefully moved half a meter horizontally, one hand on the branch above the nest, and the other hand bent down to pick up the egg.

The process went smoothly, took out two turtledove eggs and put them in his mouth, and went down the tree in one minute.

After being down-to-earth, my legs are rough and red.

Mu Tu spit out the egg and quickly took the water bladder and rinsed his mouth.

"I've got it, here you go. Didn't you just eat ten boiled eggs in the morning? You're hungry. ”

Mu Tu bent his hand and placed the two eggs in front of Daikoku, motioning for him to eat them.

Da Hei shook his head, "Wang, Wang!" ”

Mu Tu saw that Da Hei was abnormal, and said in his heart, is there something strange about this egg?

Thinking of this, he brought the two eggs in front of his eyes to take a closer look, and really found something going on.

"These two eggs don't look the same!"

One is an authentic turtledove egg, but the other is slightly smaller, crystal clear, and not ordinary.

"This one can't be a spirit egg, right? Rich, rich, worth several gold coins. ”

Mu Tu glanced at the dog beside him, and the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became, and he almost couldn't help but hug and kiss it.

Da Hei rolled his eyes, his dog-faced face disgusted, as if mocking his stupidity just now.

The two eggs were carefully put away, put them in the wooden basket, put back on the short sleeves, and the man and the dog continued to hurry.

On the way, I met a group of pheasants coming down the mountain, clucking.

Da Hei only glanced at it, but did not chase it.

Climbing to the top of the mountain, the wind suddenly became stronger and whined.

A big gray-yellow hare, seeing that someone was coming, ran down in a panic.

Big Black's body was like an arrow, and it suddenly jumped in front of the hare.

The hare "zigzag" fled, jumping between the rocks and grasses of the mountains, and the speed was also extremely fast.

In the blink of an eye, the hare and the dog ran out for hundreds of meters, and after a few minutes, they were gone.
