Because of the proximity to the back mountain, there are not many fields, but there are still people working in the fields.

Seeing the two of them, one didn't know each other, and the other was because the Wang family had a bad reputation, so they basically ignored the two.

For their ignorance, Shiliu is happy and relaxed. Because she didn't know how to communicate with these people at all.

However, Zhang Lecheng looked at Shiliu several times worriedly along the way, and he thought to himself that his cousin's life here must not be easy, otherwise the villagers in the same village would not say hello.

"Do you always look at me? Watch your step, the thatch is starting to grow here. ”

"Oh, good. How long will it take to get to where you are? "Since the grass is starting to flourish here, it naturally means that there are fewer people here, why is no one coming here? Actually, it's not far from the village.

Shi Liu pushed away the more and more lush grass and trees in front of him with his hand, turned around and said, "It's almost there, there is a cave at the entrance to the mountain pass." Are you afraid? ”

"How could I be afraid, what are you kidding." Zhang Lecheng will never admit that he is a little scared no matter what.

"If you're not afraid, come with me." Shiliu said as he turned around and entered the cave after going around a big tree by the river.

The sun had already set, and this side was at the foot of the mountain, and the villagers were able to bypass it after some bloody events that happened here more than ten years ago.

A gust of wind blew, and the sound of rattling sounded everywhere, making it more and more eerie.

Zhang Lecheng couldn't see Shi Liu's figure at once, and her chickens didn't know where to go.

Immediately called: "Wait for me." ”

After a while, I heard a faint voice with an echo: "Hurry up." ”

was so frightened that Zhang Lecheng couldn't help but shudder.

Mustering up the courage to follow quickly, he went around the tree, and saw a swarthy cave at the mouth of the cave, and he could not even see his cousin and her chickens.

"Cousin, cousin, are you in there?"

"yes, I'm in there, you take off your shoes and come down to the river."

Yes? Shoes?

Then he saw that there was actually a pair of shoes on the side, and fortunately, his cousin was there.

He immediately took off his shoes, pulled up his trousers and jumped into the river, fortunately, the river here only overflowed his calves, which was really strange, the river below looked quite deep, but it was very shallow above.

I entered the cave with a little trepidation, and my hand holding the sickle trembled faintly.

"Cousin, where are you? We should have brought a flint, it's too dark to see anything. ”

"Let's touch the fish and shrimp here, and the mussels. There are few people here, and the mussels are so big. ”

"Really? Then I started touching it too. ”

With a cautious heart, he bent down and slashed his side with the scythe, then put the scythe into the basket and put his hand in the water, and he could feel that sometimes fish would swim past him.

It made him feel a lot more relaxed. At least there are fish here, and nothing strange.

"Haha, I caught a fish." From not far from the front, there was a happy voice from his cousin, which made Zhang Lecheng also happy, and at the same time a little annoyed that he was not even as good as a little girl.

It's pitch black here, and I don't know how my cousin caught the fish.

He touched it again, and picked up everything that he thought might be mussels or snails and put them in the basket, thinking that there would be no fish, and there must be some other harvest.

Touching him, he felt like there was something like a river mussel, just... Isn't that a bit too much?

I wasn't sure, but I still put it in the back basket, and now I felt quite heavy on my back, and I couldn't help asking, "Cousin, are you okay?" Why don't we go out first. ”

With the help of Jiuwu, Shi Liu caught two big fish and a small fish, and killed them directly with a dagger, otherwise they would not have run away if they were put in the basket.

Of course, the basket rests on a rock jutting out of the cave.

That's why it's possible for Shiliu to catch fish with both hands.

Jiuwu has also been guiding her to get some river mussels. Especially pearl-containing mussels.

In particular, it is said that there is a large river mussel with a particularly round and large pearl, which may be sold for a lot of money.

It's just a little bit still in there. And it's a bit big, and when she comes back, she probably won't be able to hold the small basket full of things anymore.

Therefore, when Shi Liu heard Zhang Lecheng say that he wanted to go out, she said: "Cousin, you go inside about twenty steps, and then stop, I will give you the small basket, and you take it out." I...... I can't lift it. ”

I wanted to say let him take it out, and she walked inside, but Jiuwu reminded her not to say that, otherwise he would definitely not be at ease.

That's right, after all, it's still a child.

So when Zhang Lecheng took the small basket handed to him by Shi Liu, it was quite heavy when he took it, and he thought no wonder she couldn't hold it.

"Cousin, let's get out quickly, we've gained enough. Otherwise, we can come back early tomorrow morning. ”

"Okay. You go out first, and I'll follow you. Saying that, the Shiliu people went into the cave with the ninety-five.

Then, according to the instructions of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, he touched the river mussel containing the big pearl with both hands, and heard Zhang Lecheng at the mouth of the cave shouting anxiously: "Cousin, are you still inside?" Come out of here. Didn't fall, did you? ”

Shi Liu said loudly: "It's okay, I found another big river mussel, haha... You wait for the meat. ”

Sure enough, I didn't wait long before I saw Shi Liu coming out of the cave.

Seeing him standing at the entrance of the cave with his things, Shi Liu couldn't help asking, "Why don't you go ashore and wait?" How tiring is this, and isn't it cold in the water all the time? ”

Anyway, Shi Liu felt that she felt quite cold after being in the river for a long time.

Zhang Lecheng smiled, and when he saw that she came out safely, he didn't say anything, climbed ashore, put down his trouser legs, and put on his shoes.

Seeing that the little rooster had been pecking at the big river mussel that the stone willow put on the bank last, he said admirably: "Cousin, you are too powerful." Such a big mussel, I must have thought it was a stone. I've touched a smaller one before, so I'm a little unsure. ”

"Let's see what we take. If there are pebbles in it, you can throw it away and save some effort. ”

"That's right." As he spoke, he poured out the contents of the basket.

Shi Liu simply flipped through the small basket, threw away a few stones that were deliberately loaded in at random, and it was done.

Then I saw that Zhang Lecheng had been pulling.

Moved a few steps and squatted beside him and said, "Yes, I look at a lot, and the snails are enough to fry a plate." ”

Zhang Lecheng was embarrassed to be praised, glanced at Shi Liu and said, "Actually, the harvest is not comparable to that of your cousin." ”

Hehe~ I have ninety-five to help. Seeing that Jiuwu was still "fighting" with the river mussel, Shi Liu glanced at the relatively large river mussel he touched, lit up the dagger and said, "Let's see if there are any pearls in this one you fished first." ”
