Chapter 209: Into the Mountains to Hunt

"Thank you little fairy for not killing, don't worry, I promise I won't dare again." The woman hurriedly folded her hands.

When I saw that it was also interesting, I didn't embarrass it, and pulled out the triangular needle, and the woman seemed to have been drained of all her strength, and fell to the ground without saying a word.

At the same time, in the southwest corner of the courtyard of Sun Zhishu's house, a yellow shadow came out, it was a weasel, it squeaked at everyone a few times, disappeared in a flash, and disappeared into the woods next to the village road.

"Look, everyone, the yellow skin is gone." A sharp-eyed villager saw it and immediately shouted.

Seeing this scene, Sun Zhishu was immediately overjoyed, grabbed my hand, and said with a grateful face: "Thank you Xiaodao for driving away the weasel and saving my mother-in-law's life." ”

And his son ran in front of me, knelt down with a "bang", kowtowed his head and said: "Thank you brother for saving your life, this kindness, my grandson Dazhuang has nothing to repay, only to be a cow and a horse in the next life, to repay this great kindness." ”

I was startled, hurriedly helped him up, and said: "Da Zhuang, don't do this, as a Taoist, it is my duty to help the world and save people, hurry up." ”

Hearing me say this, Sun Dazhuang stood up, stretched out his finger to the unconscious woman, and said with a worried face: "Brother, my mother is fine." ”

I walked up to the woman, squatted down to check for a while, and said, "Don't worry, your mother is just weak and temporarily unconscious." ”

With that, I gently stabbed a triangular needle into her person, then twisted it a few more times.

After a while, as if she had woken up from a dream, the woman opened her eyes and looked at everyone blankly, looking very tired, and muttered, "When did you all come here, and what are you doing around me?" ”

Seeing that she finally woke up, the big guys were happy and said, "The sister-in-law of the Sun family is cured of her illness and is not crazy, thanks to the help of the little Taoist." ”

At this moment, the eyes of everyone looking at me were not very different, and they were all in deep awe.

In this way, the illness of Sun Zhishu's daughter-in-law was finally cured, and the villagers dispersed one by one when they saw that they were fine, and Sun Zhishu learned that we were looking for a place to spend the night, so he warmly invited the three of us to live in his house, so as to repay me for saving my life.

The three of us were worried that we couldn't find a place to stay, and we were not hypocritical at the moment, so we followed him into the house.

After entering the house and taking a seat, Sun Zhishu made a cup of hot tea for the three of us, and then asked me: "Xiaodao Chief, the heavy snow is about to close the mountain, what are you doing in the mountain at this juncture?" ”

I took a sip of tea, moistened my throat and said: "To be honest, Xiaodao entered the mountain this time to look for iron birch, and I heard that this generation of Daxinganling grows this kind of wood, so I made a special trip to take a look." ”

"So you're here to find Iron Birch." After listening to this, Sun Zhishu nodded and said: "We do have this kind of wood here, this iron birch grows in the depths of the mountain, hard as iron, the knife is constantly chopping, the legend can only grow an inch every ten years, very precious, I don't know how many years of wood is needed for the trail chief, another day my father and son will go into the mountain to cut down a tree for you." ”

My face was overjoyed, and I said: "That Xiaodao has thanked Sun Zhishu here first, I don't know if there is a lightning strike iron birch in the mountain that is more than 100 years old?" ”

Sun Zhishu was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head and said: "It seems that the little Taoist wants to use this kind of wood magic weapon, but it's a pity, there are a few trees in the hundred-year-old Iron Birch Mountain, but there are none that have been struck by thunder, you know, now that I see winter, it is still thundering, and there is no thunder splitting wood at all." ”

I frowned after hearing this, and I couldn't help but be a little disappointed, thinking that this trip was in vain.

At this time, Sun Dazhuang stepped forward and said: "Brother, don't worry, if there is no thunder in winter, you will definitely not be able to find lightning strike wood, it is better for you to stay in my house temporarily, and wait for the spring of next year, as soon as the spring thunder sounds, let's try our luck in the mountain again, and say that we can find lightning strike iron birch." ”

My eyes lit up after hearing this, as if I saw another glimmer of hope, and I nodded in agreement.

So, for the next period of time, Yu Banxian and Jin Ling, three people, I lived in Sun Zhishu's house.

Sun Zhishu's ancestor was born as a hunter, and the family relied on the mountains to eat the mountains, except for taking care of a wasteland and planting some vegetables on weekdays, most of the food was obtained by hunting in the mountains.

The Great Khing'an Mountains are full of wild things, rabbits, wild boars, pheasants, robes in the deep mountains, as well as fungus, wild fruits, mushrooms and so on in the forest, all of which are delicious mountain goods.

The people in the mountains remembered their gratitude, because I saved the life of Sun Zhishu's daughter-in-law, she was grateful, and naturally she would not be stingy with anything in eating and drinking, and entertained us with delicious food.

The small pheasant stewed with mushrooms, and then added to the fresh fungus picked in the mountains, with garlic, ginger and other seasonings, put it in a casserole to boil and stew, the tempting game, even if the gods go down to earth, they can't resist.

The bacon after the boar is dried, with yellow greasy, cut into thin slices, and then put into the pot with shredded sauerkraut, add fiery red dried chili peppers, fry over high heat, and a plate of spicy shredded sauerkraut fried bacon is out of the pot.

Garlic sauce fish, the fish is caught in a lake forty miles away, and it is cleaned up by Sun Zhishu's daughter-in-law, and the soybean fermentation is added to the traditional earthen jar, cut into a plate, and a layer of garlic foam is put in, which is also a rare delicacy.

These are all authentic farmhouse dishes, which can't be eaten with money in the city, and with Sun Zhishu's home-brewed soju, Yu Banxian and I swallowed our tongues.

Before I knew it, a month had passed, winter was coming, the north wind was biting, and the first heavy snow of winter fell, covering this palm-sized village with a layer of white silver, and then the weather suddenly became cold, and the heavy snow was about to close the mountain.

Since then, due to the big fish and meat all day long, my weight has also increased by more than ten pounds, and I look a little stronger.

Not to mention Yu Banxian's old goods, he was originally a fat man, but once his stomach was filled with oil and water, his weight soared, and he swayed in the yard with his stomach all day long.

The two of us are fat and strong, but they have suffered from Sun Zhishu's family.

Before the winter, Sun Zhishu and his son Da Zhuang went into the mountains to hunt some prey, dried it into bacon and stored it, which was enough for their family of three to last until the beginning of spring next year.

But as soon as Yu Banxian and I came, two more mouths came out of thin air, and the original food was no longer enough to eat.

Seeing that he was about to run out of food and that he would not be able to survive the cruel and long winter, Sun Zhishu finally couldn't sit still, slapped his thigh, and decided to brave the snow to go into the mountains to hunt.

Just do what they say, the two old and one young, picked them up, took the hounds, and prepared to go into the mountains.

I and Yu Banxian have been idle recently, nesting in the house all day long, the cat is about to fade out of the bird in winter, when I saw his grandfather and two go into the mountains to hunt, suddenly came to the interest, put on a thick cotton jacket, buckled a dogskin hat, brought a golden bell, and also followed the farts to join in the fun.
