Feeling this change, Sheng Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, she couldn't help but smile, and wanted to turn around and praise Sheng Zhizhi.

However, she saw a strange scene.

Sheng Zhizhi, who has a detached personality, never seems to be without sorrow. She was very relaxed and lively from the beginning, and when Sheng Qingqing was worried just now, she didn't feel the slightest worry. However, at this time, when Sheng Qingqing was relaxing, this little girl had a serious face, her ears seemed to be listening to something, and even her steps were much slower.

Sheng Qingqing endured it for a while, then lowered her voice and asked, "Zhizhi, what are you doing?" ”

"Sister, let's be careful next." Sheng Zhizhi said seriously.

Sheng Qingqing was taken aback by her rare serious appearance, and subconsciously lowered her already low voice.

"How...... What's wrong? Is there something wrong? ”

Sheng Zhizhi glanced at her in surprise, but still explained: "Sister, you forgot, there is a deep mountain in front of you, and there are fierce beasts in it." ”

As mentioned earlier, Sheng Tiantian will go up the mountain every year to patrol to ensure the safety of the village in winter. But he was only one person, and even if he was on patrol, he couldn't see the whole mountain once. So usually he only searches on the outskirts of the mountain. This not only reduces the workload, but also ensures the safety of the village.

Beasts are different from humans, they are very territorial, and they will not leave their territory unless there is an accident.

Therefore, the outer part of the mountain is absolutely safe, which is why Sheng Zhizhi was so relaxed just now.

But it's different when you go deeper......

"But it doesn't matter, the fourth uncle said, the bears in the mountains are all asleep, let's be careful and it'll be fine."

It may be that Sheng Qingqing's nervousness is too obvious, and Sheng Zhizhi also comforted her intimately.

Sheng Qingqing reluctantly tugged at the corners of her mouth.

As a modern person, I may not have even seen a big bug, but now that I have the opportunity to face a blind bear, how can I not be afraid. According to those news reports, an adult bear is two or three meters tall when it stands up, and a slap can slap a person to death.

"Zhizhi, what are you looking for?" Sheng Qingqing endured it, but couldn't help but ask.

Sheng Zhizhi and Sheng Siming both said that there were good things in the mountains, but they couldn't say what they were. Sheng Qingqing couldn't help but start thinking about it now, if the value of that thing was not so high, it would be better to go home. Money can be earned slowly, but there is only one life.

Sheng Zhizhi: "...... Sister, don't be so afraid, I've been to the mountains before, as long as you're careful, it's not so dangerous. ”

As she spoke, she went in one direction.

Sheng Qingqing resisted the urge to pull her back, and hesitated for a long time before slowly following up.

"Let's not go where the blind bears are, for they will have to sleep." Sheng Zhizhi comforted Sheng Zhizhi in a low voice as she walked, explaining: "Let's go to the water's edge, the winter is cold, most of the plants are dry, only some will grow at the water's edge, and those animals will pass." ”

Sheng Zhizhi is still young, although he is quite experienced in hunting, but he is not clear. Sheng Qingqing listened to it for a long time before concluding it.

Water is the source of all things, and in this cold season, if you want to find some fresh plants, you can only see them at the water's edge. Those herbivores are probably also found near the water.

But......

"Won't there be any tigers and leopards or something?"

Sheng Zhizhi waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, except for the bear and the blind man in this mountain, there are actually no fierce beasts in this mountain." Most of those tigers and leopards have been beaten away by the villagers and sold into the city. ”

Sheng Qingqing opened her mouth and didn't speak. The people in the village are so powerful that they can kill fierce beasts like tigers and leopards with their flesh and blood? However, thinking that Sheng Tiantian could patrol the entire mountain forest with the power of one person, he didn't feel so strange.

Sheng Zhizhi looked even more accustomed to it, and walked slowly in one direction.

Sheng Qingqing followed her, and after walking for long, she saw a gurgling stream.

By this time the sky was already bright, and the bright sunlight shone through the trees, reflecting the sparkling water between the streams. From a distance, it looks as if there is dazzling gold buried in it.

However, at this time, in Sheng Qingqing's opinion, this stream did hide gold.

Unlike those below the hill that seem barren and dry, this stream is a lively scene. There are no terrible beasts imaginable, only verdant meadows and dazzling scenery, and if you look closely, you can even find a few small animals.

The closest to them at this time was a snow-white rabbit.

The rabbit was half an arm's length, with snow-white fur and two long-eared antennas erected, and was vigilantly watching for the dangers around it, while occasionally bowing its head to eat a bite of the tender green grass.

In the eyes of ordinary girls, what a lovely sight this is, the soft white hair of the rabbit, how endearing. However, Sheng Qingqing's saliva was about to come down.

Rabbit!

Yesterday's meal alone couldn't make up for her hunger. At this moment, Sheng Qingqing couldn't help but think of dishes such as white chopped rabbit, dried fried rabbit, spicy rabbit head and so on. Just thinking about it, that saliva is going to come down......

"Zhizhi, can you catch the rabbit?" Sheng Qingqing looked at her eight-year-old sister eagerly. She is very self-aware, and if she were alone, she might not find a single rabbit fur in the end.

"This ......" Sheng Zhizhi was a little hesitant, she had never caught a rabbit alone, and she had no confidence at this time.

Sheng Qingqing couldn't bear to be harsh, she couldn't do it herself, what qualifications did she have to ask her eight-year-old little sister to do it.

"It's okay, if you can't catch it, don't want it, let's go back and eat pork!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as she said this, Sheng Zhizhi relaxed.

Originally, she was ashamed because she was incompetent, but when Sheng Qingqing said this, she had no burden in her heart.

"I'll try it first, I've fought it before!"

Although she followed the villagers, she first injured the rabbit, and then she picked up the leak there. But after picking up so many leaks, Sheng Zhizhi can be regarded as understanding some rabbit habits. Maybe you can catch it this time, maybe you can!

For her sister's efforts, Sheng Qingqing naturally has an attitude of affirmative support.

The two sisters did not come closer, and they just stood in place, about ten meters away from the rabbit.

Sheng Zhizhi took it out of his arms and carefully found a slingshot. This slingshot looks extraordinary, completely different from the kind that children play with. Ordinary slingshots are usually the size of a child's palm, but the one in Sheng Zhizhi's hand is more than twice as large, and I don't know how she hid it in her clothes.
