Chapter 408: Into the Mountains
It has been several days since everyone picked wild vegetables that day.
Zhang Guoqing couldn't think of anyone to accompany him.
It's too hard to choose someone you can trust. It is not safe to have a raw hand, and besides, you have to protect yourself. Old hunter, he doesn't have much to trust. His father was an old hunter, but he didn't want his family to know too much.
He seriously doubted that Old Man Wang would not just do it for ginseng, and maybe there would be some treasures. If people don't say it, he won't pierce it. The old man's character, he can trust.
Thinking like this, Zhang Guoqing finally decided to follow their ancestors and grandchildren into the mountain alone. As soon as something is wrong, get out and quit.
Once the decision is made, things will be arranged. The day before the weekend, Zhang Guoqing took a leave of absence. He half-truthfully told Zhou Jiao that the three of Mr. Wang's ancestors and grandchildren went up the mountain for two nights, and he wanted to go over to have a look.
Zhou Jiao considered that there was no problem with Old Man Wang here, and repeatedly asked him to ensure his safety, nodded and agreed. A big man, it is impossible for him to revolve around his wife and son, and there is no room for freedom.
Before leaving, Zhou Jiao was a little uneasy, so she deliberately handed over her small wooden warehouse to him, took out the configuration powder and handed it to him. When he was sent out, he was handed dry food, and he was given one more word of instruction to pay attention to safety.
Zhang Guoqing walked out of the door with a complicated mood, and looked back at Zhou Jiao holding his son at the gate. Alas... Why don't you feel good in your heart? He had never lied to Zhou Jiao, and suddenly he didn't want to leave.
Thinking of Old Man Wang, he finally left quickly. If the old man hadn't brought his son and grandson, he would have come back at once. At this moment, he regretted that he had agreed to others hastily.
walked all the way, and soon met the old man Wang in the agreed wooden house, Zhang Guoqing saw that he really brought his eldest son and grandson with a little more relieved. I secretly hope that I can bring something to please my daughter-in-law, and I won't be punished too severely by her.
The four of them were accustomed to walking mountain roads, and soon came to the outskirts of the mountains. Strangely, Old Man Wang stopped at this moment, staring at Zhang Guoqing silently.
Zhang Guoqing knew that the point was coming. At this point, it's time to talk about the danger or purpose. Looking at this situation, it is estimated that the picture is huge.
Old man Wang asked Zhang Guoqing if he knew the blood of wild goats?
Zhang Guoqing finally knew why he was drugged. Of course, what the old man said was not an ordinary wild goat, if he understood correctly, it should be the blood of the ancient tribute wild goat that his grandfather once mentioned.
It is said that the blood of a dried goat covered with a fingernail can make a person who is dying of heavy bleeding stop the bleeding immediately and come back to life. In addition to stopping bleeding, but also removing carbuncles, in short, God and God. But his grandfather had never seen a real thing, let alone himself.
Old Man Wang smiled mysteriously, and said that he had met him when he was young, and he looked similar to a goat, but it was definitely not a goat, and it was very fast, and it was a leap. He heard his master talk about it, and then he went home and thought about it, it should be the legendary wild goat.
Zhang Guoqing glanced at him suspiciously, he won't be confused, right? was slapped by the old man, and he waited for the old man to arrange.
This matter is kept secret, whether it is found or not, it must be kept secret!
Zhang Guoqing nodded. He estimated that the other party could also trust his character, just as he trusted them. There was such a thing, and he was willing to take a risk. There is no good technology that can save a woman's life when she gives birth to a child. Fight! If it's wrong, he'll run.
Master Wang reminded that the thing was fast, and it could only be used to sprinkle drugs in the mouth. Four people occupy four positions, as long as they hit and untie it to see if the blood is purple.
Zhang Guoqing nodded after listening. He glanced at the eldest son of the old man Wang, and saw that he had a sad face, and it was estimated that it was the relatives and friends of the old man's family who were seriously ill and waiting for help.
The four of them began to tidy up their tools and followed the old man close to the mountains. The further he goes, the more Zhang Guoqing knows where the other party is going. That place is extremely dangerous, and there may be Siberian tigers. What is Primary Forest? Even his grandfather didn't dare take him in.
He listened intently, not daring to relax for a moment. You must know that the most terrifying thing about these deep mountains and old forests is that the big beast hides in the shadows and suddenly attacks you. That's really the person who shoots can die on the spot.
Closely following the three of them, Zhang Guoqing didn't pay attention to the prey he encountered. In the spring, you can spare their lives without hitting the wild creatures with cubs.
Fortunately, it was not winter, and I walked all the way over the mountains and mountains for two hours before I came to the forest that Mr. Wang said. There are rows of towering trees, and you will definitely be dizzy if you enter it rashly. If you want to go in, you don't have any skills, don't think about it.
Zhang Guoqing didn't say anything, staring at the three of Old Man Wang's ancestors and grandchildren. Without saying a reasonable plan, he has to go. Even if there was fairy grass and immortal medicine in it, he would just pull out his legs and leave.
Old man Wang seemed to have premeditated, so he asked his eldest grandson to take out a red bucket of paint from the bamboo basket and brush it all the way with a brush. His eldest son opened the way, and he took Zhang Guoqing to walk slowly behind.
Zhang Guoqing touched his nose, he wanted to say the smell of paint, it is estimated that even the animals were scared away, let alone the appearance of wild goats. After thinking about it for a moment, he didn't speak. Just memorize the code and pay attention to your surroundings.
No one has passed by for a long time, and the feet are stepping on the fallen leaves, as if stepping on a long-haired carpet, which is soft and soft, and people can't settle down at all.
In this way, along the farthest point, all the way to a col. I really saw a piece of ginseng ground, and there were mallet birds flying overhead.
The eldest grandson of the old man Wang happily asked the old man, is this the place to visit? I muttered it, sent it, and made it really big.
was beaten hard by his father a few times, and finally quieted down.
Zhang Guoqing didn't care about the father and son, and waited for the old man to arrange. All he wanted to know now was where the so-called goat had been?
People are old and fine, and Old Man Wang didn't say anything, just let him dig ginseng first, and then find a place to stay tonight. It's okay to joke in a good mood, don't regret whoever digs late, he left as soon as he hit the goat.
Zhang Guoqing glanced at him. Do you really think that the three of them, he will lose? Since the old man still has the heart to joke, it should not be far from here.
The ginseng ground is in a shady place, surrounded by wild vegetables and weeds, and it is dense and accidentally misses the past. Old man Wang's eldest grandson is still a little sensible, no matter how excited he is, he still knows to see if there are any dangerous creatures such as snakes.
Three snakes were killed, and the four men began to take out bamboo knives and get to work. No one spoke, and Zhang Guoqing could hear the gnawing of a group of wild boars not far away, the sound of snakes crawling in the grass, the sound of squirrels moving from trees, and the buzzing of bees not far away.
Zhang Guoqing dug up a small pile of "radish", and seeing that they were still working hard with a serious face, he began to be a little impatient. These things are rare when they are few, and nothing strange when they are more. Especially when he saw that the eldest grandson of the Wang family didn't even let go of more than ten years of ginseng, he really wanted to beat this mallet to death.
Bandaged and tied with leaves and put into a bamboo basket, Zhang Guoqing stood in place and stared at the direction of the bee buzzing, his family needed wild honey more than ginseng.
Old Man Wang looked up at him, and was so angry that he scolded him fiercely for being a loser, telling him to hurry up. After a while, the ginseng pickers will definitely come, and there will not be a single hair left. It's better to be cheap than to be cheaper than to be cheap.
The old man began to talk about how he was surprised when Grandpa Zhang was young and picked up small ginseng, and blamed Zhang Guoqing for not learning his grandfather's diligence and thrift.
Come on, the old man's man's mantra is more terrible than anything else. Zhang Guoqing hurriedly squatted down and continued to work. This time he approached them unceremoniously and quickly—to tell you to be fast, or to be fast.
After two days and two nights of guarding the mountain, the legendary wild goat did not encounter a single hair, but beat two real wild goats. When you peel it off, the blood is not purple, it is normal. The most terrifying thing is that everyone was almost killed in the tiger's mouth, and the two-meter tiger was drugged and could fight hard, almost killing the eldest grandson of the Wang family. If it weren't for the dagger that Zhou Xiaozheng gave to his son-in-law, the old man would really want the white-haired man to send the black-haired man.
Faced with the old man saying that the tiger belonged to him, Zhang Guoqing was not polite. Tigers, how rare! This will be passed on to future generations, just like the old man.
There are also tiger bones that have finally been raised, and nearly half of the tiger bones have been taken away by the old man, Zhang Guoqing is not distressed at all. Without the old man and the father and son, he can't master this peeling technique well. And has his daughter-in-law returned to the village? If he went back so aggressively, he would definitely be confiscated.
The four of them carried the fallen wild things on their backs, and went out of the woods, and returned to the hut.
Leaving the three of them to kill the remaining prey in the pond, Zhang Guoqing looked at his torn clothes with sorrow. I wonder if Zhou Jiao will cry again?
provoked the old man Wang to laugh. I'm afraid that my daughter-in-law is afraid of this, you Zhang Xiaowu is the first person!
Zhang Guoqing ignored this old man, how could his old man understand that he was a beloved daughter-in-law. Without hesitation, he took off his coat and ran home as fast as he could.
Zhou Jiao was at home as promised, which made Zhang Guoqing breathe a sigh of relief. He didn't have time to say more, handed over the peace to Zhang's mother, picked up his daughter-in-law and rushed to the mountain.
In the wooden house, Zhou Jiao still didn't wake up until the three of Old Man Wang's grandson left. Zhou Jiao, who has always been calm and free, was frightened, and kept staying in place, staring at the tiger's hair in a daze.
Zhang Guoqing began to tell half-truths about how to fight tigers and how to save Wang Da fool. In short, he originally wanted to come over with them to have fun, but he didn't expect to encounter an emergency.
Zhou Jiao gave him a fierce look, pinched the soft flesh on his waist fiercely, made him lie, and let him come over to play. What about liars! If you don't go to the mountains, the tiger will come out?
Zhang Guoqing reluctantly reminded her to collect her things first, otherwise it would be bad if someone came. Sure enough, his daughter-in-law was busy with business first. He secretly guessed that he didn't know what the punishment would be tonight.
Zhang Guoqing peeked at her absentmindedly and saw that she had been keeping a straight face. Finally remembered that he had dug a beehive, picked her up, ran outside, and smirked at her.
Zhou Jiao is not uncommon at all. Ginseng can be as much as radish, and honey is honey. If you don't give him some color this time, who knows where he will sneak next time.
