Chapter 6: Savage Ditch
Three days went by in a flash!
After eating and playing, Shao Shan and Hu Bayi combined, it was time to enter the mountain, so they packed up some necessary items, such as black donkey hooves, glutinous rice, bird cages, etc., for use when going to the tomb.
Approaching the long journey, the three of Shaoshan finally met the guide of the trip, "Yingzi", a nineteen-year-old girl.
Don't look at Yingzi is only nineteen years old, but she is a rare Oroqen tribesman, she is a natural hunter, among the younger generation of hunters in the tunzi, there is no better than her, the little girl has followed his father to hunt in the forest since she was a child, and knows a lot about the things in the forest.
Looking at Yingzi who came on horseback, Shao Shan smiled slightly, this little girl looks quite standard, but she doesn't like to laugh, wearing a common hunter's costume, cutting her short hair, revealing a wildness in her eyes, a shotgun diagonally on her back, followed by two mastiffs and a few hunting dogs, full of heroic and clean energy.
Shao Shan and Hu Bayi glanced at each other and nodded slightly, this little girl is reliable.
However, at this time, there was obviously a trace of reluctance on the little girl's face, but she was assigned by the old branch secretary and had to listen.
"Brother Hu, Brother Shao, Fat Brother, I'm Yingzi, and I'm your guide this time!" Yingzi didn't talk much, introduced herself, and stopped talking.
It's a fat man, when he saw that the old branch secretary had found such a little girl as a guide, and his mouth was gone, he couldn't help but wonder if the old branch secretary was old and confused, maybe he had to protect this little girl on the road!
"What's wrong with the girl, you don't want a man!" Yingzi choked the fat man with a straight word, and then simply turned the horse's head neatly and led the way for a few people in front.
"Hey, this little girl ......"
"Okay, fatty, I don't think this little girl is simple, let's hurry up and keep up!" Shao Shan said and slapped the horse under him with the big knife in his hand and followed.
Shao Shan's big knife is troublesome Yanzi and his father helped to buy it, in this big mountain, many villagers still have such a thing at home, so it is not troublesome to change a big knife, Shao Shan knows that this time into the mountain is not calm, specially selected this knife, and brought it with him for self-defense.
"Let's go!" Hu Bayi and the fat man also followed side by side.
Fluttering ......
Four tall horses marched in this mountain forest path, startling the birds all over the mountain.
has been walking in the forest for three days, and after a few days, Yingzi has also become familiar with a few people, no longer indifferent when they first met, and from time to time commanding Lao Hu and the fat man to do this and that, but Shao Shan and Yingzi can talk about it, after all, the two are about the same age.
"Hey, Brother Shao, it's enough to break the cow, you hooked up so quickly!" The fat man came to Shao Shan's side with a kettle, and joked with his eyebrows.
"Get out!" In addition to Shao Shan's white eyes, there was also a heartfelt greeting.
Walking in this mountain, feeling the fresh air and lush forests, it makes people feel comfortable, as if the cells of the whole body are alive, and greedily breathe this primitive breath.
Shao Shan is not unseen in the mountains and forests, he was angry with his family when he was a child, he once ran to the forest alone for three days and three nights, when he was only seven years old, but his life in the mountains and forests was quite moist, when the family found him, he was sleeping on a thick branch, and there was a leftover roast rabbit hanging on the tree, which made the family cry and laugh, and laughed and scolded this little guy is happy.
But he has never seen such a verdant mountain forest, the whole mountain forest is like a beast crawling on the ground, full of wild atmosphere, daunting, and Yingzi seems to be familiar with the road when he arrives here, which has to be admired.
"Whew!"
Suddenly, Shao Shan, who was marching, slapped the horse's back, and the whole person jumped up, and the long knife in his hand turned upside down and swung out, and the direction was the fat man's head.
"Ahh A sharp exclamation startled the birds all over the mountain, and Hu Bayi and Yingzi next to them also hurriedly looked over.
"Smack!"
A tree branch hung upside down, and the poisonous snake that had reached the neck of the fat man was cut off and fell to the ground.
"Ya, I'm scared to death, Brother Shao, you saved the fat man again, but next time can we talk about it in advance!" It took a long time for the fat man to recover from the double fright of the big knife and the poisonous snake, and patted his chest, looking like he had palpitations.
"Fatty, it's okay, let you be careful, you just won't listen!" Hu Bayi said angrily.
"Hehe, isn't there such a big master as Brother Shao, I won't next time!" The fat man scratched his head wryly.
"Brother Shao, how many times have you saved you!" Hu Bayi also knew that the fat man was so virtuous, so he didn't say more, turned his head and looked at Shao Shan with a face full of amazement: "However, I have to say that Brother Shao is really powerful, this knife technique is fast and accurate, and the murderous aura is awe-inspiring, this is the chivalrous man who walks the world in ancient times!" ”
"Hmmm! Well! Yingzi next to her nodded cutely in agreement.
Along the way, Shao Shan's big knife has been unsheathed several times, the knife is amazing, completely convinced Hu Bayi and the fat man, and inadvertently recruited Yingzi such a little fan sister, Yingzi has lived in this mountain since he was a child, and he worships the strong the most, in Yingzi's words, Brother Shao is enough to run rampant in this mountain forest with this hand knife technique, and even the top hunters can't compare.
"Hehe, my sword learning is my old man, and his knife skills are all practiced by killing devils on the battlefield back then, although it is just a few simple moves, but it is the most practical and direct!"
Shao Shan's knife technique was actually learned from his grandfather in reality, but when he got here, he could only say that he learned it from his Lao Tzu, otherwise there would be a loophole in time.
"I see, the knife technique sharpened on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, no wonder there is such momentum!" Hu Bayi nodded in admiration, he is a person who has been on the battlefield as a soldier, and what he admires the most is the older generation of soldiers, who are all the elites of a hundred battles who have been fighting in the sea of corpses and blood.
"Brother Shao, can you teach me?" Yingzi said suddenly, her eyes flashing with hope.
"No problem, but this set of knife techniques has high requirements for the user's physical fitness, reaction speed, arm strength, wrist flexibility, etc., and I can have such power because of the foundation laid by practicing boxing since I was a child!" Shao Shan didn't hide his secrets, and told the truth, if Yingzi learned it, she could undoubtedly increase her ability to overcome danger in the mountains and forests, and this is what Shao Shan is willing to see.
"Hey, sister Yingzi, then you can practice boxing with your brother Shao first!" The fat man said with a big grin on the side.
"Fatty, don't talk nonsense, how can Brother Shao's family hand-me-down boxing skills be taught to others at will!" After all, Hu Bayi is much calmer, and he also knows the traditions of many martial arts practitioners, and they regard the inheritance very seriously, and they will not pass on the boxing skills at all.
"Lao Hu, it's serious, what age is this, as long as Yingzi is willing to learn, I will teach her, of course, Lao Hu and the fat man can also learn together, and they should be healthy." Shao Shan waved his hand absently.
"Great, thank you, Brother Shao!" Yingzi was instantly happy, just now she also thought of those traditions that were circulating, originally the little girl was empathetic, and wanted to say that she wouldn't learn, but she didn't expect Shao Shan to agree.
"Hehe, it's not a great boxing technique, but if you want to learn it, you have to be prepared to endure hardships!"
"Don't worry, Brother Shao, I'm not afraid of hardship!" For Yingzi, who grew up in the mountains and forests, hardship is just commonplace.
"Okay, let's go, I'll show you a hand tonight, snake soup is a delicious dish!" Shao Shan is also a foodie, and he has a place to use it in this mountain forest.
It was getting dark, and everyone stopped hurrying, but found an open area and lit a bonfire, which could prevent wild beasts from attacking, and to cook on the fire, and the meal was very rich tonight.
A delicious snake soup, full of aroma, the greedy fat man has long been waiting beside him with a bowl, adding a roast rabbit and four grilled fish, the fat man who only eats is full of oil, and almost bites his tongue off.
In this mountain forest, you can see rivers passing through it from time to time, so drinking water and eating fish is not a problem.
"Fatty, look at your little bit of talent, you are a starving ghost reincarnated!" Hu Bayi scolded with a smile.
"You can say whatever you like, the most important thing is that the fat man is full!" The fat man patted his belly with a satisfied look on his face.
"This snake soup is so fragrant, I didn't expect Brother Shao to be able to cook!" Yingzi looked at Shao Shan's eyes with little stars, although her skills are not bad, but in this big mountain, they are all hastily dealt with and passed, which is as rich as today.
"Hey, Yingzi, then you can marry your Brother Shao, and in the future, you will be able to taste your Brother Shao's craftsmanship every day!" The fat man has no serious words in his mouth, and when he is full of food and drink, there is no door in his mouth.
"The dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, so I won't tell you, I'll go collect some firewood!" Yingzi blushed, glanced at Shao Shan secretly, and hurriedly picked up a mastiff and walked towards the darkness.
"Hey, Brother Shao has a door!" The fat man winked at Shao Shan, then jumped up and shouted to Yingzi who was gradually moving away: "Sister Yingzi, brother will accompany you!" ”。
"No, you don't have a dog!" Yingzi's voice came from afar.
"Hey, this is really angry one-headed garlic, don't let the little pepper, I am so kind, she actually scolded me!"
"You deserve it, you don't have a door on your mouth, stay side!" Hu Bayi was about to kick, and the fat man hurriedly flashed to the side.
Shao Shan smiled on the side, lowered his head and continued to eat the grilled fish in his hand!
