Chapter 37 of Book 3

It is said that He Yu came to the back mountain with confidence, looked at the green mountains, and strode forward. It's not easy to just shoot two hares. When he walked to a place, the corner of his eye swept a gray rabbit behind him, and the stones between his fingers were like electric switches, breaking through the wind.

The gray rabbit was frightened and immediately ran forward and jumped. He Yu flew around him, and the stones left his hand like arrows and shuttled. But for some reason, every time I look like I'm about to hit, the other party is chaotic but always dodges. This made him wonder, the rabbit in front of him seemed to be more astute than he had caught before.

But animals are animals after all, and no matter how smart they are, their first reaction in times of danger is to flee to the cave. As long as you find its burrow, everything will not be easy?He Yu looked at the gray rabbit running desperately on the ground, and slowed down unhurriedly.

Seeing the gray rabbit disappear into the thorn grass in front of him, he used his sword to remove the cover, and sure enough, he found a small cave. The hare's burrows are never too deep, but in order to save their lives, there are usually two nests connected to each other for escape. However, the hare has a more interesting habit - it likes to go the old way. It doesn't matter if you're out or foraging.

As long as he drove the hare out of the burrow and blocked it again, there would be no hiding place for the hare. It's strange if you don't catch it yet. Come to think of it, these are all the gains accumulated by him and his brothers of the same age every time he went up the mountain to chop firewood when he was a child. Looking back at the current situation and appearance, he couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness in his heart.

A hidden trap was set up in front of the entrance of the cave, and He Yu swung his sword and slashed, with just the right strength, a fierce wind approached the cave. After a few small exclamations, the gray shadow of the grass below flashed. He jumped a few times, and the stones that were already ready to be launched in his hand left his hand at the same time.

Hearing only the faint neighing of a hare, He Yu brushed aside the grass in front of him, leaving a few drops of blood red on the ground.

"Well, it can't be! how could it have escaped this blow?" he said unexpectedly, standing up and looking around, there were a few drops of bright red hidden in front of him.

He traced it. The rabbit is wounded, and it will not go far. Following the staccato trail of blood, he was once again in front of a bush of thorny greenery. Picking open the thorn in front of him, revealing another small hole, He Yu shook his head and felt funny. Heh! It's really a cunning rabbit with three holes! Raise your sword and swing it, and the sword qi is approaching the entrance of the cave. Heyu walked towards the first cave of the gray rabbit. But it was a smile on his face. He had just stoned the entrance to the second cave, and the hare now had no way to hide, and would return to its original burrow.

Reaching out to pick up the injured hare that was covered by a small vine branch in front of the entrance of the cave, he Yu couldn't help but laugh and said: "Cunning rabbit, cunning rabbit, you are smart enough to know how to dig three holes, so as to protect yourself, who knows that this trap set for you can escape as long as you take a step back..."

As soon as he entered the hospital gate, the old man meowed to see the hare in Heyu's hand, and dropped the remaining half of the chicken on the table, his eyes were salivating, he stepped forward, and praised him: "Yo, the bastard boy is good, he really came back." His eyes swept up and down at the hare, and he smiled and said, "It's good now, the old man has rabbit meat to eat at night." Haha..."

On the other hand, He Yu looked surprised. The half of the chicken left over on that table was clearly the old hen that the old man blamed him for killing by mistake in the morning, and he was thundering... Didn't you say you couldn't make a lotus leaf chicken? What is it now?

See you old man

He Yu didn't react, just stared straight at the table. Thinking that the other party was hungry, he smiled, turned around and picked up the half of the old hen on the table with a silver bowl, raised his head and made a bold gesture, and said generously: "Bastard boy, you're hungry! You're welcome. As he spoke, he threw the silver bowl into He Yu's arms with both hands, snatched the hare in his hand, and looked at it happily.

"You, didn't you say that I killed your beloved chicken by mistake and made it lose its taste and taste bad. and let me catch rabbits to compensate, but what is this?" He Yu came back to his senses, angry in his heart, and said depressedly.

"Oh, this oneβ€”" The old man still looked at the hare in front of him, and forgot everything as if he had a delicacy. Ignoring He Yu's anger at all, he said in a good mood: "Oh! I didn't say that if I can't make lotus leaf chicken, I can't do anything else." He stroked his white beard, showed an extremely serious and thoughtful expression, smacked his lips, and said, "Well, is it braised and eaten? or steamed? If you don't stew it again, it's not bad...", and walked away. Leaving behind a dumbfounded He Yu almost collapsed.

Dusk, sunset. A light breeze blew, and the green bamboos in the courtyard suddenly sounded crisply. He Yu looked at the stone table full of food, hungry, but unable to start. Because the expression of the old man staring at him on the other side was indeed quite obscene.

"Come, bastard, try the rabbit meat you made today, and see how the old man cooks?" the old man smiled earnestly, and put two pieces of braised rabbit meat into Heyu's bowl.

Nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief! This old man must be playing some kind of trick. He Yu's face did not change, he politely took the bowl with both hands, and said with a smile: "Brother Jiechen, you are too polite." You don't have to worry about me, you can eat it quickly, otherwise the dishes will be cold. "If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move, see what this old man is going to do.

"Yes, yes. We all eat and we all eat. The old man picked up the bowl.

Why did this old man keep staring at the rabbit meat in his bowl? Could it be that there is something wrong with this rabbit meat? He didn't believe that although the behavior in front of him was strange, he was once famous and famous, and he was good friends with his uncle, and such a person would harm him. But, however, his current expression and reaction really couldn't help but make him think about it. Could it be that he is still haunted by the events of the morning, and has crotons and something like that?" Ahem, Brother Juechen, don't look at me, come, you can also eat a piece of rabbit meat!" He Yu had a plan, and also sandwiched a piece of rabbit meat for the other party.

"Oh, oh, okay. You can eat it too. When the old man heard this, he withdrew his gaze. took it, took a random bite, and urged enthusiastically.

When He Yu saw the other party swallowing rabbit meat, he secretly accused himself of being suspicious, and he also took a big bite of it. As soon as he chewed a piece of rabbit meat into his mouth, the old man's eyes lit up, and he said, "How is it? Is it delicious?" He Yu almost choked with a mouthful. The old man was busy pouring tea and patting him on the back to relieve his breath. This made him even more suspicious.

"Bastard, are you alright?"

"It's okay, it's okay!" "Brother Jiechen, do you have something to do? If so, you might as well say it directly, I will not hesitate to help if I can... It's just that you're like this, weird, make me, make me really a little hairy..."Waving his hand, He Yu asked while panting, and finally couldn't stand it.

"Hehe!" the old man returned to his seat, gladly glanced at He Yu in the seat opposite, and smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, it's nothing." It's just that this rabbit meat is really delicious, and you know that I'm old, and this old arm and leg are not very flexible, and it's really difficult to catch this hare, so... So..."

It turns out that this old man has spent half a day working hard for this. He Yu was immediately amused and angry, but he was also relieved. Thinking that after all, it was the other party who contained him, and it was not difficult to beat a few rabbits for him every day, so he readily agreed.

When the old man saw that he was full of promise, he immediately smiled from ear to ear, and talked to him more earnestly. The north and the south, the gossip of the five elements, anecdotes and some major events that he experienced and participated in in his early years...

The old man gushed endlessly, and his mouth was like a river. The interest was extreme, and the eyebrows were dancing and the spirit was flying. He Yu also heard the movement, and gradually ignited a sense of reverence and solemnity. But as the table was full of food and the night dropped to the deep cold, the other party's interest was still undiminished, so he didn't think about it anymore... It's just that it's heavy dew late at night, when can I take a break!
