XIII. Her Hand
Seven stars walked in the mountains and forests, their steps were light, and they were silent when they stepped on the dead branches and fallen leaves.
I don't know how long she walked, but when the usual noise of the mountains and forests in her ears was mixed with the sound of Suosuo, she stopped.
She squinted her eyes, looked in one direction through the bushes, and with a wave of her hand, the dry cake that the pheasant had given her flew into the bushes like a meteor, and a terrible and angry scream rang out.
The rocks and fallen branches and leaves under his feet shook, and the dense bushes like arrows were violently pushed down, and a swarthy wild boar rushed out.
This is not an adult wild boar, but it is not small, with dead leaves and sludge on its face, as well as blood.
One of its eyes appears to be broken.
The pain drove the boar mad, and the breath of a stranger made it angry.
The boar screamed and rushed towards it, and the wind it brought up could blow people down.
Even if you can't blow it down, you can knock it over, and then your hooves will trample on it, turning into mud along with the mud and dead leaves on the ground.
But at the moment of rushing over, the person in front of him was gone.
The bamboo stick made a clanging sound on the rock, and the person jumped up in the air, fluttering gently, and the next moment the person holding the bamboo stick fell like a sharp sword.
The wild boar let out a shrill howl, and the ground rolled all over the ground, and the dead branches and leaves were splashed with mud, and the trees were shaking in the depths of the rocks, and the birds, pheasants, and rabbits were scurrying.
But the madness was only for a moment, and after a moment it was quiet.
The wild boar lay on the ground, twitching slightly, a scratch on the junction of its neck and its thick body, and blood gushed out.
Seven Stars raised his feet to avoid staining the corners of his shoes and skirts.
It's just that.....
She lowered her head and lifted her sleeves, exposing her wrists, a few bits of blood oozing from her white skin.
There was not much blood, and it no longer appeared after being stroked by the hand, leaving only a shallow scratch.
Qixing frowned slightly, the flesh and blood body was very fragile.
……
……
The little woman's fragile flesh and blood body could not carry a wild boar down the mountain, so Miss Seven Stars went down the mountain and told the pheasant to ask the villagers to help.
For the first time in the mountains, it became so lively, and there were exclamations one after another.
"What a wild boar!"
"My grandfather said that this mountain is called a wild boar stream, no wonder, there are really wild boars."
"It's scary, but it's good we don't come this way."
Speaking of which, everyone looked at the two girls together.
"How did this boar die?"
Earlier, the two girls came to pick up a wild boar, and everyone thought it was a joke, but now they saw a wild boar dead on the ground.....
What's going on with this boar?
Since the pheasant saw the wild boar, his mind was also a little dazed, and when he heard the question, he muttered the words of the young lady: "Just, wait for the rabbit." ”
Waiting for the rabbit? The villagers felt that they understood, but they didn't understand it very well.
"I set some traps and caught some rabbits and pheasants." Qixing explained to everyone, "I thought about setting up some deep in the mountains to catch more, but I didn't expect to see a wild boar go crazy as soon as I came in, and I crashed into the trees and killed myself." ”
The villagers sighed, thinking that this sound so unbelievable, but if it is not credible, it must be believed, could it be that this wild boar was not killed by itself, but was killed by these two girls?
That's even less credible!
"Miss Seven Stars, this is Mr. Yue's spirit, sent to you." A villager couldn't help but say.
......
......
The four villagers lifted the boar up and shouted down the mountain road, with Seven Stars and the Pheasant following behind.
"This explanation can reassure everyone." Seven Stars whispered to the pheasant, "If I set a trap to catch it, it doesn't sound credible." ”
The pheasant looked at her, and the young lady's swarthy eyes seemed to shine with a little pride.
"Whoa." Seven Stars handed her the dry cake again, "This bait works very well." ”
The pheasant looked at the dry cake stained with blood and mud, and recognized that he had handed it to the young lady, so that she could satisfy her hunger, and use it as bait, but .....
She is to let this cake tempt the greedy pheasant and the hare.....
A dry cake can tempt a wild boar, miss, do you think that sounds believable?
The villagers put the wild boar on the cart that the pheasant had prepared.
The cart was a pheasant that was re-prepared and removed the mattress that had been laid out - it was originally intended for the young lady to sit and hang the prey in front of the car.
Now, wild boars occupy the cart, pheasants and hares crowd in the corners.
"Miss, you can sit in front of the car." The pheasant put the small cushion in front of the car and patted it.
Qixing glanced at the thin donkey pulling the cart: "I'll walk, the wild boar is very heavy." ”
The wild boar was heavier than the young lady, and with one person, the thin donkey couldn't pull it, so the pheasant didn't persuade him again, and said, "Uncle Wang said that even if our feet are slow, half a day is enough to walk to the city." ”
This is already the outskirts of Xucheng County, and the young lady will walk slowly, and she will not walk too hard.
But Uncle Niu also misestimated, they ..... In other words, the young lady's footsteps have been reached in less than half a day.
The young lady walked unhurriedly, but the faster she walked, the thin donkey and the pheasant could not keep up with her.
At last the young lady slowed down and rested on the side of the road for a moment before continuing her journey with her and the thin donkey.
The pheasant held the car behind, looked at the wild boar on the car, and then looked at the young lady walking in front of the donkey, and turned a lot of questions in his heart.
"Miss." She couldn't help but call.
Qixing turned around and asked, "Are you still tired?" She paused, "Don't be afraid, we'll be there soon." ”
Hearing the latter sentence, the pheasant wanted to laugh a little, and she often said this sentence when she pulled the young lady to the house.
The words were said to the young lady, but in fact they were also said to herself.
I didn't expect the young lady to remember, and now come to comfort her.
The pheasant's heart was sour, swallowed back the flipped question, and said loudly: "Miss, I have already asked Uncle Wang where to sell the prey, and the approximate price, it will depend on my ability in a while, I will definitely sell these prey at a good price!" ”
The young lady looked at her, smiled slightly, and nodded.
Today they were lucky, just entered the West Market and met a restaurant to buy, first attracted by two little girls pulling wild boars, after seeing it, they happily accepted all the prey.
"Girl, if your family finds good prey again, come directly to Shunde Building to find me." The steward surnamed Sun said with a smile.
Family, they don't have a family, the family is Miss herself, the pheasant thought to herself, lowered her head to pull the cart and didn't speak, and the young lady responded well.
Shunde Building is a small restaurant, unloading at the back door, the guys unloading the prey, looking at the two girls curiously, while whispering, "Orion outside the city?" "When did there be a hunter outside the city?" "Aren't they all farming and fishing in the lake?"
Qixing and the pheasant waited quietly while looking and discussing, and soon the account room was settled, and the pheasant couldn't hide his excitement and shook Qixing's hand: "We have money." ”
Qixing also nodded, called the steward who was leaving, and asked, "Where can I get a bed in this city?" ”
Bed? The steward was stunned for a moment, isn't this kind of family buying and buying all the men in the family, what can the two girls see?
However, thinking that the two girls were pulling wild boars to sell, it should be that the adults in the family couldn't leave, so the steward thought about it and said, "Dongshi, the craftsmen and craftsmen are all over there." ”
......
......
In the past, when she was in the Lu family, Miss Qixing lived in a side courtyard, and the bed she slept on was far less exquisite than that of the ladies at home, but when she left the Lu family, Qing Pheasant knew that even if the bed was not exquisite, the price was not low.
The pheasant stared at a small couch, which was similar to the lower bed she slept in at Lu's house, and after asking the price, she couldn't help muttering: "It turns out that I have been sleeping on three wild boars." ”
The guys who entertained the customers were all stunned: "What did the girl say?" We don't have wild boars here. ”
The pheasant smiled at him, didn't bother to explain, turned his head to look at Qixing, and called Miss with some grievances.
I knew that life was not easy after leaving the Lu family, but I really felt it, and I was still sad in my heart.
The young lady's expression was very calm, but the pheasant saw how carefully the young lady was inspecting it carefully, and even stroked the beds.
I must have liked it.
Now I know that I want to buy these beds, and it is not enough to catch and sell all the wild boars in the wild boar stream, how sad it should be.
"Miss...."The pheasant called softly, and then cheered up and whispered, "When I go back, I will help you make traps, we, we will catch more prey, and one day we can afford it." ”
Miss Seven Stars sighed and shook her head: "No." ”
No? Did the young lady give up? What is the pheasant going to say, the young lady has already spoken to the guy.
"Do you sell tools here?" She asked.
The guy didn't seem to understand: "Tools? What tool? ”
The pheasant understood a little, and a thought popped up in his heart, wouldn't it.....
The young lady's voice had already sounded, and names that were unfamiliar to the pheasant came out, "Bulldozer knife, axe saw, curved ruler, ink fountain line......."
These names were not unfamiliar to the shop guy, but they surprised him even more, and a little funny.
"Girl." The guy smiled and asked, "Are you going to make your own bed?" ”
Qixing nodded: "Yes." He smiled at the guy and raised his hand and waved it gently, "My hands are very skillful." ”
