Seeing Li Chen looking back at her, Zhao Xiaoshuang immediately pretended to be nonchalant, as if she was not afraid at all, but the paleness on her face betrayed her.

Li Chen couldn't help laughing.

"That's a big insect, I'm afraid it's normal, I'm afraid too."

As he spoke, Li Chen pulled Zhao Xiaoshuang closer to him:

"Follow me, don't get carried away. You can't go any further into the mountains, just hunt some rabbits and birds nearby. ”

Because Daluo Mountain is very dangerous, there are no people so early.

After a while, the two of them hit two hares and a few pheasants.

"Another one."

Zhao Xiaoshuang happily ran towards a pheasant that had been hit by an arrow.

At this time, a violent wind suddenly blew.

The wind from the tiger and the cloud from the dragon.

What's more, the wind is not going in the right direction.

Li Chen suddenly felt wrong: "Xiaoshuang, come back quickly." ”

Whew!

Immediately, with a thunderous roar, a tiger with yellow skin and black spots jumped out.

It stared at Li Chen and Zhao Xiaoshuang and wandered a few meters away.

Zhao Xiaoshuang subconsciously bent her bow and arrows.

"Stop!"

Li Chen shouted in a low voice, sweat continued to drip down his forehead, and he couldn't do it nervously.

Behind the tiger, in the three-foot-tall dead grass, something seemed to be approaching quickly.

Most likely a tiger.

"Calm down, don't mess around."

Li Chen comforted Zhao Xiaoshuang in his mouth, at least two tigers, with a short bow, it was really not something they could deal with.

However, the tiger's belly looked bulging, as if it had just eaten.

In this case, there is still life.

"Xiaoshuang! Listen to me. Put your bow away, don't keep an eye on it, and slowly retreat to me. ”

You can't show hostility, otherwise, you will really die.

Fortunately, the tiger had indeed just eaten and was bored and wandered away, and seeing that Zhao Xiaoshuang had no intention of attacking, it even lay down and looked lazily.

The two tensed their nerves and finally withdrew.

I turned around and ran down the hill without a child.

It's scary!

went down the mountain, but Zhao Xiaoshuang stopped, bit her lip and said, "I'll go back to the mountain alone and take a look." ”

"You don't want to die."

Zhao Xiaoshuang said to herself: "I have light steps, if I don't go inside, I shouldn't be able to touch those big insects."

Li Chen lowered his face and shouted: "I don't want to see my wife die in vain the next day!" ”

"The next day? Wife?! ”

Zhao Xiaoshuang's voice immediately became louder: "What are you talking about?" What wife?! ”

In this world, there is no such thing as a wife.

Li Chen said impatiently: "Forget it, it's too hard to explain, you shouldn't have heard it." Isn't there something to eat? ”

"I, I ......"

Zhao Xiaoshuang lost her confidence and lowered her head:

"I was careless just now, and I lost all my prey. If you go back like this, you're going to sell my sister again......"

Gotcha, I'm busy working for nothing, and I'm not going to have anything to eat.

The two of them had no choice, so they went to other mountains to wander around to see if there was a chance to catch the prey.

But those hills have long been trodden by, not to mention animals, plants have been cut down almost and transported away as firewood.

I didn't eat early in the morning, and I went up and down the mountain repeatedly, and the two of them were tired and dizzy.

"Drink some water."

Zhao Xiaoshuang handed Li Chen a pot of water.

Li Chen snorted, and was about to take it, when his hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"I didn't drink it." Zhao Xiaoshuang said aggrievedly, she thought that Li Chen disliked herself for drinking.

Li Chen didn't seem to hear her words, and slapped his thigh and said excitedly:

"There it is! Ah, water. We can't catch anything in the mountains, let's go to the river to catch fish, Xiaoshuang! Is there a river nearby? ”

Zhao Xiaoshuang to:

"There is a pool of water not far away, but the mountain is so cold that it freezes."

"It's better to freeze, it's easier to catch fish. Lead the way. ”

Li Chen is very experienced in this.

"This ......"

Zhao Xiaoshuang hesitated: "Are you willing to eat fish?" ”

In these years, most people don't like to eat fish, the poor lack oil and less salt, boiled out of the fishy bitter taste, and there are many spines, even if they eat wild vegetables, they are willing to eat this.

"Fish is a good thing, why don't I eat it?"

For cooking fish, Li Chen has a set.

Zhao Xiaoshuang raised her forehead and groaned, in the past two days, Li Chen's performance made her doubt her life.

I always hear strange words from his mouth.

The two came to the deep pool.

Very few people come here, and even fewer fishermen.

Li Chen first smashed the ice with a stone, and he could see countless fish fluttering in the water.

Without a net or anything, Li Chen grabbed seven or eight of them with his hands alone.

These fish are fat and big, and they can only take so much.

After putting away the fish, Li Chen ripped off a large handful of artemisia grass nearby, and relied on this thing to get rid of the fishy smell.

In addition, Li Chen also saw some non-toxic cassava.

Cassava is a staple food, which is a bonus.

Zhao Xiaoshuang took advantage of the gap and found a few pheasants and hares, and rejoiced in a bumper harvest.

……

Before noon, Li Chen and Zhao Xiaoshuang rushed back.

Far away from the courtyard gate, I saw Zhao Xiaowan leaning against the door, looking eagerly.

When she saw the figures of the two, Zhao Xiaowan ran towards Li Chen without thinking.

It's just that three or four meters away from Li Chen, she got into the arms of her sister Zhao Xiaoshuang again.

She wanted to hug Li Chen tightly, but she was still scared and didn't dare.

Because these two days are really like a dream, she is worried that it will be empty joy.

"Where the hell have you been?!"

Zhao Xiaoshuang burst into tears, and when she woke up, she was the only one left in the room, not to mention worrying about it.

She even thought about whether it could be that her sister killed Li Chen in the middle of the night, and she was dragging it to the mountain to bury it at this moment.

Because Li Chen couldn't get up so early, the bed was so neatly tied.

Li Chen thought that Zhao Xiaowan was worried that she was bullying her sister.

"Xiaoshuang, don't cry, your sister is fine, that is, I met a tiger, I took her hand, nothing else."

"Sister, did you hold your hand?"

Zhao Xiaowan asked curiously.

The focus of women's concerns is always different from that of men, and she doesn't pursue tigers, but she investigates Li Chen for holding hands with Zhao Xiaoshuang.

"Ah......h

Zhao Xiaoshuang, who has always been fearless, was speechless at the moment, and her face turned red.

Li Chen Zhenzhen said: "I'm for her good." If you don't hold her hand, what if she runs around and is in danger? ”

"you! I want you to be troublesome! ”

Zhao Xiaoshuang stomped her feet in shame, then covered her face and ran into the house.

"See, your sister is shy, what's this?" Li Chen said with a smile.

When they got home, a couple of hares were locked up, not going to eat, ready to sell for money.

Li Chen asked Zhao Xiaowan to bring a kitchen knife, a cutting board, and a basin of water.

Break open the belly of the fish, throw away the bitter gall, scrape the scales, wash them, and put the artemisia grass into the belly of the fish.

They cut some firewood from the hill and lit it in the courtyard and roasted the fish.

The Zhao sisters were shocked again.

Li Chen's killing of fish is skillful and completes it in one go.

Is he still the same Li Chen who never works with his hands?

"Sister, why is the prime minister stuffing grass into it? That's not a wild vegetable. ”
