The land of the southern wilderness, on the bank of the Hualin River.

Under the command and cooperation of Master Chen and Master, the frolicking students finally set up the camp tent despite several twists and turns and jokes.

When it was time to distribute the dry food, the students kept laughing and chatting and lined up in a long line, but whenever it was their turn to receive the dry food, the naughty Li Sheng also honestly corrected his attitude, and after receiving the dry food with both hands sincerely, he bowed to the master who was in charge of distributing the dry food and the master Chen who was in charge of holding the dry food. After that, he ran to the gathering place where the students played and dined with a hippie smile.

"Master Xie, Master Chen. Xiao Zheng Mingqian smiled and took his share of the dry food, and only after the ceremony did he trot towards the gathering place of the students with a smile.

......Seeing that the students couldn't settle down after eating, the master couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, and took out two more dry food from the dry food bag in Master Chen's hand, and sat on the ground with a carriage, and said with a smile: "It's really unforgiving, like flowing water...... In the blink of an eye, these little ones have grown so big......"

"Hehe......" Master Chen chuckled, and after tying up the bag of dry food and putting it back on the carriage, he also sat down on the side and said, "Yes...... Even Ziyu is so old......"

The two of them leaned against the wheels of the carriage, separated only by a leather hydration bag hanging from the carriage rack.

"Hehe...... the master nodded and smiled, and gradually distributed another portion of dry food to Master Chen, looking at the children from afar and laughing: "I miss you and I at the beginning, I was also so stubborn and comfortable, but now I ......."

At this point, the master shook his head and smiled, then leaned his head gently back on the carriage, closed his eyes and sighed, "Alas...... It's nice to be young......"

"Who says it's not...... Chen Shi looked at the children with a smile on his face, and when he looked there, he seemed to have returned to when he was a child.

"Haha......" Xiao Zheng Ming was walking to the children, but suddenly saw a gorgeous colorful butterfly fluttering in front of him, and he couldn't help but stop and look around.

At this glance, Xiao Zhengming was attracted. Under the light, the colorful butterfly is even more colorful, and the sunlight makes the powder on its body and wings appear like a dream.

As if knowing that Xiao Zheng Ming was appreciating his excellent dancing, the butterfly danced several times and then returned to Xiao Zheng Ming's eyes and began to show its dancing skills.

"Hah. Seeing this, Xiao Zheng Ming's eyes suddenly widened with a smile. He was laughing, but he still felt sorry for the butterfly that was swallowed by the little black, but at this moment, when he saw it again, it was as if he had found sustenance, and the gloom in his heart was suddenly swept away.

"Wow-ah——, it's so beautiful......" Seeing this, Ziyu who noticed this side couldn't help but admire, which made Li Sheng and others also pay attention. Then, the children all got up from their seats and watched around the dancing butterflies.

The colorful butterfly dance, although the stage is not big and the audience is not much, but for it, it may be worth it.

"Haha......" Seeing the colorful butterfly dancing close to him, Xiao Zhengming couldn't help laughing, and stretched out his finger tentatively.

The colorful butterfly was not afraid, but it also came and tossed above Xiao Zhengming's five fingers, as if those five fingers were its new stage.

"Haha!" Xiao Zheng Ming was overjoyed, feeling cheerful and excited.

Only, the colorful butterfly only circled around Xiao Zhengming's fingers with five fingers, and then left suddenly. However, even if it left after the joy of it, they stopped and watched for a long time......

......

After the meal, the children, led by Li Sheng and Master Chen, divided into two teams - one team led by Li Sheng and went to search and hunt small animals in the small trees on the other side of the river, and the other team led by Master Chen went along the river bank to pick wild fruits and the like.

Of course, both teams had to cross the river, but there was a reef in one section of the river, and it was neither easy nor difficult for them to reach the other side of the river, and then they parted ways.

Xiao Zheng Ming chose to stay in the camp with his master, but they were not idle, and were sitting by the river fishing with a smile. Although, the rod was only two branches, and the hook was made of needle and thread, and the leaves were used as floats.

During this period, Chen Shi was the first to discover a fruit tree, although the fruit was jerky, but it was still edible. And when I returned, I found a lot of fungi in the forest, and I returned with a full load.

On Li Sheng and Ziyu's side, after several ambushes and searches, they finally found two white rabbits hiding in the grass to "steal" wild berries. However, when Li Sheng was squatting there to draw a bow and shoot an arrow, he was dragged by Zi Yu, who accidentally slipped behind, causing him to miss an arrow and startle away the two white rabbits.

So, in the end, Li Sheng, who was depressed, only brought back some wild berries with a bitter face. However, Ziyu was sharp-eyed, and found a seedling of wild potatoes on the way back, which also made the harvest on his side not too shabby.

Seeing the bitter look of Li Sheng, who had returned first, he couldn't help but smile when he turned his head to look at Xiao Zheng Ming and the master here, but at this moment, the drift of the green leaves of the two sank at the same time.

When the two of them pulled out the hook in the back, there were also two crucian carp, one large and one small, out of the water, which seemed to be the old and the young, and also provoked Li Sheng and the others to widen their eyes and open their mouths with joy. At this time, Chen Shi and the others happened to come out from behind the reeds on the other side of the river and looked at this side.

By dusk, the bonfire had already risen, and the group had no stove for fear of getting tired of the horses, so they could only barbecue dinner.

No salt and no ingredients, only soaked in water and dry roasted, although the appearance is not very high, but it is already good. In particular, when the bags of charcoal-grilled fish wrapped in leaves and mud are cut out, they are quite tender.

There are not many fish, and one and a half are enough for everyone to share, but the grilled mushrooms are skewered for a few people, and there are also sweet cuts of wild potatoes cooked on the kang, plus wild fruits, wild berries and dry food are abundant, this meal can be regarded as hearty and satisfying.

After the meal, everyone returned to the camp to sleep, and after the bonfire was extinguished, the frogs also chirped, and the insects also chirped, and there was a little starry light in a wild scene. That night, the sky was clear. The moon is bright, and there are no stars.

In the tent, the bedding is neat, but the children are not sleeping, lying on their backs, staggering, and snoring, which is from Chen Shi and Li Sheng himself. Especially Li Sheng, his toes were about to reach into Master Chen's mouth, and there was zero distance from his beard......

Chen Shi and Li Sheng slept on the left side of the tent door, Master and Ziping slept on the right side, and Xiao Zheng Ming and Ziyu slept in the innermost part of the tent. But seeing Ziyu hugging Xiao Zheng Ming sideways, sleeping so sweetly, and grinning from time to time, I don't know what kind of sweet dreams I had.

Here, in the entire camp, only Xiao Zhengming was still with his eyes open. He padd his head with his left hand and hugged Ziyu with his right hand so that the other party would not roll over to the outside of the bed.

Xiao Zheng Ming looked at the canopy of the camp tent with a calm gaze, where it was dark and silent, and there was nothing worth paying attention to.

He was still thinking about the day.

Xiao Hei's deeds, the death of the butterfly, and the Master's admonition...... All of this was replayed in his mind like a whim.

He didn't let go of his feelings, and he didn't blame Xiao Hei, and he didn't understand the Master's words, he was just a little sad - more difficult than the fragility of life, thinking about the rules of this world.

He hadn't been outside, and he didn't know what the outside world was like, although he had heard Grandpa Liang tell stories about the outside, but it was just a story, and it might not be true.

He didn't see much of it, and many times, he couldn't name many things. There were very few things he encountered, so few that there were only a handful, and in the place of Yiyuan Village, there were not too many things for him to think about.

He has some thoughts about the outside world, but he cherishes life here even more. If the butterfly hadn't died, if the Master hadn't said that, he wouldn't have thought about it—why do sheep eat grass and tigers pounce on sheep...... Why, after being born, do you have to die...... Rhubarb is like this, Uncle Wu is like this, and the butterfly is like this...... Or one day, I and my father will do the same......

He had a lot of thoughts in his head, and he didn't know what he was thinking when he recalled it for a while. I couldn't think of it, I couldn't sleep, and Xiao Zhengming didn't want to lie there, so he slowly untied Ziyu's "clamp" and walked out of the tent.

When Xiao Zheng Ming opened the curtain and went out, the master, who was supposed to be sleeping, slowly opened his eyes with a slight lag in his breath.

He watched Xiao Zheng Ming walk out of the camp, but he didn't say anything, and only after the curtain fell, he was covered by darkness again, and then he closed his eyes again and shook his head.

Outside the tent, not far from the doorway, there was a stone of one and a half sizes, and the moonlight poured down, and although it was surrounded by weeds, it was only low.

After coming out, Xiao Zheng Ming raised his eyes and looked around, although he didn't see any foreign objects or abnormalities. Only then did he look sideways at the stone.

After a slight pause, Xiao Zhengming walked forward, and then sat down on it.

After sitting down, he first glanced at the camp gate in front of him, but after seeing that there was not much movement inside, he slowly withdrew his gaze and lowered his eyes and looked at the grass in front of him.

On the grass, there are crickets jumping in, and they are walking as they came, and they are reluctant to stay too long.

Xiao Zheng Ming watched the other party leave before retracting his gaze and turned to his hands - his ten fingers were slender, clean, and clearly textured.

He was stunned when he looked at it, not knowing what he was thinking, but the moonlight only shone on the back of his head, and his face was not visible, and the tent in front of him gradually fell silent.

At that moment, I saw a white electric bolt coming out of his sleeve, but it was Xiao Hei who came out of it, which instantly attracted Xiao Zhengming's attention.

Blackie went out very quickly, but has since returned to normal. Seeing that it was holding its head high and crawling unhurriedly to the part of the stone that was located on the left side of Xiao Zheng Ming's back, it then entrenched itself and confided in the letter: "Hiss." ”

Seeing this, Xiao Zheng Ming was stunned, and then turned around to look at Xiao Hei's sight.

There, there is nothing, only fireflies, the moon and the blue water.

Seeing this, Xiao Zheng Ming was silent, only reflecting the scene there in his eyes. After a while, Xiao Zhengming silently stood up and changed his seat, choosing to sit side by side with Xiao Hei and look at the river.

He sat there like a little adult, his elbows propped up on his legs as his fingers intertwined, so silent that he could not hear anything. And the camp in the rear is no longer in his attention.

"Shhh Blackie, perhaps feeling that he was a little behind, moved a little further until he was close to the edge of the rock.

There was silence for a long time, only quietly looking into the distance and peacefully. The moonlight poured down from behind Xiao Zheng Ming, darkening his facial features, and only pouring out the figures of him and Xiao Hei.

"Blackie. After a long time, Xiao Zheng Ming suddenly called softly.

"Shhh Xiao Hei seemed to be psychic, and let out a soft hiss, but did not turn his head.

"Later...... You can't hurt the lives of weak creatures......" Xiao Zheng Ming looked at it calmly, the light of the glowing fire and water reflected his eyes brightly.

"Hiss......" Xiao Hei hissed softly, and then gently tilted his head to Xiao Zheng Ming's lap.

"Wow ......" Xiao Zheng Ming smiled slightly, he could feel Xiao Hei's heart, and its dependence and trust in him.

After that, Xiao Zheng Ming took out his right hand, held Xiao Hei from the stone in his palm, and put it in front of him, and asked with a light smile: "Xiao Hei, what do you say-what is the outside world like?"

"Hiss-hiss-" Xiao Hei, who was facing Xiao Zheng Ming, hissed in a hoarsing voice, but he didn't know what he was saying or what he wanted to express.

"Whew. Xiao Zheng Ming smiled slightly, turned his eyes to look at the night scene in front of him, and whispered with far-reaching eyes: "If there is a chance in the future, let's go out and have a look." ”

"Shhh

"Whew. Xiao Zheng Ming chuckled, and supported his chin with his left hand, and gently placed his right hand holding Xiao Hei on his right knee, choosing to watch quietly and say nothing.

This man and beast were happy and peaceful, but not long after, another snoring came from behind, and I don't know what the man in the tent was thinking......
