"It's a strange thing, I've never seen it before. A boy of twelve or thirteen years old, with a slightly chubby figure and a simple face, pointed to the crystal clear river and said in amazement.

I saw a creature carrying a green carapace on its back in the river, and four short legs were swimming slowly.

"Sanniu, this thing seems to be a turtle, and I heard that the stewed soup tastes extremely delicious. There were three other teenagers of the same age beside the little fat man, and the handsome young man in a blue cloth coat replied after thinking for a moment.

Poof!

Hearing the words of the young man in blue, the three people, including the little fat man, suddenly made extremely consistent actions and jumped directly into the river.

"This is the river in Taoyuan Village, and it's the first time I've seen a turtle, and I can finally taste new game. The three teenagers' eyes lit up, and they suddenly grabbed the turtle quickly, and said excitedly.

All four of them are the owners who fish and catch shrimp in the river all year round, and the water is excellent, and jumping into the river is as easy as entering your own bathtub.

The three people who jumped into the river didn't care at all that their clothes would get wet, and they were even more worried that the turtle would escape, so they immediately dispersed and surrounded it with great cooperation.

"Yes, fish, shrimp and hares are tired of eating. The other teenager echoed, his eyes fixed on the turtle, and saliva was already overflowing from the corners of his mouth.

Obviously, these are a few gluttonous foodies, who go down to the river to fish and shrimp, go up the mountain to catch hares, and climb trees to dig birds' nests.

Because of this, after hearing that the turtle was extremely delicious, the three of them immediately jumped into the river to catch it.

"Two dogs, three cows, iron eggs, don't get too close to the turtle's head when you catch them, otherwise it will hurt to be bitten!" the young man in blue reminded standing alone on the shore, chuckling.

Although it was the first time he had seen a tortoise, the young man in blue had already learned about it on his father's bookshelf, so he was able to recognize it immediately.

Hearing the words of the young man in blue, the three teenagers in the river were immediately vigilant, and quickly grabbed the tail of the turtle and easily pinched it.

A moment later, the little fat man Sanniu had already caught the turtle ashore, and the other two teenagers even caught a small crucian carp by the way.

The ability to catch fish in the river water, the three of them are already perfect, and every time they go into the water, they don't miss a shot.

After putting the turtle and the crucian carp into the wooden barrel they had brought, the four young men in blue lay down on the boulder by the river and began to bathe in the sun, drying their soaked clothes by the way.

This large stone is two feet wide and has a smooth surface, which is a "stone bed" frequented by four people.

Although it was sunbathing, there was not too much sunlight shining down from above, and it was already blocked by the tall mountain walls and foliage.

The sky above this place is not open, but is blocked by tall mountain walls on all sides, and there is only a hollow in the middle with a range of 300 zhang.

Most of the surrounding mountain walls are quite smooth, and even if it is extremely difficult to climb up, there are many large trees growing tenaciously from the mountain walls.

The trees were quite old and very lush, so that the canopy was quite wide, and nearly half of the hollow above them were obscured.

It is also because it is covered by the canopy of trees for nearly half of the area, which makes this place extremely secret, even birds and beasts flying high in the sky rarely notice this place.

Because of the topography, the spring water on the mountain pours down from the eastern wall of the place, forming a waterfall and turning into a small river.

When it rains, the water flow of the waterfall increases considerably, making the water flow in the creek also rapid.

After a bend along the mountain wall, the river flows through a crevice in the rocks that exists in the middle of the southern peak, and does not flood the area.

In this hidden place with strange terrain, there is a small village, and the four teenagers are the juniors of the village.

It was surrounded by mountains and in the middle of a mountain range, and the four teenagers had climbed to the top with great difficulty, but there was still a mountain behind the mountain, and they could not even see the end.

The four teenagers with curiosity not only did not see the outside world, but were also severely reprimanded by the village elders and their parents, and even punished them for not going out for three days.

The elders and parents in the village had already warned them that the outside world was very dangerous and they must not leave the village, but they did not expect that they had climbed to the top of the steep mountain, and they were naturally extremely angry.

For the active four, not being able to go out for three days is a great torment.

Unbeknownst to the four boys, there was a natural cave under the western peak in this small village, and it was easy to get out of the village to the outside world.

However, the cave has been blocked by a large rock brought in by the villagers to prevent the children of the village from accidentally breaking in, and also to prevent outsiders from accidentally breaking in.

Because of this, the village is extremely secluded and completely isolated from the outside world, and the villagers live a self-sufficient life, which is called Taoyuan Village.

That's why these four teenagers will live to be more than ten years old and have never seen a turtle.

This time, the turtle took advantage of the dry weather and the river level to swim in unexpectedly from under the cracks in the rocks.

Although the scope of this place is not large, there are only 40 households and 200 people in the entire Taoyuan Village, which is not crowded.

Near the peak, there is a large area of shade due to the lush canopy of trees, and it has been chosen by the villagers as a place to live, and dozens of wooden houses have been built.

The middle of the village is not shaded by any vegetation, and the sun is relatively abundant, so it is used by the villagers to grow crops.

It is precisely because of the isolation from the world that the villagers of Taoyuan Village are extremely harmonious, often enthusiastic and mutually helpful, and there are very few disputes, and fights only occur among children.

The simple villagers generally believe that it is easy to live by a rough name, so the names of the four teenagers are quite peculiar, and three of them are named Ergou, Sanniu, and Tiedan.

Only the name of the young man in blue is better, Xiaofeng, when his father gave him this nickname, he was opposed by the old man in the village who insisted on a rough name.

Although everyone in the village called him Xiaofeng, the father of the young man in blue had already given him a big name, Li Xuanfeng.

In the mischievous quartet, the other three listen to Komine, because he can always think of more and better ideas.

The reason why they are called the naughty mischievous foursome is because the four of them have caused a lot of trouble in the village, and they have already become well-known figures in the village.

The last time, half a month ago, under the leadership of Xiao Feng, the four of them wore robes and straw hats hanging from hay, and went to dig out the honeycomb at this time.

Although their straw hats hung from the hay, they could not completely stop the frenzied swarm of bees, and soon the faces of the four of them were red and swollen.

In the midst of the pain, the four of them hurriedly fled, but the bee colony still chased after them, making them constantly make ouching sounds.

In the panic, Xiao Feng had an idea, thinking that he could avoid the swarm by diving into the water, and immediately ran towards the river with his three companions.

So the chickens and dogs jumped all the way, and the villagers who were on the way to escape suddenly suffered because of this, and were bitten by the crazy bee swarm, and there were a lot of angry scolding: "You little rabbit cubs!"

After escaping all the way, Xiao Feng and the four of them came to the river, and immediately jumped into the water without hesitation, finally avoiding the bite of the swarm.

At this time, the villagers who were working nearby had also set the hay on fire, and soon smoked away the frenzied swarm of bees.

After seeing that the calm had been restored in the water, Xiao Feng and the four of them emerged from the water, and went ashore under the angry gaze of many villagers with red envelopes on their faces, and they didn't dare to make a sound at all with their heads down, knowing that they had caused a lot of trouble.

What made these villagers cry and laugh was that Sanniu, who had been bitten like a pig's head, was still holding the honeycomb in his hand at this time, and was chased all the way by the bee swarm, and he was never willing to throw it away, no wonder he was chased all the way.

Seeing this scene, the villagers on the shore had to sigh that the courage of these four teenagers when they were gluttonous was really immeasurable.

In the silence, Xiao Feng complained a lot in his heart: Dad said that there is extremely sweet honey in the honeycomb, why don't you say that bees are afraid of fire, otherwise I wouldn't be so embarrassed.

But his father had warned him that the bee colony was extremely dangerous, but he chose to take the risk in order to taste the honey.

In the end, the four of them were taken home by their parents and reprimanded, which made them even more angry that they still didn't eat honey in the end, and under the decision of the old village chief, the honey was compensated to the villagers who suffered.

So a few days later, the four of Xiaofeng, who were stung by the bees, searched for a honeycomb on a big tree again.

After knowing that bees are afraid of fireworks, this time, under the leadership of Xiao Feng, the four of them lit the hay and successfully smoked the bees, easily removed the honeycomb, and enjoyed honey happily.

"It's so sweet, Xiaofeng knows so much, this honey is really delicious. When they were feasting, Sanniu and they didn't forget to praise Xiaofeng.

After tasting the sweetness of honey, Xiao Feng and the four of them unanimously felt that it was worth it to be bitten like a pig's head last time.

......

Lying on the stone bed, looking at the blue sky in the void above, Xiao Feng's eyes already had a lot of thoughts.

Why do the elders in the village say that the outside world is very dangerous and they are not allowed to leave, so should they stay in the village for the rest of their lives?

Xiao Feng was extremely curious about the world outside Taoyuan Village, he had already learned a little about it in his father's bookshelf, and it seemed to be much more exciting than Taoyuan Village.

Although he and his four companions were extremely happy to search for game around the village, Komine could not suppress his curiosity about the world outside the village.

Looking at the blue sky above, Xiao Feng secretly decided in his heart that when he grew up, he must go to the world outside the village to see and increase his knowledge.

However, Xiao Feng did not have the idea of leaving Taoyuan Village forever, but decided to go to the world outside the village with great caution, and finally return to live in the village.

Although extremely curious about the outside world, Komine still fully trusts his father's decision.

Since even his well-informed father chose to stay in the village, it means that life in the village is the best, and even if he goes out to see it in the future, he will come back.

But at this time, Xiao Feng would never have thought that soon after, he would leave Taoyuan Village, but he regretted the thought at this time, and he was extremely nostalgic for life in the village!
