Chapter 20: Into the Mountains to Hunt
Seeing that the guy was staying there, Da Kui said impatiently: "Please hurry up, I'm in a hurry." ”
The man hurriedly held the remaining seven strings of money in both hands and said: "The small shop is a small business, and few people take the money to settle the account." Don't want more than twenty texts, this is seven strings. The guest officer put it away. As he spoke, he walked over to Da Kui.
Da Kui put down his burden. grabbed the money string and stuffed it in his arms, picked up the burden and went out.
Out of the rice grain store, Da Kui stepped out of the city. On the road, he is still running all the way, and on the way, Da Kui's heart hurts like a knife, and his mother is reluctant to eat a mouthful of fine food at home all these years. It's been five years, and I'm afraid I haven't eaten a bite of meat. Da Kui secretly made up his mind, why did he have to go into the mountains to hunt some wild things to feed his mother.
When I got home, my mother was waiting in the hospital. Da Kui didn't say a word, and picked the rice grain into the kitchen. Pour the sweet potatoes in the grain jar aside, and clean the grain jar again. Lift it up and pour out the dust and put it back in place. The large grain tank is two hundred catties, and it is as easy as fiddling with a bowl in Da Kui's hands. Da Kui put two bags of rice into the jar and covered the lid, took two benches and put them on the side of the grain tank, and put the two bags of noodles on the stool.
Seeing that everything was in order, Da Kui took the rope and walked out of the house. The mother wondered, "When did my son become so strong?" ”
Da Kui smirked: "Niang Xiu asked, cook some porridge and steam a few steamed buns by yourself." I'll go into the mountains now, and I'll be back at noon. As he spoke, he found a firewood knife and pinned it to his waist, and he was about to leave with a flat shoulder.
But the mother said, "Son, you can't stop working when you come back, and you haven't even eaten a bite of breakfast." Don't leave yet, wait for your mother to sit down and eat breakfast before leaving!"
Da Kui smiled and said, "I'm not hungry, don't be busy!"
The mother pretended to be angry and said, "What's the matter?
Da Kui smiled innocently: "Fools listen to their mothers no matter what." As he spoke, he put down his pole and drew a firewood knife and put it on the ground. Mother looked at Da Kui and smiled, and went to the kitchen to work.
Da Kui looked left and right and saw that there were some dead branches at the root of the west wall. Thinking that he had been out for five years, his mother must have gone to the edge of the wasteland to pick up firewood by herself! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel sad, Da Kui walked over and walked into the kitchen with firewood and said, "Mother, I'll make a fire for you." ”
The mother smiled and said, "Well, you don't want to eat ready-made food without burning the fire?"
Until my mother cooks the meal, it is already the third pole of the day. Da Kui roasted those thieves (sparrows) on the stove, and the rice was roasted with sparrows, and it tasted particularly fragrant. Mother watched Da Kui eat two large bowls of rice, and then she was satisfied.
Da Kui put down his rice bowl and wiped his mouth, and said with a smile: "Mother, I'm full." Let's go fetch firewood, you eat slowly!" said and walked out of the house.
The mother was a little worried and said, "Son, come back early!"
"Got it, mother!" After saying this, Da Kui took the firewood knife and the rope and went far away.
Out of the village, Da Kui walked straight into the mountains, and ran quickly without anyone around, and in a short time he was already deep in the dense forest.
Da Kui put down his flat burden, held a firewood knife and cut down the dead branches around him and threw them at his feet. Cutting as you go, you have been walking a long way. Then I went back and picked up the firewood one by one, and in less than an hour I collected two large bundles of dry firewood, and piled them up like a hill. Da Kui untied the rope and tied up the dry firewood and tightened it. Then he straightened up and looked around, hoping to find some wild things. But there was silence all around, only the rustle of the leaves of the wind blowing, but where to find wild things.
Da Kui couldn't help but think, 'Maybe you have to go to the depths of the mountains and forests to have wild things', thinking that Da Kui found dozens of stones and put them in a cloth bag, picked up a flat shoulder, and ran to the depths of the mountains and forests. When I crossed the two hills, I saw a mountain stream at the base of the mountain in the distance.
Da Kui walked forward along the mountain stream for a while, and heard what seemed to be a pig humming. Although it is far away, Da Kui can see it clearly. A herd of wild boars, numbering thirty or forty, fluttered in the muddy water by the mountain stream.
I used to hear that wild boars are no better than domestic pigs, and if people rashly hurt them, the beast will also hurt people. Wild boars travel through the mountains and forests all year round and are very strong. Especially the two fangs in the mouth of the male wild boar are like two sharp knives, if you rush forward and can't hold the wild boar, one is unfortunately afraid of pig food.
Da Kui racked his brains and couldn't help it, but he thought that the old lady hadn't eaten a bite of meat in five years. I couldn't help gritting my teeth and walking a long way towards the mountain stream, who wanted to accidentally step on a dead branch, but it was just a very slight 'click', but it had already alarmed this group of wild boars. The wild boar is a beast with a good sense of smell and hearing, and Da Kui did not expect that an oversight had been discovered. Xu is a wild boar that rarely sees people in the mountains all year round, and does not run away when he hears movement. But they all turned their heads to look at Da Kui's hiding place, and Da Kui was motionless and hiding behind the bushes.
At this time, it is less than 100 steps away from the wild boar herd, and if you want to go forward, you will be discovered by the wild boars. Da Kui hid behind the bushes and waited for an opportunity, Da Kui waited for nearly an hour to see a lone wild boar come ashore from the muddy water. The wild boar smelled the smell of raw people, sniffed its nose in the direction of Da Kui, and walked slowly towards the bush where Da Kui was hiding.
Da Kui watched the wild boar come over in the gap in the bushes, and his heart couldn't help but beat the drum, and he lay motionless behind the bushes with the stones in his hands and waited. The wild boar got closer and closer, and when the wild boar was still twenty steps away from the bush where Da Kui was hiding, Da Kui suddenly got up, and hit the stone with his left and right hands to take the wild boar's eyes.
Da Kui's eyesight, strength and accuracy are the only achievements after five years of hard training. With this shot, the two stones burst out of the wind with a scream, and the two 'pop' sounds hit the eyes of the wild boar left and right. The wild boar screamed at the attack, rolled twice on the ground, and then got up again. did not retreat, but advanced, and rushed straight towards Dakui.
Da Kui saw that the rest of the wild boars were still far away, and his courage couldn't help but be strong. When the wild boar rushed closer, he suddenly bent down and grabbed one of the boar's front hooves, and lifted the wild boar up in a big circle with all his strength, and fell on a mountain rock with a 'pop'.
The wild boar screamed and bleed from its mouth and nose after this fall, and Da Kui pulled out his flat arm from the bushes and smashed it on the boar's head. As soon as he wanted to make up for it, he saw a group of wild boars all ashore and pounced on him together. "Oh, I'm coming," Da Kui screamed, and turned around and ran, but dozens of wild boars behind him were chasing after him.
Da Kui couldn't help but be a little scared in his heart: 'If you are caught up, you have to feed the pigs, run!' Da Kui used his strength to scurry through the mountains, and ran straight behind four mountains before there was no movement. In order to be safe, Da Kui climbed a big tree and looked in the direction he came. The wind blew the grass low and there was no trace of wild boars, so I was relieved.
