2. Hunting (second watch)
A boy a year or two younger than Sanssouci trotted towards the wing. He had two long ears that almost hung down his shoulders. He took Wuwu's hand and said happily, "Brother Wuwu, see what I brought you?"
It turned out to be a moon cake wrapped in a tube of oil paper, and the four red characters of "sesame moon cake" were written on the oil paper. In the past, every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Master would buy him a tube of these sesame mooncakes. This kind of mooncake is the most common in this area, because it is easy to make, tastes good, and the price is affordable.
Worry-free said gratefully: "Long ears, this moon cake was given by your host, right?"
The long-eared little brother nodded: "Our host's aunt Big Mouth is so good, she sent me so many moon cakes." She also told me to send you some too. Let's eat mooncakes and enjoy the moon together here tomorrow night. ”
Worry-free only then remembered that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. This time, Master was not around, and Wuwu forgot to buy moon cakes.
"Long Ears" was just the boy's nickname, named for the fact that his ears were so long that they almost hung down to his shoulders. Chang'er's real name is "Qu Fan", and he is an orphan in the nearby village of Qujia. His father has not been back since he left the village many years ago, and there is no exact news of him, and there are rumors that he died in battle after joining the army. His mother, who was in poor health, died two years ago. He herded cattle for his neighbor's aunt Dazui, who took care of his three meals a day, and sometimes gave him one or two of her children's old clothes.
Worry-free sometimes goes to nearby villages to make friends, and after getting to know Chang'er, they become good playmates, and sometimes they eat together at Aunt Dazui's house. Long Ears often come to the temple to play with Worry-free, and sometimes spend the night in the temple. It can be said that the two cottages were the warmest home for the two brothers.
Aunt Dazui also felt very sorry for these two poor children, and she specially sent mooncakes over after the Mid-Autumn Festival. This affection makes worry-free special touching.
Wuwu touched Chang'er's head, nodded and said, "Okay, you come over early tomorrow night, and I'll make you a barbecue to eat." ”
Long Ear likes the barbecue made by Carefree the most, and after eating it for the first time, he told Carefree that it was the most delicious food he had ever eaten.
The carefree little monk is actually a fake monk, including the fact that he eats meat, and the villagers who often come to Shangxiang nearby are also aware of it, and everyone is used to it. According to Master's wishes, let Wu Wu shave his head bald so that he can live in the temple conveniently, and sometimes he can also go to the fate. Master also said that Wu Wu is not a person in Buddhism, and he will return to the vulgar in the future, and predicted that he would stir up storms and waves in the cultivation world in the future. Wu Wu didn't take it seriously, he felt that the master was just inspiring him, and who knows what will happen in the future. He felt that it would be nice to be able to heal the disability in his leg and live a life with meat to eat.
Sanssouci is good at barbecue, and the master doesn't care about him, and even builds two huts behind the temple for him to live in, just so that he can live a free life. He has a natural keen sense of smell for wild beasts, and he can judge accurately where wild beasts are infested and pass by, and the hunting traps laid can basically catch prey every time. Although he has a limited leg, he has caught more prey than the average hunter with this skill.
Carefree pulled the long ear over, unbuttoned his trouser belt, and pulled the pants directly to the knee, revealing the white and tender little ass. Long Ear has two rows of red tooth marks clearly visible on the right buttocks, and it is also a little red and swollen, with some blood scabs.
"Does it still hurt?" asked Carefree distressedly.
"Well, it's fine when you don't move. When I walked, it hurt a little bit. Long Ear replied.
"You told me to come and play with you less, so as not to be bitten by that vicious dog on the road. But I don't have anyone to play in the village, so I can't help but want to come to you. I took a dog-beating stick with me this time. Long Ear said a little aggrieved, and then proudly shook his freshly sharpened dog-beating stick.
This dog-beating stick is quite delicately sharpened, just a twelve-year-old child, and a stick may not be able to scare the vicious dog of the Bao family. That vicious dog is said to be a different species from the Western Regions, and its body is huge and strong, not to mention that a child with long ears is not an opponent, and ordinary adults are not necessarily its opponents.
A cruel look flashed in Carefree's eyes. During this time, he has been thinking hard about how to get rid of the dog. He is not noble enough to eliminate harm for the people, he just wants to get rid of this danger on the road for the long-eared little brother.
Worry-free let Chang Er sit on the small bench, and then hold Long Er's left hand with his right hand, palm to palm, and cross the marrow washing Yi tendon true qi to Long Er's buttocks. After the True Qi was washed back and forth three times, the redness, swelling and bruising were basically gone.
Chang Er looked at the tooth marks that were no longer red and swollen, and pressed them tentatively in confusion, and then increased the pressure force, and found that it was not painful at all. Chang'er shouted happily: "Brother Wuwu, you are so powerful!"
Carefree smiled: "The medicine I gave you last time seems to be a little slow to take effect." Recently, I reviewed the exercises taught me by my master, and then realized some methods for healing injuries, but I didn't expect the results to be so fast. ”
"Long Ear, let's go see if we have caught any prey in the trap in the back mountain. Carefree pulled his long ears and walked towards the hunting trap in the back mountain.
Looking at the limping walking posture of carefree, Long Ear asked, "How long does your master say it will take for your leg to heal?"
"If you insist on cultivating every day, it will probably take half a month. ”
"Wow, then we can go up to the mountains to hunt together, and we can go to a long distance to play together, and we can..." After all, there are many things that cannot be done without worrying about walking inconvenience.
Wuwu touched the head of the long ear, and happily agreed: "Okay, okay, you can do whatever you want in the future, I will listen to you." ”
After walking for about a mile, he came to a large tree about two feet thick, and a hole in the ground was exposed, and the weeds and branches that had been covered with it had been crushed. There are also a few large words written on the trunk of the tree to warn the nearby villagers: "Watch out for traps!"
When I looked into the trap, sure enough, there was prey falling in. Sanssouci pulled a ladder about the height of the trap from the grass, and the two of them descended the ladder into the trap. The prey that fell in was a brown muntjac that had died from blood loss from falling onto the tip of the upside-down bamboo. Some of the blood stains were black and coagulated, and some of the blood closest to the muntjac was still bright red and did not coagulate, so Sanssouci determined that the muntjac probably fell into the trap in the morning, and then kept bleeding, and died less than an hour.
Wu Wu looked at the bleeding muntjac and thought with a little pride: "I am really accurate in judging the whereabouts of wild beasts, and I can catch prey almost every time." ”
The two took out the rope, tied one end of the rope to the muntjac, and then pulled the other end of the rope back to the ground.
