Chapter 2 If you don't be a hero, you will be a thief
Wan Xiaotian lay naked on the mat, sleeping soundly, the pale yellow jujube beard-like pendant on his neck flashed and shone slightly, like a firefly, flashing with Wan Xiaotian's breathing. Wan Danian said that this pendant was the only thing on his body except for a small quilt when he picked Wan Xiaotian back, so Wan Xiaotian has been wearing it and never leaving his body, hoping to find his biological parents one day.
Wan Xiaotian is dreaming again, since he broke his forehead when he was seven years old, and blood fell on the jujube pendant, he began to dream every night.
Every time he dreamed, he ran in the Tianshan Mountains, and kept running. A strange footwork, which looks crooked, but Wan Xiaotian, who has been running for three years, feels that this posture is very chic. From the beginning he was at the same speed as a normal child, to now it is easy to chase a hare. At first, Wan Xiaotian thought he was dreaming, but then every time he was a little curious, he ran to the mountain and took a turn, and found that although he had never been on the mountain, he was too familiar with the road on the mountain, and he had to jump up and down in the mountain every night. talked to Wan Danian, Wan Danian thought he was talking nonsense, and slapped him, Wan Xiaotian didn't dare to say it to Wan Danian again.
The next day, Wan Xiaotian woke up hungry, and his belly growled. Can you not be hungry, ran all night. So he can't get fat no matter how much he eats, and he looks skinny and malnourished.
Grabbed a piece of iron that looked like a sword beside him, pulled out his legs and went out, and ran into the dense forest at the foot of the Tianshan Mountain, only to see a puff of smoke, Wan Xiaotian disappeared from the village, and in less than a quarter of an hour, he came back with two pheasants. The hands and feet were nimble, the chicken feathers were plucked and washed, the fire was set up, and the pheasants were roasted, and after a while, the aroma was already overflowing.
"Stinky boy, who are you going to steal chickens again?" A red-faced man pushed the door in and reprimanded Wan Xiaotiandao with a straight face.
"Wronged, Uncle Dog, I caught it myself, you see that the dew on my body hasn't dispersed yet", Wan Xiaotian got up and said aggrievedly while shaking the torn clothes on his body.
How to name it in the mountain village, how to feed it, so the red-faced man is called Wan Goudan. Wan Xiaotian has a feeling every time he calls someone, Wan Danian did not treat himself badly in naming, and gave him a fairly elegant name. However, Uncle Goudan is one of the few people in the village who has seen the world, he has been in a private school in the town for a few days, he recognizes a few words, and he changed his name to Sancao, Wan Sancao, the third in line.
"Yo, you really caught it, have you grown your skills?", Uncle Goudan sat down as he spoke, unceremoniously tore a chicken leg, and ate it. The two of them snorted and snorted and finished eating the two chickens in a short time.
"Uncle Dogdan, tell me the story of Bai Yixiao's pursuit and killing of Jiangyang thieves. Wan Xiaotian wiped his mouth and begged.
"I've listened to it more than a dozen times, I'm annoyed if you don't bother me", Uncle Dog Egg waved his hand and slapped Wan Xiaotian's head, "Don't think about the rivers and lakes all day long, I'll take you to the mountains to hunt from tomorrow." ”
Aunt Goudan was ground by the village chief for a long time, and finally agreed to let Uncle Goudan take Wan Xiaotianxue to hunt. The main reason is that there is a rule in the village, whoever learns to hunt will be the prey that belongs to whomever he catches, but he also has to take care of other people's food. Children with fathers naturally don't have to be so troublesome, just bring their own babies, but the strong labor in mountain villages will be lost every year, and those children who don't have fathers must also have someone to take them, and this rule has slowly formed.
Wan Xiaotian's amount of food is too big, and Aunt Goudan feels that the gains will outweigh the losses, so even if Wan Xiaotian and Uncle Goudan are the closest, they have never let go, and they didn't agree to it last night.
"Really?," Wan Xiaotian said happily, his eyebrows raised, but he secretly said in his heart, I will definitely not let her manage myself like this when I marry my wife in the future, it's really the opposite, can't a man be the master or a man? But he was still very happy to be able to go up the mountain to hunt, although every night he dreamed of going up and down the mountain, but there were no beasts in the dream for him to fight, and his small body was a little afraid of death when he went alone, so although he was bold, he never challenged those big beasts, just hit a few pheasants and hares to fill his stomach.
"Okay, it's really good, such a happy thing, you have to drink a little wine, Uncle Dog Egg is waiting, I'll go to Uncle Zhu Mao to order a drink", after saying that, the girl ran away.
Uncle Dog Egg shook his head, and said in his heart that it would be strange that you could ask for wine.
Wan Xiaotian ran to the only tavern in the small mountain village and shouted: "Uncle Zhu Mao, I am going to hunt tomorrow, and I will have the money to pay off your account in the future. With that, the big speaker sat down on a stool in the tavern.
"Oh, someone took you to learn to hunt? Good thing, we should really settle the account, yours plus your old man, how much is this, not interest, only the capital, you just fight a tiger is not enough to pay off the debt, but also on credit, wait until you pay off the account and come back, or take the money." Uncle Zhu Mao said angrily.
"Hey, Uncle Zhu Mao, folks in the township, give me some face, I'm going to learn to hunt, aren't you happy, everyone has fun." Wan Xiaotian stepped on the stool with one foot and said to Uncle Zhu Mao.
"It's never too late for your Uncle Pig Mao to be happy when you change your account, stinky boy, fart, just learn to drink. A middle-aged woman wrapped in a headscarf came in from behind and said to Wan Xiaotian.
"Aunt Zhu Mao said this, I'm so old, and it's not in the way to take a sip. "Wan Xiaotian saw Aunt Zhu Mao coming, and his heart was terrible, this time he was going to return in vain, only Uncle Zhu Mao was here, so it was better to say a little. Aunt Pig's opinion of him is too deep.
"Forget it, I'll buy it with the money, I'll go get the money. Wan Xiaotian said a lot, thinking that he had to bring the wine back, otherwise he would have no face to see Uncle Dogdan.
The eyeballs rolled around, there is, there is a lot of wealth, go borrow some flowers first, and then pay it back. After a while, Wan Xiaotian came to the back of a magnificent compound, glanced around, felt that there was no one, climbed the tree with his hands and feet, and reached the wall from the tree, one by one, a little clumsy, it was really a little far away from the courtyard wall and the tree.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a dirty and thin old man jumping up the wall from the inside of the wall, Wan Xiaotian couldn't close his mouth in surprise on the tree, a martial arts master, or a fellow practitioner, Wan Xiaotian didn't care that he was still on the tree, and hurriedly shouted in a low voice: "Senior master, stay and stay."
Wan Xiaotian likes to listen to Uncle Goudan tell interesting stories about the rivers and lakes outside, although he just tells the story of chasing and killing Jiangyang thieves with a white smile over and over again, but Wan Xiaotian just likes to listen, Wan Xiaotian was seven years old that year, and he made a big ambition, if he doesn't want to be a hero, he will be a thief, anyway, my Wan Xiaotian's name wants everyone to know. So Wan Xiaotian slashed and slashed with a nondescript wooden sword all day long, looking nervous, shouting all day long to break into the rivers and lakes, and now when he meets a master, where is he willing to let go of this opportunity.
Regardless of it, he jumped down from the big tree, ran to the old man's side, knelt down with a plop, and shouted in his mouth: "Boy Wan Xiaotian, beg the master to be under the door." ”
