Chapter 17: Trickery (Part 1)
"Master, when did you come?"
Yu Hao opened his eyes, he looked at the sky that was already bright, looked at the sunlight sprinkled in the forest, and then looked at the animal carcasses outside the medicinal powder in the distance, and Mengkun standing in front of him, he was shocked in his heart, and jumped up from the ground.
"I came here before dark last night. ”
Meng Kun was actually a little speechless, he didn't expect Yu Hao to sleep for so long after lying down, and now the sun has risen and is almost overhead.
Yu Hao also found out, he was extremely embarrassed, scratching his head embarrassedly, and said a little hesitantly: "This, this ......"
"What is this, you kid can do it!"
Mengkun saw his cowering appearance, he couldn't help but give him a chestnut, Yu Hao was stunned by him, but he didn't dare to complain.
"I went on cutting bamboo. ”
Yu Hao was afraid that Mengkun would beat him again, so he directly found an excuse and wanted to slip away, but was grabbed by Mengkun, who pinched his shoulders and turned him around.
"Don't you want to eat?"
Grunt
Yu Hao listened to Mengkun's words, looking at the hare next to him who was grilling on the fire, his stomach directly gurgled, and his lips couldn't help but start squirming.
"This is for me?"
Yu Hao resisted the urge to rush up to solve the hunger in his belly, he looked at Meng Kun expectantly, Meng Kun glanced at him angrily, and said lightly: "I didn't bother you when I saw you sleeping soundly last night, and the food I brought to you has been eaten by me, so you will be hungry with this rabbit, and I will bring you some more at night." ”
"But I've slept for so long today, and I haven't started work yet?" Yu Hao was about to step forward to take down the rabbit and eat it, but when he thought that he was about to sleep until noon and woke up, he was still a little apprehensive, so he was ready to try Mengkun's attitude.
Mengkun didn't know what Yu Hao was thinking, he found that this kid was as slippery as ever, calculating everything, not worrying at all, he didn't want to worry about him, but said seriously: "Since you have found a way, it is not bad for this time, you have the strength to work when you are full, let's go eat first." ”
"Yes. ”
Yu Hao directly took the rabbit off the fire, tore off a leg and handed it to Meng Kun, Meng Kun waved his hand, did not answer, Yu Hao was not polite, took back the leg, and gnawed it directly across his mouth.
Not to mention, Mengkun's roasted rabbit is not bad, Yuhao has also slept in the open at a restaurant outside, and he has also roasted game, but it is still far from Mengkun's technique.
Seeing Yu Hao eating with relish, Mengkun was also very satisfied, he actually didn't need these ordinary foods to satisfy his hunger, but Mengdie was a mortal, so he followed her to eat.
Now with the addition of Yu Hao, Mengkun has to cook more meals every day, but it's nothing for him, anyway, he's used to it.
Soon, Yu Hao finished eating the roast rabbit, burped, clapped his hands, stood up from the ground with a woodcutter, said hello to Mengkun, and then swept into the bamboo forest, waving the knife to start today's task.
Mengkun didn't stay here for long, he simply packed up the dishes after Yu Hao left, and then turned around and left.
Yu Hao's estimate was correct, he really completed the previous task on the fifteenth day, although he was as tired as a dog, but he was happy that he did not extend the penance and increase the number of bamboo felling.
But since then, Woo Ho has had to dig ditches and hike back and forth to Stone Village every day.
At the beginning, Yu Hao was also a little unbearable, but he slowly got used to it, and with the special potion that Mengkun configured for him every day, he gradually showed two states, one was dying when he returned to Stone Village every night, and the other was that he was alive and well every morning when he went out.
Although this torture is not comfortable, the effect is still obvious, and Yu Hao found that his body has become stronger after this period of training.
Especially the muscles, Woo Hao found that his shoulders, arms, and abdomen were bulging out of several large pieces, and the power hidden in them made him believe that if he was allowed to fight against Long Chen now, he could fight him head-on, and he would not fall behind.
The second is energy, Yu Hao feels that his energy is very abundant, as if he can't use it up, he can now keep cutting bamboo from morning to night, and keep digging pits until his body can't stand it.
......
Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, it was more than two months later, during which Mengdie also knew the truth, she came many times with the big yellow dog, and Yuhao also used Zizhu to build a hut for her to rest by the Qingtan in the bamboo forest.
Mengdie doesn't like to play with those disciples of the Long family, she prefers to be close to Yu Hao, because Long Yi takes care of her everywhere, and the meaning of it doesn't need to be thought about.
Not to mention the other disciples of the Long Clan, but since Yu Hao had defeated them, Mengdie naturally would not accept their pursuit.
Therefore, Mengdie is sticking to Yu Hao, Yu Hao now also has time to play with her, he can cut down more than five hundred purple bamboos in half a day, and then spend half a day digging ditches, and he can deal with the rest of the time by himself, because Meng Kun saw that the three-month period was about to end, and he also intended to let him relax for a few days, and did not add any other tasks to him.
......
"Look at it, Golden Rooster Independence!"
Yu Hao stood on a bamboo stake, he slowly lifted one leg, bent his knees and lay cross-legged on the thigh of the other leg, his hands folded, and he stood like an old monk in meditation.
Seeing this, Mengdie shouted loudly, Yu Hao was very proud, his trick was a little bit of Shaolin Temple kung fu that the old man taught him when he was on earth.
He didn't dare to stand like this before, it was because this body was still very weak, he was afraid of losing face, and now that he has been exercising for so long, it is no longer comparable to before.
Therefore, Yu Hao stared at the dream butterfly below, and said provocatively: "Come, you count me and stand, let's compare endurance to see who is more powerful!"
"Compare, compare, who's afraid of whom!" Mengdie muttered, and directly began to count: "One, two, three, four, five......"
Dream Butterfly counted faster and faster, and she deliberately stimulated Yu Hao, wanting to see Yu Hao's reaction.
However, Yu Hao ignored her, he looked at Mengdie's cunning eyes, he was still standing on one leg on the bamboo stake, and the corners of his mouth quietly appeared a trace of curvature.
Mengdie didn't notice the change in Yu Hao's expression, she only cared about counting, from sitting first, to standing up, then sitting, standing up again, and so on.
Slowly, Mengdie gradually discovered that something was wrong, because now almost two hours have passed, and her mouth is already a little dry, but Yuhao still stands there without moving, still quietly listening to her weak voice: "Ten thousand and one, ten thousand and two, ten thousand and three, ten thousand and ......"
Mengdie really couldn't count, she looked at the proud Yu Hao, and was a little unconvinced, so she kicked at the big yellow dog sleeping next to her, and the big yellow dog was startled, turned over and got up.
Dream Butterfly nodded to Yu Hao, the big yellow dog didn't know what it meant, and was puzzled, only to see a bone thrown out of Dream Butterfly's hand, and the bone flew directly to Yu Hao's feet, followed by the big yellow dog that flew over and reacted.
"it!"
Yu Hao was taken aback, he subconsciously wanted to avoid the big yellow dog that flew over, but he stood for two hours for so long, he didn't move, his feet were already sore, if he hadn't wanted to dream of admitting defeat first, he would have come down a long time ago, and it was not as easy as it seemed on the surface.
Now this move, before he completely retracted the shrunken leg, the big yellow dog had already come to his feet, regardless of Yu Hao standing on the bamboo stake, it directly opened its mouth and bit the bone under his feet, and the body really hit the bamboo stake under Yu Hao's feet.
bang
The bamboo stake under Yu Hao's feet was hit by the big yellow dog, and a strong force came, the bamboo stake shook, Yu Hao couldn't stand anymore, and fell directly from the bamboo stake, and fell to the ground hard, and the wolf ate a mouthful of dirt.
"Damn brute, I'm going to kill you!"
Yu Hao was very angry, because his legs were sore, numb and weak after standing for a long time, and now he was thrown like this, and he fell apart, and the pain was even more penetrating.
Seeing this, Mengdie came over with a smile on her face, Yu Hao looked at her and said helplessly: "You are cheating!"
"You're not cheating!"
Mengdie bent down and picked up a long bamboo strip, she made a golden rooster independent posture like Yu Hao, and then clamped the bamboo strip under her waist, clinging to the other leg, if it wasn't for Yu Hao and her face, she really couldn't see it if she didn't look carefully.
As soon as Yu Hao looked at Mengdie's watch, he knew that his trick had been exposed, and at this time, his face couldn't help but be red and black, and he no longer dared to accuse Mengdie of cheating, but got up from the ground alone, and then walked away with some embarrassment.
