Chapter 309 Monster of the West Mountain
The sky was slightly bright, and Lin Na had already left with her heart full of sweetness and the gifts the man brought back from Xiangjiang. She couldn't go back home, so she went straight back to school, so she had to have a good day's rest.
Zhu Xuefeng also had a hasty breakfast and went straight to the driver's class of the steel rolling mill. He had to take out the jeep. This was convenient. If he wanted to use it, he could get it by himself. The driver's class usually took care of it.
When we returned to No. 95, the sky was slowly getting brighter. The two children also got up early because they had something fun waiting for them.
"Brother, after you left last night, Sister Xia came to see you. I told you that you had something to do and you went out and didn't come back at night. She seemed quite disappointed."
The younger sister hurriedly Reporting, Zhu Xuefeng was stunned and couldn't help but smell the smell on his body carefully. It was okay and relatively normal. Why did he feel guilty that he didn't dare to go home and face it after stealing food outside.
"Sister Xia knew we were going out today, so she asked us to wait for her for a while and said she would come early in the morning."
Zhu Xuesong added, Zhu Xuefeng scratched his head a little, it just happened last night Because of this kind of thing, I feel a little embarrassed to face Xia Yuhong today, but sooner or later this day will come. It will depend on the situation then.
"You guys didn't have breakfast, right?" Seeing that the two of them had no intention of taking action, Zhu Xuefeng asked curiously. His younger brothers and sisters were very diligent and would not be lazy.
"Sister Xia said she would come over without breakfast, and we can buy something before we leave."
"That's not because you said you wanted to eat Xisi's steamed buns, so Sister Xia followed your wishes and said she wanted to treat you to some steamed buns."
Zhu Xuesong unceremoniously exposed his sister's trick, Zhu Xuemei He glared at his second brother bitterly.
"Don't you have any objection? Otherwise, if you don't eat then, it's really..."
Zhu Xuefeng smiled and stopped the two of them from arguing.
"Second brother, bring a rice bowl and chopsticks. We will eat in the car later. Let's go. Let's drive over to find your sister Xia."
"Brother, let's take Xiao Hei there. Yes, it can catch pheasants.”
“No, last time it was snowy and in the middle of the night, it had a chance. Xiao Hei was useless during the day, and I don’t know where the cat went. Let it play by itself.”
The little girl pouted, feeling that Xiao Hei was no longer kissing her.
"Brother, do you think Xiao Hei has gone wild again? In the month since you have been away from home, I have never seen Xiao Hei return home, and I don’t know where he is playing."
< br>The second brother was already ready. He waved the machete twice and gestured a few times, urging the younger sister.
"Little sister, don't worry about it. Let's go hunt some pheasants. Don't you want pheasant feathers? Let's leave early and come back in the evening. If it's too late, it'll be too late."
Thinking of the beautiful pheasant feathers, little sister Sure enough, it diverted attention.
"Yes, Jie Di still wants it. I still want her by then, so let's go pick up Sister Xia now."
The three of them went out happily and met Uncle Zou After saying hello, I met the third uncle who had finished pouring the chamber pot and entered the courtyard. Most of the people in the courtyard were pouring chamber pots with women from the family. I didn't expect that the third uncle, who claimed to be a well-educated person, could still have the nerve to do this.
"Third uncle, you are really like this!"
Zhu Xuefeng raised his thumb with a smile, covered his nose, and ran away laughing with his younger brothers and sisters. The third uncle was blushing. He smiled and cursed at the leaving figures of the three brothers and sisters.
"This little guy knows that it is better to be young to distract you from the third uncle. He is happy so quickly."
After that, he returned to the front yard. This guy is very capable. , He treated his neighbors really well. When his boss became a full-time employee, he was rejected even when he came to thank him.
Don’t even ask for wine, let me keep it for myself, and say it’s all from the neighbors. This is all a piece of cake and nothing.
The day before yesterday, I shared the seafood and gave myself a bag of new tea. I am really open-minded. It is embarrassing to talk about my little calculations about others. I must treat others with sincerity in the future.
The three girls rushed to the car and saw Xia Yuhong trotting over from a distance. She was neatly dressed and clearly prepared. She looked so youthful in the morning light. Zhu Xuefeng hurriedly greeted her.
"Xiaohong, I didn't expect you to come yesterday. I went out for something tonight."
"I know, my little sister said it yesterday."
Xia Yuhong Still holding Zhu Xuefeng's hand, he carefully looked at the man's changes. Some of them were inexplicable. He hadn't seen him for more than a month, and he always felt something was different. Zhu Xuefeng felt a little nervous and quickly opened the car door.
"Come on, get in the car and let's talk again. Why haven't we seen each other for a month? You're still in trouble."
Looking at the person in front of him who has disappeared for more than a month, Xia Yuhong I'm also very happy. I heard that I was black, but I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
"Who is like you, running around for more than a month? I am going to the countryside to take labor classes, and I have been exposed for a week. This is the true nature of working people. By the way, what gifts did you bring me? You said you were going to bring me a gift. "
Zhu Xuefeng felt guilty, and when he saw that Xia Yuhong's expression and behavior were not strange, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and replied quickly.
"Of course there are gifts. I'll give them to you when I get back. They're all at home. Come on, get in the car. You sit in front."
"Sister Xia, good morning." The little girl called kindly. After saying hello, he stepped forward and took Xia Yuhong's hand. Xia Yuhong also lowered his head affectionately and touched his little sister's face.
"My little sister is dressed so beautifully today. Come on, let's get in the car and ask your eldest brother to take us to buy steamed buns. Your eldest brother has never taken me to eat steamed buns from Xisi."
As he spoke, he looked up and stared. After looking at Zhu Xuefeng, Zhu Xuefeng felt quite ashamed. It seemed like they had eaten roast duck just once when they were alone together. This was a real failure as a person. He really let down such a good girl. Plus what happened last night, he didn't dare to face it.
"Buy some more later so you can eat enough."
Xia Yuhong gave Zhu Xuefeng a blank look.
"It's as if no one cares about these buns like yours. Come on, little sister, ignore your brother. Last time he said he would take you to a restaurant if he had an opportunity. It's already May, so It’s not fulfilled.”
The younger sister also looked at the elder brother subconsciously, it’s true, she said it last time when she visited Changdian, it’s been a few months.
"Your brother, he is just such a person. He always talks nice, let's just ignore him."
Zhu Xuefeng had a shy face, smiled, started the jeep, The jeep headed west and soon arrived at Xisi. Today is the weekend and there are not many people queuing up.
“Second brother, you go queue up to buy steamed buns, and I’ll chat with your sister Xia for a while.”
“You know what we are going to do today, right?”
Zhu Xuefeng also had nothing to say, which made Xia Yuhong roll his eyes. "My little sister has already said that you want to take them hunting. I also want to take a look. Otherwise, I won't be able to find you. I have hunted in the north. I am lucky to be able to bring unexpected surprises to hunting. But it’s super good.”
Zhu Xuefeng was quite surprised. Xia Yuhong had never heard of hunting skills. He was just an ordinary person and had never heard of handling a shotgun. How could he still do it? Knowing how to hunt, I couldn’t help but ask curiously.
"You know how to hunt? Have you ever used a shotgun?"
Xia Yuhong replied carelessly. "I've never used a shotgun, but I don't use a gun when hunting. I don't think so. You've heard of silly roe deer. I caught a silly roe deer injured after falling on the ice."
"There's also a silly roe deer. The roe deer not only didn’t run away when it saw me, but even came close to sniff me and was caught alive by me. How about it? It’s amazing.”
“Everyone said I was lucky and could bring good luck to hunting. So as long as I am willing, they are willing to take me hunting. They said that as long as they take me, they will get more than usual every time. I can tell you, the silly roe deer tastes great."
Xia Yuhong squinted. Xiao Yan, chattering endlessly about his hunting experience in the Northeast. After all, he followed others, but he was really lucky and harvested two silly roe deer.
This silly roe deer is not afraid of people and is very curious. Even if he is scared away, he will come back to check on the hunter after a while. Otherwise, why would he be called a silly roe deer.
Zhu Xuefeng knew Xia Yuhong’s background and couldn’t help but remind him.
"You are indeed very lucky, but the place we are going to this time is Qianshan. There are wolves in the mountains. I have seen this with my own eyes. It is very dangerous. Otherwise, when we get there, you can find some wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain and wait for us to come back. Let’s do it.”
"That's not possible. What's the point of digging wild vegetables alone? Besides, the little girl can go into the mountains, but I'm older than her."
"Sister Xia, I'm very powerful. "My brother also taught me to climb trees. If it is really dangerous, I can climb trees. Sister, can you climb trees?"
The little girl was smiling behind her, not afraid at all, listening to Xia Yuhong. She made a comparison and couldn't help but interrupt.
"I also climbed it when I was a child, but I haven't climbed it for many years now. Don't worry, my sister will protect you if there is real danger."
Zhu Xuefeng is a little speechless, the wolves don't care much about him now. A big threat, but Xia Yuhong has no ability to protect herself, so it is still worth worrying about.
The younger brothers and sisters have been practicing for so long. Although they cannot defeat the wolf independently, as long as they can hold on for a while, they can help. Xia Yuhong has no ability to protect herself, so she can only follow herself when the time comes.
Last time, Liang Yan and I didn't encounter a wolf pack. It's possible that the wolves have changed their territory. Since Xia Yuhong insists on following, it shouldn't be a big problem if she pays more attention.
"Okay, you can go up the mountain too, but you must follow me. Don't leave. This mountain is still dangerous."
"There must be no tigers in this mountain. There are tigers, blind bears, and wild boars in the mountains in the northeast. I can follow you. It's okay. I won't run around. You have to give me a decent job."
< br>"That's no problem. I'll give it to you as soon as I get out of the car. I'm bringing a hand crossbow and a machete behind the car. If you're lucky, you can try to catch a few pheasants with your own hands. The pheasants taste quite good. When the time comes, Let your mother taste the fruits of your victory.”
Xia Yuhong was even more interested. This is good, the pheasant tastes good.
"Well, I really have to give it a try. My target shooting results were pretty good during the last military training. Maybe I can really shoot a pheasant."
The Jeep did not stop at Niu Village. , directly followed the last route and stopped at an abandoned military camp. When the large-scale reclamation movement is launched next year, there will be nothing to fight in this place. It is really a pity. It was only decades later that I accidentally heard that a small number of wild animals were discovered. .
A few people were really lucky. They walked along the road they went into the mountains with Liang Yan last time. They didn’t encounter any wild animals. They did encounter pheasants many times. They only brought two hand crossbows. My little sister He and Xia Yuhong had one each, but it made them blind cats and dead mice.
"How about it? Although our accuracy was very poor, we got this pheasant."
Xia Yuhong was very happy. She and her younger sister were both rookies, but even so, both of them still had trouble. There is gain.
The two of them each harvested a pheasant, which made Xia Yuhong and her little sister get together and exchange their experiences happily. Zhu Xuefeng picked up the missed crossbow arrow and nuzzled at the second one, who picked up the machete knowingly. Continuing to open the road, Zhu Xuefeng followed behind.
“Brother, what do you think that is?”
The second child pointed to the two animals in the distance in front of the slope under the cliff. He was very excited. He did not recognize these animals and quickly reminded everyone in a low voice that about sixty or seventy meters away, two green sheep were leisurely foraging.
Qingyang is also called goral. It is extremely rare in the suburbs of Beijing. It has been discovered before. Because it was unknown to people in the old capital, it was called the "Western Mountain Monster". I heard Dad Niu talk about it last time, but I didn't expect it. It really does exist. This is a rare item, and the meat is extremely delicious.
Xia Yuhong was also very excited. Finally, there was a big guy. Zhu Xuefeng happened to look over and could not help but proudly pointed at the Qingyang and then at himself, which clearly meant, look, it is good luck to bring me with you.
The little girl raised her hand crossbow excitedly. Zhu Xuefeng smiled. The distance was too far, far beyond the range of the hand crossbow. He raised his hand to hold down the hand crossbow.
"It's too far to hit. With your accuracy, you still have to get close to a distance of twenty or thirty meters."
Xia Yuhong is also eager to try. This unknown animal poses Knowing that there is no danger in being a vegetarian, I pulled my little sister excitedly.
"Come on, let's touch it quietly, and then shoot one together. It's so big, one of the crossbow arrows can hit it."
The little girl nodded excitedly, and both of them Having received basic military training, I thought that it would not be too difficult to touch it. Unfortunately, it backfired. Qingyang was much more vigilant than the silly pheasant.
Qingyang suddenly raised his head and looked around. Xia Yuhong and her younger sister stopped quickly, not daring to make any more noise. The two brothers Zhu Xuefeng watched from a distance and did not come over, staying on Qingyang's alert line. outside.
Seeing nothing strange, the green sheep began to lower their heads for food again. The two began to move again. There was rustling movement again. This time the green sheep did not hesitate. The two green sheep jumped up and quickly headed towards the mountain. Escape from the cliff.
The younger sister was disappointed, but gained confidence again after seeing the direction of escape.
"Sister Xia, this monster has escaped to the cliff. Let's chase it. I don't believe it. They can still climb over this cliff."
Xia Yuhong was getting up in frustration, patting the fallen leaves. He Cao was also overjoyed when he saw the direction of escape, and quickly pulled his little sister.
“Let’s chase!”
Seeing the two of them chasing after each other, Zhu Xuefeng had no choice but to call on his second brother to join him for reinforcements. This thing was walking on flat ground on the cliff, and ordinary natural enemies encountered this situation. He was also helpless. This was Qingyang's secret to escape.
Zhu Xuefeng did not dare to let the two of them stay away from his sight. Who knew what dangers there were in this mountain.
Sure enough, the two of them were dumbfounded at the green sheep walking freely on the cliff. They had seen too much. The cliff was not only 90 degrees, but 70 degrees should be about the same. These two things were actually on the small protrusion. It's incredible to get up and take a stroll in the courtyard.
