Behind Qiuye Mountain, there is an endless mountain. No one knows its name. The mountain is speechless. Perhaps, no one has given it a name at all.
Ye Chuqiu took Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi out of the back mountain of Qiuye Mountain and entered the endless mountain.
The mountains and forests are quiet and quiet. When you walk into this mountain, you feel like you have entered another world.
There are snakes, beasts and insects in this mountain. Ye Chuqiu specially wore long boots because he was afraid of encountering insects again.
In fact, she came here today, of course, not to pick mushrooms. She just found a reason to come to the mountains to make some money. Later, she would directly make a wish to the system for a pack of mycelium, which was no more reliable than digging for wild mountain mycorrhizas.
Of course, you still have to pretend to dig up some dead branches and leaves and take them home with the mushrooms.
Walking all the way into the mountains, with the fresh air and no worldly worries in her ears, she seemed to become younger.
Sometimes, he picked one or two wild flowers and dug them up by the roots. Sometimes he followed Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi chasing a pheasant, running very fast.
At home, she is the head of the family and the mother, so she inevitably has to keep a straight face and act old-fashioned.
As long as she is in this mountain forest, she is herself, an unmarried "young" girl.
I don’t know how long after walking and stopping, a stream appeared in the mountain forest. Ye Chuqiu squatted down and washed his hands by the stream. Then he picked up a handful of water and washed his face. The two little tigers
He stood beside her obediently, stuck out his tongue, and licked the stream water.
At this moment, there were two more pheasants, six wild eggs, two camellias, and an orchid in the basket she put aside.
"Look again to see if there are any mushrooms, pick them and go home."
There are many people in the family, especially the few children who have followed her to escape. They have seen the world. They are no better than when they first left the country. They didn't know anything and had no experience. Now they are getting harder and harder to fool.
.
Nowadays, no matter what she does that is unreasonable, or she comes up with something that is unreasonable, she has to find a reason for it.
He stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly heard a voice. Ye Chuqiu was startled: Is there anyone else in this deep mountain and old forest?
Just as I was thinking this, I saw five or six men walking over with bows and arrows in hand, talking and laughing.
"Hey, you guys are really lucky today. We just caught a little girl, and now we see such a graceful young woman."
"Yes, when I went hunting here, I saw more beauties than when I went to rob at the foot of the mountain."
"I just want to capture her and make her our eldest brother's wife. I don't know whether he will choose this young woman or this little girl."
When several men saw Ye Chuqiu, they immediately showed lewd smiles on their faces. They started talking loudly to Ye Chuqiu as if no one else was watching.
When Ye Chuqiu heard what they said, a sneer appeared in her eyes. She noticed that one of the men was holding a little girl behind him. The little girl looked about fourteen or fifteen years old. She was wearing linen clothes and was tall.
I often work outside and my skin becomes yellow due to the sun.
However, her eyes were dark, big and bright, and even though her mouth was tied with hemp rope and her hands were tied by bandits, spiritual energy still overflowed from her body.
She is really a spirited girl, just like an elf in the mountains. She was caught by these bandits for some reason.
What made Ye Chuqiu even more unprepared was that the originally quiet mountain forest turned out to be a place for these thieves to hide their evil.
"Uh~uh~"
When she saw someone, the little girl whined, her eyes anxious, and she signaled Ye Chuqiu to run away quickly. These bandits were not easy to mess with.
Ye Chuqiu, on the other hand, was brave and unafraid for a skilled person. She put her hands behind her back and looked at the bandits intently, wondering whether she should kill them or not.
However, in the eyes of these bandits, her behavior seemed like she was scared out of her wits.
"Little lady, don't be afraid. When you get to the village, your brothers will take good care of you."
One of the men walked towards Ye Chuqiu, but after taking two steps forward, he suddenly felt a pain in his foot. It turned out that it was Xiaoliu who suddenly rushed over and took a big bite on his foot.
No one knows where Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi were hiding just now. In the mountains and forests, they showed their instincts as wild beasts. Even though they were just cubs, they still learned to hide and bite.
"ah!"
The man screamed in pain and kicked Xiao Liu away. However, a large piece of flesh had been bitten off by Xiao Liu, and he was immediately in pain.
Xiao Liu took the meat in his mouth, rolled on the ground, and ran to Ye Chuqiu, looking like he was going to devour it.
"Spit it out, spit it out quickly!"
Ye Chuqiu was a little anxious when he saw it. He didn't want to eat this meat.
Xiao Liu looked at Ye Chuqiu ignorantly, and when he saw her stern expression, he vomited it out.
Ye Chuqiu stomped the meat on the ground, "Bah, bah, bah, it's dirty. From now on, you can only bite it but not eat it. Mother will feed you!"
Ye Chuqiu stepped on the meat into the mud and crushed it to pieces. Only then did her pounding heart calm down. She lowered her head, touched Xiao Liu's head, and took out the pheasant from the basket on her back.
Put it on Xiao Liu's mouth as a reward.
"tiger?"
Everyone was shocked when they saw Xiaoliu. How could there be a tiger in this place? They looked around, afraid that a tiger was hiding nearby.
But in the end, when they saw Ye Chuqiu's affectionate attitude toward the little tiger, they instantly understood, "This little tiger was raised by this woman!"
Hearing this, these bandits wanted to retreat. How could a woman who could raise tigers be an ordinary woman? However, the bandit who was bitten by Xiao Liu refused to give up, "This woman may be lucky."
, the tigress happened to be dead, and she took the tiger cubs to raise. Wouldn't it be beautiful if we caught her and presented these two tigers to the master?"
Who doesn’t want to raise a majestic big tiger?
At this moment, these bandits not only coveted Ye Chuqiu, but also coveted her two tigers.
"I'm afraid you don't have that ability." Ye Chuqiu sneered and said, "I'm very good at martial arts, but you can't beat me. It's best not to come here to seek death."
She has already reminded them that if they insist on seeking death, then no wonder she is ruthless.
"Humph, stop talking nonsense!"
The more she said this, the more they didn't believe it, thinking that she was just a tough-tempered person. After all, how could anyone praise themselves for being so powerful?
But they still felt a little wary, so they all rushed towards Ye Chuqiu. Ye Chuqiu was not afraid. She pulled out a stick from nowhere and knocked them to the ground in two or two strokes.
Should we beat them to death?
Ye Chuqiu was still a little hesitant. Although she had experienced so many things, she was always reluctant to kill people.
So she turned her attention to the little girl beside her. She walked over and used a dagger to separate the rope from the girl's hands and mouth.
As soon as the little girl could speak, she immediately said: "They are all bandits from Huangtian Village. They often go down the mountain to rob, and they also rape women."
"Yes, we are from Huangtian Village. If you dare to kill us, when our master finds out, he will definitely not let you go. He will lead people to kill all the men in your village and rob all the women in your village.
." A bandit heard this and said viciously.
"Do you know which village I am from?"
Ye Chuqiu asked in a low voice, with a hint of murderous intent in her tone, but these bandits didn't hear it at all, they just wanted to scare her, "Huh, there are only a few villages nearby, not Wujiagou.
It's Huangjiazhai. In short, if something happens to us, our boss will naturally bring people to visit one village after another!"
"very good."
When Ye Chuqiu heard this, he no longer hesitated, took a stick, and smashed their throat bones one by one!
The little girl screamed in fright, but soon she regained her composure and said to Ye Chuqiu: "There is a cliff next to it. You can throw them down."
"No, just let them stay here. There is a stream here and there are tracks of wild beasts next to it. It won't be long before they are eaten up by wild beasts."
Ye Chuqiu said something and took out a knife, "Here, you come and cut them a few times, let them bleed some, and attract more wild animals."
Although the little girl was scared, she still walked over, picked up the knife, and did as Ye Chuqiu said. She was scared at first, but in the end, her expression became a little fierce and her movements became more and more fluent.
, when everything was done, the little girl held the knife and returned the knife to Ye Chuqiu with trembling hands.
"Where do you live? How did you come to this mountain?"
Ye Chuqiu took the knife handed over by the little girl and asked.
"I..." The little girl trembled when she heard Ye Chuqiu speak, obviously a little scared.
"What? Are you afraid of me?" Ye Chuqiu raised his chin slightly.
"No, you saved me, you are a good person." The little girl said.
"You haven't answered my question yet. What's your name? Why did a person come to this deep mountain and old forest? There are wild beasts here. Are you willing to die?" Afterwards, Ye Chuqiu's tone was a bit stern.
.
"My name is Wantong." The little girl replied timidly.
"Wantong, what a nice name." Ye Chuqiu smacked the name, "This seems to be the name of a Chinese medicine."
"Well, my father is a doctor." The little girl still looked timid, "I went up the mountain to collect medicine today."
"What about your medicinal materials?" Ye Chuqiu asked.
"Over there." The little girl was afraid that Ye Chuqiu wouldn't believe it, so she pointed to the way the bandits came and said.
"I'll go get it with you."
Ye Chuqiu said something and called out to Xiaoliu and Xiaoqi. He followed the little girl and walked there. After walking for about half an hour, he came to the place where the little girl said he was. Sure enough, he found the little girl's basket and hoe.
.
"Why don't your adults come to collect herbs?" Ye Chuqiu asked again.
"My father is sick." The little girl lowered her head and looked at her toes. After a while, she mustered up the courage to raise her head again, "Besides, I am an adult too."
Ye Chuqiu smiled: "How old are you?"
"Sixteen." The little girl lowered her head and replied.
"Okay, where do you live? I'll take you back."
After Ye Chuqiu said this, he couldn't help but picked up her backpack and wanted to take her home.
The little girl was afraid of her and wanted to go home by herself, but she didn't dare to speak. She could only follow Ye Chuqiu and silently walked down the mountain.
