Chapter 2

Author: Reed by the Water

Chapter 2

The coat that Chu Ning was wearing was made from Qin's old coat. I don't know how many years he had worn it. It was shabby and old, and the cotton was caked. It was hard and uncomfortable to wear, and it was not warm yet. Now

When the wind blows, it feels like it's going to break through.

It's cold.

If she hadn't been looking for someone to stutter, she wouldn't have suffered this crime.

There was a roaring sound in his stomach. Chu Ning pulled his hair irritably and moved faster with his feet.

After entering the back mountain, she went straight to the place where she found wild yam last time. She rubbed her frozen hands and started to do it.

Due to her impatience, she accidentally broke off a thick and straight yam and threw it aside. The next ones she dug up were all small and curved ones. She was so angry that she wanted to curse.

Yams are delicious, but they are too time-consuming to dig.

After finally digging two thicker yams, Chu Ning immediately threw the hoe away to collect firewood to make a fire.

Two-quarters of an hour later, she stood up from the ground, squinted her eyes and stretched slowly.

I really want to take a nap.

My stomach is full and my body is warm. I feel really comfortable all over.

It would be even better if there was a soft big bed for a good sleep.

A faint sound reached his ears, and Chu Ning's sleepy and confused eyes immediately became clear.

She looked over and saw a gray hare grazing not far away.

Chu Ning held his breath and slowly squatted down, touched a sharp pebble from the ground, and threw it with his eyes in mind.

Whoosh——

thump.

The rabbit fell down in the withered grass.

"Haha! I finally caught you!"

Chu Ning happily rushed over and picked up the rabbit by its ears, "Well, it's not bad, it weighs three or four pounds."

This rabbit is not fat. After removing the fur and bones, it is estimated that it can have at most two kilograms of meat. She can have a full meal by herself, but there are also two little ones, Yingdi and Laidi.

Not enough to eat.

It would be nice to hunt another one.

Chu Ning bent down and spread two handfuls of dead grass at the bottom of the basket, put the hare in, then she lifted the basket and looked left and right, and finally hung it on a thick branch before nodding with satisfaction.

Taking advantage of the good luck today, I have to keep working hard.

If you can hunt another one, you can open your belly and eat it.

Well, if you don’t have rabbits, pheasants will do.

In such cold and humid weather, it would be so nice to have a bowl of hot chicken soup.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning became excited. She found a few sharp stones and held them in her hands, then tiptoed around looking for wild animals.

Not to mention, she actually discovered a colorful pheasant, but the little thing was too alert. As soon as Chu Ning showed its head, it flapped its wings and flew away.

Chu Ning became anxious and ran after it, throwing stones at the same time. Unfortunately, he didn't hit it once and it ran away in the end.

Seeing that the meat in his mouth flew away, Chu Ning was unwilling to accept it, so he decided to make another decision from the hare. He couldn't waste today's good luck.

After much deliberation, she finally decided to go down the rabbit hole.

Don’t rabbits live in groups in groups? Then just catch a group of them.

Roast them all and make jerky for later consumption.

Just do it!

Chu Ning bent down and carefully searched for the rabbit hole.

She had no experience in this area. She looked around and had no clue at all.

But maybe she was very lucky today, and she actually found him.

Thinking that there might be a rabbit family inside, Chu Ning couldn't help but get excited.

It's all meat, how can you not be excited?

She gently piled the dead branches that had not been used before in the hole in front, and stuffed a few handfuls of dead grass inside, preparing to use them to start a fire.

After carefully checking that there was no problem, she hurriedly took off the backpack, dumped the hare and dry grass on the ground, fastened it to the hole at the back, and found a big stone to hold it down.

After shaking it from side to side to make sure it was okay, I ran to the front entrance of the cave to light a fire.

She took out a fire stick and blew it on the dry weeds. The flames instantly jumped up and burned.

When the fire got a little bigger, she put out the open flame with two handfuls of earth, and then she waved her clothes to fan the air.

After a while, the thick smoke forced the rabbits out, all of them got into the basket, and then bumped around in panic, almost overturning the basket.

Hearing the noise, Chu Ning quickly got up from the ground and ran to the rear. Before he could reach the front, he pounced on the backpack and clasped it tightly.

"Haha..., hiss——"

I jumped too hastily just now and hit my chest on a rock.

Chu Ning grinned in pain.

It's not easy to eat meat.

The hares in the basket were still running rampant. Chu Ning did not dare to let go easily, so he was forced to fight with them.

You’ve already come in, but you still want to run away, there’s no way!

But it's not a problem to be so stiff all the time. The wind was strong today, and it didn't take long for the thick smoke to be blown away.

Chu Ning was a little worried. He was worried that after the smoke disappeared completely in the air, those cunning rabbits would return to their holes.

She doesn't want to do useless work.

After a while, when the rabbit became quieter, Chu Ning threw away the stone and tried to move the basket slowly, thinking about leaving the hole. However,

The ground was uneven, and the basket moved slightly, leaving a gap. Two alert little rabbits took advantage of the gap and took the opportunity to escape.

When Chu Ning was in a hurry, his brain was a little weak, and he lifted up the backpack without thinking.

She moved very quickly, almost in one breath, without even a moment's pause, but the rabbits were not slow either. The moment the basket left the ground, they rushed out and ran out in half the blink of an eye.

Chu Ning's hands reacted faster than his brain. As soon as he threw the basket on his back, he rushed forward to catch the rabbit. After a flurry of fluttering, he finally caught the bottom one.

It wasn't that it reacted slowly, but because it landed at the bottom of the basket and had no chance to escape, while all the others above it escaped.

Chu Ning pulled hard on the ears of the rabbit that was jumping around, gathered up a handful of hay and wrapped it around the rabbit. While wrapping it, he muttered, "I told you to run, I told you to run!"

Finally the rabbit in her hand turned into a big ball of grass.

I can't run away now.

Chu Ning sat down on the ground and gasped.

But she was exhausted.

The ground was wet and cold, and the mountain wind was blowing coldly on his body. It was really not suitable to stay too long. Chu Ning only sat for a while before getting up.

I looked up at the sun in the sky. It was getting late, so I had to hurry up and get the rabbit out.

Chu Ning stretched out his foot and kicked the big grass ball that was not moving, thinking about how to kill it.

Dump to death?

A bit cruel.

Stoned to death?

It doesn't seem to be any better.

Rabbit is so cute, she can't do anything to him.

Chu Ning looked at the jacket on his body with disgust, forget it, I won't eat this one, I'd better keep it in exchange for money.

Even after making the decision, she didn't hesitate, bent down to pick up the basket, threw the huge grass ball in, and then gathered some weeds to plug it to prevent it from moving around.

Naturally, she couldn't just go back like this. She came out to collect firewood. If she went back with an empty basket, she would be scolded to death by the old godly woman.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning's original good mood disappeared instantly.

With a cold face, she picked up a few dry firewood and put them randomly in the backpack. At first glance, it looked quite full, but she knew that there was no way to communicate with her, so she had to patiently fold a few thicker dry branches across the basket.

I put it on it and stopped when I felt I could handle it.

After struggling for so long, the little food she ate had already been digested, and since she was hungry for meat, she would not rush home just for half a piece of dry corn tortilla.
