Husband in limbo

The two set off quietly with their tools.

On the way to the hole, Yu Wenqing considered in his heart the feasibility of opening a hole on the west wall of the cold palace and coming here directly, at least to avoid the possibility of being discovered when he went out. Just make a hole in the wall.

The two went there and carefully disassembled the wall, and after they got through one by one, they put the wall back together.

Yu Wenqing looked at the unsightly artificial traces that could not be seen from far away, and his heart suddenly opened up a lot.Standing there with closed eyes, slightly raised the chin, let the rising sun shine on the face, it was warm, took a deep breath, and sighed in my heart: the air is really fresh, a country without pollution is good.

Xiao Ke tilted his head and watched his master's strange movements, but seeing his master's fair face in the sun and a smile from the heart, at this moment Xiao Ke felt that his master was really good-looking, not the kind of extremely handsome Jia's beauty, but...Xiao Ke felt that he could not describe his master's good-looking, he just felt that this should be a kind of good-looking from the inside out, which makes people feel very comfortable when looking at it, not that kind of beauty. It is so exquisite that people can only look up.

Yu Wenqing's clothes today are very simple. To describe it, he used to wear scholar's robes, but now he wears Jianghu clothes. There are two differences.Speaking of this navy blue dress, he asked Xiao Ke to change it when he saw Liu Yi's clothes. It is said that Xiao Ke was not happy at the time, because it was the clothes worn by servants, but because he was the master, Xiao Ke just He could do so, but he muttered: Loyalty is harsh, loyalty is harsh.Then when Yu Wenqing promised a plate of fried rice, he immediately turned off his voice, and immediately went to do it.At that time, Yu Wenqing looked at Xiao Ke's cheerful back, rubbed his chin, and thought of a way to make Xiao Ke do things obediently in the future. To deal with foodies, he naturally used food to lure him.

Xiao Ke and the two of them were well prepared, each with a machete and a long wooden stick in his hand, which was used to scare the snakes.

Yu Wenqing and the others stood by the wall, looking at the layout of the hunting ground.What they were facing was a small hill. Although it was called small, it was compared with those big mountains in Yu Wenqing's heart. In fact, it was not small at all.The height is about 500 meters. Of course, this is not an exact number, but an estimate from his far-sighted mind.

The hill is not standing there alone like a bun, but there are some hills extending on both sides, but because the shape is integrated with the taller one, it is easy to see it as one, while the other side is flat The land is now, but because of the presence of some tall trees from time to time, they can't see the edge, and they can faintly see a river passing by in the north. Of course, the current state of the river is just a sparkling river in the sun. As for the actual situation, they don't know, but they will definitely go there if there is a chance.

Xiao Ke looked left and right, there were many trees, and he didn't know where they should go first, after all, it was such a large area, but he also knew that he couldn't make the decision, so he asked: "Master, where should we go first?"

Yu Wenqing replied simply, "Go up the mountain." Then he took the lead and walked towards the destination. The two of them walked side by side, because the grass grew lushly, a little over the knee, and of course there was a higher one, but they chose a In places where there is less grass, the road is naturally not straight. They cut grass while walking, but in order to prevent being discovered, the road they cut is not wide.

Xiao Ke opened the way with great interest, while Yu Wenqing walked carefully to see if he could find any edible wild vegetables.They really found some, which are familiar to them, the bamboo-shaped potatoes, the green vegetables fed by Shanghai Green, and a kind that Yu Wenqing has never seen before, but Xiao Ke knows it, because Xiao Ke said that he once I ate it once, but immediately wrinkled my nose to express that it was not tasty.Yu Wenqing smiled and wrote down the locations of these dishes. Although there were not many of them, there were only a dozen of each, but because they were all quite large, they were quite heavy.

So the next step is naturally to cut the grass by Xiao Ke, while Yu Wenqing pokes the weeds with long wooden sticks to see if he can find something to eat.

Yu Wenqing casually beat the taller grass around him with the long wooden stick in his hand, and found a familiar figure when he looked casually. Thinking of this timing, the things did not look like those in the previous world, but they also Can't help but wonder, "That's it?"

Hearing Yu Wenqing's voice, "Master, did you discover something again?"

"I'm not sure yet." Yu Wenqing said without looking back, and then cut down the long grass next to him, and the things he was familiar with appeared in front of his eyes. This should be.

"Should it be garlic?" Yu Wenqing whispered and began to dig.

Xiao Ke was wondering why his master dug up the soil. He didn't know which edible things were stuck in the soil, um, except purple ginger.

Looking at the things slowly revealed, Yu Wenqing already understood that he did not find the wrong thing.

Xiao Ke took what Yu Wenqing picked up, and it was as big as his fist. Although it was still stained with dirt, he didn't feel it was dirty.

"This is garlic, which is almost seasoned with ginger." Yu Wenqing looked at it. The garlic is more than ten square meters. If it is that big, he will really gain a lot.

He doesn't have a chance to dig them all out now, just cut down the grass next to them in the same way as he saw the vegetables before, so that he can take them away when he comes back.

Seeing that Xiao Ke was going to continue digging, Yu Wenqing stopped him, "Stop digging, we'll talk about it when we get back."

Xiao Ke nodded in agreement, "Master, I feel that there are a lot of food here, and we found a lot of vegetables in a short walk. It would be great if we could find meat."

Along the way, their route was tortuous, without the slightest rule to follow, but they still reached the foot of the mountain around ten o'clock.On the way, they found many edible vegetables and several fruit trees.Speaking of those fruit trees, there are apple trees, pear trees, and a jujube tree.Xiao Ke jumped up happily, but they haven't eaten fruit for a while.

Yu Wenqing found that the fruit trees had no trace of being picked, and every tree was full of fruits. After thinking about it, he knew the reason. After all, this is the royal hunting ground, and it is still relatively close to the palace. Those who can come, and those who can come naturally disdain these fruits.

To be honest, Yu Wenqing was also greedy when he saw the fruits hanging all over the branches, and then he and Xiao Ke beat a few with wooden sticks and took them down to eat on the way.

Without water, there is no such thing as cleaning, but because there is no pesticide, Yu Wenqing and Xiao Ke just wiped it with their sleeves and started chewing.

What Yu Wenqing ate was apples, and after taking the first bite, he thought to himself: Compared with the apples here, the ones I ate before are all for nothing.The taste is really good, and it is naturally ripe, and the taste is even better.

Throwing the apple core in his hand on the ground, looking at the mountain in front of him, "Xiao Ke, be careful when you leave later, we don't know if there are any carnivorous animals on this mountain."

Xiao Ke's small face became cautious, and she nodded, "I will."

The two went up the mountain like this.

Because they were very careful along the way, the journey was very peaceful, but what made Yu Wenqing depressed was that every time he could only watch the delicious meat pass by his eyes, but he was powerless against them.

The two were tired from walking, so they sat down to rest under a big tree.

Yu Wenqing wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand, "Xiao Ke, I found that the animals on this mountain are so big, the rabbit looks like a pig, and the chicken, is it normal to be so big? That's really not the case. An ostrich?"

Xiao Ke fanned himself with his hands, and heard Yu Wenqing's question, "It's normal, shouldn't chickens and rabbits be that big?"

"Really?" Yu Wenqing felt that he was out. In fact, it was mainly because Yu Wenqing used to be only responsible for eating, whether at home or in the palace, so he had no idea what animals looked like.

Thinking of the size of the rabbits and chickens, Yu Wenqing asked: "The common people just need to raise some rabbits and chickens, can't they easily eat meat? That chicken is enough for three people to eat for a day."

Xiao Ke nodded, "Yes, civilians are not capable of catching bigger prey, so they usually feed some rabbits and chickens."

After listening to Xiao Ke's words, the world is peaceful now, and people's lives are naturally better, and the animals in this world are generally very large, so meat is naturally enough, so Yu Wenqing sighed, "Xiao Ke, I understand now, you Why are you so angry when you see the food they sent?" It seems that they are not as good as ordinary people.

As soon as he heard Yu Wenqing say this, Xiao Ke became angry again, and his voice raised an octave, "Yes, yes, master. What they have done is too much. Our food is not as good as the ones in the palace. It’s a sweeping one. Fortunately, master, you can make delicious food, otherwise we will die miserably. Hmph, those bastards really did it too obviously. Now that there is so much food, even though the people in the palace eat vegetables, they still eat green vegetables. They definitely won't eat it at this time, those dishes must have been deliberately bought to insult us."

"At this time?" Yu Wenqing was not as angry as Xiao Ke. Being in the cold palace was equivalent to a death sentence with reprieve, and he didn't expect the treatment to be so good.

"That's right, autumn is the time when the prey is the most, so no one in the palace eats vegetables at this time. Only when people are deliberately punished will they be allowed to eat vegetables, and they say maliciously that the person eats grass animal."

Yu Wenqing didn't expect that vegetables would be despised like this, but can eating only meat really be acceptable?

"Xiao Ke, do nobles really only eat meat and not vegetables at all?"

Xiao Ke nodded, and took out a pear to eat, "Yes, the nobles think that vegetables are eaten by the untouchables, and meat is what noble people should eat. I heard that the chef also adds vegetables when stewing meat It is said to add color to make the broth look better, but when it comes out of the pot, the vegetables will still be picked out and thrown away.”

Yu Wenqing nodded, vegetable soup can also provide them nutrition, no wonder.

Seeing a rabbit walk by, he really wanted to get up and kill it, but after several failed attempts, he was too lazy to bother.

No, he was unwilling to eat the meat that was close to his mouth, "Xiao Ke, let's go, let's dig a trap."

"What is a trap?" Xiao Ke was pulled to stand up, but he didn't understand what Yu Wenqing said.

"Things that allow us to eat meat." Yu Wenqing didn't explain too much, but quietly followed a rabbit to see what the other party liked to eat.

This answer is enough for Xiao Ke to go all out.

After finding a place where many rabbits were active, two people started digging, and finally they dug a pit with a diameter of about one meter and a depth of about half a meter.They built it up with thin branches, then sprinkled it with grass, and then ran to the side of a pile of grass. The two of them looked carefully, and the rabbit liked to eat this kind of leaves with long leaves and jagged sides.

Yu Wenqing saw the traces of digging the soil with his own eyes, and thought about the things that rabbits like to eat.Said to Xiao Ke, "Dig."

Xiao Ke understood that this was a message that there might be something to eat, so she buried her head and started digging.

Yu Wenqing looked at the carrot in his hand that was as thick as a child's arm, um, it was a carrot, "Xiao Ke, our plan to come out is really correct." He said this very casually, without any emotional fluctuations, but Xiao Ke just felt When he arrived at his house, the master was in a very good mood.

"Master, what is this?" Xiao Ke asked suspiciously.

After Yu Wenqing said something delicious, he took the big carrot, chopped it into several pieces with a knife and threw it on the trap.

After finishing these, looking at Xiao Ke who is still studying carrots, "Are you hungry?"

Xiao Ke rubbed his stomach, "I'm hungry."

"Then let's find a place to eat. I wonder if there is a stream on this mountain?"

"Let's go find it. My hands are so dirty that I can't eat."

Yu Wenqing thought for a while, they were not very hungry anyway, and he was also very uncomfortable without water.

************************************************** ****

By the way, on the other side of the hill, there was a tall and straight figure wearing a black brocade suit and half a silver mask. His aura was so noble that one could only look up. He looked at the masked man kneeling in front of him.

The masked man with sharp eyes asked in a deep voice, "Any news?"

The masked man kneeling on one knee lowered his head and replied respectfully, with a hoarse voice: "Master, according to An Wu's report, there is no movement between the two of them."

The masked man pondered for a moment, then said in a sarcastic voice: "These two old men are very patient." Then he asked, "What progress has the people sent to them made?"

"Those two people are very vigilant, and they don't really trust Mu Ya and Lingfeng, but Mu Ya used a trick to block the knife, which made the surname Liang believe it a little bit."

The masked man didn't say anything after hearing this, and was silent for a moment.

"You go down first, tell An Wu to keep an eye on him."

The man cupped his fists, "Yes, Master." The next moment he disappeared in place.The masked man also used his lightness kung fu to leave, but he heard an unexpected voice on the way.

Talk about the two masters and servants who were looking for Xiaoxi.

It didn't take long for the two of them to find a small stream with gurgling water flowing through it, but the stream was really small. The two of them washed their hands and saw that the water was clean, so they drank some.

The cool and sweet stream slid down his throat, and Yu Wenqing felt that this was the real mountain spring water, which was incomparable to that Fushan spring.

Yu Wenqing looked at the big carrot at Xiao Ke's feet, "Just wash the carrot and eat it directly."

Xiao Ke went to try it immediately, while Yu Wenqing went to collect some firewood to start a fire.

Yu Wenqing picked up good firewood and saw Xiao Ke eating happily, "Don't eat too much, Xiao Ke, I will eat buns later."

Xiao Ke heard Yu Wenqing's voice, "Master, this is really delicious and sweet, half of it is for you."

Yu Wenqing took it with a smile and took a bite. It was indeed delicious, but it is not good to eat too much, it is raw after all.

Xiao Ke stuffed the carrots into the bag, and then started to bake the buns.

The two finished their lunch comfortably, because both of them had the habit of taking a nap, and felt lazy. Fortunately, the mountains were relatively shady, so they couldn't fall asleep directly.

Yu Wenqing thought that they had found so much food, and only two cloth bags couldn't hold much, so he took advantage of this moment to think about whether he could turn it into a basket.

Before he encountered a kind of branch that was quite flexible, so he took Xiao Ke to cut the branch.What he didn't know was that when he was pulling Xiao Ke to find a branch, a figure suddenly appeared by the originally empty stream, it was the man with the silver mask.The man looked at the two who left, doubts flashed in his eyes, and the next moment he understood.

He walked to the bag that Yu Wenqing had forgotten to take. He had seen the two of them eating unfamiliar food before, so he flipped through and took one in his hand. He really didn't recognize the white dumpling, doubts flashed in his eyes, and he took it again. Half of the carrot dodges away.

When Yu Wenqing came under the tree, he felt that this tree was very similar to a willow tree, with drooping branches, some of which fell to the ground, but the leaves were not like a willow tree.

Xiao Ke wondered why the branches were cut, and was also curious about the weaving things that the master flipped through with his fingers.

The things Yu Wenqing compiled were crooked and ugly, and he didn't ask for them, as long as they could be used.By the way, I also made one for Xiaoke.

At this time, Xiao Ke walked around because it was too boring to sit on the side with nothing to do. Yu Wenqing also knew that the other party was an active person, so he just told him not to go far, and just walked around. be safe.

After Yu Wenqing's two baskets were compiled, Xiao Ke also came back at this time, still holding something in his hand, and when he saw that Yu Wenqing's things had been compiled, he ran over immediately, "Master, what are you doing?" Well, what's going on now?"

"Carry the basket at this time, try it on your back." He said and put the relatively small backpack on his back.He cut the straps out of his own cloth bag. It is said that he did it halfway before realizing that two people had forgotten the cloth bag by the stream, but when he went back to pick it up, he didn’t find anything missing.

Xiao Ke tried it, and said happily: "This is so convenient."

Yu Wenqing also picked up his own pannier, at this moment Xiao Ke said: "Master, I found a lot of eggs over there, let's pick them up."

Yu Wenqing was very happy when he heard that eggs are very good things.

He followed Xiao Ke there, and it was obvious that he saw a nest made of weeds, with more than ten eggs in it, and each of them was very big.Like a little ball.

When Yu Wenqing thought about the size of those chickens, he didn't worry about why the eggs were so big.

He held the eggs up to the light and found that they were all fertilized. Then he found that Xiao Ke was picking up eggs scattered in the grass, so he picked them up to have a look, and he found that they were all unfertilized.

The two of Yu Wenqing didn't directly take away the other's litters, they took all the unfertilized ones away, and only took four of the fertilized ones.

Xiao Ke didn't ask why the eggs were left, they all knew the rules not to take all the eggs.

The two went to the place where they made the trap with their back baskets on their backs. They picked the vegetables they encountered along the way and put them in the cloth bags first.

When they got there, they saw that the trap was broken, and then they saw two rabbits staying in the trap obediently.

"Rabbit, rabbit! Master, you are too powerful!" Xiao Ke was unparalleled in excitement.

Yu Wenqing was speechless to these two rabbits who stayed safely in the trap. Don't rabbits know how to dig holes? Why don't they look like they are going to escape at all, are they a couple?Are you talking about love?Yu Wenqing was embarrassed by his own thoughts, although he found that the two were really a male and a female.

Yu Wenqing and Xiao Ke worked together to tie up the two rabbits, and then planned to go back first. Their storage tools were limited, and eleven eggs almost filled the two baskets.The two rabbits weigh about 30 kilograms, and it is very difficult for them to carry them.When they encountered wild vegetables on the road, they also put some wild vegetables in the back basket, and put them under the back basket to store eggs.

After returning, the two locked the rabbits in the storage room without untying them, and then hurriedly went to the hunting ground again.They tied up the green vegetables they found along the way and put them away. They went up the mountain and carried two baskets of carrots down the mountain. By the way, they fixed the trap again. The two of them also increased the width of the trap.

After going back to put their things away, both of them felt tired and paralyzed.But they were very happy to see the harvest. On the way back, they accidentally found a small piece of ginger field, and the harvest was quite rich.
