Chapter 12 Mountain Road

Ye Feiyang was woken up by Ji Xiang's cries, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of big hands stretched out from above.Uncle Qi lifted Jixiang up and shook him, then reached into his clothes, lowered his head and said to Ye Feiyang who was sitting up, "It's wet in the urine, I boiled hot water, so I might as well take a bath for him."

"Alright." Ye Feiyang rolled over and got out of bed, took the auspiciousness from Uncle Qi's hand, coaxed it softly, and watched Uncle Qi take out a small wooden basin from a corner of the room, which he specially made for auspiciousness. It is said that Uncle Qi just picked up auspiciousness When he was young, he tried to wash Jixiang with the big wooden bucket he used for bathing, but almost drowned him. The next day, he went down the mountain to get a small wooden basin for Jixiang. He said it was a small wooden basin, but in fact It’s not too small, it’s almost as deep as your knees, so it’s no problem to put Jixiang in it and turn around from side to side.Uncle Qi took the wooden basin to the stream outside to wash it, and then brought it back into the house. Ye Feiyang watched him go in and out with the wooden basin easily, secretly ashamed, remembering the last time, He and Uncle Qi tried to be brave and insisted on helping Jixiang wash the wooden basin, but he was so tired that he was out of breath just by taking it to the stream. This wooden basin is not comparable to the wooden basins that cut corners in modern society, and the wooden basins used are all solid. Good wood, coupled with such a large volume, is very heavy to hold in the hand.

Jixiang was lying in Ye Feiyang's arms, tilting his head to see Uncle Qi hurrying out, but he was not making a fuss, just humming twice from time to time, reminding the adults that he was still uncomfortable.Seeing Uncle Qi turn around to carry hot water again, Ye Feiyang was not idle, he patted Jixiang and coaxed: "Jixiang is good, lie down for a while, I will get you clothes." Put Jixiang on the bed, He walked quickly to the door, shook the few clothes that Ji Xiang had chosen to wear now, put them in his arms, glanced at the sky, felt that it was still early, went into the room and put the clothes on the bed, Moved the wooden basin to the side of the bed, and as soon as it was done, Uncle Qi came in with hot water, poured a bucket of water, filling most of the wooden basin, Uncle Qi put the wooden bucket aside, got up Close the door tightly: "There is still some water boiling in the pot, add hot water later when it cools down."

Ye Feiyang responded, stretched out his hand to check the temperature of the water, it was just right, then got up and fished out the auspiciousness in the quilt, unbuttoned the little clothes skillfully, revealing the white and tender body inside, opened the diaper to see, except for the wet urine Yes, there are still some yellow cakes, still very thin, but the color is lighter than before, which is a sign of gradual improvement.Ye Feiyang was in a good mood, smiled and picked up Ji Xiang who was naked, and slowly put it in the wooden basin, first the little feet, watching the little guy shake the little feet with a smile, thinking that the temperature is not too high, Ye Feiyang just Put your little one in with confidence.

According to the parenting scriptures, most babies like the feeling of being in the water, so the little guy has to dance like this every time he takes a bath?Do you have to make Ye Feiyang and Uncle Qi wet to be satisfied?Uncle Qi was in the direction of Jixiang's head, and gently supported Jixiang's soft back with his hands under the water, while Ye Feiyang carefully scrubbed Jixiang with a cotton kerchief. The smooth and tender skin was injured, and Ji Xiang, who was carefully served by the two adults, was obviously in a good mood, as he kept patting the water and giggling.Knowing that Jixiang likes to take a bath, Ye Feiyang plays with him slowly every time while taking a bath. It is always enough to add hot water twice, and today is no exception. After taking a long time to take a bath, it will be getting late .

Ye Feiyang was thinking about going to the mountain with Uncle Qi, and his hands were a little more eager than usual. He didn't notice that a belt was caught in Jixiang's claws, and he almost pulled Jixiang when he was putting on the clothes. The guy pursed his lips and yelled a few times in protest. Ye Feiyang quickly pinched his little paws and looked carefully, making sure that there was nothing wrong, then carefully dressed him again, and put on the outside of the underwear again. Make a thicker layer, wrap the cloak on the outside, and wrap the little guy like a meat dumpling according to the method Liu Shu taught him before. He also took out his two little hands.Ye Feiyang predicted well. When he first started to put on clothes, Ji Xiang was obedient and giggled at Ye Feiyang. When the cloak was put on, the little guy's eyebrows frowned, and his calves kicked wildly. It's a pity that people speak lightly, and that little resistance is really nothing in Ye Feiyang's eyes, so in the end it was wrapped up according to Ye Feiyang's wishes.

Uncle Qi came back after pouring the water, went to the bed and hugged Ji Xiang, seeing the little guy seemed a little unhappy, he shook his arms to coax him, saw Ye Feiyang was still standing beside him, and said: "Feiyang, take the wet I've changed my clothes and I'm ready to go out." Ye Feiyang looked down at the clothes on his body that were wet by Ji Xiang, mainly the large area of ​​his chest, who told him to squat next to Ji Xiang's little hand, almost all the water splashed by the little guy It was on him. In comparison, Uncle Qi only got a little wet on his sleeves and hem, so it didn't matter if he changed it or not.Ye Feiyang thought for a while, then shook his head: "There's no need to change it, the weather is still hot, we'll finish it later, let's go, or it will be dark when we come back."

Seeing Ye Feiyang's impatient appearance, Uncle Qi smiled generously: "Well, I will hold Jixiang first, and I will give it to you when your clothes are dry." Ye Feiyang naturally nodded in agreement.Uncle Qi took two more belts from the cabinet. The belts were very thick. When you pinch them, you can feel something in the middle. Uncle Qi took one for Ye Feiyang to tie, and tied the other under Jixiang's neck. Ye Feiyang heard from Uncle Qi that the belt contained in it can repel insects and snakes, and it is a necessary medicine for walking in the mountains and forests.Then he took out a shorter rope and tied up his trouser legs, Ye Feiyang followed suit.

When he was about to leave the house, Uncle Qi seemed to think of something, paused, and asked Ye Feiyang to bring a bow and arrow and quiver.Ye Feiyang was in high spirits, the bow and arrow were not very heavy, and his body was dark. Ye Feiyang tried to draw the bow before, but he could only pull it about ten centimeters away, and he couldn't pull it anymore. Uncle Qi, according to Ye Feiyang's visual inspection , it can be pulled at least twenty centimeters apart...

Ye Feiyang carried the quiver on his back, put the bow and arrow on his shoulders around his arms, and followed Uncle Qi step by step, but what he thought about was Uncle Qi's heroic posture of shooting his prey with his bow and arrow, and a look of admiration appeared on his face.Uncle Qi supported Jixiang's waist with one hand and his feet with the other, letting him stand upright in his arms. The little guy blinked his dark eyes, turned his little head to look around, opened his little mouth half-open, and kept his little paws from time to time. Waving around, obviously very happy.

Knowing Ye Feiyang's curiosity, Uncle Qi said as he walked, "This mountain seems to be full of trees, but there is still a small road. Look carefully, this road is what I walk every day. It is a bit different from the surrounding areas." Feiyang immediately looked seriously. Although it was the end of summer, there were many dead leaves under his feet, covered by weeds. As he walked up the mountain, there were more and more dead leaves. But if he looked carefully, there was indeed a The dead grass on the road was trampled down, presumably because Uncle Qi walked every day, the road really needs people to come out.

It was evening at this moment, when the birds and beasts returned to their nests, the crisp birdsong in the forest became more and more dense, and the chirping seemed to tell the hard work of the day, and small figures shuttled among the branches and leaves in the shade of the trees. Some of them are brightly colored, some are gray and inconspicuous, but their bodies and movements are all light and quick.Ye Feiyang didn't find it noisy, on the contrary, he found it quite interesting. This is a completely different bustle from the modern city. Just when Ye Feiyang raised his neck to look for the silhouettes of various birds, a fluffy gray head suddenly appeared in front of him. The small round eyes and the small erected ears are all cute.Ye Feiyang couldn't help but praised: "Uncle Qi, is that a squirrel? It's so cute!" When I saw it on TV before, I thought this kind of clever and dexterous little animal was very cute. Now that I see it with my own eyes, I really want to touch it. ah.

Uncle Qi followed Ye Feiyang's gaze, but unexpectedly, when the squirrel saw Uncle Qi turn his head, his little head immediately retracted, and he was nowhere to be seen again.Ye Feiyang suddenly felt a little pity, the squirrel was obviously not afraid when he first saw him, why did he run away when he saw Uncle Qi?

Uncle Qi said: "Probably because I often pass by with corpses and let them see them. Most animals are very smart."

Ye Feiyang nodded, animals living in nature are naturally alert, unlike those in zoos, who have almost lost their instincts, no different from domestic cats and dogs.When Jixiang in Uncle Qi's arms heard what the adults said, Yiyi also yelled. Ye Feiyang stretched out his hand to tease him, pinching his tender face: "Do you know what we are talking about? Follow Yiyi too." Ji Xiang giggled and reached out to grab Ye Feiyang's hand.

Uncle Qi was not walking fast, and he was always paying attention to the movement around him. Years of hunting experience and intuition told him that recently a big guy came from the nearby mountains and forests. He is now bringing Ye Feiyang and Jixiang with him. It would be dangerous if they meet. In fact, he shouldn't have brought them out, but he couldn't stand Ye Feiyang's begging appearance. Young people are impatient. It is really difficult for him to stay at home all day to bring auspiciousness, but seeing this big and small Looking elated, Uncle Qi felt that it was right to bring them out.

Ye Feiyang followed Uncle Qi along the unobvious road for a while, and Uncle Qi stopped, turned around and handed Jixiang over: "There is a trap near here, I'll go see if there are any prey." Ye Feiyang put down With the bow and arrow on his shoulder, he took Ji Xiang, and was about to follow up to see it, but was blocked by Uncle Qi. Thinking of Ji Xiang in his arms, Ye Feiyang nodded and stood where he was, although Ji Xiang couldn't see clearly at the moment Things, but his sense of smell is still very sensitive, it would be bad if he could smell the blood or rot of animals.

Uncle Qi walked another five or six meters to the side, stopped at the edge of a big tree, squatted down and fiddled with the dead leaves, and came back soon, shaking his head at Ye Feiyang: "There is no prey here. .”

Ye Feiyang didn't feel too disappointed, he came here to "release the wind", so he will look around first, and the specific investigation will take a while before his body fully recovers, so there is no rush.Uncle Qi led them in another direction, and told Ye Feiyang some simple identification methods along the way.It is not feasible to make marks in the mountains, but only rely on the trees to identify them. Although the trees are similar at first glance, but after a long time, if you look carefully, you will find that the trees are also different. Ye Feiyang obviously hasn't cultivated such sharp eyes. When Uncle Qi told him, he felt that the tree was really unique, but after walking a short distance, he found that many of the trees he saw had the same The characteristics of the tree just now... This is really a very speechless discovery.
