I was a hunter in ancient times

The ox cart drove slowly towards Taoyuan Village, and it was dark halfway through. The oil-paper lantern Zhou Du bought came in handy, and they entered Taoyuan Village with the lanterns on.

Taoyuan Village, which was supposed to be peaceful, is now brightly lit.

Villagers holding pine cone torches stood everywhere in the field, illuminating the whole Taoyuan Village brightly.

Zhou Du and Shen Xi looked at each other, neither of them understood what happened.

The ox cart stopped at Zhou Du's house, unloaded the goods, Shenxi paid the money for the little brother who drove the ox cart, and asked a nearby villager without delay.

After Zhou Du packed up the pile of miscellaneous things he bought and lit the whole house with oil lamps, Shen Xi brought a villager over.

"What?" Zhou Du put away the last oil lamp in his hand, turned around and asked.

The farmer next to Shen Xi was the first to explain: "Isn't it about to enter the autumn harvest? The wild boars in the mountains have started to go down the mountain to grab food. A few days ago, the potatoes grown in Wu's and Li's fields were all picked up by wild boars. The big guys were afraid that the wild boar would come and harm the crops, so they organized themselves and sent people to guard them day and night."

Zhou Du understood.

The man held up the torch and said to Zhou Du: "Thank you for coming up with the idea of ​​using this pine cone as a torch, which saved the village a lot of money. I'm here to thank you on behalf of the village."

Zhou Du retorted: "No need."

It was not his idea to use pine cones as torches. He had seen others do it before.

Zhou Du's indifferent attitude made the man a little at a loss.

Shen Xi immediately said: "Brother Zhang Jin, Zhou Du's personality is just like this, he has no malicious intentions, so don't worry about it."

After finishing speaking, he changed the subject again and changed the subject: "Brother Zhang Jin, didn't you say that you came to see Zhou Du for something, let's talk now."

"Oh," being interrupted by Shen Xi, Zhang Jin came back to his senses and said, "It's like this, the big guy thinks it's not a problem to keep guarding like this every day, besides, this wild boar has gone down the mountain this year, if we don't solve it, we will have to deal with it next year." Going down the mountain, we peasants rely on the land to eat, so toss it year after year, when will it be the end."

Hearing this, Zhou Du knew his purpose of coming to find him, but he didn't interrupt him.

"Everyone in the village knows that you are a hunter. You have hunted wild boars and goats before, so I want to ask you for help," Zhang Jin said a lot, but Zhou Du didn't see any reaction. He softened a lot, "Don't worry, you are now settled in our Taoyuan Village, and you can be regarded as a member of our Taoyuan Village. People in the village will not treat you badly, and there will be thank you afterwards. you."

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Du with a little anxiety.

There was still no expression on Zhou Du's face, he just hummed lightly.

Zhang Jin was surprised, what does this mean?

Before he could ask, Shen Xi tugged at his sleeve: "Brother Zhang Jin, Zhou Du agreed."

Zhang Jin was in a daze: "Agree with...?"

After talking for so long, Zhou Du didn't even have an attitude. He thought Zhou Du would not agree. After all, what he was going to face was not a wild boar, but a herd of wild boars. Many old hunters in other villages were shocked when they heard it. Fear, let alone Zhou Du.

"Yes," Shen Xi nodded and smiled, "Zhou Du's personality is a bit cold, but he is a very nice person."

"Then I'm counting on you," Zhang Jin nodded in agreement, and smiled very honestly at Zhou Du: "Thank you, you are so kind."

Zhou Du raised his eyebrows, is this considered a good person?

Pursing his lips, he said bluntly, "You're welcome, I just see you guys are so stupid, don't let the wild boars not scare them away, but burn the crops..."

Before Zhou Du finished speaking, Shen Xi directly covered Zhou Du's lips with his hands, turned around and said to Zhang Jin: "Brother Zhang Jin, you have nothing to do here, go back and look at the crops."

Zhang Jin was confused by Zhou Du's words, and he still couldn't turn his head around. Hearing Shen Xi's words, he thought that he had been away from the field for a long time. If the wild boar went down the mountain, the crops in the field would be preserved. Yes, and went back with the torch again.

Zhou Du felt the warm palm attached to his lips, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Shen Xi waited until Zhang Jin walked away, then came back to his senses, and blinked at Zhou Du.

The red mole on the end of his eye also danced along with it, so beautiful that he couldn't move his eyes away.

"You said that on purpose just now," Shen Xi looked at Zhou Du and affirmed, and then asked as if he had noticed something, "Is it true that whenever someone shows you good things, you will say something bad If you don’t, push them far away, make people hate you and stay away from you.”

"Why don't you talk anymore." Shen Xi kept looking into Zhou Du's eyes, but he didn't see his answer, so he asked again.

Zhou Du's gaze moved down, and Shen Xi also moved down.

Only then did he realize that his palm was still covering Zhou Du's lips, and his cheeks burned instantly. He quickly put down his hand and apologized, "I'm sorry, I... I didn't mean it."

Zhou Du ignored him, turned around and was about to go back to the house.

Shen Xi asked again behind his back: "Did I hit the mark just now?"

"No," Zhou Du stopped, and said indifferently, "You think too much."

Shen Xi opened his mouth, wanting to say something else.

"Also," Zhou Du said again, "You didn't wash your hands just now."

Shen Xi stretched out his palm and took a look. Sure enough, there was still a bit of dust left by moving things on his hand. How could he remember anything else now, and he froze in place as if struck by lightning.

"I, me, me..." Shen Xi stammered so much that he didn't know what to say, why did he touch Zhou Du's impeccable face with his little dirty hands? !

Zhou Du took a lantern from the house and handed it to Shen Xi: "You should go back."

Shen Xi took the lantern in a daze, looked up and saw the faint mark on Zhou Du's lips, thought for a while, took out a handkerchief from his bosom, stood on tiptoe, and carefully wiped it clean for Zhou Du.

"I'll pick up my things tomorrow," Shen Xi said after cleaning up for Zhou Du and ran away, "And I will definitely remember to wash my hands next time!"

And next time?

Zhou Du touched the lip that Shen Xi had just touched with his fingertips, and closed his eyes weakly.

After agreeing to the affairs of the villagers of Taoyuan Village, Zhou Du didn't shy away from it, and spent the next few days wandering around Lushan Mountain with bean bags, looking for pigs.

Wild boars, a herd animal, will leave traces of pigs in the area they have moved, or footprints or feces, or traces after gnawing, and you can touch them by chasing these traces.

It may be because of the rain in the past few days, the pig tracks were washed away by the rain, and the situation of wild boars descending the mountain has not reappeared these days, and it is difficult for Zhou Du to find them for a while.

We just have to wait for them to reappear.

Zhou Du couldn't find any wild boars around Fen Mountain, so he went to the deep forest and lake where the wild boars were hunted last time. He wasn't sure if it was the same group of wild boars, so he wanted to go and verify.

I don't know if they were frightened by the hunting by the lake last time. Zhou Du searched around the lake but couldn't find any new traces of pigs, so he had to stop and go back.

"Quack~quack~quack..."

Zhou Du was about to leave when there was a rough and unpleasant cry, which was mixed with a little bit of joy.

Zhou Du paused as he was about to leave.

Tired of eating pheasant and hare, it's not bad to change the taste occasionally.

The bow and arrow that had been carried on his back silently reached his hands, and the arrows followed closely behind and were ready.

There were a lot of weeds growing near the lake, Zhou Du couldn't quite see where the wild ducks were, so he could only listen to the sounds.

He concentrated and listened.

The little bean bun at his feet seemed to have noticed something, and his small body sneaked into the weeds, touched the place where the wild ducks nested, and let out a wolf howl in a childish voice: "Wow!"

The wild ducks in the grass were frightened by the sudden sound, and hurriedly flapped their wings and flew out of the grass.

As soon as they appeared, they were locked on by Zhou Du, and the three arrows in his hand fired consecutively like afterimages, and knocked down three wild ducks accurately.

"Dong dong dong."

Three wild ducks fell into the water, with the sound of splashing water.

The other wild ducks had already flown away at this instant, Zhou Du put away his bow and arrow, looked at the three wild ducks with his arrows in the lake, and fell silent.

"Bean buns." Zhou Du called out to the wolf cubs.

The wolf cub came out of the grass, licked his tongue and looked at Zhou Du.

"You've done a good job, you'll take care of it." Zhou Du was not confused by its movements, walked to the edge of the lake, and kicked it into the lake.

"Aww." The wolf cub who was suddenly kicked into the lake had a lot of water poured into its mouth, and choked several times when it came out of the water before shaking off the water droplets on its body.

Seeing that it didn't understand what he meant, Zhou Du raised his foot to kick it again.

This time the bean bag didn't let him succeed, and with a howl, before Zhoudu's toes touched it, it flew into the water and swam to the place where the three ducks shot down.

Then he took a duck in his mouth and swam back to the shore with great difficulty.

Zhou Du looked at the lost and recovered arrow, bowed and rubbed Doubao's small round head in satisfaction: "Not bad."

Bean Bao was praised, and the whole wolf was excited. After recovering a little bit of strength, it brought the remaining two wild ducks back to the shore, sat on the ground wet and wagged its tail, waiting for Zhoudu's reward.

"Going home." Zhou Du put away the arrows, lifted the wild duck, glanced at him, and left.

Doubao had no choice but to shake off the water droplets on his body, kicking his short legs to follow Zhoudu's pace.

When I went out, the bean bag with soft and shiny hair came home and turned into a wolf in the water, covered with dust and grass.

Standing at the gate of Zhou Du's house waiting for them, Shen Xi's eyes widened when he saw the bean bag: "What's wrong with it?"

Zhou Du looked back at the pitiful bean bun, put down the wild duck in his hand, and said without blinking, "It fell into the water."

"Oh~" Seeing that Zhou Du put down the duck, Shen Xi still didn't understand something, so he responded speciously, feeling that the bean buns are really pitiful, following such a master.

Zhou Du ignored him and asked, "What are you doing at my house?"

While cleaning up the grass clippings on Dou Bao's body, Shen Xi helped comb its hair, and replied: "Wait for you."

Before Zhou Du asked what he was waiting for, Shen Xi picked up the bean bag, walked to the edge of the well, fetched a basin of water, squatted down and cleaned it slowly with a handkerchief, and pursed his lips lightly.

"It's still small, it's not okay to be wet like this, it's easy to get sick, I'll clean it up first, and wipe it clean." Seeing that Zhou Du didn't continue to question, Shen Xi took the initiative to explain something, and said in a discussing tone: " You go into the house, take off your clothes and wait for me for a while, wait for me to finish cleaning it and clean my hands, and then come to help you, okay?"

Zhou Du paused, his face flushed slightly: "It's not very good."

Shen Xi asked: "What's wrong?"

Zhou Du thought for a while and said, "It's too much trouble for you."
