I was a hunter in ancient times

Chapter 59 Going Down the Mountain

All along, Zhou Du has closed himself in his own world, he is afraid to come out, he is afraid that the world will look at him in a different light.

So he also sealed his emotions tightly, not daring to seep out the slightest bit, thinking that a person like him should be like a cold stone without any emotion, even when he has heartbeat and desire, he should be suppressed to death So, don't defile others, and don't disgust others.

Because he has never seen himself too clean from the bottom of his heart, he always thinks that he is a kind of dirty and smelly filth. desire.

Shenxi is like a little sun, bright and pure, when he walks towards him with his heart openly, does he like it?

like.

Love it so much.

But he didn't dare to accept it, he didn't dare to touch it, and he didn't even dare to keep his eyes on him for too long.

He was afraid that he would dirty his little sun after a long time, so he hid his dirty and dirty thoughts tightly, and let his little sun do whatever he wanted, and he didn't even dare to move his mind.

He even repeatedly hated himself in his heart when no one saw him countless times. He asked himself why he was born like this, but as long as he was a little cleaner, he would be able to pick up the sun when his little sun was running towards him. Instead of holding up a thick shield to block him tightly.

But last night his little sun told him that he didn't think he was dirty, and even let him come out, let the light shine on him, and let the light purify him.

This is something he never dared to think about before. He thought that mice are only worthy of living in the dark, but he forgot that mice can also see light. He was afraid of polluting the light, but he forgot that the light illuminates the whole earth, and it has nothing to fear. , How could he be polluted by such a small mouse.

So he began to try to reconcile with his past self, and he also began to gradually let go of the walls of his heart that he had built, step by step towards the light.

So he no longer needs to suppress his emotions and desires, as long as his little sun doesn't despise him, he can also give him the reaction he should have like a normal person.

Zhou Du gently wiped Shen Xi's red lips with his thumb, wiped off the silver residue on it for him, and slightly hooked the corners of his lips.

It's nice to have a first taste of sunshine.

It tasted much better than he imagined.

He has tasted such a beauty once, and he never wants to give it up to others. He hopes that this beauty can always belong to him alone. He hopes that his little sun will always be his own little sun. The light on the sun only shines on him all his life.

Shen Xi was about to fall from the clouds, who knew that Zhou Du's obedient voice not only didn't make him fall, but sent him directly to the sky.

The little magpie couldn't hold it anymore, it jumped out of his chest, and even his whole body seemed to be hollowed out, and his whole body slid down limply.

Zhou Du hugged him quickly, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Shen Xi slowly opened his eyelids trembling, but he didn't see the slightest panic on Zhou Du's face, he didn't even catch a trace of shyness, and he knew how red his face was at this moment without even thinking about it. How flustered.

He was the one who took the initiative first, but asked Zhou Du to do it the other way around. It's really embarrassing!

Shen Xi bit her lip, grabbed the clothes on Zhou Du's arms, stepped on her weak legs, struggled to stand up from Zhou Du's arms, stretched out her fingertips to poke Zhou Du's shoulders, and said angrily: "You bad."

"Okay, I'm bad," Zhou Du responded, turned his head to look at the pepper that they had forgotten, and asked, "Do you want more pepper?"

Shen Xi was angry and anxious: "Yes!"

"Well, I'll pick it for you." Zhou Du placed Shen Xi on the wolf fur and sat down, and pulled away to pick a cloth bag full of peppercorns for Shen Xi.

Because the two were delayed in the mountains, and they walked the farthest road, it was not too early when they left the mountain.

Liushu Village was still the same as when they went up the mountain. Several families in the village were busy with mourning, and the whole village was trapped in an atmosphere. It felt depressing before they got close.

Originally planning to find a farmer's house in the village to stay for one night, Zhou Du immediately dismissed this idea, and discussed with Shen Xi: "Let's rent a bullock cart in the village and go back to the town to find an inn to rest."

Shen Xi naturally had no objection, the two stayed in the mountains for a few days, Zhou Du was injured again, and the two of them didn't bring a change of clothes for traveling lightly, and they looked extremely embarrassed at the moment, he wished to go back to the town to find someone Where you can bathe, put on clean clothes.

When Zhou Du and Shen Xi took more than a dozen wolf skins and stepped into Liushu Village to rent an ox cart, they didn't think too much about it.

But judging from the wolf skins on their hands and the distressed bodies, it is not difficult to guess that the two came out of the mountains.

Immediately, all the mourners in the village ran out. Liushu Village was neither big nor small. There were dozens of families in the whole village, and these families had already become like family members because of their dealings with neighbors all the year round. relation.

The entire village of a family mourning has to go to pay homage, and these several mourning families include the entire village, and it is quite spectacular to run out all at once.

An elderly man walked in the front. He glanced at the wolf skins in their hands, and asked, "You two young men, did you get this wolf skin from the mountain?"

"Yeah." Zhou Du was still as indifferent in front of outsiders as ever.

Shen Xi was more talkative than Zhou Du, and he took the initiative to speak: "Yes, Uncle, we came from the county to help Liushu Village suppress wolves. We just came out of the mountains and wanted to rent a bullock cart in the village and go back to the town to hand in the task. Know who in the village has an ox cart and can give us a ride."

Shen Xi talked a lot, who knew that the old man heard the first sentence, but he didn't listen to a word of the latter, and said happily: "The ones who came to suppress the wolves, then these wolves were suppressed by you, that's great, this time Our village can rest in peace, and those children who were killed by innocent people can also rest in peace!"

With his yelling, all the people who were just watching rushed over and stared at the wolf skin in Zhoudu and Chenxi's hands.

Suddenly, as if he had discovered some miracle, a man pointed to a scar on the wolf's skin and said in surprise: "Oh, isn't this wolf the one that killed Yu Gen's family? I burned this scar with a fire stick. "

Many people in the crowd followed his gaze, and then someone echoed: "Yes, yes, I was on the side at that time, watching him get hot."

"That's right, these wolves are the wolves who came to the village to bite people."

"God, finally someone has come to clean up these goddamn animals, my son, you can go at ease."

For a while, many people in the crowd were crying and shouting the names of their close relatives.

The noise and crying surrounded Zhou Du, making Zhou Du very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, someone came to rescue them soon, it was the aunt who was going to the funeral that they met on the way up the mountain.

She squeezed in from behind the crowd with red and swollen eyes, her eyes lit up when she saw Zhou Du and Shen Xi, she stepped forward and held Shen Xi's hand affectionately: "My child, you are back."

"Yes, aunt," Shen Xi still remembered this aunt, so she didn't dodge when she came up to hold his hand, and even pulled her to show her the wolf skin they beat, "Look, this is the wolf we suppressed. Skin."

"Good boy, good boy," the aunt couldn't help but burst into tears when she saw the red and swollen eyes of the wolf fur, she took Shen Xi's hand and couldn't stop rubbing it, and said straightly: "Thank you for your hard work, auntie, thank you for the whole village. you."

For this credit, Shen Xi didn't dare to pretend to claim it. He turned his head to look at Zhou Du, and said to the aunt: "It's not my credit, it's all my husband's credit. He is a hunter and has good archery skills. Let me Hitting wolves, I am so frightened that my legs go limp when I see wolves, that’s impossible.”

The aunt wiped away her tears, and raised her eyes to look at Zhou Du who had been standing aside without speaking.She saw that although Zhou Du's face was stern, he was not impatient with them. He was holding some wolf skins in his hand, and he carried a bow and arrow on one shoulder. Cloth strips, dried blood still stuck to the clothes.

Immediately, she didn't feel that Zhou Du was an unapproachable person with a stern face, but she felt that he was honest and reliable, so she pulled Shen Xi and kept praising: "Good boy, you have found a good husband, who is strong and strong. A good person is a lucky person.”

When someone praised Zhou Du, Shen Xi was happy: "Yes, my husband is very good. Not only is he good at skills, he is a good person, and he also loves others very much."

"Not bad, not bad," the aunt looked more and more satisfied at Zhou Du, and then she saw that the two were dressed poorly and Zhou Du was injured. Knowing that they must have suffered a lot in the mountains, she hurriedly said, "Son, you Get tired, go to my house and rest your feet."

After finishing speaking, she yelled at the gathered crowd: "Everyone, don't stand here, make room so that people can come in and have a rest."

When she yelled like this, the surrounding villagers reacted and warmly invited: "Yes, yes, yes, my family has tea. Come and drink some tea at my house to warm your stomach."

"Go, go, tea warms your stomach. Where do I have two jars of good wine? Come to my house to drink to warm your stomach."

"My house has just finished work, and there are still a few clean dishes left. I'll give two of them over and add them to the table."

Everyone chattered and even arranged Zhou Du and Shen Xi's accommodation for tonight.

Zhou Du frowned slightly as he listened. The people in the Bashu area were also very hospitable. If he lived in the village tonight, the villagers would make trouble for him until very late, and he didn't know how to drink.

Just when Zhou Du was struggling to refuse, Shen Xi said: "Ma'am, we appreciate your kindness, but my husband is still wounded, I don't know anything, so I give it to you in the mountains." He bandaged it indiscriminately, and he didn't know if it was done right. He was afraid that the root cause of the disease would be lost, so he had to go to the town clinic as soon as possible to see it, so he wouldn't stay in the village. If anyone in the village has an ox cart, rent an ox cart and We can."

Shen Xi's words were impeccable, no matter how enthusiastic the villagers were, they would not dare to make fun of Zhou Du's body. After looking at each other for a while, they gave up the idea of ​​entertaining the two of them with a little regret.

A man with a cow at home stood up and said, "I have a bullock cart at home. I'll fetch it. You help us eradicate wolves. Don't talk about whether to rent it or not. It's right to send you to the town."

After that, the man went home to lead the cows.

While Zhou Du and Shen Xi were waiting for the ox cart, the aunt who had been holding Shen Xi's hand went back to the house and took out a basket of her own pickled preserved eggs and handed them to Shen Xi: "There is nothing good at home, these preserved eggs It’s not worth a lot of money, you take it with you on the road as a piece of money.”

Before Shen Xi could speak, Zhou Du bluntly refused: "No need."

"Use it, use it," the aunt did not care about Zhou Du, and directly stuffed the basket into Shenxi's arms, "You beat this wolf to death, and you have avenged the aunt. The aunt has nothing to repay you. These few Please accept the preserved eggs, and if you pass by Liushu Village later, if you are thirsty or hungry, you can come to the aunt’s house, as long as the aunt is still alive, you will definitely not be thirsty or hungry.”

While talking, the crowd who had dispersed just now came back one after another, carrying some of their own products in their hands like this aunt.

Or a small piece of bacon, or a few salted duck eggs, although they are not worth much, but this kind of heart is rare.

There was even a child about three or four years old who ran up to Zhou Du tremblingly, held up two eggs that had just been taken out of the chicken coop, and said to Zhou Du in a childlike voice: "Uncle, thank you, egg , to make up for you."

Faced with this situation, no matter how indifferent Zhou Du was, he couldn't help feeling warm in his heart at this moment. He bent slightly to take the egg from the child's hand, and rubbed the child's head with only a little fluff.

Shen Xi's gaze paused for a moment on the child's head, and then retracted as if nothing had happened.
