reborn little fish

Chapter 8 Traveling... the mountains?

The wolf is very fierce, but I didn't stand stupidly to be bitten by him.I tried my best to dodge to the side, but unfortunately I was still a step too late.The sharp teeth of the wolf bit my shoulder firmly, I clenched my teeth so as not to howl.But he didn't have any strength to resist anymore.I thought, if it weren't for Jiang Yulang, I'm afraid I would really be buried in the belly of a wolf.At the last glance, I only saw Jiang Yulang rushing towards him with red eyes, the dagger in his hand slashed fiercely across the wolf's neck, and after that... there was darkness.

Hot, so hot, where am I, why is it so hot?Someone help me...it's so hot...

When I woke up again, I vaguely found that it seemed to be in the room between Jiang Yulang and me.The next moment, a face appeared in sight.

"Little Yu'er, you're finally awake." Jiang Yulang looked at me happily, but he couldn't hide the tiredness on his face.

"It's fine when you wake up, and you'll be fine when you wake up." Wan Chunliu's voice sounded.I was slightly relieved, old man Wan's medical skills are still good, not to mention Jiang Yulang, I think I have nothing to do, the rest is recuperation.

"Water." I felt like my throat was going to smoke.

After hearing this, Jiang Yulang immediately poured me a glass of water, then gently lifted me up and fed me to drink.

"How many days have I slept?" After being moisturized by water, my throat has improved a lot, but it is still a little hoarse.

"You have been in a coma for four days. If you don't wake up, I will shake you awake." Jiang Yulang said pretending to be relaxed, but I still saw the indelible worry on his face.

I took his hand with some guilt: "I'm sorry for making you worry."

Jiang Yulang shook his head lightly: "It's not just me, Master Wan and Aunt Tu have all visited you, and they went to rest after listening to Master Wan saying that you are fine... Boss Du, he also came here." Hesitating It took Jiang Yulang a moment to speak.

"Yulang boy, don't worry, this kid has thick skin and thick flesh. He just needs to rest now. After all, he has hurt his vitality. You haven't rested for several days. Now that he wakes up, you don't have to hold on. "Wan Chunliu's voice sounded, hum, knowing that Jiang Yulang is your favorite disciple, do you need to be so biased?"

"I know master, you are tired too, I will take you back to rest first." Well, Jiang Yulang is really a good and polite boy, no wonder Wan Chunliu likes him.

"Little Yu'er, rest first, I'll see off the master." Jiang Yulang turned to me and I nodded.

Wan Chunliu's medicine furnace is not far from here, so Jiang Yulang will be back in a while.I looked at him and said with a slight smile: "Look at what you've become, lie down and sleep and have a good rest."

Jiang Yulang nodded, took off his coat, then lay down next to me and hugged me cautiously, muttering: "You finally woke up, you scared me to death."

My heart softened, it was rare for Jiang Yulang to say such soft words, I patted him with my uninjured hand in a funny way and said, "Okay, am I awake now? Even old man Wan said I'm fine , don’t worry, be good, sleep well.”

Sure enough, Jiang Yulang didn't say anything, and after a while, he heard his long breath.I felt a pain in my heart, I'm afraid this child is exhausted.Looking at Jiang Yulang's peaceful sleeping face, I just woke up and suddenly felt heavy and tight eyelids, then carefully adjusted my posture, and fell into a deep sleep.

The days that followed were very boring, just a life of recuperating after eating and sleeping.Old man Wan said that I was lucky that I wasn't bitten to a serious place, otherwise my arm might be useless.And while I was recuperating, Du Sha never appeared again.I would ignore him even if he showed up, hum, I really think I'm easy to bully.

The only good thing after recovering from my injury is that no one forced me to practice qigong, and even Jiang Yulang was free, but that kid was too rigid, and he got up early to practice qigong every day, and he stayed up every day.Well, I know Kung Fu is good because people work hard, and I am good because I am lazy... It's just that I sleep lightly, and I also get up early to practice kung fu.Later, I finally couldn't bear to be lazy, but Jiang Yulang actually got worse and dragged me to practice every day, really...

However, there is not much time for practicing. More often, he and I run and play wildly all over the mountains and plains.Growing up here, I am very familiar with the surrounding environment, so I began to drag Jiang Yulang to go deeper into the mountains.

It's just...it's the same when we come and go. No one cares about us now. The two of us often bring a lot of dry food and wander around the mountains for a few days before returning.In fact, even if you don’t bring dry food, you can’t starve to death. There are everything in the mountains. As long as you can identify what you can eat and what you can’t, you will never starve to death.And I don't know all about poisons, but I also know them pretty well.All I need to do is point out which ones can be eaten and which ones can't, and then leave the rest...to Jiang Yulang.

But... If you eat too much wild fruit, you will always want to eat wild game.So I would push Jiang Yulang to hunt wild rabbits and roast them.Jiang Yulang probably wants to eat meat too, after all, after two days of eating fruit, people will get tired of eating it.

It's just... the hare is too good at running, right?Because we are in the woods, the lightness kung fu did not bring any advantage to the two of us, not to mention our lightness kung fu is not good, so we will not be able to catch up for a while.Finally, when we finally caught up, we found that we no longer knew where we had gone.

"It's getting dark, and running around now is not an option. We'd better get some dry firewood, light a fire, eat something, sleep in a tree overnight, and talk about it tomorrow morning." Jiang Yulang's little friend looked at the sky and it was slightly dark. Said with a frown.

I nodded and agreed with his words. My Ayu is indeed a must-have product for home travel, murder and arson, but...you are only ten years old, why are you so mature.It's boring to be so old-fashioned at a young age.

It's really hard to find dry branches in the forest, and Jiang Yulang and I didn't dare to go far. Finally, after thinking about it, we just need to get some enough to roast hares, but...we found a problem after we finished finding dry firewood...go Where can I find water? How can I skin a hare without water?

I thought for a while and said, "Ayu, you stay here and watch, I'll look for a source of water."

"No...you stay here, I'll go over and have a look." Jiang Yulang was clearly worried about the last time I was bitten by a wolf.

I rolled my eyes: "I said I'll go, I'll go, I can see if there are any water-loving plants, it's faster, and the sun hasn't set yet, so there won't be any problems, not to mention, I can't beat it." I can't run? You think I'm stupid."

Jiang Yulang frowned and obviously wanted to say something else, so I hurriedly said, "Well, it's not that you don't know that I'm not good at using flint." It's true, I'm used to modern lighters, matches, etc. I haven't met since I got here.

"Then... well, but don't go too far, and call me if you encounter any problems."

I am speechless, Jiang Yulang, you are my friend, not my nanny!I nodded, then picked up the dagger that I carried with me, pulled the rabbit’s ears and left there—of course I have to take a weapon when I venture out. Ever since I fought with that wolf, I have deeply realized the truth that every inch is short and every inch is dangerous. But according to my current height, I can't hold a real long sword, so in the end I had to grind two short swords from Du Jiaojiao.

I don't know if I was lucky, but soon I heard the sound of running water.I smiled slightly and looked at the fat and oily rabbit on my hands. Today's dinner is finally settled.

Well, although the rabbit's fur is not big, it can still be used as a glove, so you have to take care of it.After I finished washing the rabbit, I was just about to go back when I suddenly heard the rustling of the grass next to me, and I couldn't help being a little vigilant.It's just that this place is already deep in the forest, so no one should come here, ahem, it doesn't count if Jiang Yulang and I have enough to eat.

The sound stopped for a while, and then it rang again. At first it was not clear because it was far away, but then it seemed to be getting closer, and it seemed that some animals were approaching here.

People say curiosity killed the cat, but I want to prove it's true.I know that this kind of deep mountain and old forest is dangerous, but I still can't help but want to see what it is.I walked over lightly, and was startled when I lifted the long grass, but obviously the little guy opposite me was also taken aback.

It took me a long time to tell that this little guy...probably, maybe...is a white fox?It's still very small, about a little bigger than the palm of an adult, and it looks cute and tight.It's just that the little guy is very vigilant, and he grinned at me as soon as he saw me.But the eyes are still aiming at the rabbit in my hand from time to time.

Well, it seems to smell a bit of blood, is this little guy injured?It was dark in the woods, so I couldn't see anything, but I couldn't say for certain, after all, the rabbit smelled bloody when I washed it just now.I looked at the little guy, forget it, although I like it...it is a child of the forest after all, and I can't turn it into a domestic pet because of my own selfish desires.Of course, it's another matter if he wants to go with me.It's just... Looking at the hostile eyes of the little guy, I guess it will be very difficult.

I sighed, waved to the little guy and said, "You can drink water or take a bath as long as you want, I'll go first." After speaking, I looked at it reluctantly, turned around and left.

After a while, he returned to the original place and saw Jiang Yulang who was fidgeting.Jiang Yulang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw me come back: "If you don't come back, I will think you were taken away by some wild beast."

I'm speechless, am I that weak, I can't run if I can't beat...

"Here, here you are." I handed him the washed rabbit, and by this time Jiang Yulang had already lit the fire.He took the rabbit cleanly and set the rabbit on fire.

After a while, the smell of barbecue came out, I closed my eyes and smelled it, well, I didn’t feel it just now, but now I feel hungry.So I began to look at Jiang Yulang eagerly, but I just didn't have the nerve to ask him when he could eat.

But Jiang Yulang, who grew up with me, understood what I was thinking when he saw my expression, and smiled at me: "You can eat it later."

"Yes." I nodded and continued to look at him eagerly.

After a while, Jiang Yulang took the rabbit down and cut a rabbit thigh for me with a knife.Well, my Ayu is really virtuous. From the outside, the color is golden and attractive, and the smell is also very good.Open your mouth and bite it.

"Woo." The first reaction was that it burned my mouth, and the second reaction was that it had no taste.

"No way, we didn't bring salt when we came out, this rabbit... can only be eaten alive." Jiang Yulang really knew what I was thinking.

Sighing, I had no choice but to swallow each mouthful, just to fill my stomach, as for the taste, ignore it.Just as I was halfway through the nibble, I suddenly heard the sound of rustling again.I shut my mouth and listened carefully, and found that I heard correctly, so I couldn't help but ask, "Ayu, did you hear anything?"

"Little Yu'er, come here." Jiang Yulang, who was sitting across from me, frowned and waved to me.

The corner of my mouth twitched slightly, I really wanted to tell him that I was really not weak enough to need his protection.However, looking at his appearance, forget it, and walked over obediently.Sure enough, after a while, a small head popped out of the grass behind the place where I was sitting.

I smiled when I saw it: "Hey, it's you, the little guy."

The little guy looked at me, then at Jiang Yulang beside me, and then at the rabbit bones on the ground, the vigilance in his eyes still remained.

"You... know it?" Jiang Yulang looked at me curiously.

"Well, I just saw it by the river, but it doesn't seem to like me very much. But... it followed me again... Well, what is this?" I tilted my head and looked at the little fox. Stare small.

"This little fox is so cute, I think it's hungry?" Jiang Yulang said while picking up a bone with some meat on the ground and throwing it over, it happened to land some distance away from the little fox .

The little fox tilted its head and looked at the bones on the ground with its warm eyes. I even saw it licking its mouth. I guess it was just like what Ayu said. It was hungry. After a while, it limped. The crook came over, picked up the bone and ran back into the grass.

"Hey, it seems to be injured." I saw the little fox struggling to drag the bone back, and couldn't help but said. Sure enough, the bloody smell just now came from it.

"Well, it's still so young, I don't know where its parents have gone." Jiang Yulang looked at the direction where the little fox disappeared and sighed.

"Forget it, don't think about it, nature has its own laws, we can save it once but not the second time, although I really want to help it... It's just that people may not appreciate it." I shrugged and sat down went back.It's just a little fox, and it's not a threat, so there's no need to squeeze with Ayu.

"Well, Xiao Yu'er can always tell some great truths." Jiang Yulang smiled softly and looked at me. Against the background of the fire, she really was...beautiful as jade...
