Lei Yue Longmen

The little girl snorted, and with a confident look, she pushed the pig down the hill. The slope here was steeper, and it didn't take much effort for her to roll the pig to the foot of the hill.Li Jingchen wanted to help, but the little girl smiled gratefully and said that it is not necessary now.She wiped her hands on her body, raised her index finger to her mouth, and blew a loud whistle. After a while, she heard a sound of "ha~ha~ha~ha" coming from a distance, Accompanied by the rattling of wheels.

Li Jingchen thought someone was coming, but when he got closer, he realized that it was a big black wolfhound, and behind him was pulling a small cart with two wheels, which was obviously used to consign prey.The big wolfhound was very experienced. He pulled the car to the side of the prey, stopped, and turned the front of the car half a circle to make it easier for the owner to load the prey.

Li Jingchen was a little surprised to see this wonderful scene, the little girl ran forward and patted the big wolf dog's head: "Ah wolf is so good, I will give you the best pork later." The big wolf dog barked for two The sound seemed to express joy, and then he squatted on the ground and "ha~ha~" had to stand by, very obedient.

"Sister, can you help me? Can you lift the pig into the car? The rest of me? I can do it alone." The little girl said shyly.

Li Jingchen hated the bloody smell on the wild boar, but he forced himself to nod and called Cen Zhuo to come down to help.

The latter walked down the hillside unwillingly, and when he saw the big black wolfhound, he let out a "huh" and secretly thought that he was of the same color as the little girl.The big wolf dog seemed to see that she was disrespectful to his master, and barked loudly at her, baring his fangs, wanting to be as angry as he was!

Cen Zhu was a little disgusted and said, "Don't you have a mule at home? Do you want it? You've been reduced to relying on a dog to pull a cart? What kind of cart is this? It's so small, can it pull a pig?"

"My family's mules and carts were all driven to the market by my brother, and I haven't come back yet. This is all I have." The little girl didn't know why her eyes were red.

Cen Zhu was speechless, "Then you can let it? Stop barking? It barks so badly, what should I do if I attract wolves in a while?"

The little girl then sneered and said: "You are so annoying, even A Lang doesn't like you. It? It doesn't bark when it sees my sister, but barks when it sees you? Stop, don't you? Prove that you are Scoundrel! Dogs are the most humane!"

"I? Say you, you little girl, how did I offend you? Why are you targeting me everywhere in your words?"

"Ghosts are rare to target you!" The little girl muttered disdainfully.

"Yeah, I? No? Same knowledge as you."

Cen Zhu went around the car to observe, and walked up to Li Jingbai, "You can't smell blood, so just stand aside and don't get involved." Li Jingbai's heart moved slightly, but he insisted on refusing to stand on the sidelines. : "I'm afraid you two can't lift it, don't worry, I can do it."

Cen Zhu followed her, and the three of them worked together to load more than 200 kilograms of wild boar onto the cart. With a bang, the small cart was about to fall apart under the pressure of the pig.The little girl hurried to the front, pressed down the two upturned handlebars with her thin arms, supported the handlebars with both hands, carried the rope on her back, turned her head and smiled brightly at Li Jingchen: "Thank you, sister."

Cen Zhu was tired out of breath while holding his waist? He caught his breath and said, "Hey, why don't you? Thank me? Ah! I? I also did my best, okay! Don't repay your favor, isn't it? It's what a gentleman does! "

The little girl pursed her lips, very unhappy. She reluctantly said to the big wolf dog in front of her, "Ah wolf, don't you? Thank you!"

The big wolfhound was very cooperative and yelled twice: "Wow! Wang!"

"..."

Cen Zhu choked for a moment, his chest was full of anger, and he stared at the back of the little black girl's head, "You you you" "Me? Me? Me?"On the contrary, Li Jingchen didn't hold back for a moment, and let out a smile that he hadn't seen for a long time, but was immediately covered up by her, and his mouth was pursed into a straight line without waves, with an extraordinarily serious look.

The little girl wants to pull the cart to the other side of the mountain, and then pick the pig up the mountain with a pick.Li Jingchen promised to help her, so he decided to keep his promise and escort the little girl back to the mountain.

Despite her small stature and slender arms, she is very strong, and she pulls such a heavy car like a tiger.Li Jingzhu and Cen Zhu only helped her up a gentle slope, and she was so tired that she was out of breath. On the contrary, the little girl said with a relaxed face: "Thank you sister, the rest is going downhill, me? I can do it alone, you don't have to push." caught."

Li Jingchen was a little worried, and while fanning his neck, he asked out of breath, "Really? You can do it yourself?"

"Well, I've walked this downhill countless times. Don't believe me, if you both sit up, I can pull you both."

"No, let's sit with the pigs, you'd better save yourself!" Cen Zhu said angrily.

But, she was right, the rest of the road will be downhill.The little girl hardly used any strength, she only controlled the handlebars, and the small row of cars pushed her forward automatically, with a sense of ease.

It's just that Cen Zhu was exhausted. Even though it was going downhill, walking still required a lot of effort. After walking half a circle around the foot of the mountain, she finally came to the other side of the mountain. She almost collapsed.

Hearing the sound of rushing water ahead, she regained her spirits and ran a few steps forward. She saw a turbulent stream appearing in the green shade in front of her. The stream flowed down from the mountain stream. It becomes a waterfall and the white waves roll.On the gentle terrain, the level is like a mirror, silky and bottomless.Such a scorching hot weather, such a thirsty and exhausted noon, with such a clear water source, it is like a fairyland on earth.

Cen Zhu was so happy that he forgot all his troubles, he couldn't wait to run to the stream, wishing he could bury his face in the water.He rolled up his sleeves and drank several swigs, the stream water was as clear as a spring.She was so refreshed and happy, she turned her head and greeted Li Jingchen: "You are right, there is indeed water on this mountain! You can drink it! Come here!"

Li Jingchen took a look at her, and first helped the little girl push the car to the lower reaches of the creek. It is said that she will clean the belly of the pig here, and then smoke the meat, because it will take a long time to go up the mountain. Isn't the weather like this? Hurry up, it will go bad in a while.

When the princess heard that she was going to disembowel a pig, she hurriedly backed away.Cen Zhu also saw this scene, and yelled at the little girl, "You're a shame! Such a beautiful stream, you actually used it to dissect wild boars!"

The little girl didn't want to talk to her at first, but later she really couldn't see her disgusted face, and said angrily: "Is it because you can't bear it, and I don't want to kill it so early? , Dead pork is easy to smell, if you don’t dissect it and smoke it, it will rot in the mountains!” The little girl is obviously more experienced than she is in how to deal with prey.

However, Cen Zhu still said confidently: "I? That's for your own good. Killing is already a crime. Let the living wait half-dead, adding more karma, and will suffer retribution."

"Then don't eat the pork I roasted later, I? I don't believe you have never killed anything!"

Cen Zhu froze at the little girl's last rhetorical question, and did not continue talking to her. He waded across the brook, sat on the big rock opposite, and boredly pumped water with a long twig, sulking alone.

"The difference between the spear and the sword is only two seconds. If Kong Xiezi doesn't? Turn around, the sword will be on the right side. You have left him a chance, and he is still dead. This is God's will."

Li Jingzhu's words floated faintly from the opposite bank, Cen Zhuo stopped the movement of his hands, and raised his head in surprise and confusion.The person opposite had just scooped up a handful of water and sprinkled it on his face to moisten his cheeks. It seemed that the words just now did not come from her mouth.But her shadow was reflected on the rocks at the bottom of the water, shaken by the ripples, clearly staring at her seriously.

"Besides, Kong Xiezi wanted to hurt me. Did you kill him to save me? Didn't Buddhism say that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda? Killing someone to save someone is a matter of course, and there is nothing to feel guilty about!"

After finishing speaking, she stretched her hand under the water, suddenly hooked a handful of water and splashed it on the face of the person who was in a daze, "So don't? You're in a daze, come pick up branches with me? Don't you want to wait without doing anything?" Do you want to eat?" Cen Zhu instinctively retracted his chin, but was still splashed by the flying water droplets, no? He blinked in disbelief, watching her get up and walk into the small woods next to her, the softest part of his heart seemed to be It was tapped lightly, leaving a cool wet mark.Worried that she might get lost in the woods, Cen Zhu hurriedly dropped the twig and followed her on the water, "Wait? Wait? I? I? I'll go with you!"

Wait? When they came back from picking up a lot of dry branches, the little girl had already cut the dissected pig into several large pieces, and was subdividing the large pieces into smaller pieces with a short knife. made her makeshift chopping board.

Li Jingchen found it incredible that an eleven or twelve-year-old girl had to do everything by herself, from hunting wild boars to making edible pork. This absolutely required superhuman courage and guts.She couldn't help wondering how she did it. Taking advantage of the time to light the fire and set up the scaffolding, she chatted with the little girl and inquired about her life experience by the way.

The little girl's name is Zhu Tongluo. She is only 12 years old this year. There is also an older brother named Zhu Tiechui. The two brothers and sisters are hunters on Crouching Tiger Mountain. The family has been hunting for generations.

When Cen Zhu heard that her surname was Zhu, he immediately laughed and said, "Then you hunt wild boars, don't you? You are fighting in the same room? Alas, they are born from the same root, so why bother?"

The little girl was very angry and threatened that if she dared to laugh at her surname again, she would let Ah Lang come and bite her.Cen Zhu pursed his lips and fell silent.

Li Jingxuan asked with concern: "Since you have a brother, why don't you see him to help you?"

When mentioning her elder brother, the little girl couldn't help but her eyes turned red. It turned out that four years ago, 16-year-old Zhu Tiechui went down the mountain with a newly caught prey to exchange rice in a town twenty miles away. return.Now there is only the little girl left on the mountain. I don't know where my brother has gone, and will he come back.

Li Jingchen sighed for a while. Four years ago, she was only eight years old. Her brother must have had an accident, otherwise it was impossible to leave her alone on the mountain.One can imagine the difficulty for an eight-year-old girl to survive on this mountain full of wolves, tigers and leopards.

From her experience, Cen Zhu thought of Gu Qing and Gu Rentu, two brothers and sisters, and couldn't help being filled with emotion. He didn't know how Gu Qing was doing now, and he was very worried about her safety.

Li Jingzhu noticed the change in her mood, and without saying anything, he lit the fire, and tied two of the brackets on Cen Zhu's three legs.She helped the little girl thread the big piece of meat with sharpened wood, and set it up a little away from the fire, where the smoke could drift again, and let it dry slowly.

The smoking method is an ancient method of meat preservation. The purpose is to use smoke to dry out the moisture in the meat to achieve the effect of preserving quality.According to the little girl, pork can be preserved for at least one month after being smoked.However, it takes two to three days to completely dry the meat. She only smokes it for an hour or two now, in order not to rot when she goes to the mountain. She will have to smoke it again when she returns home. last few days.

Wait? All the large pieces of pork were put on the smoke rack, and the little girl pierced the small pieces of meat with twigs and roasted them on the fire.Cen Zhu was already so hungry that his eyes were dimmed, and when he smelled the meat, his mouth watered.In the past, I made a bunch of skewers for Li Jingchen, and I also made a bunch of them myself. I was sweating by the campfire, and my eyes hurt from the smoke. I sat beside the fire excitedly, watching the meat turn from raw to cooked, slowly The yellow grease was leached out and dripped onto the fire rack in a "puff puff puff", causing the tongue of flame to jump up suddenly.

Smelling the smell of cooked meat, Cen Zhu blew on the hot air on the meat, and was about to try it with his paws, but the moment his finger touched the meat, he was burned, so he quickly retracted it, and pinched it on his earlobe. After a while, I was a lot more careful when I went to get it.I picked off the meat from the branch and put it in my mouth as I wished. After chewing, I found it was indescribably delicious.

"Jingzhu, you can eat." Li Jingchen was also hungry, took the cooked meat that Cen Zhu handed over, and ate carefully and reservedly.Seeing that some of the meat was too big for her to chew, Cen Zhu offered to help her eat it cheekily.When the second wave is roasting, he draws out the dagger that he carries with him, and subdivides the meat again.When Li Jingchen ate again, he noticed this change, the previous annoyance disappeared, and the eyes he looked at her were much softer than before.
