Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 315 There is indeed a problem

After roasting and eating a few rice cakes, Cheng He brought Cheng Xinxin water to drink.

Someone over there cooked egg soup with mushrooms and wild vegetables, filled a bowl for Cheng Xinxin, and brought it over.

"Come on, Xinxin, drink something hot." They were very enthusiastic.

Cheng Xinxin glanced at her father.

Cheng He nodded and said, "Thank you."

Cheng Xinxin took it and said obediently, "Thank you, Uncle."

"Oh, such a well-behaved child. You're welcome, you're welcome, these are all things from the mountains, so it's not worth thanking. Hehe..." Cheng Erxing said hastily.

Someone brought Cheng He a bowl.

After eating dry food, it is really a happy thing to be able to drink a bowl of hot soup, especially in this kind of uninhabited mountain.

The mushrooms were picked casually today, and the wild vegetables were also pulled out casually. The eggs, oil, and salt seasonings were all brought by myself.

Although it is wild vegetable soup, it is not worse than home-made soup.

Cheng Xinxin drank heavily, obviously this soup was quite to her taste.

Cheng Erxing turned to those animal experts again: "Experts, do you want some soup?"

The few people seldom talked, and quietly ate their own bread and dry food. In fact, they had long been envious of the soup here.

Obviously, it was beyond their expectation to drink hot soup in the mountains.

But they still shook their heads: "No, thank you."

Cheng Erxing was no longer polite and reluctant for the answer that he had expected for a long time.

Cheng He took a very careful look.

I always feel that these people are weird.

Here they are sipping soup, while the hunters over there have returned.

Cheng Xiaohu said happily: "I was lucky today, I got a few hedgehogs and a pheasant."

In the evening, these things came out to look for food, and the chances of finding them were a little more.

Hedgehogs are easy to handle, they can't run fast, and they can be taken away when they see them.Just be careful not to get stabbed.

When a hedgehog encounters danger, he hugs himself into a ball, which really makes people feel a little helpless.

The pheasant caught today was a bit lucky.The pheasant jumped out from nowhere, and was caught by several people in a hurry.

Originally, the pheasant could fly and could not be caught with bare hands, but this one seemed to have a problem with its wings and could not fly.

Three hedgehogs and one pheasant had a good harvest today.

If it's at home, it's best to stew it well, find some side dishes and make it well, it's best to go with wine.

But now outside, there is only one pot, which is still a soup pot. Several people discussed it and decided to roast the hedgehog and cook the soup with the pheasant.

In fact, they all brought dry food, and they hunted and ate just to satisfy their cravings.After all, it seems that since the bamboo weaving business got better, they haven't been in the mountains for almost half a year.

Even if you go into the mountains, you just walk around Taohua Village, and you won't run so far if you have nothing to do.But in the nearby mountains, these wild game are becoming less and less visible, so basically I haven't eaten these things for more than half a year.

Sometimes I still think about it.

Hedgehogs have already been skinned and gutted, and now they are threaded with sticks and ready to be roasted.

They gave one to Cheng He, and they roasted the rest themselves.

Cheng He brought seasonings, so it's easy to eat baked things, while turning them, sprinkle some seasonings or something.

The fire is very big, and it is cooked quickly.Wild things taste delicious.

Cheng Xinxin just ate roasted rice cakes and drank soup, but now that she saw the barbecue, she was hungry again.

Cheng He tore her hind leg first.

Not as thick as chicken thighs, but still very meaty.

Over there, Cheng Xiaohu and the others have also finished roasting, and they are sharing the food.

Seeing that Cheng Xinxin was also eating, Cheng Xiaohu asked, "Xinxin, is this delicious?"

While chewing, Cheng Xinxin said, "It's delicious."

It is really delicious, pure game barbecue, tender meat.This is not like the raised ones, which taste like chai chai.

Cheng Xiaohu saw how cute the little girl was eating, so he teased her: "Xinxin, do you teach singing in your kindergarten? Sing for me."

Cheng Xinxin ate greasy, and said, "But I'm still eating."

"Then sing after you finish eating, okay?"

"Uh...I don't want to sing, I want to tell stories." Cheng Xinxin tilted her head and thought for a while, blinking her eyes, and then said.

The cute appearance is really cute.

Cheng Xiaohu held back his laughter and said, "Okay, let's wait until you finish eating first."

Seeing the cute look of the little girl, the rest of the people couldn't help laughing too.

During the day, I only feel that Cheng He is too tired to carry her on his back, but now when I am free, I feel that bringing a child here is really fun.

It's interesting to watch.

When Cheng Xinxin finally finished eating, she said solemnly, "Okay, I'm going to tell a story, do you want to listen?"

All children have the desire to perform, and she is very happy to see that someone really wants to hear it.

At this moment, she thought about it seriously, and said, "Then let me tell a story about a crocodile and a monkey?"

The tone of a little teacher.

This is a children's story. Cheng He used to tell it to her almost every night before going to bed, so he was very familiar with it.

The rest of the people matched her tone and said: "Xinxin tells stories, of course I want to hear them, I really want to hear them."

So, Cheng Xinxin stood up happily and began to tell her story: "Once upon a time, there was a crocodile who lived in the sea..."

The little guy is a habit learned from kindergarten. Telling stories is not only about telling stories, but also with facial expressions, movements, and even emotions.

Therefore, when she talked about "there is a crocodile", she bowed her body and imagined imitating a crocodile swimming in the sea, and then said: "... there is an island in the sea, and there is a coconut tree on the island. There lived a monkey..."

When it came to monkeys, she imitated the movements of monkeys, jumping around, scratching her ears and scratching her cheeks, and she was very involved in the performance.

"One day, the crocodile wanted to eat the monkey's heart, so he deliberately lied to the monkey and said, "There are many banana trees on the opposite island, and the bananas grow fat and big. Do you want to eat them?" The monkey said, "I want to eat them. But I can't swim, so I can't get through.' The crocodile said: "It doesn't matter, I will carry you over."..."

"The monkey said: 'Then what's the point?' The crocodile said cunningly: 'It doesn't matter, we are old neighbors, come on, I'll carry you there.'..."

Cheng He looked at her, the child was not stage fright, and after she started to perform, she seemed to really regard these people as her audience, rather than some people who were idle to tease her.

She is serious and focused, taking this underground mountain forest full of dead leaves as her stage, her expressions and movements all match the content of the story, she speaks very seriously, and she is completely integrated into the story.

Although she was not very articulate, and sometimes even mispronounced a word or two, her attitude was so serious that she couldn't find any problems.

And this kind of earnestness and concentration obviously infected the adults.

Those people who had nothing to do and planned to tease her, saw her serious appearance, for some reason, they put away their jokes and became a little more serious.

Cheng He didn't expect it at all.

He has always regarded her as a child. In fact, at this time, she is serious and focused, and she seems to be no different from some serious adults.

How should I treat my children?Sometimes he doesn't know it himself.

She can really surprise him at any time.

Cheng Xinxin was immersed in the story she told: "...the crocodile swam to the middle of the sea with the monkey on its back, suddenly laughed and said: 'Silly monkey, you have been fooled, I am not going to carry you to eat bananas, I just want to Eat your heart!" The monkey was startled. It rolled its eyes and said, "crocodile, do you want to eat my heart? Why didn't you say so earlier? Take it. It’s still hanging on the coconut tree!” The crocodile said quickly: “Then let’s go back quickly, you bring your heart.” Then he swam to the shore. As soon as the monkey landed, he quickly climbed up the coconut tree, Ignore the crocodile."

Cheng Xinxin finished telling the children's childish stories seriously.

After the story was told, the people who were planning to make fun of her all praised her: "Xinxin, you told her really well."

"Well said. What a heart!"

"Well said, very good."

Even the unsmiling Lao Yang praised her at this time: "Little girl, you speak very well!"

Cheng Xinxin said solemnly, "You haven't applauded yet."

Oh, it's not enough to just praise without applauding.

So, the group of adults applauded her warmly according to the children's rules.

Cheng Xinxin suddenly felt shy, she snickered and hid by her father's side, buried her face in her father's neck, feeling very happy in her heart.

After some fun, after dinner, we sang some folk songs, told some ghost stories, and told some anecdotes about the mountains. It was getting late, and everyone went to bed.

Cheng He had already entered the tent and put the child to sleep.

At midnight, Cheng He was awakened by urination, quietly walked out of the tent, and went a little further to solve it.

But when he came back, he didn't go back to the tent, but quietly walked to the side of those animal experts.

Cheng He took a deep breath, almost as if his feet didn't touch the ground, so even though the ground in the forest was full of dead leaves, he didn't make a sound.

Several animal experts did not set up tents, but slept around a fire, and each of them only spread a cloth on the ground.

Physical fitness is really good!
When Cheng He was about a meter away from them, he stopped still and hid himself with a tree.

He took a branch more than one meter long with a sharp front end, and gently unzipped the zippers on the bags of the animal experts.

This bag is not small in size, they never leave their bodies, they are as cautious as anything.

In fact, the middle of the night in the forest is not absolutely quiet. In the middle of the night, there will be various sounds of insects and animals on the ground, and there will be rustling sounds when passing by dead leaves.

Therefore, the extremely low sound of gently unzipping the zipper will not wake them up.And Cheng He's movements were really light.

He felt that there was something wrong with these animal experts, so he wanted to take a look.

The zipper was unzipped, and with the faint light of the stars, he saw two guns from the bag!

Fortunately, he was mentally prepared, otherwise, suddenly, he might scream.

There is indeed a problem!
Cheng He didn't have much research on guns, just from the outside, it looks like a shotgun, of course, it may also be a tranquilizer gun.He is not a military fan, and he really doesn't have a deep understanding of these.

He has seen foreign animal experts use tranquilizer guns in some documentaries.

But is this a tranquilizer gun, or a real gun?

He wanted to take a closer look, but suddenly felt a light tap on his right shoulder.

In the darkness, Cheng He gasped.

Fortunately, the four animal experts were all lying in place, at least they were not discovered.

Just as he fell silent and wanted to distinguish whether it was a man or a beast, there was an extremely weak voice behind him: "Go."

It was Lao Yang's voice.

Cheng He was even more surprised. Why didn't Lao Yang sleep in the middle of the night?

when did he come out?Why is there no sound at all?
