Chapter 117: Hunting in the Mountains and Encountering the Wounded
Chen Qingying raised her eyes and glanced at her, then said calmly: "Eldest sister, I miss my father."
"Ahem, Qingying, why are you thinking about daddy all of a sudden?
It's broad daylight, and you're in such a bad mood. What if you accidentally let something slip and reveal your father's information?
You don't want Dad to come back and help clean up the mess in the old house, do you?
They just happen to be in need of someone, otherwise I should ask someone to invite Dad back and continue to work like a slave for that family?"
Chen Qingying shook her head like a rattle:
"No, no, no, don't bother Daddy. Big sister, can you give me Daddy's portrait?"
"Portrait? What do you want this thing for?" Chen Qingxin was stunned.
Chen Qingying said seriously: "Eldest sister, when I see Daddy's portrait, it is like seeing Daddy; seeing Daddy, I won't miss him every day anymore."
"Uh..." Chen Qingxin took out his paintbrush, and in less than half a minute, a lifelike sketch of Chen Guanghui appeared on the paper.
"Wow! Daddy, you look exactly like the real dad! Big sister, you are so awesome!" The little girl's eyes were full of admiration.
Chen Qingxin smiled and touched the little girl's head:
“What’s so strange about this?
But I still advise you to hide the portrait quickly!
If the old woman or the little rascal finds out one day, they will definitely force Dad to come back."
The little girl pouted, looking aggrieved: "I see. Big sister, thank you! I will treasure it well."
Chen Qingxin nodded: "Well, be good! The eldest sister is out for something. Where is your second brother?"
Chen Qingying nodded heavily, took Chen Qingxin's hand, and whispered in her ear:
"My brother is angry and is in his tent. Ying'er doesn't dare to disturb him."
"Oh? Why?" Chen Qingxin didn't expect that the melon would be eaten by his own family.
Driven by curiosity, she induced her sister step by step and soon found out the whole story.
"I see. I understand. Then you stay here for now. When you get bored, you can go to the vegetable garden you planted.
Seeing green is good for your eyes and your mood.
The eldest sister went to find her brother and asked him if he wanted to go hunting in the mountains to relax.
Let’s have a nice meal tonight.”
Chen Qingying nodded again.
Chen Qingxin left his sister's tent and walked slowly to the outside of Chen Qingwen's tent, "Qingwen, do you want to go into the mountains with your elder sister?
It's just past noon now, and there are still a few hours before dark.
If you don’t go, I’ll leave by myself!”
There was a rustling sound from inside, and soon the curtain was lifted. Chen Qingwen poked half of his head out, with a conflicted expression on his face: "Should I go too?"
"Nonsense! If you don't go, who will accompany me up the mountain? Don't dawdle, let's go!"
Chen Qingwen gritted his teeth and nodded, and finally agreed.
He was used to obeying his eldest sister's orders.
I also know that my eldest sister not only keeps her word, but also keeps her promises.
Anyway, I don't want to disobey my elder sister's orders, so just follow her!
Chen Qingwen took a bow and arrow and followed Chen Qingxin into the depths of Nanshan Mountain.
Chen Qingwen asked: "Eldest sister, what game are you planning to eat tonight?"
Chen Qingxin blinked and said mysteriously, "Keep it a secret!"
Chen Qingwen curled his lips: "Every time you talk nonsense, it's quite funny."
"Is it funny? Why didn't I notice it?"
Chen Qingwen shook his head: "Just forget it!"
The siblings walked for a distance, and Chen Qingwen stopped and pointed to a place not far ahead, "Eldest sister, look, is that a wild boar over there?"
"Yes! It is indeed a wild boar. I wonder if it was so hungry that it rushed towards me."
Chen Qingxin smiled and hid behind a big tree. The wild boar weighing three or four hundred pounds bumped into the tree!
Chen Qingwen's eyes lit up: "Great! We are so lucky today! We actually met a stupid pig."
Chen Qingxin flew forward and slashed his dagger across its neck: "It's pretty good."
After he finished speaking, he thought about it and the wild boar entered the space.
She smiled awkwardly: "I put it in the warehouse and I'll eat it slowly later.
Based on a meat yield of 65%, 260 kilograms of meat can be obtained.
We should stock up now, because it will snow in winter and we can’t go out, so we can have meat to eat.”
At this time, she remembered that she had not yet eaten the 500-pound wild boar and the 100-pound deer that Xiaoyingzi brought back for her last time.
Chen Qingwen was very excited when he saw that he had easily caught a big prey. He nodded repeatedly, and then said worriedly:
"Eldest sister, this wild boar is so big, what should we do if others see it?"
Chen Qingxin smiled lightly: "Haha, if the villagers saw it, at most they would just say something like 'wow', 'so big', 'so fat', etc.
This kind of topic is already commonplace for people in our village."
Nowadays, people in the countryside like gossip, especially women.
People are particularly excited about listening to and talking about gossip.
"Huh? What is this?" Chen Qingwen was sharp-eyed and found that there seemed to be blood stains on a stone.
Chen Qingxin picked up the stone and looked at it, and said in surprise: "It's blood. Who was injured?"
The two looked at each other.
Chen Qingxin hesitated and asked, "Did someone fall off the cliff and die?"
Chen Qingwen was terrified and waved his hands quickly, "Sister, please don't make random guesses, it makes my hair stand on end!
If your words were heard by others, it would be taboo."
"Alright, alright, you are so young, but you act like an old man. I admire you.
Regardless, we still have to be careful.
It is really hard to tell whether it is human blood or animal blood.
It is best to throw away anything stained with blood.
Otherwise, it will bring disaster and you will regret it too late."
Chen Qingxin threw away the blood-stained stone.
Chen Qingwen nodded, agreeing with what Chen Qingxin said.
"Let's go. I keep getting a creepy feeling, like something's watching us from behind."
"Nonsense. You are too timid. There is nothing to be afraid of in this remote wilderness. Let's go find some game."
"Hey, elder sister, wait for me!"
The brother and sister continued on their way.
As I was walking, I suddenly heard a rustling sound in the grass beside me.
The two of them stopped and looked around vigilantly.
A dirty man jumped out from the bushes.
The man was in a dishevel, his clothes were torn, his arms were covered in bloodstains, and the bright red blood was seeping out, which was shocking to see.
"who are you?"
Chen Qingwen immediately went into alert.
The man raised his eyes and looked at the brother and sister, his eyes were bloodshot.
With a painful expression on his face, he said weakly: "Help...help me!"
"Save you? Why should I save you? Who are you? Why are you here?"
"Ahem...you...you don't have to...be afraid...I'm not a bad person." The man panted and spoke intermittently.
The brother and sister looked at each other with doubtful expressions.
Chen Qingxin asked indifferently: "What's your name?"
"My name is...Sun...Zhiqiang! Save...save me, I...I am being hunted..."
Sun Zhiqiang's voice became weaker and weaker.
He was lying on the ground with his blood-stained hands reaching towards the direction of the siblings, and he fainted.
