In the wilderness in November, the grass and trees are all withered, and it is bleak. Under the moonlight, the distant mountains and woods have turned gray and black, blending with the sky and the earth. It is so dark that people feel panic and fear for no reason.
In such an environment, Shen Ruolan couldn't help but think of the words those people said when she was in the car in the morning. She was so frightened that she kept turning her head while walking, looking left and right, lest a wild wolf or a blind bear or something suddenly come out of nowhere...
Taohua Village is four or five miles away from Kaoshantun. There is a rugged mountain road between the two villages. This road is okay to walk during the day, but it is a bit difficult to walk at night. If you don’t pay attention, the potholes on the road can make you fall. A big somersault, or a "click" directly sprained your ankle.
Shen Ruolan has to observe her surroundings and stay vigilant at all times, and also observes the road conditions by the faint moonlight to prevent herself from falling or spraining herself. In this case, the physical consumption is even greater than when she came here in the morning, and she hasn't walked halfway yet. , she was so tired that she was panting and unable to move an inch.
Why! Such an unbelievable little physique!
She was sitting on a stone by the roadside, beating her legs, and complaining about her physique. If a person in normal physical condition walked this section of the road, it would be a bit tiring at best. Unlike her, half of the walk would be exhausted. Tired
After sighing a few times, she secretly made up her mind that she must take health care as the top priority at present. It is said that the body is the capital of the revolution. Without a good body, she can do nothing. Only by doing more things can her life turn around and life be meaningful.
Just as he was thinking with high spirits, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind him.
Shen Ruolan was taken aback, some horrible thoughts came to her mind, her scalp was numb from fright, she turned around slowly, already prepared for the worst in her heart.
However, when she turned her head and saw Zhang Eryong, the hanging heart let go again.
"Emma, Brother Zhang, it's you, you scared me to death!"
She patted her chest, complaining with lingering fear.
This man in the dark, in the wilderness, walked for several miles without any movement at all, but the sudden sound of footsteps didn't frighten people to death.
Zhang Eryong scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "I'm sorry Miss Shen, I'm here to deliver the sheep, I didn't expect to scare you."
"I don't blame you, it's because I'm too timid." Shen Ruolan didn't have the bad habit of losing her temper and venting her anger on others, what should happen is what should happen.
"Oh, I'm tired from walking, and I want to take a break. Brother Zhang, can you wait for me for a while?"
"Okay, Miss Shen, you can rest." Zhang Eryong said, leading the sheep and standing back silently, standing aside and waiting for her.
She also knew how to take a few steps back, which seemed quite sensible, Ruolan saw Zhang Eryong's actions, and silently praised him.
This Zhang Eryong, apart from being poor and not very talkative, is pretty good in other aspects. He has a good personality and good looks, and he is also good at hunting. Isn't such a man very good in a villager's family
I really don't know what Shen Ruomei is trying to do
"Miss Shen, I fed this sheep at home just now, you don't need to go back, Gulu Gulu..."
An untimely voice suddenly came, interrupting Zhang Eryong's words. It was extremely loud in this quiet field. Zhang Eryong hurriedly covered his stomach, with an embarrassed expression on his face, but his stomach didn't care whether the owner's face was good or not, and the gurgling yelled even louder. Work hard.
It seems that he is hungry, presumably this guy took the three pennies she paid back and was not willing to buy himself something to make up for it.
Shen Ruolan took out a big white steamed bun from the basket (actually in the space), got up and walked to Zhang Eryong, and handed the steamed bun over, "Brother Zhang hasn't eaten yet, here, eat a steamed bun to make up for it!"
"No!"
Zhang Eryong hastily waved his hands and declined: "I'll just go home and eat in a while, Miss Shen should keep it for herself."
Zhang Eryong knew a little bit about this "Little Shen girl". She knew that she had a hard life. She ran away from her mother, and her father didn't care about her. A steamed bun should be a very precious thing, he would be ashamed to eat hers.
Shen Ruolan didn't know that she had already been sympathized with, and she just cared about pitying this frugal idiot, she took a step forward, stuffed the steamed buns into his hands, and said: "We work as helpers, as usual The owner has to provide a meal, you deliver the sheep for me, and I will provide you with a steamed bun, so that’s enough for your meal."
This reason is reasonable, and Shen Ruolan has already stuffed the steamed buns to him, so it would be hypocritical for him to stuff them back.
Zhang Eryong had no choice but to catch the steamed bun, and said embarrassingly, "Thank you." '
Shen Ruolan Mimi smiled: "You don't need to thank me, brother Zhang helped me a lot today, and if I want to thank you, I thank you."
Zhang Eryong smiled innocently and lowered his head to eat the steamed buns.
Night, quiet, in the open wilderness, only Zhang Eryong's low chewing sound, Shen Ruolan sat on the stone with her cheeks in her hands and waited quietly, bored, she said, "Brother Zhang, entering the mountain is really as dangerous as they say ?"
She remembered what the group of people in the car said in the morning. She had always been interested in going up the mountain. If it was true what they said, then she would completely give up the idea of going up the mountain.
Zhang Eryong swallowed a mouthful of steamed buns and said, "It's not as mysterious as what they said, but it's not without danger, it just depends on everyone's luck and ability."
"Then have you seen any dangerous beasts in the mountains? Like tigers and wolves?"
"Yes, I have seen two lonely wolves, I have seen a leopard, and I have seen a bear cub..."
When it came to hunting, Zhang Eryong talked more, and he was not as shy as before. He talked freely, talked about the habits of ferocious animals, and said that the area of Wolong Mountain was safe and dangerous. There are many beasts in those places, and there are many herbs in those places...
After eating the steamed buns, Shen Ruolan had already rested, and the two of them got up and set off for the backer.
Considering that Shen Ruolan was weak, Zhang Eryong deliberately slowed down his pace. The two talked all the way, from hunting up the mountain to how to raise wild sheep.
This is probably the legendary pairing of a man and a woman, so you won't be tired from working, Shen Ruolan thought so.
When I entered the village, it was already Xu time, and the villagers in the village had already gone to bed. The villagers all had the habit of going to bed early because they were reluctant to light the lamps. You know, the lamp oil money saved by a family in a year is also very considerable. What about the pen.
The two quietly entered the village, walked to Shen Ruolan's house, and tied the wild sheep under a big tree in the back garden. The back garden was full of weeds, and the weeds grew higher than the courtyard wall. Next to the mountain, keep the sheep here, and no one will see it at all.
