Going into the mountains is something Zhu Pingan has only dreamed of. When he returned to the east wing, Zhu Ping'an began to pester Zhu Shouyi to follow him into the mountains.

"You think it's fun to go into the mountains. There are black blind people there who specialize in eating children. Don't go there." Mrs. Chen deliberately frightened Zhu Ping'an and didn't want him to follow.

This child is really worrying. Running up and down in the village is enough to make people worry. Now that he is fine, he wants to go into the mountains with him. Are you deliberately trying to prevent me from having a happy life? Mrs. Chen felt more and more that it would be better to have sons instead of daughters. They were all like debt collectors, not to mention being naughty and mischievous. If she married a daughter-in-law and forgot about her mother when she grew up, she would not know where to be sad.

Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but rolled his eyes when he heard Chen's scare. He was really treating himself like a child.

"No, there are fat rabbits, pheasants, and delicious fruits in the mountains." Zhu Ping'an stopped pestering Zhu Shouyi and ran over to hug Chen's thighs and rub them for a while.

Zhu Ping'an knew who was in charge in the family. Even though his father was tall and thick, he was eaten to death by Mrs. Chen. If Mrs. Chen didn't say anything, his father wouldn't even dare to fart.

"Did you tell him?" Mrs. Chen stared at Zhu Shouyi with almond eyes.

Zhu Shouyi's face turned pale with fright, and he shook his head repeatedly. He didn't dare to make Mr. Chen angry. The last time Mr. Chen was angry, she made him sleep on the ground for more than a month without looking good. That month was simply not a human life. , it’s scary to think about it.

"Tomorrow you stay at home and I'll make delicious food for you. If you dare to go out, I'll beat your ass!" Mrs. Chen turned her gaze to Zhu Pingan, coaxing and intimidating her to make him change his mind.

If Zhu Ping'an was really a five-year-old child, he would have surrendered obediently to Chen's coaxing, but unfortunately he was not.

"Mom, I want to follow my father into the mountains. I want to find delicious food and be filial to my mother." Zhu Ping'an hugged Mrs. Chen's thigh and refused to let go.

"Shit, stop coaxing me with this trick!" Mrs. Chen said angrily. She was very angry. This bastard is just over five years old and wants to go into the mountains. A rabbit can knock you over.

"I want to go into the mountains with dad!"

Zhu Pingan gave full play to the spirit of a scoundrel kid. No matter how much Chen tried to coax or scare him, Zhu Pingan would just use this sentence to deal with it, go into the mountains, into the mountains, into the mountains...

Mrs. Chen got angry, turned Zhu Pingan over, pressed her on his lap, slapped him, and spanked him.

Ouch, I want to go into the mountains!

Zhu Ping'an screamed and screamed after being beaten by Chen, but still insisted on going into the mountain.

Mrs. Chen looked at her little son. She was so angry that her teeth ached. She didn’t hit you hard, but she screamed like a pig being killed. You little bastard! Do you think going into the mountains is fun? There’s something messy inside the mountains. Things.

"Fuck, why don't you let Xiao Zhi follow? Anyway, I'm just on the outside of the mountain. If I don't go in, there's no danger." Zhu Shouyi whispered.

Mrs. Chen glared at her, and Zhu Shouyi immediately lowered his head and became silent.

However, in the end, Mrs. Chen still nodded and agreed to follow Zhu Pingan into the mountains despite Zhu Pingan's persistent pursuit, but she couldn't help but gave a lot of instructions: Don't run around, follow your dad obediently; don't eat randomly, your dad said you can You can only eat what you want; don’t try to catch rabbits...

Xiahe Village is at the foot of Wanniu Mountain. This Wanniu Mountain is not the modern Wanniu Mountain at the junction of Beijing and Hebei, but is roughly in the area of ​​Anhui and Hubei. In the Ming Dynasty, it was located in the Huguang Chief Envoy (Province).

Woniu Mountain is shaped like a lying cow, so it is named Woniu Mountain. It lies in front of the dense forest of Cangshan Mountain, like an old giant cow, with its neck lying on the mountains in the south. The two tall peaks on the head are like horns, and two streams of mountains flow out from the mountains. The stream merges into a clear stream at the chin, facing the mountains on the opposite side.

Legend has it that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Taishang Laojun, also known as Laozi, rode a green ox and dragged a wooden cart out of Hangu Pass to preach and teach before he attained enlightenment and became an immortal. When I attained the Dao and became an immortal, he did not ascend to heaven alone like Liu An, King of Huainan during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Instead, I transformed into three pure beings and ascended to the heaven alone, with the green ox chasing after me like Kuafu chasing the sun. , sleepless until exhausted, lying on the ground with tears in his eyes, his body turned into mountains, and his tears turned into mountain streams that merged into clear streams...

This is the legend of Woniu Mountain passed down orally by the elderly in Xiahe Village.

Three figures, one big and one half big, walked from the low mountainous area outside Woniu Mountain. The sunlight shone on the three of them through the layers of dense leaves, leaving mottled shadows of the clawed trees. The mountains were rugged, the roads were not smooth, and the roads were mixed. The path overgrown with grass and bushes is full of gravel, grass and fallen leaves, which make a rustling sound when you step on them.

These three people were Zhu Ping'an, his father Zhu Shouyi, and his brother Zhu Pingchuan. Zhu Shouyi and Zhu Pingchuan were carrying large backpacks. In addition, Zhu Shouyi also had a woodcutter tied to his waist. The Ming Dynasty had looser control over cold weapons. Bows, arrows, knives, and crossbows were all allowed to be owned by the private sector, but armored firearms were strictly controlled. So Zhu Shouyi also brought a woodcutter, because his family was not a full-time hunter, so he never had a crossbow. Zhu's father's level as a hunter is only to catch some small animals with traps. As for bending a bow and shooting eagles, he knows nothing about it.

As for Zhu Ping'an, he was carrying an extra-small basket. Zhu Shouyi originally wouldn't let him carry it, but he insisted, so Zhu Shouyi went with him and made him an extra-small basket overnight, and asked Chen to tell Zhu Shouyi You can just pamper him!

"Zhu Shouyi, please listen to me. If the two little ones are missing a hair, I will tear you apart when they come back!"

Mrs. Chen's voice before leaving the house was still vaguely ringing in Zhu Shouyi's ears. He couldn't help but look back at the two little ones as he took a step forward.

Zhu Ping'an walked behind the two of them with his short legs and carried a small basket on his back, tapping his calves with his hands from time to time. Entering the mountain is indeed not accessible to ordinary people. The mountain road is bumpy and difficult to walk, and there are twists and turns in the forest. If you go further in, there will be no road at all. You can only travel by memory. If you don't have an experienced hunter, it will be easy. get lost.

This is only the outskirts of the mountains. If it goes deep into the mountains, even experienced hunters would not dare to set foot alone. Legend has it that there are eye-catching tigers in the mountains.

"Zhe'er, are you tired? I'll carry you on my back." Zhu Shouyi felt that it was not easy for his youngest son to walk here on his own with his short legs. When he looked back again and saw Zhu Pingan beating his legs, he couldn't help but said.

Zhu Ping'an immediately shook his head and joked. If he lets me carry him now, after returning home, his mother will definitely not let him go into the mountains next time! He will definitely say, hum, I have to carry people on my back when I go into the mountains, and I still want to go in. Shan, take a shower and go to bed early!

Therefore, Zhu Pingan decisively refused for his future plans to enter the mountains. Besides, he also needed to exercise his lower arms and legs. This was just an opportunity to exercise. In the past, when I looked at China on the Tip of the Tongue, there were countless delicious foods in the mountains. This time I entered Baoshan, so I couldn’t return empty-handed just because I was being carried on my back.

Zhu Shouyi was a little surprised when he saw Zhu Pingan's simple refusal, but he looked at Zhu Pingan with admiration. This kid had a future.

"Second brother, put the backpack in my backpack first." The eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan also wanted to help Zhu Ping'an lighten his burden.

"No need, big brother, I can do it." Zhu Ping'an insisted on being independent. Nothing could stop him from going to the mountains as a foodie, let alone looking for something in the mountains that could improve his family's economy.

Seeing Zhu Ping'an's determination, the two gave up and just slowed down appropriately when walking.
