Little Ningxia is very smart. However, it is obvious that her mind cannot accommodate more complicated things for the time being. She still thinks that the competition between her brother and Brother Okura is just a competition. Naturally, she cannot understand that the other party has worked so hard for her.
She was also a little sad. If her brother doesn't win, she can't go. This is her first time picking things, and she still wants someone familiar to be with her.
Seeing his little sister frowning like him and pretending to be an adult, Ning Dengrong nodded her head in confusion.
"Okay, it's all gone. If my brother can't go, then he can't go. My little sister has to protect herself and don't mess around, you know?"
"Yes. Don't worry, brother, I will pick it along with your share. I want to pick a lot of them for my parents to eat..."
"Hey! Little guy, you seem to have missed me..." Ning Dengrong pretended to be dissatisfied and tugged on little Ningxia's braid.
Under the setting sun, the two brothers and sisters cast long shadows with their backlights apart, side by side, which was particularly warm.
Ningxia didn't know when she got up, so she stopped and stood there watching the brothers and sisters leave, without moving for a long time. Her profile hidden in the dusk showed a hint of melancholy for no reason.
No matter how reluctant he was, Ning Dengrong got up early the next morning and sent Ning Xia away. He sent his little sister to the team and asked a familiar brother from the same village to take care of her before he left without looking back.
The half-grown child here was made to cry and laugh. This little brother is worried too much and is actually more nervous than his parents. There is no danger. He is just trampling on wild vegetables and mushrooms nearby. The children in the village have been coming here for so many years, and there has never been an accident.
"Ning Dengrong, let's go. Don't waste time here. I'll bring your sister back neatly for you. Not a hair will fall off." Okura laughed angrily at his "mother-in-law" behavior. Quickly "drive people away". But there was obviously a smile in the words, and the meaning of ridicule was even greater.
"Brothers and sisters, let's go!"
"good!"
A group of children left in a grand manner, and some naughtily turned their heads to make faces at Ning Dengrong, who stayed behind.
Seeing little Ningxia turn her back and wave to him, Ning Dengrong felt inexplicably uneasy for some reason. But when I looked into it carefully, I couldn't find the feeling, which made me feel uneasy.
Ning Xia stood behind Ning Dengrong with a sullen face. When Ning Dengrong turned around to go home, he didn't follow him, but followed little Ningxia's team.
wrong. Ningxia pursed her lips. Since she came to this world, she has never participated in such a picking team, or she has gone to the wilderness to pick things. There is no such thing as a children's team in the village. Anyway, Ningxia has never seen an adult leading a team.
There is no memory of the original owner.
Is this a fake situation or something else... She has a feeling that this time the situation is not that simple.
Ningxia followed the team closely, not far or near behind little Ningxia.
The person Ning Dengrong asked for help was actually quite reliable. He seemed to have been taking care of Ning Xia. Seeing that she had short legs and weak strength, he would help her from time to time.
The team carried out the picking work in an orderly manner.
Okura is indeed a well-informed person. He knows exactly where there are more wild vegetables and where to find rare mushrooms. Children can easily pick many common wild vegetables and mushrooms as long as they follow him.
Little Ningxia is young, almost the youngest in this group. Everyone thoughtfully placed her in the middle team and looked after her.
It's a pity that man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation. Things like fate are often irresistible. Sometimes it's really impossible to predict what will happen next.
The last destination is Yabian, a place where rare mushrooms and herbs are found.
Of course, it cannot be picked by children, nor can they pick it. In fact, I just came here to check according to the instructions of my elders. I was surveying from a distance with my eyes.
The elders had told them what to observe. For example, Ganoderma lucidum is often surrounded by a thin circle of clouds where it grows, or a certain grass likes to grow in large clumps of red tail grass, or... But as long as the growth status of the plants on the edge is recorded, adults will judge based on the notes. Do you need to go up and check it out?
A group of young men carried baskets carrying today's rich harvest, waiting for Okura to complete the last step before returning to the village.
But something went wrong at the last step.
"Ah -" No one could react. A small piece of the mountain road they were standing on collapsed. The stronger ones could barely hold on to the collapsed slope and prevent them from rolling down.
This sudden change frightened everyone. Okura was more determined, but he also forced himself to pretend: "Why are you standing there in a daze? Pull the people up quickly. Do you want to watch them roll down completely?"
"Quickly, take people down quickly. The little girl from the Ning family has fallen down. She is standing right in the middle. She must have fallen down." One of them kept shouting before anyone could pull him up. It was the person Ning Dengrong entrusted to him. , he said hoarsely with his teeth cracking.
Upon hearing this, Okura and another older child immediately went down, and another one ran to notify an adult not far away to send someone to rescue him.
What is Ningxia doing? She followed him down, faster than Okura, almost at the same time.
The longer she watched here, the more complicated Ningxia's mood became. She seemed to have a vague idea of what this situation was about.
It can be said that little Ningxia was extremely unlucky, as if God was determined to take away her life.
The road would collapse even when walking on a flat road, and it happened to be her area that collapsed, and she was the only one who completely fell down. A six-year-old child would probably be seriously injured if he fell from such a height.
But her suffering obviously did not end so soon. There was a pit right below where she rolled down. It was neither big nor small, shallow but not deep. It had been raining a lot these days and it had just stored some water.
Ningxia rolled down and entered the pool, and the whole person was submerged. The water is not deep, but a six-year-old child can just go in and get over the top.
This is destined to be a dead end. Ningxia can't wait any longer, and even if it waits, it may not be able to hold on.
