At the beginning, Shichu stuffed a jujube into his own mouth and stuffed one into the horse's mouth, not forgetting to tell it: "Remember to spit out the core. I don't know how to perform the Heimlich maneuver on a horse."
The horse snorted at her, looked at her with disdain, then moved his mouth several times, and suddenly spit out a date core very neatly. After spitting out, he looked at Shi Chu provocatively, not forgetting He opened his mouth and asked her for more jujubes.
Shichu:……
This horse has become a sperm, right?
"Okay, I know you can spit out date cores, so I'll feed you as much as you can!" Shi Chu rolled his eyes and fed Ma.
After feeding her, she hurried on her way again. This time she didn't stop at the village where the wedding was held, so she missed her accommodation and had to sleep outdoors that night.
However, this was already a common occurrence for Shichu, and sleeping in the wild was nothing to her.
After finding a place with stable terrain, she released the old horse at the beginning and let it move freely. She then found a place and planned to set up a stove to solve her dinner problem.
There were all kinds of food in her space, and there was no shortage of food at all. However, she was in the wild right now, and it would be a waste if she didn't have some barbecue. So Shi Chu took out various seasonings and brushes and prepared to roast a lamb. .
The sheep had been slaughtered a long time ago. At the beginning, all they needed to do was clean them and hang them on the barbecue rack. After the fire started, they patiently turned them over and applied the seasonings.
After burning the incense, the smell of barbecue wafted out. Of course, it was far from ready to eat, but the meat had just been combined with the seasonings and roasted to create a fragrant aroma.
It is said that the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, and the aroma of meat is not afraid of distant mountains and forests. As the aroma of the roasted sheep became stronger and stronger, drifting farther and farther, a group of uninvited guests were welcomed at the beginning.
The uninvited guests seemed to be a family traveling far away, some old and some young, with servants and guards. The group of people just stopped not far from Shichu, and it seemed they didn't intend to leave.
"Hey! Brother, can you share some of your roasted lamb with me? I don't think you can finish it by yourself..." A middle-aged man in his thirties came over and stared straight at Looking at the roasted lamb, he asked Shichu unceremoniously.
"No, I can't finish this meal, I can save it for the next meal." Shichu refused expressionlessly. How much time and seasoning did it take her to roast a lamb? How can you give it to others?
The middle-aged man was rejected and immediately became unhappy. He shouted: "The next meal will be stale! I think you are too stingy. I don't want everything, I want half. I still have my wife and children. They ate only dry food along the way, and they are already hungry. Just do me a favor and give me some for their sake... Do you have the heart to let the elderly and children watch you eat alone? "
Good guy, he also learned how to kidnap morally. Shichu sneered and said, "What can I not bear? It's not my mother and my child."
"You! Are you really unwilling to give it? You really want it. You are alone, but I have strong guards and servants. If there is a fight, who do you think will be the loser?" Seeing that the moral kidnapping failed, the middle-aged man began to threaten, and his eyes looked at Shichu with a hint of intimidation.
Shi Chu pulled out the sword from behind with a sudden backhand, pointed it straight at the middle-aged man, and said: "Really? Why don't you come and ask me about this sword? I am only one person, and you are here. If there is a fight between the old and the young, who will be more scrupulous? Who will be unscrupulous?"
When the middle-aged man heard what she said, he was immediately choked and speechless. His face was extremely ugly. He obviously realized that he was the one who needed to worry more, because even though he had a guard, he still had a weakness. Shichu It was different. She was alone. She was barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. If she really fought hard, she would not be the one who suffered.
Probably because he was really afraid that Shi Chu would fight him regardless, the middle-aged man swallowed his breath and apologized to Shi Chu with a stiff face: "It's because I'm blind, I hope you don't blame me for what I did just now." You are reckless and impulsive, I will leave now and won’t disturb you anymore.”
Shichu snorted coldly and then put the sword back.
When the middle-aged man saw that she had no intention of continuing to pursue the case, he quickly ran back to his team and wanted to ask everyone to leave. However, his son obviously did not think so. He started crying and shouted: "I want to eat barbecue! I want to eat barbecue." Eat barbecue! Dad, why didn’t you bring me barbecue?”
The crying was so loud that Shi Chu couldn't help but look over there and saw a fat man about seven or eight years old struggling in the arms of a middle-aged woman. The woman could hardly hold him. , sweating profusely, and kept coaxing him.
However, the little fat man refused to give up. The middle-aged man became angry and scolded him with his eyes wide open: "What are you making a fuss about? We don't have barbecue! Stop thinking about it and leave!"
"No! I want to eat barbecue. I saw it, it's roast lamb! Dad, please grab the roast lamb for me..." The little fat man was already rolling on the ground.
When Shichu heard what he said, he immediately sneered. They were indeed a family. It turned out that they were educated in the family. Just now, the middle-aged man wanted to force his own roast lamb, but his son also wanted to rob it.
"Husband, why don't you go and discuss with that little brother, can we use the money to buy his roast lamb? It's not an option if Yu'er keeps crying like this..." The middle-aged woman said to the middle-aged man in embarrassment.
The middle-aged man quickly glanced in the direction of Shichu and lowered his voice: "That man is not a good person. He will kill someone if he disagrees. He has a sword in his hand. Let's not provoke him. I said before I wanted to ask him for some roast mutton, but he refused and looked at him with eager eyes. We are a group of people, old and young, and we are the ones who suffer from him..."
"Then what should we do?" The middle-aged woman was anxious and worried after hearing this. She peeked over at Shichu from time to time, fearing that Shichu would really draw her sword to kill them. "Husband, let's get out of here now? It's too far away from him. It’s too dangerous to be close.”
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now." The middle-aged man said. He had asked the convoy to stop here before just to take advantage of others. Who knew that if he didn't take advantage, he would be intimidated and he would naturally be in a hurry to escape from here. , so he quickly ordered people to start again.
However, everyone has stopped and started to camp for the night. Now that they have to leave again, they have to pack their things again. This wastes not a little time. Moreover, it is already getting late and we have to travel, so we need to find the next suitable place to sleep outdoors. It must have been dark somewhere.
In this wilderness, darkness means danger, and you don't know what kind of wild beasts you will encounter, so when everyone heard that the middle-aged man said he wanted to leave, they were naturally very reluctant and tried to persuade him to change his mind.
