The old hunter stared blankly at the group of little sisters and sailors, dragging the wolf he had just shot in his hand. The little girl and the sailors gave the hunter a thumbs up:
"You are awesome! You defeated this wild wolf alone." The little girl said loudly again. ,
Hearing this little girl's adoring compliment, he grinned. He stopped running forward.
"Come on, don't run away. Let's sit down together. It's morning now, and we want to know about your situation. Or, we want to ask you what you want to do with this wild wolf." The younger sister started chatting, "Old hunter, We are from central China and want to know the living conditions of the residents in the north."
"Old hunter, are you a native of the north?" the younger sister asked.
"..." The old hunter did not answer and shook his head.
"Are you not a local?" the younger sister continued to ask.
"..." The old hunter still didn't answer and nodded.
The younger sister was a little confused. Could it be that he was a mute hunter? As she came closer, the little girl looked at him carefully. She saw that he had a dark complexion, a high nose, thick eyebrows, and big eyes. There was a pair of deep-set eye sockets with a pair of blue eyes, just because his face was covered with dust and leftover from fighting with wolves. The wolf claw marks made the blue eyes less obvious.
"You are so brave, how dare you fight this wolf alone! Last night I saw this wolf on the edge of the mountain, looking at our fire with green eyes. I was timid and didn't dare to approach it. I didn't You dare to wake up your companions." The younger sister praised the old hunter.
Hearing the compliment, the old hunter grinned.
The younger sister also smiled generously.
"You shot it first, injured it, and then followed it? Then looked for a chance to fight it?" The little girl kept talking to the old hunter.
This time it was the old hunter's turn to give his little sister a thumbs up, as if to say: "Awesome! How did you know?"
"Here, look at the marks on your face from fighting the wild wolf. We know that you fought it hard in the dark night." The little sister pointed at the old hunter's face and said, "You are simply the hero we admire! Hey, old man Hunter, what do you want to do with this wild wolf?”
"..." The old hunter pointed to his mouth. I saw the old hunter squatting down, lifting the branches under his feet, and making a clearing.
The old hunter meant to roast it and eat it.
"Haha, I'll light the fire!" A sailor understood the old hunter's movements. Another sailor took the wild wolf from the old hunter and planned to deal with it with him. Scrape, chop, and chop into small pieces.
They built a bonfire on the spot, and each sailor took a piece of meat and roasted it on the bonfire.
The little sister couldn't eat it, but he felt very satisfied when he saw that the sailors could fill their bellies. She was filled with joy as she watched them nibbling with relish. She continued to learn about the situation from the old hunter.
In the face of the magical nature, human beings always find ways to support themselves. Defeat natural disasters such as strong winds, tsunamis, deserts, droughts, etc., etc. My little sister gained many new feelings while traveling north this time. She cannot be like a flower hiding in a greenhouse. She must undergo the magical tempering of nature to become more mature, more fearless, and more outstanding and heroic.
The old hunter watched the sailors sharing wolf meat with him with such relish that he felt a sense of accomplishment. He sighed in his heart: "This is the first time since he was chased out of the sea and escaped here that he felt satisfied inside."
It turns out that he is a barbarian veteran. In the past, he had been stationed by the river. Later, when Lieying Wang Shan and Princess Liehui fought against the barbarians, he secretly escaped and swam toward the island. He swam to this area in the north, hid on a hill, and made a living by hunting animals and picking wild fruits. Once, he saw a few people living in the northern region, who lived a simple and simple life by fishing. He was envious. However, he did not dare to go into the crowd. He was afraid that the people in the northern region would regard him as an alien or execute him as a barbarian.
Since ancient times, people who have escaped a disaster have cherished life, even if the living conditions are extremely difficult. The old hunter relied on his good eyesight to have enough clothes in the mountains. When hunting, if there were more prey, he would go to the market to change clothes. So much time has passed, and the old hunter is still living in the mountains with plenty of food and clothing, and no worries about his life. He appears as a mute, no one knows his origins, and no one cares about his living conditions.
He sometimes thought that he should also be a brave man in life.
Until today when he saw the little sister and his party, he had a new feeling: he could bring happiness and satisfaction to the people traveling with him. This was such a joy to him!
The younger sister was sitting opposite the old hunter and saw him in a daze. just ask:
"Old hunter, what did you think of?"
"..." The old hunter laughed! The dusty face showed neat teeth. He pointed to the north as if to say:
"There are people living in that direction!"
"Really? Old hunter, are you saying that there are many people living in the north?" the younger sister asked.
"..." The old hunter smiled and nodded. Then he gestured, "I'll take you to the north."
It's true that "you can't find anything even if you wear iron shoes, but it takes no effort to get it."
"Great!" The little sister and the sailors were overjoyed. They took the old hunter back to the tent from the original route and repacked some basic supplies. Under the leadership of the old hunter, we headed north along the mountain road.
As soon as the old hunter reached the steep mountain road going down the mountain, for safety reasons and to avoid falling down the slope, he told his younger sister and the sailors to weave rattan into rattan belts and then connect them to big trees so that they could slide down the mountain one after another. go. This saves a lot of time.
Witness and creativity always make a difference. As they walked along, they felt like they were camping. Traveling this way feels fast. I feel like I have become a brave climber again in front of the magical nature.
The mountain road became steeper and steeper, and the old hunter led the way. The sailors crawled hard with their little sister.
There seemed to be some darkness in the forest. The sailors were in a hurry and wanted to find a place to rest. When the old hunter saw how exhausted they were, he couldn't help but laugh. He meant, "We've just walked a lot of mountain roads, and you're already exhausted? You're not very strong."
The younger sister smiled and said: "It is difficult for people who live in water towns to climb mountains, not to mention that they are busy traveling. It is not easy for them to have such speed. Of course, if compared with you, it is Not even close!"
"Don't lie still! The inhabited place is almost here!" The old hunter looked at a sailor lying on the ground and pointed into the distance with his right hand, meaning: "Look, there is smoke rising from the kitchen!"
Seeing the smoke, the sailors lying on the ground jumped up. "Get up and go!" (To be continued)
