Portable space

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Taiping rarely went to practice after waking up. He only wore a pair of trousers and opened the window, lying on the window and looking outside.

Cai Yazhi hid in the quilt and looked at Zhang Taiping's back, her eyes were in a daze. Zhang Taiping's broad and tall back had several scars vertically and horizontally. Seeing this, one could imagine what kind of life he lived outside all these years , the day when blood was added to the knife edge?Cai Yazhi couldn't guess what kind of life it was, it would not be easy, it was dangerous anyway.

In fact, since Zhang Taiping discovered space, the scars on his body can be repaired, but Zhang Taiping does not know what kind of reason it is, maybe it is proud of his past deeds, maybe it is to show off his masculinity, in short, these scars Left unrepaired.

A gust of cold wind blew in from the window, Cai Yazhi unconsciously tightened her quilt, only then did she realize that Zhang Taiping was still standing at the window topless, not caring about herself, and wanted to get up and get a piece of clothing for him to put on.When Zhang Taiping heard the movement behind him, he could understand what was going on without turning around.Cai Yazhi hesitated for a moment, then put down her clothes and got into the bed, looking sideways at Zhang Taiping's back intently.

Zhang Taiping stood in front of the window with his upper body naked like this. To ordinary people, the biting cold was just a bit cold to him. The stimulation of the cold wind made his mind clearer.

The snow has stopped, and the world covered in silver has no other color. Although the sky is already bright, it is not clear yet, and the sky and the earth are still the same color in the distance. It is hard to tell whether it is snow or a white sky.Judging from the snow on the tree trunks, the ground is at least a foot thick, which is considered to be a rare heavy snow in recent years.

Some birds also started to come out to look for food, and the snow flakes that flew over the treetops and fell on Zhang Taiping's body felt cool.The snow in the mountains is purer than that in the city, and there are very few such residues. The fine snow flakes are inhaled into the nose and feel refreshing.

Standing in front of the window, Zhang Taiping was thinking about how to deal with the fruit in the space. If he sold it, it would be too little. It would not be worthwhile to mobilize people, and he would not be able to sell it for much money. He had to explain a lot about the source of the fruit, which seemed to be only occasionally. Some of them are taken out, and the rest are simply brewed into wine. This is a good thing!

Zhang Taiping was still thinking, when he saw Wang Peng running over, and seeing Zhang Taiping standing naked behind the window, he was surprised and asked, "Brother, are you not cold?"

Shaking his head, he said, "It's not cold."

Wang Peng took a deep breath and said in disbelief: "Brother is really amazing, I feel cold when I wear such thick clothes."

Zhang Taiping looked at Wang Peng's attire and found that he was indeed wearing a lot of clothes. Inside was a hand-knitted sweater, and outside was a coarse cotton-padded jacket. He wore a pair of cotton gloves on his hands, and woolen earmuffs on his ears were wrapped around his chin. In the past, even the chin was protected.

Zhang Taiping didn't dwell on this topic any more, and asked, "What's the matter here early in the morning?"

Only then did Wang Peng realize that he still had something to do when he came here, so he hurriedly said: "Brother, catch the rabbit and go, old man Qian is also there, let me come over and call you, brother, will you go?"

Zhang Taiping was not in a hurry when he thought about wine making, so he said, "Wait a while, I'll clean up." After closing the window, he went back to the kang and put on his clothes, and said to Cai Yazhi, "I'll go talk to Wang Peng, old man Qian and others. I went to catch the rabbit, and the time is not sure, so you don’t have to wait for the meal, you can eat if you are so hungry.”

After tidying up a bit and just about to leave, the door of the wing opened with a creak. The well-dressed Fan Ming saw Zhang Taiping holding a fork and was about to go out, so he hurriedly asked, "Where is Brother Zhang going?"

"After the heavy snow is a good time to catch rabbits and pheasants."

"Ah, hunting, wait for me." Then he ran in and changed a pair of shoes and came out, washed at a speed several times faster than that of Pingshu, put on a mink hat again, and put his little hands in a pair of plush warm clothes. In the gloves, a rope is connected to the two gloves and hung around the neck.

When going out, Fan Ming went into the bedroom and said to Cai Yazhi who was getting dressed, "Sister Cai, Brother Zhang and I went hunting."

Under the leadership of Wang Peng, there were quite a few people at the meeting place, old man Qian, Wang Gui, Wang Laoqiang, and a young man, plus Wang Peng and Zhang Taiping, a total of six men, and others who followed. Fan Ming and inseparable walk like water.

"Haha, let me tell you, the commander will definitely come." Seeing Zhang Taiping's figure, old man Qian said with a hearty smile.

A few of them didn't have a shotgun or other powerful weapons in their hands, at most they just wanted to hold a steel fork like Zhang Taiping.The main purpose of going out is not purely hunting, but to stroll in the snow and feel the scenery after the snow.

Zhang Taiping brought Ah Huang and the lion out.Ah Huang is okay, after all, he is a dog who has experienced big storms. He is much more mature and stable, and he keeps leaving his mark along the way.Relatively speaking, the lion is a little excited and lively, jumping around the crowd and having fun.After old man Qian's Heizi died, he picked a big dog again, but it was only a little over a month ago, so he didn't bring a dog today.On the contrary, Wang Laoqiang brought a small dog, which is a good breed of dog.Wang Gui also brought out his little black dog.The two dogs dare not approach Ah Huang anymore, and they can still play with the lion now. As for what will happen when the lion grows up, I don't know.

The snow was more than a foot thick, and no one's knees could be buried in uneven places.Everyone walked slowly in the snow with deep feet and shallow feet. Old man Qian couldn't help but said happily as he stepped on the thick snow: "Auspicious snow heralds a good year. It seems that next year's city will not be wrong."

The auspicious snow heralds a good harvest, and the empirical conclusions drawn up by the farmers over the years are still reasonable.The snow is thick this winter, which not only freezes to death most pests and diseases, but also has the effect of keeping warm.After another snow melts, there is water again. The water will not evaporate all at once or irrigate the ground all at once to cause waterlogging, but will keep the land moist for a long time as it freezes and disappears. point.It will not evaporate until the next year's thaw, and the water is sufficient, enough for the wheat to survive the time when it needs it most, so there is no absolute guarantee for a good harvest, at least there will be no more droughts, which is called Ruixue.

After so many years of reform and opening up, people in the village are still not open-minded enough, and they still can't let go of the recent grain of En.Although it is no longer the kind of thinking of two acres of land, a cow, and a wife and children on the kang, but in the end you have to have food in your hand to be at ease. Planting fruit trees is a matter of grass and rabbits.

That's why old man Qian first said that the auspicious snow is a sign of a good year, instead of thinking about the impact of such heavy snow on the fruit trees, and whether it will affect the flowering and fruiting of the coming year.The others also nodded. The dreams of most farmers in the village are buried under the thick white snow, not on the branches that cannot sit on the snow.

Zhang Taiping does not agree with this way of putting most of his energy on how to harvest food, but he has not said anything at the moment. Some things cannot be said to change people's ideas, and they need to come up with real and powerful achievements and proofs. , so what needs to be done is to rely on hands instead of just moving the mouth.

After walking for a while, Fan Ming asked, "Master Qian, do you want to go into the mountains today?"

Old man Qian said with a smile: "I don't go into the mountain today, I just go out and walk around, and catch a few rabbits and pheasants by the way. You don't need to go into the mountain, as long as you are on a slightly higher slope. Walk a few more steps arrive."

It has been snowed, especially this kind of heavy snow mountain is the most difficult to walk.The snow is heavy, and when the wind blows down to the low-lying place, it is possible to fill up the meter-deep pit or steps. It looks flat and flat, covered with thick silver-white snow. If you step into it, If it's light, it's just to frighten people a little bit, and if it's exaggerated, it's possible to plunge the whole person into a snow pit.

There was an experienced old man leading the way ahead, and no major problems occurred to everyone, but minor problems continued.Fan Ming once followed behind Zhang Taiping, because she didn't follow Zhang Taiping's footsteps step by step, she stepped into a shallow pit. He fell on the snow, unhurt, just startled.Then he followed Zhang Taiping's footsteps one step at a time, and he didn't dare to walk carelessly again. It looked like a flat needle and white, who knew whether it was flat ground or a pit.

After going up a small dirt slope and reaching a forest, old man Qian waved his hand and said, "Here we are, that's it."

Everyone stopped, and it was Fan Ming who asked, "Master Qian, is there a rabbit in here?"

"Of course, look at the ground." Old Man Qian said proudly.

Fan Ming looked down at the surrounding snow. Besides the plum blossom footprints left by the people and the four dogs, there were also many bamboo-thick deep pits and three-pronged footprints. He exclaimed in surprise: "Is this the footprint of a rabbit and a pheasant?" ?”

"Yes, you can see that the footprints here are messy, and they are gathering here from all directions, so there must be a lot of rabbits and pheasants here."

Fan Ming saw that it was indeed so.

Old man Qian said, "Let's catch a few wild ones first." Then he signaled to everyone to keep quiet, and Fan Ming quickly covered his mouth when he was about to speak.

Old man Qian went into the woods alone, took out a handful of wheat from his pocket and sprinkled it on a snowy field with the most chicken paw prints and mouths. This place should be the place where pheasants are most active.It seems that old man Qian still had some preparations when he came, but the wheat was not smeared with medicine or threaded, nor soaked in wine, it was just simple wheat grains.

After the old man sprinkled the wheat grains, he retreated along the original road. Fan Ming didn't understand how to catch the pheasant in this way. Just as he was about to ask a question, the old man signaled to wait patiently for a while, but he held back and didn't ask any questions. Props to how you caught the pheasant.
