Chapter 7 Xu Family Village

Until the sun goes down, in the evening.

The villagers who went out to work came back one after another, and the village gradually became lively.

"God shit, it's trying to heat me to death."

"Oh, the rice is all wilted. I'm afraid this dry season will be sad."

"Zhuzi, it seems that you are not so sad."

"Hey, I caught a field mouse and sent it to my door today, but I lost a little weight. If the dry season is sad, I will be sad. Let's talk about it first at the Tooth Festival tonight."

"Tsk tsk, why am I not so lucky?"

"."

Xujia Village is not big, and there are less than a hundred households in total, so it can only be regarded as a small village.

Xu Gu'an looked around from the door of his house, and he could see the fence of wooden piles and the tall horses standing staggered at the border of the village.

The village relies on these defensive works to resist most of the wild animals that wander here.

Of course, the location of the village is also particular. Generally, it will be chosen in an area where wild animals rarely appear.

There are not many wild animals around Xujia Village throughout the year.

These fences are just in case of precautions, and there is no serious safety problem.

Xu Gu'an looked at the corpse of a field mouse in the hands of a young man in the distance, and seeing that no character card had popped out, he immediately lost interest and looked elsewhere.

Not long after, his mother, Feng Man, also dragged an old wheeled cart back to the door of the house.

The cart was filled with a pile of grains, as well as a few wild vegetables and fruits, which were the food for tonight.

The wheeled cart looked very heavy, but Feng Man dragged it like flying.

The women here are not as weak as the women in the previous life. They also exercise their bodies since they were young, and they are very strong.

Xu Gu'an stepped forward to help clean up.

"Xiao An, it's okay, it's hot outside, you go indoors and stay." Feng Man wiped the sweat from his forehead and waved his hand.

Feng Man's skin is not very good, under the sun exposure, even if his physique is excellent, it will still be yellowed and darkened by the sun, and it looks a bit rough.

On the contrary, Xu Gu'an stayed at home all the time. He has never experienced wind and rain since he was a child, and his skin is very fair.

"It's okay, mother, eating the monkey meat yesterday is really effective, and today I feel a lot stronger." Xu Gu'an laughed.

Regardless of persuasion, he stepped forward and moved the grain down together.

"You child, if I knew that monkey meat was so useful, I wouldn't eat it." Feng Man felt a little regretful when he heard it.

"What are you talking about, mother, I can't eat too much at first, too much at one time, but it will be harmful to my body." Xu Gu'an immediately comforted me.

He did feel that his strength had increased slightly, but the main credit for this was definitely not the monkey meat last night, but the snake gall that he ate today.

Of course, the spotted snake dare not explain the origin, and he can only attribute the changes in his body to the monkey meat last night.

"Who did you hear all this from?" Feng Man didn't expect Xu Gu An to say something serious, so he couldn't help asking.

"I heard it from the old village chief's lecture before." Xu Gu'an reacted quickly, and attributed the source to the old village chief of Xujia Village.

The children in the village basically went to the old village head for some intellectual education when they were young.

Similar to a children's school, it teaches some basic common sense and basic knowledge.

Hearing that it was the old village chief, Feng Man stopped asking.

What the experienced old village head said, I can't go wrong.

After processing the cart of grains, Feng Man went into the kitchen to prepare steamed rice for cooking.

Later, Xu Guping and Yaya also came back.

Xu Guping was dragging the wheeled cart in front, and Yaya was sitting on the grain pile in the cart, with her legs crossed, chatting and laughing with her elder brother.

The evening wind blew, making Yaya squint her round eyes comfortably, her calves dangling in the air.

"Yeah, the second brother is waiting for us at the door."

Xu Guping looked and saw Xu Guan smiling and waving at him at the door, so he couldn't help but hastened to take two steps.

"Brother, I'm in good spirits today, could it be because of the monkey meat last night." Xu Guping approached, put down the wheeled cart and said with a smile.

"It's probably effective." Xu Gu'an nodded.

"Then I'll hunt a few more for you in the future." Xu Guping said immediately.

"Say it's a bit late for dad to come back today." Speaking of hunting, Xu Gu'an couldn't help but a little bit of worry rose in his heart.

Xu Guping glanced at the gradually darkening sky, and the smile on his face also subsided.

In the past, it was time for Xu Xinnian to come back, but now, the hunting team from the village hadn't returned yet.

Not only their family, but also other families in the village, from time to time someone stood at the door of the house and looked towards the village.

Even Feng Man walked out wiping his hands at this moment, and asked, "Has Xin Nian not come back yet?"

"No." Xu Guan shook his head.

Yaya also felt that the atmosphere was not right, she pursed her lips, clenched her fists, and looked outside the village.

The sky is getting darker and darker, and the sunset has only the last thin layer left.

A round of crescent moon was revealed, pouring soft silver light.

At night, the danger factor in the wild increases sharply, and hunting teams usually don't let themselves stay outside until night.

This must be some moth, something happened outside.

If this situation is dangerous, the consequences are unimaginable.

More and more villagers gathered together.

"Aunt Cui, did Liushui come back from your house?"

"No, I'm so worried."

"It'll be fine, maybe it's a long detour, it happened before."

"Oh, I hope so."

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, someone standing at the head of the village suddenly exclaimed.

"Come back, the hunting team is back!"

In the dark field, there was a figure approaching the village quickly, with chaotic footsteps.

Standing at the door of the house, Xu Gu'an couldn't see clearly, but Xu Guping's eyesight was amazing, and he was relieved when the group of people entered the village.

He saw Xu Xinnian in the team returned intact.

"Mom, it's all right, dad is back."

Hearing this, Feng Man was relieved, saying that it's good, that's good.

Soon, the hunting team arrived in the village, and every household gathered together.

"My God, it's the mountain wolf!"

Everyone immediately knew what happened.

Today's hunting team encountered wolves, which are indeed a dangerous enemy in the wild.

In the area of ​​Donglan Mountain, there are not a few villagers in various villages who die at the mouth of wolves every year.

Although the hunting team finally repelled the wolves and brought back several mountain wolf corpses as trophies, it can be seen that many people in the team were injured.

The most serious one had half of his arm bitten off, and he simply wrapped his arm with cloth to stop the bleeding.

He was also the first to take away.

The old village head is not only the first teacher for the children in the village, but also the only doctor in the village.

On weekdays, if anyone gets sick and can't get better, they end up looking for the old village chief to treat them.

And if the old village chief can't heal well, then there is a high probability that he will not be saved.

Xu Guan followed Feng Man and greeted him.

"Xinnian, you, how are you?" Feng Man grabbed Xu Xinnian and asked, his eyes swept over her husband's body.

Fortunately, apart from some damage to the sackcloth, there were no serious injuries.

"I'm fine, just a little scratch, it's just Xinyong." Xu Xinnian patted Feng Man's hand to show comfort, and then sighed.

The Xu Xinyong he was talking about was the hunting member with a broken forearm.

A broken arm cannot be regenerated, and I am afraid that the other party will not be able to follow him to hunt in the future.

Feng Man didn't speak at the side.

There are only a few people in Xujia Village, they don't see each other all day long, and they are no strangers to each other.

There is more or less affection, and Feng Man also sympathizes with what happened to Xu Xinyong.

Xu Xinyong's family, the dry season this year may be difficult.

Xu Guping also remained silent at the side, watching Xu Xinyong leave with clenched fists and a solemn expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

At this moment, Xu Gu'an completely ignored the reactions of the people around him, and his eyes were fixed on one of the mountain wolf corpses.

Above it, there is a gray light cluster floating.

He is very familiar with it, and it is the character card he has been thinking about!
