Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 86: Be so energetic that you need to be in awe

In the dark mountains and old forests, there is light like fireflies rushing forward.

Taking a closer look, it was Xu Ning, Li Fuqiang, Wang Hu and Chai Bing!

At this moment, it was already around 5:30 in the evening, the sky was already dark, and the temperature plummeted to more than 30 degrees below zero.

Their faces were blue from the cold, their cheekbones were marked with two red plasters, and their cotton hats, eyelids, eyelashes, and nostrils were covered with hoarfrost.

Wang Hu, Li Fuqiang, and Chai Bing held pine Mingzi torches and were shivering from the cold.

They were heading in the direction of Shilizi, where they had stopped before lunch, and they would be there about two miles further.

The cold and freezing weather made it difficult for the four of them to breathe. When they took a breath, the cold wind went straight into their throats.

Fortunately, the cold wind was not too strong. Chai Liangyu was careful and asked Chai Bing to go to the factory to find the sheepskin cotton monkeys. They also wore them in their cotton-padded jackets, which could withstand a lot of trouble.

However, when a person bites his back, not only does he drink cold water to stuff his teeth, but he also urinates and is easily frozen!

Suddenly some snow particles fell from the sky, falling on the hats and shoulders of the four people.

Wang Hu and the other two people held up Song Mingzi torches, their faces were so blackened by the smoke. When they saw snow particles falling from the sky, they were slightly startled, and instantly felt like they were spoiled!
  Li Fuqiang slapped the snow particles on his arm and said in shock: "Oh my god! How can you return the snowflakes?"

Wang Hu muttered: "How come our idea is so small today!"

The firewood soldiers in front stopped, turned around, looked at Xu Ning, and asked: "Brother, look at these falling snowflakes, what should we do?"

Xu Ning sighed softly. Before he went into the mountains to escape, he was full of confidence and high spirits. He was bound to stop the pigs and surround them with fire. Then he went in and out quickly, and went back to have a good sleep.

Tomorrow, when all the villagers in Wangxing Village gathered around the village to divide the meat, they all looked surprised when they saw these old wild boars.

At that time, who wouldn't be able to take a high look at Xiao Xu, who is so young but has a strong grasp on thieves?
  When the news reaches Qing'an, the notoriety on his head can be removed and replaced with a "little Xu Pao" hat.

Just think about it!
  However, Xu Ning was too anxious. Although he originally had a good idea, he never expected that he would be frustrated twice as soon as he entered the mountain.

Once, he didn't expect the pigs to go so far into the mountains, so they only caught up with the pigs around 3:30 in the afternoon.

The second time was that although he expected a tiger, he did not expect that there were four tigers. Three of them were facing them across the ditch, and they only had to stick out their tongues to lick his forehead affectionately.

After two more setbacks, Xu Ning reflected deeply. He originally thought of going to Shilizi to find a cave and spend the night there, to avoid the hassle of traveling late at night.

Unexpectedly, God was not kind at this time and snow particles fell.

Three consecutive setbacks!
  These three sticks completely woke Xu Ning up.

He originally had a sense of superiority, thinking that he knew everything and could do everything. Even Xu Laowen and Wang Laoxie, he didn't take it seriously.

Since returning from fighting, I have gone into the mountains to hunt pigs and bears, and it has been smooth sailing.

The mountains seemed to be his back garden. Whatever his family lacked, he would go into the mountains to get it.

He had lived in vain for more than fifty years before his rebirth. He had just come back to help improve his home. Hearing the praises from his family and outsiders, he felt happy again.

This kind of mentality is actually easy to understand. In the past life, I was complained and cursed, but in this life, I heard praise and praise, and my mentality will indeed change.

Fortunately, he didn't get too excited.

Xu Ning cursed in her heart. In my previous life, I was able to get rid of the bad habit of making money and drinking alcohol because of my broken hand and hamstrings. Am I just that fucked up? I have lived for more than fifty years in vain. If I have this kind of mentality in the future, I will just drink some brine and get over it!
  Some people say that a country is easy to change but its nature is hard to change. This is indeed the case.

Character is in your bones, innate.

Xu Ning's ability to get rid of his bad habits is already bad, and his character often follows people for a lifetime.

His arrogance wouldn't be a big deal if he was in a factory, but he would have to be careful if he was in the mountains.

Besides, everyone has some faults to one degree or another, and no one is perfect.

In the future, when he goes into the mountains, he should be more careful and always maintain a sense of awe for the deep mountains and old forests.

"Third brother, I'm so sorry for making you suffer with me."

Chai Bing was stunned, looked at Xu Ning's serious expression, waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Are you talking about this? If we can escape from the tiger's mouth, doesn't it still depend on you?"

"That's why I led you in. It's really up to me."

Li Fuqiang held the Song Mingzi torch, his nose was so cold that he was blinded by snot, "Brother, how many times have you said this all the way. It's up to you to play whatever you want. Huzi and I didn't stop you, and we even put the vat next to you. You are the eldest brother, and if you have to rely on someone, it must be me."

"Well, second brother, it's not your fault. It's not our fault."

Xu Ning raised his head and stepped forward, saying: "Hey, you will learn a lesson from the experience. Let's move forward quickly. No matter how heavy the snow is, we have to get out of the mountain first. When the snow becomes heavy, we will be trapped." Fengshanli.”

"Got it!"

Immediately, the four people walked forward quickly.

Wang Hu tilted his head and looked at Xu Ning, and said with a smile: "Second brother, do you feel that you have changed?"

"What changed?"

"Usually you won't admit your mistakes when things happen, let alone blame yourself. Look at this person again, I'm really touched by how much you blame yourself."

"Fuck, are you always so fucked up by me?"

"Hehe, this is what my dad said. Every time my dad educates you, you go in one ear and out the other. Even if you make a mistake, you won't admit it..."

Chai Bing turned around and said curiously: "No, I have been in contact with my brother for the past two days. He is very upright in everything he does. My dad and my eldest brother praise him a lot."

Xu Ning said with a smile: "The more I praise, the more I'll be ruined. Look, if I stay in Qing'an these days, and come back to Wangxing, I'll be complimented by everyone. What's the point of finishing the compliment? Isn't this almost going to happen!"

Wang Hu nodded: "Yeah, the day my second brother came back from the mountain to save my uncle, my aunt said that if my second brother doesn't praise me, don't let him praise me, otherwise he will be safe."

Xu Ning laughed when he heard this: "Haha... That's true. I don't deserve praise."

Li Fuqiang heard his brother laugh out loud, and the gloom just now was swept away, and he grinned his mouth that was red from the cold and said: "Hey, don't say that brother doesn't praise me, so do I! Ever since I went into the mountains with my brother When I'm playing around, I feel like I'm holding a monkey in the palm of my hand. It doesn't matter what happens in this mountain. As long as my brother is there to help me, I will dare to take care of him."

Xu Ning was stunned and asked: "Brother, do I have so much confidence in you?" "That's not good. You know what I was thinking when I saw you using a sledgehammer to dig into the front of the egg? Mader, I just thought that this brother seems to be the golden gun general in Water Margin who has been reincarnated, and he can be controlled to death by me in two moments!"

Wang Hu laughed: "Hahaha!"

Chai Bing was a little confused, "What are you doing? Are you using a sledgehammer to kill an egg?"

"Yeah, that's what happened..."

Immediately, Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu cooperated to tell the story of Xu Ning going up the mountain to save his father in this cold and dark mountain forest.

Chai Bing was startled when he heard this, and turned around to look at Xu Ning. He wanted to praise him, but Xu Ning just said that he didn't like compliments, so he stopped talking.

Although they were telling stories, the four of them hurried towards Mantou Mountain without slowing down.

It was nearly half past seven, and the four of them were already weak. Their legs were shaking, and their calves felt like they were filled with lead with every step they took.

And they were still hungry, because they hadn't eaten since lunch.

Therefore, Chai Bing took out the rice cake from his cloth pocket and the four of them ate while walking. No one had the energy to speak anymore.

Although this trough cake is a bit oily, it is more than 30 degrees below zero at this time, and the trough cake has already been frozen hard.

The incisors are biting the crumbs, and chewing them in the mouth is dry and blinding, and the throat is filled with tears.

It was around eight o'clock. The snow had stopped and it wasn't very thick.

Chai Bing held an ash willow tree in his waist and asked, "Should we be there soon?"

"We have already walked through the red pine forest. If we walk two or three miles further, we will reach Mantou Mountain. Third brother, how are you doing?"

Chai Bing shook his head and said with a grimace: "I have never run like this in any army. There was one time when I was taking the assessment of the leading soldier company. I ran forty miles with a heavy load that day. How far did we run today?"

Xu Ning finished the calculation in her mind and said, "How can we have eighty or ninety miles of land?"

"Holy shit, we walked so far?" Wang Hu said in shock.

"Including climbing over mountains and ridges, the straight-line distance is about sixty miles."

They entered the mountain in the morning and started running and taking them away. It is really not possible for ordinary people to run such a long distance for such a long time. Besides, there is still snow in the mountain and the road is even more difficult to walk.

"Brother, Huzi, how are you two doing?"

Li Fuqiang gritted his teeth and said, "Apart from the soreness of my calves and a little bit of hunger, there's nothing wrong with me. Let's go back! I just want to eat rice with pickled cabbage soup."

"Me too!"

Xu Ning nodded: "If we keep insisting, we will get home no matter what."

"Eh."

Immediately, the four people walked forward with heavy steps.

The pace is much slower than two hours ago, but every additional step brings more hope of going home to sit on the kangtang and eat pickled cabbage soup and rice!
  Just less than a hundred meters away, the four of them seemed to be hallucinating and heard someone shouting.

"Third brother..."

"Uncle Three!"

"Lao San!"

Chai Bing put his head forward and steadied himself, listening attentively.

The three people behind Xu Ning also stopped and looked up at the direction of the source of the sound.

Chai Bing turned and looked at Xu Ning, "I'm not a footman, am I?"

"No page boy! Someone did shout."

"Fuck, it's the old man who is worried about us because we haven't been back for a long time!" Chai Bing said, patting his legs.

Xu Ning nodded: "Take two steps quickly and you can see people over the mountain."

"alright!"

Then the four of them immediately became energetic, their calves and stomachs didn't feel sore or weak, and they couldn't even feel hunger.

They walked forward with long strides, and the sound got closer and closer. When they reached the top of the mountain, they saw a dozen fireflies shining brightly halfway up the mountain.

Some people held Song Mingzi torches, while others held flashlights to illuminate.

"Third brother..."

When Chai Bing heard the sound, he was overjoyed and shouted: "Liangzi! I'll leave it here!!"

Xu Ning stood next to him, while Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu shook their torches with smiles on their faces.

After Liang Zi heard the sound, he hurriedly looked towards the top of the mountain, then called to the people around him to run towards the mountain.

The four of Xu Ning also quickly went down the mountain, and it didn't take long for the two sides to meet.

Chai Bing asked: "Why are you here?"

"Didn't Luo Luo Xue Particles just now? My uncle is thinking about you, so he asked us to go up the mountain to find you."

Chai Bing was stunned, "Then let's go back, don't keep the old man waiting."

"Yeah, third brother. What happened to you on the mountain? How did it happen?"

Chai Bing shook his head and said, "Let's go back and talk."
