The Siheyuan of the Young Educated Youth

Huo Sheng had just returned from the cafeteria after having dinner. When he arrived at his home, he found that the door was not locked. He hurried into the house.

Qi Feifei woke up immediately when she heard the door open.

But my arms were numb and my neck was sore, so I couldn't move smoothly for a while.

Before she could adjust herself, Huo Sheng came into the room.

Huo Sheng was very happy. He hadn't seen the little girl for many days!

As soon as I entered the room, I saw the little girl with her neck tilted, her arms held, with obvious marks on her face and half of her face pink.

Huo Sheng asked with a smile, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Qi Feifei looked outside and saw that the sun had already set.

Move your neck.

"what time is it?"

Huo Sheng looked at his watch. "It's seven-eight. You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll make you a bowl of noodles."

Qi Feifei quickly stopped him, "No, no, I have to leave right away."

Huo Sheng, "Don't worry, I'll take you home later. I don't drive at night now."

Qi Feifei, "Really, no need. I just want to ask you, last time you helped me deliver mushrooms to Yao Chunli, did she bring me any message?"

"She asked me to bring you some vermicelli. Wait for me to get it for you."

Then he turned and went into the inner room and took out the bag of vermicelli.

He picked up another package from the end of the kang. This is cooked leather. Do you like it?

Qi Feifei took the package, opened it and took out the leather. It was fluffy and very soft.

Huo Sheng, "Rabbit fur will be thicker and more beautiful in winter. I'll kill a rabbit in winter and give it to you when it's cooked."

Qi Feifei, "Okay, I'll take as many as you have."

Huo Sheng, "I have six rabbits and four pheasants in my cage. Do you want some?"

Qi Feifei, "What do you want to change? See if I have it."

Huo Sheng thought: I want to give them all to you, but he said: "Why not exchange them for some wild fruits from the mountain? The round dates I got last time were delicious, and the others are fine too, save them for the winter."

Qi Feifei was puzzled, how could you eat so much by yourself? Then he swallowed the words back and said, let others eat however they want, it’s none of his business.

"Okay, but next time I might have to wait until it snows before I can come. I'll bring you whatever I can find. If there are a lot of samples, I'll take some of each, okay?"

Huo Sheng: "Okay, a little bit of everything."

As agreed, Huo Sheng went to the yard and killed all the rabbits and pheasants.

Take the rabbit into the house and start skinning it.

Qi Feifei remembered what Sister Wang said about making a feather duster, so he brought all the pheasants in, found a basket, and started plucking the feathers.

"These beautiful feathers and chicken feathers can be used to make feather dusters. Keep them for the next time I come. These feathers cannot be dusted anymore. Can you help me put them away?"

Huo Sheng was naturally willing, "Okay, I'll wrap it up for you later with newspaper."

Qi Feifei smiled, "Thank you."

Huo Sheng looked at her and smiled, and it seemed as if a flower slowly bloomed in his heart!

"You're welcome, it's just a small thing."

The two of them finished quickly.

Rabbit skins and pheasant feathers remain.

Huo Sheng wanted to put the rabbit meat into a sack, but Qi Feifei disagreed and put it into Qi Feifei's backpack.

Huo Sheng put the pheasant into a sack and tied it together with the vermicelli sack.

"Let's go, I'll see you off."

Qi Feifei wanted to refuse.

Huo Sheng interrupted her.

"It's not the first day we've known each other. Even if we were strangers, I wouldn't let a girl walk through the mountains alone in the middle of the night. What kind of person would I be? That's too cold-blooded.

I'm the only one at home, so I'll let you stay and leave tomorrow.

Let's go! "

Qi Feifei was in a dilemma. If she went by herself, she could stay in a courtyard house and wouldn't have to climb the mountain late at night.

After thinking for a while, it was absolutely not possible to stay at Huo Sheng's house. We were a man and a woman alone, and we didn't have a letter of introduction to stay at a guesthouse, nor did we have a suitable reason to say that we could leave alone.

Oh! All right!

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!"

Huo Sheng smiled and said, "Don't be polite, we are friends now."

The two men took their belongings, turned off the lights, and locked the door.

When they reached the mountain path, Qi Feifei let Doubao out and whistled.

Doubao walked out steadily from behind the tree and went to the front to explore the way.

It no longer ran and jumped like usual, its tail wagged like a rattle, and it always stuck to Qi Feifei.

It seemed to have grown up all of a sudden, with a cold light in its eyes, ears erect, tail hanging low, alert and serious.

Huo Sheng was surprised!

For the first time in his career, he hadn't noticed a dog was nearby.

This girl always has surprises for him.

This dog is not big, but it looks extraordinary, which makes people trust it.

Huo Sheng followed behind with a flashlight to light the way for Qi Feifei.

Qi Feifei wanted to say that she could see the road without taking a photo, but she held it back because she didn't want people to think she was too different.

The two people didn't speak and walked forward silently.

The further you go in, the deeper it feels. The thin moonlight is scattered in the woods, and there are occasional strange bird calls.

Occasionally a bird was startled and flew into the sky.

Qi Feifei tried his best to calm down, stay alert, and observe his surroundings 360 degrees.

Huo Sheng gave the flashlight to Qi Feifei and asked her to light the way by herself. He quietly grasped the dagger in his hand.

With his many years of combat and wilderness survival experience, he knew there were dangers all around.

Qi Feifei also felt that someone was staring at him.

But Doubao never gave any warning.

The two people and the dog moved forward quietly and at a constant speed.

Suddenly, the sound of fighting was heard several hundred meters away.

Qi Feifei and Huo Sheng stopped at the same time.

Hear the howls of wolves and the threatening "whoosh" of lynxes.

Doubao made a "Woo~Woo~Woo~" sound and was eager to try.

Qi Feifei didn't understand the situation and didn't dare to let it go.

"Let's go quickly."

Qi Feifei grabbed Huo Sheng's wrist and ran forward quickly. She thought it would be best if she could run away, but if not, she would drag him into the courtyard.

Doubao didn't get the order to join the battle, so he had to run forward obediently.

Over there, there were constant shouts of threats and sounds of fighting.

There seemed to be two wolves and a lynx.

Qi Feifei was very worried. If they all came out to look for food, they would probably attack him. They would not confront a strong enemy before catching the prey.

This lynx is most likely the mother lynx protecting her.

It’s all Huo Sheng’s fault for insisting on sending her off. He meant well but ended up with a bad result.

But there was no point in blaming them. Now they had to find a way to escape quickly. As long as they escaped, the mother lynx could climb up a tree to avoid the wolves.

The best way was to enter the courtyard, but she didn't dare to take the risk.

If Huo Sheng knew about this, he would probably think she was a monster.

Qi Feifei was just struggling when a shrill wolf howl was heard over there. It seemed that a wolf was seriously injured.

Qi Feifei felt relieved.

But she still didn't dare to relax and continued to run forward.

The sound of fighting over there was quiet for a moment, and then became more intense.

There were constant sounds of branches breaking, biting, and howling.

There were also wolf howls in the distance.

Qi Feifei's heart suddenly tightened.

"Let's go up the tree."

He threw handfuls of bean buns into the backpack and quickly climbed up the tree.
