Chapter 35 Uphill

"Boy, are you busy?"

In the evening, just as Wang Meng sent off the villagers who came to help build the house, Uncle Liu from the same village walked over with his horoscope.

"Uncle Liu, why are you here? What's the matter?" Wang Meng put down the tools he was packing up, ran over with a light smile, and opened the courtyard door for him.

"The autumn harvest is coming soon, and the disasters on the mountain are almost unstoppable. As usual, every household in our village has to go hunting on the mountain. But you..." Uncle Liu hesitated for a moment, and said with a look of embarrassment on his face, " It stands to reason that you should not have been notified of this hunt, but I heard that you are going to settle in Wangshan Village in the future? Do you think you will start next year or..."

"Yes, I want to settle down. Look, my house is almost finished. As for hunting, since the whole village has gone, I can't be left alone. Mr. Liu, thank you for letting me know this time. Otherwise, I really don't know. By the way, when do you plan to go? I will definitely go then."

"Haha... I'll just wait for your words!" Uncle Liu was very satisfied with him when he heard this young man speak so bluntly and openly, he laughed and patted him on the shoulder, "You are a good young man .Come on, you pack up these two days, and we will gather at the village head early in the morning the day after tomorrow..."

After sending Uncle Liu away, Wang Meng tidied up the messy tools and some sundries in the yard, locked the gate of the yard, and went back to An's house.Although he has started to build a house now, it is still far from being able to live here. According to An's father, he will be alone after the house is built, and even eating is a problem. The relationship between the two families is still so close. When he and An Yi It would be too late to move out on the eve of the wedding.

During the meal, Wang Meng hadn't had time to tell the An family that he was going to hunt in the mountains with the villagers, but the An family had a dispute over the quota.

"Father, let me go. I'm already this old, so it's time to help your family. Besides, when other people's children are this old, they can already do the job. I'm already this old. You have to go to do the hard work, this is not to let the villagers poke my back." Anda argues, he is twenty-one, and the kid from Cheng's family in the village has followed him up the mountain at the age of 17, so let the elderly father It's frustrating to think about it all the time.

"Are you going? Where are you going! You are due to get married in a few days. If your face is stained, how can you get married?" Father An slapped his chopsticks on the table angrily, "Your father, I will still be married." If you really want to go, next year, next year your wife will marry, and maybe you will have a child. If you don’t want to go by then, I will force you You go. Now, don't even think about it!"

"What your father said is right, Boss. It's less than half a month before you get married. If you really hurt something, it won't heal until the wedding. It's unlucky. This is about your life. Don't dare to delay." Mrs. Zhou also persuaded her earnestly.

The most important thing is that she is even more afraid of her son's lack of experience, and some accidents will happen. At that time, it is hard to say whether her son will come back alive, let alone marriage.Although Lao An is older, it is quite worrying, but he has a lot of experience in going up the mountain over the years. Compared with her son, her man has a better chance of coming back...

"But, it's because of this that I should go all the more. I'm about to get married, I'm an adult, how can I still hide behind my father?"

"What kind of adult, you, just like you, you treat yourself as an adult before your hair grows?"

"Ada, just listen to your father, anyway, it's not bad this time, isn't it? Don't make money with your father, go, let's talk about it next year..."

However, no matter how hard An Da tried to argue and how stubbornly he protested, An's father, Mrs. Zhou, made up his mind to sing a bad face and a bad face, but refused to agree to death. He had no choice but to look at his brother for help, hoping that he could help him a handful.

"Actually, father, mother, brother, I didn't dare to say it in the past, but going up the mountain this year is really not as dangerous as you think." An Yi received Anda's help-seeking look, rolled his eyes and smiled.

"How do you say it?" Anda thought that his younger brother had some way to make his wish come true, and stared at him with piercing eyes.

"Don't ask me about this, Nuo, ask him." An Yi pressed her lips to her side.

he?

Following An Yi's gesture, the three of them looked at Wang Meng in bewilderment.

Wang Meng: "..."

Wang Meng's tense body finally relaxed, and smiled at An Yi: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you."

"Hmm~" An Yi shrugged, gave him a mouthful of big white teeth, and continued to eat his own food.Since everyone is not in the mood to eat, then...

"Mengzi, what's going on? What does Ayi mean by that?" Is there any other way to keep their family safe?Zhou couldn't help thinking about it, her heart beat faster, and her eyes became even hotter when she looked at Wang Meng.

"Auntie, it's like this. Uncle Liu from the village came to see me just before I came back, and I will also participate in the mountain hunt this time." With three pairs of eyes staring at him, Wang Meng remained calm and said in a flat tone.

"You're going too?!" "You're going too?!" "How can you go?!" The three of them almost spoke in unison, and even the expressions on their faces were stunned.If this is An Yi's so-called surprise, then they can only feel surprise now, without any joy.

"I...can't go?" Wang Meng was taken aback by the reaction of the three, and unconsciously touched the back of his head with his thick palm.

"Of course not!" Anda, who is not good at raising energy, took the lead with a firm face and said firmly, "Although hunting is for the sake of the village and everyone should be responsible, it is a very risky thing after all. Can you not go? , why do you have to jump in by yourself?"

When several people were arguing endlessly about Wang Meng's going up the mountain, An Yi's eyes, which had been planned for a long time, vaguely glanced at the plate of greasy elbow meat. After rubbing it, he quietly stretched out his devil's claws...

There was a sound of "snap", the chopsticks were knocked off, and the large piece of meat with bright color and charming taste just picked up fell back onto the plate under his longing eyes...

"You—!" An Yi glared angrily.How did this person react so quickly?Didn't you just talk to your parents and brother?

"Good boy, when you get better, you can eat whatever you want." Wang Meng touched his head, his voice was soft, coaxing him like a child, then he raised his head and said to Father An and the others, "Auntie, uncle , You don’t know, I practiced martial arts since I was a child, and I know some boxing skills, let alone protecting myself, it’s no problem to protect a few more people.”

"Yes, yes, he almost became a general~~." Feeling that he was underestimated, An Yi impatiently peeled off someone's demon's hand, his tone was neither yin nor yang, and the irony was obvious.

"Ayi! What are you talking about!" Zhou gave him an angry look, and smiled awkwardly at Wang Meng, "Don't worry about it, Mengzi. He just speaks so carelessly, and he actually has no bad intentions."

"It's okay, auntie, I know." Wang Meng smiled nonchalantly, remembering the feeling of his hand before, couldn't help touching it again, "And he was right."

Three members of the An family: "..."

After the meal, Wang Meng performed a set of simple sword techniques in front of everyone, which convinced them that he really knows martial arts, the kind with high kung fu, and not just a stupid force, which is forced Agreed to let Anda follow to increase his knowledge.After all, An's father has been able to do farm work in recent years, but hunting in the mountains is really difficult.

Soon, two days passed, and on the morning of the third day, Wang Meng, dressed in a simple and capable black exercise suit, held an ax for cutting mountains in his hand, a sickle on his back, and a machete around his waist. Putting on a dagger, he set off with Anda who was also equipped with the same equipment.

When we arrived at the appointed place, there were already many people waiting there. Although Wang Meng was still a stranger, many people present had heard of him, but few had seen him, because Anda was with him, and the big guys were very concerned about him. Identity can be regarded as tacit understanding.

"Now that everyone is here, let's go?" Uncle Liu, the leader, saw that everyone was chatting lively, but when they came, they felt a little awkward, and felt a little uncomfortable. After all, he was the one who invited them, so he Pretending to cough for two lifetimes, he proposed to set off.

Wangshan Village is a big village with at least a hundred households in the village. Since each household produces one person, the number of people at the scene is quite large.Such a large group of people, from Wuyang Wuyang, if they act together, not only will the goal be great, but the result will be half the effort. Therefore, the five most experienced old hunters in the village who are in charge of hunting let everyone freely find themselves or familiar leaders. The old hunters went up the mountain by themselves one by one.

Both Wang Meng and Anda saw hunting for the first time. How could they know that the hunter had enough experience? Wang Meng was simply bold and skilled, and An Da blindly trusted him, so the two discussed and found the most familiar Uncle Liu.

This Uncle Liu is also an old hunter who has been hunting all his life in the village. He is humorous and loyal.So, after everyone selected a team and set out on the road, after a while, An got to know Wang Meng well and found out that their team had seven or eight more people than other teams, and most of them were inexperienced young men. The total number of people who have actually participated in the hunt is less than five.

Wang Meng: "..."

Wang Meng doesn't care much about his prey now, he just hopes that there won't be any accidents along the way...
