Rebirth: Don't Be the Best

Treating guests to dinner requires good food. Zhang Shu thought about it for a while, and decided to go up the mountain to get something, and then go to the river to get some fish.He knew that Li Mujin's elder brother and father were hunters, and they usually looked relaxed hunting. Zhang Shu felt that this was feasible, so he carried a hatchet and went up the mountain with a basket on his back.

Li Muzhen's home was on the only way up the mountain. When Zhang Shu passed by his house, he peeped his head quietly. The courtyard door was not closed tightly. Li Muzhen was sitting in the courtyard, not knowing what he was doing.

He looked around and found that there was no one else in the yard, so he imitated the cuckoo's call twice, and the sound of "cuckoo cuckoo" really sounded like it.

Others would not understand, but to Li Mujin's ears it sounded like the sounds of nature. As soon as his eyes lit up, he looked towards the gate of the courtyard, and met Zhang Shu who was peeking at him.

He opened his mouth to call him, but Zhang Shu suddenly put his index finger on his mouth, looking very nervous.Li Mujin had some doubts, but he was still obedient and didn't make a sound.Walking lightly to the gate of the courtyard, Li Mujin bent over and asked softly, "Brother Dashu, what are you doing?"

"Jin'er, is your brother there?"

"Not here, what's the matter?"

"It's fine if you're not here." Zhang Shu heaved a sigh of relief.

Li Mujin laughed suddenly, "Brother Dashu, are you afraid of my brother?"

Zhang Shu touched his nose, "A little bit, your brother doesn't like me very much."

"He's like that. He doesn't like anyone. Two days ago, my aunt asked him to match a girl. His face was always dark. He almost scared the girl's mother to tears. When he got home, he pushed off the marriage with the matchmaker. You can't make me so angry." Li Mujin was talking about his brother's embarrassing story, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and Zhang Shu's eyes were agitated.

"Brother Dashu, did you come to play with me?" After Li Mujin finished speaking, she laughed a few times, seeing that Zhang Shu didn't smile or speak, but just looked at him fixedly, which made people feel quite embarrassed.

Zhang Shu shook his head, "I just passed by your house today, and came to say hello to you. I want to go hunting in the mountains, catch something, and invite Brother Wang to have a meal tomorrow."

"Hunting?" Li Mujin's eyes lit up, "I'll go too!"

"You can't go! It's too dangerous." Zhang Shu refused him straight away.

"What's the danger? My father and brother took me up the mountain since I was a child, and I even caught wild boars with them! Maybe I can help you!" Li Muzhen's lies came out of his mouth. In fact, he and When his brother asked, his brother always had a dark face, saying that the little brother is everywhere, and he has to follow him everywhere, which is really annoying.

But Zhang Shu believed his nonsense, "Jin'er, you are really good. I haven't gone hunting in the mountains yet, but I just saw that Uncle Li and Brother Li are so good, so I want to give it a try." In fact, if it doesn't work today If not, he still has to go to town tomorrow to buy some meat or something.

"Then you're right to take me there! I know how to hunt. What kind of pheasants and rabbits are a piece of cake in front of me." Li Muzhen's chest was high, and the confidence on his face was really deceptive. .

"But..." Zhang Shu still hesitated.

"What's the matter, just say whether you will take me or not!" Li Mujin looked at him with threats in his eyes.

"Okay, but you have to tell your grandma, and you can only go if he agrees."

"Okay." Li Mujin cheerfully responded, then rushed into the room, said something, and came out with a big backpack on her back.

"Let's go." The two walked up the mountain, drifting away with intimate laughter.

Amo Li laughed and cursed in the room, "Is it so happy to ask for a pig weed? What are you thinking all day long?"

Walking through the hills where people usually like to pick wild vegetables, the trees on both sides gradually grow taller, and there are only the sound of two people walking on the quiet mountain road, and occasionally two crisp birdsong.

Li Muqin and Zhang Shu talked all the way, and at this moment he also stopped. He coughed twice and cleared his throat, feeling a little uncomfortable.Seeing this, Zhang Shu took out a bamboo tube from the back basket and handed it to Li Mujin.

"Jin'er, drink some water." Just as Li Mujin was about to take it, he suddenly shrank back.

Li Muqin took the time to look at him unhappily, and asked him what he was doing with those big almond eyes.

A little blush appeared on Zhang Shu's not-so-white face, "I've already drank this, let's drink it after seeing if there is a mountain spring ahead."

Li Mujin said, "But I'm thirsty now, very thirsty!" He snatched the bamboo tube from Zhang Shu and said, "Didn't you eat that way when I was a child?"

Zhang Shu saw that his throat was hot, and he looked away unnaturally, so he ignored Li Mujin's red face that was as red as a monkey's butt after he took down the bamboo tube.

After the two walked for a while, they pretended to be nonchalant and started talking. The surrounding trees got taller and taller, and the originally wide path gradually narrowed due to the reduction of footprints. Originally, the two walked side by side. , gradually became one in front and one in back.

In the depths of the dense forest that no one has visited for a long time, there are traces of mushrooms everywhere, but because it has not rained for a long time, these mushrooms have all shriveled.

Angrily, Li Mujin threw down the few mushrooms in her hand, and looked okay, but the bottom was eaten up by bugs.

"Jin'er, don't be angry. I'll take you to pick mushrooms when it rains next time." No problems were encountered along the way, which made Zhang Shu more courageous.

"Well, brother Dashu is better!" Li Mujin was happy again.

The two of them shuttled through the bushes, with solemn expressions on their faces, their ears pricked up, and their eyes looked around, obviously looking for the figure of a small animal.

"Coo coo, coo coo." There were voices in the bushes ahead, and there were more than one voices.

Li Mujin's eyes sparkled, "Brother Dashu, it's pheasants, that's what they call!" His father and brother had caught them many times, so he didn't know how familiar they were with their calls.

"Well, I'll catch it, you wait here." Zhang Shu said in a low voice, then bowed and approached the bushes.

Before they got close, the pheasants heard a noise, and after a burst of noise, there were only a few feathers left in the bushes.

Zhang Shu looked surprised, obviously he is already very light, why is this so?

Li Muqin laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back. His big tree brother thought he was moving lightly, but in fact he had already stepped on the fallen leaves. The pheasant was actually very delicate, how could he not hear it?

Zhang Shu was embarrassed by his smile, but he was not angry, "Jin'er, if you find out later, you should catch it."

Li Muqin made a bitter face in a place Zhang Shu couldn't see, so don't touch the pheasant later...

Sure enough, they didn't find any more pheasants, but they saw a hare, which was squatting there grazing, but its ears were erected high, and it was very vigilant about its surroundings.

Zhang Shu looked at Li Mujin expectantly, hoping that he could show him something.Li Mujin laughed, and walked over with the knife in his hand. After all, he was a child of Orion, and his movements were better than Zhang Shu's, but the rabbit still ran away before he approached.

Li Mujin thought it was Zhang Shu's turn to laugh at him this time, but Zhang Shu didn't, and comforted him, "Jin'er is already very powerful, and the hare didn't realize it until I got so close."

Li Mujin looked at Zhang Shu with a smile, his eyes were full of love, "Brother Dashu, you are so kind."

The two looked at each other, and suddenly felt something running towards them. Zhang Shu looked back and saw a wild boar with long tusks running towards them, as if someone was chasing it.

In desperation, Zhang Shu pushed Li Mujin away with all his strength, and then chopped at the wild boar with a hatchet.The force was so strong that his tiger's mouth was shaking with blood.But the wild boar's back was also split open by him.

The wild boar suffered from the pain, the little pig's eyes turned red, and it ran towards the Zhang tree like a madman.Zhang Shu resisted with a hatchet, which happened to block the wild boar's tusks.Li Mujin, who was stunned after being pushed away, came back to her senses, and hurriedly picked up the hatchet and stabbed the wild boar from behind.

Zhang Shu's situation was relieved, because the wild boar turned around and ran towards Li Mujin again.The sharp fangs were already close at hand, and the stench from the wild boar's mouth seemed to be right next to the nose. Li Mujin's strength had been exhausted just now, but he did not cause any harm to the wild boar. He was trembling with fright, his eyes He stared very wide because of horror.

The scene he expected to be impaled by a wild boar did not happen. The wild boar, which was clearly close at hand, paved the ground angrily and let out bursts of roaring. Go one step further.

Zhang Shu's veins were exposed because of too much force, and his appearance was a little scary. He yelled at Li Muqin, "Hurry up to the tree!"

Li Mujin was tearful, but instead of climbing the tree, he picked up the hatchet on the ground and rushed towards the wild boar. He knew that once he climbed the tree, Zhang Shu would have no way out.

The wild boar's eyes and ears are more afraid of pain, so Li Muzhen took a hatchet and slashed at the wild boar's facade, using all the strength in his body.The wild boar wailed, and fell down unwillingly, but Li Mujin didn't realize it, and let the blood of the wild boar splash on his head and body.

Zhang Shu let go of the leg holding the wild boar, and looked at Li Mujin who was chopping meat like a knife, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.The dog in the previous life had been chasing Wang Cuilan all the time. When he went to rescue her, as long as she beat her a few more times with a stick, his leg would not be torn off alive.

Only at the moment of life and death can one recognize a person's sincerity.If Li Mujin left him today, he wouldn't blame him, but many years later, at Midnight Menghui, would he really be able to get along with him without any grievances?He can't say that well.
