Chapter 7 Entering the Mountain

Going into the mountains, this is something Zhu Ping'an dreamed of. After returning to the east wing, Zhu Ping'an began to pester Zhu Shouyi to follow him into the mountain.

"You think it's fun to go into the mountains. There are black blind men who eat children there. Don't go there." Chen deliberately frightened Zhu Pingan and didn't want him to follow.

This child is really worrying. Jumping up and down in the village is enough to make people worry. Now it's all right, and I want to follow him into the mountains, so I don't want my old lady to have a peaceful life, right? Mrs. Chen felt more and more that it would be better to have a son but not a daughter. They were all like debt collectors. Not to mention mischievous, if she grew up and married a daughter-in-law and forgot her mother, she didn't know where to feel sad.

Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard Chen's threats, he really treated himself like a child.

"No, there are fat rabbits, pheasants, and delicious fruits in the mountains." Zhu Pingan stopped pestering Zhu Shouyi, and rushed to hug Chen's thigh for a while.

Zhu Ping'an knows who is in charge of the family. Although his father doesn't look at the big and the big, the big and the waist, but he is eaten by the Chen family. If the Chen family keeps silent, his father will not even dare to fart.

"You told him?" Chen stared at Zhu Shouyi with almond eyes.

Zhu Shouyi's face turned black with fright, and he shook his head again and again, but he didn't dare to make Mrs. Chen angry. Last time Mrs. Chen was angry, but she let herself sleep underground for more than a month without showing any good looks. Those more than a month were simply not human life , It's scary even thinking about it.

"Tomorrow you stay at home obediently, and I'll cook something delicious for you, and if you dare to go out, I'll smash your ass!" Mrs. Chen turned her gaze to Zhu Pingan, trying to coax and scare Zhu Pingan obediently to change her mind.

If Zhu Ping'an was really a five-year-old boy, he would have succumbed to Chen's intimidation, but unfortunately he is not.

"Mother, I want to follow my father into the mountains, and I want to find a delicious and filial mother." Zhu Pingan hugged Chen's thigh and did not let go, refusing to let go.

"Fart, don't use this trick to coax me!" Chen said angrily, he was so angry, this **** was only five years old and wanted to go into the mountains, and a rabbit could hit you somersault.

"I want to go into the mountains with my father!"

Zhu Ping'an gave full play to the child's reckless spirit, no matter how Chen's coaxing or scaring, Zhu Ping'an used this sentence to deal with it, and went into the mountains, into the mountains, into the mountains...

Chen became angry, turned Zhu Pingan over and pressed him on his lap, and slapped his buttocks.

Aw, I want to go into the mountains!

Zhu Ping'an was beaten up by Chen Shi, but he still insisted on going into the mountain.

Mrs. Chen looked at her youngest son, he was so angry that his tooth hurt, and he didn't hit you very hard, but he screamed like a butcher, you little bastard! Do you think it's fun to go into the mountains? I don't know what's going on in the mountains something.

"Mother, why don't you let Xiao Zhu follow, anyway, I'm just outside the mountain, so I don't go in, there's no danger." Zhu Shouyi whispered.

Chen stared at him, and Zhu Shouyi immediately lowered his head and remained silent.

However, in the end, Mrs. Chen nodded and agreed to Zhu Pingan to follow into the mountain under Zhu Ping's stalking, but she couldn't help but told a lot: don't run around, follow your father obediently; don't eat indiscriminately, your father said yes You can eat what you eat; don't try to catch rabbits...

Xiahe Village is at the foot of Woniushan Mountain. This Woniushan Mountain is not the modern Woniushan Mountain at the junction of Beijing and Hebei, but it is roughly located in Anhui and Hubei.

Wo Niu Mountain is shaped like a lying cow, so it is named Wo Niu Mountain. It lies in front of the dense forest of Cangshan Mountain, like an old giant ox. The stream merges into a clear stream at the bottom of the jaw, facing the mountains on the opposite side.

It is said that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Taishang Laojun, that is, Lao Tzu, rode a green bull and dragged a wooden cart out of Hangu Pass to preach and teach before he became a fairy. When Lao Tzu attained Taoism and became an immortal, he did not attain Taoism and ascend to heaven alone like Liu An, the king of Huainan in the later Han Wudi period. , sleepless until exhausted, lying on the ground with tears in his eyes, his body turned into mountains, tears turned into mountain streams and merged into clear streams...

This is the legend of Wo Niu Mountain passed down orally by the old people in Xiahe Village.

Three figures, one large, one large, one small, and one small, walked up from the low mountainous area outside Wo Niu Mountain. The sun shone through the layers of thick leaves and hit the three of them, leaving mottled shadows of minions and trees. The path overgrown with grass and shrubs is full of gravel, bushes and fallen leaves, and the footsteps step on it, rustling.

These three were Zhu Ping'an, his father Zhu Shouyi, and his elder brother Zhu Pingchuan. Both Zhu Shouyi and Zhu Pingchuan carried big baskets on their backs. In addition, Zhu Shouyi also wore a hatchet on his waist. In the Ming Dynasty, the control over cold weapons was looser. Bows, arrows, knives, and crossbows were all allowed to be owned by the people, but armor and firearms were strictly controlled. So Zhu Shouyi also brought a machete, because his family was not a full-time hunter, so he absolutely did not have a bow and crossbow. Zhu's father's level of hunting is just to catch some small animals, and he doesn't know anything about bending bows and shooting vultures.

As for Zhu Ping'an, he carried an extrsmall basket. Originally, Zhu Shouyi wouldn't let him carry it, but he insisted, so Zhu Shouyi followed him and made him an extrsmall basket overnight, and asked Mrs. Chen to say that Zhu Shouyi You can pamper him!

"Zhu Shouyi, listen to me carefully, if the two little ones lose a hair, I will tear you up when you come back!"

Chen's voice was still ringing in Zhu Shouyi's ears as he was about to leave the house. After taking a step ahead, he couldn't help but look back at the two little ones.

Zhu Ping'an carried a small basket on his short legs, and followed behind the two of them, beating his calves from time to time. Entering the mountain is really not something ordinary people can enter. The mountain road is bumpy and difficult to walk, and there are many twists and turns in the mountain forest. If you go further, you will have no way at all. You can only travel by memory. If you don't have experienced hunters, it's easy. get lost.

This is only the outer reaches of the mountains. If it is deep in the mountains, even experienced hunters would not dare to set foot alone. There are rumors that there are eye-catching tigers in the deep mountains.

"Hey, are you tired? I'll carry you on my back." Zhu Shouyi felt that it was not easy for his youngest son's short legs to walk here by himself, so he couldn't help but said when he turned around and saw Zhu Ping'an beating his legs again.

Zhu Pingan immediately shook his head, joking, if he lets me carry it now, after returning home, my mother will definitely not let me follow me into the mountain next time! I will definitely say, hum, it is difficult to go into the mountain, and I still want to go into the mountain Shan, wash up and sleep as soon as possible!

So, Zhu Ping'an resolutely refused for his future plan to enter the mountain. Besides, he also needed to exercise his small arms and legs. This was just an opportunity to exercise. I used to look at China on the tip of my tongue, and there are countless delicious food in the mountains. I entered Baoshan this time, and I couldn't return empty-handed because of being carried on my back.

Zhu Shouyi was a little surprised to see Zhu Ping'an's refusal, but he looked at Zhu Ping'an with admiration. This kid has a future.

"Second brother, put the pannier in my pannier first." Eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan also wanted to help Zhu Pingan lighten his burden.

"No big brother, I can do it." Zhu Pingan insisted on being independent, and nothing could stop a foodie from going to the mountains, let alone looking for something in the mountains that could improve the family's economy.

Seeing that Zhu Ping'an was determined, the two gave up, but slowed down appropriately when walking.
