A brother told him that someone was doing something sneaky there, so they rushed over without thinking anything. They would fight to the death with anyone who tried to touch their medicinal herbs.
But the thief who stole the herbs turned out to be Brother Ren. Why didn't he tell them that Brother Ren was coming? And he even came here secretly to dig up the herbs. Isn't this another test for them?
They dug up all the medicinal herbs and then said they didn't grow them well. Liuzi and the others looked at Ren Jingxiao with an expression that said, "We see through you."
"What are you looking at? I just don't want to disturb your rest. I plan to dig up these herbs and prepare them so that you can plant the second batch."
Ren Jingxiao looked at their suspicious faces and wondered what they were thinking.
"Brother Ren, let us help you dig together?" Liuzi and his friends thought that they must have misunderstood Brother Ren.
Several people squatted down and dug up all the medicinal herbs on the ground together in the moonlight.
They felt a little reluctant when digging. They really treated these medicinal herbs as their own children. Now that they were all dug up, they felt very sad.
"By the way, the New Year is coming soon. I brought you some things so you can have a good year. Go get the things so I can put the herbs in the bag later."
When Ren Jingxiao came, Ningxia told him that it was not easy for these people to help him grow medicinal herbs, and if he was more kind, these people would be more loyal to him.
Although he didn't need these people to be completely devoted to him, he was indeed very satisfied with their performance recently, and he didn't stop Ningxia from preparing things.
Liuzi and the others looked at Ren Jingxiao, and became excited when they understood what he meant. Is this a reward for them?
Looking at the pockets over there, several people happily opened them. There were some cakes and canned food they had never seen before, as well as a bag of food, this time some white flour.
Although it was not high-quality white flour, it was second-rate. They had never eaten white flour before, so it was a rare opportunity to fill their stomachs.
"Brother Ren, are these all for us?" Liuzi and his friends were very surprised. They had never thought of these things even in their dreams, let alone celebrating the New Year.
"Yes, you have worked hard during this period. The New Year is coming soon. I always do my best to be kind to my own people."
Ren Jingxiao thought that Ningxia had prepared everything, so he said it in a nice way.
"Brother Ren, don't worry. We will definitely grow these medicinal herbs well and take good care of them."
Liuzi and the others were very touched. They thought that as long as they followed Brother Ren, they would be fine in the future.
Several people packed up their things and then carefully helped Ren Jingxiao dig the herbs.
Maybe because they have lived in this mountain for a long time, they saw more wild animals than people, and they didn’t care about the cannons on the side at all.
They are no longer nervous when they see wolves. As long as they don't provoke them, they seem to be able to live in peace with those animals.
We have enough food and drink. Could life be better than this?
With their help, Ren Jingxiao quickly dug up all the medicinal herbs. He put them in his pocket and prepared to transport them back along with the cannon.
"By the way, you guys wait here for a moment, I'm going to get something." Ren Jingxiao wanted wood, but he couldn't tell which wood was good and which was bad in the mountains here, and the wood was all wet under the drizzling snow.
He remembered that the Black Mountain Brigade still had some wood that he had cut from the mountains before, which was left to waste by those people. He thought it would be perfect to take some back to fix the door.
Ren Jingxiao went to the Black Mountain Brigade alone. He hadn't been back here for several months and felt very unfamiliar with the place.
He walked around and was confused about the location of the brigade headquarters. When he finally found it, he remembered that he didn't have the key.
He didn't want to go to the captain and say something nonsense. Looking at the door lock, he remembered what Uncle Kun taught him, so he pried the lock open and went in to choose the largest piece of wood.
When he left, everything returned to its original state. I guess these people couldn't even notice he was here.
Even if they found out, they wouldn't know it was him who took it. Besides, he had cut down these pieces of wood in the mountains, so it wouldn't be excessive for him to use one or two.
Liuzi and his friends waited here for a while and saw Ren Jingxiao coming over carrying a piece of wood.
At first glance you can tell that this piece of wood is quite old. Not only is it very dry, but it is also obviously good wood.
"Brother Ren, where are you from?" Liuzi wondered how many families Brother Ren had settled on this mountain. How come he had everything?
"I saved it before. I'll go back first." Ren Jingxiao watched Dapao disappear into thin air. With a whistle, Dapao came running over in a moment.
Ren Jingxiao saw the cannon's high-spirited look and knew that it had just gone to patrol its territory.
Ren Jingxiao asked Dapao to carry the medicinal herbs, and he carried the wood and rushed home together.
Before leaving, I left them a packet of seeds, which I got from Uncle Hu last time.
Uncle Hu himself didn't know what it was, so he said it was medicinal seeds that he found while cleaning up. He didn't know what kind it was, so Ren Jingxiao gave all the seeds he could get to Liuzi and others.
"Let's wait until after the New Year to plant. I'm going hunting in a couple of days. You can come with me then. Let's hunt something good and have a good New Year first."
Ren Jingxiao thought that the excavation had just been completed, and these people had been on edge for a while. They should take advantage of this time to rest up and get back to work after the New Year.
When several people heard that Ren Jingxiao was coming to hunt, they were very happy.
Ningxia was still awake when Ren Jingxiao got home. She thought Ren Jingxiao would be back very late.
I thought about going to sleep first, but I couldn’t fall asleep even after counting the sheep several times. While I was waiting, Ren Jingxiao came back.
"Xia Xia, are you still awake?" Ren Jingxiao moved a little quietly when he got home. When he saw Ning Xia coming out of the house, he realized that she had not slept at all.
"I can't sleep. Have you finished digging the herbs?" Ningxia came out wrapped in a military coat and saw Ren Jingxiao put down the things he was carrying.
He turned around and took the things off the cannon's back.
"Is it cold? Liuzi and I dug this together. I even went to the Black Mountain Brigade to get a piece of wood. I plan to reinforce the door later."
"It's getting late. Let's talk about it tomorrow. Let's go to bed first." Ren Jingxiao fetched some water and washed his hands and feet.
I planned to sleep with Ningxia first. It was almost ten o'clock now. In the past, Ningxia would have fallen asleep by now.
He thought she couldn't sleep because he was not with her, so he put the herbs aside and decided to wait until tomorrow!
宁夏的确有些困了，听了他的话点了点头，有任京宵在身边，宁夏很快进入了梦乡。
任京宵抱着宁夏想着明天该去打猎了。
