Chapter 45: Two Silly Roes

It turned out that Ye Yu not only did not quarrel with the Wang family, but also got along very "harmoniously" with them.

Wang Laosan's wife treated Ye Yu warmly with warm water with sugar, and Wang Laoer's wife also brought snacks such as melon seeds, peanuts, chestnuts, and dried grapes from the house.

A few little ones were sucking their fingers and staring eagerly, but were pulled aside by their great-grandfather and grandfather to play.

Wang Lao Er and Wang Lao San went to the kitchen to cook for the guests. Even though there was no meat, they still had white flour, so they cooked a big pot of noodles and beat two eggs. Fearing that the guests would not be full, they also cooked a lot of extra corn.

Is it true that there is no red snow?

Or is it really snowing?

The villagers who were watching the show wiped their eyes. Ye Yu really didn't have a fight with Wang Lao Er and Wang Lao San. They wiped their eyes again. How could they get along so well?

If Wang Lao Er hadn't been limping and Wang Lao San hadn't been so obviously angry, they might have really pretended that nothing had happened.

But what happened?

It's itchy!

Unfortunately, Wang Laoer's family has few neighbors, and due to Ye Yu's fighting ability, they did not approach at first. Now only Ye Yu and the Wang family know the truth, and neither side is willing to find out the truth.

Ye Yu not only ate snacks by himself, but also called out to others: "Captain, you're here just in time. Uncle Wang and Uncle Wang are busy cooking. Why don't you stay and eat with us?"

The former village chief's mouth twitched, but he did not refute. He even nodded, and the voice squeezed out from between his teeth: "Zhiming, let's eat together, let's eat together."

The captain finally understood that Ye Zhiqing had caught the Wang family with something on their hands. For him, as long as they didn't cause any big fight, he would just ignore everything else involving the Wang family. But as for staying for dinner, this was a good suggestion.

The Wang family was stunned. They had argued with the captain many times since he retired and took over, and they were still unwilling to accept the result. They only wanted to remove Zhang Zhiming from the position of captain, and never thought of inviting him to their home.

How can he be so shameless?

Ye Yu glanced at the captain who was always serious but occasionally timid and eye-catching. She thought that he was quite sensible. However, he could eat the meal but he couldn't compete with her for snacks.

“…”

Where to move?

Is he short of your melon seeds and peanuts? This glance made the captain speechless.

Some of the onlookers were brave enough to stir up trouble, asking: "Don't forget us when the village master treats you to a meal."

The former village chief and the former village chief glared at them and said, "Eat, eat, eat, you big-headed ghost. You really have the whole village coming to your house to eat and drink for free. How are you going to live?"

The crowd eventually dispersed, and the only guests left were the team leader and Ye Zhiqing.

Wang Jiabei’s dinner was not all rich, but the quantity was large, and Wang Laoer and Wang Laosan’s cooking skills were also acceptable.

Ye Yu ate with his mouth wide open and enjoyed the meal with great relish.

The former village chief and his family's eyelids were twitching from eating so much. They looked like starving ghosts reincarnated. Their whole family combined couldn't eat as much as she did. Her appetite wasn't necessarily too large. The former village chief covered his chest with his hands and said he felt extremely uncomfortable.

The team leader was not that thick-skinned to begin with, but under Ye Yu's lead, who ate corn and vegetables and drank soup in big mouthfuls, he unknowingly ate more than usual.

“…Ahem.”

He touched his nose awkwardly.

The captain stayed at Wang's house to have this meal, first of all because he hated the Wang family.

The Wang family had set so many traps for him over the past year. Although he had retaliated, as a captain who had not yet established himself, he could not avoid suffering some losses. Now that the rare opportunity to take advantage of the situation and take revenge was right in front of him, how could he bear to miss it?

The second reason is for Ye Yu.

The team leader knew that people live off the land, and every household in the village went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and chop firewood. Except during the canteen period, no one handed over the pheasants and rabbits they picked to the production team. He admired Ye Yu's ability to hunt and feed himself.

But the human heart is the most unpredictable.

The educated youth eat meat every day, which is not a problem for a dozen days or a month, but over time, there will definitely be more and more people in the village who are jealous.

What are you looking at!

I'm talking about you, Wang Lao Er and Wang Lao San!

The captain touched his round belly. He really couldn't eat any more. He drank some warm boiled water and put the bowl down. His suggestion was to let Ye Yu and the others take it easy.

Ye Yu could handle one or two of them, but a village chief with seven or eight out of ten people would be enough... there is power in numbers, which is also the reason why it is difficult for outsiders to survive in the countryside.

Ye Yu was thoughtful. She certainly would not choose to suffer for her stomach, nor did she want to take it easy. The only way... was it, but think about it -

"Why!"

Sigh.

"Thank you for the reminder, Captain." Ye Yu walked away with the captain, holding up an enamel cup filled with sugar water.

She has the heroic spirit of a woman of the world.

This made the captain recall the days when he and his comrades were full of vigor and vitality in the army. He smiled and sighed: "It's good to understand. You educated youth have read a lot and have a bright mind. You can understand everything quickly."

A joyful reception.

However, the only ones who were having a great time were Ye Yu and the captain, while the Wang family was very angry.

When they returned to the educated youth center, Hua Feifei, Han Jing, Xu Fei and others also gathered around them, chattering. Although Ye Yu was very powerful, they were still afraid that she would suffer a loss.

If Ye Yu had not informed them in advance, by the time they got the information, Ye Yu had already dealt with the Wang family. They would definitely not let her go alone.

After all, every time Ye Yu ate meat, he would give them half a spoonful of soup, and there was a possibility of exchanging more soup and meat.

As for Ye Yu's decision to act alone, Hua Feifei, Han Jing and Xu Fei all disagreed, so Hua Feifei and Xu Fei teamed up to push Han Jing out.

Han Jing spoke loudly:

"You are wrong!"

"We are a team, we share the good and the bad, and we can help."

"Are you tired from working today?" Ye Yu looked down and examined his calves.

“…”

"But this is not a question of whether we are tired or not," Xu Fei brought the subject back. "We hope that when we encounter difficulties, we can also contribute to the cause."

Hua Feifei:

"Yeah, me too."

"oh."

Ye Yu responded but did not promise. In fact, she already had a plan to deal with the problem raised by the captain. Why should she take them there?

Watch, applaud and enjoy the feast?

Xu Fei vaguely sensed the trap behind these words, but there were two naive teammates who were already clapping and cheering. After meeting Ye Yu's gaze, he also became silent.

Okay, okay, let's leave it at that for now. Ye Zhiqing is easy to talk to on other matters, but he is quite stubborn on matters of principle. It's good enough that we can discuss this now.

Late at night that day, Ye Yu once again changed into dark clothes that could perfectly blend into the night, and got ready.

"Store food."

"grumble."

When the sparrow heard her name, it immediately flapped its wings and flew over and landed on her shoulder.

Ye Yu teleported through space and appeared with Sparrow a few dozen meters away from the educated youth point.

Less than two seconds after landing, he teleported four or five times in succession and finally arrived at the foot of Nanshan Mountain.

Yes, Nanshan.

As the weather got colder, fewer and fewer animals came out of the mountains. Dongshan and Xishan were no longer suitable as hunting grounds. Most of Ye Yu's prey came from Nanshan.

Many villagers have guesses, but the living motto passed down from generation to generation has been deeply rooted in people's minds: "There are bamboo forests on the west mountain, mushrooms on the east mountain, and wild boars over the south mountain." Unless they are faced with extreme situations of starving to death, they generally will not go to the South Mountain to hunt.

Especially now it’s winter!

If you are not careful, even if you don't encounter poisonous snakes or wild animals, you may freeze to death in the mountains.

It's a pity that Ye Zhiqing is so bold. If he lived in ancient times, he would probably be a general. At this time, they no longer consider whether he is a girl or a boy.

Ye Yu climbed more than ten meters toward the south mountain, and then teleported in the shadow of a tree.

The target is the first hunting pit.

In the end times, most people avoid mutants, and with the mutants' strength, they will not fall into ordinary traps, so Ye Yu is not very good at ambush hunting.

The current hunting pits were learned from the villagers. Whether it is the pits, the traps, or the signs to prevent people from accidentally entering, there are many practical tutorials in Dongshan and Xishan.

A little more improvement.

The locations of traps are also constantly being improved. They are now set near animal feces and nests. If they are no longer found, they can be set near eaten plants.

Ye Yu felt that he must have a good talent. In such a cold winter month, there would always be one or two prey in the four or five pits, and sometimes even more.

There were two silly roe deer in the second pit today.

Roe deer are mainly distributed in the northeast, northwest, central and southwest regions of Ye country, especially in the northeast. The number of Yanshan roe deer is not large.

And because this creature is indeed a bit stupid, compared to hares, it is as easy to catch as pheasants. They have long been extinct in East Mountain and West Mountain, and there are not many in South Mountain either. You have to cross South Mountain to catch them. These one or two must have gotten lost.

Roe deer is also a good thing. Not only can it be used to make oil, it can also be braised, stir-fried, deep-fried, or roasted. The roe deer meat can also be used to make white flour dumplings, or made into jerky for storage.

Ye Yu put the two silly roe deer into the space, and the sparrow chirped twice when it found that the roe deer were missing. This guy was a little kid, but he was very brave, otherwise he would not have been so attracted to the fire by the scent of roasted alien beast that night.

Continue to the next goal.

Spatial teleportation is really a very useful skill. In less than ten minutes, Ye Yu had visited nearly twenty hunting spots in Nanshan. Except for two prey, one big and one small, that were caught by mistake, the remaining seven or eight prey were all collected in the space.

In addition to searching for new suitable trap sites, I would take a look around every night to help digestion.

Finally, teleport to the top of Nanshan Mountain.

There is only one house on the entire upper slope of Nanshan Mountain, which is where the forest rangers live.

Three mud houses are connected in a row, forming a small courtyard. At the door stands a big banyan tree, which has grown so tall that it almost blocks out the sun. The forest ranger does not raise chickens or farm, and he rarely interacts with the villagers. He is a bit like a lonely hermit.

Ye Yu also didn't know the forest ranger's specific name, he only knew that his surname was Wang, and the villagers called him the forest ranger or Uncle Wang. He was a local of Wangjiagou, and had a few □□ inherited from his ancestors who had killed little ghosts.
