"Sorry, are you starving? Hey!" Zhang Guodong was a terrible dad, but unfortunately the animals couldn't protest, otherwise they would definitely accuse him of animal abuse.
She shook the bottle while talking to the little ones, regardless of whether they could understand her.
Once the milk powder is evenly mixed, add a spoonful of "space water" and the temperature is just right. Feed them quickly, otherwise their cries sound a bit aggrieved.
Humanized now? Ha!
As soon as the bottle was picked up, the little ones immediately started sucking hard, even squinting their eyes in enjoyment.
Seeing that the little ones didn't need his help holding the bottles, Zhang Guodong immediately began transplanting the medicinal herbs.
With the existence of Peach Blossom Spring, and the presence of a precious medicinal herb of unknown name and two young wild ginseng plants, Zhang Guodong felt more confident about transplanting these three herbs. He found a spot in a corner, dug three small pits, and carefully took out the herbs, planting them in the pits along with the soil. Finally, he watered them with some pond water.
This is really amateurish.
However, Zhang Guodong still believed in the magic of Taoyuan, only wondering how much it would enhance the effects on such a precious medicinal herb as ginseng. He was very much looking forward to it!
The two little ones were eating heartily when Zhang Guodong realized he was hungry too. He had eaten about 80% full that afternoon, and after exercising again, his appetite had been stimulated.
But recalling the beautiful woman who had just been beneath him, Zhang Guodong felt a surge of pleasure, yet also a tingling sensation on his scalp.
How should they face this? In this respect, Zhang Guodong appeared inexperienced and naive. A virgin, long deprived of pleasure, and a young man in the prime of his life, were unexpectedly brought together by these circumstances.
While Zhang Guodong was in a state of chaos, he was thinking that whether he stuck his neck out or not, he would be killed anyway, which made him seem tragic and heroic, like a martyr going to his death.
There were roasted chickens in Taoyuan that Zhang Guodong had bought on his way there. He took out two chickens, along with a bottle of Jiannanchun liquor, and left Taoyuan.
The cabin was quiet at the moment, with only the occasional crackling of firewood.
Hearing that there seemed to be no movement outside, Zhang Guodong reluctantly left the tent, glanced at the two tents, and then sat down by the fire with a sigh of relief.
Opening the bottle released a rich aroma of wine; a sip of wine on this night felt warm and comforting. A chicken carcass, lined with parchment paper, was placed over the fire and turned constantly. Soon, butter dripped from the chicken, and as it burned, the flames intensified. The aroma began to spread far and wide.
Compared to those bread rolls that looked like water bubbles and you couldn't feel full even if you swallowed them whole, Zhang Guodong was glad that he had bought a roast chicken to take with him.
Soon, the roast chicken heated up, and it looked as if it had been roasted again inside and out, tender and crispy, which would make it very delicious. Zhang Guodong couldn't wait to take a bite.
They were engrossed in eating and drinking, completely unaware that Li Yun's tent zipper was also open, and Li Yun crawled out with a disgruntled look. She was actually awake; Zhang Guodong froze, his hand still gripping a chicken wing.
Li Yun sat down irritably, took the chicken next to her, and started roasting it herself without asking Zhang Guodong's permission.
After chewing for a couple of bites, Zhang Guodong asked softly, "You're not asleep?"
"Just woke up!" Li Yun said irritably.
"Oh!" Zhang Guodong's heart was pounding, but he pretended to be fine, took another sip of wine, and then launched a new offensive against the roast chicken.
"Where did you get the food?" Li Yun asked, muttering, when Zhang Guodong remained silent.
"I bought them on the way here, I bought a few!" Zhang Guodong answered and then shut up.
"Let me try some wine!" Li Yun reached out to Zhang Guodong, asking for a drink.
What should we do? Judging from Li Yun's condition, it seems like she's trying to drown her sorrows in alcohol. Zhang Guodong instinctively felt he couldn't give it to her. Once a woman starts drinking, things get complicated.
"It doesn't taste good, maybe you shouldn't drink it?" Zhang Guodong advised. "Or, how about something else to drink? I still have a bottle of Coke!"
Li Yun suddenly exploded, "Enough with the nonsense, give it to me!"
The noise was a bit loud, and there was some movement in Xiang Chunyan's tent. Zhang Guodong wanted to run away. But where could he run to? He was just acting out of a guilty conscience.
"Then drink less—" Zhang Guodong had no choice but to hand over the bottle. Li Yun picked it up and started chugging, staring at Zhang Guodong in disbelief. She was really strong. But soon, Li Yun spat the wine she had just drunk into the fire with a pfft. The flames rose three feet high, and a strong aroma of wine filled the entire wooden house.
"What kind of wine is this? It tastes awful! It's so spicy!" Li Yun was so upset that tears were almost welling up in her eyes. She stuck out her little tongue and fanned herself. "You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Zhang Guodong was about to laugh when Li Yun suddenly started causing trouble for him, so he chuckled awkwardly and said, "Is all baijiu like this? Shall I get you some cola?"
At this moment, Xiang Chunyan's tent opened, and the firelight illuminated her rosy cheeks, making her exceptionally alluring. She was a woman who had just been aroused, making her even more captivating.
"Hey, Li Yun, what's wrong? Did that boy bully you?" Xiang Chunyan sat down next to Li Yun and asked with a casual smile. "Oh, there's food too?"
This was obviously an act; she had heard the entire conversation between the two of them clearly.
Li Yun glanced at Xiang Chunyan and suddenly froze. Xiang Chunyan was radiant, seemingly younger than ever, her face glowing with springtime vitality, exuding charm like a noblewoman. Could this be the effect of a man's touch?
Seeing Xiang Chunyan's irresistible charm, I felt a little jealous.
Hmph, it's all that guy's doing!
Zhang Guodong felt a little awkward, and Xiang Chunyan suddenly said to him, "My sister and I want to have a private talk. Shouldn't you, a grown man, leave for a moment?"
The word "boy" was about to leave her lips when she realized she should call him a man, and Xiang Chunyan felt her face burning. It was she who had guided Zhang Guodong through his transition from boy to man.
Thinking about what had just happened, Xiang Chunyan felt a little lighter.
Just as he was wondering where to find an excuse to escape, Zhang Guodong immediately nodded upon hearing this, crawled into the tent, and said, "I'll plug my ears and go to sleep, I promise I won't hear what you're saying!"
Listen, you really can't hear anything anymore. As soon as the zipper was closed, Zhang Guodong immediately entered the Peach Blossom Spring and breathed a sigh of relief.
The little ones' bottles were empty, but they still couldn't bear to let go. Zhang Guodong immediately thought, perhaps the little ones could sense their mother's departure?
He gently took out the two bottles, and the little ones moved around a bit, but quickly fell asleep under Zhang Guodong's gentle stroking.
"They're growing up, and the two little ones look exactly alike; it's really hard to tell them apart," Zhang Guodong thought to himself. They look like twins!
After staying there for a while, Zhang Guodong immediately went out, otherwise, if he accidentally discovered that the tent was empty, it would probably scare people. At that time, the secret of Peach Blossom Spring might be exposed.
Xiang Chunyan and Li Yun were indeed speaking like women, probably having opened their hearts to each other, so they whispered incessantly in the wooden house. Zhang Guodong naturally didn't plug his ears, but after listening for a while, he found it boring and actually fell asleep.
The next morning, Zhang Guodong was sound asleep when he was woken up by the sound of someone patting the tent.
Good heavens, you've disturbed my peaceful sleep!
"It's 8:30! You're sleeping like a pig. If you don't get up soon, you'll go hungry at noon!" It was Li Yun's voice. After a night of talking, this woman had actually returned to her shrewish nature.
But the fact that someone personally woke him up surprised Zhang Guodong, who felt as if he were dreaming.
"Okay, I'll get up right away!" Zhang Guodong glanced at the time and saw that it was indeed past eight o'clock. Although this sleep wasn't as comfortable as at home, it was still pretty good.
I dressed as quickly as possible, then went into Peach Blossom Spring to feed the little ones formula. After thinking for a moment, I took out the remaining four roast chickens and wine, just in case we didn't have anything to eat at noon and it was inconvenient to go back in to get them.
Stepping out of the cabin, they saw people wiping their faces with pristine snow, laughing and joking as they did so. Zhang Guodong followed suit, thus saving a considerable amount of water.
The snow was a bit cold, but it felt incredibly refreshing when you wiped it, and it didn't seem so cold anymore.
Because all the prey had been eaten, everyone could only eat some bread and milk in the morning. Only Zhang Guodong's diet was unrestricted, and whenever he had a spare moment, he would have a chicken leg in his mouth and a sip of wine in the morning, seemingly oblivious to the fact that the chicken leg was cold, and he ate it with great relish.
"Damn, I completely forgot about this! Ugh, give me a leg to gnaw on!" The fat man finally noticed and exclaimed excitedly. "How could I forget you bought six roast chickens when you came? Give me three!"
Zhang Guodong wasn't fooled; he was probably bribed by his superiors again.
"Just one, take it or leave it. We already used up two last night!" Zhang Guodong tossed one to the fat man. There were only a few roast chickens, not enough for several leaders. Wouldn't others be envious? So he should just stick to the chicken leg. There were still two chicken wings left.
Fatty and Zhang Guodong had eaten a hearty breakfast, so they walked with great energy.
In the morning, the two teams joined forces and swept through the area like Japanese soldiers entering a village, leaving no rabbits or pheasants untouched. Old Ying, Old Zhao, and Lin Yue were considered sharpshooters. When they encountered a flock of pheasants, they fired three arrows at once, while everyone else missed. Each of the three of them caught a pheasant.
Zhang Guodong followed behind the others, pacing back and forth, occasionally squatting down to dig for medicinal herbs. And surprisingly, the further they went in, the more herbs they found. In two hours, Zhang Guodong unearthed four wild ginseng plants that were several years old, and two four-year-old twin stalks of He Wu (a type of medicinal herb). Although He Wu is not as precious as ginseng, it was still quite good.
They ventured two kilometers deeper into the mountains and finally spotted traces of wild boars, which excited everyone.
"Everyone be quiet, don't make a sound!" Old Ying whispered to the crowd. "Wild boars are extremely sensitive to sound!"
Wild boars are very aggressive, so the team has to retreat.
Dozens of meters away, a large male wild boar strolled around with two half-grown piglets, seemingly oblivious to the onlookers. The lead boar weighed at least 200 pounds. Someone must have broken a tree branch, which alerted them, and the large boar immediately assumed an attack stance, which the two piglets, each weighing several dozen pounds, followed suit.
Old Ying and Old Zhao exchanged a glance, then tacitly nocked their arrows and drew their bows. The ox-horn bow was easily drawn to its full extent, and with a whoosh, two arrows pierced through the trees, taking two wild boar cubs. Even a distance of several dozen meters seemed unable to stop the speed of these arrows.
Then two arrows pierced the necks of the two large wild boar cubs, leaving clear streaks of blood in the air.
"Excellent archery!" the crowd exclaimed.
"Find trees for cover, everyone get ready to shoot arrows, I'll fire when I say so!" Old Ying wasn't relaxed at all; instead, he looked at the wild boar with a serious expression. The boar cubs' squeals and dying struggles enraged the male boar.
With a fierce howl, it pushed off with all four hooves and charged forward at an incredible speed.
Those long, sharp tusks showed that this male wild boar was extremely ferocious.
"Damn, that wild boar is fierce and fast!" someone exclaimed. But seeing that Lao Ying and Lao Zhao were calm and composed, they were immediately encouraged. Just when the boar was about twenty meters away from the group, Lao Ying shouted, "Five meters ahead, let go!"
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The arrows were flying in disarray, making it difficult to aim at a moving target. However, by pressing the arrows down slightly, the wild boar's momentum was slowed down. It was during this opportunity that Lao Ying and Lao Zhao managed to fire their arrows.
It turns out that everyone's arrows were only meant to slow down the wild boar's charge; once it paused, that was the best time to shoot.
Boom!
The injured wild boar crashed into a tree, propelling itself forward six or seven meters, causing the tree to shake violently.
It took a while before it stopped struggling.
"We've got it!" someone shouted excitedly.
When everyone went over to take a look, they gasped in shock. The arrows were incredibly accurate. One arrow had hit the wild boar in the eye and pierced its head, while the other arrow had lodged in its neck, right in the heart.
The third arrow, made of alloy, pierced the wild boar's neck, its tip faintly pointing towards its heart. Everyone glanced at Lin Yue simultaneously. Among those present, besides Old Ying and Old Zhao, only Lin Yue's arrow could have achieved such a feat. This woman was indeed terrifying. One arrow, and it was fatal!
