Chapter 149 Wild Fun Stealing a Kiss + Hitting the Wild Duck
Zhou Ye didn't think he was eating alone. He had a big appetite and was often hungry. He could only find something to fill his stomach when no one was around.
Normally, he would at most go to the back mountain at night to look for some edible grass and tree roots. Only when he went deep into the mountains to look for wild delicacies could he hunt some rabbits and pheasants to fill his stomach with oil and water.
Therefore, even though he often encountered wild beasts in the mountains, he was happy to go there.
If Lin Xiaopu was not there, Zhou Ye would have said this to Lin Shu, but now, he said nothing.
Lin Shu was very perceptive. She immediately grabbed his arm and asked, "Are you really not eating alone without telling us?"
Zhou Ye:......
Zhou Ye replied: "I have never hunted wild ducks for food without your knowledge."
Lin Shu smiled secretly in her heart.
I've never hunted wild ducks for food, but I've hunted other game for food. Is that what you mean?
Before she came, Zhou Ye worked in the fields with his father every day. It was easy to guess when he had stolen the food. It must have been when he went to the mountains to look for wild delicacies.
But it doesn’t matter. With Aye’s voracious appetite, the few pancakes that his mother made for him are not enough for him.
As they were walking, Lin Xiaopu in front suddenly stopped, pointed towards the river like a thief, and mouthed to them frantically: Wild duck, wild duck, wild duck!
Before reaching the section of the river that Zhou Ye mentioned, a wild duck appeared on the river ahead.
Wild ducks floated on the water, and seemed not to leave for a moment.
Zhou Ye gestured to Lin Xiaopu, indicating that she should practice with the wild duck, but it was a little far away at the moment, so she had to move forward.
Lin Xiaopu nodded vigorously and touched the lush grass with the lightest movement he had ever made in his life.
Taking cover from the half-human-high grass, she carefully concealed her body, then aimed the bamboo slingshot in her hand at the wild duck's head.
Then I took a deep breath and told myself not to be nervous.
Just like when she shot at the leaves on the tree, the wind blew the leaves, she could hit such a small and dancing leaf, let alone such a big wild duck...'s head.
The wild duck stopped and lowered its head to peck at its wings.
Right now!
Lin Xiaopu's eyes darkened. Just like he had aimed at the thin stick thousands of times before, he aimed the bullet out of the bamboo slingshot at the wild duck's head, pulled the bamboo stick, and shot it out hard.
The small stones placed in the thin bamboo tube in advance were instantly shot out by the bamboo strips.
Unexpectedly, the wild duck raised its head at this moment, and the bullet grazed its neck. The duck was so frightened that it spread its wings instantly and flew away from the river in the blink of an eye.
Lin Xiaopu stood up quickly and stamped his feet in frustration, "Almost! Did you see that, sister? I was just about to shoot the wild duck!"
Of course Lin Shu saw it, so she was shocked by the accuracy of Lin Xiaopu's slingshot.
She knew that since Xiao Pu got the bamboo slingshot, he couldn't let it go. He used it to shoot firewood every day. Later, he even won a slingshot shooting competition with Wang Yingen and others.
But these static objects are different from living things. Even the leaves on a tree have a pattern when they sway, but the movement trajectory of living things is difficult to predict.
Hitting a wild duck is much harder than hitting a leaf.
As a result, Xiao Pu almost shot the wild duck. This girl's accuracy is really amazing!
Thinking of this, Lin Shu slowly turned around, looked at the man beside her, and asked, "Aye, you are not really bringing Xiao Pu to hunt wild ducks, are you?"
Zhou Ye nodded. "She's good with the bamboo slingshot. If she tries a few more times, she should be able to shoot the wild duck."
"I thought you were bringing Xiao Pu and me here to play." Lin Shu said hesitantly, "The bullets in that bamboo slingshot are just small stones. They won't work if the range is a little long. Even if you shoot the duck from a closer distance, I'm afraid it won't be powerful enough to kill it."
She was the one who taught Zhou Ye how to make the bamboo slingshot, and she knew best how powerful it was.
If the range was within two or three feet, the bamboo slingshot could create a shallow bloody hole in a person, but it was unlikely that they could get that close to the wild duck. For example, the one Xiao Pu had just shot was about four feet away, which was considered close.
Wild ducks are very alert. If you get any closer, they might be startled and fly away.
Zhou Ye explained, "I didn't expect this bamboo slingshot to kill it in one shot, but if I could hit the duck's head, I could take advantage of its brief fainting and add a few more stones to its head, and then I could take it down."
When he came, he had already taught Xiao Pu the key points. To hunt the wild duck, just shoot at the head. After hitting the duck, don't delay and immediately throw a few stones.
Lin Shu blinked, "That's true. But I thought you were going to take action."
Zhou Ye was slightly stunned and asked, "How can I make a move when I have nothing in my hands?"
"Just like that martial arts master, holding a small stone in his hand, throwing it out with a swish, and then the stone hits the wild duck, killing it on the spot?"
Zhou Ye looked into her dark and lively eyes, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly nodded, "Okay, I'll try it later."
Lin Xiaopu's mouth snapped shut. She happened to hear this as she approached the two of them. She wanted to say, "Sister, have you read too many storybooks? No matter how good your kung fu is, it can't be that powerful. Anyway, she's never seen it." And even if there was, Brother Aye couldn't do it. No matter how strong Brother Aye was, he was just a farmer.
As a result...Brother Aye immediately responded to what Aye said.
No way, are you really going to throw stones at the duck with your bare hands? Brother Ye is so old, why is he cooperating with my sister's nonsense?
Lin Xiaopu shook his head helplessly, "Don't bother me with my work for a while, let me shoot first. If I miss, Brother Aye can throw stones at me."
Lin Shu was amused by her little adult appearance.
Zhou Ye said sternly, "We'll each find a place to lie dormant, and whoever gets closest to the wild duck will attack."
Lin Xiaopu also nodded seriously, "Okay."
The river water here was still a little fast, and the wild duck just stayed for a short time, so the three of them continued to walk downstream.
About a quarter of an hour later, without Zhou Ye saying anything, Lin Shu also saw the section of the river with flat terrain and slow flow.
The river bank was overgrown with weeds and there was a lot of algae in the river. When the three of them went there, there were two wild ducks swimming in the river. Because the three of them did not deliberately move lightly, the two wild ducks were startled and flew away, leaving only two ripples on the water.
"Brother Aye, he flew away!" Lin Xiaopu frowned.
Zhou Ye: "Don't worry, there will be more wild ducks coming. Find a suitable place to wait and shoot when the wild ducks come. Ah Shu and I will find another place."
When Lin Xiaopu heard this, she hurriedly waved at the two of them, looking as if she wished they would stop disturbing her.
Lin Shu: ...
This little girl's interest in wild ducks far exceeds anything else.
As she was muttering in her heart, Zhou Ye suddenly grabbed her hand, startling Lin Shu so much that she hurriedly looked at Lin Xiaopu.
Lin Xiaopu had already hidden behind a few clumps of water caltrops, which were half her height. As soon as she crouched down, she was completely obscured by the water caltrops. Hiding, she didn't even glance at the two of them, concentrating on watching the river for ducks.
Lin Shu twisted Zhou Ye's arm and said, "There's someone here, and you're touching her. Aren't you ashamed?"
Zhou Ye held her hand tightly and reminded her in a low voice: "A Shu, please keep your voice down. Xiao Pu didn't know about it. If you shout, won't she know it?"
Lin Shu chuckled and mocked, "Then if you have the guts, don't hold my hand. Are you afraid of being seen holding my hand?"
Zhou Ye, "I'm not afraid of being seen, I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed."
There was no village around here, so who could have seen it? Only Xiao Pu. And it didn't matter if Xiao Pu saw it.
Lin Shu hummed from her nose, "If I were shy, I wouldn't let you eat my z so quickly—mmmm!"
As soon as a sound came out of her mouth, Lin Shu's mouth was covered by Zhou Ye.
But he released it after covering it for a moment, "Ah Shu, don't say these things when we're alone."
Lin Shu raised her eyebrows provocatively, "You, you only dare to hold my hand secretly."
Zhou Ye didn't respond.
He didn't tell Ah Shu that even if he was just holding her hand like this, the heart in his chest would beat faster than usual, let alone doing anything else.
If Xiao Pu was not around, he would let her do something more extreme, but it was absolutely unacceptable when someone was around.
Zhou Ye pulled Lin Shu and walked downstream for a while. They were not too far away from Lin Xiaopu, only about fifty feet away.
There was even denser and more lush grass here, with cattails and reeds growing densely, densely packed together, enough to hide a tall and strong man like Zhou Ye. And with Lin Shu's petite figure, hiding was no problem at all.
Taking advantage of the cover of the grass, Lin Shu pulled Zhou Ye, who had just squatted down, towards her and quickly kissed him on the cheek.
"Idiot, the two of us are squatting behind the bushes here. Not only can Xiao Pu not see us, but even if a passerby looks over here, they can't see clearly what we are doing." Unless someone comes closer to look.
But if it was really that close, not to mention A Ye, she could hear the approaching footsteps.
Zhou Ye touched the place on his cheek where he was secretly kissed. Although he didn't smile, there was obvious joy in his eyes.
"It's just a light kiss on the cheek, look how happy you are." Lin Shu raised the corners of her mouth.
Zhou Ye looked at Lin Shu, his eyes falling on her lips that kept opening and closing while she spoke. Those lips were like bright red wild fruits in the mountains, with the wildness of growing wildly, extremely ostentatious and tempting to taste.
"Ashu, do you mean it's okay here?" Zhou Ye asked, his eyes darkening almost instantly as he looked at her.
"What can I do? Ah!"
Before Lin Shu could even finish her cry, Zhou Ye blocked it between her lips and teeth.
He actually pulled the person next to him into his arms, making Lin Shu kneel between his legs. Then, without saying a word, he covered her lips fiercely, kissed her for a while, pried open her teeth, and swept her fiercely inside, kissing her until she gasped.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Shu pushed him away a little. Before she could even catch her breath, she gave him a sidelong glance, "Didn't you say you didn't dare? Why are you saying that so soon?"
Zhou Ye's eyes were deep, and his lips were wet from the kiss, glistening with water, which made Lin Shu even more embarrassed and annoyed. He explained shamelessly: "A Shu, we are the only two here. We can do this."
Lin Shu spitted at him, "There are only two of us, Xiao Pu is still here!"
"She is busy hunting wild ducks and has no time to look over here. Even if she looked, she couldn't see anything." After Zhou Ye finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her again.
He was tall, with broad shoulders, and he almost completely held Lin Shu in his arms. Not to mention the weeds here, even if there was nothing, one could only see Zhou Ye's broad back. Others would think that Zhou Ye was dozing off, not knowing that he was hugging the person in his arms and kissing her until she turned into a puddle of water.
Fifty feet away, Lin Xiaopu was patiently watching the wild ducks in the sky.
Now that she has chosen a place to lie dormant, she cannot move around randomly.
She did glance at Lin Shu and Zhou Ye a few times, but found that they were hiding very deep, and from her angle she could only see their clothes vaguely, so she gave up looking. As a result, she had no idea that her good sister was being held in Zhou Ye's arms and kissed hard.
After a moment, Lin Shu squatted obediently beside Zhou Ye, her face flushed and her eyes watery.
It’s better to get down to business. She doesn’t dare to tease A Ye anymore. This guy is becoming more and more irresistible.
Zhou Ye's breathing had calmed down and he was staring at the river intently.
Wild ducks and various water birds flew by in the sky from time to time, but they did not stay. Instead, they flew to wider and broader waters.
When Lin Shu couldn't bear it any longer and sat down on the ground, a wild duck suddenly flew to the water surface. It first drank the river water for a while, then swam to the place where there were algae and pecked at the algae.
There happened to be a patch of algae where Zhou Ye and Lin Shu were squatting, which was enough to attract the wild duck to come closer.
Sure enough, the wild duck slowly swam over here.
It happened in a flash. Just as the wild duck lowered its head to peck at the algae in the river, Zhou Ye swung his arm suddenly and threw the stone in his hand at the duck's neck!
Lin Shu's eyes suddenly widened as she watched with her own eyes as the wild duck, which was pecking at the algae with its head down, was hit on the neck by a stone in the blink of an eye. It flapped its arms weakly a few times before its neck completely went limp.
Aye actually hit the wild duck with a stone and broke its neck in one blow!
