Chapter 46 The Date Tree ambushes the lamb family!



Chapter 46 The Date Tree ambushes the lamb family!

To get to Yezhuling, one has to pass by the wheat field at the entrance of the village. Before entering, one can hear the sobbing voice of a woman, which drifts far away on the wind.

Mingdai took a curious look and it seemed that the people at the educated youth center were arguing. Song Lanlan was cursing with her hands on her hips. A woman was sitting paralyzed on the ground. It should be Liu Yan. She was crying and unable to speak. There were many villagers watching around, but no one stepped forward to persuade them.

Mingdai just took a look and stopped paying attention, just kept walking forward.

Zhou Sinian, holding the military green crossbody bag that Ming Daixin had given him, followed closely, not caring at all about what happened on the wheat field.

There are a group of wild boars on Wild Boar Ridge. The villagers are afraid of it and usually don't go there. However, the criticized big devil Zhou Sinian treats it as his back garden and allows him to come and go freely.

This time they came mainly to find some dates. After eating the medicinal food cooked by Ming Dai, Zhou Sinian said that this red fruit can also be found in the mountains.

After entering the mountain, it was still the familiar creaking path. Mingdai adjusted herself into a comfortable posture and was held by Zhou Sinian as they ran into the mountain. The speed was beyond the reach of her short legs.

After running for a long time and going around the hill, we finally arrived at the destination.

Compared with the pine forest and chestnut forest, there are only three jujube trees growing on the edge of the cliff, half of their bodies sticking out of the cliff, looking very dangerous.

However, there are quite a few red dates on the tree. Because they are wild, they are not very big and hang dryly on the branches due to being exposed to the sun.

Ming Dai thought about it, and for safety reasons, she asked Zhou Sinian to find two long branches, take out a sheet from the space, make a net bag, and then put it under the protruding branches.

She lay on the edge of the cliff, holding up the net bag. Zhou Sinian stood on the date tree and jumped around. The dates, which were crispy from the sun, fell down with a bang, and most of them fell into the net bag.

Zhou Sinian came down, picked up the net bag, and poured the dates inside onto the open ground.

By doing this, the dates outside the cliff were quickly collected.

Zhou Sinian went up to shake the remaining dates on the tree, while Mingdai picked them up from below. Soon, they had harvested two full sacks of dates.

Mingdai looked at the results of her labor with satisfaction. She was in a very good mood as she thought about the delicious food that could be made with the chestnuts and pine nuts in the space.

Zhou Sinian looked at her with an inexplicable smile, wiped the sweat from his forehead, took out the chestnuts from his cross-body bag and started eating.

Now he is very skilled at eating chestnuts. He pinches the chestnut and uses his thumb and index finger to easily crack the shell. He puts it in his mouth and takes a bite. The chestnut meat automatically falls into his mouth. He eats one by one, and he is very happy.

Ming Dai did not stop him. She took out a cup of hot milk from the dining table and handed it to him, letting him drink it in the shade.

While Zhou Sinian was having a snack, Mingdai stood up and began to look around.

At this time of year, the mountains are golden, and the mountain wind is howling, blowing up many fallen leaves that are fluttering among the cliffs, like a flock of flying butterflies, which is very beautiful.

Suddenly, several animals on the opposite hillside attracted Mingdai's attention. She took out a telescope from the space, put it on her face and looked towards the opposite side.

"Oh! Isn't this a wild goat?"

Sure enough, on the opposite hillside, the animal that was craning its neck to eat from the low trees was a wild goat.

Ming Dai excitedly called out to Zhou Sinian: "Zhou Sinian! Do you want to eat mutton?"

"Meat?!"

Although he didn't know what a sheep was, Zhou Sinian already had an idea of ​​what meat was. He rushed over with chestnuts in his hands and could see clearly what was in front of him without a telescope.

When he saw that it was a flock of sheep, he frowned in disgust: "It doesn't taste good, it stinks!"

Ming Dai knew he was talking about the smell of mutton: "It's delicious, you just don't know how to cook it. If you catch me, I'll make you mutton soup. It's even better than chicken soup!"

Zhou Sinian looked at her suspiciously, then looked at the flock of sheep opposite. Seeing the lambs finishing their meal and leaving, Mingdai began to get anxious.

He then carefully rewrapped the chestnuts and put them back, then reluctantly picked up Mingdai, took a running start, and jumped off the cliff amid Mingdai's screams.

"ah!!!!!"

Mingdai thought he would go around the hill from which he came, but unexpectedly, he actually jumped directly down from the cliff!

Just when she thought her life was over, Zhou Sinian landed steadily on a crooked tree on the cliff, and continued to jump down with the help of the tree. Each step landed steadily on the protruding rocks, and soon he reached the bottom of the cliff.

When she stood firmly at the bottom of the cliff, Mingdai's soul was still in the air and could not be recovered.

She looked up at the steep cliff, then at Zhou Sinian, who was frowning and looking impatient, and swallowed hard.

You should be nicer to him in the future.

Zhou Sinian looked at the small hill not far away. The flock of sheep on it were about to move their position to look for new young leaves.

He looked at Mingdai, whose face was as pale as a cat, and lifted her up by the scruff of her neck like a kitten.

Mingdai only felt a moment of suffocation, and when she came to her senses, she was already riding on the old locust tree under the cliff.

With tears in her eyes, she watched Zhou Sinian bending forward towards the hill, and a group of alpacas were galloping in her heart.

Damn! This is a locust tree! There are sharp thorns on the branches!

Enduring the pain, she stared at Zhou Sinian who was going away. She had to eat the sheep.

At worst, I can add another two taels of Coptis chinensis when I make medicine for Zhou Sinian tomorrow!

Zhou Sinian's body, which was lying behind the rock, trembled. He turned his head vigilantly to look, but found nothing. He thought he was hallucinating again, so he turned around and began to concentrate on hunting.

Although he didn't believe that something so smelly could be eaten, the pine nut candy he had been dreaming about still needed Mingdai to make it, so he had no choice but to listen to her.

As the flock moved, he crawled after them.

It was a small flock of seven adult sheep and three lambs.

Zhou Sinian carefully held his breath and followed behind the flock of sheep. When a lamb was playing and out of the sight of its mother, he grabbed the lamb's mouth with one hand and its leg with the other, and dragged the lamb behind the rock.

In the lamb's terrified eyes, he gently pressed the lamb's neck, and the lamb's head drooped instantly.

After hiding the lamb, he used this method to catch the other lambs that fell behind one by one.

The ewe finally realized something was wrong; all three of her lambs were gone!

Just as she was about to shout out, Zhou Sinian struck the ewe with a knife, and the ewe became paralyzed. Zhou Sinian then held her in his arms with disgust and hid her away.

After subduing two big sheep using the same method, the leader sheep finally realized something was wrong.

Fuck! My wife and kids are gone!

He ran back and forth on the hillside anxiously, calling out, and the remaining three followed him.

But the more they looked, the fewer sheep they found. In the end, there was only the head sheep left.

It was spinning in circles in panic, bleating in fear.

Zhou Sinian then showed up, and before it could react, he threw a stone at it, knocking it unconscious.

After counting, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, plus the three lambs, they were all there. He was satisfied and walked quickly towards the bottom of the cliff.

Ming Dai was amazed by Zhou Sinian's actions. She thought Zhou Sinian was alone and it would be good enough if he could catch one, but she didn't expect that he caught the whole family.

As expected of a soldier, he knows how to defeat the enemies one by one. He deserves praise!
