Later, Xia Manni asked Erwa to take Potato to jump over various obstacles. Their obstacles were very limited, and gradually Erwa took Potato outside to practice.
Every day, they both came back covered in dirt, and Xia Manni would scold Erwa. Da Wa would even hit Erwa a few times to vent his anger.
Just when Erwa's clothes were no longer worth keeping and Xia Manni wanted to call a halt, Erwa actually taught Potato to flip over the obstacles.
Xia Manni didn't know whether it was because Erwa had superb training skills or because Potato was more alert, but it only took seven days to train Potato, and Potato had become different from before.
"Mom, let's bring all the weapons we can. If we get there and the potato is no match for it, we'll just fight it." Big Boy had already picked up the stick, but he still felt that he had to be cautious about this matter.
"Brother, what are you talking about? Our potato will definitely defeat its opponent."
After hearing this, Da Wa just pursed his lips and said nothing.
Xia Manni understood Da Wa's concerns, perhaps because of their different personalities. Da Wa was more cautious and good at thinking things through. Meanwhile, Er Wa was always passionate, carefree, and simple-minded.
Based on Xia Manni's experience in life, neither of these two situations is good. They are both a bit extreme, and it would be great if they could be neutralized.
The five members of the family walked up the mountain without saying a word. But when they got there, Potato started to behave unruly.
Potato became a little irritable and restless since arriving in the mountains. Erwa had to scold him in a low voice many times before Potato gradually calmed down.
"Don't make any noise." When they reached halfway up the mountain, Xia Manni always felt that the atmosphere nearby was not right.
So she gently warned the children not to make any noise. Xia Manni listened carefully and found that there must be the sound of animals fighting nearby.
Just then, a low growl came from Potato's throat, a growl they rarely heard.
The last time I heard it was the day Daxiu and his mother came to their house to steal things.
Xia Manni observed Potato and saw that although it made a warning sound and even its posture was defensive, it did not take the next step.
Xia Manni felt that the animal nearby should not be big, otherwise she would have heard its roar a long time ago.
However, she had no way of estimating or measuring whether their number was large or small.
"Erwa, comfort Potato. If it wants to rush out, don't stop it, just follow it." Xia Manni said to Erwa who didn't know what to do.
Looking at Potato's behavior, Erwa thought that it must have encountered a strong enemy, so he did as Xia Manni said, stroking its slightly frizzy fur while talking in its ear.
About half an hour later, Xia Manni heard the sound of an animal running not far away.
The sound was definitely not made by a human, because at this moment the potato actually moved.
Xia Manni thought that Potato would run immediately after moving, but she didn't expect that Potato would actually be in a crawling posture.
Seeing that Tu Dou was so cautious, Xia Manni and the others also lowered their waists and walked slowly.
Only Si Ni'er and Sanwa had it the easiest, because they were not tall to begin with, and Xia Manni and the others were blocking the way in front, so they could not be seen from the front.
At this moment, the potato stopped.
It first lowered its head and sniffed, then rubbed against Erwa's arm.
Xia Manni looked ahead. There was a tall bamboo forest in front of them. They were now on an uphill slope.
This position was a good cover, so Xia Manni took the machete and walked to the front.
She first used a machete to clear away the weeds above, and then looking up she saw a tall bamboo forest.
Xia Manni stuck her head out to take a look, and the scene in front of her made her eyes widen.
I saw several rabbits lying in the bamboo forest ahead. Some of them were still alive and struggling.
What is that animal with yellow fur next to it?
Could it be a fox???
Xia Manni looked at the scene in front of her, thought for a while, and without wasting any time, she called a few children and rushed forward.
"Let's not waste time and put all the animals on the ground into the backpack." After saying this, Xia Manni quickly picked up the rabbits and foxes on the ground.
Xia Manni only roughly counted them, and there were probably about a dozen of them. She couldn't imagine what had just happened here. Now, there was only one sentence left in her mind that kept appearing in her mind.
That is: get rich, get rich...
Xia Manni and several other children were busy picking up the rabbits on the ground, only Erwa was pulling the potatoes.
I saw Potato baring its teeth at a fox on the ground.
Well, it seems that the enemy of potato has been found.
If Erwa hadn't discovered the abnormality of the potatoes, they wouldn't have had such an unexpected windfall.
"Erwa, put the fox in your backpack quickly and keep an eye on the potatoes." Xia Manni didn't want the potatoes to bite the little fox, otherwise they would have nothing to eat.
Before long, everyone had two or three animals in their backpacks, and only the blood of the animals was left on the ground.
She didn’t know if it was Xia Manni’s illusion, but she seemed to hear the sound of an animal running towards her.
She observed the footprints and feces on the ground. If she guessed correctly, there should be a lot of wild boars on this mountain.
"Hurry up, let's get out of here." Xia Manni shouted to the children, and then she picked up Si Ni'er, and Da Wa picked up San Wa.
After this period of exercise, the children have become much stronger, especially the eldest child, who used to be out of breath after holding the third child.
Now the eldest child was holding the third child and the backpack on the third child's back, and he didn't look abnormal, but she told the second child to replace the eldest child in time.
They were walking very fast when she suddenly thought of something. She turned to the eldest child behind her and said, "Eldest child, let's go to the river quickly. Don't go home directly."
Xia Manni's sense of direction in the mountains wasn't as good as Da Wa's. They were carrying a dozen rabbits and foxes, and their bodies reeked of odor. If they entered the village like this, not only would they be seen by the villagers, but wild boars might also smell their scent.
If she guessed correctly, there was a war between the animals.
Obviously, the wild boars won, and we can infer that there must be other large animals here. So the wild boars took the other prey back, but they will come back to look for the remaining rabbits. Obviously, this rabbit was snatched away by them.
They became the wild boar's enemies. If they went home like this, the wild boar might follow the scent and find their way home.
This is not a good thing.
