I'm a little jealous of his skill, but if I work harder, I'll be able to learn it one day.
The people who heard the shouting in the woods also came out at this time. Lu Jing was holding a fat bamboo rat in his hand and running in the front, his face full of anxiety.
He ran to Lu Nian and stopped, dropped the things in his hands, held her shoulders with both hands, turned her around several times, and made sure that there were no wounds, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, he also noticed Chen Li next to him. He saw the bamboo green shoots broken into two sections in her hand at a glance, and his face turned pale again.
Fortunately, fortunately, he couldn't imagine what would happen if his sister was bitten by a snake...
"Brother, I'm fine. Master Pei and Sister A Li saved me."
Seeing her brother's anxious look, she hurriedly explained that although she was indeed very scared just now, she was no longer afraid now.
As for giving half of Pei Yu's credit to Chen Li, she felt that it was just the way it was. Sister Ali would have saved her anyway, she was just a step slower.
"Thank you very much."
Lu Jing bowed to Chen Li, then picked up the bamboo rat on the ground and pulled Lu Nian back to the carriage, not forgetting to remind him: "An Nian, don't run around anymore."
Lu Nian turned around and waved to Shen Xiaoya behind him, and didn't forget to respond: "Okay, brother, I understand."
Chen Li brought the bamboo green snake to Doctor Liu and said, "Grandpa Liu, I found this in the bamboo forest. Do you want it?"
"It's Ali!"
He leaned in a little closer to take a look, then took it with his eyes slightly shining. "Yes, it's a pity, why is it broken in the middle?"
"It wants to hurt people, there's nothing we can do about it."
Doctor Liu nodded to show his understanding that life was important, and then he took the snake to study it. Chen Li also turned around and went back.
At this time, the large group in the bamboo forest also came out. The leader, An Liu, was holding three bamboo rats and two bamboo partridges in his hands. A little bit of pride could be seen on his usually expressionless face.
The rest of the people had harvests in their hands. Each of them had a bamboo rat, and some even had a few eggs.
"Ali, just now Lao Liu led us to take out several bamboo rat nests. I also picked up a few bamboo eggs. Let's roast them and eat them tonight."
So that's how it is. No wonder everyone got something out of it. It turns out they destroyed everyone's nest.
"OK!"
Shen Li walked towards her carriage. As soon as she arrived, she heard Shen Changshan asking, "I just heard a scream. Did something happen?"
Lu Nian stood up, his face a little red, and said embarrassedly: "Uncle, Xiaoya and I went to play in the bamboo forest just now and were scared by a snake."
Shen Changshan nodded, "Be more careful next time."
He didn't ask if anyone was bitten or anything like that. The team was so quiet now. Although the little girl's face was still a little pale, it was obvious that she was fine.
Lin Cuicui was already cooking. She made a pheasant soup and fried one of two wild rabbits. Shen Jingyuan and Shen Yuanzhou skinned the bamboo rats and roasted them over the fire.
They had discovered a trick when hunting. If they wanted to eat the prey on the same day, they had to kill it. If it was alive, their mother would definitely have to raise it for two more days.
So, hehe, however, knowing is one thing, and being able to do it is another.
They are not like my little sister who can catch prey with her bare hands. The prey caught with bows and arrows is usually dead and can be put into the pot immediately.
As soon as An Liu came back, he immediately started cooking. However, he glanced at his master who had a dark face next to him, and then looked at Tian Qing who was standing next to him. What was going on?
Tianqing shrugged: I don’t know!
The master has been in a moody state recently, so he didn't dare go up to him and ask him questions. If he did, he would definitely be the target of his anger.
Seeing this, An Liu concentrated on the things in his hands, speeding up the preparation of dinner, making sure it was perfect.
In the evening, after dinner, Chen Li was surrounded in the middle, and outside was a circle formed by her brothers, cousins, and younger brothers.
They spent an entire afternoon and had already memorized the mental method. Now Chen Li sat in the middle and listened to their respective opinions. If there were any mistakes, everyone would express their own opinions and then take the most useful ones.
The seven people closed their eyes and began to recite the mental method silently. After a while, Chen Li looked around and found that only the fourth brother and the eldest cousin could calm down.
The rest either scratched their ears, shook their legs, or occasionally opened their eyes to look around.
Chen Li didn't care, but just looked at them with a smile, which made them feel embarrassed, so they closed their eyes and stopped moving.
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he tiptoed out of the circle without staying here to disturb them.
Lu Jing looked over there, seeing how they sat, and guessed that they were probably practicing martial arts. Hope rose in his heart. Could he join them?
No, mother said that people should not be so greedy. Sister Ali has done me a favor, and it is wrong to do this!
Even though he knew clearly in his mind, the thoughts in his mind still leaned towards this direction out of his control. He pinched his palms hard with his nails, forcing himself to calm down.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
Lu Nian was feeling a little sleepy. Seeing his brother standing there, trembling slightly, he felt a little worried. He quickly grabbed his hand and found that his palms were sweaty.
"It's okay, go to sleep."
He could naturally see that his sister was already sleepy, so he forced himself to suppress his thoughts and sat beside her, watching her sleep.
In this way, he hesitated for several days until the fifth night, when he just walked in front of Chen Li.
"Sister Ali, can I learn martial arts like them?"
Chen Li looked at him. This guy was quite patient. She originally thought that he could only endure for three days at most, but she didn't expect that he would come to her on the fifth day.
"You want to learn?"
"yes!"
The boy's voice was powerful and his expression was determined, showing that he had already thought it through.
"You know, it's best to learn from a young age. You're a little old to learn now."
"I know. I know I can't become a martial arts hero. I just hope to learn some basic skills to protect my family."
Chen Li changed the subject and said, "I don't have anything free here."
Lu Jing looked at the girl in front of him and promised seriously: "I will pay it back."
"OK."
Chen Li handed him a few secret manuals and said, "Take a look first. Write them down and return them to me. Don't copy them, and don't tell others about the secrets."
Looking at the secret book in his hand, the boy finally smiled.
"Thank you, Sister Ali."
Chen Li watched him turn around and leave excitedly, finally showing some of the vigor that her age should have.
Pei Yu suddenly blurted out, "We picked him up, why are you treating him so well?"
"Um?"
Of course it’s because he will be of great use in the future. Only a fool would miss out on such a low-cost and high-return opportunity!
