Chapter 365 Heartbeat
Xu Zhichun didn't know how much time had passed, only that as time ticked by, the random thoughts in her head grew increasingly disturbing and unsettling. The mountain breeze rustled the grass, creating a quiet, disturbing sound.
My eyes blurred and I finally saw the man walking towards me quickly.
The tall figure against the light appears even more imposing.
"clear!"
Xu Zhichun was overjoyed and ran towards him without even thinking. Liang Minglang looked up at her, smiled, and quickened his pace.
When they were close, he reached out and held her arm firmly.
"Are you okay?"
"It's okay!"
Both of them laughed in unison.
Xu Zhichun looked him up and down: "Are you injured?"
"Um, no."
Liang Minglang shook his head. At that moment, he felt a little regretful. He thought, would it be better if he got a minor injury that was not serious? He was still too strong. Alas.
Xu Zhichun breathed a sigh of relief and smiled brightly, "That's good, that's good! That wild boar was terrifying, and we've gained quite a bit. Let's go back."
If a wild boar came, she would be really scared. If a wolf, tiger or something else came, it would be even scarier.
No wonder the villagers dare not go into the mountains easily.
The feeling given by these uninhabited mountains is completely different from that of the mountains where people often come and go.
Just standing here doing nothing makes me feel cold and my scalp goes cold.
"Okay, I remember there's a flat and wide area about a quarter of an hour from here on the way back, with a mountain spring and stream. Let's stop there and I'll roast a pheasant. We can eat something and then continue on our way."
"good!"
Xu Zhichun happily agreed.
Liang Minglang picked up the backpack and took her back.
After about a quarter of an hour, the view suddenly opened up. It turned out to be a very good place to rest. It was bright and had a wide view. Large animals in the mountains did not like to appear in places without shelter and hiding places, so this place was relatively safer.
"You have a good memory!"
Xu Zhichun praised.
Liang Minglang smiled and said, "You take a rest under the tree. I'll go take care of this pheasant."
"Do you want my help?"
"Need not."
Liang Minglang quickly prepared the pheasant and brought it back, stringing it onto a long wooden stick as thick as a finger. He also brought back a tube of mountain spring water in a freshly cut bamboo tube. "I got the water from a spring. It's clean. Have a couple of sips, but don't drink too much."
"oh."
Xu Zhichun took it and drank the water slowly. Watching him skillfully make a fire and roast the chicken, he felt a sense of satisfaction and security in his heart.
There’s nothing better than not having to do anything and just letting yourself go.
It turns out there's such a big difference between having someone around and not having one.
Xu Zhichun suddenly thought that it would be better to just make do with him, since they couldn't get divorced anyway, and he and the former Xu Zhichun were just fake husband and wife.
On second thought, maybe my unilateral thoughts here are a bit too beautiful. In his mind, I am the original owner, just a fake couple, and he may not have any thoughts about me.
So, so—
Xu Zhichun felt that he could decide how hard to work based on the situation.
After all, we are still at the beginning stage. If we want to see the essence through the phenomenon, we still have a long way to go.
"What are you thinking about? It's baked and ready to eat."
Xu Zhichun's mind was full of half-yellowed garbage, which had been turning back and forth for several rounds and had not yet finished. He heard Liang Minglang's voice "Huh?" and turned around to see that he had already roasted the pheasant and was coming over.
The fragrance immediately hit my nose.
“Smells so good!”
Liang Minglang chuckled, tore off a large piece of golden and shiny chicken thigh meat, wrapped it in clean leaves, and handed it to her: "Eat it."
"Okay, you eat too."
Xu Zhichun took it, took a bite, and praised it: "It's delicious, well-roasted, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the seasoning is also very good!"
Before coming, the seasonings were not even prepared by Xu Zhichun, but were made by Liang Minglang himself in the kitchen.
Almighty.
Her smile widened.
Seeing that she liked it and ate it with gusto, Liang Minglang was also happy, "I'll save a good piece for you."
"Hmm"
Xu Zhichun smiled and returned the favor: "We have a lot of dried wild mushrooms at home. I'll stew a pheasant for you tonight. There are pickled peppers in the jar. Take half a bowl of pickled peppers, add shredded ginger and minced garlic, and make pickled pepper rabbit."
Liang Minglang had tasted her cooking countless times these days, but he was still very happy to hear her say this, "Okay, I'll help you."
Xu Zhichun agreed at first, but then he looked at him and joked, "Aren't you afraid of people gossiping about you coming into the kitchen to help me, a grown man?"
Liang Minglang was stunned. Are you scared?
He didn't seem to have thought about this question.
Now thinking about it, I shook my head and said, "What's there to be afraid of when it comes to family matters?"
This answer might be misunderstood, so he smiled and said, "I'm not afraid of not being at home. A man's strength doesn't need to be demonstrated by whether he enters the kitchen or not."
Xu Zhichun agreed wholeheartedly, "Yes, that's right. If someone dares to bully you, you have the ability to fight back. That's what true strength is."
Liang Minglang: “.”
That seems to be true.
He chuckled and nodded: "You're right."
After eating the roast chicken, the two washed their hands by the stream, feeling refreshed and ready to go back.
Xu Zhichun looked up and saw two huge Ganoderma lucidum on the cliff halfway up the mountain. Surprised and delighted, he tugged at Liang Minglang's sleeve and pointed to them. "Look, there are two huge Ganoderma lucidum there. It's a pity that the cliff is too steep and we can't climb up."
Liang Minglang had very good eyesight, and he saw it immediately when she pointed it out to him.
"It's very big, do you want it?"
Xu Zhichun shook his head regretfully: "It's too high, forget it."
Liang Minglang looked up and calculated, "It's not too high. I'll give it a try."
"No, no!" Xu Zhichun pulled at his sleeve and shook his head, "It's too steep. It's dangerous."
Cherish life and stay away from danger.
Besides, she is not in a situation where she urgently needs something valuable to make her first pot of gold. With the money she has now, she can afford to buy as many Ganoderma lucidum as she wants.
She didn't want Liang Minglang to take any risks.
It was so hard to have another person at home, and things seemed pretty good, so she didn't want any changes.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I've climbed higher and steeper places in the military camp many times. This is nothing. If you're scared, just turn around and don't look. I'll be down soon."
Although his words were a bit exaggerated, he had indeed climbed steeper and taller cliffs than this one. Since she was so surprised, what would it matter if he picked it?
"No, no!"
"Ganoderma lucidum represents auspiciousness. Now that we've encountered such a great auspicious sign, it's natural not to let it go. Wait!"
"Is there such a thing?"
Xu Zhichun was surprised, and before she could react, Liang Minglang had already walked forward.
