Chapter 364 Going to the Mountains
Xu Zhichun was very happy. "How about tomorrow morning?"
Liang Minglang chuckled and nodded, "Sure."
"It's a long way to go, isn't it? In that case, let's make some food tonight and set off early tomorrow."
"Aren't you tired?"
"No, I'm just walking."
She is already used to walking on mountain roads.
Liang Minglang: "It's okay to go a little further away."
He hadn't planned to go too far, but if she was okay with it, then he didn't mind. Whatever was in the mountains, it wasn't a problem for him right now.
The next day, just after dawn, Xu Zhichun went out with Liang Minglang.
Even in summer, the mornings were still chilly. A layer of dew, like frost, coated the grass, wetting the tiny spider webs. The morning star hung low in the sky directly ahead, its brightness startling.
Xu Zhichun smiled and said, "I've never been on a journey this early before, but it doesn't feel bad at all. It's quite different from usual days at this time of daybreak."
Liang Minglang paused, suddenly remembering the time Xu Zhichun had saved him. It was around this time, wasn't it? It was too dark to see the road clearly, and he nearly fell several times.
Liang Minglang didn't mention the past, but casually reminded: "It's dark and the road is slippery, be careful where you step."
The two walked for more than an hour and a half. The trees became more and more dense. The sun had risen high in the sky, but the layers of branches and leaves filtered out the heat brought by the sunlight, and the mountain was still cool.
In a place where no one has ever set foot, what you hear and see is quiet and empty. Even if there is the rustling of the wind, the chirping of birds and the buzzing of insects, it is still so quiet that it makes people feel cool.
Fortunately, when I looked up at the sky, the sun was shining brightly, so it didn't feel scary.
"Minglang, what should we do next?"
After resting for a while, Xu Zhichun looked at Liang Minglang with bright eyes.
Liang Minglang smiled and said, "There should be plenty of small game in the mountains. Let's just take a walk."
"OK."
He pointed in a direction where there seemed to be fewer weeds and vines and the road seemed easier to walk on.
"How's it going here?"
Xu Zhichun had no objection, "Yeah!"
After a while, we walked into a pine forest, and stepped on the soft pine needles. The soft and refreshing pine scent became more intense and clear under the exposure to the sun, and it smelled very pleasant.
Xu Zhichun followed Liang Minglang, as if they were on a leisurely outing. Liang Minglang's eyes were much better than hers, and he was surprised one after another.
Pheasants, hares, wild doves, wild pigeons, and grouse. Before the sun reached noon, we had already harvested more than a dozen.
Xu Zhichun happily followed behind him and picked up the trash. He put the trash into a backpack, which was neither too big nor too small, and was also behind Liang Minglang.
Watching him hunting was so easy, just like playing. Xu Zhichun praised him countless times, and Liang Ming's bright and handsome face was filled with smiles.
Liang Minglang suddenly grabbed Xu Zhichun's arm and said, "Shh, be quiet, and follow me."
Xu Zhichun was stunned as he was pulled for a while and hid behind a lush bush.
She knew that unexpected situations could happen at any time in the mountains, so she didn't dare to move and followed him obediently. Even when he said "hush", she didn't dare to say a word, for fear of getting into trouble.
You have to know that the trouble in the mountains is not ordinary trouble.
Xu Zhichun looked at Liang Minglang eagerly, his eyes full of questions: What happened? What happened?
A smile flashed across Liang Minglang's eyes. He couldn't bear to see her full of questions unanswered, so he leaned forward slightly and whispered, "There's movement in the southeast direction. It sounds like it might be a wild boar. This guy has a bad temper and a fierce personality. He's the bully of the mountains. Let's avoid him."
Xu Zhichun nodded quickly: "Yeah, yeah, yeah"
She had heard from the villagers that the wild boar's long tusks had stabbed people to death. It was indeed violent and scary.
Soon, she also heard the rustling sound. Her eyes blurred and she saw a huge wild boar coming out of the grass. Its body was huge and long, like a hill, with black mane all over its body, which was rough and messy and covered with grass debris. Its mouth was longer than chopsticks, its white fangs were long and sharp, and its black green eyes were small and sharp. It glanced forward unintentionally, scaring people so much that they quickly avoided it and dared not meet its gaze.
Very scary.
The huge wild boar walked while lowering its head to dig up the grass roots on the ground in search of food, and its fangs easily left two deep marks.
Xu Zhichun didn't dare to breathe.
Fortunately, the two people hid in time and the wild boar did not discover them.
Although he was huge in size, his movements were not clumsy at all. He walked forward while digging the ground for food, and soon he was walking away with a rustling sound.
"Okay, it's okay."
Only after Liang Minglang spoke did Xu Zhichun pat his chest lightly and relax.
Before she could finish her breath, a dry branch fell from above her head with a "crack!" sound. Xu Zhichun screamed "Ah!" and subconsciously dodged. Liang Minglang put one arm around her waist and pulled her to the side, while he raised his other arm steadily and accurately grabbed the branch that was as thick as his wrist.
Liang Minglang threw the branch away and patted her back gently. "Don't be afraid, it's okay! It's okay!"
Xu Zhichun's face turned pale, her heart was still beating wildly, her legs were a little weak, and she could hardly stand while leaning on Liang Minglang.
Although it was a dead branch, such a thick dead branch falling on the head from such a tall tree would be fatal, and it might be enough to kill her.
The wild boar that was walking far away heard the noise here, called out vigilantly, turned around and walked towards this side.
As he walked, he issued warning sounds, his eyes flashing with a fierce look.
Xu Zhichun's expression changed. "What should I do? It's all my fault—"
"Don't blame you, it was an accident. If it were someone else, they would have screamed even louder." Liang Minglang interrupted her before she could finish.
I felt a sense of comfort—but it was purely psychological. The fierce mountain tyrant continued to advance fiercely, showing no sign of stopping.
Xu Zhichun was anxious: "What should we do now? Or should we run away?"
Liang Minglang quickly put down the backpack and gently patted the back of her hand. "Hide here, don't move, don't go anywhere, wait for me."
"you--"
"Shh, don't make any noise."
Liang Minglang strode out from behind the bushes, picked up a piece of dirt and hit the Mountain Bully on the head accurately. The Mountain Bully was so angry that he suddenly screamed, turned his head and glared at Liang Minglang, and the next moment he rushed towards Liang Minglang howling.
The King of the Mountains is not entitled to his title for nothing. Although he is huge in size, he runs extremely fast, crushing everything in his path.
Liang Minglang also moved quickly. After throwing the clod of earth, he immediately turned around and ran away.
Xu Zhichun felt that he had not yet fully reacted when Liang Minglang and the Mountain Overlord disappeared.
She had nothing to do with the duel between the strong. She just sat quietly in the bushes. She just said she was going to run. She? It was a wonder she could outrun the mountain tyrant!
Will Liang Minglang be okay?
Xu Zhichun was fidgeting, nervous and sweating.
