Mu Qingli and Fu Hongzhou stopped digging bamboo shoots and picking mushrooms. They carried a big bamboo shoot and a small handful of mushrooms and walked out, leaving marks as they walked.
Mu Qingli was afraid that she would not be able to find it back, so she deliberately left a mental mark.
Chi Ziheng brought Shen Wazi to the forest on the back mountain. When Chi Ziheng came out, he said he would bring his friend Shitou with him. After looking around but couldn't find anyone, he took Shen Wazi into the mountain with him.
As soon as Shenwazi entered the mountain, he completely let himself go, jumping up and down like a lively little monkey, while Chi Ziheng couldn't stop laughing. The big and the small were having a lot of fun.
"Brother Ziheng, where is the treasure? Let's go dig for it!" After having enough fun in the mountains and forests, Shenwazi asked Chi Ziheng with a smile.
Chi Ziheng was holding a bunch of wild fruits picked by Shenwazi in his arms, and his smile was so severe that his teeth were showing.
"It's in Wanku Mountain over there! The old people in the village all said that the reason there are so many caves over there is that people in ancient times hid a lot of treasures there when there were wars!" Chi Ziheng put all the wild fruits in the two rolled-up sleeves of his coat, held them in one hand, pointed to the mountains in the east, and said with a smile.
Shenwazi raised his head and looked in the direction Chi Ziheng pointed. He could see nothing but grass, bushes and dense treetops. It was all because of his short legs!
"Then let's go and take a look! Let's go dig for treasure!" Shenwazi said, jumping around regardless of whether he could see or not.
"It's very dangerous over there. The elders said there are wild beasts and man-eating monsters!" Chi Ziheng said seriously with a stern face.
"Really? That's great. I'll go catch a wild beast and we'll go back and make some soup!" Shenwazi said calmly, as if catching a wild beast was as easy as eating and drinking.
"Little boy, you may not be big, but you are very brave. Even the most skilled hunter in our village doesn't dare to go there easily. Besides wild beasts, there are also man-eating monsters." Chi Ziheng was amused by the nonchalant and proud look of Chanwazi.
"A man-eating monster? What does it look like? Have you ever seen it?" Shen Wazi tilted his little head and asked curiously.
In Chi Ziheng's opinion, this kid is really cute and ignorant.
When the children in the village heard about the man-eating monster, they were so scared that they would stop crying or stop laughing immediately. This legend has been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
"I haven't seen it, I just heard people talk about it. If I had seen it, you wouldn't have seen me!" Chi Ziheng said seriously.
"Are you saying that everyone who has seen it has been eaten by the monster?"
"Yes!"
"Then where did the legend about the man-eating monster in this mountain come from?" The little boy blinked his big watery and cute eyes, put on a stern face, and asked Chi Ziheng seriously. His little look was so adorable.
Chi Ziheng couldn't help but squat down with a smile, pinching Shen Wazi's little face: "It has been passed down from ancient times to the present day. Maybe a thousand years, maybe a hundred years. There must be someone who survived the monster's mouth, right?"
"Then let's pretend to be the ones who survived the monster's mouth!" Shenwazi looked like a little soldier going to the battlefield, and walked with his short legs in the direction that Chi Ziheng pointed.
"Hey! Xiaochuan, are you really going?" Chi Ziheng followed Chan Wazi and asked as he walked.
"Yes! Are you scared? Otherwise, you go back first and I'll go take a look!" Shenwazi thought that if he sent Chi Ziheng back, he could run faster.
"That won't do! You're so young, what if you get lost? You might be taken away by wild wolves before you even reach Wanku Mountain!" Chi Ziheng was worried about letting the little brat Chan Wazi wander around in the mountains.
Shenwazi was a little discouraged. It was all because of his small body. When would he be able to grow taller?
Holding the little white dog in his pocket, Shen Wa Zi muttered to himself, "I have bodyguards here! Which beast is so blind? How dare it come and eat me? Who knows who will eat whom?"
Besides, is there anyone in this mountain who can rival me? Who can be my rival?
"There's no way I'll get lost in the mountains in my lifetime!" Chanwazi walked in the woods leisurely with his hands behind his back, like a little adult.
Seeing this, Chi Ziheng couldn't help but laugh. This kid is really funny.
It was impossible for Shen Wazi to move forward quickly with Chi Ziheng, so he could only move slowly.
The two walked for a long time before they came out of the forest and saw the mountain wall.
Chi Ziheng was almost exhausted. After leaving the forest, he sat on a rock at the foot of the mountain and stared blankly.
"Xiaochuan! I'm so tired! I can't walk anymore!" Chi Ziheng panted and said weakly.
"You weakling, you should let Grandpa Fu give you a good training!" Shenwazi said leisurely without blushing or beating his heart.
Chi Ziheng couldn't help but admire this kid. His physical strength was simply amazing.
"Xiaochuan, who is Grandpa Fu? What is the purpose of the training?" Chi Ziheng asked curiously.
"Grandpa Fu is Brother Zhou's grandfather! He is a great general! When I am at home, he asks me to get up and exercise every morning!" Chanwazi said this with great pain.
I am different from ordinary people and I am strong even without practice. It is really a torture for me to be dug out of the bed by the old man to practice every day.
Fortunately, Shenwazi cooperated every day. Unfortunately, the old man also regarded Shenwazi's extraordinary physique, agility, and intelligence as the result of his own training, so he gradually increased the intensity of Shenwazi's training...
"Will you be that good if you practice every day?" Chi Ziheng asked with sparkling eyes.
"Of course! Our Haiguo soldiers are all trained that way, with iron-blooded hearts and loyal minds. Isn't that awesome?" Shenwazi said proudly.
