As soon as she was about to go out, Aunt Niu walked in with a vegetable basket and glanced at Tang Ning, Aunt Niu smiled and said, "If your Uncle Niu doesn't go into the mountain today, he still has something to do tomorrow." So my aunt went up the hill with a small stone to pick some wild vegetables.

Ning'er, have you and your master ever learned how to make vegetable paste? ”

The world is big, and the stomach is the largest. Tang Ning could only let go of Lao Li's thoughts, nodded and smiled: "This is simple, just give it to your nephew!" ”

Shepherd's cabbage is very common and can be found all over the ground. It's also relatively easy to make, cut into pieces and throw them into the pot to cook. When the juice is boiling, pour it out, pour it into the white rice porridge that has been prepared on the side and stir, take out the vegetable leaves and put them in everyone's bowl, and the vegetable paste is finished.

The plum drooled so much that Tang Ning gave her the first bowl with a smile, and told her to eat it slowly, it was hot just out of the pot.

What Niu San is holding is not a bowl, but a basin. His task is rather arduous, when he is at home, he has to do all the work of chopping wood and fetching water, and when he is not at home, he has to go hunting in the mountains and forests, and he should eat more.

However, when Xiao Shi also came over casually with a basin bigger than his head, Tang Ning couldn't understand it.

"Can you finish it?"

"Why can't you finish eating? Can you not always treat me like a child! ”

Tang Ning had no choice but to pour the vegetable juice into the basin of small stones.

Aunt Niu ate with a smile and didn't say a word. Li Zi snorted and ate two bites to cushion his stomach, then took another bowl on the stove, and ran back to Lao Li Tou's house with a small wooden spoon.

After Niu San took two bites, he sighed, took the basin and said: "It is said that the same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, but I didn't believe it before." Since I met Brother Ning, I have learned that some people are destined to be big officials.

A bowl of wild vegetable paste can make me feel no different from the food in the restaurant, just this ability, where is it not sought after? ”

Aunt Niu glanced at the inexplicable Tang Ning, and said with a smile: "The point is, this kid himself is a particular person." Didn't you see that he never drank the water we brought back directly, and he always had to boil it in a pot before he was willing to drink it? In our family, he didn't have a stomach. ”

"Aunt Niu! My nephew told you you not to drink raw water! It's you who want to drink it yourself, and no one at home listens to me! ”

"Okay, okay, auntie, it's not right, before our family drinks water in the future, we must boil it, okay?"

Tang Ning walked away with two empty buckets, and Aunt Niu's every word seemed to be mocking herself, although she knew that Aunt Niu didn't mean that, but it was still weird in Tang Ning's ears.

When he came to the edge of the stream, Tang Ning suddenly realized that this stream was the stream that he had escaped from under the tiger.

Why don't you go back along this creek and see if there is a way home where you just arrived?

This thought came out of his life like a spring weed growing wildly in Tang Ning's mind, and it lingered no matter what. Even the ferocious tiger, and the big bear, couldn't let this idea go up in smoke.

Before he knew it, Tangning found that he had begun to move his steps. The desire to go home was so strong that it was already an instinct in his body. For countless nights, Tang Ning sat on the wooden pier outside the house and looked at the moon in the sky while crying, and didn't he just want to go home?

In a moment of thought, Downing had already walked back to the place where Orion had first picked it up. This surprised him a little, according to Orion, this place was at least two miles from the village, or even farther, and he had come here after such a while?

He took off his clothes and formed a ball, threw them to the opposite bank with all his might, and then carried two buckets into the water himself.

This time, there was no tiger staring at the back of the buttocks, and Tang Ning was much more comfortable.

In the scorching heat, the water of this creek is not cold, but it can still bring a touch of coolness to Downing in this sultry weather. Downing crossed the stream on tiptoe and found that he had grown a little taller. The stream had not been above his chin before, but now it was on the tip of his chin.

If that's the case, the age of my body this year will be sixteen years old. At the age of sixteen, Downing's size suddenly jumped. At the age of eighteen, he had already become a big guy of 1.8 meters.

When he arrived on the other side, Tang Ning was a little nervous, God knows if the mountain king would suddenly find him again. I shook off the water stains on my body and wiped it with my pants. But the end of the ponytail at the back of his head was stuck to Downing's back because it was stained with water and refused to leave. Downing reached out and pulled the ponytail together, then draped his clothes over his body. Leaving the two buckets where they were, he took a deep breath and walked forward.

I always have to take a look at it anyway, and even if I don't, it's my own thoughts.

A herd of wild boars ran not far in front of Downing, and a rabbit stood up straight, with its ears erect high, looking at Downing cautiously. Not far away, there were one or two sika deer, also looking at Tang Ning, an outsider, with vigilant eyes.

Tang Ning didn't stop, he saw the tree that had been hiding from the bear before, thinking of the leeches all over the ground that day, Tang Ning's scalp was fried, and he hurriedly walked forward.

After a while, Tang Ning came to the place where he had fallen into this world, and looked around, but Tang Ning was disappointed not to find the door.

Since there is none, then I don't force it, and the reason why I have to take a look is also to dispel the idea of going home.

With a miserable laugh, Tang Ning turned to leave, but his eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of a corner of the cornice in the forest.

Downing's heart pounded.

Last time, it was probably because the bear was chasing him, so he didn't notice it. This time, Tang Ning rubbed his eyes and looked over carefully, that corner of the cornice, it would definitely be a thatched hut and there would be nothing wrong.

Would you like to check it out? Tang Ning hesitated.

According to Niu San's words, this realm at the feet of Tang Ning is a place where even wild beasts dare not swagger inside. There were many beasts in the mountains, and he had observed them on the other side of the stream, and there were more than two tigers that came to draw water.

Therefore, Niu San has always hunted on the other side, but he has never set foot here.

Tang Ning was afraid that he had delayed for too long, and he would be found by the smell of the tiger. But curiosity was so great that Downing wanted to know what kind of person could live in such a place.

The structure of the thatched hut is similar to that of the escaped village, with a base and walls made of stones, with several wooden beams placed horizontally on the top, and the four corners of the house are supported by four tall wooden stakes.

It's just that the stones on the walls of this house are smoother than the walls of all the huts in the village. Although the size is still different, it already has the feeling of planting bricks.

He also seems to be a particular person. Downing thought as he looked outside the hut.

Without rushing in, he walked around the house first, and Tang Ning found that behind the thatched hut, there was a small piece of cultivated land. This is very similar to the fugitive village, maybe the owner here is also a fugitive.

There was no crop in the farmland, and the hoe was set aside, and the corners of the walls were covered with cobwebs. This means that the owner's family has not cultivated the land for a long time, and this means that the owner's family has long since stopped living here.

For fugitives, their own arable land is crucial. Their main source of food, in addition to hunting and wild fruits and vegetables, is the grain harvested in these fields. A runaway who doesn't go to the plough is no different from dying - except, of course, someone like Niu San who can hunt things every day. Aren't the other fugitives in the village also honest farmland?

Thinking of this, Tang Ning went around to the hut, knocked on the door to show respect, and prepared to go directly to see what was going on inside the house.

Before he could think of it, the crooked knuckles had just touched the small wicker door, and it opened the door at once. With a squeak, Tang Ning fell to the ground with a scream after seeing the scene inside.

A skeleton leaned against the wall facing the gate, its body obscured by the robes he was wearing, and the two hollow eye sockets on the skull stared straight in the direction of the gate.

It's also scary! Tang Ning was covered in cold sweat. But besides the skeleton, Downing noticed something else.

For example, a small table in the room, with dusty paper on the table, and a pen holder covered in cobwebs.

This discovery surprised Downing inexplicably. Not long ago, I lied to Aunt Niu, saying that I lived in the mountains with my master. It's okay for this statement to be used to deceive Niu San and deceive Aunt Niu, but if he goes out of the mountain in the future, this statement can't fool those smart people.

This little hut is simply a pillow sent to me when I am sleeping. It doesn't matter who the person who lived in this house before, and whether he is a good person or a bad person, from this moment on, he is Tang Ning's master, who said that he is not in a hurry.

Tang Ning took a deep breath, knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Master is above, be worshiped by the apprentice!" Then there was a thump and three bangs.

The skull rolled off the skeleton's body, and under Downing's frightened gaze, the bones rolled under Downing's body. The pair of hollow eyes looked at Tang Ning, which made Tang Ning suddenly have the feeling of an old man with a fairy wind and bones, looking at himself with a smile.

Since he is already his master, he can't let his master's remains continue to be exposed to the air. Tang Ning took the hoe behind the house, dug a pit in front of the house, and carefully put the master's bones into the pit.

But the process is very difficult. God knows how long it has been since Master and his old man died, and as soon as he touched it, his body shattered with a bang.

Tang Ning did not systematically study medicine and did not know much about human bones. I can only roughly spell out the shape of a person, as for whether the arm is placed on the thigh, I don't care too much about the old man when I think of the master, anyway, it is my own object, where is it not the same use?

After burying the master and wiping the sweat from his forehead, Tang Ning only felt a burst of heat. Fortunately, the hut is under the shade of trees on the left and right, and the scorching sun does not shine in, and the occasional breeze can feel a little cooler.

There was nothing else left in the house, and there was not much left of a bag of white rice, and even the ones that were left were already crawling with rice worms. Downing sighed and reached out to pick up the dusty paper at the top of the table.

Taking a deep breath to dry the dust on it, Tang Ning came outside the house, carefully identified the heroic and unrestrained handwriting on it, and after reading it for a long time, Tang Ning's brain was sweating again, this may be the wild grass of legend, most of the paper full of paper is not recognized.

The only recognizable sentence is:

"Ze Wushui gentleman is deadly and willing." Tang Ning read this sentence softly, confused in his heart.
