Chapter 267: Smoke Rises

The young man walking through the forest looked up slightly, and there was still some poisonous sun in the sky. Sweat had already soaked the back of his shirt. Covered in mud, he was carrying a bulging bag of hemp cloth and walked towards the empty space of this small forest not far ahead.

The boy was a little out of place, and his wide coat was already very shabby, and the pulp was washed white. But at this time, because of the mud and blood stains all over the body, the original appearance of the shampoo white clothes was hidden. A linen strap, also covered with mud, was tied around the boy's waist. On this also somewhat worn linen belt, a black iron knife was stuck diagonally. A hunting bow hung diagonally behind the boy, and a leather quiver was stacked on top of it. This leather bag is also some years old, and the leather has worn a lot of broken skin. In the sac, more than a dozen feather arrows with bifurcated tails were tied and placed in them.

Because of the heat, the young man was carrying his shoulders, and when he hurried with bloodstains and hemp cloth bags, he had already untied his front arms, revealing his solid chest. At the same time, a tooth ornament made of red linen rope was also revealed, hanging around his neck. Although he traveled all the way, he didn't rest much. But his steps remained the same, slowed down a little by the long journey. At this time, he was a mind, just wanted to hurry back to Tunzi, see his second sister, look at Sister Erya'er in Tunkou, and when he came back, he happily rushed forward and walked back to Tunzi with him, but this was the motivation and reason for urging him to hurry back to Tunzi

When Xin Huzi thought of Sister Erya'er, who was waiting in Tunkou'er, she looked happy after seeing her, but her heart couldn't help but feel warm. The fatigue of these days feels much lighter. This time he went out hunting, but he hunted a deer, and it was not a small deer! Although it is a doe and has no horns to cut, this deer is really not small! It is only during this year that such fat deer can be hunted when the forest is at its fattest. In addition, it was also easy to hunt a few fat rabbits and pheasants in the forest, and they were roasted and eaten by fire, leaving only a few rabbit leashes to bring back. When I go back this time, I really can't stay longer. I'm afraid that if I rest for two or three days, I will have to rush to the mountains and forests again, and I can't waste it in vain, this is the best time of the year to hunt.

I thought that Uncle Calf also estimated that it was time to help the little fifth brother come back from the eldest sister. It was also just when he went out hunting, with Uncle Calf. When the short autumn is over, let the second sister and the aunt of the Niu family dry more hunted meat, and the weather will gradually get colder. In a short time, it will be the longest ice knife day of the year. At that time, it was a little difficult to go hunting. Moreover, after the short autumn, I have to go to the salt house in Niushifang and find Mr. Wu to exchange the hunted skins for some salt

Gradually, the young man's footsteps followed, and he slowed down a little when he thought of going to the salt house in the cattle market and exchanging his skin for salt. But he couldn't help but think about it again, he didn't want to think about things that he didn't want to think about, as long as he thought about something related to her, he couldn't help but feel that there was something in his heart, and inexplicable boredom hit his heart.

He didn't know what this inexplicable boredom was. But he knew that it was boring, but it was because he thought of her again. It was over, and he tried not to let himself think about her anymore. After all, she had left this forest and gone to the distant place in the Guannai that he would never go to in his life, although he would also go to see his master when he went to the Bull Market. But he didn't ask her how she was doing now, and he only heard something about her in the Guan Nei from the master, but he only said a few words

But there was one thing, but he didn't understand it until later, but he had to start by going to the salt house and looking for Old Man Wu to change the salt. But not long after she went to Guannai, the poor leader who was in charge of this forest was changed. I heard that the new errand leader is an elderly errand officer. And the former leader who detained the salt in the forest was driven out of the government after that, and because he was greedy for a lot of money, he really suffered a lot. The two of them were also kicked out of the government after they were whipped. From Old Man Wu, when he heard this, he couldn't help but think of the words she asked herself that day when she was applying wound medicine in her room. She would understand why, she would ask herself if she wanted to know, why she didn't punish the son of the poor family who instigated the errand behind her back and beat herself with a whip

There was a new bad guy in the forest, which also made Old Man Wu very happy. This new bad guy is a good one. As soon as he came, the trade of salt that had been deducted by the former poor leader was exchanged for skins, and it was restored from two and a half shovels reduced by half to the original three shovels of salt. And the monthly salary and salt given to Mr. Wu are no longer as before, and they have to be exploited by the poor boss, and they have all received the full salary. On the contrary, because of the trade of salt and skin, it has returned to the previous three shovels, and everyone in the forest is very satisfied with the new bad man.

All of this happened after she left Lao Lin and went to Guannai, and the reason why all this happened was for herself

"What do you think! What do you think!! ”

While talking to himself, the young man shook his head a few times. so that the person who gradually appeared in his mind shook it out of his head again.

A trace of guilt for Sister Erya'er also rose in Xin Huzi's heart again when he thought of that person. Now he has a second sister. also told Sister Er Ya'er that he would definitely hunt five different rare skins for her and marry her. And now he is also working hard for himself, the five skins promised to Sister Erya'er. Although a few months ago, when he was hunting in the Kidnapping Mountain, he accidentally hunted a very rare white fox skin. But that piece of skin was in order to exchange some big money for Sister Erya'er, and sold it to the person who met in the abductor mountain. Although it was a pity that I couldn't regard the rare white fox skin as one of the five skins that I married to my second sister. But seeing that Sister Er Ya'er is very precious, the hairpin that she gave her with a lot of money in the Niushi Fang, but she couldn't help but be happy because Sister Er liked it.

The slow pace gradually accelerated. After a while, Xin Huzi walked out of the forest and walked towards the mountain road that he was already familiar with. The sun also followed Xin Huzi through the mountains, roads and forests everywhere, and gradually slanted westward. As the sun set in the west, the sky gradually became dark.

"Huh?! What's that?! ”

It wasn't until Xin Huzi got closer and closer to his own tunzi that a small black line seemed to be drawn between heaven and earth, and he was also caught in his eyes in a hurry. Seeing the black line that he had never seen before, Xin Huzi couldn't help but wonder to himself.

Immediately after him, he found that the direction drawn by the black line was the Tunzi he wanted to go back to! But it also made his heart more strange, but this black line was gradually been, Xin Huzi saw the fame, it was actually a puff of black smoke rising slowly If this smoke really floated from Tunzi, such a big black smoke should not be in Tunzi, that family can cook unless something happens!

Thinking of this Xin Huzi's heart, he couldn't help but feel tight. He had really heard of the old story that the whole tunzi was burned due to a fire! Don't start a fire in Tunzi! Burn the whole tunzi! Thinking of the fire in Tunzi, I couldn't help but worry about everyone in Tunzi! Immediately, Xin Huzi didn't care about the burlap bag full of skin and flesh that he was carrying. As soon as he threw the bag, he ran in the direction of the black smoke and the direction in which he was going to return to Tun!

Sister Eryaer! Uncle Calf! Aunt Cow! Sister Finch! Brother Kuroko! You guys, don't do anything to you! Xin Huzi, who was running as fast as a fly, got closer and closer to the place where the black smoke rose, and saw the thick black smoke floating in the sky more and more clearly. But I couldn't help but keep chanting the names of everyone in the tunzi

Familiar faces flashed from his mind one by one as he kept running. Sweat flowed faster and faster, from his head, face, and body as he ran. Even if he was anxious several times because of the anxiety in his heart, he didn't pay attention to the stone under his feet, and almost tripped over the stone. He still didn't pause in the slightest, and continued to run in the direction of the black smoke rising!

While running, he also thought that the other thing that emitted black smoke might be the most dangerous wildfire in the mountain forest! After all, in this short autumn season, the grass and trees in the forest have become dry. But it is the most likely time of the year for wildfires in the old forest! No matter how fierce the objects in the forest are, if they can't escape from the wildfire, they can only be burned alive by the wildfire in the end! And around his own tunzi, there is a lot of mountains and forests!

I thought that there might be a wildfire in the woods around Tunzi! Xin Huzi's hanging heart, worried about everyone in the tunzi, still did not let go of it. He knew that even if it was really a mountain fire in the mountains and forests around Tunzi, and it wasn't a fire in Tunzi, it would be just as bad!

After all, this wildfire doesn't have eyes! If it really burned along the grass and trees to the tunzi, it wouldn't be something that everyone in the tunzi could stop! Wildfires don't make sure you're a human being or an object in the woods!

Gradually, a small spot of billowing black smoke appeared in front of Xin Huzi's eyes! Looking at the place where the black smoke was rising, it was a little far away, but Xin Huzi's heart suddenly tightened! With his excellent eyesight, which is even beyond ordinary people's eyesight, he can see at a glance that the little dot of billowing black smoke is not the Tunzi he wants to go back to?!
