Rebirth of a Star General Chapter 67
Not listening to people
Rabbits cannot be hunted, foxes cannot be hunted, and birds cannot be hunted.
Nothing can be hunted, so a person can only “patrol the mountain” honestly.
Baiyue Mountain had rugged mountain roads, but the scenery was excellent. A cloud of white mist rose from the mountain stream, and emerald colors that could be seen at a glance surrounded it. The light of the spring and the clouds linger around the clothes. The peaks were twisted and stood tall as if they were in a fairyland.
The droopy-eyed guy was very clever. He took a few pieces of yellow paper with him and walked to a place. He used charcoal to draw a few steps on the yellow paper hastily. Everyone has to make a mark on the tree in any way, so as not to get lost, and don’t know how to go back down the mountain.
Because none of them brought crossbows, they walked very quietly along the way. They set off early in the morning, and after midday, they finally climbed to the top.
Everyone tied their horses to a tree, and there was a stream next to them, so they rested for a while by the stream. Only after they ate dry food and nourished themselves, could they go down the mountain and return to the guardhouse before the sun set.
The recruit who greeted He Yan was not too strong, and when he climbed to the top, he collapsed on the ground. He couldn’t wait to take out dry food to fill his stomach, and muttered, “Finally we reached the top, I can’t walk anymore.”
He Yan washed her hands by the stream, sat down on the stone beside him, and took out the dry food.
The dry food was dry bread that was delivered in the morning. It was dry and hard. The recruit came over, took a small handful of pine nuts from his pocket, and handed it to He Yan, “Here.”
He Yan was surprised, “Where did this come from?”
“Before I came to Liangzhou Wei, my mother gave me a load. I couldn’t bear to eat it all in one go and saved it.” He was a little bit reluctant and pretended to be generous, “Try it!”
He Yan picked up a grain from his palm and peeled it off, threw it into her mouth, and said, “Very fragrant.”
“Right, right?” The child was a little happy, “My name is Shen Hong, I know you, He Yan, you were so good at the martial arts field before, no one was able to beat you.”
“It’s a fluke, just good luck.” He Yan smiled.
Shen Hong looked at the distance with some regrets, “It’s a pity that I didn’t bring a crossbow. I didn’t know that you’ll be going with us. If I knew, I would definitely bring one. Your archery skills are so good. You could’ve hit a few rabbits with a crossbow and we could have eaten roasted rabbits.”
He and Mak, she was afraid that they are not half-brothers? He Yan thought, and asked casually, “What weapon did you bring?”
Shen Hong scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, “Me? I’m not good at archery, and it’s useless to bring bows and crossbows. Swordsmanship is also ordinary, spearman ship as well… I guess I won’t be of much use, so I took a…” He took out a long stick from behind, “this.”
He Yan was speechless.
He actually brought a stick, not an iron-headed stick, but a long stick sharpened from bamboo. Are there such weapons on the weapon racks in the martial arts field? He Yan doubted that Shen Hong’s stick was really useless. Oh, unless there was a date tree here, he could use this stick to hit dates.
When he saw He Yan’s speechlessness, Shen Hong quickly remedied it, “I won’t fight people, anyway.”
He Yan nodded, “You are right.”
She and Shen Hong were on this side, Droopy eyes and the other two were sitting on the other side slightly away from them. After eating, He Yan leaned against the tree to rest for a while, and Shen Hong asked her carefully, “Well, He Yan, can I borrow your knife?”
“What’s wrong?”
“Did you see that?” Shen Hong pointed to the green leaf by the stream. The leaves were long and thin, and there was no grass. He said, “Our house runs a medicine shop. This is called Shudai Cao. It looks like ‘scallion’ but it’s not ‘scallion’. It can refresh the eyes and soothe the mind. I want to pick a little and bring it back. We will be here all day long. Maybe we will be able to use it. But the grass is extremely tough and difficult to pick. Some of them are carrying either long knives or guns, which are not as good as your knives.”
This was to use her knife as a sickle.
He Yan, “…Let’s do it.” She pulled out the mandarin duck knife around her waist and handed it to Shen Hong, saying, “Be careful.”
Shen Hong put down the stick in his hand, took the knife happily, and said to He Yan, “Thank you, I will cut more, and I will give you a handful when finished.”
He Yan wanted to say no, but then she thought about Hong Shan. Hong Shan said that he was hot and couldn’t sleep well lately. Besides, it was also Shen Hong’s heart, so she has to swallow the words back into her stomach.
She leaned under the tree, and watched Shen Hong being busy.
As she looked around, He Yan suddenly heard movement behind her. When she looked at it again, it was the hanging eyes and the other two people who untied the horse ropes on the tree. He Yan was stunned and asked, “Are you going to leave now? Why not rest a little longer?”
After all, they stayed here for less than half an hour. It’s still early, and there is more than enough time to descend.
Droopy eyes didn’t seem to like He Yan very much, and was impatient to talk to her, “We don’t want to go down the mountain, we’ll be going ahead first for a walk.”
He Yan glanced at the front; they were at the top of the mountain now. To go ahead, they would turn over the top of the mountain. She frowned. “The instructor said that we couldn’t cross the mountain.”
“It’s just two more steps, not going to climb over,” Droopy eyes said, “I didn’t ask you to follow, you just stay here, we will come back later.”
“I think,” He Yan stood up, “It is better to listen to the instructor, maybe there is any danger.”
“Zheng Xuan, are you going to leave?” The other person had already untied the horse’s rope, turned over, got on the horse, and urged.
Hanging eyes—, that is, Zheng Xuan looked at He Yan and said, “You’re afraid of danger, so don’t go. Besides, only God knows, you know and I know, as long as you don’t say it, who will know? Don’t worry, stay with that fool, mow the grass, and have fun! We’ll go first.” After he said that, he ignored He Yan, turned on his horse, and walked deep into the jungle with the other two.
He Yan wanted to chase after him, but couldn’t put Shen Hong alone here. But while she was thinking, the three of them had already gone far. She sighed and sat down again under the tree. Just they didn’t find anything wrong all the way up the mountain. There were no people in the mountain, no big beasts, at most a few raccoon badger wild cats, and they drew far away when they saw people.
With the time of a cup of tea, Shen Hong came from the stream, and held a bundle of grass in each hand. The grass was really shaped like a scallion, long and soft, and there was a fragrance when you get close. Shen Hong found the longest one and tied the two large stacks of Shudai Cao, and handed them to He Yan. “Just this, go back and dry it under the sun, find a cloth bag, put it under the pillow to ensure a good sleep.”
He Yan said, “Thank you very much.”
“It’s okay.” Shen Hong waved his hand, only to realize that several other people had disappeared. He wondered, “Where are they?”
“Went for a walk.” He Yan shrugged, “Just wait for them to come back here.”
Shen Hong was puzzled and was about to ask questions. Suddenly, he heard a scream from the depths of the jungle. It was one of the recruits who had just been with them.
He Yan was startled, her eyebrows frowned, the next moment, she untied the rope and mounted her horse, and went straight in the direction of the sound.
