The whole mountain is my hunting ground

Zhao Jun came out of Li Baoyu's house, climbed over the wall and returned to his yard.

As soon as his feet hit the ground, both the flower dog and the green dog rushed out of the kennel, stretching their necks at the door and barking.

When Zhao Jun tilted his head and looked at the door, he heard someone shouting outside the courtyard: Who is leaving home?

The voice sounded familiar, but Zhao Jun could not remember who the owner of the voice was. When he went to the courtyard door to greet him, he saw a man wearing a homespun cotton-padded jacket, cotton trousers, a dog-skin hat on his head, and holding a A whip.

Hey, second brother-in-law! Zhao Jun called out when he recognized the person.

Zhao Jun is at home. The visitor saw someone at home, so he opened the courtyard door and walked in from the outside.

Zhao Jun waved to the two dogs. The flower dog and the green dog seemed to understand. They barked at the man twice more and then went back to the den with their big bellies.

This big belly was eaten on the mountain today, and it hasn’t been digested yet.

The visitor walked in front of Zhao Jun and said with a smile: Where are my uncle and aunt at home?

My mother is at home. Come on, second brother-in-law, let's go into the house and talk.

Zhao Jun let the man into the house. Wang Meilan, who was busy in front of the pot, saw this man and couldn't help but be startled, thinking: Why is he here?

But whoever comes is a guest, so Wang Meilan hurriedly stood up to greet the guests.

This visitor is Zhao Youcai's second uncle, Hu Manjiang, his brother-in-law, named Xing Zhiyong.

The Zhao and Hu families had a very good relationship. Zhao Jun called Xing Zhiyong his second brother-in-law based on Hu Manjiang's second daughter.

However, Xing Zhiyong rarely interacts with the Zhao family, so if he came to visit today, something must have happened.

After letting Xing Zhiyong into the room and getting on the Kang, Zhao Jun poured him some water. As an elder, Wang Meilan did not treat Xing Zhiyong politely and asked straight to the point: Why is Zhiyong so idle today?

Xing Zhiyong held the vat of hot water in his hands and covered his hands. After listening to Wang Meilan's words, he smiled and said, Aunt, what are you doing? The factory is busy now.

Xing Zhiyong lives in Yonglitun. He is an honest man, very capable of hard work and able to endure hardships.

Every year he plants in spring and harvests in autumn, but when winter comes and there is no life in the fields, he and his fellow villagers go to the forest farm to drive the sledge and pull the traps.

When Wang Meilan heard this, she was even more surprised and asked: We are busy, so why are you here?

Xing Zhiyong put down the water glass and said to Wang Meilan: Auntie, I want to borrow your big dog.

As soon as he said this, Wang Meilan and Zhao Jun looked at each other. Although they disapproved of their son's hunting, Wang Meilan also felt sorry for the big dog.

Therefore, Wang Meilan did not agree to Xing Zhiyong immediately, but asked: Zhiyong, why are you borrowing the dog?

I want to lead it to fight the black blind man. After Xing Zhiyong said this, he thought for a while and said: I have two dogs at home, but they don't recognize the black blind man. I heard my father-in-law say that there are eight villages in this ten miles. There is no alpha dog more powerful than our flower dog, and I want it to help me drag.

Wang Meilan smiled and asked: Do you know about Zhiyong? You are not familiar with this dog. If you take it, it will not work for you.

This... Xing Zhiyong glanced at Zhao Jun and then said to Wang Meilan: I heard that my brother is now very powerful. There are two black and blind men in the fall. Can you let him stay at my house for two years? sky?

When Zhao Jun heard this, he understood that Xing Zhiyong not only wanted to borrow dogs, but also wanted to borrow people.

When Wang Meilan heard this, she felt a little unhappy. She was originally unwilling to let Zhao Jun go hunting in the mountains, but now it's better. Zhao Jun is becoming more and more famous the more he fights, and there are people who come because of his reputation.

Your brother just went up the mountain today... Wang Meilan wanted to refuse at this time. She wanted to say that Zhao Jun had gone up the mountain to hunt today and had to rest at home.

Although this was not an explicit rejection, Wang Meilan believed that Xing Zhiyong could understand what she meant.

But before Wang Meilan could finish her words, Zhao Jun on the side suddenly spoke: Second brother-in-law, how did you get here?

Ah, I came here with the sledge. Xing Zhiyong responded.

That's good, let me go with you on the sledge. Zhao Jun ignored Wang Meilan's wink and agreed immediately.

Since he had the gun, he was preoccupied with dragging the dog and wondering where to find a black blind warehouse. Unexpectedly, Xing Zhiyong came to the door first.

Wang Meilan gave Zhao Jun a hard look, stood up and said, Why are we going? What time is it? Let your second brother-in-law eat before leaving.

Aunt, no need, Aunt. Xing Zhiyong stood up quickly and said, It's only what time it is. Let's have dinner. Let my brother come to my house to eat. Before I come, his sister will stay at home to prepare.

Mom, stop working. I'm calling Baoyu. Let's pack up and leave. After Zhao Jun finished speaking, he turned back to Xing Zhiyong and said, Second brother-in-law, you sit down first, and I'll call Baoyu.

Ah, okay. Xing Zhiyong was startled when he heard this. He came to invite Zhao Jun, not Li Baoyu. But Zhao Jun didn't give him a chance to speak. Now that Zhao Jun had already gone out, Xing Zhiyong couldn't stop him no matter what.

But Zhao Jun didn't care what Xing Zhiyong thought, he had been extra careful after what happened with Li Erchen.

To be honest, he couldn't trust the current Xing Zhiyong, so he had to bring Li Baoyu with him. Because he believed that no matter how dangerous it was, Li Baoyu would not escape alone and leave him alone.

Zhao Jun left the house and climbed over the wall to Li Baoyu's house. As soon as he entered the door, he heard Jin Xiaomei still scolding Li Ruhai, but he restrained himself and did not take any further action.

Li Baoyu, on the other hand, looked on happily.

Because Jin Xiaomei's scolding was so loud that Zhao Jun pushed the door open and came in, but no one in the room heard it.

In other words, the housekeeper has to be a dog. The big yellow dog was holding the bottle, but he still heard the noise and turned over to get up.

Li Baoyu reacted, hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold it down, and then looked toward the door.

Brother, why are you here? Li Baoyu asked.

Follow me?

What are you two going to do? It was Jin Xiaomei who asked.

Zhao Junlai stood in front of the kang, touched the big yellow dog's head, and said to Jin Xiaomei: Let's go to the Wynn for a walk.

After saying that, Zhao Jun saw the confusion on Jin Xiaomei's face and knew that Jin Xiaomei would not let Li Baoyu go with him unless he spoke clearly, so he should tell Jin Xiaomei and Li Baoyu about Xing Zhiyong's intention.

Then let's go! As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, Li Baoyu shouted to leave without thinking, while Jin Xiaomei rolled her eyes.

But she knew that she couldn't stop her son, who was already older anyway. The key is to hear Li Dayong say that Zhao Jun's marksmanship is not bad, and his son should be fine if he goes with him.

More importantly, Zhao Jun was very interested in Li Baoyu. Whether it was bear bile or lynx skin, no matter how expensive it was, he would give it to Li Baoyu.

Jin Xiaomei doesn't care about money, she cares more about the friendship between the two brothers.

Seeing that Jin Xiaomei stopped talking, Zhao Jun reached out and poked Li Baoyu and said, Then pack your things quickly.

Yeah, yeah. Li Baoyu nodded repeatedly, and then asked Jin Xiaomei: Mom, do you want to see if I'm wearing leggings?

Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu each have two pairs of leggings. But today when we were on the mountain, Li Baoyu used one pair to bandage the big yellow dog's wound, and the other pair was wet when he came back from hiking in the snow, and Jin Xiaomei took it and baked it in front of the wall of fire.

Let me take a look. Jin Xiaomei said and walked towards the outhouse.

At this time, Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu, and Li Ruhai were the only three people left in the room. Seeing Li Baoyu always looking at Li Ruhai, Zhao Jun asked in a low voice: What's going on?

Li Baoyu stared at Li Ruhai reluctantly and said to Zhao Jun without turning his head, I'm leaving now. I won't see my dad cutting him at night.

Zhao Jun:......

Li Ruhai:......

Zhao Jun smiled and said: Have you run away? Hurry up and get dressed and follow me. It's okay if you don't wear leggings. I'll ask Xing Zhiyong for them when I get there.

Li Baoyu smiled when he heard this and reached for his cotton-padded jacket.

At this time, Li Ruhai, who was huddled in the innermost corner of the kang, suddenly spoke.

Li Ruhai said: Brother Jun, can you take me there?

As soon as Zhao Jun heard this, he knew that this boy wanted to go out with him to avoid being beaten, but how could he accept this?

But just when Zhao Jun was about to refuse, he heard Li Baoyu next to him yell, Oh my God, your old son still wants to hunt with us!

What? Jin Xiaomei rushed in with two leggings, threw them away, raised her leg horizontally to take off a shoe, raised her leg vertically and got on the kang, swung the cotton shoe and shone at Li Ruhai. .

Okay, let's go. Zhao Jun bent down to pick up two leggings, pulled Li Baoyu who was watching the fun and walked out.
