With a wave of the machete in Tu Lin's hand, the snake's head was cut off, leaving only the twisted body of the snake, and then he pulled out the arrow.
On the other side, seeing that he had hit the target, Ruan Tang couldn't hold back anymore, jumped off the tree and ran towards Tu Lin.
"Tu Lin, are you okay?" Ruan Tang couldn't help but ask at this moment, even though he kept watching and didn't find that Tu Lin was injured by the wild boar, and the poisonous snake was also shot by him in time.
Tu Lin turned his head when he heard the voice, and saw Ruan Tang whose face was slightly pale, but still worried. He couldn't help laughing and said, "With you protecting me, nothing will happen to me." He wanted to pat Ruan Tang on the shoulder to comfort him. , but when he raised his hand, he saw a lot of wild boar blood splashed on his hand, so he had to give up.
"It's fine, it's fine." Ruan Tang saw that Tu Lin's expression was normal, although there was blood on his hands, but there was no trace of blood on his body, knowing that he was indeed not injured, he was relieved, and then found that his back After a burst of coolness, I realized that I was already covered in cold sweat at some point.
He lowered his head and glanced at the golden krait that fell to the ground and was completely dead at this time. Ruan Tang couldn't help frowning and said, "I don't know where the snake came from in this winter?" Tu Lin followed Ruan Tang's lead
. He lowered his head to look, but shrugged his shoulders meaninglessly, and said, "Probably because there was too much movement when I killed the wild boar, and it shook the snake's nest." Snakes hibernate in winter, and generally speaking, it is difficult
to They encountered it, but Tu Lin and the others not only encountered it, but also a highly poisonous golden krait, which is indeed very unreasonable. But there are many unreasonable things in the world, and Tu Lin himself is one of them, so he doesn't feel anything about the snake that appeared out of nowhere.
Regarding Tu Lin's statement, although Ruan Tang felt that it was somewhat improbable, he couldn't think of any other reasonable explanation, so he didn't say more, but after a moment of silence, he asked Tu Lin again: "You just... ...Why don't you hide?"
When he was young, he went into the mountains with his father, and was taught by his father to know this kind of snake, knowing that this snake is very poisonous. It's just that when he found the snake, he was too close to Tu Lin, so he didn't dare to make a sound, for fear that Tu Lin's movement would irritate the snake, just as the crossbow in his hand had already loaded the arrow, he shot it directly.
At that time, he didn't think that he could shoot the poisonous snake in one shot, but he just thought that when Tu Lin saw that he was shooting an arrow at him, he had to dodge to the side, so that he would naturally avoid the poisonous snake at the same time, but he didn't expect that Tu Lin was actually He didn't move at all, and he even shot the poisonous snake all at once.
Ruan Tang didn't dare to think now, what if he missed the poisonous snake, or even shot Tu Lin.
But Tu Lin smiled, with an extremely gentle expression, and said in a low voice: "I believe in you, you won't hurt me."
With a low, hoarse voice, it was full of trust that Ruan Tang couldn't ignore, and he didn't hide it. The friendship made him feel at a loss again, he pursed his lips, not knowing what to do.
Fortunately, Tu Lin understood the principle of step by step. He never thought of persecuting Ruan Tang. What he wanted was to invade Ruan Tang's heart little by little, and gradually increase his weight until Ruan Tang treated him Can't let it go anymore. He has enough patience, he believes that the day he is looking forward to and Ruan Tang will be happy will not be too far away.
Today's firewood was almost cut, so Tu Lin and Ruan Tang planned to go back. Because the whole wild boar was not easy to carry, Tu Lin picked up the wild boar on the spot.
He had done a lot of this work in his previous life, but he was familiar with it, and within half an hour, he had it all cleaned up. A whole wild boar, with the pig's blood removed, was divided into more than ten parts, including a pig's head, four pig's legs, a pig's tail, two ribs, and several pieces of pure pork.
Ruan Tang led the mule, while Tu Lin carried a load of firewood and wild boar tied with vines on his back, and they went down the mountain together.
When they got home, the two rested for a while, and then went out together with a portion of wild boar. There was too much wild pork. There were only three members of Tu Lin's family, and they couldn't finish it in a short time. After a long time, it would be stale and easy to spoil, so they decided to send some to people who were close and friendly. The first one to go was the home of the village head, Sun Jinlai.
Tu Lin and others have been able to settle down in Zhuxi Village in a stable manner, and have successfully settled down. The village head, Sun Jinlai, has helped a lot and is very kind. Tu Lin also has the heart to make friends.
Sun Jinlai was surprised at first when Tu Lin, who had no festivals and festivals, suddenly delivered meat, but he couldn't help being very surprised when he heard that Tu Lin said it was wild boar, or a wild boar he had killed himself.
It's nothing else, but I didn't expect that Tu Lin, looking honest and honest, could kill an adult wild boar by himself. This is Ruan Tang's father - an old hunter who has been hunting for decades. No, but thinking about Tu Lin's natural strength, he can easily deal with seven or eight strong men by himself, and it seems that killing a wild boar is not so difficult to accept.
Although it is said that there is no reward for no merit, Tu Lin personally came to deliver the meat, and Sun Jinlai still accepted the meat, but he thought to himself that Tu Lin and his family are small, so they must take care of them more in the future, and help if they can is.
After leaving Sun's house, Tu Lin and Ruan Tang went to Zhao's house again. Although wild pork is not expensive, it is also rare. Now that outsiders have given it, Tu Xinmei and Zhao Changping, as sisters and husbands, are naturally indispensable.
It's just that Tu Lin was negligent. After Tu Xinmei knew that the wild boar was actually obtained by Tu Lin killing a wild boar, she couldn't help being angry and afraid, and directly scolded Tu Lin. Reluctant to accept it.
Although he was scolded for nothing, Tu Lin knew that Tu Xinmei did this because he was worried about herself, so he didn't take it to heart. In order to appease Tu Xinmei, Tu Lin promised that he would not put himself in danger again, which made Tu Xinmei feel relieved. I'm a little angry.
Soon, another few days passed, and during this period, Tu Lin discovered an obvious thing, that is, compared with before, Ruan Tang talked to himself a lot less, not only that, sometimes he would Avoiding his own line of sight, Tu Lin was very happy with this.
Although they didn't get along for a long time, Tu Lin knew very well that Ruan Tang was a person who wouldn't procrastinate as long as he made up his mind. If he really couldn't accept himself, he would have made it clear to himself early on, instead of avoiding himself everywhere like he is now.
Ruan Tang's behavior just shows that he has left a deep enough mark in his heart, and this kind of mark makes Ruan Tang hesitate, not knowing how to treat him, not knowing whether he should accept him, so naturally I can no longer get along with him casually like in the past.
Because of this, even though Tu Lin saw the change in Ruan Tang, he didn't say much, he just waited silently, waiting for the day when he could finally get his wish. However, what Tu Lin didn't expect was that that day came sooner than he imagined, but it also made him suffer from anxiety.
Since he was going to the county town to deliver charcoal to Zhou's family, Tu Lin dropped by to send Tu An to the academy this morning. After seeing Tu An successfully entered the college, and went to Zhou's house to deliver the charcoal, he didn't delay any longer in the county seat, and drove the mule cart back to the village. The householder walked out, followed by two young men, a man and a woman who should have seen him off.
Among them, Tu Lin recognized the young man. He was the young man named Qiu Cheng among the two villagers who came to help when they first moved here, while the other was a very strange man who looked only in his early twenties. woman.
The woman has a handsome appearance, but her face is a little pale, and she looks a little haggard. At this time, she is slightly lowering her head and talking to Ruan Tang, who has a very gentle smile on her face. Seeing this scene, Tu Lin subconsciously slowed down.
After Ruan Tang finished talking with the woman, and said a few words to Qiu Cheng, as if to say goodbye, and then turned around and walked towards home, he quickened his pace and chased after Ruan Tang.
The two were only twenty meters away from each other at first, and Ruan Tang was not walking fast, so Tu Lin quickly caught up. He wanted to ask Ruan Tang who the woman he was talking to just now was, but the words came to his lips. When he was about to speak, he found that Ruan Tang frowned slightly, looking a little preoccupied. He couldn't help but swallowed the words back, and then asked He said: "What's the matter? Has something happened?"
Hearing Tu Lin's voice, Ruan Tang subconsciously turned his head to look over, and then said in a daze, "You're back." "
Yes." Tu Lin nodded, and then Asked again: "You look a bit unwell, is something wrong?"
Ruan Tang opened his mouth, was about to speak but stopped as if he suddenly thought of something, hesitation appeared in his eyes, and he was silent for a moment Finally, in the end, he still didn't say anything to Tu Lin, just shook his head, and said with a slight smile, "I'm fine."
Tu Lin pursed his lips, and said with a smile, "...it's good that I'm fine."
Ruan Tang It was obvious that there was something to hide from him, but Ruan Tang didn't want to say it, and he couldn't force him to ask, so he could only make another plan. So when he got home, he talked to Ruan Tang and went out to Zhao's house to find Tu Xinmei.
Ruan Tang no longer has any relatives in the village, and there is nothing wrong with their family of three. Thinking about the fact that Ruan Tang's expression was wrong after he came out of the Qiu family, and the Qiu family and the Ruan family had always been on good terms in the past, Qiu Cheng and Ruan Tang was still young, so although Ruan Tang didn't say anything, Tu Lin could guess that something happened to the Qiu family.
In this way, even if Ruan Tang disagreed with him, it would not be difficult to find out from the village, including the identity of the woman, so Tu Lin came to Zhao's house to ask Tu Xinmei first.
