Chapter 30 The plan went wrong (please follow up)
At noon.
Chen Lin went out with a hatchet and a backpack, and then walked a few steps in the snow.
I heard the room next to me suddenly open.
Auntie poked her head out, as if she was expecting something.
After seeing it was him, he forced out another smile:
“Alin still wants to go into the mountains today?”
“Well, you don’t have to hunt when you go into the mountains to find something.” Chen Lin smiled back, then looked at the anxiety between his aunt’s brows, and had an idea in his mind.
“Auntie is waiting for Uncle Ping?”
“Well,” the aunt sighed, “it stands to reason that he should be back in the next few days.”
“He told me before that if the logging goes well, he might be able to come back before the year...”
“I’m already in the second grade of junior high school now!”
Chen Lin can understand his aunt's mood.
It was Uncle Ping's first time to go logging in the mountains with someone, and he bought a place to go in. If something unexpected happened, this small family might not be able to afford it.
In my memory, Uncle Ping was a very good man. He repeatedly persuaded his father, a bad gambler, to stop.
“It’s probably just that the wood was cut slowly and delayed. There are so many people in the logging team, and it’s rare for anything to happen.”
Chen Lin couldn't immediately pull Uncle Ping back from the snowy mountains, so he could only offer a few token words of comfort and find an appropriate time to say goodbye.
Walked to the mountain pass.
He first looked up at the sky.
The sky is gray today and there is a possibility of snow.
Although it is already the first month, the cold winter in Xiaojinshan has not completely passed yet.
In my memory, it will be at least February before the snow in the mountains starts to melt.
“This trip is just for scraping tree bark. I’ll probably come back in the afternoon. It shouldn’t snow yet.”
Chen Lin kept walking through the mountain pass with his mind in mind.
Looking up, I found a figure sitting on the big rock opposite.
A burly man like Chen Xiangyuan, with a full beard and an old look. He looked like a gangster with a knife stuck in his waist.
Just looking at this physique, for a moment, he thought that Chen Xiangyuan ran into the mountains to block him...
this person?
Chen Lin's mind was telegraphed.
But the person opposite had already spoken first:
“You must be Chen Lin!”
"The junior brother Xiangyuan mentioned is me. Hurry up and lead the way. First, take me to the place where the ghost-toothed pig was found. What is it called Beisong Ridge?"
…”
Chen Lin didn't speak. He was wondering where he had offended that Chen Xiangyuan.
“Hey! Why are you so dazed? You don’t want to earn three taels of silver anymore?”
The big man stared and jumped down from the stone, like a big bear landing on the ground, his two feet made two pits in the two inches of snow.
Snowflakes were flying for a while.
Chen Lin sighed secretly and said:
"Hero, didn't your senior brother say you want to go to the Ice Cave? He also told me that I thought it was quiet there and it might be the den of the Ghost-toothed Pig."
"Ah! Oh, that's what I told my senior brother, but now I want to go to that mountain first."
grass!
Chen Xiangyuan, who is so stupid, actually found someone to go to the mountains to block me!
Chen Lin's heart skipped a beat, but he calmly said:
“Let’s go to the Ice Cave first, and then go to Beipong Ridge after going there, so it’s a convenient way.”
“Go, go, go, listen to you, you are the guide!”
“Then let’s walk along the north side first.”
“Okay, okay.”
The strong man walked carelessly in front.
Behind him, Chen Lin held a hatchet and reached out to touch his arms.
…
…
County town.
Chen Xiangyuan patted the door of Junior Brother Han's house, but there was no response for a long time. Apparently no one was at home.
“This idiot!”
He couldn't help but curse angrily.
Staying here any longer will be of no use.
Chen Xiangyuan simply turned around and left, walking all the way towards his home. His mind was in chaos and he didn't know what to think.
“Get out of the way!” Suddenly there was shouting from the other side of the street, and the riding whip crackled in the air.
The sound of rolling wheels was mixed with the sound of people fleeing in fear.
Chen Xiangyuan looked up and found that it was the He family's carriage that he was familiar with.
The person sitting above should be Mr. He.
Because there was a sika deer and ocelot hanging on the driver's side.
I don’t know why this rich young man suddenly fell in love with hunting.
But if this were not the case, I would not be able to reach the level of these wealthy households...
Just thinking about it in my mind.
The carriage passed quickly and then slowly stopped.
The house slave’s shout came from the front of the car:
“Chen Xiangyuan, Master wants you to get in the car!”
"good!"
Chen Xiangyuan did not expect that the carriage would stop suddenly, so he quickly followed it.
Boarding his head and boarding the luxurious carriage.
The decoration inside the carriage has been replaced by various animal skins.
The strange-looking young master of the He family held the two beauties in his arms and said carelessly: "Chen Xiangyuan, do you recognize Fan Yoshi, the man who beat the ghost-toothed pig?"
“...can be considered acquaintance.” Chen Xiangyuan was stunned for a moment, then asked tentatively: “Is the young master looking for him to ask about the ghost tooth pig?”
“Yes, he must have some kind of hunting secret. I plan to ask him for advice, and then go into the mountains to find the ghost-tusked pig.”
“It would be such an honor for him!”
"Stop talking about this, since you know him, then when I go to the mountain market to deal with today's prey, you can take me to see him."
“Okay.” Chen Xiangyuan did not dare to refuse at all.
At the same time, my heart couldn’t help but sink.
He turned his head and looked outside, seeing the ugly faces of passers-by who were trying to avoid him in fear.
The various pavilions in the city also flashed by in the small windows.
The carriage is heading towards the mountain city.
One month ago.
At that time, I was riding a tall horse, majestically leading the way in front of the carriage, and took Mr. He to Xiaojinshan for hunting.
At that time, I met Chen Lin at the mountain pass.
He casually said that Chen Lin usually had no money and lived a difficult life. As a result, Mr. He became so kind that he allocated ten taels of silver to give to Chen Lin.
Just after returning to the county town, Mr. He bumped into Chen Lin buying this and that in the mountain market, carrying a bunch of things in his hand...
It took him a lot of effort and good words to get around this detour.
I thought things would just end like this.
The twelve taels of silver reward that was supposed to be given to Chen Lin, but the young master did not take it back, so he swallowed it himself.
After all, he is just a woodcutter in the mountains.
In this life, I will never have the opportunity to talk to a noble like Master He.
That’s what he thought at that time.
But what he didn't expect was.
After that, Chen Lin went to the mountain market every day to sell snakes.
In just a few days, the reputation spread all over the mountain city, and there is no sign of letting up until now.
Even when people talk about snakes, they will mention Chen Lin’s name.
If that’s all it is...
The key is-
This Mr. He not only likes hunting, but also goes to the mountain market to sell the prey he catches!
Moreover, recently this hunter has often asked himself to find some famous hunters to meet with him.
If this continues, sooner or later he will notice Chen Lin.
At that time, I will no longer be able to hide the fact that I have embezzled ten taels of silver.
The more Chen Xiangyuan thought about it, the heavier he felt.
He thought of Junior Brother Han whom he had arranged for, and he was probably blowing the wind at the mountain pass.
“Make a new plan another day.”
“Just blind him.”
"You are a useless person like this. From now on, stay in the house and don't come out to harm others..."
