Soft and crispy waist

Chapter 155 Her man is more than just a hunter

The woman who followed the hunter shouted and quickly walked forward, squatted down, and reached out to Xia Zheng's trouser leg.

She was very fast and had great strength due to years of working in the mountains. As soon as Xia Zheng retreated, she grabbed her trouser leg and lifted it up.

Even through the socks, you can see that the ankle is swollen, and there is a cut on the white socks at some point. The blood coming out of the ankle is dyed red, actually dark red.

"Ah! You were cut off by the neck vine!"

"Neck-wrapping vine?" Xia Zheng asked. The mountain roads she had been following Gu Yizi on had just been leveled, and she had never stepped on any deep grass. How could she be cut by something like a vine?

"Is this your first time on this mountain?" The woman looked up at the two of them, then lowered her head to pull down Xia Zheng's socks while explaining, "There are a lot of neck-wrapping vines on this mountain. They're sinister and pungent. They're called vines, but they're actually poisonous insects. They can sense people and will crawl over if you stay near them for even a moment. Their sharp mouths can cut through thin clothes, and they bite you without you even realizing it. By the time you feel the pain, the poison has taken effect, and it's like being wrapped around your neck, making it impossible to breathe."

After the woman said this, Xia Zheng indeed felt that her breathing was not so smooth. She had thought that she was tired from walking all the way here, but she didn't expect that she was poisoned.

"But you are really lucky. This is a blessing in disguise. I will go find some herbs for you."

The woman stood up and was about to leave, but when she turned around, she saw Gu Yizi had stood in front of her man from beside Xia Zheng at some point.

He was tall and his body completely blocked his manhood, so he couldn't see Xia Zheng at all, let alone her ankles.

The woman smiled knowingly, then quickly ran to the woods ahead. After searching in the deep grass for a while, she pulled out a few plants.

Xia Zheng also recognized one of the grasses, which was Qingyou grass. It had the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. It was often used to make cold water or Qingyou tofu in summer.

The other strains are probably also detoxifying.

After all, Gu Yizi took a look and did not stop the woman from beating the herbs with stones.

After pounding a few herbs into a paste, the woman casually tore off a step of her undershirt, spread the herbs on it, and applied it to Xia Zheng's wound. She tied it tightly and pulled up her socks. She lowered her trouser legs before standing up and saying with a smile, "Alright, I added some anti-swelling and blood stasis medicine in it. The poison and swelling will be gone tomorrow."

After hearing this, Gu Yizi moved aside to free the hunter's sight.

Xia Zheng moved her ankle and found that the pain had subsided and her breathing had improved. She nodded and thanked him, "Thank you, sister-in-law. If I hadn't met you today, I wouldn't have known I was bitten by a poisonous insect."

"There's no need to thank me or not. We're all just people walking in the mountains and forests, so it's inevitable that we'll encounter difficulties. We're just helping each other. You never know when we might need your help."

Xia Zheng nodded and smiled, indicating her approval.

"It's almost noon. If you don't plan to go back, you can go to the hunter's farm on the mountainside to eat and rest, but you need to bring some prey."

"Your accuracy with the crossbow is so good, I advise you not to go back. Many animals will come out of this mountain after noon, which is a good time to hunt. Let's go together later. I'll take you to the east. There are bears there. Let's cooperate and kill one. How about we split the profits 30% and 70%?" The hunter looked at Gu Yizi with excitement, and valued his hunting skills very much.

"Let's think about it." Xia Zheng spoke up to help Gu Yizi out.

The woman nudged the hunter with her elbow and said, "You're getting excited just talking about bear hunting. They're carrying children. Bear hunting is so dangerous. Come on, we're still empty-handed. We won't even have food to eat later."

The hunter retreated immediately after being scolded by the woman.

The woman turned back and smiled, "Then we'll go first. See you again if we're lucky."

After saying this, the couple didn't stay any longer and went into the woods with their eating utensils.

After they left, Gu Yizi asked Xia Zheng, "Do you want to go?"

"Wherever Gu Lang goes, I will go." Xia Zheng looked up, her shining eyes full of trust.

……

Noon.

The Orion Field was bustling with activity.

Two large pots were set up, and hunters from all over the mountains came with their prey that they had caught that morning and handed it to the women who were in charge of processing it. If it was a big prey, they would cut off a piece of it.

The women gathered in a circle, chatting and processing the prey, while the hunters sat in the shade, repairing their tools and sharing what was found on each hill and how to hunt.

It's a joyful time.

"Ah! Someone killed a wild boar!"

One of the women shouted, and everyone looked in the direction she pointed.

I saw a handsome man carrying a wild boar, with two hares hanging on each side of the rope hanging from his fingers. He used his other hand to support a beautiful woman.

The woman was limping, obviously with an injured left foot, and was holding a little girl who looked like a porcelain doll in her arms.

The wild boars were surprising enough, and the family of three was so beautiful that everyone couldn't take their eyes off them.

The woman who was plucking recognized Xia Zheng and the others and immediately stood up. She wiped her hands on her clothes and ran over, saying with a smile, "You guys really came! I thought you had gone back."

"You must think my suggestion is good. Let's go bear hunting after we finish eating. I also called two brothers. But don't worry, we agreed on a 37-39 split, so it's 37-39. We'll split 3 and you'll split 7. I will never go back on my word." The hunter also came up with a smile on his face.

"Our home is far away, so we thought we'd have a meal and rest here before going back." Xia Zheng answered the question kindly, and Gu Yizi reached out and handed the two hares to the woman.

The hunter felt a little disappointed and wanted to say something, but the woman glanced at him, took the rabbit and said, "Okay, it's daytime hunting now. We'll come back after we eat and rest."

"Let me help too." Xia Zheng handed Ruanruan to Gu Yizi, grabbed a handful of wild vegetables from the basket behind him and said, "I picked some wild vegetables and I'll stir-fry some vegetables."

According to the rules of the hunting ground, apart from the prey handed over, you can process and cook the things you bring yourself, and you can also eat them yourself, but sharing them is also welcome.

So no one had any objection to Xia Zheng's proposal. The woman helped her go to the group of women and found a bench for her to sit on.

As soon as she sat down, the women around her came over to look at her.

"You are so pretty, and white."

"Did you just come out hunting?"

Xia Zheng nodded in response.

"You can catch a wild boar right after you start hunting? Your man is amazing. My man couldn't even catch a squirrel when he first started."

"He used to be a soldier." Xia Zheng explained simply.

Everyone looked clear.

There are many people serving in the army in the Great Zhou Dynasty, because they can get military pay, which is much better than working outside.

However, in recent years, due to the country's weak national strength and the reduction of the army, many senior soldiers have been dismissed and sent back to their hometowns, especially those around Kyoto, where many of them have served in the military.

"Her man is not only good at hunting." The woman who was helping Xia Zheng apply the medicine said with a sly smile, and the eyes of the women around her immediately lit up.
