    Because it rained a few days ago, if you leave the main road, you need to walk on a muddy road.

    Fortunately, this is a mountainous area with relatively rough terrain, so there won¡¯t be water accumulation, otherwise it would be muddy water.

    The land in Taoshan Village was reclaimed by each farmer. Because it is a mountainous area, the soil is relatively poor, and a large amount of farmyard manure is used to accumulate the base fertilizer for growing crops.

    The green cornfield is distributed in irregular shapes. The long leaves are drooping with dew on them. Each corn is hidden among the leaves, like a shy girl, waiting to be picked.

    If you put this on someone who has never farmed, it will look like a beautiful landscape painting. But when the corn is harvested, it will not be the case. The corn leaves scratch the skin, which can easily make the exposed skin red and red.  itch.

    When he was a child, what Jiang Tian didn¡¯t like the most was picking corn, and he often saw all kinds of bugs, but pulling fruits, that is, peanuts, was much easier.

    Grandpa is old, and the crops he planted are not too many, but not too few. When they came to the cornfield, the breeze blew and the leaves swayed gently.

    The corn at this time is relatively tender and tastes best when cooked. In the past, it was cooked with taro and peanuts, and it was a delicious meal.

    Jiang Tian and his grandfather went to the fields. They didn¡¯t want the corn that was too small, and threw the corn that was just right into the baskets on their backs.

    Unconsciously, they picked a lot, and the two of them spread out.

    "Ah!" Suddenly, my grandfather's voice shouted from a distance.

    Jiang Tian quickly ran over and saw his grandfather lying on the ground.

    "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" He helped him up and checked if he was injured.

    "It's okay, I was just scared by this monkey suddenly." Grandpa pointed to the front, where a black monkey pouted and tried to attack with his hands.

    There are many wild animals on the mountain. Monkeys are often seen in the village. In the past, wild boars came down to harm crops.

    Seeing that his grandfather was not injured, Jiang Tian felt relieved.

    The monkey in front of me is not very tall, maybe about 40 to 50 centimeters, with a small head and white hair on its cheeks, like a beard.

    Seemingly feeling that the two of them posed no threat to it, the monkey looked at them while skillfully pulling the corn off the cob and peeling off the outer skin, revealing the fresh and tender corn.

    The monkey bit it one bite after another, and the food was very sweet.

    Jiang Tian found it funny. This was the first time he saw such a monkey. He took out his mobile phone and turned on the video. The monkey cooperated. After eating, he peeled the corn and ate it.

    Grandpa was also amused, "Let's go, let him eat here. He won't be able to eat much anyway. Don't mess with him. If it is a nationally protected animal, you will easily go to jail if you mess with it."

    The two left. A lot of corn had been broken off, enough to eat.

    "Grandpa, are other people's crop fields caused by monkeys like this?" Jiang Tian asked.

    "No, I took a look. It should be a wild boar, or a wild boar that is not too small in size. It is very aggressive. The village chief will probably inform you later that you should close the door and don't go out at night."

    Grandpa looked worried. Wild boars had not come down for several years. In the past, hunters often went up to the mountains to hunt wild boars. After killing the pigs, they sold the pork in the village.

    Later, all the young people left the mountains, and there was no successor to the Orion. Until his death a few years ago, no one dared to look for wild boars.

    Even if the people in the village only go into the mountains a little bit to look for medicinal materials and wild vegetables, they don't dare to go deep at all.

    Thinking of this, my grandfather warned me again, "Don't be careless. Last year, the police came and said that a few travel friends had gone deep into the mountain. They searched for a week but couldn't find it. It was probably that only the bones were left after being chewed by wild beasts.  "

    Recalling the experience when he also helped to look for it, my grandfather felt that it was dangerous.

    While walking, an old man came towards me with a glass bottle in his hand.

    "Old Mingtou, where have you gone? I've been looking for it for a long time and still can't find it."

    "Old Li Tou, why are you looking for me?"

    This old man was the barefoot doctor who treated Jiang Tian at that time, and the herbal medicine he used was really effective.

    Grandpa glanced at him and said, "Take this snake wine that you have brewed for several years. Are you asking me for something?"

    "We'll talk about it when we get to your house!" Old Li Tou replied sarcastically, looking like he was being exposed.?Looking guilty.

    After entering the yard, Lao Li Tou put the snake wine on the table, "You have been coveting this wine for a long time, so I will give it to you today. I usually treat you very well, right? I saved your grandson's life."  of."

    "Bah, don't talk nonsense here, Jiang Tian has nothing to do with him at all." Grandpa glared and wanted to kick him.

    ¡°In a mountain village, if you talk like this, you may not know what will happen to Jiang Tian in the future.

    Old Li slapped himself twice, "It's my fault for talking nonsense."

    Seeing that he was sincere in admitting his mistake, my grandfather asked: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"

    "I want you to help find wild ginseng." Old Li Tou's voice was very low, for fear that others would hear him.

    "No!" Grandpa refused directly, "Do you know what happened in the crop fields? They are wild boars. If you go to the mountains at this time, you are risking death."

    Lao Litou showed bitterness on his face, "I know, who can be such a coincidence, but there is no way. My son called me this morning and said that my grandson was sick and was in the hospital. It was quite serious. I wanted to get some mountains."  Shen will replenish his body."

    After hearing this, grandpa could understand that Lao Li Tou came to look for him even if he knew there was a wild boar, because he cared about the children.

    "You are the only one who knows how to find ginseng in our village. I really have no choice."

    Grandpa didn't speak. He thought for a long time before gritting his teeth and said, "I can help you find ginseng, but you can't go too far into the mountains. You go to the village chief's house and ask for the shotgun left by the hunter. The rules for entering the mountains are yours."  I also know that now is the right time and cannot be delayed.¡±

    Grandpa stood up and said, "Jiang Tian, ??you stay at home. I'll be back soon."

    "No, grandpa, if you want to go, I will go too!" Jiang Tian can't let these two old guys go to the mountains. What if something happens? At least he is still a land. If there is any danger, he should be able to leave safely.

    "If you stay, do you know how dangerous it is in the mountains?"

    "You know I won't let you go alone, either don't go or take me with you!" Jiang Tian refused to give in at all.

    Old Li was a little anxious, but he didn't dare to say anything.

    Seeing Jiang Tian's determined look, my grandfather was defeated and said helplessly: "It's too easy to follow your mother! Come on, I'm telling you, don't run around when you go up the mountain, you must follow us."

    Seeing that the two men finally reached an agreement, Old Li Tou breathed a sigh of relief, left the yard, and went to borrow a shotgun.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
