In the 1970s, I sold my iron rice bowl, stocked up space and went to the countryside

Drinking roe deer soup and eating roasted squirrel, you must also drink some wine to warm up your body and relieve fatigue.

Several young men chatted casually around the campfire.

The older ones smoked dry tobacco on the side.

Shen Mo sat with the hunting dogs. She preferred to get along with dogs rather than people.

Wang Dagang complained to Uncle Tie: "There are thirteen of us in total, and we brought thirteen roe deer skin quilts. Isn't it enough for Shen Mo to come? It's so cold, we can't freeze her to death!"

The winter night in Da'anling is now more than 20 degrees below zero. If there is no roe deer skin tube to keep warm, it is estimated that she may really freeze to death.

When Shen Mo came out, she didn't expect to spend the night outside and didn't have any preparations.

Uncle Tie took a puff of his pipe and said hoarsely, "Give her mine. The little girl is afraid of the cold. Don't let her get frozen."

"Uncle, you are so old, and you still think you are a young man."

In fact, there is a quilt in Lu Qingyang's space to keep warm, but it is impossible to take it out in the current situation.

He looked at Sun Xiangqian with ill intentions, and Sun Xiangqian immediately covered his chest.

"What are you looking at? I already have a partner, and I won't give in to you."

The funny words caused laughter all around.

Lu Qingyang asked, "Can we squeeze in?"

Sun Xiangqian looked at the roe deer leather tube and fell into deep thought.

Two people of such large bodies would definitely be squeezed to death if they got in.

Shen Mo is small, but she can't be squeezed with a big man.

Brothers' debts must be repaid sooner or later, and respecting the elderly and loving the young is a traditional virtue.

"Okay, okay, squeeze in with me!"

Wang Dagang looked at the other people's leather tubes and finally changed the biggest one for them.

"It's barely enough to sleep, and it's warmer for two people."

Lu Qingyang knew that there was no good condition outside, but he still brought a toothbrush and tooth powder, brushed his teeth and washed his face.

Yang Xiaoshan joked: "Xiao Lu is a particular person. He brushes his teeth when he goes out hunting."

"You think he is you? Your wife will dislike the strong taste in your mouth when you go back!"

"My wife doesn't dislike it. She just likes to kiss me."

"Yes, she loves you the most."

"What's wrong, are you jealous?"

Several people started to joke, and Lu Qingyang quickly covered Shen Mo's ears and coughed a few times:

"Pay attention, there are girls here."

Shen Mo ate the pancake in her hand by herself, as if she didn't hear it.

After eating, she asked Lu Qingyang for tooth powder and cleaned up like him, but she didn't bring a toothbrush, so she could only use tooth powder to rinse her mouth.

Just when she wanted to wipe her face, she was stopped by Lu Qingyang.

"No need to wash your face, remember what I said before?"

"Yeah."

Shen Mo got into the roe deer leather tube directly, and Lu Qingyang helped her tie the knot.

He also found her a corner away from everyone and made a fire for her.

On the other side of the campfire, he and Sun Xiangqian shared a leather tube. It was a little crowded, but it was warm.

The dogs would find a warm place by themselves, some leaning against the campfire, and some sleeping directly against the horse.

The snoring gradually sounded in the cave, and Shen Mo couldn't sleep at all.

He opened his eyes and stared at Lu Qingyang opposite him, and the firelight made his face clearly outlined.

She couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth, until she saw the face of another person, she turned over in disgust.

Gradually, Shen Mo fell asleep.

...

Lu Qingyang felt something licking his face in a daze.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw that it was Mantou wagging his tail in front of him and licking his face.

Shen Mo was curled up in a corner, sleeping soundly.

The leather tube on her body was tightly wrapped

The older ones like Uncle Tie had already woken up, and something was bubbling in the pot.

Lu Qingyang nudged Sun Xiangqian with his elbow, "Xiangqian, it's time to wake up."

Sun Xiangqian muttered, "Good wife, don't make trouble!"

Lu Qingyang knew he was dreaming again, so he untied the bag of the leather tube and got out.

Although it was warm, the two men were really crowded.

Mantou came to Sun Xiangqian's side, and he hugged the dog and kissed it, causing Mantou to cry.

Sun Xiangqian opened his eyes and saw a dog's face, which frightened him and woke him up immediately.

Uncle Tie had already cooked corn porridge and steamed some potatoes, and most people were awake.

Shen Mo heard the noise, rubbed her eyes, and got up sleepily.

"Come and have breakfast when you wake up. Breakfast is the most important thing in the day, so make sure you eat it warm."

Drink corn porridge into the stomach, warm, with a few steamed potatoes and a few slices of steamed meat, the stomach is almost full.

Only Shen Mo was still staring at the remaining potatoes in the pot, and Uncle Tie put them all into her pocket, "Eat! All for you."

Shen Mo was not polite, and finally showed a smile on her serious face.

The group continued to set off. On this way, hunting dogs were needed to smell the scent and find the traces of prey, so horses were used to pull the sled.

The winter woods were very quiet. When they climbed to the top of the hillside, it was already noon.

Lu Qingyang looked down from above and saw that the vast mountains and forests were covered with heavy snow, turning into a vast and boundless white forest.

Such a magnificent and magnificent beauty, any language carving seems redundant.

"It's so beautiful here."

"It's beautiful and dangerous. I don't know how many people are buried here every year." Uncle Tie said with a lost tone, "Respecting it is the minimum respect for it."

His eyes dimmed a little involuntarily. His son died in an accident while hunting in the mountains.

Even so, he still needs to go in and out of this forest from time to time.

And every time he comes, it will bring back his sad memories.

Lu Qingyang patted his shoulder. At this time, he didn't know how to comfort him with words, so he could only remain silent.

The atmosphere here was heavy, but it was different for Shen Mo.

She untied the sled directly and found a suitable position without obstacles.

Prepared to sit on the sled and slide down the winding hillside.

"This is very dangerous!" Sun Xiangqian was still shouting behind her to remind her.

"At such a young age, you are so brave!" Wang Dagang said this, but he was still worried that she would overturn.

"Lu Qingyang, hurry up, help me push!"

Lu Qingyang had no choice but to push the sled while holding the steamed bun, and quickly jumped on it. The two of them then rushed down from the top of the hill like an arrow from a bow.

The surrounding scenery turned into a blur of light and shadow, and the speed brought an unprecedented sense of excitement, which made Lu Qingyang blurt out a cheerful "Yoho" that echoed in the valley.
