The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 445 Snowy Night on the Grassland (two chapters in one)

boom!

There was a loud bang.

Louder than the sound of the wind, it seemed to hit everyone's heart.

The cow was smashed to the point of staring. It didn't intend to move, but as a creature that has been standing on four legs, when it senses danger, it will definitely choose to stand and balance instead of lying down.

But this subconscious reaction didn't help it. Instead, it got the second, third, and successive punches.

bang bang bang bang...

Each time is lighter than the next.

Qi Si tried his best with his first punch because he was worried that he would not be able to restrain the grumpy cow, but as the cow's reaction became weaker and weaker, the strength of his fist continued to weaken.

Taurus: I'm not moving anymore, what's the matter with me?

With half-closed eyelids, he quietly pressed his head on the snow. If it wasn't for the regular ups and downs of its body, its dilated nostrils and its desperate inhalation and exhalation, it really seemed that it was about to be beaten by Qi Si forcefully. up...

Yan Yu ran over, and the panic came and went quickly.

No, it went too fast!

The reversal is so powerful that it is unbelievable.

Who would have thought that such an irritable cow would be subdued by Uncle Qi's punches and punches.

Qi Si himself was a little scared.

When he saw Xiao Er approaching, he seemed to have found a backbone.

"Xiao Er, Fourth Uncle Qi put in more effort, really, later on, you can help uncle to see, it can't die, right?"

Yan Yu: ...

The worry in Uncle Qi's eyes is too obvious. He is still keeping the action of pressing on the cow. It is very likely that he dare not move anymore. He is afraid... the cow is dead...

Yan Yuzai looked back and forth carefully.

It should be... not dead.

"Second Uncle Sun, how are you?" Yan Yu asked concerned.

Between Uncle Qi and Tou Niu, the latter needs to be cared about, while Uncle Sun and Tou Niu obviously need to care more about the former.

"It's all right, this cow is going to die?" Sun Erdan finally let go of the cow's tail and got up.

As soon as the ox's tail was released, it shook slowly, tentatively to the left, then to the right, the range was very small.

Sun Erdan laughed: "Haha, it's okay, I'm still alive."

"Qi Si, you're really good! You knocked down such a big cow!" Erdan Sun patted the snow on his body and ran to the front to have a look.

At this time, people from Xiao'an Village came one after another.

Yan Huaiwen was the first to arrive. He rode a horse and was the fastest.

Before the horse stopped, he turned over and got down, trotted two steps, stood in front of him, and swept around, seeing everyone was fine, and his tense body relaxed.

Then came Qi Da and Qi Wu.

The body of the man from the Qi family, with his two long legs thrown away, was not much worse than a horse. A series of deep pits were left behind the two of them. Because they ran so violently, Qi Da and Qi Wu exhaled thickly. Breathing, panting harder than a cow lying on the ground.

Yan Laoer hadn't run like this for a long time, he felt that the cold air he inhaled was icy, and it hurt him so much that he couldn't speak when he ran to the place. Seeing that his daughter was well and Qi Si was well, everyone Well, he relieved all of his strength and sat down on the ground with weak legs.

Qi Da went to pull him, Yan Er Er waved his hand at him, he hadn't recovered his breath yet, and wanted to sit down for a while.

Regardless of his objection, Qi Da stretched out his arms to support him.

Let Yan Laoer lean on him.

Yan Erdi's body is far worse than Xiaoer's.

Look, they are also running over, although Yan Lao Er ran a bit longer than Yan Yu, but looking at Xiao Er, he has already breathed evenly, and now he is reaching out to pull Qi Si up.

Qi Wu walked over to help, but Qi Si stood up by himself.

Attention is still on the cow.

Qi Si asked in a muffled voice: "Why doesn't it stand up when it's fine? I hit the head, not the leg..."

Qi Wu asked in a daze, "Did you crush its leg just now?"

Yan Huaiwen said lightly: "It's good that people are fine."

The implication is that it doesn't matter whether the cow is dead or alive.

Qi Si squatted down again and stared at the bull, who also looked at him without blinking.

One person and one cow looked at each other for a while, and Qi Si asked harshly, "Can you still get up?"

The cow responds with a slightly wider range of tail flicks.

Seeing that the three uncles of the Qi family were all here, Yan Yu became bolder.

Pick up the cow's leg and bend it so that the cow's hooves stand on the snow.

I hope to use this action to let the cow understand their intentions.

Just now, we really wanted you to fall down, but now, we also really want to see you stand up.

A cow, or a tall and strong bull, why not sell it for twenty taels! If you can walk back, you will be twenty taels. If you go back lying down, I am afraid that you will not be able to sell for this value!

Yan Yu's small account was crackling.

Here, the only one who can resonate with her is... her father.

Yan Laoer slowed down a bit, and hurriedly said to Qi Da: "Brother Qi, let's go over and have a look. I'll touch its legs to see if it's broken. Why don't you stand up?"

Whether it is live cattle or beef, let Yan's second choose, he will definitely choose one.

Qi Da went over with Yan's second son by his arm.

Yan Lao Er immediately put himself into the inspection work.

The affectionate touch and serious attitude are all his love for the health of cattle...

"It's okay, the legs are fine." After Yan's second finished speaking, he went to look at the bull's head again. In fact, he wanted to scratch the cow's eyelids to see if there was any blood oozing, and whether Qi Si was brainwashed by the bull's head... …

Yan Yu picked up the rope on the ground, and the other end was still tied to the bull's head.

She pushed hard, and the cow's neck was pulled up by it.

The bull's four hooves were all thumping, and it seemed to be remembering, but its bull's eyes kept looking at Qi Si, and after a couple of thumps, it stopped moving. Yan Yu could feel its resistance from the rope.

She seemed to understand something.

"Uncle Qi, try pulling it up." Yan Yu gave the rope to Qi Si.

As soon as Qi Si took it, he raised his hand, and before he could use any force, the cow, which was lying quietly and pretending to be paralyzed, stood up thumping, which was called a snap.

Yan Yu: ...

Qi Wu was so curious that he asked for the rope from Qi Si and tried to pull it.

The cow didn't move, its eyes were round, and it was unclear whether it was looking at Qi Si or Qi Wu at this moment.

Qi Wu was not used to it, he just punched him when he went up.

The three brothers of the Qi family are very experienced in dealing with angry animals.

My own mule has a bad temper. When he first came home, he barked fiercely. Looking at it now, Niaojing didn't move at all.

The cow was punched and mooed in grievance.

Presumably, they felt the power from the same bloodline.

Qi Wu took the rope again, and the bull followed obediently.

Qi Da also became interested, his order was reversed, he punched first, and then connected the rope, the cow didn't even moo, uh, it must have once again felt the weight that his own cow couldn't bear, Be honest.

Yan Yu took a look, good guy, so you are such a bull.

She puffed her face, clenched her little fists, and walked over.

Uh, not tall enough.

"Uncle Qi, let him bow his head."

Qi Da is definitely pampering children. In fact, the three brothers of the Qi family are all pampering Xiao Er. In the past, it was because of Yan Er who loved Wu and Wu. Now, thinking of Xiao Er's strength, he can't help but want to treat her better.

Qi Da pressed the bull's head down with one hand.

It was also the cow that was frightened by the three two-legged beasts.

When Yan Yu also finished swinging his fist.

Head cow: Niu Sheng, it's really difficult!

Yan Yu went to pull the rope, and the cow followed. She couldn't control it, and laughed happily.

Yan Laoer also thinks this cow is very interesting.

His hand was itchy, and he also punched it.

Niu's eyes widened suddenly, and Yan Yu subconsciously felt bad.

He gave her father a hand.

I saw the cow unceremoniously raised its hoof and kicked her father, almost kicked her father.

Yan's second child was all amused: "Hey, you are a bully!"

Sun Erdan and the men from Xiao'an Village who all ran over also wanted to try it, but Yan Lao Er had preceded him, so let's forget it.

...

After subduing a cow, the herd is really easy to lead.

As long as the cow is pulled in front, the cows behind will follow up automatically.

Of course, like Yan Yu, the people of Xiao'an Village also felt that it was not safe to rely on only one cow, so they put ropes on their heads one by one. sufficient length of activity.

The sledges were piled with food and all kinds of utensils from the tents. The tents were folded into big bags, tied tightly with ropes, and dragged directly on the snow.

Gouzhu galloped on the snowy ground, driving a flock of sheep to bleat neatly, not a single sheep could escape from the flock...

The returning team moved slowly against the wind and snow.

Qi Si led the cow and walked at the front of the team.

He was carrying a basket on his back, the axes and knives inside were gone, and there were soft sheepskins piled up all around. Yan Yu sat in it, surrounded by wool, blocking the wind and snow.

To tell you the truth, if it wasn't for the strong smell of wool, maybe she would have fallen asleep.

Shaking and shaking in Uncle Qi's basket, trying to open the eyelids, the night sky is gloomy, only blurred black and white in the field of vision, the sound of the wind, loud and small, whirring and whirring, is like a lullaby, Yan Yu's head bit by bit, drowsy.

"Brother, you should take someone back first, we know the way, just walk forward slowly."

Yan Yu couldn't count by herself. This is the first time her father has driven her uncle out of the team, so hurry back to Huju.

"Hmm." Yan Huaiwen's voice was barely audible.

Yan Yu murmured in her heart, it's like this again, the uncle's inaction is the most difficult thing to do, she saw her father was anxious, and said: "Brother, if you don't leave, then if this is the case, add another dress."

Yan Laoer refers to the sheepskin.

Yan Huaiwen looked at his body, he was wearing two layers now, one was his own and the other was God's blessing.

The latter one was the last one he had to put on when he saw Tianyou's anxious eyes turned red.

In addition, it can only be removed from the tent...

What Yan Lao Er is wearing now is that he has wrapped himself in three layers.

Look at him and his daughter, this is a model of hardship and simplicity, the conditions are like this, so you have to get used to it, and look at his elder brother, the cleanliness is too serious.

When they fled famine, they didn't take a bath for several days, they were covered in sweat, and their hair was sticky. How did the elder brother bear it? Uh, maybe the sweat is from my body, don't you think so?

But Yan Laoer understood his elder brother very well, if his nose hadn't been frozen, he wouldn't have been able to bear the leather wrapping.

"Brother, why don't we stop for a rest and wait for the snow to be lighter?" Yan Laoer suggested.

The snow tonight, those rescued women in Guanzhou called it smoky snow.

Wherever the wind blows, there will be snow.

The snow on the ground was pushed all the way, and when the two wind currents met, they were so excited that they hugged and spun around, and the snow was rolled in the air like smoke from the chimneys of every family in the village, spinning, jumping and flying...

"Where is the direction?" Yan Huaiwen is most concerned about this. This kind of bad weather is the easiest way to get lost.

"It's definitely not wrong, brother, look back, we are walking in a straight line, straight." Yan's second child pointed to the back.

Yan Huaiwen squinted and looked over, judging from the footprints, it was indeed the case.

"Uncle, let's take a rest, it's too cold for Mavericks to bear." Yan Yu poked his head out, and the cold wind refreshed his head as soon as his head came out, his eyes brightened instantly, and he was no longer sleepy.

The rescued children, like Yan Yu, were either carried on the backs of Xiao'an villagers, or hugged in front of them, wrapped in sheepskin, leaving only a little space for them to breathe, so they were warm.

The women were grateful in their hearts, and reciprocated to take care of the calves who were struggling to follow.

Hold them in your arms.

At first they walked on the ground by themselves, but later the big guys saw that this was not an option, so they made room on the sledge for them to hold the calf and sit on it.

Fortunately, the cows seem to be familiar with them, as long as they can see the calves, they have no intention of snatching them back.

"Stop and rest." Yan Huaiwen shouted loudly.

The procession stopped from front to back.

Yan Yu was somewhat attached to the warmth in the basket, and didn't want to go out, so she said to Fourth Uncle Qi, "Uncle Qi, let's look in the back, I remember there is wine."

Qi Si responded and handed over the rope of the cow to Qi Wu.

Carry Xiaoer on his back and walk back.

When the two of them found the sledge for the wine and pulled it back, the big guy had already led the cattle together and formed a circle, which could somewhat block the wind.

"Go ahead, let the sheep come here." Yan Yu shouted.

Groups of sheep bleat and squeeze together to keep each other warm.

There are no dogs chasing them, they are very quiet at night, and they can fall asleep standing up with their eyes closed...

The big guys put together the charcoal they brought and the firewood they picked up on the road, and finally lit the fire and burned it into a big fire.

Everyone huddled together, passed the Beirong wine to each other, took a sip, and couldn't taste much, but they could feel a warm current flowing down their throats, and the face and hands gradually softened, not as hard as before Yes, I can't speak clearly as if I had water in my mouth.

Qi Si put the basket on the ground.

Yan Yu crawled out from inside.

Stand outside and do a set of messy fists and kicks to move your hands and feet.

Then find a handy board to push the snow.

Push the snow up, beat it down with a plank, and push...

Qi Si knows what she is going to do best.

The piled snow keeps the wind out.

The two worked together, and within a short while, a snow wall half as high as a person was erected.

Yan Lao Er came to his senses and went to look for the board too.

Qi Da also followed to help.

Yan Huaiwen also went to push the snow.

The yamen servants saw all the people in Xiao'an Village move, pushing the snow nearby and even further away, looked at each other, and left the place closest to the fire, and ran to help.

When a large, irregular snow wall was piled up, the big guy sat down again, and was surprised to find that it was indeed much warmer.
