Chapter 47 Peaches and Reunion and Peace
These are the bows and arrows that the two sisters used when they were practicing.
Lin Chunyi flung out the nine-section whip wrapped around her body, and the dagger at the end of the whip flew into the air.
She pulled the whip back slightly and spun it off.
The dagger flew out and pierced the scarecrow.
"Finally, I can kick the scarecrow."
Lin Chunyi smiled happily and continued practicing like that.
Control the direction and force so that the knife can be firmly stabbed into the scarecrow's head.
She wrapped the whip back around her waist and watched her younger sister practice with her sword.
Lin Lanshan twirled her twin swords in her hands, thrusting and stabbing with her right sword while her left sword followed closely with a slide and slash.
With a side somersault, he approached the scarecrow and plunged his twin swords into its body.
Then he finished his stance and put the two swords back into their sheaths at his waist.
Turning to her sister with a smile, she said:
"Sister, I feel like I'm getting better and better at practicing with dual swords. How about you?"
"I did pretty well, and I was able to barely control the final blow."
The two skillfully tied on their cloth bags, ready to run up the mountain.
Lin Chunyi said:
“We’ve all gotten the hang of it now, let’s set aside some time for other chores starting tomorrow. Peach, Tuantuan, An’an, off we go.”
"Okay, Yuanyuan, Kangkang, let's run too."
Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan and An An Kang Kang are the names they gave to their two little yellow chicks and two little yellow geese, who are now a month old.
Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan are the two little yellow chicks.
Tuan Tuan's wings began to turn black, while Yuan Yuan's wings began to turn white.
An'an and Kang'kang are those two little yellow goslings.
Their fur began to turn white, with gray feathers on one wing and gray feathers on the other's neck.
The Lin sisters, Chunyi and Lanshan, came up with the idea about ten days ago, thinking they should bring them along for a mountain run.
It helps increase their intelligence and improve their physical fitness.
Well, it's not that I think they're living too comfortably at home all day, just eating, drinking, and relieving themselves.
Then, a mule, two chickens, and two geese were forced to run up the mountain with them.
Peach is alright when she runs away. It's just that Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan, An An Kang Yang, always goes astray and is incredibly slow.
The two sisters led them around for about ten days before they slowly remembered the route.
Lin Chunyi and Lin Lanshan ran three laps, Taozi ran two laps, Tuantuan and Yuanyuan ran half a lap, and An'an and Kangkang ran a little more than half a lap.
"Chirp chirp," "quack quack," "uh uh"
Upon hearing their names called, Tuanyuan Ankang, who was catching insects to eat on the grass, and Taozi, who was eating grass, both raised their heads and called out a few times.
Then they ate a few mouthfuls to replenish their energy. Because they knew that suffering was about to begin again.
Seeing that its two owners were far away, it quickly started running after them.
The two sisters ran ahead, dropping off bits of food every now and then, waiting for the animals to come and eat.
We can't let them starve to death on the road.
Taozi is currently eating hay, and we occasionally add some grains and vegetable leaves to its diet.
They eat grains and vegetable leaves, and occasionally catch insects themselves.
The two sisters ran three laps, then slowly stopped, panting. They wiped their sweat and waited for the animals to run back.
Let's go home together.
After dark
Lin Chunyi ladled out the cooked rice porridge, a smile on her face.
"Lanshan, the potatoes have been flowering for several days now. It looks like our potatoes have been planted. We'll be able to eat them in a few more days."
Lin Lanshan took out the pickled water celery, cut it into small pieces, arranged it on a plate, and said:
"Let's go and pinch off the flowers tomorrow, hehe, to make it grow faster. We'll also check on how the other vegetables are growing."
"Well, let's finish the work tomorrow and then go for a walk in the deep mountains. After a while, when it gets really hot and the snakes come out, I don't really want to go."
The next day, the sun was high in the sky, and the two sisters went out carrying bows and arrows and baskets on their backs.
Deep in the mountains,
"Sister, it's a pheasant!"
Lin Lanshan took down her bow and arrow, aimed at the pheasant about ten meters away, and fired an arrow.
"call out"
The arrow pierced the pheasant's wing, and it fell to the ground, flapped its wings twice, and then remained still.
Lin Chunyi walked over and picked up the pheasant, saying, "Then let's have roasted chicken in the valley this afternoon."
Chili salt can finally be put to good use!
The two continued walking, getting further and further away from the valley.
The weather was neither too hot nor too cold. The two of them walked slowly through the deep mountains until they were almost at the top of the mountain.
We're almost at the summit here; the wind is a bit chilly, and it's quieter than other places.
The two sisters wanted to walk a little further up, but stopped. Then they turned around and walked back.
The mountaintop is probably not a place they can go right now.
As they got closer, both of them felt a pang of anxiety.
"Sister, why does my heart race whenever I get close to the mountain or have the thought of going up?"
Lin Chunyi frowned, a hint of doubt in her eyes. "I don't know. This feeling is like...like leveling up in a game! It's like we have to unlock things step by step. I'm sure that if it were six months ago, we definitely wouldn't have even made it this far!"
"Yes! It really feels like as we get stronger little by little, we'll get closer to the summit! How can it be so mysterious? I suddenly feel a chill..."
Lin Lanshan shivered.
"Let's go home first. If that's really the case, we'll find out the reason sooner or later."
There were once immortals on Youxian Mountain, but hundreds of years have passed and they are no longer here.
Alone in the cave atop the peak, awaiting the arrival of the destined one...
Meanwhile, the two sisters, now back in the valley, are secretly blocking the entrance to a hole in a mound with stones.
The other two entrances were guarded by one person each.
"Sis, you held on, I'm starting to smoke it now."
Lin Lanshan stuffed a handful of half-dried branches and dry grass into the hole in front of her and then lit a fire.
Soon, smoke began to billow out. "Cough cough cough," Lin Lanshan, who was closest to the smoke, coughed and teared up from the fumes.
"Are you alright? Try holding your breath."
"Ahem, I forgot, hahaha. It's okay, sis, just keep an eye on the cave entrance over there."
Lin Chunyi felt a movement inside the basket blocking the hole, then a few more. She said happily:
"I caught them! I caught them! There are several in my basket!"
Lin Chunyi carefully straightened the basket, then lifted the tarpaulin slightly to let her younger sister come and see.
Sure enough, there were two large, gray rabbits and four smaller rabbits scurrying around in the basket.
The two chuckled, it seemed that today they would not only have roast chicken, but also roast rabbit!
"Sis, these little bunnies are kind of cute!" (Referring to a fluffy little gray bunny.)
My hands are itching to get one...
"No, please don't say that! Aren't the peaches enough of a nuisance for you? They chirp from morning till night without getting tired."
When we went out today, they saw us and wanted to jump out and follow us.
"Okay. Never mind then."
Lin Lanshan released the four little rabbits, and they disappeared in a flash.
Then the two carried two large rabbits, each weighing over three pounds, to the lower reaches of the stream and began to prepare the pheasants and rabbits.
They don't feel anything when they kill a rabbit now. Each of them grabs a rabbit by the ear and stabs it in the neck.
