Chapter Index

    first night

    The skylight completely disappeared, and several bonfires were set up in the camp, both for cooking food and to drive away birds of prey.When An Le was drowsy by the warm campfire, the aroma of barbecue wafted from all over the camp. The aroma of meat was mixed with a light fruity aroma, and An Le was about to move.

    “Are you hungry?” As soon as Anle’s eyes focused on the roasted chicken, he heard An Xiaoyu’s smiling voice.

    “Yeah.” Anle rubbed his belly, staring at the roasted chicken that was brown and oily, took a deep breath and said, “It smells so good.”

    “Wait a little longer, and it will be ready soon. There are fruits in the chicken’s belly, so it should taste good. It’s the method taught by Sister Moli.” An Xiaoyu’s voice was gentle, and in the slow night, it blended with the sound of the flames, sounding inexplicably warm.

    “I’m so hungry.” As if he was really hungry and weak, Anle tilted his body and leaned against An Xiaoyu, with the light of fire dancing in his eyes, he repeated in a long voice: “I’m so hungry~ An Xiaoyu.”

    “Here you go, eat.” An impatient voice suddenly popped out. An Linmian stretched out the roasted chicken that had just been roasted and was still on the stick in front of An Le, looking sideways at the two of them with a disgusted expression.

    With a slight chuckle, Anmai pulled An Linmian’s arm and said with a smile: “Mianmian, why are you disturbing the two of us? Lele doesn’t need you.”

    An Linmian said: “It’s not like he keeps talking.”

    “Lele was acting coquettishly with Xiaoyu.” An Mai said with a smile.

    An Le suddenly became energetic. He quickly left An Xiaoyu and coughed loudly. He was about to pick up the chicken when he saw An Xiaoyu on the other side also handed over the roasted chicken. As if he didn’t see the chicken handed over by An Linmian, he said, “Eat it.”

    Before An Le could hesitate, An Linmian clicked his tongue in disgust, took back the roast chicken, and handed it to An Mai with a smile on his face. His voice was extremely gentle and sweet, as if he was deliberately teasing the two of them, and said: “Maizi, come here, I’ll feed you, ah~”

    Anle had a dark look on his face: “…”

    “Hahaha——” Antu laughed, “Sister Mianmian, you really learned how to do it.”

    Anle’s face is almost blackened into carbon.

    What a look!When had they ever been so disgusted and disgusted?!

    “Eat quickly.” An Xiaoyu said softly again, while shaking the chicken drumstick in his hand.

    Anle was hungry, so he decided to ignore the teasing of others again and concentrate on cooking and enjoying the food.

    Unexpectedly, I heard An Tu say again at this time: “I discovered that Brother Xiaoyu only has a gentle voice when speaking to Lele, and is polite to everyone else. No wonder Aunt Ye always praises Brother Xiaoyu, Brother Xiaoyu is so kind to Lele…”

    Hahaha, Anle gnawed on the chicken drumsticks, listening to Antu’s endless praise for An Xiaoyu, and just wanted to sneer.

    If I didn’t marry him, he would be thrown into the sea to feed the fishes, so why don’t you be nice to me?Anle didn’t bother to explain to them, he just wanted to finish eating and lie down on the bed.

    After a tiring day, my feet are almost useless.An Le was lying on the bed, hanging his sore calves, thinking that he would not be so tired tomorrow. He was here to play, not to train.

    Let An Xiaoyu take the exam alone!It’s not him who is in a hurry to leave!

    “I’ll go by myself tomorrow. You can rest here.” Just as he was thinking about it, An Xiaoyu wiped his wet hair and pushed the door in and said.

    An Le tilted her head and looked at the door. There was a candle burning in the room, and the light was dim. An Xiaoyu walked from the dim door into the dim candle light. There were water drops on the end of her long hair, and the water droplets reflected the warm light.

    Anle stared at An Xiaoyu, hummed slightly, and said after a moment, “Why don’t you dry it by the campfire?”

    “It’s okay, the wind will dry it out.” An Xiaoyu said, walked to the window and opened it. The night wind from the mountain brought in the cold moonlight, and the candle jumped a few times and suddenly went out.

    “Hmm, do you want some?” An Xiaoyu seemed surprised, turned to look at the candle on the table that was blown out by the wind, and asked.

    The moonlight was not very bright, and could barely illuminate the area within two steps of the window. Lying comfortably in bed, he almost wanted to be hidden by the darkness.

    “No need.” Anle said.

    “Yeah.” An Xiaoyu responded lightly, leaning against the window, tilting his head, and concentrated on wiping his hair.

    The moonlight outlined An Xiaoyu’s silhouette. Anle looked at An Xiaoyu’s mechanical and repetitive movements in boredom, as if a hypnotist was swinging the clock in his hand. After watching for a long time, Anle couldn’t help but yawn.

    This day was tiring and tiring, and the sleepiness came fiercely. After Anle yawned several times, he couldn’t resist the sleepiness, turned over, said “I’m going to sleep first”, and got into the quilt to sleep.

    There was only one layer of thin quilts on the hard plank bed in the camp. Anle was used to sleeping on soft beds, so even when he came to Longyin Village, he would put several layers of mattresses on the plank bed.He was not used to sleeping on the hard bed in the camp, so although he fell asleep in a daze, it was not stable. His body turned over and over in his sleep, changing positions to relieve the discomfort.

    Dimly, Anle noticed that An Xiaoyu had also gone to bed, but as he was feeling sleepy, Anle fell asleep again in an instant.It wasn’t until Anle woke up in the middle of the night that she realized something was wrong.

    Why are he and An Xiaoyu on the same quilt!

    In the darkness, Anle blinked three times dullly before remembering that when he went to get the quilt, the man seemed to have only given An Xiaoyu two quilts.Also, who will give the couple a quilt to cover each other.

    But, just cover him with a quilt. The question is, why is he in An Xiaoyu’s arms?Being hugged by An Xiaoyu?!

    Anle tentatively pushed the strong arm pressing his abdomen, but did not push.

    So Anle increased his strength, and the arms on his body finally responded, and the people around him also finally responded, but they moved towards him and imprisoned him tighter.

    Anle took a breath of air, turned her neck stiffly, and turned her head towards the outside of the bed.He rested on An Xiaoyu’s arm, and An Xiaoyu hugged him sideways, with the tip of her nose almost touching the top of his head. The warm breath passed over his ears, and the slow breathing hit the cochlea one after another, just like the sound of his heartbeat, deafening.

    Anle’s mind was stiff for a full three minutes before it started to work slowly.He held his breath, and little by little he lifted the arm that was pressing on him, and at the same time, he carefully moved toward the side of the bed without making a sound.

    It felt like a century had passed, Anle finally managed to escape from the confinement, and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.But An Xiaoyu seemed to be sleeping soundly and didn’t react at all.

    The windows of the wooden house were made of wooden boards. They were closed tightly at this time, not letting any light through, and it was completely dark.Anle stared at the blackness in front of her with her eyes open, and took several deep breaths to calm down her pounding heart.

    I don’t know what time it was, but except for the occasional barking of a hunting dog, there was no other sound.In the silence, Anle’s thoughts surged wildly, and his mind felt numb.

    I don’t know when I fell asleep again, but when I woke up, I was licked awake by a wet touch.The door was half-opened, and bright sunlight came in from outside. The room was dim but not dark.

    A fluffy gray and yellow puppy licked his face enthusiastically.While pushing the puppy away, Anle stared at the puppy beside him and wondered, “Has such a small dog been brought out to work?”

    The hunting team brought several hunting dogs with them, and Anle couldn’t remember if there was such a small puppy among them. However, the furry touch on the puppy’s body and the sparkling eyes reminded Anle of his golden retriever. Anle couldn’t help but feel soft in his heart, and without thinking too much, he held the puppy under his hands and began to masturbate.

    He had raised the golden retriever dog in his previous life since weaning. Anle made a rough estimate compared to his golden retriever dog. The puppy in front of him was estimated to be no more than four months or so, and it had just started to lose its teeth.It was a cute and fun time, and the little yellow dog enthusiastically moved around in his arms, which also made Anle feel good. He sat on the bed and played with the dog for a long time, until his stomach started to protest, and then he got up.

    There are only two members of the hunting party left behind in the camp, handling the game at the rear of the camp.There are domestic animals raised for food in the village, so what is valued in hunting is not the meat, but the skin and bones, which are used to make fur clothes and weapons.Therefore, prey such as wolves, foxes, raccoon dogs, and lynx will be processed on the spot, while small and harmless wild birds such as rabbits and pheasants will be brought back alive to be raised in captivity.

    There was a stream behind the camp, and the two of them were handling the prey by the stream. Seeing An Le coming, one of them waved and said with a smile: “Lele, get up, the little fish left some food for you, and it’s warming on the stove.”

    “Oh.” Anle scratched his head embarrassedly. He had already seen it before coming here. He came here to pick up a piece of meat for the puppy.The hunting had just begun, and there were not many prey to be handled. Several mink skins and two fox skins were hung on a simple shelf built with branches by the river. Even though there were no animal protection laws in ancient times, it was extremely normal to hunt wild beasts to keep their furs warm. But when he saw the complete raccoon skins and fox skins hanging up, Anle still felt uncomfortable in his heart, so he hurriedly picked up a piece of meat of unknown origin and left.

    The little puppy seemed to be afraid of this place, wandering in circles in the distance without following. It wasn’t until Anle came back that he happily surrounded him again.

    The hunting team usually doesn’t return until evening when they go out. There is no one in the camp all day long and it is very quiet. After Anle played with the puppy for a long time, he began to feel a little bored. However, he was specifically told not to leave the camp, so he had to lie down in the house and take a nap. The puppy seemed to be tired from playing, so he slept next to Anle.

    A sharp whistle broke the silence, and Anle suddenly woke up from his sleep.The bone whistle meant that someone was in danger. Anle’s heart beat rapidly, and he jumped out of bed almost reflexively and ran out of the room.

    It was almost sunset. Anle walked out of the room and saw several members of the hunting team who had returned to the camp. At this time, they heard the whistle and ran quickly in the direction of the whistle.

    The whistle was still sounding, each sound getting faster and faster, like a life-threatening curse.Anle listened to the whistle and her steps became more urgent.

    “Lele! Go back!” Someone saw Anle running past and shouted.

    “An Xiaoyu hasn’t come back yet!” An Le shouted without looking back, running toward the whistle with even more urgency.Everyone’s bone whistle is the same, and the whistle sound is the same. Anle is not sure that the bone whistle at this time comes from An Xiaoyu, but he doesn’t dare to take any chances.

    The bone whistle originated from the east, and there was a place not far from the camp in the east. It was one of the hunting places that he and An Xiaoyu had chosen yesterday.An Xiaoyu didn’t tell him where he was going today before leaving, but for some reason, Anle felt that An Xiaoyu would be there today.
