Chapter 628: Young Xue Li
The next day, the sky gradually became brighter.
The dew in the mountains is heavy, and the green plantains on the ridges of the fields have almost bent over. The mist of water slowly gathers on the wide leaves, and finally forms drops of water droplets the size of rice grains, which hang down and moisturize the earth.
The old man who cut the woodcutter yawned and waved his shoulders sleepily as a preheating for the next morning's work.
“阿爷,我肚子好饿.”
Behind the old woodcutter was a boy in his teenage years old, with a dusty face and long hair shawls tied behind his head with rubber bands, but his eyes were particularly bright, looking at his grandfather who was rushing forward and complaining with a bitter face.
The old woodcutter did not stop, looked up at the burnt clouds in the sky, and said without looking back: "Walk faster, the sun will come out soon and you won't be too hot... If you want to eat a nest, we'll start eating after cutting ten kilograms of wood."
The boy had a dark face, but did not continue to entangle. Instead, he touched his stomach and looked around, then licked the corner of his mouth, and said, "I wish I could catch a rabbit today!"
The old woodcutter who walked up to the front laughed and said in a slight way: "You are so easy to catch as a rabbit. If the stupid rabbit hadn't been killed by himself yesterday, would you think we could really catch it with our bare hands?"
The boy didn't care and muttered, "Maybe there is still something today. I'll wait under that tree in a while..."
Halfway through the words, the young man put a plop on the back of the old woodcutter in front of him without paying attention.
The old woodcutter cuts trees all year round, and his body is focused on being stable. Even if he walks and stands, his already hunched body is still as stable as Mount Tai.
When the boy bumped like this, the old woodcutter had nothing to do, but the boy fell apart in mud.
"Grandma, what are you doing?!" The young man sat up with his hands behind his back, raised his head and complained to the old woodcutter.
However, the boy's gaze blurred, and his little mouth suddenly grew big, and the terrified look in his eyes slowly rose.
"Monster, monster..."
The old woodcutter took two steps back tremblingly. The morning mist had not yet dissipated, and the visibility was only about ten meters.
Before I could pay attention to it, I got closer and found that there was a big white monster lying in the wheat field of the village head Wang's house.
The big monster was snow-white all over, his butt was so strong that he could slap his strength. There were a strange object on each of his buttocks. The object had four very large leaves and was slowly turning around at this time.
After a closer look, I saw that the monster's butt and top had a piece of fish fins on both sides of the butt. The old woodcutter was familiar with this shape. There was a big fish in the river that had this thing on its back.
"Is it a big water monster?" The old woodcutter pulled out the axe from his waist, his face turned blue and slowly retreated back.
"This big water monster is too big, higher than the city wall in the county..."
The old woodcutter looked at the monster in front of him in panic, fearing that he would wake it up if he was moving a little bigger.
"Ouch!"
He moved back one more step, and stepped on the little grandson's leg forever. The old woodcutter was so scared that he was so brave that he turned around and picked up the boy and ran back to the village, asking everyone to run away quickly.
But the boy's voice had already alarmed something.
I heard the sound of rustling friction from the surrounding bushes, as if something was quickly approaching their grandfather and grandson.
The old woodcutter was too nervous and stepped on his left foot and threw himself into the grass with his grandson in his arms. The grandfather and grandson were still in shock. They looked at the big white monster not far away. Seeing that the monster was still facing them with his butt, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But the movement in the grass became louder and closer, and it was obvious that some monsters were approaching them quickly.
The old woodcutter tightened his little grandson in his arms, held an axe in his right hand and pointed it at the bushes. As long as something rushed out, whether it was a jackal, tiger and leopard, or the monster's demon son and grandson, he must cut it first.
The bushes were suddenly opened.
"Hey, there are really people."
"Well?"
Looking at the person who suddenly appeared in front of him, the old woodcutter looked closely and found that he was really a man, a tall and strong man.
The joy of the surviving disaster gradually occupied the fear. When the old woodcutter saw that the other party was powerful, he seemed to see a life-saving straw, and hurriedly asked for help: "Help, monster, there are monsters in the mountains..."

Wang Dachui frowned slightly, where did the monster come from?
He was stunned for a moment, and his eyes moved towards the airship not far away, and he immediately understood.
He sighed with a wry smile. The husband told him to try not to alarm the nearby villagers, but he was discovered.
Looking at the old man and the young man who were trembling all over behind him, Wang Dachui didn't know how to explain the current situation. After all, some strange things they are commonplace are indeed too incredible to ordinary people.
"Brother, don't be afraid first. That's not a monster, but... don't be afraid anyway."
Wang Dachui reached out to help the old woodcutter up. The grandfather and grandson were so scared that they were still trembling.
At this time, more than a dozen men jumped out one after another in the woods on both sides, holding a strange stick in their hands, staring at the old woodcutter and the boy.
Wang Dachui raised his thick eyebrows and signaled them to put away the weapons in their hands. He lowered his head and said to the old woodcutter with apologies: "Brother-in-law, don't be afraid first. That thing is called an airship. It's our mount. It's really not a monster."
The old woodcutter didn't expect that this man and his accomplices would glance around vigilantly. Seeing that they were all smiling at him and his grandson, they slowly let go of their uneasiness. No matter what, these people were not ghosts no matter how they looked at them, they should be safe.
"By the way, my father-in-law, that piece of land belongs to your village, right?"
"Uh, yes, yes...that wheat field belongs to the Widow Wang from the village entrance, that monster..."
Wang Dahui signaled at the team members next to him and explained with a smile: "Brother-in-law, that's really not a monster. Forget it, you don't believe it if you explain it. Why don't you come close to us and take a look?"
"Ah? No, no, no, no, I am old man, it's not okay if I believe it."
Seeing that the father-in-law was not confident enough to speak, Wang Dachui looked at the boy and saw that he was looking at the airship without blinking. He was no longer full of fear. He couldn't help but exclaim: "The little guy is a little braver, he is bolder than you, the old man."
As he said that, Wang Dachui took out a bag of jerky from his backpack and said, "Little guy, you have been screaming since the beginning. You are hungry, I'll give you this."
The boy looked like a frightened little wolf cub. He first hid behind the old woodcutter, but looking around, he was full of tall and strong man like the big brother in front of him. He knew that he had nowhere to hide, but he had no worries.
He sniffed his head and sniffed. The unique meat fragrance and fragrance of spices of beef made his stomach scream again without any effort.
The old woodcutter looked around Wang Dachui and others. Seeing that these men were all kind-hearted, he calmed down and reached out to pat the young man on the shoulder and said, "Li'er, since it is a reward from his senior, you can take it. Don't destroy my Xue family's character."
The boy looked at the beef jerky in Wang Dachui's hand and remembered that his younger brother and sister had not eaten meat for a long time. He was very moved. When he heard that his grandfather actually agreed to accept the gift, he hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed to Wang Dachui and others.
"Hedong Xue Family, Xue Li, Brother Xie... I will rebuild my ancestors' glory in the future and will definitely not forget my elder brother's kindness."
Wang Dachui and others were stunned for a moment, thinking that this young man seemed to be unusual, and he could even say a lot of thanks.
