Chapter 859: Grove

Behind the bamboo grove is a forest that extends into the mountains.
There is a river in the woods, and the source is in the mountains.
Ning Tao came from the mountain and now goes to the mountain, which is in the opposite direction to Wucheng.
"Mother, there are mushrooms!" Not long after entering the woods, Ding Ling found the mushrooms and ran to the place where the mushrooms were found.
Xue Weiyang was also in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Mr. has no need to laugh, Linger is a bit scalp, but very sensible."
In such a difficult living environment, even a child like Ding Ling will be sharpened and matured. The old saying is good. The children of the poor have headed home early. She has lost her father since she was a child. Her mother is weak and sick. She is also supporting this stormy home with her small skinny shoulders.
Ning Tao said with a smile: "If only I had such a smart and well-behaved daughter."
He really wanted to have a daughter, but the five women in the family were unconvinced. No matter how hard he tried, their stomachs didn't react at all.
He felt it, but the listener seemed to understand something else.
Xue Weiyang secretly looked at Ning Tao with the light from the corner of her eye, and a hint of redness appeared on her cheek. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Sir, where are you from?"
"Penglai," Ning Tao said.
Xue Weiyang said in surprise: "Is Penglai Xiandao?"
Ning Tao smiled and glanced at her: "There is a small island beside Penglaixian Island. I haven't actually seen any Penglaixian Island, after all, it is a legendary place."
Xue Weiyang looked slightly relieved: "Just now, I thought you were a fairy."
Ning Tao just smiled and looked at Ding Ling, who was picking mushrooms on the ground with her buttocks. He really likes this little girl. If any of the five women in the family gave him such a daughter, life would be perfect.
"Sir, is there anyone else in your family?" Xue Weiyang asked again.
Ning Tao hesitated for a moment, pondering in his heart, and then said, "My family is in another world. In this world, I am just a person with no roots and no peace, wandering around."
"Oh." Xue Weiyang's mouth flickered with joy, and she didn't know what was in her heart and what was happy.
Ding Ling came back with the basket in her hands, and her little hands were full of mud. There were two little mushrooms in the bamboo basket. At this point, mushrooms were not enough for her to eat two mouths, but she was very happy, and handed the basket to Ning Tao: "Uncle, look, what a good mushroom."
Ning Tao touched her little head and said with a smile: "Linger is really good. You and your mother pick wild vegetables here. I'll look elsewhere and have some game."
"Uncle, I'm going too." Ding Ling stared at Ning Tao gazingly.
Ning Tao wanted to reject her, but seeing her pitiful eyes full of innocence, he could not harden his heart.
Ding Lingming was not his daughter, but he didn't know why, but he wanted to treat her as his own daughter. It is said that her daughter is the lover of her last life, and the intimate little cotton-wool jacket in this life, but he has no daughter, but she has suffered from her daughter's illness. He hesitated for only two or three seconds, then changed his mind: "Okay, let's go together."
"Uncle you are so nice." Ding Ling reached out and hugged Ning Tao's leg.
"Linger, don't be naughty." Xue Weiyang learned.
Ding Ling hurriedly loosened Ning Tao's legs and dropped her head, afraid to visit her mother-in-law.
However, Ning Tao picked up Ding Ling and put it on his shoulder: "Go, uncle will take you to hunt."
"Giggle ..." Ding Ling smiled happily, a pair of muddy hands holding Ning Tao's head.
This is probably the first time she has been lifted up in her life.
Her father never gave her such a small cotton jacket benefit, and Ning Tao came to her today.
"Mr. can't make it, can't make it." Xue Weiyang said anxiously, following Ning Tao's footsteps.
Ning Tao just trot up.
Xue Weiyang's expression of crying and laughing was impossible.
The woods were full of Ding Ling's crisp laughter.
Ning Tao didn't plan to go far, and when Ding Ling rode a horse, he stopped and then awakened his eyes and nose to look and smell. Instantly, the starry weather field entered his field of vision, and thousands of smells penetrated his nostrils.
Some small animals in this wood, even the ants crawling in the grass, couldn't escape his sight.
If he wants to be a hunter, China has thousands of years of history. If he recognizes second, I am afraid no one dare to recognize first.
He quickly locked a prey, not far from the front, on a meadow behind a few trees, a mule. It was grazing on the grass, holding its ears up, keeping its instincts alert.
Ning Tao hugged Ding Ling from her shoulder and whispered, "Uncle has found the prey. You stay here, I will catch it."
Xue Weiyang came over with a curious look on his face: "Sir, you don't have a bow and arrow, how do you hunt?"
Ning Tao smiled: "I never use bows and arrows for hunting."
Having said that, he bent down and picked up a stone from the ground, then stomped towards the mule.
If he didn't keep the low-key intentionally, he released a shot in the flesh and flew away after a brief moment. He was said to be a bitch, even a flying bird could not escape. But it's better to keep a low profile, otherwise it's really treated as a fairy, then it's not easy to get along.
Behind Ning Tao, Ding Ling's pair of black eyes were full of childlike and worshipped gods: "Mother, uncle is so good, you can hunt with prey."
"Don't make a noise, otherwise you will scare away the prey." Xue Weiyang said a little nervously, her eyes never left the back of Ning Tao, her eyes were very different from those of Ding Ling.
The most eager and most needed thing for a woman in a troubled world is security, and she can get an unprecedented sense of security from Ning Tao. I do n’t know why, staying with Ning Tao, her heart is very peaceful. Many It seemed that her suffering and danger had left her.
Ning Tao never noticed Xue Weiyang's different look behind him. He sneaked behind the row of trees and then leaned out his head.
The mule did not find anyone approaching at all, nor could it be found, because there was no sound under Ning Tao's feet, and even his breath was blocked.
Ning Tao waved his arm violently, and the stone flew off his hand.
Huh!
The stone cracked and made a noise.
The grazing mule looked up, but didn't wait for it to see something approaching, and the stone hit its head. With a muffled sound, it fell down and died instantly, very simply.
Ning Tao walked over and lifted the sister-in-law, turned around and walked back.
"Uncle is so amazing!" When I saw Ning Tao who was put back with a mule, I ran up and ran up, very excited.
Xue Weiyang had a startled expression, "Sir, did you really hit a with a stone?"
Ning Tao smiled: "It's just good luck. If I have a bow and arrow, I'm willing to use a bow and arrow."
"Uncle, will you stay?" Ding Ling suddenly said such a sentence.
Ning Tao froze for a moment, but didn't know how to answer for a while.
A widow with a little daughter, who stayed as a man, wouldn't it be that?
"Linger, you don't have to keep your mouth open, some or some words can't be said." Xue Weiyang's face turned red, ashamed and anxious.
Ding Ling said, "Mother, you obviously want your uncle to stay, but you dare not speak, I dare to speak, uncle, you stay?"
Xue Weiyang raised his hand: "You, you nonsense, I hit you!"
Ding Ling said stubbornly, "You have to hit me."
After that, she also made a face at Xue Weiyang.
What a clever child, you can see the thoughts of your mother, and you can seize the opportunity. Such IQ and EQ, I am afraid, even in the modern society more than 2,000 years later, they can crush the vast majority of children. But think about the reason why she is so mature and attentive, isn't that caused by this difficult and difficult environment? Her well-behaved and intelligent also brought a little sadness.
After all, Xue Weiyang's raised slap was not willing to fall on Ding Ling's little butt, but glanced at Ning Tao with Yu Guang from the corner of his eye.
Ning Tao was embarrassed and had a headache.
He was destined to be a passerby, and he didn't know when he left. The only thing he knew was that it couldn't be long. Wouldn't it be a dream in the end if he stayed as a superfluous man?
If it was another woman, he wouldn't even think about it. But she was also the spirit of the ancestor Dan, who was full of dreams and wanted to find and take away the woman.
"Sir ... Don't take it seriously, child." Xue Weiyang's eyes were lost and eclipsed, and her mood dropped dramatically.
Ning Tao put away her thoughts and said with a smile: "Stay and stay. There is nothing wrong with it. Let's go back and eat meat today."
"You ..." Xue Weiyang couldn't believe his ears.
Ning Tao just smiled at her, and she had goodness in her eyes ~ EbookFREE.me ~ with righteousness and expectations.
Ding Ling took Xue Weiyang's hand: "Mother, what are you doing, my uncle told us to go back."
"Oh." Xue Weiyang then returned to her mind, afraid to look at Ning Tao's eyes, and lowered her head and headed towards the home. But when he was carrying Ning Tao, his face was full of happy smiles.
If this matter is in modern times, the widow blind date must also ask the man if he has a house or a car, how much money he saves, how much monthly income he has. But in the ancient times when there was a lot of trouble, there are those who are particular about it. Being alive is already the biggest wish. If you meet the right one, you can spend it together. What's more, she still picked up a treasure, how could she not be happy.
"Wangwang ..."
There was a sound of dog barking in the deep woods, and the sound of people running.
Xue Weiyang and Ding Ling suddenly became nervous.
Ning Tao awakened her eyes to look at the surgery, and immediately frowned.
