Chapter 471 Who is coming?
After staying in the village for two days, the doctors decided what kind of treatment to use. Shen Wenchen also sent people to various villages, and he led a group of people into the mountains.
Now the trees at the foot of the mountain have long since died, and they are gradually spreading deeper into the woods.
The number of rats coming down from the mountains is getting smaller and smaller, but their size is getting bigger and bigger.
He had to go and see on the spot. If he could find their habitat, he might be able to solve the rat plague.
Wang Jingzhi stayed in the village with the two doctors. Apart from daily acupuncture and pulse diagnosis, he also became friends with the second master.
Although the second boss is a few years older than him, they can still chat when they meet.
After a few days, Shen Wenchen led a group of people to visit the surrounding mountains under the leadership of the villagers. However, except for the occasional prey, he could only see the withered and rotten branches falling on the ground in layers, and the mice But there was not a single hole in sight.
"General, are we going back?"
Looking at the mountain forest covered with snow in front of him, Aze rubbed his hands.
This winter was too cold, and the snow under his feet was so deep that by the end of the day, most of his body was already frozen.
"Let's go back."
Shen Wenchen took a deep look at the rolling mountains at his feet and only waved his hand.
This is the fifth mountain.
They had been going up the mountain since before dawn, and now the moon had climbed into the clouds, but they had not received anything.
They were able to catch some prey two days ago, but today, a group of seven people only caught two pheasants.
"good."
The group rubbed their hands and shook off the ice crust on their bodies before staggering down the mountain.
Shen Wenchen stepped in the snow, feeling uncontrollably worried.
I haven’t seen you for a few days, so I don’t know what the city is like now.
I don’t know how the people are doing, and whether Nannan Hezhiyu and the others miss him.
"General, there's a deer!"
A group of people were walking, and a young man at the back heard a rustling sound behind him. Just when he thought it was a group of rats, he saw a pair of antlers protruding from the forest.
One person and one deer were ten meters apart. Through the moonlight, he met the owner of the pair of antlers.
It was an old deer, tall and with some defects on its antlers, probably because it was too old. When it met his eyes, it just barked softly and then walked silently down the mountain.
When Shen Wenchen heard his movements, they all stopped and turned to look in his direction.
With a rustling sound, its figure suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.
Unlike usual, the deer showed no sign of being frightened. He just glanced at them and then staggered down the mountain.
Everyone was a little confused, and one of the older hunters whispered.
"It's an old deer. He probably knew he was dying and wanted to find a place to die."
"Then shall we..."
someone asked.
Although there is still food in the village now, who knows whether those fields will be able to grow viable food after spring?
If we still can’t grow food by then, what will everyone do?
The prey brought back before were marinated and dried.
What about this deer?
If you take it back and remove the fur and internal organs, you can still have more than a hundred kilograms of meat left.
The old hunter didn't speak, but looked at Shen Wenchen who was aside.
Feeling that everyone's eyes were on him, Shen Wenchen didn't speak, but quickly bent his bow and arrow, aiming at the deer.
As if feeling something in his heart, the old deer suddenly stopped and then turned to look at them again.
A man and a deer met each other's eyes. Shen Wenchen frowned slightly with the word "Sichuan" between his brows, but the deer seemed to have accepted his fate. He only glanced at him, then closed his eyes and fell to the ground.
Shen Wenchen put away his bow and arrows, and Aze ran over quickly.
"General, this deer is dead!"
Aze only shouted softly.
Shen Wenchen was startled, a little dazed.
He never thought the deer would die like this.
Although the others also found it strange, but now that the deer was dead, the village could store more food, so they were naturally happy.
They all ran there, thinking about how to bring the deer back to the village.
"General, the deer is dead, let's go."
The old hunter only whispered these words and went over there.
It was already late at night when the group of people braved the wind and snow to return to the village.
Everyone just cheered when they saw the deer they brought back.
Although most of the meat has to be saved, the bones and internal organs can also be used for toothpaste.
In the city lord's palace, Nanzhi was tossing and turning. Finally, when the child in her belly kicked her belly for the thirty-second time, Nanzhi couldn't help but get up.
She always felt a little uneasy.
But this feeling doesn't feel like a bad thing.
So what exactly is it?
Mapo was awakened by her movements. Seeing that she really couldn't sleep, she just wrapped her clothes and went to the kitchen to prepare the soothing soup.
"What is going to happen?"
Nanzhi frowned, touching his belly with one hand to comfort his second child, and twirling his hair with one hand to think about something.
Shen Zhiyu turned around in bed all night, unable to fall asleep. After hesitating for a long time, he still put on his underwear and left the room.
Seeing that the door to Nanzhi's house was ajar and the candle was still burning, the little guy asked softly outside the door.
"Auntie, aren't you sleeping too?"
Shen Zhiyu had two dark circles under his eyes, and his small face was already a little red due to the wind.
"Come and wrap yourself up in bed, don't get cold."
Nanzhi loosened her hair and called Shen Zhiyu to come to the bed.
"Auntie, I can't sleep." Shen Zhiyu shook his head and wrapped himself tightly in the quilt.
"You can't just run out in your underwear if you can't sleep, you understand?"
Nanzhi rubbed his little hands and then said.
"I know I was wrong, ma'am. I'll put on my clothes and come out next time."
Xiao Zhiyu nodded and looked at her bulging belly again.
"Mom, is the baby disobedient again?"
"Well, maybe I miss your father."
Nanzhi rubbed his belly with a peaceful smile on his face.
Usually when sleeping at night, Shen Wenchen would gently rub his waist and abdomen, and talk to his second son.
He has been away for several days. Not only himself, but maybe the baby also misses him.
"I miss my dad too." Xiao Zhiyu's head drooped instantly.
"Good boy Zhiyu, daddy will be back when he's done with his work."
Nanzhi rubbed the little guy's face and said.
The mother and son were talking when they suddenly heard a soft sound on the roof.
It was like something stepped on the tiles.
Although the voice was subtle, both mother and son heard it, and they stopped talking immediately and stared at the position of the roof.
It's so late, who could it be?
