Chapter 40: Happiness

Zhong Yuan summoned the golden eagle from the sky, and this guy flew tirelessly all day long. He let him land on a nearby big tree to help take care of the two little ones. With the golden eagle here, Zhong Yuan felt very at ease.

Keeping the two little ones in place, Zhong Yuan walked over and dragged the wild boar weighing one or two hundred pounds into the forest. After leaving the sight of the two little ones, Zhong Yuan flew up into the sky with the wild boar to find a water source.

Sister, are your legs really okay? "Seeing that Zhongyuan had already left, Little Cardi timidly looked at the golden eagle on the eye tree and whispered to her sister.

It's really okay, don't believe me, take a look! "Kani answered while standing up and jumping.

Sister, what do you think this uncle does? "Little Cardi quietly scanned the golden eagle on the tree and asked.

Well, I don't know either. You can ask him later! "Kani thought for a moment but couldn't guess what Zhongyuan Daodi was doing.

Xiaokadi shook his head quickly after hearing this, he was too embarrassed to ask Zhong Yuan questions.

Cardi, are you afraid? "After a moment of silence, Kani gently asked Cardi.

Cardi shook her head first and then nodded after listening to her sister's question.

At the beginning, I wasn't afraid, but now I'm a little scared, "Little Cardi explained quickly, afraid that her sister wouldn't understand her meaning.

Sister, can you ask Uncle to accompany us to pick herbs tomorrow? "Little Cardi looked at his sister with anticipation, as if if she would let Zhong Yuan stay. The two little ones didn't know that even if they didn't say anything, Zhong Yuan wouldn't let them roam freely in the forest tomorrow.

I don't know either, Uncle has been through so much trouble, he must be very busy! "Xiaokani said uncertainly. In Xiaokani's heart, Zhongyuan is more powerful than the best hunter in the old village, and there is also an eagle that can carry people. He must be very busy.

Cardi listened to her sister's words, her face filled with disappointment. She said she wasn't afraid, how could she not be afraid? No matter how strong or brave, little Cardi is still just a child.

When Zhongyuan returned with a few pieces of wild boar meat, the siblings had already stopped talking and were flipping over roasted sweet potatoes by the fire. Seeing Zhongyuan come back, the siblings quickly stood up and helped Zhongyuan find a place to put the meat.

Zhong Yuan walked over to the bonfire with a piece of meat and took out some charcoal fire to cut the meat into slices. He then sprinkled some seasoning on the meat slices from his bag and put them in the bonfire to grill. In no time, the aroma of meat wafted out of the bonfire. The siblings, Kani and her brother, were salivating at the smell of the meat. Since Kani's father passed away, the siblings have rarely had meat for a month. They suddenly smelled such a fragrant meat smell, and their stomachs, who had just eaten their fill, suddenly felt hungry again.

Uncle, won't you bring back the other pork? "Xiaokani looked at Zhongyuan's grilled meat and suddenly remembered that there must be a lot of meat left for such a big wild boar.

Uncle, it would be terrible if you were taken away by the beast. Let's go help you move it! "Seeing Zhong Yuan shake her head, Xiao Kani became anxious. How long would it take to eat so much meat? If the beast dragged it away, it would be terrible. She quickly suggested to Zhong Yuan, and Cardi nodded vigorously with agreement.

Listening to the funny words of the two little ones, Zhongyuan couldn't laugh at all. In Zhongyuan's eyes, the food that was within reach made the two little ones so concerned and anxious. Zhongyuan didn't know how many children like the Cardi siblings in the world were willing to sacrifice their lives for a glimmer of hope. Zhongyuan only knew that these two little ones had moved him deeply.

Flipping through the grilled meat on the charcoal fire, Zhong Yuan picked up a notebook and wrote, 'Don't worry, I've picked some meat and hidden it, but I've buried everything else. I'll give you some when you go back.'

Upon seeing the words written by Zhong Yuan, Xiaokani felt a wave of heartache. In Xiaokani's heart, except for pig hair, which she couldn't eat, the whole body of a pig was full of food. In Kani's heart, which took a long time to eat meat, they were all treasures. She didn't expect the uncle in front of her to be buried, but when she looked at the golden eagle on the tree, Xiaokani felt relieved. With this eagle uncle, she didn't even need to lay a hand to catch many prey!

Cardi couldn't recognize all the words written by Zhongyuan, so he could only worry on the side. Seeing that his sister seemed to have finished reading, Cardi quickly pulled her clothes. After Kani read out what Zhongyuan had written, Cardi also looked regretful. Fortunately, Zhongyuan said he had hidden some of them, and when he went back, he had to give some to himself and his sister. Otherwise, after Zhongyuan left, Cardi might have been able to find the wild boar buried by Zhongyuan.

Zhong Yuan reached into his backpack and took out a few plates. He picked out a few ripe ones and put them into the plates, handing them over to the siblings with hopeful expressions on their faces.

The siblings were not polite either. They thanked Zhong Yuan and picked up the grilled meat from their plate to eat. Zhong Yuan was very confident in his barbecue skills. He spent all his time dealing with meat in the forest, and it was impossible for him to reach that level.

A little over a pound of grilled meat was shared and eaten by two siblings, who were satisfied and filled up. Only then did they realize that Zhongyuan hadn't eaten a single piece.

Uncle, I'm sorry, we've all finished eating. Let's help Uncle grill this time! "Kani said awkwardly and was about to go get the meat to grill.

Zhong Yuan waved his hand and picked up his notebook, writing, 'Uncle doesn't have an appetite, just eat some sweet potatoes!', This guy doesn't have an appetite, he's just tired of eating meat and wants to change his taste.

Xiao Kani saw Zhong Yuan say this, so she sat down and picked out a roasted sweet potato that turned yellow and handed it to Zhong Yuan. Unlike Zhong Yuan, the siblings were tired of eating sweet potatoes every day, so they didn't show much interest when they saw Zhong Yuan eating sweet potatoes with relish.

Uncle, are you a hunter? "Little Cardi, who had been silent for a long time, asked Zhong Yuan, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhong Yuan shook his head. How could he call himself a hunter? He just passed by.

Uncle, what are you doing? "Little Cardi asked in confusion. In Cardi's heart, Zhongyuan added the Golden Eagle. It would be a pity if he wasn't a hunter.

What do you do? Zhongyuan really doesn't know what he does! Strictly speaking, he should be a tourist, right? That's right, it's tourists, "Zhong Yuan said confidently in his heart, picking up his notebook and writing the words" tourists "on it.

Uncle, where are you going to travel tomorrow? "Although it's a bit strange to travel here alone, Little Cardi didn't pay much attention. Little Cardi was hoping that Zhongyuan's travel route tomorrow would be in no man's land, so he and his sister could follow him to collect herbs. With Uncle and his eagle around, the siblings wouldn't have to worry about safety anymore.

I don't know, "Zhong Yuan shook his head and wrote in his notebook. By now, how could Zhong Yuan not know what this little guy meant.

Little Cardi knew these three words, and seeing that Zhongyuan had not yet confirmed tomorrow's itinerary, a glimmer of hope rose in Little Cardi's heart.

Uncle, can you come with us to pick herbs tomorrow? "Little Cardi looked carefully at Zhong Yuan's face, afraid that her excessive demands would make Uncle unhappy.

Zhong Yuan smiled to himself. The little guy finally lost his temper. After a long time, he finally got back to the point. Looking at the expectant sisters, Zhong Yuan finally nodded gently.

Uncle, do you agree? "Seeing Zhong Yuan's head, Little Cardi seemed a little incredulous that Zhong Yuan had agreed so easily

When Zhong Yuan nodded again, the two Kani siblings were already so happy that they couldn't find the north. Sometimes happiness is really that simple. In the hearts of the Kani siblings, as long as Zhong Yuan nodded, their safety was guaranteed. If they had better luck tomorrow, little Cardi could go back to school and maybe have some extra money to improve their lives. This is the happy life in the hearts of the Kani siblings.

Zhong Yuan didn't know what to say. For these two easily satisfied children, Zhong Yuan could only feel pity in his heart. He took the tent from his backpack and set it up, calling the siblings into the tent to sleep. The siblings were not like himself, just resting for a while. Zhong Yuan threw a piece of meat to the Golden Eagle, found a place to tie up the hammock, and lay down on it to rest. Of course, Zhong Yuan was not sleeping, but studying various knowledge in the bamboo slips, such as formations and so on. Even the examples in the bamboo slips were not thoroughly studied by Zhong Yuan, let alone for innovation. Therefore, Zhong Yuan would take some time every day to study them, which was not so boring, but rather quite interesting.
