An orphan girl from a farming family: Everyday farming in the mountains during natural disasters

Unable to dig the yams, Xia Qingyue went back to dig up the four yams and also dug up a few camellias to take back.

Next, she wanted to dig up the camellia flowers, catch more fish, and stay in the tiankeng for a while.

In the four hours of the afternoon, she made three trips and dug up more than ten camellia plants. Before she could plant them, it was getting dark, so she hurried to collect the fish cages.

She stood in the stream collecting the fish cage, while Heihei stood on the shore with his head raised and looking out to the wind.

Suddenly, a low grunting sound came from Heihei's mouth.

Xia Qingyue, who was familiar with it, immediately realized that danger was coming. She looked in the direction of the dark line of sight and saw several people walking towards her from the woods on the other side.

They got closer and closer, and soon came to the bank of the stream.

There are three men and two women.

One of the young women, who was about fifteen or sixteen years old, pointed at Xia Qingyue and said, "Hey, look, that person has a fish cage in his hand. It looks like it contains a lot of fish and shrimps!"

Another skinny middle-aged woman said excitedly:

"Yes, we have been fishing in the stream for a few days, but we only caught some small ones. If we had a fish cage, we would definitely be able to catch a lot of big fish!"

"Go borrow the fish cage from that man." The young woman said in a soft voice.

The three silent men stared at the fish cage in Xia Qingyue's hand.

One of the young men, who was a few years older than the young woman, slowly shifted his gaze to Xia Qingyue with ill intent in his eyes.

"She also has a dog, so strong!" exclaimed the bearded middle-aged man, with greed in his eyes.

The young man's eyes were glued to Xia Qingyue. "Dad, cousin, let's go talk to that girl and ask her to lend it to us."

The man called cousin was dark and strong. His stomach made a rumbling sound and he swallowed saliva madly. His eyes were dark and his gaze moved back and forth between Heihei and the fish cage.

With a splash, the three men stepped into the stream.

However, before they had taken two steps, three stones were thrown towards them one after another and passed by their faces.

"do not come!"

Xia Qingyue held a slingshot in her hand, her expression cold and murderous intent surging in her calm eyes. She stared at the three men closely.

"Girl, don't get excited. We are not bad people. We just want to borrow the fish cage from you." The young man smiled what he thought was a very friendly smile.

"No, I'll give you one chance to leave on your own!"

On the shore, the young woman stamped her feet and accused in a delicate voice: "How can you be so selfish? We are just borrowing your fish cage for a while, it's nothing serious!"

"Girl, we are not lending it to you for free. When we catch fish with the fish cage, we will share some with you as a reward." The older man tried to persuade Xia Qingyue.

"Borrowing things requires mutual consent from both parties. Sorry, I don't want to!" Xia Qingyue pulled the slingshot in her hand tight, her whole body ready to go.

She was not blind, nor was she stupid. The way those people looked at her with heihei eyes were full of ill intentions, completely different from the Xiuxiu family she met last time.

"Uncle, Brother Lang, there are so many of us and she is only one. Can't we solve the problem?" The dark and strong man had a vicious look in his eyes.

"Big Blackie, what do you mean?" the older man glanced sideways.

Langdi was the young man. He asked stupidly, "Cousin, Dad, what do you mean?"

Da Heizi said, "Why don't we just take her things? With so many fish, a dog, and a fish cage, we won't have to worry about food and drink for a long time."

The older man looked at Xia Qingyue, his eyes fixed on the slingshot in her hand, and he was a little afraid. "The stone shot by that thing in that girl's hand is very accurate. She also has a dog. Can we do it?"

"Uncle, she's just a woman and a beast. Among the three of us men, which one isn't taller and stronger than them?" Da Heizi was impatient and was ready to take action.

He stared at Xia Qingyue and took a step forward.

The next second, a stone came rushing towards him, and by the time he noticed it, it was already in front of him.

The stone grazed his neck precisely.

The moment the stone fell, blood flowed from his neck.

Da Heizi only felt a slight pain on his neck as if he was bitten by an ant, and then a warm liquid flowed down his neck. He raised his hand in a daze, touched his neck, took it down and saw that his hands were covered in blood.

"Ah, cousin, you're bleeding so much!" The young man was timid and sat down in the water.

Da Heizi didn't care at all. He touched his neck again. Half of the blood was gone. His eyebrows were cold and he said, "It's just a small stone. Uncle, let's go over there quickly, otherwise it will be snatched away by others when they come!"

The older man finally wavered and pulled up his son who had fallen into the river.

The three of them stepped forward.

The other party was so stubborn that Xia Qingyue sneered in her heart.

They are willing to die without caring about their own lives. Okay, okay, she will grant their wish!

If the two sides were close, she might be worried about not being able to take action, but there was a distance between them, and the stones shot by the slingshot could have considerable power.

She turned her head, lowered her eyes and called out "Heihei", and gave it a look.

The brilliant glow of the sunset gradually faded, night fell, and a tall and straight figure walked out of the woods beside the stream.

The light was dim, and I could first see his strong and three-dimensional facial features, but my face was blurry and unclear, until we walked to an open area, and under the cold moonlight, his face was revealed.

A few seconds later, a big white dog jumped out from behind him.

The big white-haired dog looked towards the stream and saw Heihei in it at a glance.

"Mmmmm." Xiaobai tilted his head back and made a low, soft sound to his master.

The man also saw the situation in the stream. He stared at Xia Qingyue not far away and said in a calm voice, "She is in trouble."

As he spoke, he took the bow and arrow from his back, drew the string, and was about to attack when he saw Xia Qingyue make a move.

With a few whooshing sounds, stones were shot out one after another.

At the same time, Heihei ran over like lightning to meet the attack.

"Ouch!"

"Ah, it hurts!"

The young father and son were hit in the eyes one after the other, and they both covered their eyes with their hands.

Several elderly men were seriously injured and had blood flowing from their eyes.

Both of them stopped because of injuries.

Heihei jumped forward and pounced on Daheizi.

When Da Heizi saw the dog meat delivered to his door, he licked his mouth with his tongue. A hand hidden behind him suddenly stretched forward, holding a sharp stone.

He picked up a stone and threw it at Heihei.

At the critical moment, Heihei turned his body and jumped onto a stone more than two meters away and stood still.

Daheizi's eyes followed Heihei, he tilted his head and leaned his body, wanting to give chase.

At this moment, a sharp stone flew over and scratched the wound on Daheizi's neck again.

The flesh was torn apart, the wound more than doubled in size, and blood gushed out.

Da Heizi seemed as if all the strength in his body had been suddenly drained away, and he knelt in the water with his legs bent.

With a loud splash, water splashed everywhere, and the splashed water droplets fell quickly, causing ripples on the water surface.

The blood dripped, merged with the stream water, and was quickly washed away.

The kneeling Da Heizi was shaking, and his eyes were becoming more and more blurred and out of focus.

After a few seconds, he fell forward, face down, into the stream, and remained motionless for a long time.
