Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Lu Yao, with his back to Ding Mei, said with a grin:

"Sleeping with my mother-in-law is a little awkward. Little Mei, don't get angry unless I accidentally touch you even a little bit."

Ding Mei pinched him from behind:

"Go to sleep, stop talking nonsense."

Actually, she really hopes that Lu Yao can turn around.

I stared wide-eyed at the back of his head.

Lu Yao was actually quite confused.

He's not blind; how could he not see Ding Mei's flirtatious behavior?

He's currently torn between "going on or not going on."

She is Zheng Shuang's mother.

I can't accept her, otherwise I won't be able to see Zheng Shuang again.

don't want?

It looks so damn tempting.

I still remember the feeling of carrying her to the toilet.

Those thighs are so smooth!

A patch of white, fleshy flesh could be seen through the gap under the blindfold.

At this moment, Xiao Meizi must have had those kinds of thoughts.

Her heart is open; it's just a matter of whether I can get in!

Otherwise, I should just get closer to her, since I couldn't have children in my past life anyway.

She can just get married when she's ready, that's all!

But if I'm going to ruin her... given her temper, do you think she'll let me off the hook?

She's absolutely refusing to marry Zheng Wenli now. If I manage to win her over, she'll ignore Zheng Wenli even more.

After agonizing for over an hour, Lu Yao didn't turn around.

I heard Ding Mei's soft breathing behind me.

She's asleep.

A faint fragrance wafted over, and Lu Yao felt a pang of longing.

My body has already honestly swelled up.

I still can't get over my mental block.

At that moment, a small hand reached out from under Lu Yao's ribs and hugged his waist.

A warm, soft feeling on my back.

Lu Yao was shirtless, while Ding Mei was only wearing a sweater.

It was practically zero contact.

This is insane!

Lu Yao turned around and hugged Ding Mei tightly...

"Ouch! You touched my leg!"

Lu Yao was so frightened that he quickly sat up.

I was careless and kicked Ding Mei's broken leg.

By the way, what's there to agonize over?

She's so badly injured, how could she possibly be in the mood for that?

Show her that the splint on her leg hasn't been loosened, and Lu Yao stands up.

Ding Mei asked, "Hey kid, where are you going?"

"Pee!"

Lu Yao didn't dare turn around, afraid that Ding Mei would see his embarrassing state.

A perfectly good, white leg is in a splint; how much addiction must one have to still enjoy it?

I doubt even Xilian could have such a strong addiction, let alone Ding Mei, who has never experienced such things.

Lu Yao carried his gun and wandered around the valley.

There is still no other way out.

Apart from antelopes and hares, there was no sign of any other wild animals.

Lu Yao made a torch and returned to the bear den.

It took about half an hour to explore the entire bear cave.

The bear cave is not large or complicated; it is Y-shaped.

From the entrance, there is only one fork in the road. The mother bear and her cubs live at the top of one fork, while the hot spring valley is at the top of the other fork.

With such excellent resources as the hot spring valley, neither the mother bear nor her cubs lack food.

Moreover, with such a pleasant climate in the hot spring valley, they probably don't need to hibernate; they just need to sleep for a longer period than during the warmer season.

Ding Mei ran in just in time to find them sleeping.

Lu Yao took the torch and walked towards the entrance he had come in through.

Before we even reached the cave entrance, a cold wind howled, making the torches crackle and pop.

From about ten meters away, you could see snowflakes dancing wildly in the night sky.

The original entrance to the cave was partially covered by snow.

Although the storm was smaller than when it arrived, it was still fierce.

We can't leave Ding Mei behind and go back now; we have to wait until dawn.

When Lu Yao returned, Ding Mei was already asleep.

Curled up in two coats, her brows furrowed, she looked like she was in some pain.

Fortunately, there are five or six old Panax notoginseng plants here, which have a very good pain-relieving effect.

Otherwise, she probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight because of the pain.

The next morning, Lu Yao reheated the roast lamb and the two of them ate it.

Lu Yao said, "I'll go out again in a bit to see if the storm has stopped. If it has, I'll carry you home!"

Ding Mei, who was preparing to go home yesterday, suddenly sighed and shook her head, saying:

"I don't want to go home. If I go back like this, my dad will definitely scold me for being useless, and my stepmother will laugh at me too!"

Lu Yao laughed and said, "You can't exactly stay here, can you?"

Ding Mei smiled and said, "Actually, you can go back and get some daily necessities. We'll stay here. It's nice to have food and drink."

Lu Yao reached out and ruffled her hair: "You're such a child. Do you think we're living in seclusion here? Don't I have to support my mom and sister?"

Ding Mei stuck out her tongue.

She also knew that Lu Yao would not agree to stay here with her forever.

That was just a wishful dream of hers; the reason she didn't dare tell Lu Yao was that she actually wanted to be with him.

Lu Yao said, "I've been through this valley a few times, so it shouldn't be dangerous. I'll seal the entrance to the cave with stones, and then I'll go back and check it out. The militiamen are waiting for me. I'll make some arrangements and then bring people to carry you. If you don't want to go home, you can stay at my house for now. I'll stay at Tie Zhu's house."

Ding Mei blushed upon hearing this:

"No way! What kind of situation is it for me to be living in your house without any clear rules?"

Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh and said, "You're my mother-in-law, not an outsider!"

Ding Mei picked up a five-shot burst and slapped him:

"If you say that again, I'll turn on you! I don't want to be a burden to you. You should go back and tell my dad that I broke my leg and ask him to come pick me up. I'll pretend I'm not going back then. Please persuade me, and I'll give you face and my dad a way out, and then I'll go back."

Lu Yao listened and laughed.

This girl is really obsessed with saving face.

"Okay, I'll do it your way. But I need to be careful when I go out. I need to be alert."

"I can take care of myself."

Lu Yao loaded the shotgun shells for her and placed them beside her.

Her left hand was only sprained, and after a night's rest, she was able to support the gun with her right hand.

Lu Yao then gave her several contingency plans for possible scenarios.

Only then did he pick up the Garand rifle and put on his overcoat.

Upon reaching the entrance to the hot spring valley, they moved some stones to seal the cave entrance, leaving a small hole for themselves to climb out. They then found more stones inside the cave to seal the small hole as well.

That way, no wild animals outside will dare to pry open the rocks and come in.

Lu Yao left the bear den.

After a night of blizzard, the mountains were covered in snow, and some trees were half-buried.

Although the sky had cleared up, the ground was still very difficult to walk on.

Every step he took sank into his knees.

You have to wait for the sun to melt the ice before it freezes back into ice, and only after a hard layer forms will it be easier to walk on.

Fortunately, Lu Yao was physically strong, so although he walked slowly, he didn't feel too tired.

After walking for a while, it took us a while to figure out where we were.

It turned out that they were already at Crouching Tiger Ridge, north of Wild Boar Forest.

This is the last named mountain peak. From here on, it becomes a completely untouched and pristine area.

Even when hunting, the people of the commune rarely came here because there were too many unknown dangers.

At this speed, it would take at least half a day to get back to the village at the foot of Rabbit Ridge from here.

Six bullets were used yesterday, leaving only two in the chamber.

There were still twenty-six bullets in his pocket.

Reload the magazine.

If you encounter ordinary wild animals while crossing the Wild Boar Forest, it's manageable, but dealing with a pack of wolves would be much more difficult.

But there's no other way now; we're afraid that not leaving Ding Mei with that five-shot missile would put her in danger.

When we got to Wild Boar Forest, we found Zhang Mazi's carbine and still had quite a few bullets.

But looking at the mountains covered in snow also caused me some worry.

Buried under the blizzard, I wonder if I'll ever find the crevice in the rock where I hid my gun.

Lu Yao was bolder than a pumpkin.

Let's take a gamble: after the blizzard, the wild animals may not immediately come out to hunt.

One man, one gun, headed towards the Wild Boar Forest.
