Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 1048: Scared to death (1)

After Zhong Ning and his companion came here last year, they found it troublesome to collect firewood. After accidentally finding a dead tree in the forest, they also thought about stealing the dead tree.

The two were from the same batch of educated youth, so they automatically huddled together and naturally went up the mountain together.

When they saw the dead tree, they decided to take it back to use as firewood.

However, after the two of them took turns chopping the dead tree with axes for a long time, they only damaged the tree a little, and they were exhausted, so they had no choice but to give up.

They had to give up. If they kept chopping, they would not be able to cut down the tree even if they continued until dark.

Instead, I wasted time collecting firewood.

The diameter of the dead tree at that time was only two-thirds of the smaller one of the two dead trees now.

Zhong and Ning looked at each other, somewhat at a loss.

"What are you two hesitating about? Choose quickly.

After you have made your selection, I can start working." Liu Jingxue urged impatiently.

Zhong Zhiqing could only ask Ning Zhiqing, "Do you want it?"

Ning Zhiqing rolled his eyes at him speechlessly, "What do you think?

I don't want it anyway, and I can't cut it down even if I want it.

If you want it, take it.

But let me make it clear that I won’t help you cut it.

I am even worse now than I was then. I have no strength left in my body and I don’t know how to get down the mountain.”

Zhong Zhiqing quickly shook his head, "I don't want it either. I don't have the strength to cut it."

"Liu Zhiqing, you found this with great difficulty. We don't want it anymore. You can chop it yourself.

We can just pick up some branches nearby." Ning Zhiqing said to Liu Jingxue with a forced smile.

Although the two of them deliberately lowered their voices during their conversation, how could they hide it from the sharp-eyed and sharp-eared Liu Jingxue?

But she pretended not to hear and said to the two of them,

"I said I'd give you one, so I'll give you one. You don't need to be polite to me.

This tree grows in the mountains and forests, and it is not mine, so naturally anyone who sees it should have a share.

You better tell me quickly, which one do you want?"

Zhong Zhiqing waved his hands quickly, "Liu Zhiqing, we really don't want it. We can't take advantage of you."

At this point, the two men still refused by saying they didn't want to take advantage of her, without mentioning that they couldn't cut the wood at all.

"Yes, Liu Zhiqing, we really don't want it.

We just planned to pick up some branches today, we didn't plan to cut down any trees, and we didn't even bring an axe.

Even if you give us the tools, we don’t have them to cut down trees.” Ning Zhiqing made an excuse.

When Liu Jingxue heard this, she quickly reached out and pulled out the axe from her waist.

"That's nothing. You didn't bring an axe, so I brought one. I'll just lend it to you.

I don’t need it anyway.”

Having said that, without waiting for the two to refuse, she reached out and threw the axe over. The tip of the blade pierced directly between Zhong Zhiqing's open legs, just a few centimeters away from the base of his thigh.

Liu Jingxue did it on purpose.

Listening to the conversation between the two along the way, it is obvious that this person has a stronger willpower and can stay calmer.

She had to scare this person first and break his defense.

Looking at the axe stuck straight between his legs, with the blade only a few centimeters away from his younger brother, Zhong Zhiqing was so scared that he sat there without daring to move.

At this time, Ning Zhiqing was also frightened by this scene.

He was now extremely grateful that Liu Zhiqing did not throw the axe at him, otherwise his little brother would have almost suffered.

At this moment, Ning Zhiqing felt a chill between his legs.

He just felt a little chilly, but Zhong Zhiqing felt a warmth flowing between his legs.

When he reacted, he quickly sat on the ground and moved back a distance. After getting away from the axe, he quickly curled up his legs together, trying to cover up something.

Liu Jingxue, whose nose became extremely sensitive after practicing, smelled a strong smell of urine. After seeing Zhong Zhiqing's actions, she seemed to know something.

I felt even more contempt for the man named Zhong. He was so scared that he peed his pants. He was too cowardly.

She knew exactly when she threw it, so it definitely wouldn't hurt him.

Zhong Zhiqing curled up, reached out to pick up the axe, and threw it towards Liu Jingxue. The axe fell to the ground still far away from Liu Jingxue.

Zhong Zhiqing said with a look on his face, not sure whether he was crying or laughing.

"Liu Zhiqing, no need for that. Just keep the axe for yourself. I really don't need it."

Thinking of the machete he brought with him, he quickly picked it up as if he had found a life-saving straw and gestured to Liu Jingxue,

“Look, I brought this.

I can use this to chop wood, I don't need an axe.

You should take it back.”

Looking at the machete in Zhong Zhiqing's hand and then at Ning Zhiqing, Liu Jingxue's eyes lit up and she wondered whether she should do the same to Ning Zhiqing.

"Since you insist on not taking the axe, I won't force you." Liu Jingxue said as she walked forward and picked up the axe.

"Ning Zhiqing, how about I lend you my axe?"

As Liu Jingxue spoke, she pretended to throw the axe at Ning Zhiqing.

When Ning Zhiqing heard this, he was so scared that he immediately closed his legs which were originally open, and then rolled and crawled to the side to hide.

At the same time, he refused, "No, no, I also brought a machete, so I don't need an axe.

You should keep it for yourself."

Seeing that everyone had gotten up and ran away, Liu Jingxue could not do the same thing and had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​scaring Ning Zhiqing in the same way.

“Well, since you don’t want it, I’ll keep it myself.

But which tree do you choose?"

"No, no, we don't want the tree, Liu Zhiqing can keep it for himself." Ning Zhiqing quickly waved his hands.

Liu Jingxue had no intention of giving the dead tree to them. It was a tool she used to scare the two of them, so how could she give it away?

Besides, these two trees will be enough to support the cowshed for one and a half months.

She couldn't get over the fact that she was giving it away for nothing to someone who hated her.

There's nothing I can do about it, she's just such a stingy person.

"Okay, if you don't want it then don't."

Thinking that Zhong Zhiqing had been scared to death by her action just now, it was not certain whether both of them would be scared to death after seeing her actions.

I took the two of them for another walk. It couldn't be a waste of time. I had to give them some benefits.

"Since you don't want the tree, I'll give you the dead branches on the tree later."

Anyway, when she dragged the two trees down the mountain, she was sure to cut off the branches to prevent them from getting in the way.

It would be better to do them a favor and give it to them both.

At this time, Zhong Zhiqing had become autistic and silent.

He now hoped that the other two people present had not seen his humiliating scene or smelled anything.

He curled his legs together tightly, hoping that would keep the smell out.

But this might just be an act of covering up one's own faults, after all, his nose was always filled with some indescribable smell.

He didn't look at the other two, who were now standing far away from him.

Ning Zhiqing, who was originally one or two meters away from him, was now almost ten meters away from him.

However, Ning Zhiqing was standing downwind from him. What was the point of being far away? The wind would blow the smell over.
