Therefore, the two groups of people gathered around together and rested. As some people went to the water source nearby to get some water, an azure figure blended into the group seamlessly.
“Is the water ready? I’ve hunted a wild boar, we can go back to roast it and share with everyone.” Feng Jiu’s hand held a wild boar that weighed about a hundred catty and spoke to the people getting water.
They glanced at the young boy. When they saw the young boy who wasn’t physically strong, had a simple smile on his face and was holding a wild boar in his hand, they stepped forward and said: “Come, let me help! We have filled enough water. Brother, did you hunt this huge boar all by yourself?”
“I can’t let Elder Brother call me brother, just call me Little Jiu.” She grinned and scratched her head: “I was just lucky. The wild boar was injured when I caught it. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy to catch it.”
“Little Jiu? That’s easy to remember.” The strong man said with a smile as he picked up the wild boar that Feng Jiu had placed on the ground.
“What about Elder Brother? How shall I address you?” She asked with a smile and looked at the young strong man.
“My surname is Chai. I am a collateral relative of the Chai family and I’ve come out with them for an experience this time. You can call me Brother Chai.” The young man said to Feng Jiu: “Come, let’s go back! We are in the innermost area now, next time don’t go too far alone to hunt game lest you run into danger.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu’s eyes squinted as she smiled: “Thank you Brother Chai for reminding me, I will remember.” She walked back with him and chatted with him along the way.
When the people who were sitting around resting saw that they had come back with a huge wild boar, they were surprised. The middle aged man who was leading the Chai Family looked at the young man and asked: “Where did you get the wild boar?” Wild boars were rare in this area and they hadn’t seen any along the way.
“I didn’t hunt it. It was Little Jiu. ” The young strong man replied. He patted Feng Jiu, who was next to him, on the shoulder and continued speaking to the middle aged man: “Second uncle, let’s deal with the wild boar and roast it and share it with everyone. You can have a rest first.”
The middle aged man glanced at the simple and honest looking young boy in azure and smiled: “Alright, you go on then!” He gestured and then looked back at the men and women on the opposite side.
However, at this moment, Feng Jiu walked over and smiled into crescents as she looked at one of the men: “Brother Fan, can you come with me to collect branches?”
The young man who had been called was startled. He looked at the young boy in azure and said: “Of course.” He stood up and smiled at several people, then walked into the woods with Feng Jiu.
“Your name is Little Jiu?” Fan Yixiu asked, turning his head slightly to look at Feng Jiu.
“Yes! Brother Fan can call me Little Jiu.” She smiled and squinted her eyes as she picked up dry branches in the forest. When she saw some dry branches on the branches of the trees, she jumped up and broke them off.
The two of them chatted while they gathered branches. When they arrived at the resting place, Feng Jiu took the branches from his arms and said: “Go and rest Brother Fan! When the roast meat is ready I will bring it over for everyone.” Having said that, she turned and walked over to the place where the boar was being roasted.
Fan Yixiu was dumbfounded upon seeing the young boy’s familiar tone with him. He found it weird but he couldn’t describe why.
“Eldest Senior Brother, sit down! Drink some water!” One of the women next to him handed a water bag to Fan Yixiu.
