Chapter 833 Being caught red-handed
Chapter 833 Being caught red-handed
She had been squatting here for at least half an hour, and the team was still coming out from the end of the road. She muttered, "What are they doing? Did they win the border? Why are they hiding their victory? Are they going to sneak south? To catch them off guard?"
After squatting for half the night, her feet became numb, so she came down from the tree and groped her way back in the dark.
At this time, I didn't dare to light the torch, and I looked forward with my eyes wide open.
In this situation, she vaguely saw a deer or a roe deer or something.
He was very brave. He rushed forward without hesitation, grabbed its hind legs, punched it on the head and knocked it unconscious. Then he carried it on his shoulder and brought it back to the village.
Today she came out when everyone in the farm was asleep, and the only people who knew she was out were Hu Zi, Er Pang and Lai Zi Tou.
When she returned to the village, she found that the light was on in the room where she lived!
The whole village was quiet, with no one outside.
She narrowed her eyes, without putting down the roe deer, and quietly walked to the window. Just as she was about to poke a hole in the window, she heard a voice from inside, "Come in!"
This sound?
Zhou Guo shuddered, his hands trembled, his neck shrank, and he went in obediently carrying the roe deer.
There were three lamps on in the room. Zhou Dacang sat at the top. There was no smile on his face and he looked at her without any emotion.
Hu Zi, Er Pang and Lai Zi were kneeling on the ground, and no one knew how long they had been kneeling!
When the three saw her come in, they gave her a stealthy look.
Zhou Guo chuckled and said, "Uncle, why are you back? When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
Zhou Dacang clenched his hands, looked at Zhou Guo's smiling face and held back his anger. If this happened in the camp, he would have been dragged away and beheaded!
Seeing that his face was as black as the bottom of a pot and there was a storm hidden in his eyes, Zhou Guo did not dare to say anything more. It was obvious that he had been caught red-handed.
Hu Zi and his men must have confessed because they couldn't bear it anymore. She didn't do anything. She just took a look from a distance. It was still pitch black. It was so dark that there was not even a crescent moon in the sky tonight. Who could spot her on the mountain?
Zhou Dacang saw her eyes rolling around, and didn't know what she was thinking.
Suddenly he became even more angry.
After looking at Hu Zi and the others, he still had some sense and shouted at them, "Get out!"
Several people shuddered and turned to look at Zhou Guo, who nodded.
Then they got up and left, closing the door.
Zhou Guo then remembered that he was carrying a roe deer on his shoulder. He put the roe deer on the ground, moved over and sat down, and said with a smile: "You're back just in time. I went hunting in the mountains after dinner and happened to kill this roe deer. Let's roast it and eat it. You must have not eaten it for a long time, right? I haven't eaten it for a long time either!"
Zhou Dacang said in a deep voice: "Are you a hunter?"
Dark eyes stared at her.
Zhou Guo could not bear it a bit, thinking that the military camp was indeed the best place to train people. His uncle used to be such a sunny person, but in just a few years, his aura was so strong that even big beasts would retreat away. Xiaohua would definitely be scared to tears when she saw him like this.
She looked at him and said honestly, "No,"
He spoke without blushing or breathing hard.
Zhou Dacang was so angry that he laughed, "Do you know how dangerous it is to do this? If someone finds out, will you still be alive? Do you think you can find out about military secrets? Why did the army choose to march south at this time? Don't you know that? You know there is danger but still rush forward. Are you tired of living?!"
Zhou Guo nodded as he spoke, not daring to say anything to disobey him. When he saw that he had finished speaking, he said, "I know it's dangerous, but I also checked the weather and knew there was no moon today. Besides, they were very far away, so how could they find me?"
The more she spoke, the more she saw his expression becoming more and more strange, so she immediately changed her words, "I know I was wrong, I just wanted to see if you were back. You said you hadn't written to your family for so long, and I was worried about you."
Zhou Dacang snorted coldly: "Want to see me? You are so far away, are you sure you can see me?"
Zhou Guo choked, "...Even if I can't see you, at least I know whether you are here or not. I also want to know if you are okay. Otherwise, why would I go all the way to the dark mountains in the middle of the night to suffer? It's very dangerous in the mountains. You can't see anything. You might run into wolves, tigers, leopards, and snakes."
Zhou Dacang poked her head and said, "How dare you be so bold to inquire about military secrets? If someone finds out, you will lose your life. Remember, there won't be a next time!!"
Zhou Guo heaved a sigh of relief and immediately held up three fingers, saying, "I promise, there won't be a next time!"
Zhou Dacang's expression looked better now.
Zhou Guo immediately climbed up the pole and said with a smile, "Uncle, how long can you stay this time? When will we eat the roe deer I hunted?"
Zhou Dacang glanced at her and said, "Just ask whatever you want to ask."
Zhou Guo's eyes lit up, and he whispered, "Why did you secretly go south this time? The border battle is over, and you are going to march into the Central Plains? When are you leaving? Are you going too? There are no more people left at the border?"
Zhou Dacang smiled and uttered a few words, "No comment."
Zhou Guo: “…”
My uncle has become a bad guy!
Zhou Da Cang looked at her pouting mouth and said, "Why are you asking so many questions? Even building a house at home will take a year or so. Okay, go to bed."
He stood up and kicked the fainted roe deer, "Pick this thing up and have a good meal tomorrow."
Finished talking and left.
That was an understatement.
Zhou Guo stayed where he was, thinking about what he had just said.
I don’t know what the situation is in the north, but a year or two?
She jumped up, which means the army will move south in a year or two?
But why is it a year or so?
She couldn't figure it out, shook her head, looked at the roe deer on the ground, and carried it out.
The tigers in the yard were still awake. When they saw her coming out, they all came over and asked, "Master, are you okay?"
"Boss, is this really your uncle? Was he secretly replaced? This is too scary. It was not like this in previous years."
Zhou Guo asked: "When did he come?"
Hu Zi said, "An hour before you came back, as soon as you entered the door, someone asked you where you had been. I couldn't tell them you hadn't been here, and they definitely wouldn't believe me. I stammered and couldn't say anything, but somehow they knew, and sat up, looking gloomy and not saying a word."
Er Pang said: "The expression on his face was as if he wanted to eat someone. We couldn't stand it. We just knelt on the ground and waited for you to come back."
Zhou Guo was puzzled, "How did he know I was here?"
Hu Zi and the others shook their heads, "I don't know."
Zhou Guo muttered, "It's amazing."
He handed the roe deer in his hand to them and said, "Go and clean it up. We will roast the roe deer meat tomorrow."
After saying that, he quickly washed up and went to bed. He had been squatting on the top of the mountain for half the night and was already sleepy.
