Chapter 198: Extra Meal
Chapter 198: Extra Meal
"It's so small, not even enough to fill the gaps between our teeth. Let it grow a little longer in the mountains." This was the most common thing Huang Qi had heard. Afterwards, those who came into the mountains would throw some food they had to the dog. If they were lucky, they would even get some minced meat.
It was just a little bit, not enough for Huang Qi, he was so hungry.
It was getting closer to the area where people were active. That day, it squatted in the grass and recognized the villagers coming up the mountain from the halfway point. It watched them chewing meat and holding bones in their hands, waiting for them to drop the bones and eat them after they left.
There was also a fat girl in the group. She was as tall as an adult's waist. She carried a basket taller than her, which contained firewood and herbs. She was wearing ill-fitting clothes. Huang Qi could even see the holes in the clothes. The adults were dressed neatly. They bent over in the forest, picking herbs and firewood, and occasionally set traps to catch pheasants and rabbits.
Huang Qi huddled in the grass, watching the group of people. When they turned around and left, he was so hungry that he ran towards the bones dropped by the people. He ran so fast that he didn't even look at the road. His front legs were caught by the clamps, and he cried out in pain.
"Oh, a snack has arrived." The group of people turned around and saw it.
For extra food...
It was weak and had to come out of the forest to find food near people. Now that its leg was injured, it was even more difficult for it to survive in the wild. I'm afraid its final fate would be to become a meal for these people.
Thinking of this, the fur around Huang Qi's eyes became moist, and he was crying because of the pain in his front legs. Even though he lived such a humble life, he still didn't want to die.
It is so confused and doesn't know what the meaning of living is, but it just wants to live.
The clamp was a slightly serrated type, and soon Huang Qi's front legs started bleeding.
Perhaps it was because the fur around its eyes was wet, or perhaps it was because it was so thin that people felt sympathy for it, especially the little girl who walked up to it with a basket taller than her and squatted beside it. She pressed the button of the clip that was holding its front legs, and the clip released Huang Qi's front legs. She pretended to lift it up, but Huang Qi ran away quickly.
It heard the adults behind it scolding, "You clumsy girl! You took away all the snacks and drinks that were worth a lot of money. You'll definitely be beaten when you get home."
"Uncles, please don't tell my dad. I just wanted to see if I could catch it alive and bring it back to raise it to eat, but it ran away."
"Go back and tell your old man!"
"He insisted on letting this girl follow us into the mountains to chop firewood, and he was reluctant to let his son do this job..."
The sound gradually faded away.
Huang Qi didn't run very far, he was still thinking about those bones.
It wanted to wait until the group of people left before eating.
The little girl seemed to know it was nearby and waved at the bushes with her dirty little hands.
There was a look in those green eyes that Huang Qi was familiar with.
Huang Qi recognized her. She was the daughter of the knife-wielding man. She was not valued when she was young, and she was still not valued when she grew up.
But it is plump and it seems that it eats as much as her and better than its mother.
Huang Qi was still thinking about eating at this time, as he had never been full.
After waiting until no one could be seen, Huang Qi came out and ran towards the broken bones. This group of people ate really well. The chicken bones were lame, but they were delicious.
Now that its leg is injured, it will definitely be ridiculed by the Hui people and might even be thrown out by its own mother. So it might as well curl up here and rest.
