Chapter 101: Guan Chibei Picked Up a Wild Duck on the Mountain
Guan Chibei also did something. He left the Guan family and walked towards Dousu Mountain.
Yunwu Village was next to a continuous remote mountain range called Dousu Mountain Range. This mountain was named after one of the twenty-eight stars because, from a panoramic perspective, the entire mountain range stretched out. There were dozens of mountains arranged in the shape of stars.
Therefore, in the river and mountain maps of the Shang dynasty, the mountain range next to Yunwu Village was recorded as the Dousu Mountain Range. This name was given by the imperial family.
Actually, this was also a name given by the deities in the sky.
Because when looked down from the sky, one could see the shape of the entire mountain range.
The entire Dousu Mountain Range was deep and quiet. Ye Lulu, who had studied geography in the modern era, knew that an entire mountain range could have all sorts of climates, environments, and species because the situation was too complicated.
Guan Chibei went to the other side of Yunwu Village today. Because the environment in the deep mountains was dangerous, even the hunters in the village had not stepped foot in it.
After Guan Chibei climbed the entire mountain, he saw that it was a moist field of reeds. The reeds were tall and dense. There should be water ahead, but it was blocked by the reeds.
In this environment where almost no one could step foot in, the air was very fresh.
Guan Chibei took two steps forward and the yin energy on his body spread, filling the entire place.
In the thick reeds, there were some movements in a few places.
After Guan Chibei’s yin energy enveloped him, the movements gradually stopped and there was no sound.
Guan Chibei’s expression was calm as he walked forward with his long legs. He walked towards the few places with movements that he had remembered clearly and bent down to sweep away the lush reeds.
There were a few fat, large, and firm wild ducks lying on the ground!
However, those wild ducks had been suppressed by Guan Chibei’s yin energy. Their life force had decreased and they became listless. They lay in the reeds and could not move.
The wild ducks trembled in fear when they saw him.
Guan Chibei reached out his long hand and picked up a few fat wild ducks. Then, he went to another place that had some movements before and looked. There were wild ducks again!
As no one usually went near this patch of reeds, the wild ducks were also very densely packed. There were so many of them!
Guan Chibei did not bring all the wild ducks back. He only brought back ten of them.
Furthermore, among the reeds that were filled with wild ducks, there were many wild duck eggs. Each one of them was big and had shiny surfaces!
Guan Chibei brought back a raft of wild ducks and a few dozen wild duck eggs. When he went over the mountain, he caught a dozen wild hares and a few pheasants and brought them down the mountain.
The day of the triplets’ one-month celebration had arrived. On this day, the Guan family announced that they would hold a banquet for the entire village!
The entire Yunwu Village was in an uproar! All the villagers started to discuss the Guan family’s triplets turning one month old.
It was rare to give birth to triplets, and the Guan family was so poor that they did not have rice in their pots. The triplets were turning one month old, but the Guan family actually wanted to hold a banquet?!
They were even inviting everyone from the village!
Furthermore, the Guan family did not tell them a few days in advance. They only told them on the day of the triplets’ one-month celebration.
Ah, the Guan family had no choice. They went to the docks in the city every day to set up a stall and were very busy. Every time they went out, they spent the entire day outside. As such, they only had time to spread the word during the actual day itself.
Mother Rong ran to the village entrance and shouted for everyone to eat. She shouted all the way to the end of the village and invited the entire village.
In the village, it was that simple.
The villagers were shocked and even pounded their chests and stamped their feet. Those who had already cooked nearly slapped themselves. It was a waste of rice and grains! They didn’t know that the Guan family was holding a one-month celebration for their triplets today. They had eaten so much last night that they pounded their thighs and cried out in regret. This was such a loss. They didn’t leave an empty stomach. This was such a huge loss!
