"You're so fierce! They are bears and tigers, and the beautiful woman who is surrounded doesn't even look like she's asking for help."
The gruff male voice still sounded a little worried, as if he wanted to stop the two people who were a little reckless.
"What? There's a beauty? What are you wasting time on? Hurry up."
As a result, when the two heard this, they stopped being cautious and rushed out quickly.
I have to admit that young people nowadays are reckless.
Du Ruo had actually discovered the three young men a long time ago, so when he approached them just now, he subconsciously guided them a little so that he and Xiang Yuanyuan did not appear in the other party's field of vision at the first time, thinking that the other party would be scared away when they saw the black bear and the tiger.
This would save a lot of trouble, and as a result... these three young guys just ran over with wooden sticks, hooks and cameras.
The three of them parted the branches and got a clear view of the situation.
I saw a tiger half-lying lazily, and next to it was a big black bear. The big black bear was holding a bamboo basket in its mouth, and there were some wild vegetables in the basket.
A beautiful woman stood next to the tiger, holding the tiger's head with one hand and holding wild vegetables with the other hand to put into the black bear's bamboo basket.
Seeing the three people appear, the one man and two beasts all stared at them. Even the black bear that was stealing wild vegetables stared at them blankly.
"........."
The three of them stood there in a daze, looking at this combination of beauty and the beast, holding their sticks, not even knowing whether to take action or not.
"Oh, little bear, you're stealing wild vegetables again."
Xiang Yuanyuan wanted to put the wild vegetables into the basket first, but when she saw half of the wild vegetable leaves sticking out of the black bear's mouth, she raised her hand and patted the black bear on the head.
"..."
The three young men became even more silent after seeing this scene. For a moment, they didn’t know whether to help the beauty or the black bear. Why did it feel like the black bear was the victim?
"Ahem, you three are from the village, right? We live in a wooden house on the edge of the village. We came out this time to pick some wild vegetables and take a stroll."
At this time, Du Ruo on the side coughed lightly, attracting the attention of the three people.
"Eh? Is there anyone else here?"
The three of them only then noticed Du Ruo standing aside, and one of them said it subconsciously. It was not that Du Ruo was hiding, but the combination of beauty and the beast was too shocking, attracting all their attention, and Du Ruo standing aside was naturally ignored by them.
"..."
But his words made Du Ruo silent. To be honest, he felt that he could no longer keep up with the thinking of young people. Sometimes he really felt helpless.
"Brother, is this what you raised?"
The one holding the camera and taking pictures no longer looked at the camera, but took the initiative to ask Du Ruo.
"I can't say they are kept, they just like to stick to me."
Du Ruo smiled and touched the tiger's head.
At this moment, the tiger opened its mouth wide, licked Du Ruo's hand with its tongue, and then tried to bite Du Ruo's palm with its teeth. This was a game that Du Ruo and the tiger often played.
"Eh!!"
When the three young men saw this scene, they couldn't help but cry out softly. They were frightened. As children living near the mountains, they knew better than anyone how terrible tigers were because they had been exposed to them since childhood.
"Bang! Haha, it's okay, it's just a little naughty, it's not like other people."
Du Ruo moved very quickly and hit the tiger on the head with a slap, then wiped the saliva on his hand on the tiger's head.
The three of them listened to the crisp sound of the tiger's slap and swallowed their saliva in unison. This is a tiger, and they just hit it like that?
"Hush~ Wait, you are the... that boss? Oh, yes, that's Boss Du, so you are the tavern's proprietress."
At this time, the shortest young man among the three first pointed at Du Ruo and thought for a while, then took out his mobile phone and flipped through it, and finally remembered who Du Ruo was.
"Oh my god, it's true, woc~ idol, I always liked your martial arts videos."
The tallest young man among the three also reacted.
“I prefer the boss lady’s videos…”
The fatter photographer, the young man with the rougher voice, was muttering to himself.
After all, these three people are young people, and they have returned to the village to engage in self-media. They are very familiar with the Internet. As soon as they heard it, everyone reacted and immediately remembered who Du Ruo was.
Suddenly the three of them became excited, except for the fat photographer who couldn't help but occasionally turn the camera to look at Xiang Yuanyuan beside him.
“Are you broadcasting live or filming a video?”
Seeing that he was recognized, Du Ruo neither denied nor admitted it.
"Short video, short video, Boss Du, when we upload the video, can we put you on it?"
At this time, the tall and smartest young man's eyes immediately lit up, and he asked Du Ruo tentatively.
"Oh, yes, yes, Boss Du, if you don't want to show your face, I can blur it out and just shoot videos of tigers and black bears."
The short young man also reacted. This was a good opportunity to gain traffic. Whether it was Du Ruo who posted the video or Lao Hu who posted the video, it would definitely increase their traffic as they had just started making short videos.
This is equivalent to an opportunity to achieve success overnight, at least it can help the three of them avoid many detours.
"It's fine to upload the video, there's no need to censor it, but please wait a few days before uploading the video."
Du Ruo thought about it and did not refuse, but also made a small request.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, this video will be released in three days, and it will not be shortened by a single second."
The three of them nodded repeatedly. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Since Du Ruo was so generous in fulfilling their wish, they would naturally listen to him.
"Okay then. You can tag my wife's account when the time comes, otherwise it will be blocked if you send it out. Okay, if everything is fine, we will continue to pick wild vegetables."
Du Ruo nodded, then glanced at Xiang Yuanyuan.
"Tiger Vanguard, let's go~~"
Xiang Yuanyuan immediately turned over and rode on the tiger's back.
The two men and two beasts walked forward and soon disappeared from the sight of the three people.
Looking at their disappearing backs, the three of them looked at each other, wondering if they were dreaming.
"Bah bang bang!!"
The three of them slapped each other in tacit understanding, then they realized they were not dreaming, and then they looked through the footage captured in the camera in ecstasy.
……
"What a shame, we have to leave."
Xiang Yuanyuan lowered her body, hugged the tiger's neck, touched the tiger's fur on its neck, with a look of reluctance on her face.
Just now when Du Ruo agreed to be exposed, Xiang Yuanyuan knew that Du Ruo was about to leave, and exposure meant trouble.
Today's netizens are very powerful. Once the video is exposed, many people will definitely come to find me. If I don't leave, I will definitely be in a lot of trouble.
“Let’s come and visit again when we have the chance. We’ve been away from home for long enough, it’s time to go back and take a look.
As for the exposure of the video, just think of it as a little gift to this small mountain village. It would be nice to bring them some popularity and income after bothering them for so long."
Du Ruo smiled and said, it is really a comfortable thing to have a wife who understands one's thoughts like this. There is no need to say it, the other party can understand what one means, and also understand and support.
"Well, what about them?"
Xiang Yuanyuan nodded, then touched the black bear beside him.
"When we get back, you collect the things and I'll send them back to the forest. I'll leave when I come back. I won't take the things in the cabin with me. Just let Uncle Xiong take care of them."
"Okay~ Then I'll take a few more photos now. You two should live well in the forest. Then we'll bring the baby over to play with you."
……
The two made their decision quickly and acted very quickly.
The decision was made in the forest in the morning, and by noon, the two had already arrived at the center of HH city. They could be said to be leaving on time.
As for the tiger and the black bear, Du Ruo threw the two animals into the depths of the forest and left without caring about their reactions.
Now that I have made the decision, I will not hesitate.
At night, the two walked out of the airport.
But this time Du Ruo didn't ask anyone to pick them up. The two of them took a taxi and went home directly.
"Ah~~ It's still comfortable at home~~"
Xiang Yuanyuan returned home, threw down the suitcase in her hand, took off her shoes, threw her body on the soft sofa, and then moaned in comfort.
"Go wash up first. I'll give you a massage later. You have a long flight and a long car ride today. A massage will make you feel more comfortable."
Du Ruo packed up his things and found that the house was just as it was when he left. The flowers and plants were still alive and well, and even the air in the room was still fresh.
It seems that Yang Chenguang came over to check and help with ventilation.
"Hubby~ carry me to wash up~"
Xiang Yuanyuan was lying on the sofa, with her hands stretched out but unwilling to get up, shouting in a somewhat coquettish manner.
The two of them stayed in the cabin for more than half a month, and when they suddenly came back, they were not quite used to it.
Even Xiang Yuanyuan was almost moved to tears when she took a comfortable hot bath in the bathroom.
This is the difference between two kinds of life, one is the freedom of isolation from the world, the other is the touching life of modern civilized society.
After Xiang Yuanyuan took a shower, she lay on the bed and was massaged by Du Ruo for a few times. Then she lay on the soft bed and fell asleep.
She had indeed lived a very comfortable life with Du Ruo for the past half month, although life was inevitably inconvenient. In addition, the hard bed and the habit of getting up in the middle of the night to check on Du Ruo also meant that she did not get enough sleep.
Now I suddenly relaxed and immediately fell into a deeper sleep.
Du Ruo just sat at the head of the bed, looking at Xiang Yuanyuan who was sleeping. Instead of meditating or practicing, he went to the balcony. Tang Jian came up from the first floor and floated in front of Du Ruo.
Du Ruo had an idea, and locked the courtyard door and the main door downstairs. Then he stepped on Tang Jian, soared into the sky, and disappeared on the balcony on the second floor.
When he appeared again, Du Ruo appeared in the deep mountains of Huangshan and stopped at a stone wall halfway up the mountain.
"boom!!!"
Du Ruo walked down from Tang Jian, faced the stone wall, and punched out without any warning.
Du Ruo had no protection against this punch. He removed the protective Qi in his body and didn't even tense his body. He smashed the stone wall with his bare fist.
But the power of this punch was still unabated, and the stone wall was shattered. Then Du Ruo did not stop, and punched the stone wall again and again.
The loud noise caused the surrounding small animals to flee.
Du Ruo hit harder and harder, and he was no longer limited to his fists, he used his head, shoulders, back, elbows, legs, knees and feet, he hit the stone wall with every part of his body.
As Du Ruo struck, a stone cave more than one person tall and nearly two meters deep was created on the stone wall.
At the end of the fight, Du Ruo was still not satisfied. He stood in place, using the power of his mind to control all the rubble that had just been scattered, making it rotate around his body at high speed.
"Bang! Bang! Puff puff puff!!"
The high-speed rotating gravel broke away from the vortex and hit Du Ruo's body.
One, two... countless pieces of gravel hit various parts of Du Ruo's body.
The stone was sharp and angular at first, but slowly became rounded as it was hit. Then, after multiple collisions, the stone broke into gravel and returned to the stone vortex.
The numerous stones, like a crusher, kept hitting various parts of Du Ruo's body.
Until all the stones were crushed into powder and could no longer cause harm to Du Ruo, and Du Ruo was no longer able to control so much stone powder, the vortex that had formed like a dragon was stopped.
Tang Jian floated up again beside him, and Du Ruo walked out of the stone powder naked. His body was as clean as before, except for his clothes which had completely disappeared. The stone vortex that was like a crusher just now did not leave any trace for Du Ruo.
As Du Ruo stepped on Tang Jian, the stone powder on the ground seemed to have life and combined with the red mist that permeated around Du Ruo, forming a new set of clothes that covered Du Ruo's body.
Then Du Ruo soared into the sky, and in less than a minute, he landed silently on the balcony on the second floor of the new house.
The little girl Yuanyuan was snoring on the bed, sleeping as soundly as a kitten.
Although his body was already spotless, Du Ruo still washed up out of habit.
As the faucet was turned on, the clothes made of stone powder on Du Ruo's body seemed to have a spirit and drilled into the sewer, and were washed away with the water.
After washing up, Du Ruo put on her clothes again and lay down on the bed with Xiang Yuanyuan in her arms. After Du Ruo lay down on the bed, Xiang Yuanyuan, who was in a dream, wrapped herself around Du Ruo tightly like an octopus.
Xiang Yuanyuan slept particularly soundly tonight and didn't even wake up during the entire night.
And Du Ruo also felt the long-lost comfort.
The stones hit the body under the acceleration of the vortex. Although the force was not top-notch, it was definitely dense enough to hit the whole body. Du Ruo originally had high hopes for this, but judging from the final effect just now, it can only relieve the itching temporarily and cannot help the body transform.
The next morning, Xiang Yuanyuan was lying comfortably on a balcony chair basking in the morning sun, peeling the dried fruits she had brought back from Lesser Khingan Mountains. If she didn't eat the fruits after peeling them, she would put them on a plate beside her.
Du Ruo was holding a long sword in the empty space in front, dancing with it for Xiang Yuanyuan to see.
"I said you guys are having a great time, but you didn't even tell me you came back."
At this time, outside the gate, Yang Chenguang was holding a bag of fertilizer in one hand and eating a bun in the other. When he saw the two people on the balcony, he said something jealously.
"I just got back at the latest. I didn't call you because you were on the live broadcast yesterday. Come up and have some tea. We also brought some local specialties for you."
Du Ruo smiled, sheathed the sword, and invited Yang Chenguang to go upstairs.
These days, he really relied on the other party. There were a lot of valuable things in Du Ruo's new house. Apart from his parents, he could only feel at ease when Yang Chenguang came over. Judging from the situation at home, it was obvious that the other party cared a lot.
"You have a conscience. These are fertilizers for the flowers. There are a few trees on the third floor that need some. You can just go and spread some later."
Yang Chenguang went upstairs, put the fertilizer in his hand in the corner, then sat down and started chatting and drinking tea with Du Ruo.
"You guys chat, I'm going to spread fertilizer on the flowers and prune the branches."
Seeing this, Xiang Yuanyuan pushed the peeled dried fruits in front of Du Ruo, and then went upstairs with fertilizer and scissors.
"When it comes to life, I still have to be like you."
Yang Chenguang glanced at the peeled dried fruits in front of Du Ruo and spoke with some jealousy, his tone sour, not to mention how envious he was.
Thinking about it now, it seems that Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan got together right under his nose, and everything seemed to be just yesterday. He did not expect that in such a short period of time, the two of them had become a loving couple.
He was not jealous. Since Du Ruo had such strength, it was normal for him to be favored by beautiful women, but there would always be envy.
The two chatted like this, and Yang Chenguang talked about the changes in the village during this period of time.
In general, things are getting better and better, and he also said that someone came to the rented yard to look for Du Ruo during this period.
Yang Chenguang didn't say much and sent the person away. Nowadays, if you can't find someone and don't have the contact information of Du Ruo or Xiang Yuanyuan, you guess he is not an important person, so you don't pay much attention to him.
He even told the pub and B&B not to reveal Du Ruo's contact information to anyone.
After chatting for a while, Yang Chenguang took a bag of dried fruits and some sweet potato flour and went home.
The dried fruits were contributed by the numerous squirrels in the forest, and the sweet potato flour was authentic Northeastern sweet potato flour made by some villagers in the village.
When Du Ruo said goodbye to Uncle Xiong, Uncle Xiong gave Du Ruo a lot of sweet potato flour. Uncle Xiong also patted his chest and guaranteed that the sweet potato flour definitely contained sweet potato flour and was not adulterated.
So Du Ruo brought these back as specialties. After all, this time is no longer the same as it was more than 20 years ago, and it is quite difficult to taste authentic sweet potato noodles.
"DiDi!!"
Not long after Yang Chenguang left, a car drove to the yard of the new house.
Hearing the car sound, Du Ruo hurried downstairs, and even Xiang Yuanyuan, who was fiddling with flowers and plants on the third-floor balcony, hurried downstairs.
"Mom and Dad, you're back, why don't you play for a while longer?"
When Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan came downstairs, their parents had just got out of the car.
And from the luggage piled in the car, it can be seen that the two of them probably didn't even go home after returning, but came directly to the new house.
"Mom and Dad, please come in and sit down. Have you eaten yet? I'll go get you something to eat."
Xiang Yuanyuan hurriedly led her mother, who had just gotten out of the car, into the house.
"We ate before returning. We had breakfast at the hotel around 5am and drove back. Yuanyuan, why do you look thinner?"
As my mother walked into the house, she held Xiang Yuanyuan's hand and spoke.
"No way. I weighed myself today and I've gained three pounds. Mom and Dad, you guys can have lunch here at noon and then go back to rest."
Xiang Yuanyuan replied to her mother with a smile.
"Let your mother sit here for a while. I'll go back and put the things away, ventilate the house, and then come up to eat."
Dad sat in the driver's seat and didn't get out of the car. He opened the window, said something to Du Ruo, and drove home.
It was not surprising for Du Ruo's parents to come back.
This time they went out to play for more than a month. Although it was nice to travel while driving, it was tiring after a long time and they felt a little homesick, especially when they thought about the vegetable garden at home where there were no vegetables grown. They were a little worried that Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan would have no fresh vegetables to eat.
The more they thought about it, the less they wanted to play, so they just went back home.
In the living room, my mother excitedly shared the gifts she bought with Xiang Yuanyuan.
After a while, my dad drove over.
"Hubby, you talk to my parents, I'll go prepare dinner."
Xiang Yuanyuan looked at the time and went to the kitchen.
This time Xiang Yuanyuan brought back a lot of local specialties, so she can make some Northeastern dishes for her parents to taste.
"Dad, how was it? You must have had a lot of fun driving for such a long time this time."
Du Ruo poured a cup of tea for his father and made a joke at the same time.
"Well, this car is comfortable to drive."
As soon as my dad talked about the car, a smile appeared on his face. At the same time, he subconsciously touched his pocket, took out a cigarette, and wanted to light it.
When Du Ruo saw his father taking out the cigarette, he wanted to persuade him, but he didn't know how to open his mouth. He just stared at his father with a frown.
My father has been smoking all his life. He has been picking up other people's cigarette butts to smoke since he was 16 or 17 years old. Now he is nearly 60 years old and he smokes two packs of cigarettes a day without fail. It can be said that he has no problem not eating or drinking, but if he doesn't smoke, he feels like he is scratched by a cat.
Even her sister Du Na couldn't persuade her.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you want one too?"
Dad felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Du Ruo. He twisted his hips a little, took out a cigarette from the box and handed it to Du Ruo without lighting it.
"Yuanyuan is pregnant and has been pregnant for about a month."
Du Ruo didn't take the cigarette his father handed over, but said something slowly.
"What?"
Dad didn't react for a moment and opened his mouth to reply.
"What else do you mean?"
As soon as my dad finished speaking, my mom reached out, snatched the cigarette from my dad's mouth, crumpled it up and threw it into the trash can.
"Your son said you are going to be a grandfather, and you are still smoking and harming your future grandchildren. Go squat outside and smoke. I'm going to cook and let my wife take a rest."
Mom said something to Dad, then walked to the kitchen with a smile, because she couldn't let her daughter-in-law get tired.
"Okay, then I'll go outside and smoke before coming back in."
Dad originally wanted to not smoke, but after putting the cigarette back into his pocket, he couldn't help it and walked out.
In the end, my mother and Xiang Yuanyuan finished it together at noon.
After dinner, Xiang Yuanyuan handed the inspection list to her parents, and then her mother looked at the list with a silly look on her face, not understanding it.
It was not until my father urged me to clean up the house that my mother left reluctantly.
After Du Ruo saw his parents off, he did not go into the house immediately, but stood outside the yard.
Not long after, the fox walked over from a distance and handed a brown paper bag to Du Ruo.
"This is the information of the person who came to see you after you left. This person is involved in a lot of things, so I brought his information to you."
After the fox finished speaking, she stood there, indicating that she was only there to convey information to Du Ruo, not to deliver a mission or anything like that.
After Du Ruo took it, he opened the paper bag directly and started reading it. He was also very curious about who was looking for him.
The profile is of an ordinary man, and everything on his resume is pretty ordinary.
But one piece of information caught Du Ruo's interest: the man had financial dealings with an overseas organization.
