Xiao Mama cooked porridge and steamed a pot of sweet potatoes, which we ate with relish accompanied by pickled vegetables. After lunch, Xiao Papa solemnly told us: "You guys don't go far today, just take a look around the nearby mountains to see if there are any wild **. As for yesterday's matter, don't worry about it, I'll keep that thing safe for you first, and give it back to you when you leave." We weakly agreed.

  Then, Xiao Yang took out the tool for catching wild chickens. Haha, isn't this the same net we used to catch fish yesterday? Are you going to use it to scoop up wild chickens too? Xiao Yang nodded: "Actually, there's a shotgun at home, but Dad doesn't allow us to use it, so we'll just have to make do with this. Anyway, it's all about having fun! I've tried it before, and the wild chickens caught this way are still alive, making the meat taste fresher. Let's just settle for this!"

  A group of people left Xiao Yang's house and walked into the mountain forest. Fortunately, it was a sunny day, and the warm sunlight shone down on them. The winter forest had its own desolate beauty, with tall trees standing silently, their leaves long since withered and dry, crunching softly underfoot, adding a touch of vitality to the quiet forest.

  "Where are the wild chickens? It's so quiet, I haven't even seen a shadow!" Bao'er looked around disappointedly. "Of course there aren't any here, they would have been caught long ago since it's so close to the village, what's left for you to catch?" Pang Yu sneered. "Oh!" Bao'er suddenly realized and immediately became excited, "Then let's go further away!"

  I exchanged a smile with Lu Qi, we wanted to go to a distant place, and we also wanted to explore. Although we agreed with Xiao's father on the surface, our hearts were always thinking about going to see that ancient cave. I pulled Xiao Yang aside and asked him quietly: "Why don't we go there? Don't you want to take a look? There are many of us, it doesn't matter, besides, all three of us have kung fu skills, at that time one person can handle one, isn't that okay?"

  Lu Qi nodded repeatedly beside me: "Exactly, with our skills, what are we afraid of? Let's play something exciting!" Xiao Yang heard our conversation and a knowing smile appeared on his face: "Actually, I wanted to say let's go earlier, but Xiaoyu, you said no, didn't you? Why the change of heart now?" I chuckled: "Hey, if I hadn't said that, your parents would have known last night, right? As they say, walls have ears, it's better to be safe than sorry." Xiao Yang shook his head helplessly: "You're always so clever."

  I clapped my hands and said loudly, "Dear friends, today we are fortunate to have come to the historic Mount Da Wang. Let's start our adventure journey now! Please invite our guide to lead the way." Everyone cheered loudly. "Great!" Fat Fish was particularly excited, while Qiao Hui was a bit worried, but seeing everyone so happy, she had no choice but to agree. Xiao Yang briefly told us about the itinerary: first climb Mount Da Wang, then explore the cave, because the cave is on the other side of the mountain and we have to climb to the top to get there.

  As we spoke, we had already gone further and further away from the village, and the road up the mountain was getting harder and harder to walk. Looking around, the mountains surrounded us, and Xiao Yang's home was just a small dot in the valley. This Da Wang Mountain is really living up to its reputation! It's big, it's high, it's majestic!

  "There is actually only the largest one called Da Wang Shan, and the smaller one next to it is called Xiao Wang Shan." Xiao Yang said as he walked. "Ha, there's also Xiao Wang Shan, how interesting!" I thought again, "It must have been a long, long time ago, two sworn brothers lived here, they were dissatisfied with the exploitation of the government, so they came here and gathered troops to become mountain bandits, while the younger brother naturally became Xiao Wang. They lived on their respective mountains, living a life free from worldly disputes."

  "Yun'er, you're daydreaming again." Qiao Hui looked at me speechlessly. "But I think what you said is quite possible!" Bao'er was also a girl who loved to fantasize, "Later, they met the girls they liked at the foot of the mountain and brought them back to be their mountain bandit wives."

  "Ha, Bao'er, you're not having romantic thoughts, are you?" I chuckled lightly. "However, I agree with what you said!" "What's wrong? You're teasing me!" Bao'er's face turned red, but her eyes involuntarily drifted towards Xiao Yang. "Is my big brother treating you well, Little Ruo Ruo?"

  This girl, turned around and hit me. I whispered in her ear: "I saw the orange sunset on the horizon, the gray industry smoke, the misty mountains, the green trees, the winding river, the setting sun, the afterglow, the stars, the moon, the night sky."

  "What's wrong? This guy is getting more and more outrageous, I laughed and suddenly attacked, stretching out my hand to scratch her itchy spot. "Haha... don't dare anymore, little sister-in-law." She was most afraid of being tickled, and quickly begged for mercy. My eyes glared: "Still talking nonsense." "Yes yes yes, won't dare anymore. Good Ruo Yun!" Seeing their strange gazes, Bao'er hastily changed her words.

  "Haha, we're just joking around! You guys didn't hear anything!" I laughed awkwardly, feeling extremely embarrassed. Just now, Bao'er was so loud, they must have all heard it, and look at Lu Qi's face turning red in a weird way. This is really humiliating, and to make matters worse, that annoying fatty also chimed in: "What were you guys talking about? Why did she call you 'sister-in-law'?"

  "It's nothing, just kidding. You really believed it!" I was so annoyed. It's like which pot doesn't open and mentions which pot, this fat fish, he has no eyesight at all, didn't you see that your face is black? Xiao Yang's face was smelly and he pulled the fat fish over: "You're not tired, right! Come on, take the thing!" He handed the net to the fat fish. Looking at the fat fish's confused expression, I lowered my head and smiled lightly. Lu Qi, on the other hand, looked very happy, walking alongside the fat fish and cheering him on. Hey, this guy, he's actually happy.

  It's probably because no one has walked here for a long time, the higher we climb to the top of the mountain, the more difficult it becomes. There is no road leading to the top of the mountain, we just pick up the slightly easier places to walk, everywhere is withered branches and leaves, as well as thorny thickets that can be seen everywhere, although they are withered, but also very prickly, if you're not careful, you'll get scratched by the thorns. Fortunately, everyone wore a lot of clothes, so no one got hurt, only the clothes on their bodies were damaged.

  We finally reached the top of Mount Da Wang, and everyone let out a sigh of relief. Standing at the summit, we gazed far into the distance, and indeed it was the highest mountain around - all the other mountains in the distance were below us, giving us a sense of superiority. "I can climb to the top of the highest peak, and look down on all the other mountains as small." I recited Du Fu's poem loudly. "I thought of one too," Lu Qi said, glancing at me, and reciting, "In the empty mountain, no one is seen, but the sound of human voices is heard." "Ah, not bad!" I nodded in approval, "But now it should be 'in the empty mountain, people are seen, and the sound of human voices is heard'!" The others who were resting at the side, listening to our recitation, also started thinking. "I've got one - the peaks rise high into the sky, not a single inch can be added, the withered pines hang upside down on the precipice." Xiao Yang said, pointing to a nearby pine tree. We looked over: "Hmm, pretty good. Although it's not a precipice, being able to think of Li Bai's poem is impressive!" "Hey, are you guys here to play or compete in reciting poems? I won't be able to keep up!" Bao Er pouted, looking unhappy. "Yeah, me neither, don't be so sour." Hua Yu looked like he was getting a headache. We exchanged a smile and sat down.
