After a few days, Lu Xiaoxian and Manda get along well. She knows where Manda lives. Sometimes she will take bananas, rice and vegetables to visit, cook with them and play with Manda's little daughter.

Manda gradually took her as a friend and took good care of her. On that day, she asked Lu Xiaoxian to go with her to another place to change the label. There was a big lake. If you were lucky, you could catch fish or pick some fresh fruits for food.

Lu Xiaoxian was naturally happy to hear that. It was better to go to another place to have a look than to be trapped here. Maybe he could find a chance to escape.

Manda's little daughter went with her. She didn't even have shoes. She ran happily in the forest with a pair of bare feet. Lu Xiaoxian looked at her as if she had seen her own childhood. But she did not dare to run in the mountains with joy in the daytime. If she was seen by other children, she would bully her. At night, she could run all the way home from her grandmother's grave.

The place that Manda took her to is quite far away. Lu Xiaoxian silently remembers the extremely complicated forked path along the way. It took almost two hours to get to the destination. It was relatively open and sunny. Besides a small rubber forest, there were some fruit trees, most of which were mango and banana trees.

Lu Xiaoxian saw the big lake that Manda said. It was really big. The lake was sparkling, like a layer of broken gold.

Manda put delicious rice in a bamboo basket. Long branches were tied to the basket. One end was fixed on the bank, and the other end of the bamboo Lou was stretched into the lake.

Lu Xiaoxian saw this fishing method for the first time. It was very fresh. He asked Manda, "is this OK?"

Manda nodded with a smile: "come back to see when you're done. If you're lucky, you're not."

She gave Lu Xiaoxian half of the label and asked her to stick it on the rubber tree. She took her little daughter to another forest to change the label.

When Manda left, Lu Xiaoxian took the label and went into the rubber forest. She was always conscientious and responsible. She covered the old one with the new label carefully, and each one was pasted properly. If you do more, you will be skilled. It doesn't take long for her to finish everything.

After finishing her work, she ran to the lake to see the bamboo basket, but there seemed to be no movement. So she walked around and looked around. At the other end of the lake, she saw a small bamboo shed with bamboo collapse in it, which was supposed to be used for the rest of passers-by. She went in and sat for a while, and the bamboo cave was a little hot. Although there was a breeze on the lake, the wind was also hot and could not make people feel comfortable.

Lu Xiaoxian then came out of the bamboo shed and walked to a small hillside. There were some small rubber trees here, which were well planned. She was shuttling through these small rubber trees. Suddenly, she found a man squatting under the tree, with his back to her and a hat on his head. It was difficult to tell whether it was a man or a woman?

Lu Xiaoxian was very happy to meet someone else in such a remote place. He strode to the front, probably to hear the sound. The man turned around, but he was an old man. He had a pair of kind eyes and a white beard. When he saw Lu Xiaoxian, he laughed, but he didn't stand up and asked in Chinese, "what are you doing here?"

Lu Xiaoxian said, "I work in the woods below, and when I'm done, I'll come up and walk. What are you doing, grandfather

A grandfather let the old man stupefied, he put the soil under the tree into the small bottle, and then stood up: "I'm looking for good cultivation soil."

"Is it for rubber trees?"

"Yes, to grow rubber trees."

"I guess you're an old expert on rubber trees?"

"You're right. I've been studying rubber trees for decades." The old man asked her with a smile, "are you new here?"

"I've only been here a few days, and you're the third person I've ever met."

The old man nodded, "are you the forest keeper?"

"Grandfather, you can guess it right. I am the keeper of the woods," Lu Xiaoxian was very happy to meet a person who could speak Chinese and was willing to chat with her. "Do you live here, too? Do you live alone, too? Is your family in the rubber garden, too? It's too big in here. I always get lost. I don't know how to get out when I come in. Fortunately, Manda takes me with me. Her daughter is very cute and her son works in a food processing factory... "

The old man listened to her with a smile, but Yu Guang looked her up and down.

Lu Xiaoxian said, but suddenly reached out and pulled the old man behind him. He flew up and kicked something off the ground. Then pick up a dead branch and stop it in front.

The old man had already seen clearly that there was a snake on the ground. His thumb was thick, his head was flat, and his tongue was sticking out. He was looking at them.

Lu Xiaoxian whispered to the old man, "grandfather, I'll stop you. Go quickly."

The old man was surprised: "aren't you afraid?"

"No, there are snakes where I lived when I was a child. If I don't touch them carefully, I will drive them away with a stick."

The snake kept shaking its head, as if to find the right opportunity to attack.

Lu Xiaoxian urged the old man in a low voice: "grandfather, go quickly. It looks very fierce. It will jump up and bite people." She was a little nervous. She took the branch and waved it to the snake, trying to drive it away. The snake dodged from side to side, but did not retreat. Instead, she saw the opportunity to swim forward.Lu Xiaoxian rushed to protect the old man, but heard the old man say: "this is a cobra. It's very powerful. One bite is enough to kill people. Aren't you afraid?"

Lu Xiaoxian was so angry that he exclaimed, "why don't you run away when you know it's so fierce? Run quickly. If you run away, you'll be counted as one. "

"What do you do?"

"You're an old man. You're slow, but I'm fast. So you run first. Hurry up. I'll break up. Hurry up."

The old man hesitated for a moment and ran down the hillside. When the snake saw someone running, it became more vicious. He shook his head and attacked Lu Xiaoxian. Lu Xiaoxian stopped him with a branch and called out, "run away, run farther!"

The snake suddenly jumped up and rushed straight to Lu Xiaoxian. Lu Xiaoxian was not in a mess. He waved a branch to meet him. He picked up the snake and threw it away two meters away. However, the snake was very powerful. Just after landing, he attacked Lu Xiaoxian fiercely. Lu Xiaoxian ran quickly. She was afraid that the old man did not run far away Although she ran fast, she obviously had more energy. After a while, Lu Xiaoxian was out of breath. She thought that for so long, the old man should run far away, so she rushed down the slope. She planned to get the snake into the lake.

As soon as she ran down the hill, she heard a sound behind her. She looked back and saw that it was the old man. He actually caught the snake. The silver light flashed and the snake's head fell to the ground. Lu Xiaoxian stopped. The whole people were shocked. She couldn't believe: "grandfather, can you catch a snake?"

"How can you walk in the woods without these two hands?" The old man laughed and took out a plastic bag from his bag and put the snake in it and handed it to her: "take it back and cook the soup. It tastes good."

"It's better for grandfather to keep it by himself." If we have the big lake soup, we can use it in the evening

The old man insisted on giving her: "you are the bravest girl I have ever seen. This is a reward. Take it."

Lu Xiaoxian did not like to brush his kindness, so he had to take it over: "thank you, grandfather."

"What's your name?" The old man asked her.

"My name is Lu Xiaoxian."

The old man nodded with a smile: "well, good name, I remember it. I'll go to the front and hope to see you again

Lu Xiaoxian took the snake and waved and said, "goodbye, Grandpa."

The old man walked quickly and disappeared in the woods in a flash. Lu Xiaoxian was a little disappointed. After a few days, she finally met someone who could talk freely. Unfortunately, the time together was too short. Otherwise, she really wanted to ask him how to get out of the woods?

When she went to the lake again, she was surprised to find that there were three small fish in the bamboo basket. She was afraid that the fish would escape back into the water. She quickly untied the bamboo basket and was busy living. Manda came back with the little girl and saw her in the fish basket and asked, "is there any fish?"

"There are three." "Such a big one," Lu Xiaoxian said

The little girl jumped and jumped with joy: "Oh, there are fish to eat in the evening! There are fish to eat in the evening

Lu Xiaoxian took the snake to Manda and said, "not only are there fish, but also this one. It's good to cook soup!"

It seems that Manda also knows that this is delicious, and her eyes are wide open. She is very surprised: "did you catch it?"

Lu Xiaoxian then told Manda in detail what had happened just now, and asked her if she knew who the old man was?

Manda thought for a moment and said that there were indeed some technicians in the rubber plantation who were engaged in research, both old and young. I don't know which one she met?

In the evening, three people have dinner together in Manda's hut. There are fish and snakes, and some fresh fruits are picked along the way. This is the most abundant dinner since Lu Xiaoxian entered the rubber garden.

After dinner, Lu Xiaoxian accompanied the little girl to play for a while, then left to go back. She walked several times, already quite familiar with it, and did not need lighting. By the light moonlight in the woods, she walked leisurely to her own house.

Compared with the daytime, she prefers to walk out at night. There is a breeze in the woods, which gently pours on her face, making her pores stretch out and feel very comfortable.

When she got to the hut, she suddenly stopped and flashed behind a tree. There was a light in her room? The figure of a man is printed in the glass window. He is a tall man!

Lu Xiaoxian's heart was ecstatic. Blue kaize finally found her. He came to save her!

She hurried to the hut, her feet driving the dead branches on the ground, making a sound of hearing. The man in the room, like a quick leopard, rushed out of the room, but Lu Xiaoxian threw herself on the spot and rolled towards a slope. At the moment of the man's action, she recognized that it was not LAN kaize, but a strange man full of danger!
