Bang! A bullet was fired at a scorpion.
In a remote forest, where no one could find any trace of life, an old hunter was chasing after an injured deer. The old hunter was almost sixty years old, but he was hale and hearty. His eyes were full of vigor, and his bronze face was covered with wrinkles that looked like they had been carved by knives. He followed the blood of the injured leech all the way to the bottom of the mountain rock. In front of him was a vast expanse of waist-deep grass. The blood of the leech had disappeared. Based on his thirty years of hunting experience, he estimated that the injured deer had run for four to five miles and had lost so much blood that it had already hidden in the grass. However, searching in such a large area of grass was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack!
He hid behind a big tree and waited for the scorpion to appear. However, when the sun was high up in the sky, there was still no sign of the scorpion, but the old hunter's stomach was growling. He thought, what if the scorpion died in the grass? He didn't want to wait in vain, so he might as well go to the mountain and pick a few Lingzhi back.
He stood up happily, carried his hunting rifle on his back, walked through the grass, and climbed up the mountain. The mountain was steep, and some of the rocks were covered with moss. It was slippery when one stepped on them. Despite his rich experience in rock climbing, he was still cautious. After climbing for about an hour, he finally saw a Lingzhi in the grass on the top of the rock! His spirit was roused, and he climbed over with all his might. When he reached the front, he gently pushed away the weeds covering the Lingzhi's leaves. He was instantly stunned! This was a huge lingzhi! Its surface was smooth and complete, and its color was bright, like a small umbrella. This was a lingzhi that he had never seen before! He was so excited that he immediately took out his knife and carefully removed the soil around the Lingzhi.
Just as he was feeling pleased with himself, he suddenly saw a dazzling flash in the sky. A strong wind whistled past, blowing so hard that he could barely open his eyes and his body swayed. A huge, disc-like, silver-white disc brushed past the top of the mountain and flew into the horizon in the blink of an eye, disappearing without a trace. Its speed was unimaginable. He was shocked.
What was this monster? Could it be the legendary flying saucer? Before he could think clearly, he seemed to hear a baby crying. Strange, why would there be a baby on the mountain? Is it my imagination? He held his breath and listened. The voice came from the top of the rock. He searched the surroundings again, but there was no one there. He thought, could it be that some heartless parents abandoned their babies on the rocks?
The old hunter felt pity for him. He stopped digging and climbed to the top of the rock with all his might. Just as he reached the top of the rock, a black wolf ran over when it heard the baby's cry. It was almost in front of the baby and opened its fangs. At this critical moment, the old hunter roared and fired a shot at the black wolf. Black Wolf was shocked. He turned around and saw the old hunter running towards him alone. The old hunter did not have time to reload. He raised his gun to prevent the black wolf from approaching. The black wolf stopped and stared at the hunter. It moved left and right and suddenly crouched on the ground with its front paws. It bent its body and jumped towards the old hunter.
The old hunter raised his gun and stabbed the black wolf with the barrel, pressing it against the black wolf's stomach. The black wolf fell and rolled on the ground. It quickly pounced on the old hunter from behind. The old hunter turned around and swept the spear with his spear, but it missed. The black wolf bit the old hunter's shoulder. The old hunter pulled out his saber and stabbed at the black wolf. Blood flowed out of the black wolf's abdomen. The black wolf howled and jumped to the ground, fleeing in a panic. The old hunter turned to look at his shoulder. It was bloody and his bones were exposed. The old hunter took out a bag of powder and applied it on the baby. Then, he tore a piece of cloth from his body and wrapped it up. Then, he walked towards the baby.
When he arrived in front of the baby, he saw a naked baby wrapped in a silver cloth. The baby's fair skin, light blue eyes, and legs were kicking wildly. The old hunter held him in his arms, coaxing and rocking him. Soon, the baby stopped crying and stared at him with his big round eyes. The old hunter felt that the baby was not only very cute, but also very obedient. He was filled with joy. He did not care about the Lingzhi that was worth ten thousand yuan on the top of the rock. He carried the baby down the mountain.
When the old hunter was about to reach a dilapidated brick house, he shouted happily,""Old woman, come quickly!"
A thin old woman saw the man calling her so happily and thought that he had caught something good. She immediately came out to take a look. However, when she saw the man holding a strange naked baby in his arms, she was shocked."Old man, whose baby is this?”
The old hunter chuckled and said,"He's from the sky. He's a gift from God!"”
The old woman poked his forehead and said,""You damn old man, I think you have a fever!”
"I don't have a fever. I'm very awake. Let me tell you, I really picked it up on a rock.”
"It really was picked up. You can lie to a child.”
" Old woman, let me tell you, I encountered a very strange thing today." The old hunter told her everything that happened when he picked up the baby.
The old woman was simply listening to a fantasy story, but she had no choice but to believe him. She had known her husband for forty years and knew his temper. He never lied. They had no children after marriage. Now that they had a child in their old age, it was as if they had a baby. They could not stop smiling. She held the baby in her arms and examined him carefully. When she saw that the baby's right palm was red like a red sun, she thought it was a monster. She was so scared that her face turned pale and she almost dropped the baby to the ground. Fortunately, the old hunter was quick to react and reached out to hug the baby. The baby was frightened and started to cry loudly.
"You old woman, you don't even know how to hug people!" The old hunter said angrily.”
The old woman was still in shock and asked in a trembling voice,"He…Is he a human or a demon?”
"Of course it's a human!"
"Do humans have hands like that?"
"He fell from the sky.”
"Old man, I think you have a fever today! I'm confused from the fever."
"No, not at all!" the old hunter said seriously.”
The old woman was skeptical. When she looked at the baby again, she saw that the baby was smiling with tears in his eyes. It was a little cute. The old woman's fear slowly disappeared, and she carefully stroked the baby's head. The baby did not take the initiative to attack. The old woman was a little fond of it and carried the baby into the house.
The next morning, trouble came. The baby was crying out in hunger. However, the old hunter's family lived on the mountainside. There was no other family nearby. Where could they find a nanny who was still nursing? The old hunter had no choice but to go down the mountain to the town to buy milk powder.
The old hunter was familiar with the owner of a grocery store. Every time he bought something, he would go to him. The owner of the grocery store was kind and had a lot of goods, so business was good. Seeing that the old hunter wanted to buy milk powder, he asked in confusion,""Brother Zian, are you going to visit your relatives?”
"No," the old hunter said with a smile,"we'll eat at home."”
"Eat at home? Your family never buys milk powder."
"Yes, I haven't bought it before. However, things are different now."
"Oh, could it be that your sixty-year-old wife can still give birth?”
"Wives can't have children," the old hunter said proudly. However, I picked up a very cute child.”
The grocery store owner thought that it was common for people in the countryside to abandon baby girls, so it was not surprising to pick up a baby girl. He said in a certain tone,"It's a girl, right?"
"No, it's a boy."
The grocery store owner was shocked and said,""Although he was picked up, he can be considered to have a son at an old age. Congratulations! Brother Zian, you have to treat us!"
"Alright, alright. Let me buy you a drink."
The owner of the grocery store immediately opened a bottle of white wine and poured a glass for each of them. He also placed a plate of peanuts on the table and the two of them sat opposite each other and began to eat.
"Hey, where did you pick it up?" The grocery store owner suddenly asked.”
The old hunter used his drunken mood to tell him about how he had picked up the child.
The grocery store owner laughed and said,""Brother Zian, why is your alcohol tolerance so bad today? You haven't even drunk half a catty of wine and you're already drunk."
"I'm not drunk. I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, you can go to my house and see that child.”
"Haha, Brother Zian, when did you learn to brag?”
The old hunter was so angry that his face turned red. He stammered,"I'm serious. You don't know. That child is very special. There was also a red sun in his palm.”
"There's a red sun in your palm? You're talking about myths, right? The more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes.”
"We've been friends for many years. Don't you know me? When did I brag?"
Seeing that he had drunk, the grocery store owner was too lazy to argue with him."Alright, alright. You're telling the truth. I believe you.”
The old hunter grinned.""The child is waiting for milk powder. I should go.”After saying that, he took out a few crumpled notes from his underwear pocket and placed them on the table before staggering away.
"Take care, Brother Zian." The grocery store owner sent him out of the door, thinking,'What he said has a nose and eyes, could it be true?' It's a pity that my wife went back to her mother's house to drink today. I'll go and have a look tomorrow.
When Reporter Liu from the county newspaper office heard about this, he was very curious. He immediately asked all the way up from the foot of the mountain and found the old hunter's house. He witnessed the child with his own eyes and even took a photo on the top of the rock. After he came back, he wrote the exclusive news overnight and sent the manuscript to the newspaper office the next morning.
The editor-in-chief of the county newspaper was amazed when he read the manuscript. He thought that he had seen reports about UFO, but those UFO did not leave anything on Earth, so there was no way to verify it. Now that a child was left behind, it was a groundbreaking discovery. This was extremely precious news!
The next day, a headline appeared on the masthead: " Extraterrestrial visitor " news, with two color photos attached, said that this disc was very likely to be a UFO that had visited Earth several times. It was the biggest mystery that scientists around the world were trying hard to find and study. This strange baby was an extraterrestrial visitor that fell from this UFO!
As soon as the newspaper came out, people rushed to buy it and circulated it. The newspaper on that day could be said to be expensive in Luoyang, breaking the distribution record of the county newspaper in the 20 years since its establishment. The old hunter had also become a household name in the county. The workers, farmers, merchants, and all sorts of people rushed over to see what was happening. For a moment, the old hunter's house was bustling with activity.
