Yao Xiaoqing closed the door and started practicing. After more than an hour, he ran to the top of the mountain and ran quickly around the trees. When he started running quickly, he accidentally hit the trunk of the tree.
After practicing for half an hour, she regained her feeling and her speed became faster and faster. She felt that the original owner's body had good flexibility, agility and explosive power, making it more suitable for martial arts training than her previous body.
After practicing his speed, he stopped to hit trees to practice his punching ability with his fists and feet. Finally, he took out the small stones he was carrying and threw them. Only when his hands and feet became sore did he put away the stones and go down the mountain.
When we reached the foot of the mountain, we saw Shui Bo and Zhong Bo carrying the dug roots and trunks to the foot of the mountain and building them up to dry.
Yao Xiaoqing went up the mountain into the courtyard, and Hua came out of the cave carrying the burned earthen pot.
"Xiao Qing, the food is put in the jar, do you still need to burn the mud flakes and ash balls?"
"I'll eat it after washing it. There's no need to burn the mud flakes and ash balls. I just pick them all up and put them in the dustpan. I'll use them later."
Hua smiled and nodded, "Hey! Wait until I put the jar into the fire pit. You can watch the fire at home while I go down the mountain to help."
"You go back later. I'll dry the salt and go down the mountain."
"Okay." Hua picked up all the burned ash balls and mud flakes into the dustpan, put the earthen jar into the fire pit, piled the firewood, lit the fire and continued to bake the jars.
Yao Xiaoqing spread the salt to dry in the dustpan, went in to eat, and then went down the mountain to the river with a wooden shovel and a bamboo basket.
When I walked to a dry river beach, I saw small fish and river shrimp swimming around in the shallow pond.
Thinking of frying river shrimps in oil, the greedy man came up and thought to himself: I will bring a bucket later and use a net to catch some river shrimps.
If you can't finish it, dry it and grind it into powder, which is natural MSG.
After collecting the sand and gravel and walking back, I suddenly saw a dry place in the river. There were many clamshell-like things in the collapsed sand and gravel layer.
Yao Xiaoqing walked over with a wooden shovel and dug a few times into the sand and gravel. He saw that there were many shells of shellfish mixed in the sand and gravel below.
She looked at those shells, and she felt as beautiful as sleeping on a pillow. It was just the right time. She thought to herself: Now it's better, don't worry about not having enough plant ash, sift out these shells and burn them into oyster ash, which has strong adhesion.
Much better than cement made from plant ash.
Yao Xiaoqing excitedly returned to the yard with a bucket full of sand and gravel, put the sand and gravel down, crushed the burned mud pieces with stones, and set them aside for later use.
I scooped out a bucket of water and put the ash balls of burned plants into the bucket. I saw that the ash balls were like lime blocks put into the water. They started to bubble and soon melted into the water.
inside.
Stir it with a wooden stick, pour half of it into the gravel, and pour the rest into the crushed mud. After mixing well, pinch two small square bricks and put them aside, and paste the rest in the toilet.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at the cemented toilet and clapped his hands. He picked up two small square bricks and looked at them. When they were dry, he saw whether the hardness of sand and gravel was better or that of crushed mud. This was related to
Her plan to build a house.
After finishing this, Hua went down the mountain to work with a stone ax, and Yao Xiaoqing went to pick up a bundle of vines, planning to weave a sieve, tie it to a wooden frame, take it to the river, sift out the shells, and bring them back to bake oysters.
Ash.
Before the screen was woven, something suddenly hit her head. "Golden Retriever," Yao Xiaoqing looked up in surprise, saw the golden retriever hanging on the wood of the fence, and shouted "Zhi Zhi" at her.
The golden retriever jumped down from the fence and jumped in front of her. Yao Xiaoqing picked it up and said, "Ha~~, little golden retriever, you are finally back, what should I do? There is nothing you like to eat here, sister. I
I’ll go make you an omelette, what do you think?”
The golden retriever looked at her and squeaked, each one expressing joy in his own language.
Yao Xiaoqing led Golden Retriever into the cave, washed his hands, fried him a duck egg and kudzu cake, let it cool and gave it to Golden Retriever, "Come Golden Retriever, eat it and see if you like it?"
The golden retriever grabbed the egg pancake and started eating it. After a while, he finished one egg pancake. He bared his teeth and smiled, patted his belly at her to indicate that he was full, and then walked outside.
Yao Xiaoqing happily followed Golden Retriever to the yard, sat down and continued to weave a sieve. Golden Retriever sat next to her, jumping around and groping around.

Yaohu and Dashi arrived at the foot of the cliff, while Mufeng and Zhi climbed up and put the rock salt into their backpacks and hoisted them to the foot of the mountain with climbing ropes. Yaohu and the others hung the empty baskets on the grappling hooks and pulled them up to continue loading the rock salt.
After filling six backpacks, a few people hurriedly walked back. They walked out of the valley and climbed up the mountain avoiding the dense forest.
For some reason, there are very few big trees on the mountain here, and the mountain is covered with thorns. From here, climb two hills and go down to the foot of the mountain. The journey is shorter than walking to the top of the mountain.
We walked to the foot of the mountain with a wooden stick, and everyone sat together and took out kudzu powder cakes to eat.
Mu Feng said to Yao Hu: "Father, why do the Shenmu tribe go farther to hunt here? Are the wild animals on the other side of the Shenmu Mountain gone?"
Yao Hu thought for a while and found that except for the occasional mention that there were witches in the Shenmu tribe, he rarely heard about the Shenmu tribe.
"I don't know. Apart from exchanging salt and magic medicine, the Shenmu tribe has never had any contact with us. I have never heard of them exchanging women with other tribes."
Dashi nodded, "Yes, I've heard people say before that they don't pair up with foreigners."
After everyone had eaten and drank enough, they picked up their backpacks and walked back along the foot of the mountain, beating the grass with wooden sticks and pushing aside the bushes as they walked forward. Along the way, they found several clumps of kudzu, taro, and yam vines.
Everyone walked to the pond, and Zhi looked at the pond, "No wonder Xiaoqing said that the pond should be surrounded by stone walls. There are many fish in the pond."
"We used to eat grilled fish in the tribe, but we didn't expect that fish soup tastes better than broth." Shan said with a smile.
Mufeng said loudly: "No way, I think the bone soup is very delicious, and the oil in the bones is delicious when you take a sip."
"What I think is most regrettable is the oil from the stomachs of large intestines, small intestines, wild boars, and goats, which can be used to make pancakes. Also, what is Xiaoqing's wok made of, and this axe?"
"Why can't we do this?" Xiong Niu said with some doubts.
Dashi patted him and said, "Xiong Niu, don't think about it. It was given to Xiaoqing by the gods. The gods! They all live in the sky."
Everyone was talking in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye they reached the foot of the mountain. They turned around and saw Yao Xiaoqing and Hua walking over carrying a basket of things. The golden monkey jumping in front of them was the golden monkey.
Yao Xiaoqing saw Yao Hu and the others and shouted happily, "Father, you are back so early!"
"Hey!" Yaohu responded loudly. Several people climbed up the stairs and entered the yard with their backpacks on their backs.
When Yun Amu saw them coming back, she happily went up to them and took Mu Feng's basket, "I brought so many back, now I don't have to worry about not having salt to eat."
