Yao Xiaoqing untied the strap on the dagger, tied it to the outside of his thigh, and walked out with a steel pot and kettle in hand. He went to the stream and washed the pots, kettles, spoons, bowls, and chopsticks. Look.
There were wild vegetables growing everywhere. I pulled out some green shepherd's purse and washed them. I carried the pot with water and called Golden Retriever to go back.
When I went back and saw that the rice in the pot had boiled, I thought about it, took out the salt bag, tore it open and put a little salt in the pot. I stirred it in the pot a few times with a spoon and watched the white rice grains rolling in the pot.
He added some firewood to the fire nearby and saw Golden Retriever lying on his back a few steps away from the fire, squinting his eyes and falling asleep.
He turned to look at the father and son lying on a thin layer of hay, and thought: In the past, there were animal skins on the ground to block the moisture, but now there is not even a piece of fur. It is unbearable to sleep on the ground for a long time.
No, it seems we have to find a way to build a few beds.
The aroma of rice porridge wafted out. Xiaoqing stirred it with a spoon a few times. The aroma of rice floated in the cave, and the thick rice porridge with a layer of rice oil was ready.
Put the wild vegetables into the pot, stir it a few times, and the white color is mixed with a little bit of green. The sight of it will greatly increase your appetite.
He took the pot down, put the kettle on it and started boiling water. He took the pot to the corner where Yaohu and Mufeng were sleeping.
After smelling the fragrance, Mufeng opened his eyes and looked at her with shining eyes, "Xiaoqing, it smells so good!"
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "It smells good! Get up and eat before going to bed."
"Xiang, the food given by the gods is different." Yaohu and Mufeng sat up.
Yao Xiaoqing brought the bowl and spoon over, scooped out a bowl of porridge, put the spoon into the bowl, and gave it to Yao Hu, "You eat first, and I'll scoop it out for Ah Da."
When Mufeng served the porridge, Yao Xiaoqing discovered that Yaohu couldn't use a spoon. He smiled and picked up the wooden spoon in the pot and made a gesture of drinking porridge: "You see, this is how a spoon is used."
Yao Hu clumsily scooped a spoonful of porridge and slowly put it into his mouth. A soft and waxy salty aroma filled his mouth. The smooth rice porridge slid into his throat and went down. A warm feeling came to his heart.
Yao Hu looked at Yao Xiaoqing and said, "Xiaoqing, you are hungry too, you eat too."
"I'm not hungry, I've eaten."
Mufeng finished a bowl of porridge in two gulps, "It's delicious! It's delicious! Xiaoqing, did you go to the Wuxian tribe to exchange for salt?"
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and shook his head, adding another bowl to him: "There is salt in the bag given by the gods, I put some in it."
Yaohu patted Mufeng and said, "You have eaten, but my sister hasn't eaten yet."
Mufeng quickly handed the bowl to her, "Sister, eat."
"I'm not hungry. You guys eat. I'll go chop some firewood and come back. There are wild beasts at night."
Yao Hu nodded, "You are in the forest outside, don't go too far."
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, poured boiling water into the thermos kettle, packed up the pots and bowls and hid them in the hole. He carried the thermos kettle on his back and carried the engineer shovel towards the entrance of the cave. Golden Retriever immediately followed.
One person and one monkey walked outside the cave. Yao Xiaoqing turned around and blocked the entrance of the cave with vines, and walked towards the forest on the left with his golden retriever.
The golden retriever ran away without a trace after entering the forest. Yao Xiaoqing cut down a dead tree, dragged it back to the entrance of the cave and released it back to the forest.
Yao Xiaoqing picked up a dozen ash bags in the forest and wrapped them with leaves. This stuff has the effect of clearing away heat, detoxifying and stopping bleeding.
I also found a few prunella vulgaris and walked deeper into the forest with them.
Carefully look at the vines wrapped around the tree, looking for familiar rhizomes.
The green peach-shaped leaves on the vine in front caught Yao Xiaoqing's attention.
"Football." Yao Xiaoqing ran over and used a shovel to carefully shovel away the soil at the base of the toefoot. After ten minutes, a short, fat toefoot with two toes thicker than her arms was exposed.
Yao Xiaoqing happily took it out of the soil and weighed it. It was estimated to weigh two or three kilograms.
After digging for more than an hour, I dug out a dozen or so small and large plants.
Yao Xiaoqing cut some vines and tied them into knots, made a net bag, packed the vines, and put the gray bags and prunella vulgaris inside.
Bury the broken footboards back.
I found that this kind of thin rattan is very flexible, so I thought about making a backpack for carrying things easily. I cut a large bundle of thick and thin pieces, and cut another bundle of branches to tie them up. I carried the net bag and dragged the vine branches happily.
Go back.
****
A man with dark skin and a protruding forehead appeared in the woods beside the stream. He looked like a short, stocky man who had not fully evolved. His sneaky eyes were looking around in the woods, looking for something.
Hearing the rustling sound, the man saw Yao Xiaoqing with a smile on his face from the forest.
He licked his thick lips, showed a lewd smile, and ran out to stop her. He looked at her lewdly, "Aren't these our sisters Xiaoqing! How are your father and Mufeng? Xiaoqing
, Brother, let me help you and beg the Huoli leader to take you back to the tribe, as long as you are obedient..."
When Yao Xiaoqing saw the wretched look in his eyes, he felt sick and wanted to vomit. He suddenly remembered that this wretched man was called Dawu and he was one of Huoli's thugs.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Dawu looked at him in a daze, thinking that she had a heartbeat. He rubbed his dirty hands with a lewd smile, "Come here, brother will be nice to you and will give you food..."
Yao Xiaoqing put down the bag and vine branches in his hands, tightened his grip on the shovel, looked at him coldly, and shouted: "Get out of here."
"Do you think you are still a woman from the leader's family? Your mother and brother are both dead." Dawu Jiejie walked towards her with a weird smile, opened his arms and pounced on her.
Yao Xiaoqing ducked behind him and kicked him on the waist. He staggered for a few steps before regaining his balance.
"Woman from the Yaohu family, you are looking for death." Dawu turned around and looked at Yao Xiaoqing with a ferocious look, waving his fist and hitting Yao Xiaoqing.
Dawu is worthy of being a man who hunts in the mountains and forests all year round. His strength and movements are quite fast and fierce.
Yao Xiaoqing did not dare to confront him head-on, so she dodged a punch and hit him hard with the engineer's shovel. Dawu regarded Yao Xiaoqing as meat on the dipping board, thinking that she was still the reckless girl before.
The dark and shiny thing in her hand has the same power as the stone knife.
He didn't even have the idea of escape, he stretched out his big palm to grab Yao Xiaoqing, and the shovel struck his bear paw, "Ah...ah..." Dawu let out a shrill scream, and half of his palm fell to the ground.
On the ground.
"I'll kill you..." The pain did not make him retreat. Instead, he went crazy. He shouted, pulled out the stone knife and stabbed Yao Xiaoqing in the throat quickly.
Yao Xiaoqing hurriedly raised his head to avoid it, and the stone knife scraped across Yao Xiaoqing's cheek, leaving a bloody groove.
Dawu missed the target, raised his knife and stabbed her again, fast and hard.
Yao Xiaoqing raised the engineer shovel and stabbed him with all his strength. Dawu grabbed the handle of the shovel with a fervent smile in his eyes, "What a good thing!"
Yao Xiaoqing pulled out the dagger with his left hand, stabbed it into his heart, and pulled it out with force. Blood spurted out like a spring, and Dawu fell to the ground with his eyes wide open.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at Dawu who was lying on the ground bleeding, and put the dagger into its holster.
He held the engineering shovel tightly with trembling hands and muttered on his lips: "In this world, either he dies or you die."
Yao Xiaoqing suppressed the fear in her heart and took deep breaths. After more than ten breaths, she finally calmed down. She looked around, then dragged Da Wu's body and walked towards the cliff on the left.
