When she woke up, Su Xiaoling had already cut down several green trees for her to clean up.
Wei Ling looked at the ones that had not been burned last night. She was puzzled: "Isn't there still so much left? Why do we have to do this work today? I already had blisters on the palms of my hands yesterday!"
Wei Lingsheng took action. Her well-maintained hands had several blisters that had dried up.
"Ah--"
Su Xiaoling sneered and stretched out her hand. The blood soaked in the bandaged cloth had dried up.
"If Queen Mother is not willing to do it, no one can force you. Similarly, if I am not willing to do it, no one can force me."
Su Xiaoling's voice was cold, and she looked straight at Wei Ling.
Wei Ling's expression gradually weakened. She looked at the gray sky outside and felt despair in her heart.
She lowered her eyes, picked up the dagger on the ground, and answered with action.
Su Xiaoling turned around and said calmly: "The weather is cold and it may snow soon. After the snow, it will be more difficult to find food and get wood."
After saying this, Su Xiaoling turned around and went out.
Wei Ling looked at Su Xiaoling's back and felt her vision was a little blurry.
Su Xiaoling searched for a long time, but could not find any trace of wild animals, not even snakes.
She sighed under the wild fruit tree and picked all the fruits. There was no meat, so she could only eat these wild fruits to satisfy her hunger.
There was nothing on the ground. When Su Xiaoling walked back, she started to look above her head.
She really saw a few big bird's nests.
It's just that the weather is so cold, so I don't know if there are any eggs left.
Su Xiaoling observed it and saw only the occasional big bird flying down in the sky, but there was no sound.
She returned to Xiaoyadong.
Wei Ling's numb expression ignited a little light, and she said: "You are back."
"Um."
Su Xiaoling responded lightly and piled the fruits in a corner. It was still dark, so she only sat for a while and then went out again. She couldn't find any meat. She could also get some hay.
When she came back again, it would be dark.
But this time, she brought back some grassroots.
Wei Ling saw that there was no meat today, and she licked the corners of her mouth.
The fruit is not delicious when cooked, but now it is the only thing to eat.
If it weren't for Su Xiaoling's chapped lips, Wei Ling would have thought she had eaten secretly outside.
In the second half of the night, there was a rustle and wind blowing outside.
It's snowing, with rain mixed in with the snow.
Wei Ling looked at the sleeping Su Xiaoling and thought to herself, she was really right.
It was just one night, and the sky outside was already covered with heavy white snow. Now, it was actually more difficult to find food and firewood.
Firewood was not easy to burn, so they had to save some.
Both of them only ate one piece of fruit in the morning.
Su Xiaoling bled Wei Ling again and carried her to the toilet. Then she was ready to go out. She remembered the route yesterday and went with a goal today, so she didn't have to leave early.
"Are you still going out?"
Wei Ling spoke in confusion.
Su Xiaoling nodded: "When I came back yesterday, I saw a few bird nests. I went up the tree to see if there were any birds."
Eating this amount every day consumes a lot of physical energy. If it is not replenished, the body will become weaker and weaker. She doesn't know why there are no other wild animals in this land, and she has only encountered snakes a few times. If she had known it from the beginning, she would not have known it when she met snakes.
Will let go.
The bird's nest is a hope. Go take a look while you are still strong and mentally strong.
"Xiao Ling, be careful."
Wei Ling said a little awkwardly that she was climbing a tree. The tree was very tall. She was worried about Su Xiaoling. If something happened to Su Xiaoling, she would not be able to survive.
Su Xiaoling did not answer, and her figure disappeared from Wei Ling's sight.
Wei Ling's eyes dimmed. She looked at the vast snow-white world with a myriad of emotions. If she had never felt sorry for Su Xiaoling, and she was so sad now, Su Xiaoling would probably comfort her.
Thinking about it, Wei Ling couldn't help but laugh at herself.
She always said that words were useless, but when she met him, she actually wanted to hear some comforting words.
Now that things are like this here, she doesn't dare to think about what will happen when she returns to the capital.
Her lower body was numb, and she clenched her palms tightly, fearing that her fear was becoming reality bit by bit...
Su Xiaoling came to the tree because of the heavy snow last night, which gave her more resistance to climbing the tree.
She entangled the vines, made sure they were strong, and then began to climb slowly.
Snow clumps would fall from the trees from time to time, and it would fall on the top of the head and face, which was quite painful.
She didn't dare to relax, her face was red with anger. Seeing that she was getting closer and closer to the bird's nest, she heard some movement inside the bird's nest.
She began to concentrate her mental strength, capture the bird's consciousness, and then attack fiercely.
The big bird in the bird's nest didn't understand what it was going through, but suddenly struggled wildly, fluttered out of the bird's nest, and then fell hard without control of its brain.
It made a hoarse bird call: "Whissing——"
Su Xiaoling didn't know this big bird, and the sound of the bird's call was also very unfamiliar and not loud.
Another bird, unknown male or female, flew out of the nest and saw Su Xiaoling. It attacked Su Xiaoling fiercely.
Su Xiaoling was sweating profusely, and she could only bite the bullet and continue to attack the big bird with her mental power.
Big Bird doesn't have much intelligence and doesn't know what she did, but he also knows that she is the intruder.
The sharp mouth pecked her shoulder hard.
Su Xiaoling only felt that half of her shoulders were numb.
She drained all her mental energy and attacked the big bird. The big bird became unstable and fell hard.
Su Xiaoling held on to the vine tightly and gasped for air.
Her face turned pale, and the big bird pecked her shoulder. She felt that her whole shoulder had no feeling, and the pain was followed by numbness.
Su Xiaoling raised her hand and began to dismantle the bird's nest.
The two big birds were no longer in the nest, so she looked to see if there were any eggs or anything else in the nest.
After opening a gap, she saw a bird egg and a naked and shivering baby bird.
Su Xiaoling stretched out her hand and took out the egg as big as her fist, and she also caught the baby bird.
The big birds died, and the young ones couldn't survive either.
She started to get off the tree.
When she arrived under the tree, she could hardly stand. She panted for a while before shaking her head, and then walked towards the bodies of the two dead birds. It didn't take long and it was still warm. The birds were very big.
, each one weighs eight or nine kilograms.
For many days to come, I won’t have to worry about eating meat.
Su Xiaoling randomly pulled some hair off the bird's neck, and then bit it. She really couldn't hold it anymore. She didn't know whether it was because of hunger or injury, but her head felt heavier and heavier.
Bird's blood doesn't taste good, but it is hot and has some spiritual energy. After drinking it, Su Xiaoling feels that her vision is much clearer.
The fist-sized baby bird also lost its breath in her arms, and Su Xiaoling dragged the two big birds back.
When she came back, Wei Ling smiled when she saw her harvest.
Watching Su Xiaoling take out the bird eggs and then the baby bird's body, Wei Ling frowned and subconsciously said, "Isn't this too cruel?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she met Su Xiaoling's mocking eyes.
