Chapter 125 Dead dumplings become living dumplings doctors
On the ice cave, the big black and white dumpling that had just disappeared appeared again. It bared its fangs and glared at the black shadows below. Just looking at it, its expression seemed to be stunned.
Yun Buliu was very familiar with the few dark shadows in the soup pool below the ice cave. The largest black shadow was like a mountain of meat. They were the Dagong Mountain family.
The four smaller ones, although they haven’t been seen for more than half a year, have also grown a lot in size.
Yun Buliu didn't expect that he would meet their family here.
Originally, he said he was going out to collect some honey today, so he was prepared to meet their family and gain some respect from them.
But I never expected that they would actually run out of that ice cave.
He looked up at the mountain of meat standing at the entrance of the ice cave, and was a little surprised. Could it be that the ice cave was not a simple cave, but probably an entrance and exit?
Otherwise, how could the Black Bear Big Roushan family have fought with that big meaty dumpling until now? The roaring sounds coming from inside just now, as well as the movements of the earth shaking the mountains, were obviously the Black Bear Big Roushan and that big meaty dumpling.
It was probably caused by the rivalry between them!
That ice cave must be a large cave extending in all directions! Otherwise, how could the Daroushan family escape from there?
There are no bamboo forests nearby, so what does that big dumpling do for a living?
By eating other animals?
Yun Buliu was thinking while quickly digging into the ice.
The big dumpling looked at the entrance of the ice cave, and finally turned around and disappeared into the cave.
In the soup pool under the ice cave, the Daroushan family seemed to be relieved and took a dip in the pool. They lay paralyzed in the pool and groaned like an uncle.
The look of enjoyment made Yun Buliu secretly envious, and he secretly vowed to find an opportunity in the future to snatch this place away for his vacation.
Such a beautiful place is actually occupied by wild animals. It is such a waste of natural resources!
Finally, he wrapped several large pieces of ice lumps with black tiger skin, which weighed at least a thousand kilograms in total. He simply tied the tiger skins with hemp ropes, carried the ice lumps and left.
The little tiger cub's limbs were trembling slightly, because it had long seen the figures of the beasts in the valley, but the family was soaking in the hot springs and did not come out to pay attention to them.
The little fur ball was okay, still looking at the bamboo basket silently.
Yun Buliu picked up the big tiger skin wrapped in several large chunks of ice, carried a bamboo basket in one hand, called the two little beasts, and walked down the mountain.
But carrying something weighing more than a thousand kilograms on his shoulders made it extremely difficult for him to walk down the mountain.
Because there was snow all under their feet, it would reach almost up to their thighs when they stepped down, making it particularly inconvenient to pull them out.
This also made him more determined to do a good job of sledding next time he comes.
But fortunately, now he has great strength. Although he can't be fast, he can't move.
Originally, when I went out today, I simply looked for some honey, but who would have thought that it would turn out like this.
I originally planned to get back the situation when I met the Daroushan family, but now that I think about it, it seems that it is really not the time to take action.
The little dumpling in the bamboo basket needs a warmer place and some food. I don't know if I can feed it, so I can't stay here for too long.
No one knows what the outcome will be if there is a fight with this big Roshan family.
If you can't beat him and you don't have time to take this little dumpling with you when you run away, wouldn't it cost someone a little life?
Therefore, Yun Buliu had no choice but to put aside his thoughts of competing with the Daroshan family for the time being, carry the ice cubes back, make a warmer nest for the little dumpling, and get something to fill his stomach.
Then make a cellar and put these ice cubes in to prevent them from melting quickly.
The Daroushan family didn't seem to have any intention of causing trouble to Yun Buliu and the others. They soaked in the hot spring pool and looked like they didn't want to come out.
Thinking of this ice, Yun Buliu couldn't help but sigh to himself. It's a pity that there is no saltpeter, otherwise there would be no need to go to such trouble and have to carry the ice back from such a far place.
But thinking about the primitive people of those primitive tribes, Yun Buliu felt that he seemed to be happier than them! On hot days, there were still ice drinks to drink.
You can go back to the monkey's orchard and pick two oranges. Although the oranges are still far from ripe at this time, they have that sour and refreshing feeling that they can be used as lemons!
In the future, you can even teach the monkey to drink iced monkey wine. I think it will be very happy!
Eating barbecue and drinking ice-cold monkey wine...it's a pity that there are no glasses!
If you have a glass, you can also consider using the egg white of water duck eggs or swan eggs to clarify the monkey wine to make the color of the monkey wine clearer.
Thinking about all this, I don't know how long it took before they left the snow-capped mountains.
Stepping on the ground, even though he was carrying a thousand kilograms of weight on his shoulders, Yun Buliu quickly arrived at the lakeside with a bamboo basket in one hand, supporting the ice lump in one hand, and a hatchet in the other to clear the way.
Then follow the lakeside, bypass the stone beam, and return to the small bamboo building by the lake from the northeast.
As a result, along the way, the sharply polished hatchet had a few small holes in it.
Obviously, the hatchet made of pig iron is too brittle. If it accidentally hits the stone behind the bush, it is considered lucky that it does not break completely.
He felt that he really needed to get a charcoal furnace and resmelt all these tools.
Pig iron is indeed relatively brittle and hard enough, but its ductility is not good enough, so it is not suitable for making these small tools.
Fortunately, once the pig iron is heated at a high temperature, it becomes wrought iron. Then it should be quenched and it should work.
When he returned to the lakeside, it was already afternoon. He put the ice dumplings in the cave, then quickly took the small dumplings out of the bamboo basket and put them in the sun to warm them up.
Xiaotuanzi still had his eyes closed, and his breathing felt a little weak.
Yun Buliu quickly pulled out the small yellow mud charcoal stove and lit the fire to make soup. The soup he made was lotus root soup. In fact, if possible, he should make porridge at this time.
It's a pity that he has to keep the remaining millet as seeds.
As for giving broth to the newborn little guy, Yun Buliu didn't dare to do that.
The intestines and stomachs of new-born little beings must be very fragile. Even if this is a completely different world from the earth, how can the new-born beings be able to withstand all that greasy food?
At this time, he suddenly thought of Xiaobai, the little white snake from back then.
It seems that on the first day after Xiaobai was born, he begged him for meat! And he looked down upon him even if he refused to eat. It was...he didn't know how to describe it.
Maybe Xiaobai is gifted!
At the time, it didn't feel anything was wrong at all.
It’s normal to think about it. When snakes are born, the food they eat is not raw, so why should it be cooked? They can’t drink breast milk like mammals!
Therefore, he did not dare to try this little dumpling. If its fragile intestines and stomach really couldn't bear the greasiness, wouldn't it mean that he had killed it with his own hands?
After all, this little dumpling is not the little milk tiger it was back then. Although the little milk tiger was young, it is not like the little dumpling it is now, as if it was just born.
In fact, the best way is to find some female animals with cubs, and then borrow some milk from them. In fact, during this season, many female animals have just become mothers.
If you really look for it, you should be able to find some.
However, judging from the current situation, it is obvious that water from afar cannot quench our thirst.
So, boil some lotus root soup, then use a pounder to mash the lotus roots and mash them into lotus root puree.
After lighting up the yellow clay stove, Yun Buliu lit up the fire on the stone stove, then washed the big pot, filled half the pot with water, and put it back on the stone stove.
I washed a few more lotus roots, cut them into small pieces, and threw them into the pot. Then I threw a few pieces of crocodile rib meat into the pot, then covered the iron pot with a woven bamboo strip lid, and added firewood to the stone stove.
"Maoqiu, Xiaojinzi, you guys are watching the fire here, and this little dumpling, don't let those silly geese come over and bully it, you know?"
Although under normal circumstances, the fools in Goose Village would not come to him to die.
But don’t be afraid of ten thousand in everything, just be afraid of the unexpected.
If they weren't watching, how could this little dumpling be a match for those village tyrants?
After giving the order, Yun Buliu ran to the cave to dig a cellar hole.
Ice cellars are generally dug deep underground because the temperature deep underground is lower. They should also be dug near a water source, which makes it easier to retrieve and store ice in winter.
In winter, I wonder if this lake will freeze?
Thinking about it, it shouldn't be possible. The water flow of the river is so large. And when he left along the river last year, he saw no sign of ice on the river.
He dug a passage diagonally downward in the corner of the cave against the grove. He dug the hole very quickly, and the tiger fangs in his hands were flying, making it almost impossible to see the shadow.
Rather than using a hoe, he felt it was better to use tiger teeth, because the hoe might be too brittle and might not be able to withstand his high-speed swings.
However, just as he was waving his fangs vigorously, the babbling sound of the little furball came from behind him.
Hearing this voice, he couldn't help but froze for a moment. He turned around and saw the little fur ball calling to him again, then dodged and left the cave.
Yun Buliu was confused, turned around and followed it out of the cave.
As soon as he came out of the cave, he saw the tiger cub standing up and purring at him.
The little fur ball squatted in front of the little dumpling, also babbling.
Yun Buliu ran over to take a look, and quickly carried it back to the small bamboo house, because he found that the breathing of this small black and white ball was getting weaker and weaker.
Depending on the situation, it is estimated that it will be difficult to survive this test. If the situation continues, it may not be able to survive even giving it lotus root soup, and it will die.
Thinking about it, it’s not too surprising that a fragile little life that had just been born without even opening its eyes was ruthlessly abandoned to a hot spring pool to fend for itself.
It can still maintain a faint breath, which is already a good fortune teller.
what to do?
Yun Buliu scratched his head and thought for a long time before he gritted his teeth and said: "There is no other way. Let the dead dumpling become a living dumpling doctor! Little guy, whether you can survive or not depends on how hard your life is!"
As he spoke, his eyes slowly closed, and his mind sank into the microscopic world.
Then he pulled a ray of mysterious energy from the outside world into the little dumpling's body.
