Chapter 24 Together
Ye Xiaolou, who left, had no idea that in ancient times, a man's name could not be called out directly, so she used a hunting knife to cut branches while complaining.
"Hmph, I'm not old and have a lot of thought, who is?"
But the corners of his mouth immediately turned up. This guy likes to be clean and clean the most and let him dig a trap. Hehe, this method is indeed good.
Ye Xiaolou praised his wit.
Then I started to cut down branches seriously. To be honest, it was a trap of catching rabbits. It was difficult or not, and it was easy or not. This was actually a technical job.
It is mainly reflected in the mechanism that creates traps.
After Ye Xiaolou brought the cut branches, he picked up a small stone and came back happily.
Sure enough, I saw the boy in front of me, sitting upright on the round basket beside me, looking at her with a resentful look, as if she had abandoned her.
After looking closer, he saw that his white shirt and long boots were now covered with mud. Even his clean face was not spared, and the scarf on his head was crooked.
Seeing this, Ye Xiaolou couldn't help laughing out loud.
The mood became happy instantly, and his beautiful big eyes were curled into crescent moons, and he said gloatingly: "Oh, what are you doing?"
"How old are you, you still play with mud?"
The boy was stunned by the words, then his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes became more and more cold.
The girl in front of her was smiling and she was not afraid at all.
He glanced at the trap and said helplessly, "I'm tired after digging a few times?"
"You can't do that?"
As soon as these words came, the boy turned his head and glanced coldly at her, his eyes full of danger.
Ye Xiaolou stopped when he saw it, so he simply picked up the shovel. After a while, a deep pit with a diameter of about thirty and a depth of about 80 were dug.
Then I picked up the hunting knife, brushed it, and put it aside a few strokes, and a few branches of similar thickness, length and appearance.
Ye Xiaolou picked up a stone as big as a palm, and began to stake it into the soil with a jingle, tied the wooden pot lid with a rope, and then knocked it in the round pit. Then he put a few small branches, and after doing this, a trap for catching hares was completed.
The boy's eyes were not gone from the busy little figure. Seeing her stop, he was a little curious, "Is that okay?"
Ye Xiaolou stood up, patted his hands afraid of his hands, and said confidently: "Natural."
"Then, you'll take a closer look."
After saying that, he gently threw the stone in his hand into the pit, and hit the machine just in time. Then he heard that with a bang, the wooden pot lid that was set up fell off directly.
Just covered the round hole underneath.
A trace of surprise flashed in the boy's eyes, and Ye Xiaolou smiled and said, "How is it?"
"This girl is naturally extraordinary. Wait, you will definitely be able to eat roast rabbit meat today."
After saying that, I restored the wooden pot lid. This thing is quite heavy and made of solid wood, so I don’t worry about the hare running away.
Then he arranged the mechanism in the pit and placed the cabbage he brought from his home on it. Then he looked around for alfalfa that rabbits like to eat.
After putting it down, Ye Xiaolou patted the dust on his hands, "Okay, everything is ready, it's just a hare."
"Let's go."
"We will catch a few sparrows in this moment."
"I just went there to cut branches and found a good place."
...
I have to say that Ye Xiaolou's ability to survive in the wild is really great. In a short while, another trap of catching sparrows with a round basket was done.
This is not necessary to dig a hole, it is much simpler than a rabbit trap. You just need to hang the round basket obliquely, make the mechanism with branches, then put the rope long and throw a small handful of corn under the round basket.
Just wait for the birds to come and find food, then pull the string and put the round basket down and catch it.
This tests patience, hand speed, and predictive ability.
The two of them lay motionless two meters away from the trap, staring at the prey, waiting for the sparrow to get into the trap.
As expected, hard work pays off. When Ye Xiaolou pulled the string, he quickly landed on the basket, which shocked several sparrows, leaving behind his companions who had no time to fly away.
Ye Xiaolou said happily: "Go away quickly and you will gain something."
The boy also got up and followed behind with a look of hope.
"Look, I caught two more, the birds here are so stupid."
"In addition, we caught four of them before, one person has two, so we can first cushion your belly."
After saying that, I put away the tools neatly and did not forget to pack the corn on the ground. Although it had been mixed with soil, it could still be used next time.
The boy followed Ye Xiaolou silently.
Until the fire broke out and the rich aroma of barbecue broke into the nose, Cui Yuanheng was still unable to come back.
Looking at the girl who was still beautiful but still beautiful without makeup in front of him, he felt like he was dreaming.
He lived for seventeen years, and had never lived so freely.
His weak body ruined all his possibilities, and now, he actually had such a day of will?
And all of this is brought by the girl in front of you.
Maybe the boy's eyes were too hot, so it was difficult for Ye Xiaolou to ignore them.
So while turning the red willow branches of sparrows, he turned his head and smiled, "Are you anxious?"
The boy was stunned, but a roasted sparrow appeared in front of him without any warning.
Then the girl smiled happily and said, "Smell it, isn't it very fragrant?"
"Hehe, does it smell?"
"But I have to wait a while before I can eat it."
After hearing this, the boy's face became a little stiff and faintly hot. I don't know if it was shy or burned.
However, looking at the two roasted sparrows that were sizzling on the flames, the gravy was emitting a seductive smell of fat.
The boy looked at the serious girl again and swallowed in a desperate situation.
“It’s quite fragrant.”
I don’t know if it’s about roasted sparrows or humans.
Of course, Ye Xiaolou didn't think much about it, and smiled brightly and lipped on his lower lip, "Wait a little longer, sprinkle some salt, roast it and eat it."
The boy nodded without saying a word. After a while, Ye Xiaolou handed him a string, "This string is ready, you eat it first, be careful to burn it."
The boy took it silently, and his eyes flashed when he looked at her.
The sunlight is slanting and the river is shimmering. On the green slope not far from the river bank, the boy is silent, the girl smiles like a flower, and a bonfire in front of her, and each person is holding a bunch of grilled sparrows and eating it smells good.
While the two were stealing food, the little girl Cui Yulan caught fish in the river with a sad look on her face.
Although it was the end of February, the river was still cold and the little girl looked stubborn.
"I don't believe it anymore. Without her broom star, I can't catch fish."
"Little sister, wait, sister will definitely catch a fish bigger than her for you to eat."
Cui Yulan, who was blocking her breath, was trembling with coldness and still persisted.
As a result, Ye Zhaodi, wearing a light blue coarse cloth dress, was as thin as her mother. She had a long face and eyes, and was carrying a wooden basin to the river to wash clothes when she happened to meet her.
She originally wanted to turn around and leave, but immediately thought of Ye Xiaolou's broom star, so she settled in place.
Now she has become a laughing stock in the whole village. No, not only her, but her whole family has become a laughing stock.
