Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

But I had been sitting on this hillside with my hands on the ground.

When she raised her hand to cover his mouth, there were some grass clippings on her hand. When she took her hand away, the grass clippings remained on Mu Xi's lips.

Mu Xi's lips were very well made, neither thick nor thin. The philtrum was deep and the lip peaks were three-dimensional. The hot weather made the lips redder than usual.

Zhao Yeqing shifted his gaze and pointed at it, saying vaguely, "There are grass clippings."

Mu Xi raised his hand and wiped it on his lips, perfectly avoiding the grass clippings every time.

"Any more?"

She glanced at it and said, "Yes."

"where?"

"That's it."

"You wipe it for me."

Zhao Yeqing wanted to refuse, but the other person's eyes were calm, as if he was saying that it was you who did it in the first place, and it was normal for you to wipe it off.

It would be rude to refuse again.

She reached out to the lips, her eyes were wandering and she didn't dare to look directly, and she accidentally poked her finger between the two lips.

!!!

Zhao Yeqing quickly raised his head and saw Mu Xi's eyes were complicated and his eyebrows were raised.

She took out her fingers and wiped them on the grass clippings, pretending to be cover-up and turning her body unintentionally.

"All right!"

She hid her blushing face in the still dark sky.

I heard the man behind me make a sound in his throat.

"Ah."

Zhao Yeqing felt that he was mocking him.

Just as he was adjusting his emotions and preparing to fight back, he turned around and saw Mu Xi's eyes fixed in the distance.

"Look."

Zhao Yeqing looked in the direction of his finger.

In the distance, in the direction of the trap, there was a dark shadow near the No. 3 trap they had set.

Trap No. 3 is a snare trap. There is a lock on a long bamboo pole, which is usually fixed on the ground with a small wooden stick. As long as an animal walks by, it will be tied up by the lock and suspended in mid-air.

The bamboo pole was not short, so she thought the thief must not be a short animal.

But this dark shadow is very short.

Just as she was wondering, the figure hidden in the shade of the tree suddenly jumped up, winding its way up the bamboo pole, and swallowed the prey on the trap into its mouth in one bite.

Even though Zhao Yeqing was so far away, he couldn't help but move back, with goosebumps all over his body.

It was a snake about two meters long and as thick as a bowl.

No wonder the trap couldn't catch it, the traces on the ground were left by it crawling across.

She had never seen such a big snake, and she didn't feel this chill all over her body when she saw bears, lions and tigers.

A warm palm was placed on her back. She looked up at Mu Xi, who moved his hand to the top of her head and rubbed it.

"What are you afraid of?"

Zhao Yeqing was about to cry, but said, "Why don't we stop this trap?"

This snake is obviously used to coming to this trap for food. It is really too dangerous for them to come here again.

Mu Xi nodded in agreement and pulled her up from the ground.

The sun is rising slowly in the sky.

The first ray of morning light fell on the ground, allowing them to see clearly the patterns of the snakes.

Mu Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, "It looks like a Burmese python."

Zhao Yeqing didn't want to look at it, "Let's go, let's go."

If you give up one trap, you have to find another one.

The two followed the traces of the water source, resettled the trap in another place, and harvested the prey from the two original traps before returning home.

Only one rabbit was harvested in two locations, and an animal she had never seen was caught in one location.

The fur was black and brown, with white tips. It looked cute and cute. Zhao Yeqing reached out to put it down, but was almost bitten.

Mu Xi restrained it before allowing Zhao Yeqing to untie the noose.

He grabbed the animal and looked up and down. He said he had never seen it before, and only said, "It looks like a badger."

The two let it go and returned home with their only prey, the rabbit.

After checking the manual, I confirmed that this animal is called a crab-eating mongoose, which emits a foul odor and usually eats small animals such as frogs and snakes.

Thinking of the big snake, Zhao Yeqing felt inexplicably fond of the snake-eating animal and forgave him for trying to bite him. At least he didn't fart at her.

But after a busy morning, the thief didn't dare to catch it, so another trap was set.

Fortunately, the only rabbit was a grass rabbit, which was quite big, and one was enough for a family to eat.

Mu Xi's plan today is to mow the grass, which is still less than half the amount of silage the two of them planned.

Before going out, he slung the shotgun on his back, knelt down to tie his shoes and gave instructions,

"If you don't want to get pasture, don't do it. Just turn over the hay and feed the chickens and rabbits."

Zhao Yeqing nodded and sent him out.

Turning hay to feed the chickens and rabbits was done in less than half an hour.

Zhao Yeqing planned to wait for Mu Xi to transport the grass back before continuing to make silage. If we finish working together, we would not have to worry about it all the time.

While the sun was still not strong, she hurriedly watered the vegetable patch.

The vegetables grew very quickly and were already more than ten centimeters tall. Zhao Yeqing cut a handful of water spinach, leaving the stems below to continue growing.

The carob vines have also climbed very high and begun to bear flower buds.

Among the vegetables grown, only beans bloom and bear fruit, but it is also trouble-free as there is no need for manual pollination.

The carob bean flowers will pollinate themselves before they open.

I can’t help feeling that summer vegetables are more worry-free.

She got out of the greenhouse, put the water spinach into the barrel of the well, and then put the barrel into the well to keep the water spinach fresh.

It won't take long for them to wilt if left outside, but vegetables cannot be harvested at night. The wounds of plants without sunlight are prone to infection.

She returned to the house from outside and wiped the sweat on her head with a towel.

I feel like today is a little hotter than usual.

The food the two of them worked during the day was mainly carbohydrates, and the rice and noodles in the village would be wasted if they didn't eat them.

Zhao Yeqing took out two eggs from the chicken coop and put back the ones that could hatch, leaving only one.

Break it up and cook some rice.

Mu Xi dragged the cart home, unloaded the forage, threw the sheep's morning meal into the trough of the sheep pen, and piled the rest next to the house.

After unloading the forage, Mu Xi was about to go out again, "Wait until I come back after two more trips to make silage. Don't do it."

Zhao Yeqing put the bowl of fried rice into his hand, "Go back after you're full. What are you busy with? Just mow the grass and I'll do the feed."

Mu Xi finished the meal in a few minutes, washed the bowl, and shook the water in his hand, "Go and take a nap for a while. You got up so early in the morning to squat. You usually sleep like a pig. Are you not sleepy now?"

He must be sleepy. Zhao Yeqing rolled his eyes at him and said, "Just go to bed early at night. It's so hot that I can't sleep..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yeqing felt a slight itchiness on the area on his neck that was soaked with sweat.

She thought it was her imagination and looked up to see Mu Xi's hair moving.

"The wind is blowing...is it blowing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gentle breeze blew, bringing warmth in the air.

The two of them were still stunned by the first weather change in the past six months, but it suddenly changed.

The originally gentle breeze gradually intensified, causing the slightly taller grass on the pasture to bend.

The two of them realized that the hay was still drying outside, raised their feet and ran outside.

After urgently taking back all the hay, the wind became stronger and stronger.

The trees in the forest bordering the meadow in the distance were swayed left and right by the strong wind, and broken branches circled in the air and smashed to the ground.

The wooden house, which had been busy recently and had not been repaired, was violently knocked on the wall by the strong wind. The kitchen door banged with a loud bang before it could be closed, and he died heroically.

The sky suddenly darkened...
