[Ting Yu] Abandoned in the wild

29. Backtracking?

From that day on, Chen Ting and others began to build a wall as tall as a person on the north and south sides of the mountain.That night, Chen Ting told Okur his thoughts, and immediately got the approval of this honest and honest man.Every time Sawyer went out to pick fruit with the females in the tribe, he was also very worried about his safety.Hearing that Chen Ting said that if the fence is built, the females will be able to find delicious food and fruits from here in the future, he simply agreed.

On the day when the work started, Okur not only came by himself, but also brought two men.Those are the brothers he grew up with, and he said that their relationship with him is like that of Chen Ting and Mike, so he can definitely believe it.Chen Ting believed in Okur's character, so he sincerely welcomed the other two to join.When those two people heard Chen Ting say that the purpose of building the fence this time was to research a new method of building a house, which could build a stronger and warmer stone house, their faces were filled with joy and excitement.

Because of the addition of a few capable helpers, the original project progress has been greatly shortened.On the first and second days, Chen Ting and the others carried bamboo bows, arrows, slingshots and other weapons, and searched carefully in the area they had determined.After getting rid of all dangers, they divided into two teams. One team was responsible for clearing the overly high weeds on the mountain road where the wall was to be built, and then sent them back to the mountain for the females to smash the weeds and mud at home; A team of people followed the method formulated by Sanliu and began to cut down trees to make wooden stakes to stabilize the wall.From the third day onwards, the two teams started from the foot of the mountains on both sides, digging holes and burying wooden piles all the way to the small waterfall on the mountainside, making the final preparations before building the fence.

During the past few days, their food was settled at Xiyu's house, which is the nearest to the foot of the mountain.It is also for this reason that Zhiyuan, Sanliu, Meka, Zora, Sawyer, and the other two companions, Mijie and Bossy, are also used to coming to Xiyu's house in the morning and doing it together Prepare meals.Some continued to work here with the work they brought from home, while Meka, Zora, and Mijie followed Ning Zhiyuan in the past few days and started digging up all the herbs from the medicine fields outside the tribe. On a piece of land specially sorted out by the men within the wall at the foot of the mountain, there is a huge mulberry tree standing beside it, under which you can rest in the shade when you are tired from work.

Sanliu has also been very busy these past few days. He discovered a strange fruit, which is a kind of food commonly used by people in this era.But before the end of the world, I had never seen it before, and people here called it Tuo Tuo Guo.This potato-like fruit grows in the soil and can be ground into flour after drying.There are many females who like to use it to make some pancakes instead of meat as the staple food.Sanliu didn't find this kind of plant in his encyclopedia, and it must be a new species derived from the earth in the past 500 years.But he took a bite and found that the taste of this thing was very good.So he began to use the method recorded in the book to teach others to make some other flavors of bread.The meat patties made with different wild vegetables picked and minced meat also have their own characteristics.So in the past few days, they have been keen to make this, and every meal must have this meatloaf as the staple food.

Many people came to the house, which was a very happy thing for Xiyu who had always been used to loneliness.In the past, when he walked in the tribe, what he got the most were the eyes that everyone disliked and wanted to avoid.But now the people who come to the house are kind and kind, and when they talk together, no one will dislike him for his inarticulate speech, and he is not as quick to deal with it as others.Everyone would wait gently for him to finish his words slowly, which made Xiyu very happy, and also very happy to see everyone busy coming in and out.

At noon that day, Chen Ting was the first person to come down from the mountain. As soon as he walked into the door of his house, he saw several females busy making lunch around the firepit in the yard.Because there were more people in the family, Chen Ting and others built a firepit in the yard a few days ago, so that it would be convenient to cook at the same time without wasting time.The vegetable soup made by Xiyu is unmatched by anyone, so he is in charge of a firepit, cooking potato and vegetable soup in a stone pot at home, while several other people are busy making wild vegetable meatloaf around another firepit.

Azhan and Dila from Suoya's family played with the little white tiger by the osmanthus tree, and the rescued child who was raised by Sanliu and Zhiyuan was sleeping soundly in the house.Xiyu looked after the child sparingly, and while stirring the stone pot with a wooden spoon, he looked at the fire pit on the other side.His eyes were focused and serious, how other people kneaded the dough, how they turned the dough into a cake, and how they were baked on a stone board with oil, he watched every process very carefully.It's just that every time someone notices his gaze, he shyly looks away and purses his lips in embarrassment.

Chen Ting saw all this from a distance, and frowned slightly.He stepped into the yard, and several other people smiled and nodded when they saw him as a greeting.He calmly nodded his head in return, walked all the way to Xiyu and sat down on the stone stool next to Xiyu.

"The soup Xiyu made today is still so fragrant." He lowered his head and leaned closer to the stone pot to smell it, and said with a smile.

Hearing his words, the mild-mannered partner smiled shyly and said, "Ah Ting likes it, Xiyu is very serious about it."

What he said was true, everyone worked together, but only Xiyu could wash the vegetables five or six times, and even the potato skins were ground off with a stone knife before cutting.When you eat it just for Ah Ting, you will find it delicious.

Chen Ting smiled, and stretched out his hand to rub his hair, "As long as it is made by Xiyu, I like to eat it."

The little friend pursed his lips subtly and lowered his head to smile. Chen Ting looked at him, then swept the meatloaf that was being baked in the fire pit beside him, and said calmly, "Is Xiyu tired today? What did you do?"

"Hmm..." Xiyu was stunned for a moment, his originally bright eyes dimmed for a moment, he lowered his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "Xiyu is not tired, Xiyu is taking care of Ah Zhan and washing vegetables for everyone .”

Chen Ting said again: "Why doesn't Xiyu make meatloaf with everyone, I think Xiyu's cooking must be delicious, and Ah Zhan and I will like it."

"Xiyu will work hard to learn." The always docile partner didn't answer his words seriously this time, but slightly turned his face away, and vaguely agreed to this sentence.

Looking at him, Chen Ting frowned slightly.

At this moment, the others also returned to the stone house.Lunch was ready, and everyone began to eat around the firepit. Xiyu's vegetable soup was paired with wild vegetable patties, which had both the refreshingness of vegetables and the rich aroma of meat. The working men who ate were satisfied, Even Chen Ting, who was worried, ate several extra cakes.

Because there are no bowls in this era, when everyone eats together, they use bamboo tubes instead. Put the cooked vegetable soup in the bamboo tubes, and there will be a scent of bamboo, which makes the taste better.

Lueshang was sitting next to Sanliu, busy and heavy physical labor made him unable to care about anything at the moment, he kept sending mouthfuls of soup and cakes to his mouth, eating with great enjoyment.Sanliu was eating politely, but he was paying attention to the situation around him out of the corner of his eyes.As soon as Lue Shang finished eating one cake, a second one was handed over.

Lueshang was slightly surprised, looking at the meat pie that Sanliu handed over, the hands holding the meat pie were fairer and slender than others.

"Three six?"

"Eat more, I have to work in the afternoon." Sanliu handed him the things, took his empty bamboo tube, and added a bowl of soup for him.

Several other people watched this scene quietly, and exchanged a puzzled look with each other, and they were a little confused about the situation in front of them.

"Thank... thank you." Lueshang was stunned for a long time before he suddenly realized that he took the meat pie from Sanliu and smiled from ear to ear.

Mike came over from the side, with an ambiguous smile on his face, and said mockingly, "Is it delicious?"

"Nonsense." Lue Shang bumped him away with his shoulder, feeling a little embarrassed.

The others all laughed, but tacitly did not open their mouths to reveal the hazy tulle between the two.In this tribe, whoever takes a fancy to a certain female will take the initiative to take care of it.Then, after being recognized, partner with each other.However, this was the first time they saw a female take the initiative to take care of the other party, and they felt admiration for the special customs of overseas tribes.

In such an atmosphere, a lunch came to an end very quickly.Because they will continue to go up the mountain to build the fence in the afternoon, all those who have to work go to the house to take a nap to let their bodies have a good rest.The females were busy cleaning up the aftermath, and at the same time prepared some hot water to put into bamboo tubes for them to take up the mountain in the afternoon.

After Sanliu and Zhiyuan finished their work, they studied some newly discovered herbs under the shade of the tree next to the stone house, and others carried their food to the stream to wash. The hardworking Xiyu naturally joined them. in ranks.

Chen Ting, who was supposed to be resting in the room, came out at some point and came to Sanliu under the tree.

"What's wrong?" Zhiyuan and Sanliu raised their heads and looked at him.

"I have one thing I want to ask you for help."
