sunset pine smoke

Perhaps it was because he hadn't slept on a soft duvet for a long time, and feeling the long-lost modern atmosphere, Ye Feiyang stayed in bed for the first time, knowing that Qi Shu had already woken up to go hunting, and obviously still thinking about going up the mountain with Qi Shu last night , but right now he is still rubbing against the quilt, reluctant to open his eyes.Even Ji Xiang, who always loved to sleep by the lapel of his shirt, changed his goal and grabbed the quilt.

Qi Shu looked at the laziness of the two on the bed, smiled silently, bent down to help them close up the quilt, unexpectedly the thin and light quilt was unexpectedly warm, and it was not overturned at night, After watching them for a while, Qi Shu turned around and patted the tiger cubs who had woken up at some point, and one big and two young went out the door lightly.

So, Ye Feiyang slept peacefully in the warm bed until the sun was up, until Jixiang in his arms was so hungry that he couldn't help protesting, then he opened his eyes, smiled and shaved Jixiang's little nose with his hand, pinched it Squeezing his short legs that kept kicking: "Hungry, I'll get you something delicious right away!" Turning over and sitting up, Ye Feiyang couldn't help shrinking his neck when he was suddenly stabbed by the cold air around him. It's really getting cold today.

I washed a few sweet potatoes and made a pot of sweet potato soup, then crushed them into a paste with a spoon and fed a small bowl to Jixiang, then put him on the bed and covered him with a quilt.Ye Feiyang just started working. I heard from Qi Shu that in winter, when the mountains are covered by heavy snow, it is difficult to go out. Basically, you can’t hunt anything, so you must be prepared for the winter, although there are vegetables in the space. Melons and fruits, but space is not everything. If some things can be prepared, it is better to have them all prepared.Last time I worked so hard to dry some sauerkraut and pickled radishes, but they were all stolen. Now that the weather is sunny, I need to get some more.

So Ye Feiyang went into the space again, collected some white radishes and came out, Qi Shu and Tiger Cub were not at home, he didn't dare to leave Jixiang alone to sleep in the room for too long.The carrots were cut and chopped, and they were spreading out on the bamboo sieve to dry, when Qi Shu returned with a full load, and the two little tiger cubs behind him held a rabbit and a brown animal of unknown origin in their mouths, and saw Ye Feiyang , immediately ran over cheerfully, put the spoils in his mouth in front of him like offering a treasure, and roared twice.Now their voices are no longer the meowing of kittens, but somewhat like the king of the jungle.Ye Feiyang hastily moved the carrot sticks away, afraid of getting blood stains, he stretched out his hand to scratch their chins as a reward, the two cubs rubbed against each other, and consciously went to the stream to wash off the blood stains on their fur.

Looking at the prey that Qi Shu brought back, Ye Feiyang clicked his tongue twice: "It's only been so long today, why are there so many?"

"Most of them fell into the traps, and some were lost and never brought back." Qi Shu said, took a knife and went to the stream to deal with the prey.

After lunch, Ye Feiyang suggested: "Although we can't raise livestock here, we can do it in my baby space. Let's build a few fences later, and catch some live rabbits and pheasants to raise them. The wild boars are no longer needed." , so as not to run out and ruin the crops."

"Well, that's good, there are fresh ones to eat in winter."

Ye Feiyang nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, especially pheasants, we need to catch more, Jixiang can eat eggs now, let them lay more eggs."

Qi Shu said: "The pheasant can't lay eggs now."

"why?"

Qi Shu explained: "Pheasants are different from domestic chickens. They rarely lay eggs, and usually they don't lay eggs after late autumn." Ye Feiyang opened his mouth slightly, his cheeks were a little hot, he really didn't know this!Seeing this, Qi Shu smiled lightly: "I didn't know it at first, I only knew it because someone in the village had raised it."

"Oh, I still want to give Jixiang some eggs every day, but I'll have to wait until I go down the mountain to raise chickens next year."

Qi Shu thought for a while: "The eggs sent by the villagers will be placed with you first, and I will go find some bird eggs in the next few days."

"That's fine." Ye Feiyang agreed, and warned again: "It's enough to take one or two at a time, don't take all the eggs in the bird's nest."

Qi Shu's smile was gentle and mellow: "Okay."

After the two discussed it, Ye Feiyang carried the sleeping Jixiang into the space, and then followed Qi Shu up the mountain again, planning to go to the bamboo forest to cut some bamboo to make a fence with the trees, and bring some bamboo to the space by the way. to raise.

With Qi Shu leading the way, Ye Feiyang felt no pressure. Along the way, he saw many small animals with fluffy tails flashing among the trees, and small sparkling eyes timidly, with a hint of curiosity. Ye Feiyang I recognized that it was a little squirrel protecting food. It is estimated that the severe winter is coming, and the small animals have started to store food.Seeing the pine nuts held by the little squirrel, Ye Feiyang's heart moved, he pulled Qi Shu and said, "Brother Qi, let's go pick some pine nuts too!"

Qi Shu turned his head: "Do you like to eat?"

Ye Feiyang was taken aback: "Eating pine nuts is good for your health."

"Then get the bamboo first, and pick it tomorrow. There are a lot of pine nuts in this forest."

Ye Feiyang nodded with a smile, of course he knew that there were a lot of pine nuts here, why didn't he think of it before!In addition to pine nuts, there must be many other good things in this mountain. Looking at Qi Shu's appearance, he probably doesn't think much about those foods on weekdays. These days, we should walk around the mountains with him more and try to dig out more good things. !

Ye Feiyang is already very familiar with that large bamboo forest, and the two cubs are also very familiar, they don't need to say hello, they run wildly in it, Ye Feiyang doesn't care about them, and choose together with Qi Shu Bamboo, the bamboo to be placed in the space should not be too thick, and the roots are too deep to be difficult to dig. Anyway, it can grow green and verdant in the space anyway.

Qi Shu was quick with his hands and feet, and picked up the thin bamboos to dig. After digging fifty or sixty trees, he stopped. Ye Feiyang put all the bamboos he dug up in the open space in the space and put them away, ready to go home later. Plant slowly.Seeing that it was still early, they dug up a lot of bamboo shoots, and got a lot of old and tender ones, so they gave up and called back the cubs to go back. The two little guys caught another pheasant, but it was a pity that the pheasant His neck has been bitten, and he probably won't live long.Ever since he knew that pheasants could not lay eggs every day like hens, Ye Feiyang was not very interested in raising pheasants. This thing can fly high and it is definitely not safe to keep in the space.

The way back was a bit different from the way back, the fallen leaves on the ground were covered with a thick layer, and one foot stepped into the deep pit, Qi Shu walked for a while, grabbed Ye Feiyang and booed, and pointed at the top at the same time, Ye Feiyang looked up along his hand, and saw that there seemed to be something among the dense branches and leaves. When he looked carefully, there was a bird's nest there. did it!Qi Shu looked funny, patted him on the shoulder to signal him to stay below, then took a dagger in his hand, stretched his body, and climbed up the tree trunk lightly and skillfully.Ye Feiyang felt that Qi Shu was not climbing the tree at all, but was walking up the tree. Not long after, he saw Qi Shu climbed to the top of the tree. After a while, he turned around and lightly touched the dark brown egg in his hand. Lightly waved.Ye Feiyang suddenly laughed, luck is really good.

Qi Shu quickly landed on the ground, and as soon as he handed the fist-sized egg to Ye Feiyang, there was a sharp cry from above his head. Ye Feiyang looked up and saw a big bird flying back. He felt guilty and was pulled aside by Uncle Qi , the big bird circled around the tree, and the cry became more and more urgent and shrill. After a while, another bird also called, and then a bird that was bigger than this bird flew back. up.Two birds were flying around, their voices were urgent, Ye Feiyang couldn't hear it, he lowered his head and looked at the egg in his hand, wondering if it was an illusion, he felt that the egg seemed to move by itself, could it be that the bird inside had already formed?

Qi Shu originally wanted to pull Ye Feiyang away, but when he saw that he was looking at Dan seriously, with a somewhat annoyed expression on his face, Qi Shu stopped and stood beside him. After waiting for a while, Ye Feiyang raised his head with clear eyes "Brother Qi, give these eggs back to them, after all, they are their children." Qi Shu was not surprised that Ye Feiyang would say that, nodded immediately, took the eggs and was about to go out, but was stopped , I heard him say again: "Be careful, or we will put it under the tree?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Patting Ye Feiyang on the shoulder, Qi Shu walked under the tree, stepped down a little, and jumped lightly up the tree. Ye Feiyang's eyes widened instantly. Could this be a legend? The light work in the middle?

Those two birds also found Qi Shu's figure, they screamed and swooped towards him. Qi Shu supported the tree trunk with one hand, and held up the bird's egg in his palm with the other. The two birds immediately stopped their movements and stared at Qi Shu. The tree gave out warning calls, Qi Shu slowly approached the bird's nest, the two big birds immediately flew to the bird's nest, with a posture of protecting the calf, Qi Shu slowly stretched out his hands to the bird's nest, the two big birds The bird stared at Qi Shu's movements without blinking, and it seemed that it was about to reach the bird's nest. Qi Shu's movements suddenly accelerated, and he quickly put the eggs into the bird's nest. Jumped off the tree.The two birds couldn't make a blow, and became angry from embarrassment. They were about to dive down, but after seeing Qi Shu's movement, they flew back unwillingly, and circled for a long time screaming.

Ye Feiyang watched the two birds swooping down, feeling like he was being watched for a moment, and then saw Qi Shu raised his bow and arrow at them, and felt extremely nervous, the two tiger cubs didn't see them following them, Jumping back again, seeing this posture, he immediately lowered his body and roared.The two birds immediately gave up circling and flew back to the nest, Qi Shu took the opportunity to pull Ye Feiyang up and walked away.

After walking for a long distance in one breath, Qi Shu slowed down, felt the sweat on the palm of Ye Feiyang's hand, and asked with concern: "Feiyang, how are you?"

Ye Feiyang panted slightly, and shook his head: "I'm fine, Brother Qi, don't dig out bird eggs in the future, let's raise chickens and lay eggs for Jixiang to eat."

Qi Shu took out a handkerchief from his bosom, wiped the sweat from Ye Feiyang's forehead, guessed that he was quite frightened just now, and said softly: "Okay, I won't pick out bird eggs from now on."

Ye Feiyang gradually calmed down, only to realize the intimate gesture with Qi Shu, blushed, and hurriedly took a step back to get away, but saw Qi Shu pointing at a place: "Feiyang, isn't this the white fungus you mentioned?" Turn around, don't you!A lot has grown on this half of the dead wood!Immediately, he moved over happily: "Yes, this is it! This sweet soup is the best!"

Qi Shu followed Ye Feiyang with a shallow smile. He knew that there were white fungus here early in the morning, and brought Ye Feiyang here specially. He likes to see Ye Feiyang's bright and vivid expression when he is happy. It is obviously an insignificant thing, but in his eyes It is a great satisfaction.

I dug a pile of bamboo, bamboo shoots and white fungus in the past half a day, which is naturally a rewarding return, but the auspiciousness that was forgotten in the space, after waking up, blinked, turned back and forth, looked around, and suddenly disappeared. In the mood of crying, I grabbed the rattle next to the pillow to kill the time by myself.When the little belly cried out in hunger, he finally saw the irresponsible parents, Ji Xiang resolutely threw away the rattle in his hand, and burst into tears, his voice was so wronged!
