survival in the wilderness

Chapter 36 Wild Eggs

The next day, the three arbitrators called together the fifteen team leaders to discuss the important matter of digging canals and diverting water.

Each group was assigned a task of digging ditches, and the two water storage pits from north to south were delineated, and each group sent people to dig together.

The canal is about 500 meters away from the east of Sun City, and the low-lying place is selected according to the undulating terrain, and the canal is winding.

The place that the second team was going to dig was a section of their area, and Huahong was called away in the afternoon.

Lin Yan was left at home, roasting chestnuts for Ye Ya, and imparting new knowledge to him by the way.

Ye Ya already knows a lot of things now, "After dinner, let's go and see the land you planted."

In the past few days, whenever she has time, she has been going to the field, and she attaches great importance to it. Ye Ya wants to see it with her own eyes. What Lin Yan said is that it is really possible to grow by farming instead of hunting.

If it is true, his family will also open up wasteland and farm.

"Okay." Lin Yan was very happy. "The land is still too small. Half of it is planted with hemp, and the rest is occupied by chestnut trees. A few more fruit trees will fill it up."

"When will the fruit tree bear fruit?"

Lin Yan was stunned, "We'll see the situation after the fruit trees grow. At least it will take a few years."

"It's been so long, when we're all grown up, we can go out to pick fruits and eat them." Ye Ya frowned, thinking it was too long.

"In a few years, you will not be ten years old, how can you go out." Lin Yan disagreed, "When the fruit tree grows up and bears fruit, you can pick it whenever you want, how convenient it is."

"Yeah, it's convenient, but you'll have to wait a few years to eat it. These chestnuts are delicious, so you can eat them next year, right?" Ye Ya couldn't stop eating, and finished eating a big chestnut in just a few bites.

It's not the first time to eat, but he can't eat enough.

After the two little people finished eating the chestnuts, they walked westward with their calves, and walked along Eighth Street to the end, and they could see the situation in the field.

Mu Shi happened to take advantage of the break to see the two of them, and saw that the two of them had passed several houses.He hurriedly chased after him.

"Ye Ya, Lin Yan, where are you going?"

"Go to Lin Yan's family's field." Ye Ya looked at Father, and pulled Lin Yan to continue walking.

"Who told you to run around, you can't go without an adult watching." Mu Shi held the two of them back, and was about to walk back.

Ye Ya didn't want to go back like this, and begged: "Father, take us there, okay?"

Lin Yan also looked at Mu Shi with blinking eyes. It's okay to stay at home, she prefers to go outside, and if possible, she would like to go further.

Mu Shi wants to go home and make baskets, it is related to his livelihood.

Ye Ya rolled her eyes, "Father, you also want rattan, let's get some together, okay? Lin Yan and I will stay in the field."

Mu Shi looked to the west, it was not far from the house, there should be nothing wrong, he nodded in agreement, and walked west with the two little people.

Only a few days later, the hemp planted by Lin Yan had already sprouted, but the fruit trees remained silent.

The weeds in the field grew again, and she started pulling them.

Ye Ya also followed to help.

The wood and stone are on the edge of the ground to make rattan.This is the pika field, and there are bushes everywhere, some of which are so dense that people can't get through.

Not long after, Mu Shi got a lot of rattan and was ready to call it a day and go home.As soon as he turned his head, the two little people disappeared.

He was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "Ye Ya, Lin Yan, where are you?"

"Daddy, we're here."

Ye Ya's voice came from the jungle not far away, and Mu Shi hurriedly followed the voice to find it.

Seeing them getting well in the woods, Mu Shi raised his heart and blamed him: "Why didn't you tell me when you came here, it made me worry to death."

Ye Ya lowered her head and obediently admitted her mistake, "Father, it's our fault. It will definitely not be like this in the future."

Lin Yan shrank behind Ye Ya and pretended nothing happened. Although Mu Shi had a good temper, they did something wrong.

Huahong and Yezi take her and Yeya very closely, and if they know that Mushi is not watching over people, they will definitely blame Mushi.

What can wood and stone do with them?You can't hit, you can't scold, you have a good attitude of admitting your mistakes, you can only choose to accept.

"go home."

Ye Ya and Lin Yan immediately looked up at him, Mu Shi's heart tightened, did he not want to go back?
"Father, there is a nest of wild eggs over there, they are delicious, can we take them home together?" Ye Ya pointed in one direction.

"What are wild eggs?" Mu Shi followed Ye Ya's hand to look over, and saw a patch of weeds, taller than people, and couldn't see anything.

"Wild eggs are the eggs laid by pheasants. They are delicious." Ye Ya had a greedy look on his face. He had never seen them before, but Lin Yan said they were delicious.

Everything she found was delicious, and Ye Ya wanted to taste it.Now, the wild eggs are just three meters away, and the opportunity is right in front of us, we must not miss it.

Mu Shi looked over there hesitantly, the vegetation was too lush, if there was something inside, it would be too late to run.He said: "I can't see anything, come here quickly, go home."

Ye Ya became anxious, and pushed Lin Yan, "Father, Lin Yan said that there are wild eggs there, there must be some. If you want to find them, I will go by myself."

Mu Shi hurriedly grabbed Ye Ya, "It's all grass, where are the wild eggs, go back quickly. The grass is too high here, it's not safe inside."

Lin Yan said in time: "Wood and Stone, there are really wild eggs, and they are there. There is nothing else in the grass, so it is safe."

Her spiritual power can see there, she has checked all over this area, there are no insects, snakes, etc., as long as she goes there, she can pick up a nest of wild eggs, there are a dozen of them.Each one is as big as her fist and can eat a full meal.

This was the first time she had seen a wild egg, so of course she couldn't let it go.

Mu Shi paused, Lin Yan's words stopped him, "Is it really safe?"

"It's really safe, you take us there together." Lin Yan was sure, and almost patted his chest to promise.

In fact, her mental power is always paying attention to her surroundings, and she can immediately detect something approaching.

After hesitating for a while, Mu Shi believed Lin Yan, and he walked in front, protecting Ye Ya and Lin Yan behind, and earnestly told: "Follow me closely, don't run around."

The two little men hurriedly nodded to promise that they would be obedient.

Mu Shi waved the stone knife and cut down the bushes blocking the road, barely allowing people to pass.

It took them almost 10 minutes to reach the short distance of a few meters.

Lin Yan followed behind, complaining non-stop in his heart that the tools were still not strong enough. If he had a sharp machete, such bushes would be nothing.

It is also because the miscellaneous bushes in the wasteland grow too densely, and it will be very difficult to open up wasteland in the future.

Can't think too much, just thinking about it makes the future look bleak.

Overcoming obstacles, the three of them finally saw a nest hidden in the weeds. If they didn't look carefully, they really couldn't find it.

Mu Shi looked at Lin Yan thoughtfully, how did she find out?

They have all come to the front, and they have to search carefully to see them.

Ye Ya pounced on the ground and picked up a wild egg, "It's slippery, it feels very brittle, and it will break when you pinch it."

"Don't squeeze it. If it breaks, you can only eat it raw. Cooked ones are delicious." Lin Yan hurriedly stopped, fearing that Ye Ya would crush the egg.
