Chapter 310 Pears Made of Spiritual Water
"呱~呱" Hong Ying landed in front of him.

Knowing the sound of birdsong dispelled some of the fear in my heart.

Wen Shu looked at it eagerly, and asked, "Are you all right?"

Hong Ying looked at her inexplicably, not understanding the meaning of her question.Wen Shu touched the front and back of it in various ways to confirm that it was all right, and then he was slightly relieved.

"Where is the caught chicken? Let's take it and change places."

Following Hong Ying to the place where the chickens were piled up, he saw that on the original grass, the corpses of pheasants had been piled up into a hill.After a rough estimate, there are thirty or forty of them.

Out of awe and fear of the forest, Wen Shu didn't stay long, threw those pheasants into the storage basket, and left with Hong Ying.

However, when he came out of the peach forest, the red shadow in midair seemed to be blocked by something, and cried out eagerly.

Wen Shu, who had just left the Taolin, turned his head when he heard the voice, and saw the red shadow hovering at the boundary above the Taolin, as if he was trapped, and rushed back to the Taolin.

"Come down," she called into the air.

Hearing the sound, Hong Ying obediently descended from the sky and landed beside her.Wen Shu took a deep breath, picked up one of its wings, and strode forward with it like a child.

Nothing unusual, they got out of Taolin very smoothly.

Wen Shu heaved a sigh of relief, and looked back at the border of Taolin, wondering why this happened?

Hongying's two abnormal behaviors proved not to be her hallucinations. There is indeed some kind of invisible obstacle at the border of the forest.But why were these obstacles useless to her?Whether she went in or out, she was not affected in the slightest.

After thinking about it, she let go of Hongying's hand, turned around and entered the forest again, and then called Hongying to come in by herself.

Sure enough, the red shadows outside didn't seem to have heard her words, they only stared at her with a pair of big round eyes, with a confused expression on their faces, and after a while, they began to flap their wings anxiously.

Wen Shu understands, it can't hear her voice outside, and it can't see her, otherwise it wouldn't be the reaction.

In order to appease Hongying, she immediately left the forest, but the doubts in her heart continued to expand.

Leading Hongying across the sea of ​​flowers to the opposite apricot forest, after telling it to continue catching pink-tailed pheasants in the forest, Wen Shu went west again, trying to get out of the apricot forest and look outside.

However, the apricot grove is larger than the peach grove, and it may be that the place where she first landed was very close to the exit of the peach grove. In short, she walked in the apricot grove for a quarter of an hour without going out.

And Hong Ying was probably also frightened by what happened just now, and followed her step by step. Basically, she only took twenty or thirty steps, and it caught two pheasants and followed her.

Wen Shu didn't force it, in fact, she was also afraid.

This apricot grove looks much bigger than the peach grove, and she herself doesn't know when she will be able to go out, and the time to go out is less than three quarters of an hour, so it is indeed safer for Hongying to follow her.

Otherwise, when the time comes, she won't have time to return to the original place, and Hong Ying will be trapped here.

One person and one bird groped forward, and walked for about two quarters of an hour before reaching the edge of the apricot forest.

At this time, there was only a quarter of an hour left before going out, and the number of pink-tailed pheasants handed in by Hongying had already reached 68.

Outside the apricot grove is still a long seaweed of flowers. Wen Shu thought it was pretty before, but now he suddenly recalled it. Could this sea of ​​flowers be used to separate the boundary between the two forests?

There is one outside the peach forest, and there is another here, how could it be such a coincidence.

Because time was short, she was eager to know what was in the next forest, so she didn't let Hong Ying try to see if the apricot forest had some barrier like the peach forest.

Leading Hongying through the sea of ​​flowers and entering the next forest, I feel white everywhere as soon as I enter.

The branches were covered with white and large pears, not the pale yellow pears with thick skin that are common in the real world.The pears in this forest are white and almost transparent, and the skin is so thin that it seems to have no skin.

Wen Shu picked one and tasted it, the flesh melted in the mouth, it was as soft as taking a bite of sweet juice.And the taste of the sweet juice is not greasy at all, but a kind of sweetness that is clear to the bone.

One sip is like eating a bowl of ice-cold water in the dog days, or smelling the mint fragrance of a sleepy person.

Thinking of the Shan Hai Jing saying that this mountain has spiritual veins, Wen Shu instantly felt as if the spiritual vein water had turned into a pear, and every time he took a sip, he was tasting the spiritual vein water. After eating, even his breathing became a little lighter.

How could she miss such a good thing, so she naturally took out all the remaining three sacks in the storage basket and started picking pears.

She worked hard at picking, and Hong Ying next to her was not idle, and continued to do her old job of catching chickens.

The chickens in this grove were different from the chickens in the previous two groves.Although it is mainly green feathers, the beaks and tails of the "chickens" in this forest are white, and they do not look for food on the ground, but stand on the branches like birds, directly pecking at the fruits on the trees .

Of course, the body shape and size are also much smaller than the pheasant before the trip. After all, it may be more appropriate to call it a "bird".

Wen Shu thought to herself, if she didn't bring the red shadow, she would never be able to catch these "birds".Because they are not only small in size, but also very responsive, completely different from the previous two types of chickens.

Fortunately, Hongying is not only a bird, but also a leader in hunting birds, so after several contests, he still has the upper hand.Before leaving, twelve white-tailed wild "birds" were given to her.

When the knock on the door came, Wen Shu was stirring the chicken soup in the pottery urn with a spoon, wondering if it was stewed, but she couldn't wait to taste it.

God knows, back in the real world last night, how much she wanted to rush to the kitchen to make a taste!If it wasn't for fear of waking her father up, she would have stewed the "pheasant" last night.

After finally surviving until dawn, she immediately ran to boil water and poke the chicken, so now, when people in the alley got up, her chicken was about to be cooked.

Hearing the knock on the door, Wen Shu was startled, and thought: Who is it?Visit early in the morning.She has been in the kitchen for a long time, but she has no idea how delicious her stewed chicken soup is!
After pulling out two pieces of firewood from the stove, so as not to burn the pot while talking, Wen Shu put down the spoon and left the kitchen.However, when she walked out of the kitchen, she found that the courtyard door had been opened, and her father was talking with people outside in his clothes.

Seeing many ladies standing outside the door, Father Wen was a little dazed for a while, and came over after hearing the intention.

Yes, what did Ah Ning cook early in the morning?

"I'm just getting up too, so I'll go and ask. If I cook something to eat, I'll send some to everyone later."

"No, no, we're just here to ask, there's no other purpose." The ladies said, seeing Wen Shu coming out of the kitchen, they hurriedly greeted: "Hey, the girl is out, girl, come quickly."

"Good morning, aunts." Wen Shu stepped forward to say hello.

Mrs. Guo smiled and said: "Whoever has you, girl, it's all stewed with meat now, what are you doing? Why are you so fragrant?"

"Is it chicken? It smells like this to me." Mrs. Li, who said it was chicken, asked.

"No, there must be fruit, I can smell fruit." Mrs. Wang said.

Wen Shu didn't expect that they were here to ask this question, so she was startled and said with a smile, "Aunt Li's good nose is indeed chicken."

"Look, I said it was chicken." Mrs. Li looked at Mrs. Wang proudly.

"Impossible, I clearly smell fruity." Mrs. Wang frowned,

When Wen Shu heard this, she hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Aunt Wang is right, I added fruit to stew together." In fact, she didn't add fruit to the chicken soup at all, but when they asked this question, she just responded accordingly.

However, judging from the reactions of these ladies, this chicken soup does have a fruity aroma.

It's just that she has been standing in the kitchen for a long time, and she can't smell this subtlety anymore.

"Look." Lady Wang trembled immediately.

She said she couldn't smell it wrong.

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Mrs. Guo quickly changed the subject, and said to Wenshu, "How can you come up with such a method, you child, stewed chicken with fruits, but the smell is really delicious, no Do you know what kind of fruit it is?"

"It can't be a kumquat," someone said.

Wen Shu paused, shook his head and said no, but he didn't say what it was, but changed the topic and said: "I guess this meeting will be ready, if the aunts don't mind, I'll go and give you some to taste." taste."

"Hey, don't, don't, we're just here to ask." Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Li, who were gambling, said hurriedly.

Although the two of them are not rich, they are well-to-do families in the alley. Although the chicken soup smells really delicious, they came here to ask the reason. If they pick it up now, others will think they are asking for food Woolen cloth.
