Chapter 51 He seems to have never come back

"Why are their wings clipped?"

Chu Cheng didn't quite understand. These pheasants were originally caught and eaten, so he could just get rid of them all.

"After their wings are clipped, they can't fly high, so they can't escape."

Qin Yao said, and was about to take out a pheasant.

"I come!"

Although the pheasants were timid and not very aggressive, he was afraid that their claws would catch her.

Chu Cheng was worried.

"Okay then, be careful and don't cut any flesh."

Chu Cheng shortened the wings of the pheasants. After the pheasants were released, they wanted to escape, but they could not fly no matter how hard they flew. They could only fly a distance of one or two meters at most, and then they would fall down.

"Aren't we going to take care of them all?"

Qin Yao shook her head, "I want to raise them so that they can lay eggs in the future, and then we will have eggs to eat!"

Chu Cheng has eaten pheasant eggs, but has never raised pheasants. When he sees this kind of animal, he will basically put it into his mouth directly. How can he have the leisure to raise them?

"I think the open space in front of the wooden house can be set aside for raising pheasants."

Qin Yao has already made a plan. She even thought about how to make the chicken coop.

As long as she likes it, Chu Cheng will let her go.

The pheasants are used to wild chickens, so Chu Cheng also made the chicken coop as big as possible. According to Qin Yao, there was also a food trough outside to make it easier for them to eat.

"Then do we need to feed them every day?"

"You have to feed them, but I think the pheasants are very powerful. We just need to drive them into the cage to rest at night, and let them out during the day. The yard is very big, and they can look for food in the yard. "

Chu Cheng didn't take the pheasant seriously, and he would eat it if it died. However, if Qin Yao cared about it, he would care more about it.

After settling the pheasant matter, Chu Cheng went out to hunt, saying that he wanted to get a skin for Qin Yao.

Qin Yao told him not to worry. After all, animal skins are not easy to get. These animals are very ferocious.

Chu Cheng was thinking the same thing. What if he found the animal skin and Qin Yao went back to the cabin to sleep?
Then wouldn’t he be unable to hold a delicate woman?

Although he was reluctant, he also knew that the weather was getting colder and Qin Yao would not be able to do it without animal skins during the winter.

Chu Cheng thought a lot. He wanted to get this animal skin for Qin Yao no matter what. As for when to give it to her, Chu Cheng already had a plan in mind.

Wait until the weather gets really cold.

After Chu Cheng left, Qin Yao had been thinking about grains. Now she was preparing for autumn. If she forcibly removed the grains to germinate and then planted them back, it would definitely not work. The weather would not allow it.

She also heard from Chu Cheng that the winter here was very cold and it was not the time to plant grains at all.

But now she can get the seeds back and dry them, so that in the spring she can use them to germinate.

Qin Yao was so happy. She thought that she would tell Chu Cheng this when he came back. When it grows, she would give him a taste of rice. He would definitely like it.

But Qin Yao waited inside the wooden house. When the sky turned dark and stars appeared on the horizon, Chu Cheng had not returned yet.

She was afraid that she wouldn't hear Chu Cheng's return, so she ran to the cave, but there was still no one there.

She couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Chu Cheng usually goes out to hunt and will come back in about half a day. He has never even come back for dinner like today.

Qin Yao waited for a while, but still didn't see him. She paced back anxiously.

Could it be that he encountered some danger?

After all, animals are ferocious, so it’s not necessarily true...

But what if it wasn't the case? Chu Cheng was just stuck because of something else.

Qin Yao didn't dare to scare herself.I can only wait uneasily.

But as she waited, she felt more and more something was wrong, so she quickly walked out of the cave and ran into the tribe.

She remembered that Chu Cheng's friend seemed to be called Fu Hai. She wanted to find him and asked Chu Cheng where he usually hunted. She was very worried.

But she had no idea which thatched hut Fuhai lived in. When she saw one, she poked her head inside. Some people were doing indescribable things and she was so frightened that she shivered.

"Do you know where Fuhai lives?"

"No...don't know..."

"Have you seen Fuhai?"

"No...no..."

The response made Qin Yao's heart become colder and colder.

"What's wrong? Qin Yao, you're not sleeping this late at night. What are you looking for?!"

Qi Yi was about to go to sleep, so he came out to take a look when he heard some movement, but he didn't expect to see Qin Yao with an anxious face.

"Do you know where Fuhai lives?!"

Qin Yao grabbed Qi Yi's hand and was extremely anxious.

"I know, I'll take you there!"

Qi Yi looked behind Qin Yao, but did not see Chu Cheng's figure, and seemed to have noticed something was wrong.

She didn't dare to delay, so she took Qin Yao to find Fuhai.

Fuhai was tired all day and fell asleep lying on the haystack as soon as it got dark.

I never imagined that I would be woken up by someone while I was having a sweet dream. I opened my eyes impatiently and was about to scold the person when I saw a woman with red eyes.

"Sister-in-law...sister-in-law?!"

Fuhai rubbed his eyes. He couldn't believe that a woman would come to his house this night, and she was a very beautiful one.

"Have you ever met Chu Cheng?"

When Fuhai heard Chu Cheng's name, he woke up from his drowsiness, "What's wrong? I didn't see it!"

"Then do you know where he usually goes to hunt?"

Fuhai touched his head and said, "Brother Cheng has many places to hunt. I can't say for sure. Sister-in-law, what happened?"

"Chu Cheng went hunting this afternoon and hasn't come back yet. This has never happened before. I'm very worried about him. Did something happen to him?!"

Qin Yao's eyes were red and she was about to shed tears as she spoke.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry! It's common for Chu Cheng to go out hunting and not come back. Before you two were not on good terms, Chu Cheng often went out alone. Sometimes it was normal for him to come back only once every three to five days. Don't worry about it first. Be anxious, maybe he just walked a little further today and didn't have time to come back, so he just spent the night outside. You go back first and wait, don't worry."

Qin Yao felt that what Fu Hai said seemed to make sense, but she still felt uneasy.

"If Brother Cheng hasn't come back early tomorrow morning, I will take someone to look for him. Do you think that's okay?"

Fuhai had already talked about it for this reason, and she had no reason to persist anymore. After all, it was such a late night and others had to rest.

Qin Yao nodded, thanked him and went back.

Qi Yi comforted her for a while, and Qin Yao asked her to go back first. She was not safe as a woman this late at night.

After returning to the cave, Qin Yao kept waiting for Chu Cheng to come back. Maybe because she was too tired, she fell asleep in a daze in the middle of the night.

When she suddenly woke up, it was already light on the horizon.

There was no sign of Chu Cheng in the cave or wooden house, and it seemed that he had never even come back.
