through the absurd and primitive

Chapter 21 Perfect Life (4)

"It was approaching noon, and several women were busy packing up the prey brought back by the men, while the men were sitting in the yard processing the hides, while happily chatting about hunting.

After a while, the dishes came to the table. Li Mo asked Aman to make a big long wooden table so that everyone could sit in the yard and eat. Seeing the big guys happy, Li Mo bit the eagle white hand Come fish.

"!" Li Mo ate a few mouthfuls of fish, and suddenly frowned.

"Yingbai, is this the fish you caught?" Li Mo asked.

"Well, go a little further south, where there is a big river." Yingbai paused, thinking that the fish was not tasty, and quickly rowed the fish into his bowl.

"Lu Hua, did you make this fish?"

Seeing Li Mo's serious face, Lu Hua couldn't help being startled.

"Yes, ah, yes, I did it, what's the matter, Appa?"

"What did you use to make it?" Li Mo recalled every detail that happened when she taught Lu Hua to make fish.

"Why, what's the matter, I just cut it with stone slices. Is it because the fish is hard to eat?"

Ignoring everyone looking at her nervously, Li Mo started to search for the fish, and then kept trying. When she saw a small red stone, Li Mo stopped.

She picked up the little rock and licked it.

"!" God!When Li Mo tasted the copper rust on the fish, she was in a daze. She had used the stone slices for cutting the fish many times, but she never tasted the copper rust. Only when she cut the fish scales today, did she You can taste the copper rust, which proves to be the problem of this fish.

Although Li Mo didn't think that little rock looked like iron, but to her surprise, it actually smelled like iron!
"Yingbai, is there such a small red stone in the river with this fish?"

"This..." Ying Bai actually didn't pay attention to this matter, he was just thinking about Li Mo at that time, so he just caught fish quickly.

"Yes!" The silent Dahe opened his mouth. This was the first time that Li Mo seriously looked at this silent but steady middle-aged man with a scar on his face.

"There are many red stones like this in the river." Da He thought for a while and said.

"Great, Yingbai, we may have found a treasure! In the afternoon, take me to that river to have a look!"

"Apa, what is the purpose of this little red stone?" Green Flower asked curiously, seeing that she was not to blame.

"Guys, if this little red stone is what I think it is, sharp weapons will no longer be a problem. It will be stronger than any weapon made of stone or wood! It's hard and even Even stones can't be broken."

The people present were stunned by what Li Mo said, and they all opened their eyes wide!

What is the concept of a weapon stronger than stone and wood!Can't even break a stone.

"Li Mo Li Mo, let's go and see right away!" Ah Qing was already excited and wanted to follow.

"Okay, let's discuss it after dinner, but I can't guarantee whether it's what I imagined. Come, let's eat."

Even though he said this, Li Mo still had great joy like everyone else, iron!Even if it is copper, it is a huge discovery. With such a hard material, iron pans, iron knives and various cold weapons are afraid that they cannot be made.

After lunch, Li Mo asked Ying Bai, Da He, Batu, Da Zhuang and Ah Qing to go together.Aman and the other two men were left to guard the valley. Yan originally had objections and wanted to help, but Li Mo said that if the red stone was useful, Aman and Yan would be used a lot. Then he nodded and returned to the valley.

When Li Mo took out the car, Ah Qing and the others were amazed when they saw it.Li Mo thought, if there are really a lot of red stones, it would be fine to use a cart to bring them back.

The red stone river is under a remote bush far to the south, and the car can only stop at the edge of the bush.Leaving Dahe to watch the car, everyone else went down to the bank of the river.

The river channel tens of meters wide was crystal clear, and the depth should be as high as Li Mo's knees.Occasionally, there were some fish plopping on the river surface, but what Li Mo noticed more was that there were many such red stones under the river bed.

Li Mo asked Ying Bai and the others to make some shovels.Li Mo caught it with a wooden bucket on the bank, and Ah Qing ran to the place where Dahe was guarding the car, and let Dahe carry it up.Everyone works together.

Batu smiled and said, "Li Mo, I can do this little thing, just let Ying Bai and Da Zhuang go to the shore to help you carry the barrel."

Yingbai frowned, "No need, what have you done alone, could it be that you can fish up all the stones from the bottom of the river?"

"How do you know, get out of here if you don't have the strength, there's no need to babble here." Batu gave Yingbai a sideways look. Why does Li Mo like this cruel man in front of him? She is more than a thousand times better than him. hundred times.

"That's enough for you guys. Look at Da Zhuang who has filled two buckets. You haven't started yet." The corners of Li Mo's mouth twitched. The two guys were bickering all the way down. It was really noisy, Eagle Bai has always been gentle and considerate, so why is he so at odds with Batu?

Only then did the two stop talking and began to scoop up stones.

"Ah Qing, when you get tired, tell me, I'll change it with you."

"It's okay, Li Mo, I can do it." Ah Qing grinned, showing her white teeth.

Perhaps Ah Qing has been positioned as a "wife", so Li Mo always feels that he should be protected like Lu Hua and the others, but forgets that Ah Qing was an iron-blooded man when he was living alone .

When the red stones were half full, Li Mo called to stop.Because she is not sure about the real use of these stones yet, it is better to use some of them first.

On the way back, Li Mo sat in the car, Ying Bai and Da He stepped on the car, Da Zhuang Ah Qing and Batu walked by the back door, helping push the car by the way.

The places they passed were all uneven mountains, and the scenery was not the same as that outside the valley.Li Mo looked around curiously, asking Batu from time to time.

After all, the car relies on manpower, the stones are heavy, and the terrain is difficult to walk, so Yingbai changed the road.But the car is always stop and go, which is a little difficult.

"Okay, let's stop the meeting first. You are also tired, Batu Dazhuang, you go and replace Yingbai and the others. Ah Qing, you sit down, I will go down for a walk."

"Li Mo, sit down." Ah Qing and Batu shouted.

"It's okay, I also want to go for a walk." Li Mo jumped out of the car after laughing, closed the curtain, and walked to Ah Qing's side.

Although the road Li Mo and the others took was a bit far away, fortunately there were no ferocious large animals. Ying Bai once said that they had encountered big bears and tigers. Fortunately, they were all good hunters and knew how to avoid ferocious animals.

Li Mo is always curious about this primitive forest. She looks at the gorgeous wild fruits from time to time, and asks about the types of eagle white plants. Of course, when she asks, she looks cute like a bunny. Useful.

"Li Mo Li Mo, look, we have eaten this kind of fruit before. It's just a bit unpalatable, I miss it so much." Ah Qing picked up a palm-sized egg fruit and showed it to Li Mo .

Li Mo watched curiously as Ah Qing opened the inside. Seeing that the hard skin was broken, Li Mo narrowed her eyes, took a sip, and couldn't help but look up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

This texture, this texture, this taste.Isn't it just soybeans? Great God of time travel, shouldn't we talk about it?Li Mo couldn't stop crying in her heart.

"Ah Qing, after eating this kind of fruit, are you all right?" Li Mo was still a little worried.

"It's okay, we often bake it when we're hungry." Ah Qing immediately stuffed one into his mouth, wishing to prove his words were true immediately.

"Yingbai, are there any other fruits nearby?" Li Mo asked Yingbai behind him.

"Yes, they are fruits that grow on high places, Mo'er, do you want to pick some?"

"Dahe, Yingbai, please help pick all these fruits. This is a good thing. Batu! Batu, please stop for a while." Li Mo shouted forward.

"Li Mo, can this be delicious?" Ah Qing's eyes glowed when he remembered the bitter taste of the food he ate before.

"Well, that's right, go and pick more, and I'll make some delicious ones for you to taste when I get back." Li Mo picked up the fruit with a smile on her face. Soybeans grow in such a fruit, it's just like blooming.There are a lot of soybeans in one fruit, just break open.

When everyone was picking fruit, Li Mo also found a small yellow wild fruit that grew on the surface of the ground. After tasting it, it tasted sweet. After asking Yingbai whether it was poisonous or edible, the small wild fruit was small again. Li Mo unceremoniously dug out all the fifteen small wild fruits, including mud and roots.

When we set off again, the car was already fully loaded. Li Mo pushed the car, feeling very happy. There was another kind of thing to get, and it was so easy to get soybeans. As a southerner, this soybean is a good one. something.
