Go through the wild and seek life

Chapter 74
Ye likes to eat salted eggs, and the birds in the forest are unlucky.

For more than ten days in a row, the prey brought back by Ye was not only birds but also birds, and of course their eggs.

Rudama began to worry that the birds here would not be extinct!She felt that it was necessary for her to discuss the issue of ecological balance with Ye.

Put the last bird's egg into the wooden barrel and seal it.Rudama looked at the three large wooden barrels lined up in the cave, all the bird eggs that Ye took back were preserved in them.

"Ye! You caught both the bird and the eggs. In the future, some birds will lay eggs, and no eggs will hatch. We will have nothing to eat..."

Ye seemed to have no concept of what Rudama said, but he still knew about birds laying eggs and eggs hatching birds.Frowning, Ye thought about Rudama's words over and over again, and nodded when she thought it made sense.

"Catch eggs, not birds!"

Leave the bird to lay eggs, and he will have eggs forever.

Regarding Ye's idea, Rudama expressed helplessness, "Ye, you can't take all the eggs back, the bird will grow old, get sick and die, you need eggs to hatch the bird, and then the bird will grow up and give birth. Egg, if this continues from generation to generation, so will we..."

Hearing Rudama's words, Ye froze for a moment.

"Old? Dead? Dharma?"

Rudama nodded, "Yes, I will grow old slowly, and I will die when I am too old to do anything."

"Dama, don't die!"

Ye suddenly held Rudama tightly in his arms.

He was very disturbed by Rudama's answer. He thought that as long as he protected her well, she would be with him forever. What is "old"?Why does Dharma say that she herself will become "old" and die?As long as he keeps Dama from becoming "old", she will definitely not die.

"Dama is not old!"

Regarding Ye's answer, Rudama couldn't laugh or cry. He must have regarded "old" as a big monster.

Come to think of it, Ye should have no concept of "old".

One is that he has lived in this world for a short time; furthermore, the survival of the fittest among animals is extremely cruel, and many animals have become the prey of natural enemies before they grow old, or died of injuries or illnesses, so , In the face of injury and illness, night will worry, but he has no concept of "old age and death".

Rudama thought, how is she going to explain that to Ye?
"Ye, not only will I grow old, but you will too..."

"old?"

Ye let Rudama go, and pointed to his nose.

"Well, the night grows old, just like me!"

Rudama nodded.

With a troubled expression on his face, Ye Ze hugged Rudama again, tightly, tightly.

"Dama, Ye, not old!"

Rudama was so strangled by Ye that he couldn't breathe well.

What did she say to a simple guy like Ye that he was old and dead!Let him make a mistake, is this telling him to dig a hole to bury himself?

"Ye, not old, not old, we are not old or dead, to be a thousand-year-old goblin..."

She raised her hand vigorously to scratch his back.If this guy doesn't let go, she will really die, strangled to death by him!

After that, Rudama stopped discussing with Ye, the issue of old age and death. This guy is too sensitive to these two words, and every time he touches them like a wounded child, she thinks it is Ye's extreme lack of affection. normal response.

Although Ye can turn into a leopard, he also has half-human emotions. The long-term lonely life makes him yearn for family affection.Therefore, Ye showed extraordinary importance to Luo Na, Ren and their children, as well as to herself.

There is not much salt brought back in the spring.Rudama discussed with Ye to go to Yanchi again.Ye shook his head and did not agree, he said that the grassland was dangerous.

How can it be dangerous?

Rudama was puzzled.

Ye explained: "Ni, eating beasts."

Rudama realized.After the flood, the grassland should be like a huge swamp. Ye said that it would eat animals, that is, when animals sink into it, they can no longer climb up until they are submerged in it.

However, salt still has to be taken, and time can only be pressed.

After more than 50 days, Ye started to pack his things. He told Rudama that there was no animal-eating mud on the grassland.

Rudama guessed that the water in the swamp should have been evaporated by the violent sunlight.She lived on the grassland for a few days, and she firmly remembered how poisonous the sun was.

Before setting off, Rudama asked Ye to dig two small wooden barrels with thick branches and fill them with the animal oil she refined.Then seal it with a wooden plug and put it in a backpack. The oil can be used to start a fire.She also brought some dried hemp ginger slices.I also brought some of the herbs that Ye Ye gave her when she had a fever last time.There are also food and water, those who go out, these are must-haves.

Finally, they took four large leather bags she had specially sewn to hold salt, and they set out on the road.

This time, I brought a lot of things, but Rudama thought that if I went to the grassland, I could let Ye catch one foot, so she and Ye would not have so much burden.

She also wanted to know how Lorna and Ren were doing, and whether they encountered any provocations from the usurper.Little Silver and Little Mo should have grown up.Where did they hide during the storm and flood?It should migrate like most animals.However, it should have migrated back after such a long time.

Rudama looked at Ye, who was driving behind his back, why didn't he know about migration?Rudama couldn't figure out why Luo Na and Ren didn't teach him.It suddenly occurred to her that every season here is extremely long. The reason why Ye didn't know it was probably because the summer before the heavy rain hit, Ye had already grown up enough to leave them.

However, where the night comes from is still a mystery in Rudama's heart, and he can't be the same as himself, because a certain accident caused the space to be distorted, and he was teleported here.

As soon as he stepped on the border between the grassland and the forest, Rudama began to look for reliable foot strength.

However, the grassland scene at this time is very bleak. When spring comes, most of the fresh and lush green grass is limp on the ground, some are withered and yellow, and some have long been rotten. There are still many puddles on the ground.Rudama knew that these were all caused by the flood.

However, the looming fresh green among the grass blades gives people new life and hope.

There are large groups of staghorn sheep and cowhorn mud horses in spring, but only a small group can be seen at this time.It is not known whether most of them did not migrate back or died in this flood.

But soon, Rudama no longer had the heart to think about these issues.

She found that the carnivorous beasts on the grassland were extremely active at this time, which was very different from their work and rest time. The nocturnal beasts lost their idleness and laziness during the day, and they became restless and warlike. .
