Chapter 50 Catching Artemisia Birds

At dawn, Lu Wa and Xiaoji came running back and forth, Yang Xi called out: "Sister Su Ya", she just came back to her senses, and wiped away her tears embarrassingly.

"Are you here?" I forgot that we agreed to catch the artemisia bird today, but Chi, who was supposed to accompany her, is no longer by my side, so I calmed down and said, "Come here so early, have you had breakfast?"

Luwa was the most sensible, and nodded: "We ate, and we came here after seeing off the exchange team." His father was also in the exchange team, and he hadn't seen him for a long time.

Su Ya was not in the mood to eat breakfast, so she simply grilled the meat and finished the breakfast with boiling water. She carried two panniers on her back. bone knife.

When they came to the wormwood bushes behind the tribe, Su Ya adjusted her mood. She just went out for a few days, patted her face with cold water by the river, and chatted with a few cubs: "Later, we will compare who hunts the most!" , to reward delicious spicy artemisia bird at night?"

Yang Xi became happy, clapped his hands and cheered: "Okay, okay." Last night, he ate the smoked bird that Luwa brought to them.

Luwa covered Yangxi's mouth, and warned in a low voice: "Shouting so loudly, Artemisia will be scared away." Yangxi pressed his short fingers to his mouth, and said softly, "I see."

Everyone laughed softly, and Su Ya's depressed mood improved: "Then let's start."

Luwa had great strength, and he swung the bone knife quickly and fiercely. The bird flew up and spread its wings, and the sound of screaming and fleeing was everywhere. Lasso to the side.

Xiaoji looked at Luwa adoringly, staring in his eyes: "Luwa is so powerful, I want to catch him too." Yangxi followed up noisily.

Su Ya didn't kill with a bone knife. She didn't have Luwa's strength and speed. She listened carefully to the sound while holding a pannier. There was a huge piece of wormwood, and the edge could not be seen. Walking a little farther, you could hear the small spread of wings. Or chattering.

At this time, when the big back basket is thrown over to cover it, Artemisia birds are often caught, some only catch the bird's legs or wings, press it hard, and there is a fluttering sound, which means they are caught. Now the weather is cold, and many Artemisia birds nestled in the haystacks and reacted much slower.

Now my strength is much stronger, and I can run quickly in the grass. I am a little more careful because I am afraid of snakes.

By the way, I also picked up all kinds of bird eggs that I saw. There were a lot of bird eggs, and they were picked up very quickly. Su Ya thought that people from the tribe had never come to hunt Artemisia birds, so they were so easy to catch.

I was very lucky, and even caught a gray-winged bird. The big gray-winged bird flapped its wings in the back basket, and the vibration was very strong. winged bird.

After thinking about it for a while, I figured out that there are all kinds of big eggs in the grass, so there must be big birds.

"Suya, so you are really here, what are you doing here?" Luna's loud voice came.Yang Xi made a gesture of shutting up, Luna took a few small steps, and followed the gesture to shut up.

Luwa happened to mention the artemisia birds, "We are catching artemisia birds, and Su Ya can cook artemisia bird meat, which is delicious." He pointed out a long string of artemisia bird traps to Luna.

Luna soon joined in, with a jumpy nature, she broke a stick with a thick wrist at the side, and jumped around, and quickly killed a wormwood bird: "Look, it's so weak. "

Su Ya laughed a few words in a muffled voice, it's no wonder you can stand that stick, look at that clump of grass that was completely broken off, and a pool of broken bird eggs.

Everyone became addicted to catching artemisia birds. When they were tired, they took a rest until two or three o'clock in the afternoon. Su Ya was so hungry that she saw that everyone was waving their arms slowly. She knew that everyone was tired, so she told everyone to stop. I will go back after the next break.

"Sister Su Ya, are we not going to catch it? There are still a lot of bushes left." Yang Xi was puzzled, why didn't we catch it, there is still one over there.

Wipe the sweat off his forehead, and help Yangxi wipe the sweat. Don’t get me wrong, he is tired from jumping and playing, and occasionally he will help everyone mention the Artemisia bird. It's not good, I'm scared and don't run away.

"Su Ya, let's clean it up. Do you want to clean it up and take it back?" Luna put dozens of screaming artemisia birds into the back basket, and tied dozens of them outside. Su Ya grabbed Lu who was still tied up. Na, "We are the rest, go back and boil hot water to pluck the hair."

There are still a lot of them left, there are hundreds of them, and it may not be so easy to catch in the future. The situation of today and yesterday was that the artemisia birds were caught before they could react in a daze.

After all, primitive people have never caught them, and it was a disaster for them to meet Su Ya, so they decided not to catch them anymore. In the grass.

Among them, two gray-winged birds and three dodos were caught. The dodos and gray-winged birds were about the same size, about [-] kg, but they had no hair on their bodies. They looked like hairless birds, which were very ugly.

Luna and Luwa carried two baskets on their backs, and each carried two strings, seven or eight in each string, and they were not very heavy.Su Ya carried two strings in her hand, Yang Xi and Xiaoji each took the rest and carried them back.

Going back to the cave, Su Ya roasted the leftover barbecue meat last night and added stewed soup, and added a small meal with everyone. She was really hungry. Everyone didn't refuse, and they all ate. You can eat more barbecue, so let's put it at the bottom first.

Su Ya boiled two large pots of water, Lu Wa was in charge of killing the birds, Su Ya and Lu Na were in charge of plucking the hairs, Yang Xi and Xiao Ji were in charge of adding water and pouring water, and the division of labor and cooperation of several people worked well.

Finally, the wormwood meat that was packed was stacked with four big leaves, and the gray-winged bird and the dodo were placed on top of the big leaves. In the eyes of Luna and Luwa, they were very few, but Su Ya seemed really big. pile.

Shuang came over and asked the cubs and Luna to eat barbecue, and everyone stayed here to eat. Su Ya smiled and said that it would be lively if the cubs ate here, so Shuang had to put some barbecue bring here.

I took out some Artemisia birds smoked a few days ago from the cave, washed half a pot of dried mushrooms, braised a large pot of spicy Artemisia birds, stewed mushroom gray-winged bird soup, and steamed a bowl of custard for everyone. Fry a dozen pieces of pasta.

Everyone began to eat dinner chattering, the only night that Chi was missing, Su Ya withdrew her hand while holding the soup that she wanted to pass to Chi, oops, she forgot again, smiled and continued to chat with everyone, "Everyone, eat more, today It's been a hard day."

"Yeah, it's really delicious, I want to eat more." Yang Xi gnawed on the Artemisia bird meat and swallowed the egg custard very busy.

Later, there was a lot of barbecue left, and I ate everything Su Ya prepared. Seeing the popularity of the food she made, Su Ya was really happy. It was so lively to have everyone to eat with me tonight.
