Yoyo Farming

Chapter 6

When the sky is bright, you can see this mountain road, with lush grass and trees on both sides. In Fu Niu's view, there are many piles of bright fires.After walking for a while, I took it for granted that there were wild fruits on the tree. Fu Niu climbed up the tree without much effort, stretched out her hand and picked an apricot-like wild fruit, rubbed it on her body and took a bite. It was indeed an apricot. It's delicious to eat.Fu Niu opened the cloth bag and started picking apricots.

There are so many apricots on this tree, I don't know why no one came to pick them, maybe it's because it's too far away.Walking from home to this mountain road, I feel like my legs have been filled with lead.The greedy man picked half of the bag at once, only to realize one thing, he couldn't carry a bag of apricots back to feed You Shuan.This is just a fruit after a meal.Besides, eating too many apricots can hurt people.

Put the cloth bag in your hand on a thick branch. The tree is not too tall, and if you throw it down, the overripe fruit will rot.When Fu Niu decided to go down the tree first and then carry the bag, she suddenly saw a black object on the tree in front of her, and she couldn't help being elated. It turned out to be a bird's nest, and she could see a little white inside, like There are bird eggs.

It was so wonderful, Fu Niu jumped down from the tree in anger, touched an egg in the bird's nest, and took off six white eggs at once, and looked at them happily in her hands After a while, it was put into my arms.Then I got half a bag of apricots from the tree, carried them on my shoulders, and held some apricots in my hand, and went into the mountain while eating the apricots in my hand.

The forest is really quiet, occasionally there are only a few birdsongs, and Fu Niu, who has been on guard against big beasts, walks for a while, stops to rest, and then takes out half a piece of cornmeal pancake in her arms to eat, feeling even thirstier. no.It was only then that I realized how stupid I was, and I made half a bag of things to carry on my back without much trouble.Just when I was thinking about where to put it and store it for a while, I seemed to hear the sound of gurgling water in my ears.

When thirsty people hear the sound of water, they immediately regain their energy, and don't even think about putting down their pockets. Following the sound of water, they still have to walk along the mountain road that looks like a road. Of course, it will be slow to find it.I didn’t find the stream, so I saw a bamboo forest first. Although I was thirsty, I still didn’t forget that I came to the mountain to find food. Fu Niu cheered, feeling like her throat was on fire, swallowed the second cheer, walked to the bamboo forest and put it on her shoulders Looking around in the bamboo forest, I saw a bamboo whip and a few bamboo shoots, although the shoots were a bit thick.

Folding off bamboo to make digging tools, the bare-handed Fu Niu finally had a tool to use. She dug a few bamboo shoots, and then dug some more bamboo whips. When the spring bamboo shoots are old, the bamboo sticks taste fresh and tender. There is oil and salt, even if there is no meat.

Fu Niu refrained herself from thinking about salt, and it was fine to boil the bamboo whip in water at home, as long as she didn't think about salt at this time, everything was fine.After digging more than a dozen bamboo whips, Fu Niu found that she had made a mistake again. She was going into the mountain, hoping to get something to exchange for some money to buy utensils. It was probably noon now, and she only got half a bag of mountain apricots. , more than a dozen bamboo whips, but fortunately, there are six bird eggs in his arms to save himself a little bit of face.

And her throat and eyes could be on fire, Fu Niu didn't lose anything, she added more than a dozen bamboo whips, and a few spring bamboo shoots that looked a little old.Put these things in your pockets and carry them on your shoulders before continuing to find water.After walking a few steps, I found myself stupid, so I don’t need to carry it, don’t I?I can't find a suitable cave to put it in, but I can put it in a tree.

Find a shorter tree on the side of the road, step on the rocks, put the cloth bag on the thick branch, and then hold it up with your hands, it will not fall down, and the relaxed Fu Niu pricked up her ears and started to look for water up.

When the sound of the water became louder, Fu Niu became more excited. When she reached the pool, she cheered regardless of her throat getting angry, but the only thing that came out was a hoarse voice, and she almost couldn't make a sound.Throwing to the water's edge, scooping up a handful of water and smiling, water is the source of life.

I drank it into my throat for the first time, and I really felt that this was the happiest thing in the world. After drinking a lot of water, the strength of my whole body recovered all of a sudden, and then I sat by the water and began to look at the pool. It's not so big, it should be a lake, and on the other side, there are only faint green hills.

A little further on the surface of the water, the water seems to be faintly green, and there are more than a dozen large fishes as long as a foot swimming in it.real!It was a big fish as long as a foot, and Fu Niu couldn't help feeling excited again.No problem, we can do swimming too.Just swim over and the fish will run away.

Sitting by the water and thinking about it, Fu Niu picked a few hard branches from the tree beside her, and she could use her hands to grind one end as much as possible, or grind it slowly on a stone. Anyway, I got a few fish today. Entering the mountain is considered complete.Seeing that the sun was a little bit in the middle, Fu Niu slowly sharpened the hard branches on the rocks, held them in the pose of a javelin, and threw them into the water at once, only to see the water surface churning. After the waves passed, a fish with branches tied to its body floated on the water.

Although you can't fly flowers and pick leaves, you can also stick fish with branches. This skill is really not for nothing.Fu Niu swam over and took the fish in her hand. It was a big white fish, and it was not small, at least a foot and a half long.Bringing the fish back to the shore, Fu Niu picked up a thinner stone slice and cut open the fish's belly by the water. If there was a fire, she would roast one first and eat it.Thinking about it this way, when I think about it, I need to get some firewood when I go back.

After a while, the fish on the surface of the water gathered together again. In this way, Fu Niu caught four fish at once. If it wasn't for the fact that it was already mid-afternoon, she would be reluctant to go back.

With four bird eggs in her arms and four fish on the branch, Fu Niu couldn't help but walked back humming, found the tree where she put her bag, took the bag off the tree, and smashed a thick branch with a stone to go home As firewood, I originally wanted to put everything on the branches and use it as a trailer to go home, but some roads were not smooth when I came here, so I could only drag the thick branches with one hand, and hold the bag on my shoulder with the other. There are a few fish hanging from the branches on the arms, and some bamboo sticks are picked up when walking through the bamboo forest. It is always useful to go home.

There was no place to put the bamboo at the moment, so I pinned it to the belt behind her. Fu Niu smiled wryly and thought to herself, if I fall at this time, I can only get up straight up and down.When I came back, I was hungry and tired. I couldn’t eat any more apricots, so I had to bear it. I went out of the mountain when it was dark. Going back, the few bamboos can be carried on the shoulders and go back.
