After living on a desert island, they all plotted evil against me.

"Ah..."

He had never eaten this kind of food, but his instinctive trust made the little leopard immediately open his mouth and bite off a piece.

Feeling the strange taste in its mouth, it subconsciously swallowed it into its stomach.

It was soft and dry, and the texture was completely different from the meat I had eaten before.

Confused by this taste, the little leopard began to lie down next to the fire with only white embers and carefully licked the food given by his elder friend.

The more he eats, the more curious he becomes about this kind of food that he can lick with his tongue and then scrape off a layer of it and roll it into his mouth...

"Well……"

Hearing the cry of the little leopard, he groaned to the spirit shadow and then woke up.

Sitting up, she looked at Xiang Wanying with a sleepy expression on her face.

Faced with such a lovely expression on her eldest daughter's side, Xiang Wanying couldn't help but purse her lips and reveal a thick smile.

"What's the matter?" She asked Lingying in a low voice, her mind still a little confused: "Sister Wanying, what time is it now?"

"Hmm... about... eight o'clock?" He made up a time casually and said with a smile to Xiang Wanying, "Miss, it's time for you to get up."

"Well...I know." He sat and squinted his eyes for a while, then Xiang Lingying realized that he was on a desert island.

Sighed slightly.

Then she leaned her whole body against the wall.

Over the past few days, Xiang Lingying has gradually regarded the residence on the desert island as home.

Now every morning when she wakes up, she thinks she is sleeping in her room...

Reaching out and touching the bamboo bed under his buttocks, Xiang Lingying said to Xiang Wanying who was putting a plate of taro on the bamboo table: "Sister Wanying, when I go home, can I change the bed to a bamboo one?" ?”

"No, I guess I can't make it in terms of budget." Picking up a piece of taro, Xiang Wanying replied: "Our family stipulates that each person's annual expenses cannot exceed the minimum poverty allowance!"

"Hey……"

Sighing deeply, Xiang Lingyingma slipped out of bed and went outside to wash up.

The conversation between master and servant also reached the ears of Song Shuyao and Zhao Yiran who had just woken up.

The two of them knew this famous family rule of the Xiang family.

So they didn't ask any more questions, they just got out of bed quickly, then ran to the taro field and started washing up.

Seeing his companion going out, Xiang Lingying silently got out of bed and followed behind, leaving only his maid to have breakfast in advance in the bamboo house.

After breakfast, the four people from the mountainside shelter sat outside the corridor together and watched the rainy weather.

"With such a heavy rain, I guess there will be no goats, right?" Song Shuyao's original plan was to go down the mountain to see the situation in the goat jungle today.

But it's raining heavily outside at the moment.

Although it does not meet the standard of heavy rain, it is definitely above heavy rain.

Frankly speaking, she was not too willing to go down the mountain in this weather.

Chapter 2 Sixty: Sneaky Men and Women

When it rains, the roads in the mountains will be wet and rotten, and it is easy to fall and get dirty all over.

"Well, let's start baking bricks today, and then check the traps and wait until the rain subsides?"

Zhao Yiran understood her friend's reluctance to go down the mountain, so she suggested it.

Song Shuyao naturally nodded vigorously to Zhao Yiran's suggestion.

Xiang Wanying and Xiang Lingying also had no objections at this moment.

Because no matter it is Xiang Wanying, Xiang Lingying or Zhao Yiran and Song Shuyao, the four of them are not very willing to go out on a rainy day.

Unless there are unavoidable circumstances, such as the previous shelter being short of food and having to go out.

But for now, with the food collected by Song Shuyao, Zhao Yiran and others yesterday, they don't have to go out in the rain for at least two days.

After some discussion, the plan for the day changed from "collecting food and burning bricks" to "burning bricks"

As for the most convenient way to batch-fire mud bricks, Zhang Liu didn't have time to test it because it took too long.

Therefore, he did not leave a complete plan.

Now four girls walked into Bamboo House No. [-].

Looking at the mud bricks all over the floor, they all felt that they were wrong.

Compared to Xiang Wanying who just came back yesterday, she just started thinking about the brick-burning plan today.

Song Shuyao was cleaning the pig pen the day before yesterday and thinking about how to bake bricks.

"How about we just lay the charcoal on the bottom and then put these mud bricks on top to burn?"

In accordance with the idea of ​​adapting to local conditions, she picked up a completely dry mud brick from the ground with both hands, then looked at the charcoal that had been piled into a hill and suggested.

"I wonder if they will stick together and be inseparable?" She took the mud brick from Song Shuyao's hand, played with it, and expressed her worries to Wanying.

"We can bake a dozen pieces to try first!" Zhao Yiran immediately spoke out her suggestion.

Her suggestion was unanimously nodded.

Although making bricks by hand is indeed more troublesome.

Even with the help of molds, if you are not careful, the initial mud bricks will deform and need to be reshaped.

But the accumulation over this period of time has come down.

There are already more than 100 mud bricks in Bamboo House No. [-].

Zhang Liu's Bamboo House No. [-] and the Bamboo House No. [-] where the girls live each have about fifty yuan each.

Therefore, in terms of trial and error costs, mud bricks are still abundant at present.

According to Song Shuyao's suggestion, the first brick-burning plan was officially launched.

First, thoroughly clean the one-meter-deep earthen kiln in Bamboo House No. [-], and then put in a layer of charcoal to spread the floor.

The next step is to lay 20 yuan mud bricks on top of the bottom charcoal.

Finally, the mud bricks are covered with a layer of charcoal.

"Fire is coming!"

As Xiang Lingying took the fire from the center of the corridor and threw it into the earthen kiln, everyone changed the clay lid of the earthen kiln and then retreated one after another.

The next thing is to wait for the charcoal in the earth kiln to be ignited, and then start to "smolder".

When the time reaches noon.

Xiang Wanying and others who were eating in the middle of the corridor were silently watching the magical sight of steam rising from the roof of Bamboo House No. [-].

At this moment, all they need to do is wait.

"Is it dangerous for the little leopard to sleep over there?" Xiang Lingying slowly swallowed the fragrant and delicious roasted taro in her mouth, and then she murmured.

Probably because of the heavy rain.

The little leopard didn't go down the mountain to hunt today.

After running around and making some choices, it decided to relax and rest in bamboo house No. [-] where the ground was completely dry.

"It should be no problem, that little guy is so smart."

Shaking her head, Xiang Wanying comforted her eldest lady.

Then she also chatted with Zhao Yiran and Song Shuyao about the fixed situation in the pig pen...

At the same time, Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang, who were on the way back, had successfully arrived near the Cinchona tree along the markers.

"Well, let's collect some bark and take it back." Qin Ruoyan moved her shoulders, pointed at a few cinchona trees and said, "It's a good thing."

Qin Ruoshuang looked at a few cinchona trees not far away, with a hesitant expression on her face.

The place where the two sisters are currently standing is under a large banyan tree. Most of the rainwater is blocked by the leaves. Coupled with the rainproof equipment on their bodies, they are basically in a "waterless" state.

But the area where several cinchona trees are located is different.

There are no large banyan branches and leaves covering them, so they are in a "rainy area." Right now, Qin Ruoshuang is worried that she and her sister will be completely wet by the rain after passing there.

"elder sister……"

Along the way, she maintained an attitude of always listening to her sister's opinions.

Until now, when he started to collect cinchona tree bark, Qin Ruoshuang, who was thinking about a certain situation, suddenly asked in a low voice: "Are you feeling well?"

"I'm fine." Hearing her sister's sudden worry, Qin Ruoyan asked with a smile, "Why did you suddenly say that?"

"Aren't you coming to visit your aunt now? You still go out here to get wet in the rain." Qin Ruoshuang looked at her sister, and then said with worry on her face: "Is there a problem?"

"If you get caught in the rain, you may feel a little uncomfortable, but Gu Qingrou has endured it. How can I still be pretentious." Qin Ruoyan smiled lightly, and then she walked towards the cinchona tree in the rain. While talking about Gu Qingrou's performance last night.

"She... can she be so powerful?" Qin Ruoshuang listened to the whole process while accompanying her sister who was collecting bark. A look of surprise suddenly appeared on her face.

Gu Qingrou gave Qin Ruoshuang a completely different impression at this moment.

"Yes, that's when I suddenly understood." Qin Ruoyan stuffed a handful of tree bark into the book basket behind her sister and said, "Gu Qingrou has grown up."

Contrast that with the one who only wants to steal the man and the other who endures the pain and participates in the forest trek.

The more she thought about it, the more ashamed she felt.

And Qin Ruoyan also understood the crisis behind this.

Now I can reflect on this and make changes because Zhang Liu hasn't noticed yet and everything can be redeployed.

If there is no reflection, after a long time...

After just briefly imagining the consequences, Qin Ruoyan was frightened.

But at this moment, looking at the bark collected in the book basket, she felt slightly relaxed.

Because these represent the usefulness they can play.

It's currently cloudy.

In the absence of accurate comparison, the easiest way for Qin Ruoyan to judge the time is whether she is hungry or not.

After collecting the bark, my sister and I finished lunch on the simple aerial root platform of the banyan tree built at noon yesterday.

Then she said to Qin Ruoshuang: "Let me carry the bag this afternoon."

"No!" Qin Ruoshuang rejected her sister's request for a backpack, and then she said, "You are now in the aunt stage, so you can't put in too much effort."

After saying that, Qin Ruoshuang picked up the book basket and continued to set off.

And at the same time.

Zhang Liu and others, who had been trekking in the inner circle of the forest for half a day, had entered a "sneaky" state.

Now they were preparing to bypass the group of four wild boars, two large and one small, that were eating moss in front of them as if no one was watching.

Chapter 261 The boy who found a place to sleep together

The first time I saw these two big, two small and four wild boars.

Su Yan and Anya, as the team's martial arts faction, were ready to take action.

And other people who already had hunting experience also showed eagerness to give it a try.

But in the end, Zhang Liu waved his hand and stopped.

In fact, he was also a little moved, but in the end he held it back.

First of all, the current staff is not complete, and everyone has been physically exhausted after traveling long distances, and is not in the best condition before.

Secondly, although everyone had shovels and other weapons in their hands, they did not fully open the attack, and the rash confrontation was a bit of a gamble.

Then there are situations where fighting is not necessary.

Food is not lacking at the moment. The meat of four more wild boars is indeed very good, but it is not absolutely necessary.

So no matter which angle you looked at it, Zhang Liu felt that it was not suitable for everyone to conflict with these guys.

What's more, there is the most important point.
