Survival In the World of Beasts
Chapter 70: Fir Fruit Picking
After the fishing dinner that night was over, Li Zhizhen and Bai sent the old people back together. They now feel that they are in better health, and they have returned to their original residences, and they also said that they no longer need Yu Amu and the others to take care of them.
In Yang Apa’s words, if you have old bones, you know the importance, so you don’t need the young people to worry about it. Now the valley is busy and they can’t help a lot. It’s absolutely no problem to take care of yourself.
Or in the eyes of Yang Apa, Yu Amu, Lan Amu and even Chiapa and Qing Apa are all young people, and they are all children who need their love. So the old people also sympathized with their hard work, so they declined their care early.
Li Shizhao and Bai discussed that the spirits of the old people look good today. It's better to wait and see. Anyway, these real young people are energetic, and they can't stop their busy shifts to visit the old people. They just happen to talk to the old people. What about their work? Listen to their experience and observe the physical condition of the elderly.
Li Zhizheng finally sighed: "There is an old family like a treasure."
This sentence was spoken in Chinese. Li Shizheng explained to Bai again, and after Bai understood it with a smile, he said, "No, if it weren't for Yang Apa, we wouldn't know that the fish in the lake are poisonous. A lot of old people have fallen because of this heavy snow season..."
Li Shizhao sighed and hesitated and said, "Do you think that some rules in the valley can be changed?" After all, this is the valley where Bai grew up. He didn't know if he said it would be inappropriate.
Bai looked at Li Zhizhu in surprise: "I thought you knew it a long time ago."
Li Zhizhu:?
what do you know? He doesn't know anything.
Bai and Li Shizhen walked side by side by the lake. The night had fallen, but the scent of broiled fish still remained by the lake. It seemed that everyone's hope and enthusiasm had been lingering by the lake just now, and they did not dissipate. After the snow stopped, a bright moon just hit the treetops tonight. The remnant snow on the lake reflects the moonlight, and the calm lake also reflects the moon. The whole world looks extraordinarily bright and clean, but because of the residual joyous atmosphere, it is only warm and unconscious. A little deserted.
Bai looked at Li Shizhao after a long while and smiled, "Aren't we already changing it?"
Li Shizhao realized that, indeed, there has never been a time when young people presided over the overall situation in the valley, especially when Jade Amlanam was all present; before the heavy snow season, there was not an old female who really went into the snow cave and did not come out. Instead, they would Those who entered were all rescued; the fishing, planting, and breeding activities they were doing were unprecedented, and not all of them were changing.
"There are things that don't need to be said, just need to be done." Bai slowly said, his clear ice blue eyes were indescribably deep under the moonlight, and this sentence seemed to be caused by the special look in his eyes. It seems to have a meaning.
Li Zhizheng was stunned for a moment with this look. It seemed that his heartbeat was speeding up. Bai reached out his hand and gently wiped off the residual snow that had just fallen from the branches of Li Zhizhen’s hair. After he came to the valley, Li Zhizhen just used a knife or something. Take care of his beard, which is already small. The weather is getting colder and he doesn't care much about his hair. Now the long hair has grown to his shoulders. With a gentle white brush, the ends of the hair are drawn across the neck, making him a little itchy.
Li Zhizun couldn't help but stretched out his hand and scratched his neck. His white eyes stared at Li Zhizun's movements. At this moment, his eyes turned into a mysterious and profound dark blue like the night sky. It was just him. I quickly forced myself to remove my eyeliner and continued to explain: "You see that most of the rules laid down by the ancestors are not uttered, but after one generation has done it, they have achieved results, and they have been passed on to the next generation. This is the origin of these rules. Some bad ones, we replaced them with better ones, and naturally passed on to the next generation, which is better rules."
Someone who was distracted put his hand down, thought about it for a moment, and nodded in agreement. Indeed, these things do not need to be stated explicitly, only a better solution is needed to slowly replace them. Over time, natural water drops and rocks pierce through, and changes will happen by themselves. If they are said it will cause other problems.
Therefore, his proposal was not at all constructive. Li Shizhao thought helplessly. In fact, it was very good. The big cat next to him wanted to be longer and more enforceable than himself. He knew the situation in the valley better. , And think more deeply, which is a good thing. It's just that this guy, is it growing too fast?
Li Shizhao glanced sideways at the big cat: "White?"
Bai's head sideways:?
Then Li Shizhao clenched his fist and smiled slightly: "You have done a great job recently, you have worked hard! Keep going!" Then he stretched out his fist and wanted to bump into Bai's, to cheer him up. No matter how you grow up, you will still be tired and tired if you are under such a lot of pressure. And if it grows so fast, it hurts, just like a person who grows up too fast, he can't sleep at night because his bones hurt too much. Does this big cat have such a moment?
Bai's slightly sharp eyebrows seemed to be stretched out at this moment. He showed an almost gentle smile. He stretched out his palm, instead of hitting Li Shizhao with his fist, but instead used his big palm to slap Li Shi. Zhao's fist was completely contained in his palm.
Li Shizhen was a little confused and a little clear. He earned, but he couldn't get rid of Bai's seemingly gentle but powerful palm. He was a little troubled, as if he was stuck in a gentle but inescapable grasp.
Bai didn't say much, he just walked back to the stone house with Li Zhixun all the way with a gentle and stretched smile. Until he returned to the stone house, Li Shizhen failed to understand his complicated psychology.
There was nothing for a night, and the two fell asleep with their own minds, and there were other things waiting for them to arrange tomorrow.
When the fishing event was over, everyone in the valley finally took a reassurance. The young and old were full of enthusiasm and felt very happy, and the progress of all things went smoother.
The planting progressed very smoothly, but within a few days, a lot of corn sprouts fine yellow young shoots. Li Shizhao observed the growth of these seedlings, probably because of the proper selection and the fertility of the soil itself, the temperature and humidity. The seedlings are considered very healthy.
Ahu carefully took a few females to take care of the seedlings. The natural environment of the hot spring area is good. They don't need to be too busy. They just need to be careful not to let small animals ruin the seedlings and see if there are any insects.
In the past two days, the reclamation of the northern woods has been busy. Sometimes Asha and the others have to go and help. Without it, the reclamation has come to an end. According to Li Zhixun’s confession, older trees and fir trees were left behind. , The other small trees fell down and uprooted. Li Shizhao has seen the surrounding vegetation. The area they cultivated will not bring about the impact of soil erosion, but the preservation of the big tree is still out of awe of nature. After all, the growth of a towering tree requires nature. Favor needs the gift of time.
As for the fir tree, one is because its fruit is the staple food in the valley, and it can provide food when it grows up, and the other is because after the snow cave that day, Li Zhizhen can not say that the faith of the holy fir is superstition and so on. It is to be in awe of something, a miracle of life like Sheng Cong, whose descendants feed the people in the valley and repay the peach and plum. Naturally, the small fir tree should be cherished. This is the consensus of everyone in the valley.
Although the survival of these trees will cause some troubles in farming, compared to the losses caused by losing them, Li Shizhao believes that everyone would rather choose such a way that seems slightly troublesome in a short time.
In the past few days, Li Shizhen led the females to use the felled wood and made a large number of stone hoes and other farming tools. Now it is time to plow the ground. Clean up the rocks and loosen the soil. All of them need manpower. The male side Those who were not on patrol were also brought over to work together.
Cough, male and female match, work not tired. Anyway, like organic fertilizer mixing, the females threw it to these males without any burden. Every time the taste is stirred, the females have to do a long-term mental construction and cover their noses with animal skins to go up. It just so happens that these guys are coming and they are strong enough to let them go.
Li Shizhao also got on the track when he saw the ground and other things. The eminems would come to help from time to time when he was free. He took the time to check the lower aquaculture area and was satisfied to find that all the affairs were in order. The feasible improvements they discussed last time are already being implemented. Whether they are lambs, rabbits, or females with cubs, they are all in good condition. The rabbits used grass to build a small nest in the cage, and the eyes of a few small rabbits are all right. Did not open.
Bai’s hunting team seemed to have brought back more and more species. Li Shizhao actually saw a few herbivorous dinosaurs in the fence, but it seemed that Bai had also clearly identified these dinosaurs. The species was of medium size and docile personality. He was chewing grass blades in the fence. Li Zhixuan couldn't help thinking about the animal's daily food intake.
Asha and the others didn’t know how to count, but Li Shizhao was very impressed when he explained the quantity last time. Naturally, they would also ask those young females to ask one or two. In a short time, they would like to fully learn how to add and subtract within a hundred. It's unlikely, but counting within ten is fine.
Li Shizhao figured out the food intake of the herbivorous dinosaurs. Fortunately, a lot of land was reserved during the reclamation. The germination rate of those corn seedlings is unlikely to be 100%. There will be more land than that. Plant some feed for these dinosaur flocks. It’s hard to say that it’s not cost-effective in a short period of time because it’s too big to eat too much. When the time comes to grow fast-growing feed, it shouldn’t be a burden to raise such a few animals. Let’s observe. Other small animals that he thinks are very cost-effective, do they think they are too small and completely ignore them? It seems that I have to communicate later.
After the leveling and plowing work is completed, everyone hasn't rested much, and the time has come for the fir fruit to ripen. It seems that within a few nights, the green fruit hanging on the tree has been stained brown.
Spinning is really hard. Many females have lost a lot of weight. The males need to hunt and patrol and work. The young people who had escaped looked calmer, but no one complained. After all, Congguo is The staple food of the snow season in the valley, its maturity and successful picking are of great significance.
Li Shizhao and Bai made full preparations for this picking. Containers, handling tools, drying sites and warehouses have been prepared. The picking training for young people has been completed long ago, and the picking plan has been drawn up long ago. Just wait for this day.
I had breakfast that day. Except for the patrolling team of males and some pregnant females reserved for the fence and nursery area in the hot spring area, all the young and old were reorganized into this big picking. There was no change in the team where everyone was. They each delineated the area to work separately, and even Yang Apa and the old people also formed a small team on their own, unwilling to be left behind.
It's just that the work efficiency of these teams is so different that Li Shizhen and Bai can't laugh or cry.
You can see from the picking that this group of jade eminems and the group of eminems are amazing. The fir fruits on a tree are basically picked in one direction. Someone picks them and others pick them. They are quick and efficient. Basically, this tree There will be no omissions after harvesting.
It was a laborious task for young people to pick. This is still the way it looks after training. If you start directly, I don't know how terrible it will be. The females are okay. It takes more time to find the fir fruit. The picking technique is relatively quick and dexterous. They are more thoughtful. Although the progress is slower, they generally pick in one direction, such as from south to north, or from south to north. From north to south, no fruit will fall after picking.
The progress of the old people is not slow. They are usually picked by the elderly ames, and the apas are picking up the fruit under the tree. Li Shizhao was a little worried about their safety, but he looked at the treasured sword and his figure. The few eminems who are still vigorous, they also seem to know that they are not young, and they are steady and careful during their movements, and Li Shizhen is slightly relieved.
As for the males, Li Shizhen looked at the sparsely harvested tree, with one fruit left on the east and one fruit on the west. The fir tree that looked the same as a dog gnawed, and then looked at the tree scratching its ears and scratching its head and forehead. The tree kept underneath. Calling "there are still there" and "there are still", Li Shizhu sighed and held his forehead, and then discussed it with Bai.
Obviously Bai didn't expect these guys to be so frustrated, just picking a fruit, what a big deal, would it be more difficult than hunting those ferocious animals? Actually making the scene more chaotic than encountering the terrifying beast, this Nima is also a skill. Does picking a fruit also require him to plan and plan carefully beforehand? Obviously they and the female received the same training, how to make things like this, Bai is also puzzled.
Li Shizhao didn't mean to blame. Sometimes his nature was there and there was really no way he could do it. He once again deeply realized that the talent shown in Bai was by no means accidental. This group of guys are still suitable to do something that uses intuition and is a little irritating. This kind of repetitive work, except for the direct use of strength, Otherwise, don't call them, it's in vain.
Li Zhizhu and Bai bowed their heads and whispered for a while, Bai thought for a moment, nodded, and directly called the group of males.
The picking has just begun at this moment. Although everyone has divided the area, the basic starting point is almost the same. The fact that the males were quickly stopped immediately aroused the onlookers of the large and small females on the tree. They saw the dogs. After gnawing on the fir tree, the females immediately understood the reason, and laughed so hard.
Yu Amu loudly said: "Ah, don't toss them, they are so stupid, the males haven't picked much in the past years!" Even if there are males picking, at most they will pick up fruit under the tree, responsible for carrying something, the tree It's still female.
Li Shizhao nodded in response, asking them to come down to send them some work.
The males gathered and stood in a row as usual Bai asked. Although they were a little embarrassed to be teased, the dignity and rules of the warrior were there, and the leader's words still had to be obeyed.
Li Shizhao took out a small whistle. This small whistle used in the valley was smaller than that used by patrols outside, and its voice was softer, with a playful and lovely meaning.
As soon as the whistle sounded, everyone stopped their hand movements and looked curiously at what Ah Zhao was going to do. The grass blades on the ground rustled, and a few white or colorful striped animals appeared. In everyone's sight. The little tiger who ran in the front touched Li Shizun affectionately, and then touched Bai Bai. The two little dumplings at the end were not so much ran out as they were rolled out. Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
In this way, is the mysterious mission of the cubs eyeing? The whereabouts of these little guys have recently become a mystery. The valley is still safe, and it is a task assigned by Li Shizun. The eminems didn't stop these little guys from going out, but they are also mysterious and make the adults very curious. At this moment, everyone needs to see what Li Shizhao let these little guys do.
Li Shizhao counted the cubs, large and small, and several cubs who came back from outside the valley, who were slightly larger than Ash, were among them, but they happened to be in line with these males.
At the moment, four males took a group of two cubs. Li Shizhao numbered them, gave them a wooden barrel for picking, and told them the rules of the game in detail. These males were just shoulders. The group carrying the cubs chose a direction and set off in a hurry.
Everyone picking from the tree is curious, where did these big guys and the little guys go? Seeing the expressions of the males, it seems...a bit excited? While everyone was speculating and discussing, they were not idle, their eyes swept towards Li Shizhen and Bai, neither of them explained the meaning, but the more they guessed, the more curious they became.
After waiting for a long time without seeing them coming back, everyone had to continue to work and look around. As a result, they collected a bucket full of fir fruit and gave it to Li Shizhao to prepare for transportation for a while. By the way, when they received an empty bucket, there was actually a group of males. Back with the cubs!
Then everyone was stunned to find that this group of males were all smiling, and the bucket they were carrying was also filled with a bucket of fir fruit. Is this unscientific? ! These guys just picked that frustrated look, and given them so much time to go to the tree, they wouldn't be able to pick so many fruits.
This group of males received a sign issued by Li Shizheng, indicating that they had already handed in a bucket of land. They received a new bucket and set off happily.
The curiosity of the masses can no longer be covered at this time, the discussion is getting louder, and the guessing is getting more and more bizarre. Reminiscent of Li Zhixun's wish to let go under the holy fir, did the Holy Spirit quietly tell Li Zhixun where he is hiding Congguo, did Li Shizhen tell the cubs? This saying that sounds "reliable" quickly spread on the picking scene with the consistent speed of gossip news.
Li Shizheng was busy counting the barrels, preparing to arrange transportation later, and although everyone was discussing, he only heard a vague noise, thinking that everyone was talking while working and could not distinguish the discussion. What, not to mention that everyone has almost regarded him as the protagonist in the myth.
Bai just listened with a smile while holding his arm. He could hear clearly that he didn't even mean to refute the excuse.
One after another, the males came back with their cubs to hand over the buckets, and Li Shizhao handed out the signs one by one. The crowd onlookers decisively felt that their guess was correct. Look, it can be said that a group of people is a coincidence. Each group is so fast to gather the fir fruit. Obviously, this cannot be picked from the tree. They If you can harvest so much, you just won't let them go down the tree.
Gradually, the fact that Li Shizhao was blessed by the Holy Spirit was settled by the masses. Therefore, the so-called labels are easy to stick and not easy to remove, and the morals are easy to fall and not easy to pick up. Cough, everyone can ignore the last sentence. All in all, classmate Li Shizhen is very self-contained. When a magic stick, he will have the consciousness of being regarded as a magic stick for a lifetime, especially when there is a teammate who is like a **** beside you standing by and watching you being seated as a magic stick.╮( ̄▽ ̄ ")╭In the evening, most of the picking is basically completed, and the rest can be continued tomorrow. After the males in the group have brought back many barrels of pine fruit, the frequency of returning is getting slower and slower. Everyone It is said that the place where the Holy Spirit hides the fir fruit is getting farther and farther. You must know that in previous years, people picked the fir fruit and there was no less growth of the fir tree. It can be seen that the Holy Spirit himself also hid a part of the fir fruit to reproduce.
Hearing this outrageous saying with a nose and eyes, Bai couldn't help but secretly laugh. Of course Congguo was "hidden", but it was not the Holy Spirit that everyone imagined. He wouldn't relay this statement to Li Shizhao anyway, so let this wonderful legend pass on.
The cubs could not speak for a while, and it would be difficult to make it clear in a short time. Moreover, with the attitude of everyone in the valley, I am afraid that I would not ask the cub this question, after all, it involves the secret of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, if this legend is not clarified by Li Shizhen himself, it is estimated that it will spread for a long time. Even if it is clarified in the future, it is estimated that the hat of the Holy Spirit blessing Li Shizhen will not be removed.
Seeing it was getting late, Li Shizhao stopped letting the males go, and instead asked them to drag a bucket of Congguo back to the temporary warehouse with a small carriage. These fir fruits need to be dried in the open space tomorrow. He asked the eminems that only dried fir fruits can be kept in the ice store for a whole year.
Therefore, in addition to picking and drying tomorrow, there are a lot of things. I am afraid that the females in the planting and breeding side will need to hold on for another day. Later, he will have to see how things are going after dinner.
Li Shizhen, who was seriously thinking about the plan, didn't notice the eyes of everyone around him whispering, and he didn't care about the discussions. After all, it's normal for everyone to be a little lively after the harvest.
Bai deliberately or unintentionally separated the crowd, smiling and making the males intuition that this guy had any ideas brewing!
