Chapter 186: Meat gourds are overflowing
As the minutes ticked by, Zhong Lin's new things about the outside world and their wonderful insights were like a powerful magnet that attracted the children so much that all the children had forgotten that they had come to fish by the stream......
"Alright, alright, children, hurry home! If you don't go home, the adults should be in a hurry......"
Seeing that it was not early, An Yi began to remind the children to hurry home.
"Sister Young Patriarch, let's listen to it a little longer! This big brother is talking about this is so interesting, we haven't heard of it before. ”
Xiao Luo raised her head, a pair of big watery eyes flickered and blinked, looking at An Yi pitifully, making it difficult for her to refuse.
"Yes, young patriarch sister, let the eldest brother tell us more!
"Yes, Sister Young Patriarch, it's a big deal, it's a big deal, let's get up a little earlier tomorrow, and then come back with more pigweed......"
The other children also spoke in a tone that bordered on pleading, and even offered chips to do more work.
"Okay, okay! I really don't have any way to take you, so let the big brother give you half a pillar of incense. But we have agreed in advance that when the time for half a pillar of incense comes, no one is allowed to play tricks, and they must each go home and sleep! Because it is too late today, and the eldest brother also needs to rest, and I will tell you more when I have time in the future. ”
"Yes, that's great!"
"A word is a certainty, a word counts!"
The children are cheering.
An Yi looked at the excited expressions of the children and couldn't help but shake his head. She still didn't know whether she was right or wrong in deciding to bring Zhong Lin into the clan, and she didn't know what kind of impact Zhong Lin's arrival would have on her clan......
The time of the half-pillar incense is actually not very long, especially for those children who are fascinated by listening, it passes quickly. When An Yi reminded the children again that it was time to go home, although several children were still a little reluctant, they still did a good job in keeping their promises. I saw that they quickly packed up their fishing tackle, then stopped in two steps, looked back in three steps, and reluctantly went home.
"Thanks to you, this time it is estimated that these children even sleep and dream at night to see the outside world!"
An Yi's tone seemed to be mixed with a hint of reproach, and there seemed to be a little bit of loss and helplessness.
"Don't you want them to go out one day? For this reason, you specially trained them to hold their breath, why are they ...... at this time?"
Zhong Lin clearly remembered that An Yi told him that he hoped to bring all the children to the outside world one day, so he intentionally or unintentionally told the children as many novelties in the outside world as possible, hoping to arouse their curiosity and make them study more seriously, which can be regarded as helping An Yi. But looking at An Yi's reaction now, it seems that he has done something bad with good intentions, because An Yi doesn't seem to appreciate it.
"Actually, I don't blame you, it's my own heart that is full of contradictions about whether or not to expose them to the outside world. ”
An Yi frowned, and then said: "I want them to go out, I want them to know how developed the outside world is, and let them see that things that only happen in legends, such as 'going to heaven and earth' and 'drifting across the ocean', happen normally in the outside world." At the same time, I didn't want them to go out, because after I went out with my mother-in-law, that is, when I saw the outside world for the first time, I was also very surprised, so I was very eager to learn more about the outside world, and even brought back a lot of books. However, as I learned more about the history of the outside world, I began to worry about whether my people would be able to adapt to the outside world......"
"For a long time, I had this contradiction in my heart, I didn't know how to make the right choice! I was really worried that one of my wrong decisions would bring disaster to my clan. ”
I have to say that An Yi, as the young patriarch of the clan, still has a lot of things to consider.
Zhong Lin was also silent at the moment. Yes, he knows much more about the outside world than An Yi, and at worst, the wars and disputes between various countries seem to have never stopped, and at the worst, it is impossible to prevent deceit between people. These are all things that the people in An Yi's clan have never experienced. It's hard to imagine what these pure, water-like people would have experienced if they had actually gone out into the outside world......
"Okay, I don't want to do that, now let's talk about you, where are you going to spend the night at night?"
An Yi saw that Zhong Lin didn't speak for a long time, afraid that he would have a psychological burden, so he changed the topic and asked.
"Oh, I can do anywhere, I found a lot of caves under the cliffs, maybe I can find a suitable cave, light a bonfire, and spend the night in the cave. ”
Zhong Lin was not at all worried about where to spend the night.
"Well, those caves are a good place to go, but one thing to note is that you can't go to the caves north of the village, because they are the territory of the one-horned wolf. ”
An Yi reminded very seriously.
Without An Yi explaining too much, Zhong Lin also guessed that the so-called "one-horned wolf" in An Yi's mouth should be a wolf-like beast with a long appearance, and it should still have a horn on its head! And it should be an animal that has long been extinct in the outside world, because such an animal must be rarer than the giant panda if it exists in the outside world.
"Okay, I made a note of that. ”
Because he had never seen a one-horned wolf at all, let alone knew what their combat effectiveness was, Zhong Lin did not dare to be so big that he knew that there were "wolves" in the mountains and preferred the "wolves" to go to the mountains.
"Well, be careful, I'll go back. ”
An Yi knew that her mother-in-law might be really angry, and she didn't dare to go back too late, let alone take Zhong Lin back to live with her, because that would be tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, and it would be difficult for her mother-in-law to serve her directly, so she could only temporarily wronged Zhong Lin. After explaining some precautions to Zhong Lin, An Yi said goodbye to Zhong Lin and left.
After An Yi disappeared, Zhong Lin also disappeared in an instant.
"Master, you're in. ”
It was not someone else who spoke, it was Ling'er's little girl.
That's right, Zhong Lin entered his own hour space in an instant, and if it was said to "spend the night", there was no place more suitable than here.
"What's wrong, Ling'er?"
Zhong Lin took a deep breath, the air in the hour sky was no worse than the air in An Yi's clan, and it could even be said to be better. Although Ling'er's tone showed that she seemed to be in a hurry, Zhong Lin was not worried that something important would really happen in this one-third of an acre of land refined by Ding Ling.
"Master, the fish you caught are now in schools in the creek, and if it continues like this, I am afraid it will not be long before it will overflow......
Ling'er said with a frown.
"I thought it was going on? According to the time outside, it has been almost three hours since I caught them, which means that it has been almost two months here, and it is normal for these fish to breed and increase in number during these two months, and besides, there are no natural predators here. Besides, isn't that exactly what you want to see?"
In fact, when Zhong Lin took those "meat gourds" and walked to the stream, it was to create the illusion that he was releasing them, because only in this way would he not attract the attention of Xiao Luo and others, and he would not have to explain more to them.
At this moment, Ling'er was full of helplessness, because it was under her advice that Zhong Lin brought those fish into the hourly sky.
"But I didn't expect them to multiply so fast in the hourly air!"
Ling'er's expression was obviously a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter, I'm going to go out almost at dawn, which means I'm going to stay here for three or four months, and I just have fish to eat during that time, didn't you hear Xiao Luo? ”
Zhong Lin said disapprehantly.
Although this is the case, Zhong Lin was also really startled when he came to the stream. It wasn't until this clock that Lin understood why Ling'er was so worried.
At this time, the size of the small space-time was about the same size as An Yi's clan, but it was much flatter than there. The previous stream was much wider, and there were "meat gourds" swimming in the stream from time to time. That's right, not one by one, not in groups of three or five, but in pieces, in pieces!
Catching fish can be said to be Zhong Lin's strong point, and he doesn't have to think that he has no less than ten ways to catch these "meat gourds" in the stream. In the end, he chose the easiest method, using local materials, weaving a fishing basket out of wicker, and caught a basket full of fish in only an hour.
At this moment, Zhong Lin no longer felt how cute these fish were, and he only had delicious ingredients in his eyes. This fish is called "meat gourd", but it is really too apt, it is like a round little meat gourd!
Strange to say, these "meat gourds" that grow in the sky are better than any other species of fish outside, even without any seasoning. So much so that Zhong Lin would not get tired even if he ate these fish every day.
This time, Zhong Lin was much more moisturized than when he came to Xiaokong, and every day he would change different ways of cooking fish, so that Ling'er and Xiao Dingling, who didn't eat fireworks in the world, drooled when they saw it. However, they can only smell before they really transform.
It's strange to say, it's the same as the plants that Zhong Lin transplanted before. The "meat gourd" caught from the creek is not only delicious but also has a trace of spiritual power. This discovery simply made Zhong Lin ecstatic - he could absorb spiritual power while eating delicious food, thereby improving his cultivation, which was simply the pinnacle of his life!
In the blink of an eye, Zhong Lin spent a full three months in the hourly space, and before he was ready to go out, he packed a big bag of the "meat gourd" that he usually caught and was made into dried fish for fear of not being able to eat it all.
However, when Zhong Lin really returned to An Yi's clan, he found that the clan had become a mess.
