After eating and washing the dishes, Liu Daode was just busy here, and he didn't wait to sit down and rest. I saw the general running into the kitchen, screaming at himself, and scraping the ground with his paws.

What is the situation? Liu Daode put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand in confusion. I don't know if this guy has found anything new, so I'm beckoning myself to check it out.

Seeing his master move, the general immediately led the way in front and rushed straight out of the courtyard.

After getting along with Liu Daode for a long time, this guy also seems to be more spiritual than ordinary dogs, and often finds some strange things nearby, and then beckons the owner to check it out.

Just like two days ago, it also found a nest of wild duck eggs in the reeds at the water's edge.

Who knew that this time the general did not run far, but stopped in front of a high slope not far to the east of the Land Temple, raised his head and kept shouting.

This mound is part of the rocky mountain behind it, originally twenty or thirty meters high, but when it rained last summer, a mudslide caused the mound to collapse, forming a straight and steep cliff face, revealing yellow-brown soil.

Liu Daode glanced at it in confusion, and there was nothing on it except for a few crooked-necked pine trees.

The "Wangwang" general pressed his limbs on the ground and rushed towards the earthen hill.

As soon as he rushed out of the height of four or five meters, he heard a fluttering sound from a hidden place on the dirt slope, followed by the chirping of birds.

More than a dozen gray-brown figures appeared in mid-air, constantly screaming at the general below.

"It turned out to be a soil swallow, what kind of rare thing should I be. Liu Daode hurriedly shouted and asked the general to retreat.

The appearance of the swallow is very similar to that of the house swallow, the difference is that the feathers under their belly are whiter than the house swallow. In addition, these guys do not build nests in their houses, but choose to build their nests on steep earth cliffs near water sources.

Liu Daode still remembers that when he was a child, there were a lot of swallows near the reservoir in the east of the village. In the early morning and evening, when it flies, it oppresses a large group of black people on the top of the reservoir, covering the sky and the sun, which is very spectacular.

Every spring, the swallows begin to dig small holes in the loess cliff face with their beaks.

Liu Daode was seven or eight years old and had once dug out the young birds of the earth swallow with people, so he was very familiar with this kind of cave. The nest eggs of the swallows are thick, and the depth of the hole is about twenty or thirty centimeters, which is about the same as a child's arm. It is covered with hay and feathers and used to lay eggs and hatch.

Tens of thousands of swallows dig holes and build nests on the cliff face, row by row, looking very spectacular, just like the caves of the Loess Plateau in northern Shaanxi.

Unfortunately, in the 90s, cotton was planted on a large scale in the village, and people had to spray pesticides into the fields almost every three to five days in order to prevent and control insects.

Soil swallows are mainly fed with insects and flying insects in the field, and eat poisonous insects containing pesticides, so they naturally do not live long.

In those years, it was common to see dead swallows in the fields, and even some of them flew in the air and died on the ground.

However, in just a few years, the scene of Wanyan living in Liu Village, Hedong disappeared without a trace.

In recent years, there have been three or five occasional sights, and it has not become a climate.

It's already a bit unexpected to see a dozen of them at a time, like today.

However, Liu Daode was a little puzzled, he remembered that the base camp of these guys should be by the reservoir, why they suddenly moved to the vicinity of the Land Temple.

After thinking for a while, two lines of poetry popped up in his mind: "Three or two peach blossoms outside the bamboo, the prophet of the plumbing duck in the spring river"

Animals are the most sensitive to changes in the external environment, and it should be that these swallows also feel the power of nearby incense, so they will nest and settle here.

It's just a few sand swallows, and after seeing them, Liu Daode has already left them behind.

There is nothing to do in the morning, and it is idle to be idle, so it is better to go up the mountain and pick up some scorpions to sell for money.

Now that the weather is warm and lukewarm, it's a good time to catch scorpions. The tools needed to catch scorpions are simple, a pair of chopsticks, and a canned bottle.

Of course, catching scorpions is also an individual job, and it must be turned back and forth stone by stone.

Sometimes I was busy for a long time, tired and sweaty, and I didn't see a single scorpion.

And those who are lucky, only turn over a few stones, they may come across a scorpion nest, and the harvest is great.

The mountain behind the house has been turned over several times by the bear children in the village, and even if there are not many scorpions, Liu Daode directly made a detour and came to the farther Arrow Mountain.

Halfway up the mountain, remembering the experience of finding a scorpion outside his yard yesterday, Liu Daode subconsciously closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and his originally somewhat chaotic mood gradually calmed down.

Divine perception is like an invisible silk thread, slowly spreading towards the surrounding mountains.

The scent of grass and the dampness of the earth all penetrate into the nostrils. He could even feel that this land was also full of vitality, not much different from the vicinity of the Land Temple.

It's just that this land contains very little vitality, it is very thin, and it does not form a rich white gas at all.

And out of the scope of the Land Temple, Liu Daodao's perception is also very vague, but one or two feet away, he can't "see" anything.

Well...... He opened his eyes slightly, followed the direction he had just perceived, walked quickly, and lifted a stone the size of a basin.

The perception was not wrong, and under the big rock, a panicked scorpion appeared.

The chopsticks fell together, and the scorpion was already clamped and placed in the canned bottle.

Next, Liu Daode continued to wander in the mountains, but in just over an hour, he caught more than 20 animals, which was already a lot of gain.

There are scorpions in the bazaar, each for 2 cents, and these can be sold for nearly five yuan.

Earn five yuan an hour, work for eight hours a day, can earn forty yuan, and earn at least more than 1,000 yuan a month, this income is definitely not low in Liu Village, Hedong.

Liu Daodao's abacus is very good, but after trying for half an hour, he feels a little dizzy in his brain.

Obviously, it was the overuse of supernatural powers.

It seems that it is difficult to count on the supernatural powers to make a fortune! He depressedly dispelled the idea of catching scorpions, and prepared to go home.

Just now, I was just catching scorpions, and I didn't come to see the road, but now I found that I had unconsciously walked to a relatively remote ditch and cliff.

I don't know why, standing here, Liu Daode suddenly felt very comfortable, and his brain, which was originally a little dizzy, became sober.

It's weird!

He tentatively walked into the distance, and after a few steps, the strange feeling disappeared again.

It's here, could it be that there is something buried here?

With confusion, Liu Daode closed his eyes and continued to sense. Then he let out an "ah" and stared blankly at four or five meters away.

Just now, a thick cloud of green qi suddenly appeared in his consciousness, the size of a basin.

When I opened my eyes and looked closely, there was nothing strange there, only an old tree stump the size of a bowl, and a few green shoots on it.
