The two of them couldn't get angry at the fox, but snuggled up to each other and fell asleep.

The next day, when the rain had stopped, the fox went to catch the rabbit again. Then he scratched Li Mingcia with his claws and woke her up alive from her sleep.

She looked at the fox in front of her in a daze, and after she woke up, she looked at the sleeping Shenxi Bridge next to her, and couldn't help but feel sad.

Damn! Why is this fox still picking persimmons to pick soft pinching, and not scratching Shen Xiqiao to scratch her! It's really not a good thing!

Li Mingcian got up from Shen Xiqiao with a gloomy face and walked to the entrance of the cave. The rain stopped, and there was a lot of standing water at the entrance of the cave, so she cautiously walked around and walked under a large tree with a lot of water on the leaves.

Li Mingcian reached out and took a handful of water from the leaves to clean his face, and then sucked a few more mouthfuls before returning to the cave.

The firewood in the fox's nest was almost burned, and Li Mingcian took the flint into his coat pocket and sat next to the rabbit. She knew that the fox wanted her to roast the rabbit, but there was no firewood.

"Brother Fox, look at this firewood. Li Mingcian stretched out his finger and pointed to the only pinch of firewood and ashes left on the ground, "We don't have enough firewood, so we can't burn rabbits." ”

The fox didn't understand, it only pushed the rabbit towards Li Mingcicada's side.

Li Mingcian looked at the fox and was a little helpless, so he could only take out the flint and light the remaining firewood, and then threw the rabbit in.

The flames licked the rabbit's skin, and the rabbit's fur immediately burned, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt protein.

Shen Xiqiao clicked his mouth twice in his sleep, and then stretched out his hand and touched two thighs of Li Mingciao. Li Mingcian froze.

Shen Xiqiao arched on the ground, then reached out and hugged Li Mingciao's waist and rubbed his head on Li Mingciao's leg.

When Li Mingcicada froze, the fire went out, and the fox slapped her on the paw very dissatisfied.

Li Mingcian glared at it angrily, and then began to pick at Shenxi Bridge's claws. Shen Xiqiao hugged it too tightly, and Li Mingcian didn't even open it. At this time, the fox came to make trouble again, and it stretched out its claws and "snapped" at Li Mingcicada.

Li Mingcian was so angry, she stretched out her hand and slapped the fox's head with a thunderous "snap": "Don't you see that there is no firewood?!"

Li Mingciao's Hedong lion's roar successfully woke up the Shenxi Bridge that surrounded her. Shen Xiqiao woke up in shock, and the moment he recovered, the whole person was not good.

How can you hug your sister? Alas, this really damages his image as a dashing son!

Shen Xiqiao pretended to be calm and straightened out his dirty clothes, and then looked at the fire with a red face and was speechless: "Ming Cicada, you see that this fire is all extinguished, why don't you add firewood anymore?"

The fox circled around to Shen Xiqiao's side, sat beside him obediently, and saw that Li Mingcian was a little angry.

The fox is a lamb!

Li Mingcian glanced at him angrily: "Where is the firewood?

Shen Xiqiao was stunned when he heard this, and then turned sideways slightly with some embarrassment, so that Li Mingcian couldn't see his face clearly: "I just woke up and didn't see clearly." I'll go collect firewood later. ”

Li Mingcian rolled his eyes and looked outside the hole, and then covered his hungry stomach.

Shen Xiqiao's eyes glanced out of the cave, oh, he forgot that it was raining heavily yesterday. It's embarrassing.

The fox squeaked twice in anger, and then stretched out its paws and pulled out its own rabbit.

The two of them were silent for a while, and Li Mingcian resigned himself to get up to see if there was anything to eat.

After the rain, the mountains are cool, and some mushrooms have emerged in the grass and jungle, which are very beautiful in the sunshine.

Li Mingcian pulled out a white mushroom, sniffed the fragrance of the mushroom, and threw it on the ground again. She remembers reading a book that said that wild mushrooms should not be eaten raw because they contain toxic peptides and alkalis. These substances can only lose their toxicity when destroyed by high temperatures.

Li Mingcian drank some water from the mountains and found that the ground was not sticky to his feet. Although the rain was heavy, it came and went very neatly, so it didn't cause the trail to be muddy.

"Shenxi Bridge, come out and go, see if there is anything to eat on the way. Li Mingcian shouted.

Shen Xiqiao heard the words and walked out of the cave. The fox looked up at him, then followed him with the half-charred rabbit in his mouth.

Li Mingcian looked at the sun and discerned the direction, so he took a stick and walked with Shenxi Bridge.

The fox walked beside them with the rabbit in his mouth and followed them for a while, then turned a corner. Li Mingcian didn't pay attention to the fox when he saw it turn around, and left on his own.

The fox threw the rabbit on the ground, then ran to Shen Xiqiao, bit his trouser leg and dragged him to the side. Shen Xiqiao looked at the fox and felt a little inexplicable.

Li Mingcian was also surprised when she saw it, she stopped to see what the fox was going to do.

Shen Xiqiao raised his legs and walked towards the fox, and the fox relieved himself, then took a few steps forward, and then looked back at him.

Shen Xiqiao looked at Li Mingcian hesitantly: "Why don't we go with it?"

Li Mingcian looked at the fox for a while, and the fox ran to her side, raised his paw and slapped her.

Li Mingcian was stunned: ...... Look at the people cooking!

Shen Xiqiao laughed unkindly when he saw Li Mingciao, Li Mingcian gave him a blank look, then stomped his feet and followed the fox.

The fox wagged his tail triumphantly, picked up the rabbit in his mouth, and led the way.

The mountain trail is not easy to walk, but for the fox it is like walking on the ground.

The two men stumbled after the fox for a long time, and then they saw an adobe house. The adobe house is intact, and there is a pile of mushrooms drying outside.

There are people living here.

The fox clicked into the courtyard of the adobe house, and quickly slipped into a broken urn. It poked its head out alertly and looked around, then pouted and hid the rabbit.

Looking at the fox's clever and human appearance, Li Mingcian understood that this fox should have been raised by this family.

Li Mingcian and Shen Xiqiao were very hungry, so they stood in front of the courtyard gate of the house and shouted, "Is anyone home?"

"Is anyone there, please?"

The two screamed for a while, and the door creaked open, and a beastly man stepped inside.

The man looked a little unkempt, his long, messy beard covering half of his face, and his clothes hung in tatters. A pair of eyes were a little gloomy, and he was stunned for a moment when he saw the two children standing at the door, and then his eyes continued to darken, and he didn't say a word.

Seeing such a gloomy savage-like man, Li Mingcian felt worried.

This person can't be a savage, right? This person can't eat people, right? Li Mingcian thought wildly.

Shen Xiqiao was also a little stunned when he looked at the man, but he was a man and couldn't show his cowardice in front of his little sister, so he straightened his chest and stood up.

"Uh......" Shen Xiqiao looked at the bearded man and didn't know what to call it, this bearded man covered his face, and he couldn't tell his age!

Li Mingcian looked at Shen Xiqiao expectantly and cheered him on with his eyes.

Come on, boy, sister, I don't dare to talk to this big brother!

Shen Xiqiao weighed it and felt that it was better to call it big brother.

Shen Xiqiao shook at the bearded man, and then looked at him sloppily: "This big brother, we are playing in this mountain and got lost, we are hungry and have not eaten for a long time, I hope that the eldest brother will have mercy and lend us a little food!"

Li Mingcian looked at Shen Xiqiao and felt that this guy was really a talent. It's so nice to say.

Shen Xiqiao shook again, and then smiled at the bearded man: "Big brother, we will definitely return your meal." ”

The bearded man lowered his eyelids as if he hadn't heard anything, which made Shen Xiqiao embarrassed for a while.

Li Mingcian was beating a drum in her heart, she quietly moved forward, then reached out and grabbed Shen Xiqiao's hand, and tentatively shouted: "Big brother?"

The bearded man lowered his eyes at the clear, bright voice of the baby, and then turned and went into the room.

Li Mingchan: ......

Shenxi Bridge: ......

People ignore the two of them, what should they do? The two looked at each other and were speechless for a while.

The bearded man went into the house for a while and then took a slaughtered rabbit from the house, which had been cleaned up and cleaned of its entrails.

The man strode to the door with the rabbit, and then stretched his arm forward, almost sending the rabbit to Li Mingciao's face.

Li Mingcian was startled, and Shen Xiqiao stretched out his hand to block her eyes and stopped the rabbit.

Shen Xiqiao took the rabbit and thanked the man repeatedly: "Thank you, big brother, thank you!"

Li Mingcian nodded with him and thanked him.

The man looked at them for a moment, then leaned to the side and let them in.

Shen Xiqiao and Li Mingcian were overjoyed, and after thanking them repeatedly, they carried the rabbit into the man's house.

The man was sitting on a stone in the courtyard, and Shen Xiqiao sat next to him and chatted with him, wanting to ask him about the way out of the volcano.

Li Mingcian borrowed the man's kitchen.

There was a pile of firewood in the kitchen, and then there was a stove and a pot. The pots and stoves are very clean, and there is a bowl and a pair of chopsticks next to it, and next to it is a fire fold kitchen knife or something.

Li Mingcian cut the rabbit meat with a kitchen knife, then sprinkled salt and put it in the pot, plus some mushrooms and wild vegetables. She went to the yard again to scoop up some water and drown the rabbit meat. Light the fire, add firewood, and cook the soup.

Li Mingcicada burned for a long time, and he was drenched in sweat.

The water boiled for a while, and she scooped the meat into the bowl with a spoon, then folded four clean wooden sticks for chopsticks, and took the man's pair and made three pairs of chopsticks.

Bringing the bowl to the courtyard, Li Mingcian placed the bowl in the middle, and then handed out the chopsticks.

The man hadn't eaten it yet, and when he saw the rabbit meat cooked to the fullest, his eyes had some light, and then he stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the meat and eat it.

The man moved his chopsticks, and Li Mingcian and Shen Xiqiao also began to eat.

They were all so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, so the bowl quickly bottomed out. Li Mingcicada went to serve it again, and then ate it all. In the end, there was no soup left in the pot, and the three of them were still unsatisfied.

Li Mingcian touched his stomach, and then drank some water with Shen Xiqiao to fill the vacancy in his stomach. Seeing that it was getting late, the two of them planned to leave and hurry.

When the man saw that the two were leaving, he didn't stay, but went to the fox's broken urn, and he reached out and took out the rabbit that the fox was hiding in.

The sun rises higher and higher, and the ground is somewhat reflective.

Li Mingciao's eyes were squinted by the shaking, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her eyes. And when I looked at the glow, there was a thin chain.

The chain was tied around the man's ankle.
