Chapter 11 Xiatang
"Ahh Yuan Si didn't react at first, but she was not a child after all, and she immediately understood what the old lady meant.
"Well, when you come back, you'll also carry some people on your back, and it's not good for others to see it. "Lady Zuo is very satisfied, the little girl just follows her, and she is transparent at all.
"Hmm. Yuan Si pondered in her heart, she didn't care about the few branches that were burned as firewood, she wanted to eat meat now, "By the way, mother, why are there only a few flowers in the lotus pond below our house?
The Li family lives on the slope, and out of the yard is a downhill step, and after the downhill there is a small pond with a few thin lotus leaves floating in the middle of the pond.
"It's as simple as you think. In the early years, someone also got there, and sprinkled a lot of money to plant lotus roots in it, and the first year really bloomed the lotus flowers in the pond, when I was still young, and I went to join in the fun, but the second year was not done, there were a few flowers left in the middle, and the rest died. The family has been tossing for several years, and there are still a few flowers in it. In the past two years, no one has taken care of it, the land belongs to the state, and of course this pond also belongs to the state. But no one in the team cares, and in the summer, some children swim in it to cool off. Why, you didn't go to let you go out with those children before, and now you want to go?"
Yuan Si nodded undeniably, didn't she just want to swim in the blister.
"You can't go if you want to, the weather is still cold now, but you can't go down to the water, you stop, when it's hot, I'll let your cousin's roots take you to play." The old lady explained.
This Yuan Si couldn't agree, but she understood what a white lie was, and she still didn't tell the old lady what she thought in her heart for the time being.
In the afternoon, the mother and daughter were chatting and pinching their braids at the door, until it was already dark, and the old lady did not let go, and she did not need to look, she could still weave quickly in the dark.
That night, Yuan Si didn't practice, but listened with her eyes closed, and made sure that the old lady next to her was indeed asleep, so she walked out of the house lightly. Then I started to dig out the equipment in the space in the hall.
In the past, she would often do various tasks in the last days, and there were also underwater missions, so there are really a lot of tools at her disposal now.
She pulled out a black wetsuit. This is made from the skin of the Norse python, which is an amphibious mutant beast, so its skin can maintain a constant temperature for a certain period of time, and it can also provide oxygen to humans within thirty minutes.
The wetsuit is stretchy, and Yuan Si wears the clothes on her body, which are a little big but okay, and do not affect her movement.
Then she pulled out another flashlight from the space.
Just look at her holding the flashlight, poking it at the handle, and the hand retracted, turning into a cake, and she put it directly on her forehead.
The flashlight is a high-tech product, and it was also invented after the end of the world, and the energy used is the zombie crystal nucleus.
The back handle of the lamp head is retractable, and when it is pulled out, it is an ordinary flashlight, and when pressed in, it is like a small round cake, which can be adsorbed in any position. It is usually used on the top of a tent, and sometimes it can be directly attached to the forehead and used as a searchlight.
The energy of the apocalypse is limited, so these tools are all energy-saving, and a level 0 crystal nucleus can support 7 days and nights. She has three of these flashlights stored in her space, just in case. And there are tens of thousands of energy crystal nuclei stored in her space, and they vary from level to level.
Finally she took out a disc from the space, she unscrewed the plate-like thing and grabbed the edge and stretched it up, and then rotated it to the side, and the disc immediately became a bucket, and she spun it from the bottom of the bucket again, and the bottom of the bucket split into two parts, and the part that separated from the wall of the bucket was the lid of the bucket.
This is a folding bucket made of Montenegrin bat wings, when a lid is needed, it can also have a lid, just like Yuan Si just did, the middle part of the lid has a place like a net, specially prepared for snorkeling, so that the diver can hang directly on the waist, catch a fish or something, stuff it into this net, and the prey will not escape.
Yuan Si prepared everything, heard no movement in the house, opened the door and walked out.
It was the dead of night, and it was lifeless all around, except for the moonlight. Yuan Si quickly opened the courtyard door, went downhill, came to the side of the lotus pond, turned her head and carefully observed the surroundings, and made sure that there was no one, so she went down the lotus pond with confidence.
The edge of the lotus pond is not too deep, only about one meter, but it has also reached Yuan Si's mouth, it is really that she is too short now, and the water level will gradually deepen after two meters inside. Soon the water was gone above her head, and she reached out and pressed the searchlight on her forehead, and a beam of light seemed to shoot forward.
Yuan Si swam to the middle, the pond was not big, so she quickly swam to the middle. She judged by the lotus flowers in the water. She swam up and down on her own, and the deepest part was about three meters.
No wonder planting lotus root here will end miserably, such a deep water level is not suitable for planting lotus root at all.
She circled around the few lotus flowers that had survived, and began to prepare to see what could be in the mouth of the lotus pond.
She stood in the middle of the mud, calming her mind and trying to radiate her mental power, which was not very long, and then she vaguely saw something within a meter of her diameter. This is the result of her cultivation day and night for most of the past half a month, which cannot be compared with her heyday, and it is improvisable now.
Yuan Si frowned, it was really different from what she thought, there was something to eat here, but there was not a lot.
She saw loaches in the mud, yellow eels, and snails.
It's just that the number of each is very small, and as far as the eye can see, there are slightly more snails, and there are not many loaches and yellow eels. In a one-meter-square sludge, she actually saw only two yellow eels. This is not enough for her to eat, it is strange that she can be satisfied, but no matter how little, it should be much better than drinking mushy porridge every day. Yuan Si comforted herself in her heart.
She is a person with "eyes", she doesn't need skills to catch the yellow eel or anything at all, she goes down with one paw, goes deep into the silt, and then jams the yellow eel's neck, and pulls it out of the silt with a single force.
She returned and stuffed the eels into the bucket hanging from her waist along the net, and both eels were easily caught. And then there's the loaches.
This thing is small and slippery, and it is more difficult for Yuan Si to catch yellow eels, but for the sake of meat, she is still very patient to catch them one by one.
While she was concentrating, it felt as if something was swimming towards her.
