Chapter 39: Encounter
Listening to the hostess's loud snoring, Bai Jiao got up lightly and rolled up the animal skin and put it in a hidden place behind the tent, if the hostess saw it, she would definitely throw it away directly, and then beat and scolded herself for not giving herself food, in fact, since she came to this house, she has never eaten what the master gave.
It was too early, and the moon in the sky still had a shallow shadow, and the night had not yet completely faded. The host's house was at the back of the tribe, and Bai Jiao tiptoed around the tent to the back of a large rock in the north, and looked left and right before digging out one of the taro buried in the soil.
She has known the preciousness of food since she was a child, so Ling Fei selflessly sued her for food, she must keep this secret, of course, if Ling Fei sues others by herself, it is also her own meaning.
Carefully set up a fire, put the taro next to the fire, Ling Fei told her not to burn it on the fire, otherwise it would turn into gray carbon, she remembered, exactly as she said, the fire burned, it was a lot warmer, Bai Jiao showed a satisfied smile and leaned forward.
The male owner Lan Li exchanged food for himself as if he was trying to have a child, so the hostess didn't like her very much and didn't give her food, Bai Jiao didn't feel any sadness, she couldn't eat enough when she was in the clan, and the place where the clan lived was not suitable for hunting, so it was common for her to be hungry, she had long been used to it, although she would be beaten here from time to time, but she was not depressed, because at least it was safe here, and she also knew Ling Fei.
Although Ling Fei is also a slave, Bai Jiao feels that she is too smart and powerful, she can turn soft grass into a grass basket that can hold a lot of things, she can find food, she also knows a lot of herbs, and she also taught herself several kinds when she was on the road, which made Bai Jiao ecstatic, because a tribe only recognizes and uses herbs when sacrifices, but sacrifices never tell others, but Ling Fei sues herself without reservation, her calm appearance seems to say that this is not something to be surprised at all, This made Bai Jiao admire her even more.
At this time, there was a fragrance next to the fire, Bai Jiao's eyes lit up, and she was about to pick it up, when she suddenly heard a small sound behind her, thinking that the owner was awake, Bai Jiao quickly retracted her hand and looked back.
There was a tall man standing behind him, he looked very ordinary, but his eyes were very bright, Bai Jiao knew him, this person was a tribal warrior when he was changing salt, I don't know what he was doing here, Bai Jiao stood up uneasily.
Long Hua is turn to guard at night, and now it is the time to go back to sleep after changing shifts, but when he walks here, he sees the fire, because this time is too early to barbecue, he is afraid that there is a fire somewhere, so he came to take a look, he doesn't care about anything other than hunting, so he doesn't know that the woman in front of him is one of the slaves they exchanged back.
"It's getting colder and colder now, don't come out so early, if you have a fever, it will be troublesome." This season is also very easy to get hot, Long Hua said routinely.
"Okay."
Bai Jiao was very scared at this time, she was afraid that Long Hua would find the taro, but she couldn't dare to let people go, the tip of her nose was sweating, and Leng Buding saw his arm that was constantly oozing blood, and quickly said, "Are you injured?" I have medicine to stop bleeding, you come with me. After speaking, he looked at Long Hua nervously.
In fact, it was just a scratch that was not too strict, because she wanted to get Longhua out of here, Bai Jiao thought of a way to apply medicine.
Long Hua didn't feel anything about the wound, but when he heard that this woman recognized the herbs to stop bleeding, he became interested and nodded, "Okay." ”
Hearing this word, Bai Jiao relieved herself, men have never been very talkative, but they can see their meaning from their expressions, for example, Long Hua looks interested now.
Led the people to the west side of the tent full of all kinds of leftover bones, Bai Jiao took out the herbs placed in the shade, put them in her mouth and chewed them carefully, and then carefully applied them to Long Hua's arm wound, and said in the tone of Ling Fei: "Don't touch the water or other dirty things in the wound, be careful not to press it when you sleep." Then he handed him two wilting herbs, "If the medicine on the wound is dropped, chew it up and apply it as I just did." ”
Since she came to the tribe, she has been out once, that is, when she went to dig taro yesterday, these herbs were all she followed Ling Feicai on the road, with a little less, she was very distressed, but the man in front of her was very gentle, and being with him was not as depressing as in the master's house, so she was willing to take out her own herbs, but she handed them out, and her eyes were still staring.
Looking at her reluctant look, Long Hua smiled, this woman is really interesting.
Seeing Longhua leave, Bai Jiao hurriedly returned to the fire, at this time the fragrance was stronger than just now, regardless of the hot hands, Bai Jiao quickly peeled off the hard shell outside the taro and bit it.
It was soft, very sweet, really delicious, and she didn't care about tasting it, Bai Jiao quickly gobbled the taro into her stomach, and finally got the white sand stained in the hard shell and ate it.
After eating, the stomach was warm and very comfortable, Bai Jiao smiled with satisfaction, and then quickly wiped off the traces of the fire, and then returned to the outside of the tent, at this time there was movement in many tents, Bai Jiao quickly set up a fire and began to barbecue, if the hostess got up before these were not good, I am afraid that she would be beaten again.
When the smell of barbecue wafted up, there was a rustling sound from the tent, and Bai Jiao immediately shrank her shoulders and lowered her head.
The curtain of the tent was lifted, and a tall and strong woman came out of it, this was Bai Jiao's mistress Shi Lan.
Seeing the hateful slave next to the fire who was almost shrunk into a ball, Shi Lan snorted hard, and her thick legs reached over and kicked the woman in the stomach, "Why are you still on the fire when you are all burnt?" You can't even roast the meat well, you slave is really raised for nothing, and if you don't be honest, I'll throw you out to feed the beasts. ”
The sharp pain in her stomach made Bai Jiao break out in a cold sweat, but she didn't dare to hum, if she dared to make a sound, the hostess would definitely beat her more fiercely, which she found after being beaten several times.
Seeing that the waste didn't dare to move, Shi Lan's heart was very hot, and she wanted to continue kicking, but her movements stopped because of the movement in the tent, and Lan Li got up.
Count yourself lucky, Shi Lan glared at Bai Jiao fiercely, picked up the roasted meat and walked into the tent, leaving only Bai Jiao who was holding her stomach and hurting her stomach.
When her stomach didn't hurt so much, Bai Jiao got up to put out the fire and put the messy wood together, today is the collection day, she has to go out with the hostess to pick fruits, take advantage of this time to make a basket first.
The golden light rose from the east, the cold breath seemed to be dispelled, as soon as the sun came out, the surroundings became warm, even the wind was very gentle, it seems that today is a good day to gather, Bai Jiao likes to go out to the tribe very much, so that she can find something to eat and pick some herbs she knows, she hopes to meet Ling Fei, and then tell her that the taro is really delicious. xh118
