Chapter Ninety-Six: A State of Recuperation
Xia Kucao was both excited and helpless, just now Zixuan heard the sound of water in the distance, he went to investigate and brought back the good news, there was indeed a river not far ahead, but these three people had no signs of waking up, she checked it and felt that there was nothing wrong, and at the moment she was a little annoyed that her medical skills were not perfect.
He could only carry the three of them to the water source with Zixuan.
Finally dragged it over, sweating profusely, Xia Kucao was ecstatic when she saw the water, and ran over to lie on the riverside is a fierce irrigation, like a buffalo, Zixuan teased disdainfully: "Is it a woman, can you be a little sven!"
"My life is almost gone, what are you doing with Sven!" Xia Kucao raised his hammer head towards Zixuan as a warning: "Don't laugh at me!"
It succeeded in amusing Zixuan, the two filled it with water, and Zixuan said: "You guard them, I'll go hunt some game, I won't go far, just call if there is something!"
Xia Vulgaris said a little frightened: "The trees are all fine, do you still dare to hunt game? Don't bring back a rabbit essence, you obediently guard here, I'll go and dig some edible vegetarian food." ”
Zixuan also had palpitations, and he didn't deny it when he heard her say this, he sat down obediently, and Xia Kucao hurriedly said: "Don't sit down, you build a circular fire pit with stones, make the fire more vigorous, and then cut a bamboo with a thick arm, and I will make you something to eat." ”
Zixuan frowned and blinked, as if he was annoyed and dissatisfied, "Are you telling me?"
Xia Dry grass was slightly flustered, and he moved his gaze to other places and said with a weak heart: "Do you still want to eat delicious food, I'll look for something to eat, it's normal for you to come and burn the fire." ”
Turning to look at Zixuan as if he had discovered some big secret, he smiled coldly: "You won't be angry at nothing, right?"
Zixuan snorted coldly and arrogantly: "You underestimate me too much, a word is a certainty, you'd better find a sumptuous food, so as not to waste my effort, otherwise, you look good!"
Saying that, he also specially pointed to Xia Kucao as if to emphasize, Xia Kucao smiled and said: "I knew you could do it, great, your martial arts are tall and handsome, in this way, you can see if there are any fish in the water by the way, I believe that with such deep internal strength, it is not a problem to hit a few small fish!"
Zixuan wanted to speak and stopped, he seemed to have fallen into a trap and said unconvinced: "Didn't you say that you don't eat meat?"
"Then how can it, I don't look at the clear water flow, the depth is shallow, it's hard to say if there are fish, how can there be fish essence to practice here, right, besides, eating small fish, the essence must be as thick as a pot!"
What Xia Kucao said, Zixuan couldn't accept it, so he had to shake his head and nod again, agreed, and quickly sent Xia Kucao to find something to eat, this mouth is too good to say.
Prunella took the dagger and swept away the long branches of the bushes, which were so vigorous that they surrounded the roots of the tree, and there was no way out.
It's autumn, the branches and leaves are really a bit lost, many vines and plants are only a bare vine, no leaves, it's not easy to identify what is underneath, in order to save energy, you can't see the image on the plan!
I was embarrassed to see a tall oak tree in the distance, and the prunella grass was ecstatic, this kind of oak tree is so wow, the oak tree likes to grow mushrooms all around.
Prunella took a closer look, and as luck would have it, she found a decaying oak branch, on which there were many edible mushrooms, and it was not poisonous.
Prunella squatted down happily, kept the small ones, picked off the big ones, and carried them almost enough, and now there were mushrooms, and some wild fruits, and yams that were shaved out at that time, and it would be nice to find some more staple food to fill the stomach on the way back.
She paid special attention to it, this season, cassava should be ripe, like this cassava is the best to find wild food, but also the most stomach-filling, she can secretly eat a lot of it when she was in the witch clan.
When Xia Kucao came back, he found that there was no one in the camp, and when he saw it, it was getting late, and the three of them were still lying down, where did Zixuan go?
Xia Kucao frowned, worried in her heart, could it be that she was in trouble again, if it was against them, then why were the other three still there?
Xia Kucao put down her things and looked around for nothing, she immediately put her hands on both sides of her mouth as a megaphone and shouted, "Hey, is there anyone?" Zixuan, where are you, hey, Zixuan?
After shouting many times in succession, no one answered, but there was a faint echo, and the summer withered grass had to change its position and continue to shout, startling the birds in the trees, and the water reflected in the setting sun was rippling.
Someone behind her suddenly patted her on the shoulder, and Xia Kucao's first reaction was to pick up the dagger and wave it over, the man was startled, caught the dagger with his bare hands and said, "Hey, it's me!"
Xia Kucao waited to see it clearly, and scolded angrily: "Don't you have long ears, I called you for so long, why don't you answer since you are nearby?"
Zixuan laughed and said, "Are you so nervous about me?"
After saying that, he shook the water on his head, Xia Kucao frowned and looked at his embarrassed appearance and scolded: "Nonsense, the dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, he obviously asked you to guard the eldest brother, but when you came back, you disappeared, and you played peek-a-boo, how did you do this water?"
Zixuan glanced at Xia Kucao, his face was full of unhappiness: "It's not you yet, I have to eat fish, oh, I fought with them with wits and courage, and it was not easy to get it!"
After saying that, he stretched out his right hand, and in that hand there were two fish strung with straw ropes, about the size of a palm, although not large, but it was enough for those of them who were hungry to try it.
Xia Kucao immediately took the fish with a smile, stretched out his thumb and gave Zixuan a terrific look without hesitation: "I knew you could do it, I'll take a look at your fire again." ”
When Zixuan heard this, he suddenly coughed violently, and his face turned red before he said: "I was bent on letting you eat fish, and I haven't had time to burn the fire, so I picked up a lot of wooden sticks, you can burn them yourself, didn't you say that you want to make something delicious for us?"
Xia Kucao sighed and looked at the sky and said: "That's okay, be quick with your hands and feet, go wash all those, we have to find another place to live before dark, this place is too close to the water source, in the position of public target, very passive, the danger will increase, it's better to hide!"
Zixuan nodded, pointed at the three of them and said, "A few of them are really lazy, and if they don't wake up, they won't give them water to drink!"
Xia Kucao smiled: "I see that you are not afraid of them, aren't you the second brother, you take water and try to pour them on, maybe they will wake up, I am sure they will not dare to beat you!"
Zixuan snorted coldly: "What's wrong with this, there is a lot of water here, the idea is good!"
After speaking, he took the water bladder out and poured it directly on Zhao Yun's face, Xia Kucao grinned and shook his head and didn't dare to look at it, this Zixuan really dares to do anything, isn't it stupid, don't wait for three dozen to one.
Xia Kucao heard someone coughing violently, followed by the coughing sound of two other people, Xia Kucao dropped the stone and hurriedly ran over to take a look, the three of them were really woken up by Zi Xuan, Zi Xuan threw the water bladder and clapped his hands, and demonstrated towards Xia Kucao: "Do you have to go out in person?"
Xia Kucao sneered, patted Zhao Yun's back and said, "Big brother, third brother, fourth brother, are you okay?" I was very worried when I saw that you had not woken up for a long time, although this method was a little clumsy, I didn't expect it to be effective!"
The three of them were blindfolded for a few minutes before gradually relieving themselves, Zhao Yun looked at Xia Kucao incredulously and said, "You saved us?"
Xia Kucao hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, I have no martial arts and no mana, how can I save you, it was the second brother who saved you first!"
Zixuan wanted to speak and stopped, his mouth opened but he didn't say anything, Xia Kucao smiled proudly, he shouldn't refuse to invite credit for such a good thing, she is a woman, maybe it's just luck, this kind of thing is nothing to be proud of, all year round, there are three major passes, relying on others more times!
The three of them stood up and bowed to Zixuan to thank them, a happy scene, Zixuan's position among the five people was more prominent, and his leadership ability was also convincing, increasing the closeness of the team, why not.
And she and Zixuan tacitly started the dinner in an orderly manner, Xia Kucao split the bamboo, which was thick in his arm, and made half of the bamboo rice, and then put the fruit and ingredients in it together, covered it with a lid, and simmered on the fire, making a sweet bamboo cassava.
The two fish are made of bamboo tube fish soup, grilled although fragrant, but one person is not enough to eat, and the nutrition can not be supplemented, and one person drinks some soup is different, the same ingredients get completely different nutrition, plus the autumn wind and cold waterside, to some soup is not happy, everyone eats heartily this meal, almost nine and ten will not be hungry.
You know, this is a business that has not eaten the last meal, and everyone cherishes it very much, and it is almost numb and dark after eating, so Prunella took everyone to the spot she picked when she was looking for something before.
The place was backed by a large rock, three meters high, standing abruptly in the middle of the mountain, covered with trees, but at the bottom of the rock there was a sloping bare place, like a cave and not a cave, although it was not very good, but it was better than this belly and back to be attacked.
Now everyone is leaning against the rock, their backs are always safe, even if they are asleep, the enemy will only attack from the front, and there is a better chance of winning, everyone is very satisfied with the place that Prunella is looking for, so they sit in the middle with Prunella, Zixuan and Zhao Yun sit on both sides of Prunella.
Qi Zheng and Ruofeng lit two particularly large fires, standing on both sides to alert the beasts, and they sat in front of the fire to add firewood and fire, and took turns to watch the night.
The autumn night was slightly cool, although the prunella grass still felt cold sitting in the middle of the fire, she saw that the two people next to her had a tendency to gather, she silently moved her position, sat next to the fire, and after a while, she saw Zhao Yun and Zixuan snuggling together, Prunella was stunned, but fortunately she ran fast!
She said to Ruofeng, who was on duty at night: "You rest for a while, I'll keep vigil, I'm asleep, it's cold, you and they simmer together." ”
Ruofeng was a little embarrassed and said: "No need, little sister, you can sleep again, how can I let a woman keep vigil for the four of us big men!"
