Xiao Ding and Yue Yurou planned to make the clam meat for breakfast, but they couldn't open the clam shell.

"Actually, we don't need to open the shell." Xiao Ding's eyes rolled and he came up with an idea, and then said to Yue Yurou.

"How can you eat mussel meat without opening the mussel shell?" Yue Yurou asked.

"We can just put them on the fire and roast them, and when they are cooked, the shells will naturally open." Xiao Ding said with a smile.

"Oh, let's go out and pick up some branches." Yue Yurou understood Xiao Ding's thoughts.

"Well, I'll just go out, and you're here looking at the mushrooms and the night pearl." Xiao Ding said.

"We also need to bring the baggage from the trees. Those mushrooms need to be packed in a jade box, otherwise it will not be easy to preserve. Yue Yurou said.

Xiao Ding looked around and felt that this snake cave should be very safe, and ordinary people would not dare to come in, so he responded: "Okay, let's go out together." ”

The two returned to the vicinity of the entrance of the snake cave along the same road, Xiao Ding stopped, listened to the fact that there was no movement outside the snake cave, and cautiously came to the entrance of the cave, looked around carefully, and made sure that there was no one around, and then he and Yue Yurou drilled out of the snake cave.

The two took their baggage down on the tree where they had rested last night. I found some branches under the rocky mound.

Last night the people of Tenlomon had made a fire to roast meat, and they saw that wooden sticks were used to carry snakes, so they left a lot of branches in the resting place.

With the burden and wooden branches, Xiao Ding and the others went into the snake cave and returned to the vicinity of the waterhole.

"Brother Ding, you make a fire and barbecue, I'll take a bath, don't peek at me." Yue Yurou said with a red face. After going into the mountains for so many days, sleeping in the open air, and never taking a bath, she was itching.

"You want to go into the waterhole? There's a giant clam there, it's going to catch you, so don't go! Xiao Ding said worriedly.

"Don't worry, I don't go into the pool, I just wash on the other side of the stream." Yue Yurou couldn't help but feel warm when she heard that Xiao Ding cared about herself.

"That's good, you go wash it, I won't peek at you!" Xiao Ding said firmly. But I was thinking in my heart, I don't peek at you, but I will peek at you two, three, countless eye drops....... Wouldn't it be unreasonable for such a young and beautiful beauty to take a bath in front of her, and not to peek.

"Brother Ding, if you dare to peek at me, I will ignore you in the future." Yue Yurou's face was flushed. Her baggage had been opened as she spoke.

Yue Yurou's baggage contained not only the ashes of their fellow disciples, but also some relics of her master. She pulled out one of her master's robes, took it to the stream, and slowly took off the layers of clothes she was wearing.

The outer layer of these clothes were taken off from the dead body when she and Xiaoding came to the vicinity of the mountain top in order to keep out the cold.

It's not that cold in the snake cave, and there are hot springs, so even if you strip naked, you won't feel cold.

Xiao Ding found three stones and arranged them in a zigzag shape, lit a fire in the middle, and when the fire started, he put the giant mussels on the fire and roasted them.

Although he promised not to peek, his actions were very dishonest. After lighting two fires, he secretly turned around to peek at Yue Yurou.

The water in the stream was shallow, only reaching Yue Yurou's knees. She turned her back to Xiao Ding, bent over, picked up the water, and gently washed her body.

Xiao Ding couldn't help but be thrilled when she saw her delicate skin, slender waist, upright beauty, and long jade legs. Hurriedly turned around and didn't dare to look again, for fear that he wouldn't be able to control it and do something he shouldn't do.

The giant clam was roasted by the fire for a while, and then it was so hot that it opened its shell and spat foam out of its mouth. Xiao Ding saw that there were still beads in the open mouth of the giant mussel. He picked up two thick wooden sticks and stuffed them into the edge of the mouth of the giant mussel, so that it could not close the muzzle. Then he stretched out his hand and plucked out the few remaining night pearls in the mouth of the giant mussel.

As concocted, the beads in the mouth of another giant clam also reached Xiao Ding's hand. Xiao Ding counted, counting the five before, there are now a total of eleven night pearls the size of a dragon's eye.

That's a fortune! Xiao Ding muttered happily.

The giant mussels were roasted for a while, and then they all died. After a while, there was a faint smell of meat.

Xiao Ding had already buttoned the mouth of the giant mussel, which was equivalent to stewing meat with a lid on the pot.

He was guarding the fire to barbecue, although his heart was always itchy, and he always thought about peeking at Yue Yurou a few more times, but he finally held back. After all, when he lived with those women on that desert island, he didn't see the bodies of those women, not to mention that now he already has a beloved in his heart, and when he thinks of the civet cat (Qing'er), he has no interest in peeking.

"Brother Ding, did you peek at me taking a shower just now?" After Yue Yurou took a bath, she got dressed and came behind Xiao Ding.

"Absolutely nothing! You little Brother Ding, I stand up to the sky, a dignified man, how can you do such a dirty thing! Xiao Ding said with an oath.

"I believe in you, little Ding! Actually, if you just peeked, I wouldn't be angry. Yue Yurou said with a red face, her voice getting lower and lower, and in the end, she lowered her head and peeked at Xiao Ding's expression.

"Uh-" Xiao Ding's face was black, and he said in his heart, could it be that this little girl liked herself? But don't be like this, you already have someone in your heart, how can you tolerate others? The second girl in the family, he doesn't know what to do!

"The mussels are cooked, let's have breakfast!" Xiao Ding hurriedly diverted the topic.

Xiao Ding cushioned with a wooden branch, took two giant mussels from the fire, and pried open the shells with a dagger, and the smell of meat immediately spread.

"It smells so good! I can't wait! Yue Yurou sniffed and said intoxicatedly.

Xiao Ding saw that there was still some broken soil in the mussel shell, some of which had been sprinkled into the platform before, and some of which had fallen into it when he had just used a wooden stick to support the mussel's mouth, so he said, "Before eating, we should wash the broken soil first." ”

Xiao Ding cut off the mussel meat with a dagger, and after taking it to the waterhole and washing it, he and Yue Yurou feasted happily.

In fact, when people walk in the rivers and lakes, they can't take care of so much in many cases. Today there is a waterhole around them, and if there is no water around them, and the food gets a little dirt, they won't care too much.

After eating breakfast, Xiao Ding wrapped the eleven night pearls the size of a dragon's eye together and put them in his arms. In Xiao Ding's heart, this thing is a treasure, and he must carry it with him to feel at ease. So, his chest bulged, and Yue Yurou couldn't help but secretly laugh when she looked at him.

Xiao Ding found three or four more empty jade boxes, put all those mushrooms into the jade boxes, and stuffed them all into Yue Yurou's package. Anyway, these mushrooms were also for Yue Yurou's alchemy, and there weren't many things she wrapped, so she just put them there directly.

The two of them only ate one mussel, and neither of them had eaten it all. There was another giant clam left, which Xiao Ding wrapped in a rag that he had torn off and put it in the package. Fill all the water bags you have with you.

Only then did he take Yue Yurou and walk towards the outside of the cave.

When passing by the huge snake, Yue Yurou tugged at Xiao Ding's sleeve and said, "Brother Xiao Ding, should we cut a piece of snake skin and bring it back, this snake skin is very tough, it is best used as leather armor for self-defense, and ordinary swords can't pierce it." ”

Xiao Ding stopped, hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, we already have a lot of things with us." Although the snakeskin is good, it has been dried for a long time, and it is too hard to carry, and it may not be able to cook it soft when you bring it back. ”

"Alright then, let's get out." Yue Yurou said.

The two came to the vicinity of the entrance of the cave, checked the surroundings, and after making sure that there was no one, they drilled out of the snake cave and were about to leave, when Xiao Ding suddenly stopped.

"I suddenly remembered one thing...... Xiao Ding said.
