Xiaoye told everyone to find a branch to learn to fish "water meat".

Uncle Caoba said happily: "I also came to learn to fish for "water meat" to see if I could catch a plow. Xiaoye gave the branch to Uncle Caoba, and tied the cow intestine on the tip of the branch, Uncle Caoba put the tip of the branch tied to the cow intestine into the water, and the "water meat" immediately came up to swallow the cow intestine, and Uncle Caoba picked up the branch and fished the "water meat". Uncle Caoba was as happy as a child, and shouted: "Catch it, catch it, come again!" Xiaoye cut off the cow intestine with a stone knife, and there was still a section of cow intestine left on the branch, and Xiao Ye said: "You can still fish, put it in the water quickly." Uncle Caoba just put the cow intestines into the water, and was swallowed by a big "water meat" into his stomach, Uncle Caoba lifted a branch in his hand and fished a particularly large "water meat", Uncle Caoba was interested, and shouted happily: "I caught another big one, hurry up and come again!" He fished one after another, and he was reluctant to leave.

After a while, everyone learned to fish for "water meat", and the whole river kept shouting, as if playing a game, and the laughter was non-stop, so a lively scene! A total of more than 300 "water meat" were caught in front of the day, and everyone happily got these "water meat" back to the fire.

Eating barbecue "water meat" that nightEveryone ate "water meat" for the first time, and after eating, they all said: "This fire barbecue "water meat" is so delicious!" We've never eaten this delicacy. ”

Uncle Caoba said to everyone: "Today's fishing of water meat is only enough for 3 per person, after eating, we will eat barbecue beef, next time we will catch more, so that everyone is full." There is another thing to say, tonight I see everyone smoking, this is very good, the smoke is fragrant and refreshing, we have to keep smoking, so we keep the fire. From now on, I will pick up every day, and except for women and children, anyone who does not smoke can only eat bloody raw meat. ”

At this time, Xiaoye said to Uncle Caoba: "Tomorrow Caosan and I will help the Huacao tribe and the Qingcao tribe light the fire, teach them to collect tobacco leaves, roll cigarettes and smoke, and teach them to hunt bison and fish for "water meat", and we will be back in a few days." Uncle Caoba smiled and said, "Okay, you should go to Bangzhu to help them, you guys bring some barbecued beef when you go, let them taste these delicacies first, and when you go, take the red horse away."

Early the next morning, everyone ate barbecue around the fire, Cao San rode a horse, Xiao Ye led the red horse, said goodbye to Uncle Caoba, and walked towards the flower and grass tribe. Cao San told Xiao Ye: "This red horse is smaller than my white horse, but a fierce horse, if you can subdue it, it is a good horse." ”

They walked, while playing, Xiaoye was not in a hurry to ride a horse, found that there was a good grass, so let the horse eat grass, he was close to the horse at any time, love the horse, to the river to take it to drink water, for it to bathe, with a small branch for it to comb its hair, with the hand to touch its head, this red horse is so comfortable, began to have a good impression of Xiaoye.

The leader of the Flower and Grass Tribe is named Hua Da Niang, in her 45s, medium stature, melon seed face and big eyes, and black hair up to her waist, she is decisive and fair, and her prestige is very high, leading 102 people of the Flower and Grass Tribe. Dressed in animal skins and living in caves along the nameless river, they hunted small wild animals for a living, and a year ago they built stone pens and started raising sheep, raising more than 30 sheep and sheep. In this tribe, women are in charge, and women have the final say in everything. It is still difficult to maintain the life of more than 100 people every day, and there are often two wolves stealing sheep, although there are special guards, but they are simply unable to prevent it, and they are still stolen by wolves. Therefore, Aunt Hua has nothing to do and worries about it all day long......

More than ten miles below the Flower and Grass Tribe is the Green Grass Tribe, their leader is Qing Da Niang, 42 years old, she is tall, with a garden face and big eyes, a self-curled black hair shoulder-length, with a man's appearance, full of spirit in speaking and doing, leading the 110 people of the Flower and Grass Tribe. This tribe is also headed by women, and every family is headed by women. People wore animal skins and hunted small wild animals for a living, and they lived in caves along the river. In recent years, it has also built a stone fence for breeding, raising more than 20 large and small sheep. For many years, people were afraid of danger and did not dare to hunt large wild animals, so they had to live a difficult life due to insufficient food.

After Xiaoye and Caosan bathed the horse from the river, they didn't walk long before they arrived at the Flower and Grass Tribe, and found the cave of the Flower Lady, and the Grass San first called out affectionately: "How are you old man?" ”

Aunt Hua said, "Ah! It turned out to be a horse rider, do you have time to go here? Please sit on the stone bench. ”

Cao San introduced: "He is the little leaf of the alpine tribe, and he has sent valuable fire to several of our tribes, and we have all lived a good life with fire, and today I have sent you fire, and I want you to live a good life with fire." ”

Aunt Hua didn't understand what Cao San said, so she said, "What kind of fire, I don't know what you're talking about." ”

Xiao Ye smiled and said, "Cao San, you ride a horse and bring Aunt Qing and tell them together, so it's better and faster." Cao San answered, and galloped away on horseback.

Xiao Ye asked Aunt Hua: "Aunt Hua, how is your life?" Is the daily harvest enough to eat? ”

Mrs. Hua replied: "Our tribe has more than 100 people to eat every day, very difficult, we raised more than 30 sheep, thinking that when it rains to hunt and harvest a small harvest, you can kill the sheep to eat, who knows that these two wolves, often steal and eat our sheep, really can't help it, so that I often worry about this." ”

Xiao Ye said with confidence: "Aunt Hua, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to help you eliminate the wolves, and the tigers that are more ferocious than wolves have also been eliminated."

Aunt Hua heard Xiao Ye say that she could destroy the wolf, so she said happily: "Daqi, if you can really help us eliminate the wolf, then thank you so much......"

Aunt Hua is having a homely time with Xiao Yela, and the white horse is camel with the grass three and the green lady is here. Hua Lady and Qing Lady are old friends, often go to the past, Hua Niang warmly beckoned Qing Lady to sit, Cao San said: "The two old people sit down, today I and Xiao Ye will entertain, please eat delicious." ”

Cao San took two pieces of barbecue beef, cut them into slices with a stone knife, and gave them to the two aunts to eat, and after the two took the roast beef and ate it, they kept saying: "It's delicious, it's delicious, it's delicious!" ”

Xiao Ye took a puff of cigarette and said: "This beef is barbecued with fire, we eat barbecue meat there every day, if you also want to eat barbecue every time, please ask Aunt Hua to arrange a few people to pick up hay, dry leaves and dry firewood, I use the cigarette butt fire in my hand to light the fire, you can burn the meat to eat." ”

Aunt Hua said happily: "Okay, I'll arrange it immediately." So, she busied herself with arranging for someone to collect hay and dry firewood.

Xiaoye followed the horse and led the horse to a place where there was grass by the river and let it graze. He looked for a place to burn the fire, and under his command, the dry wood was piled up on his designated lawn, and Xiaoye quickly lit the dry grass with a cigarette butt fire, and the fire was lit. People rushed to see the excitement, and Aunt Hua said happily: "Everyone go back and bring the meat to be cooked and delicious." ”

After a while, people brought the meat, learned from the small leaves, put the meat on the branches, and barbecued it before eating. Everyone has never eaten such delicious meat, and they are so happy that they keep applauding it deliciously.

Aunt Hua was even more happy and said: "I really didn't expect that I could still eat such fragrant and beautiful barbecue meat, children, hurry up and kill two big fat sheep, so that everyone can have a beautiful meal." ”

A few young men agreed: "Good! "He took a stone knife in his hand and went to the stone pen to kill the sheep. Hua Lady keeps inviting Qing Lady to eat barbecue. Aunt Qing said: "I am in my 40s, so I know what it means to be delicious, and we also have to burn a big fire and barbecue meat to eat." ”

Xiao Ye said: "Two aunts, I will invite you to eat more beautiful "water meat" later." You eat slowly, and I'll be back in a while. ”

Xiao Ye came to the place where the sheep was killed, and said to the people who killed the sheep: "Give me the sheep intestines, I will be useful." The killer of the sheep said, "This sheep has no intestines to eat." Xiao Ye said: "I know I can't eat it, I have other uses." ”

The sheep killer gave all the sheep intestines to Xiaoye, Xiaoye called the grass three, came to the nameless river, cut the intestines into sections with a stone knife, broke a branch, tied the sheep intestines to the tip of the branch, and put it in the water. When Xiaoye just fished one, then Cao San also fished one, and the two of you and I caught one, and soon caught more than 100 fish. Xiao Ye said: "Let's get these "water meat" back for everyone to eat the real deliciousness. ”

Xiaoye and Caosan brought back the water and meat, everyone was taken aback, and Aunt Hua said in surprise: "Can you eat the things in this water?" ”

Xiao Ye smiled and said: "These "water meat" can be eaten, everyone uses a branch to penetrate the mouth of the "water meat" into the mouth and eat it after roasting it with fire, it is fresh, tender and fragrant, much better than mutton, but to eat it slowly, you must pay attention to bone spurs. ”

Xiaoye put on the "water meat" barbecue with a branch, everyone learned from him, Xiaoye barbecued two at a time, and gave the two ladies to taste after the roast, and the green lady shouted excitedly after eating: "It's so delicious, it's so delicious!" ”

Aunt Hua also said: "I really didn't expect that the "water meat" swimming in this water is better than mutton." Today, the arrival of Xiaoye and Kusan has made such a big change in our lives, and we should be grateful to the two guests. ”

Xiao Ye said: "Don't thank us, people should help each other." I have a few more things to help you, to help you learn to roll cigarettes and smoke, and everyone has to learn to keep the fire. I also want to help you get rid of the wolves, and then there is a lack of food you eat, and it is not enough to add "water and meat" in the future, I want to help you learn to hunt and kill wild animals, so that you can have endless meat. When everyone is full, they will do it one by one with us. Now I started to smoke, and everyone saw this fire, it was lit by the cigarette butt in my hand, and as long as everyone learned to smoke, they were not afraid of the rain to extinguish the fire, and all men would make a cigarette. ”

Aunt Hua said: "Thank you Xiaoye for your great help to us, in order to keep the fire, give me a cigarette too, I must learn to smoke, women are family, they should learn to smoke." Fire is so precious that it must not be lost. ”

Qing Da Niang said: "I also want a cigarette, and I must learn to smoke in order to keep the fire." The cigarettes prepared by Xiaoye were 80 cigarettes, and except for children, both men and women happily learned to smoke.
