The five of them walked more than ten miles that day, because Sister Hehe was locked up for a few days, her body and spirit were greatly affected, and she couldn't walk, and there were still a few miles to reach the Nanhe tribe, so she had to go back to Sister He, and Sandongzi walked on their backs, walking slowly, and the two sisters were on the back of their beloved man, feeling so comfortable, so sweet, and fell asleep after a while. The two men walked on their backs with their beloved woman, although they were tired and sweating, they felt very happy and happy in their hearts.

In the afternoon, the five finally returned to the Nanhe tribe. Niangniang was extremely happy to see that Xiao Ye and the five people had come back safely, and came to the cave where Xiao Ye and the four people lived to visit, and sent big and red fruits. Niangniang saw that Xiao Ye and the four were very tired, so she said: "You are already very tired, take a good rest, we will talk about anything tomorrow," After speaking, she and Sandongzi walked to the cave and returned to the cave where they lived.

Niangniang asked Sandongzi: "This time it should go smoothly, right?" ”

Sandongzi followed Xiao Ye's example, took a puff of cigarette and replied: "This time I went to help the six tribes, it was really dangerous, I almost lost my life, if it wasn't for Xiao Ye's cleverness, we wouldn't be able to come back." ”

Niangniang also lit a long cigarette, took a puff and hurriedly asked, "Sandongzi, what happened?" You speak slowly. ”

Sandongzi talked about the situation of the past ten days one by one, especially in the situation of the Nanshan tribe in more detail, when Sandongzi talked about several people in danger, Niangniang was particularly nervous when she listened, when Sandongzi talked about how Xiao Ye found a way to kill the Nanshan tiger, Nanshan wolf, and save Sister Hemei, Niangniang said excitedly: "This Xiao Ye is so smart, Brother Nanlin 20 people not only did not save people, but also killed two people, Xiao Ye killed two villains and rescued two sisters, it is really not easy!" Sandongzi, go back and rest. ”

In the evening, Niangniang sent eight bamboo tube meat to Xiao Ye's four people, and said: "Xiao Ye, this is the bamboo tube meat I made myself, just cooked, you eat slowly, and rest well after eating." ”

Xiao Ye said very politely: "Niangniang, please sit down, thank you so much for making bamboo tube meat for us personally." ”

Niangniang smiled and said, "No thanks, you eat slowly, I'll come back tomorrow." As she spoke, she walked away from the cave.

The four of Xiaoye haven't eaten bamboo tube meat for more than ten days, and they feel particularly fragrant and beautiful when they eat bamboo tube meat this night, and of course there are reasons why they are in a good mood. After a while, the eight bamboo tubes of meat were eaten, and they were all very full, and Xiaoye Tongcao San each smoked a cigarette and went back to their own forks to sleep.

Sister He left Xiao Ye for a few nights, she didn't sleep peacefully, tonight it's time for her to be coquettish, she pillowed Xiao Ye's hand, slept in Xiao Ye's arms, and said coquettishly: "I really want to die of you, if I leave you, I can't live anymore, especially these days when I was robbed of Nanshan Tiger in his cave, I think, this is over, I will never see you, Nanmei died in order to help me, especially when I heard that Brother Nanlin brought 20 people to save us, and two people died, at this time I was desperate, and almost hit the rock wall and died, I really can't imagine that you and Cao San killed two bad people and saved us, otherwise we would have died in that hole. Sister He cried sadly.

Xiao Ye hugged her tightly and comforted her, "Aren't we okay now, in the future, I won't leave you, no one can take you away, you can sleep comfortably tonight......"

Sister He's crying this night is more than Sister He's, she has suffered the biggest injury to her soul in this life, she didn't say much, she cried when she thought of that terrible scene, and hugged Cao San tightly, for fear that Cao San would leave her. Cao San kept comforting her, hugged her tightly, fell asleep late at night, and was awakened by nightmares several times......

The next morning, Niangniang and Sandongzi sent a large package of roast beef, Xiao Ye said very happily: "Thank you Niangniang for your concern, you sent us bamboo tube meat last night, and you sent us roast beef this morning, you really care about us so much." ”

Niangniang smiled and said: "You went to help the six tribes this time, and you have experienced such a big risk, all your experiences, Sandongzi has told me, it is good that you can come back safely, take a good rest for a while, don't think about leaving for the time being, and tell you a good news, the three horses have been tamed very well through more than half a month of feeding, and you can take them to training today." ”

Xiao Ye listened to the spirit, and said excitedly: "That's just great, I still want a red horse, I see that Cao San wants that big black horse, and another red horse will be ridden by Sandongzi, at least make friends with them for 10 days, and after having a certain feeling, you can ride it, I think these 10 days and rest, and taming horses, you can also try to burn clay pottery." ”

Cao San and San Dongzi also said happily: "Okay, according to what Xiao Ye said, we will start training horses, no matter where we go in the future, it will be fast and convenient." ”

Xiaoye and the four people ate early, together with Sandongzi, came to the woods, Xiaoye and Sandongzi each led a red horse, Cao San led the big black horse, went to a place with a lot of grass to let the horse eat grass, and after eating, he took it to the river to bathe the horse. Sister Hehe also came to help, and brought thin branches to comb the horse, which was very comfortable. Every day, the horses were led to graze, bathed, brushed, scratched, and stroked their heads, and after five days, the horses gradually developed a good impression of them.

Xiao Ye said to Cao San and the other three: "Cao San and I will try to make clay pottery tomorrow, only participate in bathing the horses in the afternoon, and lead the horses to feed the grass by Sister He, Sister He will do it, and after 10 days, we will discuss the next step." ”

Cao San smoked a cigarette and replied: "I see that the arrangement of the small leaves is very good, I have also seen, the soil here is relatively clayey, not far from the spring, the soil there is red and yellow, I think, using this soil to make clay pottery can be successful." ”

After hearing this, Xiao Ye said happily: "Okay, tomorrow we will go there to get soil, if we can do it successfully, it will be great." ”

The next day, after eating tortured meat, Sister He and Sister He led the horse to graze. Xiaoye smoked a cigarette, held a stone axe, together with Cao San, found a red-yellow, very sticky soil, used a stone axe to tidy up a flat wall near Shuitai, dug up the red-yellow soil, put it on the flat wall, poured water, rubbed it with his hands, stepped on it with his feet, after a while, the soil became sticky and soft, Xiaoye used all the skills of the water baby, and soon made a soil plate, Cao San also learned to make a soil plate, the two of them sweated and did not rest, through a day's efforts, each made five soil plates, five soil bowls. The two of them took the earthen bowl back to the cave and put it away.

Xiaoye said to Cao San: "This weather is very hot, put it at the entrance of the cave three steps away, it will dry soon, and then take it to the big fire to test the burning, if the burning is successful, we will do it again." Tomorrow we will train horses again and learn to ride them. ”

Cao San said, "Yes, we can try riding a horse tomorrow to see if this horse is willing to let us ride it." ”

On this day, the weather was fine, Xiao Ye and the four people led two horses to the grassy place to eat, after eating, they led it to the river to eat water, and then led the horse to the smooth grass, Xiao Ye said: "Let's try this red horse first, and the black horse of the grass three will try again later." ”

After he finished speaking, he took Sister He and put it on the back of the red horse, the red horse had no intention of resisting, only raised his head, and swung his tail a few times, and stepped on the grass a few times, Xiao Ye smiled and said to Sister He: "Sister He, you have to ride steadily, I want to walk with it." ”

Sister He nodded. Xiao Ye stroked the horse's head twice, then led the horse slowly forward, walked about 50 steps, and led it back. The horse walked very easily, and Xiao Ye took Sister He off the horse's back. Sister He was very happy, she stroked the horse's head with her hand, and kissed the horse's face with her face, and she found a thin branch to comb the horse's hair, scratch the itch, and the red horse was so comfortable.

Then, Cao San still carried the river girl and put it on the back of the big black horse, and also stroked its head with his hand, it did not mean to resist, Cao San led it and walked about 50 steps, and led it back, and walked very easily. This first test horse ride went well, everyone was very happy, Xiao Ye said with a smile: "We will lead it farther tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, I will try to ride a horse with Caosan, no one will lead it, see how it performs." Walk! We took a shower for it to ......."

After a few days of taming, it was very successful, and I began to walk with it, and gradually walked slowly without leading it, and walked briskly, and now both people can run easily on it. Xiao Ye and the four people were very happy, Xiao Ye said: "In the future, we will help people, riding horses is fast and convenient, and we will no longer walk." ”

Cao San continued: "I think we can test the earthen plate tomorrow, and if it is successful, we will be able to do it soon." ”

Xiao Ye said happily: "Okay! Tomorrow morning, I will try to burn clay pottery in the big fire. ”

The day is dawn, the weather is still very good, eat early, the river sister and the river sister led the horse to the grass to graze, Xiaoye and the grass three, each with the dry soil bowl to the fire, Xiaoye used the skills learned in the water baby, he was at the fire, dug a soil pit with a stone axe, put the soil plate, the soil bowl in the earthen pit, put dry firewood on top and burned, they smoked, did not leave the fire, and continued to add dry firewood to the fire, in the afternoon it was time to eat late, Xiaoye used a wooden stick to get the firewood on the earthen pit, and after the earthen plate cooled, Taking a look from the earthen pit, Xiao Ye exclaimed in surprise: "It's a success!" I tried to burn at home many times and failed, and this time I finally succeeded! "The plates and bowls are all red, and every one of them is intact. Xiaoye and Cao San discussed and decided: give Niangniang two clay plates, two clay bowls, and two sets of clay plates and bowls to Sandongzi and Nanshan brothers. There are still four sets left, and each of the four Xiaoye has one set.

Niangniang likes clay plates, clay bowls, plates for meat, and bowls for drinking soup, which are very convenient to use. He arranged 10 people to learn from Xiao Ye to make clay bowls and plates. Another 10 days passed, and Xiaoye and Cao San, each made 80 sets of earthen bowls and plates, all of which were placed in the cave to cool and dry, ready to be burned again after returning from the outside. The 10 people arranged by Niangniang learned to make a total of 300 sets of earthen bowls and plates, and Xiaoye repeatedly taught them to wait for the earthen bowls and plates to dry before they could be burned, and how to fire them also gave a detailed explanation.

That night, Xiao Ye and the four of them came to the cave where Niangniang lived, and said goodbye to Niangniang, Xiao Ye smiled and said: "Niangniang, we are going to send it tomorrow, to help those who have no fire, during this time, Niangniang is very concerned about us, especially the two horses that sent us, it helped a lot, we went to ride a horse this time, it was fast and convenient, and the four of us expressed our gratitude to Niangniang!" ”

Niangniang took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "Xiao Ye, you are too polite, you helped light our fire; The food you ate was obtained with the help of the hunt, and during this time, the traps continued to catch wild animals; You caught the horses; Our good life is also brought by you; You are great benefactors, and I should thank you. Xiao Ye said that he wanted to go out to help people, but now he knows that there are dozens of tribes that have no fire, and there are even more who don't know, what is the situation of these tribes? I don't understand at all, there must still be people like Nanshan Tiger and Nanshan Wolf, how many are there? We don't know how dangerous it must be, and to be honest, I don't agree with you leaving. ”

Xiao Ye took a puff of cigarette, slowly spit out the cigarette, thought for a while, and said: "The purpose of our coming from home this time is to help those who have not had a fire so far, light a big fire, and live a good life with fire; It is necessary to teach people to smoke, smoke, and keep fire; Teach people to dig traps, use torches to hunt, and get more food; It is also necessary to teach people to fish for "water meat" and add more food; It is also my father's wish to mobilize those who have learned to light fires to help those in need. Although we have helped dozens of tribes before, but this is far from enough, in the southeast, there are many, many people who need us to help them, we can't give up halfway, these days I have thought, there are many tribes lack of food, there will definitely be robbery, there will be robbery of women, I don't know how many Nanshan tigers, Nanshan wolves are waiting for us, but we will think of a lot of good ways to solve these problems, this time, about three, five months, or three, It will take five years to return victoriously, and then the four of us will stay here for a few more days, and we will have to burn more clay pottery here, right? ”

Niangniang listened to Xiao Ye's words, and was deeply moved, and said: "Okay, since you are ready, then I will send you away tomorrow, you must be very careful." ”

A new day came, Xiao Ye and Sister He rode on the red horse, and Cao San and Sister Hehe rode on the big black horse, bidding farewell to Niangniang and the people of the Nanhe tribe, shouldering the heavy burden, full of confidence, and running towards a new goal......
