Act IV Rooted in This

"Okay then."

Rat Da stopped insisting and turned around and began to dig a hole.

And Yin Ying became interested in the arrival of Chen Tu and other rats, and helped Chen Tu set up a small home next to the kitchen.

Chen Tu happily helped Yin Ying pick up small wooden sticks on the side.

As night fell, Chen Tu, who had been gnawing dry food for several days, finally ate a hot meal, and for the other rats who had not eaten a hot meal, they were in tears.

Such a soft rice ball is very different from eating dry food directly.

"Thank you, Otoying!" Chen Tu unconsciously stuck next to Yin Ying.

But Yin Ying didn't mind that there were seven mice crawling on his dining table, Yin Ying picked up a green vegetable and put it next to Chen Tu, with a warm smile on her face. "I also want to thank you, it's been a long time since I had anyone to talk to me."

"Then I will accompany you in the future." Chen Tumouse, who turned into a mouse, couldn't make any waves on his face, and naturally he didn't feel embarrassed by his sultry words.

"Okay." Yin Ying, who has not been deeply involved in the world, did not notice that Chen Tu's words had some flavor.

A table of newly met friends chatted for a long time, but except for Chen Tu, it was a little difficult for other mice to talk to Yin Ying.

After all, they can understand what they say, but they can't understand what they say.

After chatting, Chen Tu returned to his small room, which had a small hand lamp converted into an electric lamp for lighting.

Chen Tu has not forgotten his promise, and Chen Tu really needs a goal to reduce the impact of turning into a rat on him.

"Although the lofty ideals of life cannot be realized, my life must be wonderful." Chen Tu thought secretly.

So Chen Tu didn't fall asleep but sorted out his thoughts, Chen Tu picked up a blank piece of paper, and he wanted to think about what to do next.

First of all, we must solve the problem of food and clothing, Chen Tu thought to himself, to cultivate more land here to grow food, this is a big step towards his own ideal of rat life.

With this goal in mind, Chen Tu's next thoughts were much clearer. So, Chen Tu wrote down some detailed rules of work on paper.

Chen Tu wakes up early, he is not the kind of person who is particularly lazy, so he now has to start to explore the terrain and the trend of the mountains here to facilitate the growth of crops.

When Chen Tu walked past the door of the house, he found that the sound warbler had already weeded in his field.

At this time, the sun in the sky is only showing a shallow corner, and because this is between the mountains, the light is a little dim.

Yin Ying changed into a dress and half-squatted in the farmland, her little jade-white hands still stained with the dirt mixed with the dew.

She held a handle in her right hand with some rust, but the tip of the shovel was shiny, and she was very careful to remove the grass between the vegetables.

"Hey." Chen Tu's short rat legs were crossed and one foot was facing the ground, leaning on a green vegetable, and his right paw brushed the rat hair on his head. His eyes melted as if he looked at the sound warbler.

Yin Ying was amused by the scene in front of her, she put down the tool in her hand and gently pressed Chen Tu's nose.

"Naughty little mouse."

"Can you help me? I'm going to reclaim this land. ”

Chen Tu consciously jumped onto Yin Ying's hand and asked.

"Do rats also have to farm?" The sound warbler was curious.

"Yes, I'm a very clever mouse, and I'm going to build a country here." Chen Tu's tone became proud.

Hearing this, Yin Ying immediately became interested, Yin Ying's perennial melancholy brows stretched a lot, and she said to Chen Tu: "I can help you." ”

"Then let's scout the terrain first."

Chen Tu climbed onto Yin Ying's shoulders and followed Yin Ying to a slightly higher hill.

At this time, half of the sun has leaked out, the sky without clouds is extremely clear, and the warm sunlight is reflected on the bodies of Yin Ying and Chen Tu through the leaves, and the different shades of light spots are like a landscape painting.

"When I first cultivated the vegetable field, it took me a full month, and there were not too many rocks on the ground, mainly because the trees growing on it were not easy to deal with." Yin Ying said to Chen Tu.

Chen Tu has already had a way, and of course fire must be used for the first reclamation.

"That's not a problem, I think that piece of land is good, it's very flat." Chen Tu pointed to a hill to the south of the hut and said.

The flat land to the south of the hut looked a little more than an acre, and there was a stream to the west, which was also convenient for diverting water.

It's a good choice to reclaim a piece of land here, Chen Tu thought to himself.

"It's good, but the task is a bit large, maybe I have to do this spring, but I'll help to the end." Yin Ying promised.

"I'll go find some companions to come over, after all, it's about building a country, and we can't just a few of us."

At this time, Chen Tu had already set his heart on his ideal of rat life.

"Then, I'll go cook first." Yin Ying ran back to the hut quickly, and the frightened Chen Tu hurriedly grabbed Yin Ying's long golden hair to prevent it from being thrown off.

Chen Tu wanted to help with cooking, but he wouldn't, so he had to give up.

Chen Tu was not idle, he stood at the entrance of the cave and called out the six companions.

"Chen Tu, I'm so sleepy." Little Sister Yawned and walked a little unsteadily.

"I don't have the strength to get up so early." Rat Erhe's eyes still didn't open, lying on Rat Da's body.

"We have to work hard, or we will eat and drink for nothing? Those old habits have to be changed, and we are rats with ideals and struggles. Chen Tu taught earnestly.

"Our task today is to reach out to the rats around us and get them to join us." Chen Tu shared his thoughts.

There is smoke curling from the low kitchen, and inside is the busy figure of the sound warbler, because electricity is very precious here, so it can only be an earthen stove, and the sound warbler needs to fill the fire while cooking.

Seven rats sat dryly on the threshold of the kitchen, watching the birds' every move as they waited for the meal to begin.

"The meal is ready." Yin Ying said as she wiped the sweat from her face.

"Wow, it's time to eat!" Rat Siha was the most excited, this little fat rat could eat the amount of two meals of other rats in one meal.

The seven rats very consciously climbed up to the simple wooden table, and the warbler brought out seven small plates in turn, in which a small piece of bread and a few slices of vegetables were placed, and the rats ate them with relish.

"I'm going to recruit some more rats to come over today and help us develop this place." old

Tu said hello to the sound warbler. This matter must also be known to Yinying, after all, this is Yinying's home.

Yin Ying didn't mean to refuse after hearing this, Yin Ying thought, this might be a good choice.

"Yes."

Yin Ying replied that it was clear that Yin Ying had added herself to Chen Tu's plan.

"That's good, I'm afraid you won't agree, after all, they suddenly have a few more mouths when they come." Chen Tu said.

A few rats are a little easier, and if there are more, the pressure will definitely be greater.

"I also want to see what kind of place we end up carrying, and what else I can do is still what I can do." Yin Ying said seriously.
