Chapter 509: How Fragrant That's That
The two of them persevered over the mountain, and the food in their backpacks was all gone, but there was good news, such as that they had found a water source and at least they wouldn't have to worry about dying of thirst.
Yu Zhi was silent all the way, she was still young, and she couldn't figure out why those people would give up hope for freedom, even if Ye Qiu explained it to her, she still couldn't accept it.
This time, when Ye Qiu said that she was going out to find something to eat, she didn't say that she wanted to follow Ye Qiu, but stayed in silence in the cave they found, which was also their place to stay tonight.
This mountain forest has never been developed, Ye Qiu heard others say that there were beasts here, but she has been here so many times, and she has not seen any traces of beasts.
As for the prey, of course, it is very easy to catch, there are quite a few pheasants and hares in the mountains, and she only needs to support a simple trap and wait for them to take the bait.
Ye Qiu confidently made the trap, but he still lost to the cruel reality.
She didn't have anything good to attract those prey, and the bait she put on her didn't even look down on the birds passing by, let alone pheasants and hares.
However, after walking so far, Ye Qiu still had gains, for example, she found a fruit tree, and she also recognized the fruit on it, which was edible.
The only thing is that the fruit tree is very large, and she can't climb the tree, so she can only pick up some that have fallen on the ground and take it back.
Life in the jungle was more difficult than she imagined, and the pair of designer sneakers on her feet were already a little rotten after such a day's journey.
Ye Qiu felt that after going back this time, she would definitely not buy shoes of this brand, they were all rubbish.
She thought indignantly in her heart, and dutifully walked back with the fruit in her arms.
"Drink some water." Ye Qiu handed the filled water to Yu Weaving, she hadn't drunk water for a long time.
Yu Zhi looked up at her: "My brother told me that no matter when, freedom is very important, and the most important thing why people are human is to have their own independent thoughts, once they even have their ideological consciousness is controlled by others, can they still be considered human beings?" ”
Ye Qiu didn't know why Yu Zhi's brother would instill such strange thoughts in her, after all, these were still too complicated for a ten-year-old child. However, she still replied seriously: "This is not right or not, the word human is a general term for species, like us, it is the human race that has human characteristics, even if they are bullied and dare not resist, they are still human, you can't refute and not accept them because of these five." ”
"But freedom and independence of thought are indeed the precious qualities of a person." Ye Qiu said his opinion, and he didn't know if Yu Zhi could understand it.
Yu Zhi was silent for a while, and then took the water given by Ye Qiu and drank it.
"Are we out of food, where are we going to find food?" Yu Zhi looked at the already empty backpack and asked out loud.
Ye Qiu showed her his results: "I remember that this fruit can be eaten, and I also picked some wild vegetables, which can be boiled and eaten." ”
"But we don't have a pot." Yu Zhi listened to Ye Qiu's words and pointed out the problem sharply.
Ye Qiu also forgot this, she only remembered to take a lighter, but she didn't think about bringing a pot, after all, the pot was too heavy.
"Maybe roasted wild vegetables taste good, too?" She asked tentatively.
Yu Zhi also stood up when he heard this: "What you said is a good idea, but we still have to stay away from the forest, if there is another fire, it will not be good." ”
She said seriously, when they were on their way, they saw the previous mountain forest at the corner of the mountain road, a jungle that was originally yellow, but now it is bare, only black land remains, and it looks ugly.
Seeing her recover, Ye Qiu also smiled and touched her head: "Of course, I'll pay attention." ”
The two of them set up a barbecue grill by the river, skewered wild vegetables and fruits, and Yu Ori was lucky enough to catch a fish.
When she proposed to catch fish before, Ye Qiu was not very optimistic, after all, Yu Weaving's idea of washing the sheets and then using them as fishing nets in the river was too ridiculous.
But who knows, there is really such a stupid fish, and it crashed into it and was directly caught by Yu Weaving.
This fish is not small, and after Ye Qiu processed it, he also skewered it and started a barbecue.
Although there was no seasoning, Ye Qiu hadn't forgotten to take a bag of salt, he carefully sprinkled some on the skewers, and soon the fragrance spread.
"Sister, you're awesome, you know how to get salt." Yu Zhi admired Ye Qiu again, and felt that she should be a prophet, and even this situation could be taken into account.
Ye Qiu shook his head: "I just thought, the things we brought can't be eaten by us until the end, we must still have to find something to eat by ourselves, if there is no taste, it will be too miserable, just bring some salt." ”
Compared with the pot, the salt is small in size and easy to carry, even if they suffer from heat stroke due to the hot weather on the road, they can also drink some salt water to relieve it.
As a doctor, Ye Qiu was still very prescient in this regard.
The barbecue was made quickly, the best thing to eat was the fish, and the hot fruit was also delicious, only wild vegetables, although it could be eaten, but it was too bitter.
"We have fish now, so let's throw this wild vegetable away." Yu Ori tasted it and spit it out.
Ye Qiu didn't accept her suggestion, but just took a bunch of wild vegetables and ate them: "If you don't want to eat it, you can eat fish and meat, and I will eat wild vegetables." ”
This fish is a stupid fish, but they can't always encounter stupid fish, so it's more reliable to use wild vegetables all over the mountains.
Yu Zhi looked at Ye Qiu, and didn't know what he thought, but in the end, he was ruthless, took himself a bunch of wild vegetables, and finished eating it with a frown.
"Sister, do you think there will be small animals in that forest? They were all burned by the fire...... "they had eaten and drunk, and their sheets were warm, and they went back to their makeshift shelters."
Yu Zhi nestled in Ye Qiu's arms, half-closed eyes, and asked Ye Qiu.
When Ye Qiu heard this, he also responded, thinking in his heart, this girl can't be a distressed little animal, right?
But she soon knew that she was thinking too much, after all, Yu Ori, who had begun to discuss the meaning of life at the age of ten, obviously could not be guessed with the thinking of an ordinary little girl.
"If they're cooked, how fragrant they must be." Yu Zhi thought, almost drooling.
She was also a little annoyed in her heart, why did they run so fast at that time, if they ran slower, maybe they could pick up some roast rabbits, roast chickens or something to eat.
