Chapter 369: Treading Water Without a Trace
Mu Shan nibbled on the burnt mixed bread, and when he heard Chai Shuiqing ask about the fire, this time he remembered that he had lost a few things in it before.
"Oh, you wait a minute."
As he spoke, Mu Shan picked up a stick of firewood and bara in the fire.
After a while, I pulled out a few black 'carbon lumps'.
With just one glance, Chai Shuiqing recognized it, his eyes were shining, and he felt that the baked buns in his hands were not fragrant.
"Brother Mu, this thing is so fragrant!"
Needless to say, just this scent, it's right!
Chai Shuiqing's face was happy, and it was another situation in Mu Shan's eyes: this girl was starved!
Mu Shan did not directly separate these black lumps, but Bala came to him one by one, and then picked them up and broke them without fear of being hot, and sniffed them again, with a look of uncertainty.
"I've seen these eaten by boars and other animals before, so I don't think they're poisonous, so I'll dig them up and try them."
Because there are traces of animals having eaten them, Mu Shan brought these back, and he couldn't just eat wild fruits and not starve.
Unexpectedly, after roasting, the aroma is fragrant.
Just by smelling it, Mu Shan already had some cognition: this thing should be able to be eaten.
"I want to see if I can eat it, you can wait a while, if it's non-toxic, you can eat it again."
Saying that, Mu Shan finished eating one in two bites without fear of being hot, and his mouth was immediately stained with gray and black, but he had already been conquered by the taste he had tasted.
The taste is sweet, fragrant, and soft and glutinous.
However, just in case, Mu Shan didn't eat it again, but stared at Chai Shuiqing, afraid that she couldn't help the fragrance and tried it.
After waiting for a while, I also ate the firewood and green fruits, and the roasted buns, and at this time I squatted beside the fire and stared at the black lumps.
That gluttonous appearance surprised Mu Shan.
He had never seen her look so gluttonous, but this was like what she should be at her age, and she seemed to be very stable.
"Okay, this thing shouldn't be poisonous, you can try it too."
As soon as Mu Shan's words fell, he saw Chai Shuiqing's eyes light up, and he hurriedly reached out to grab the black tuotuo.
Moreover, seeing her carefully eating something carefully, as if there was some kind of delicacies in her hands, the expression of enjoyment made Mu Shan unconscious.
"Let's dig some and take them with us when we go back, there are a lot of them over there."
Mu Shan pointed to the piece behind Chai Shuiqing, which made her look at it curiously.
She nodded without thinking: Of course, this sweet potato is a good thing, not to mention the taste, and I am hungry.
Besides, it's a high-yielding crop.
Chai Shuiqing plans to get more back, and when the time comes, he can plant a batch of them.
Although he had enough to eat, this thing had never appeared here, and if it was widely planted, many people would not go hungry by that time.
It can be seen from the lives of the villagers in Hedong Village that people rely on one acre and three points of land in their hands to survive, and food is their life in their eyes.
And the Chai family and the Li family are both well-to-do families, so there is no one who can't eat.
According to Li Xiufeng's understanding of the village, Chai Shuiqing still knows a lot of things, and many villagers are unable to eat with their stomachs open, and many people just live a life of starvation and not enough to eat.
Chai Shuiqing thought about things in his heart, and observed that the sweet potato in his hand was bigger than usual, and some speculations rose in his heart.
One may be because of the good soil here, and the other may be because of the magnetic field.
The vegetation here may not have been collected, or it may be because of the magnetic field that is why they grow so big.
What's more, this col is not small, it is bigger than the back mountain of Hedong Village.
And the system didn't stop yesterday, and it kept the prompt sound of 'discovering new species' in my head.
It can be seen that many species may have been affected by magnetic fields and become so-called new species.
Even, Chai Shuiqing was a little skeptical that she could come to this world because of the magnetic field here.
And this strange magnetic field also affected the surrounding flora and fauna.
Chai Shuiqing felt that she had to find the so-called magnetic field, otherwise she wouldn't be able to collect things here with peace of mind.
After all, that magnetic field is like a time bomb, and who knows if it will cause irreparable damage to Mu Shan and her.
Unknown things are always mysterious, alarming and scary.
Chai Shuiqing is no exception.
"Have you eaten yet?"
Mu Shan saw that she had eaten two black lumps and stopped eating, so he asked.
Chai Shuiqing nodded, pushed the others to Mu Shan, and his hands were immediately blackened.
"Brother Mu, you can eat these, I'll wash my hands."
After speaking, Chai Shuiqing walked to the creek.
Knowing the task of this trip, Mu Shan hastened to finish eating the other roasted sweet potatoes, washed his hands, and pointed to the other side of the stream: "That tree was found on the other side." ”
If it hadn't been too late last night, they would have gone back a long time ago.
When Chai Shuiqing heard this, he looked at his shoes for the first time, and then his face was entangled.
In the past, she could have stepped on it with slippers, and the water in the stream was no more than her calf.
But there is Mu Shan around, not to mention, the people here pay great attention to the honor, not to mention showing their calves, even if they look at their feet, they will make people promise each other.
Thinking of this, Chai Shuiqing shook his body unconsciously.
She doesn't want to be forced to marry at a glance, she is only thirteen years old, and she is far from getting married!
What's more, if she completes her mission and finds out how to go back, maybe she will be able to return to the old world!
Anyway, it's a mid-plane over there!
Thinking of this, Chai Shuiqing sighed secretly: Did you just give up?
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Mu Shan take the rope in her hand again and wrap it around her arm.
"Just like the previous time, I'll take you with a rope."
The rope was tied to her, and he just grabbed the rope around her waist and led her across the river, it was nothing.
When Chai Shuiqing heard this, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt hopeful.
"En, thank you for your hard work!"
Nodding again and again, Chai Shuiqing was very happy.
Mu Shan felt that her joy came too easily, and he didn't realize that his eyebrows bent and he quickened the speed in his hand.
"Are you ready?"
It's not like going up and down trees, so Mu Shan isn't worried about her being afraid.
Chai Shuiqing nodded, Mu Shan slipped the rope around her waist a few times with one hand, and rushed over with her toes on the stones by the stream.
On the side, Chai Shuiqing only felt that his feet were empty, and he could see the water waves below when he looked down.
And looking at Mu Shan again, it seems that there is no trace of treading water, and his shoes are just a little on the water, and the more he borrows his strength, the more he travels a distance.
This kung fu made Chai Shuiqing grow his mouth in shock.
Is this what is called floating on the water?
Before Chai Shuiqing came back to her senses, Mu Shan had already placed her firmly on the stone by the stream.
This down-to-earth feeling made Chai Shuiqing come back to her senses instantly, and her first reaction was to look at Mu Shan's shoes.
But I saw that Mu Shan's black shoes had not changed at all, because after walking on the mountain road before, the dust on the shoes was still there, but there were no traces of mud and wetness.
It can be seen that Fang Cai Mu Shan really came by treading water.
This person's kung fu is so powerful!
"Brother Mu, you can actually work lightly!"
Chai Shuiqing looked at Mu Shan with bright eyes, and the adoring gaze made the tips of Mu Shan's ears red.
