Chapter 175: The Cave

In the afternoon, Qi Zhuang and Ruoshui cleaned up the kitchen, cleaned up all the useless clutter, and made some space for fish paste and shrimp paste.

However, the kitchen is still very small, and the space to store fish paste and shrimp paste is far from enough.

If you want to build a cellar, you need to choose a site, dig the soil, dry and so on. It's too late now.

"I know there's a cave on the hillside behind that we can put fish paste and shrimp paste there." Qi Zhuang said.

"There are caves! The cave is good! Hearing that there is a cave, Ruoshui's eyes immediately lit up, "The cave is much better than the cellar, the cave is a natural storage room, warm in winter and cool in summer, the most suitable for storing fish paste and shrimp paste!" ”

"Then we'll check it out now!"

The cave was at the foot of the hill behind their house, deep in the bamboo forest.

There is a thick forest of moso bamboo, and there are no wild vegetables or fungi on the ground, and bamboo shoots are usually picked in the woods outside. So it's off the beaten track, and people from the village rarely come here.

So much so that for so many years, the people in the village didn't even know that there was a cave here.

Cut off the bamboo at the entrance of the cave, and the entrance to the cave was exposed to the two of them.

The entrance to the cave is small, the size of a gate, but when you walk in, you find that the cave is very large.

It's probably hundreds of square meters inside, and the cave isn't dark at all. Because there is a gap in the slope of the cave, and the sun shines through the gap.

There is an opening at the end of the cave, and there is another larger cave inside.

The two caves are connected together, and there are several acres of land, which is enough to store a lot of things.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, there was a wolf roar, and the silver snow wolf ran out of nowhere, came to the two of them, and nodded at the two of them.

"This is the residence of the Silver Snow Wolf?" Ruoshui couldn't help but ask.

Qi Zhuang nodded.

"He'll live here from now on and help us look at things."

Originally, Ruoshui was still a little worried, if he put things here, would he be remembered. Now, with the protection of the Silver Snow Wolf, there is no longer any need to fear someone coming in and stealing things.

"Then let's put the fish paste and shrimp paste here to ferment and store!" Ruoshui said.

Qi Zhuang nodded.

In the evening, the little ditch was bustling with activity, and very little children came here to pick up the cages they had left for the day.

Every time they take up the cage, they catch a lot of small fish and shrimp.

Most people will throw away these small fish and shrimp.

Ruoshui took advantage of the time when everyone came to pick up the ground cage and went to the side of the creek to buy some small fish and shrimp.

Today's harvest is quite a lot, full of two large buckets of small fish and shrimp.

Among them are also a dozen small crucian carp the length of thumbs.

Wakasui salts the crucian carp in salt for a while at night, and then deepens it in oil until it is crispy and crispy, and serves as a dish on the dinner table.

Qi Zhuang loves to eat very much, and he has eaten many in one go.

After dinner, Qi Zhuang began to carry the fish paste and shrimp paste stored in the kitchen to the cave at the end of the bamboo forest.

The moonlight was quietly sprinkled in the bamboo forest, and Qi Zhuang walked in front with five or six cans at a time, followed quietly by one man and one wolf behind.

After seven or eight trips back and forth, I finally finished carrying all the fish paste and shrimp paste.

The moonlight shines through the cracks above the cave, illuminating the entire cave.

With the moonlight, there is a large area of light in the cave, and together with the flowers and springs blooming in the cave, it forms a hazy and dreamy picture.
