In the early morning of the next day, just after midnight, the gongs and drums of the morning gong sounded again, and a group of young men and women had already put on their clothes and lined up in the open space in front of the bamboo forest. Waiting for the black-clothed ninja to distribute the kunai to everyone, today compared to yesterday, there was only one, and the task of cutting bamboo was heavier. Before sunrise, individuals need to cut down two bamboos with tools.

Before leaving, Zhi Ning stood on the side of the crowd and quietly handed Shen Shiyi a look, and when everyone moved forward, he quietly pulled the red bean and Shen Shiyi behind him to pick a small position and also entered the bamboo forest.

Soon after entering the forest, Zhi Ning searched for a moment and found a few yellow bamboos that were close but looked dirty, patted the two of them on the shoulder, and motioned for the two of them to follow their own movements. Bamboo has a long growth period, and it is common to see that the emerald green bamboo is mostly about one to two years old new bamboo, the bamboo body is tough enough and the bamboo skin is harder and not easy to fold, while on the other hand, the color is slightly yellow, and the bamboo body has some silt and black things, and the bamboo is mostly about five years old, and the skin is not as tough as that of new bamboo, and it is easier to cut down in comparison. And this time was taken to the island of the young northerners are more, most of them have never seen bamboo and do not know the nature of bamboo, Zhining is also a northerner, but when he was a child, he went to the south with his father, but he knows some.

After yesterday's morning work, Xu was in order to prevent this group of teenagers from doing something wrong with their sharp blades, and the kun Wu had been taken back. The kunai that came down again today knew at a glance that it was not the one that Zhi Ning had used yesterday: the newly built kunai that Qing Ren distributed to the teenagers was still a blunt dagger at this time, and it had not yet been bladed. Today's handle is a new blade that has barely been polished, and just looking at this dagger, Zhi Ning already knows that the master of yesterday's sword must not have completed his early work. Zhi Ning pulled the two of them, didn't speak, walked quickly to find a stone with a slightly flat surface, poured some water bladders, poured some water, and polished the kunai sharp blade sideways for a while. When you feel half-edged, wipe it clean with the hem of your clothes, if the blade is too thin, it will be easy to break.

At the beginning of the bamboo cutting, Zhi Ning first drew a circle with kunai tip about three inches above the bamboo root soil layer, peeled off several layers of thin bamboo skin, and then took the stone against the ring of the kunai root, used the kunai as a chisel, and beat it for a while, and left a few holes the size of copper coins on the off-white bamboo pole that stripped off the yellow skin, and Zhi Ning held the kunai against the hole and pulled it out with the tip for a while, at this time the bamboo pole has begun to shake with the wind. At this time, the cutting is done with a blade, which takes a lot of effort at first, but later it is as easy as mowing grass. Although this method is simple, it is like sharpening a knife without cutting wood, but people who have been logging for years still find it time-consuming, and most children who are only a few years old have no patience for it.

Here the red beans saw that Zhining was doing it easily, and he also followed suit. In less than half an hour, the first bamboo fell in response.

"yes, yes, that's easy." Little Red Bean applauded happily, and those little eyes were barely visible when they smiled. Zhi Ning, who spent a night in fear, saw the cute appearance of the red bean, and finally showed a smile on his face. She smiled shyly and gave the red bean an gesture of encouragement with her hand. The three of them laughed and hugged each other.

What the three of them didn't expect was that in the low grass not far behind, a few eyes appeared, and their eyes were full of joy. This also laid a deep hidden danger for what happened later.

"B Sanfang, Shen Sansan, Hongdou, Li Yunlan, Su Qiaofeng...... Come and get the steamed buns. The pock-faced steward shouted from outside the house. The voice was much better than yesterday's impatience. Several of the people in the room who were called by name hurriedly got up and rushed out. On this morning, except for the two people in the third room, most of the rest of the people also completed their morning work. The girls who were cold to Zhining yesterday glanced at Zhining with a smile on their faces when they were called out by name.

Taking advantage of the fact that everyone in the house went to get the steamed buns, Zhi Ning turned his head to look at the place where he had slept, it was dark when he was doing morning work, and a group of girls in the house were busy changing clothes and freshening up into a mess, and Zhi Ning was also busy grooming, and he had no time to see who was sleeping in his place last night. I saw that the rest of the bedding on the bunk was neatly stacked, only the Zhining bed was a kneaded ball, and the futon pillow that was thrown on the red bean bunk yesterday returned to that place.

They seem to be giving me a warning?

What these kids are doing is incredible. Zhi Ning looked at the side of the bed in a daze and thought to himself. Zhi Ning, who has been accustomed to the cold eyes of others since he was a child, only thought that this was the first time he completed his morning work, which made the faces of others dull, although he forgot all about yesterday morning's eyes after only one night.

"Third sister, why are your eyes dark, I squeezed you last night and didn't sleep well?" The red beans who had taken breakfast looked at Zhi Ning's somewhat haggard face and asked worriedly.

Zhi Ning smiled and shook his head, about to make a gesture that didn't matter. There was a burst of laughter around him.

"Hehe, I'm afraid some people have nightmares at night and can't sleep, right?" A slightly plump girl who usually follows Li Yunlan on weekdays looked at Zhi Ning Xiluo.

"In my opinion, there are some selfish villains who hide things and don't want to share them with all of us, so I can't hold it in my heart." Another girl with slender eyes sneered.

"Oh, that's the case, that's why she can't sleep." The chubby girl in front of her said.

Li Yunlan and the women in front of her laughed in unison, the flowers and branches of laughter trembled, and they walked away together.

A cloud suddenly drifted in the clear blue sky to block the light of the sun, and only Zhi Ning and Hongdou, who were biting their lips lightly, were left on the slightly white land, and the long shadows of the two were alone on the ground.

………………………………………………………………………

Finally found a way, and the most troublesome morning work went very smoothly, until the fifth day, everyone's hands almost began to slow down. It's like it's back to day one. On the fourth day, most people are already able to complete the practice of cutting bamboo, nearly an hour of early work, for only nine years old boys as long as they find a way to always be completed, but the bamboo cutting and exercise in the past few days still make a group of teenagers who are at the age of play cry miserable, and there are almost few people who can cut five bamboos for several days in a row.

Fortunately, the steward of the inner courtyard had already received an order, if the number could not be increased, the number of four sticks could be cut out every day, and there was also a steamed bun to eat, so that he still had the strength to think of a new method.

Every day, the teenagers need to sit cross-legged on the edge of the cliff with their backs to the sea, bend their big fingers with their hands and put their hands together between their abdomen. Few active teenagers could sit down at first, but after being stoned, even the most stubborn teenagers sat down with grinning teeth. "Don't say anything about it, if you can't grow again in three days, the steamed bun will be reduced to half, and in another three days, there will be only one person who has not been cut down and sat together." The old man in blue stood on the cliff and lectured to everyone.

Shen Shiyi is a young man's nature, and since he was warned by the young hall master that day, Shen Shiyi has never dared to speak secretly halfway. Only from time to time to squeeze his eyebrows and make some grimaces with Zhi Ning. After a few days, Zhi Ning has become accustomed to the joke of this little brother. Later, when he meditated, Zhi Ning only raised his head forward, and when his eyes were closed, he didn't care how Eleven moved.

Zhi Ning didn't know that this action was seen by the old man in blue who supervised the meditation every day, and nodded secretly in his heart.

With his back to the sea, Zhi Ning closed his eyes tightly, thinking about how to complete the morning work: he had been on the island for a few days, although his thin body was much better than before, but his wrist strength was still insufficient, and the others who had completed it were mostly strong young men with sufficient wrist strength, and it would be difficult for him to complete the morning work if he didn't take advantage of it. In this body memory, he and Eleven grew up with their mother in the pulp and paper mill since childhood, and after the death of their mother, they did some chores with their younger brother, mostly doing some work to burn fires and collect firewood. But if you don't rely on external force, if you come to cut down bamboo, a few days have passed, and there is no rotation of several people, and everyone has done the blade, and even some teenagers have even been able to hit it several times. At this point, the advantage of his past skills is gone.

Zhi Ning, who was thinking about it, habitually prepared to grab his hair with his hand, stretched out halfway and suddenly remembered that it was in the open space of meditation practice, and quietly glanced at the old man in blue, only to see that the old man was squinting his eyelids and looking at him without smiling, Zhi Ning smiled and put his hand down again. Slightly sideways glanced at Shen Shiyi, only to see Shen Shiyi staring into the distance, just now his embarrassment did not attract his attention at all, only to see two flying eagles in the distance are hunting hares in the forest, although the cliff is high, but the distance is still far away and I can't see very clearly, I saw the two eagles swooping into the forest alternately, and the birds in the forest scattered everywhere they passed, but after a while, the two flying eagles had already spread their wings with a ball of white prey in their mouths.

On weekdays, flying eagles are also common on the island, but it is rare to see flying eagles hunting, and there was a slight commotion among the teenagers, and the teenagers who had just closed their eyes and meditated were also disturbed by the movement of the crowd to open their eyes, and turned their heads to look around.

"Sister, what do you want, did you see the eagle preying just now?" Eleven whispered with his head tilted.

Zhi Ning didn't answer, and the scene he had just seen made Zhi Ning suddenly think of a new idea in his mind.

Whoosh~ Several stones flew out with the sound of the wind, and the crowd immediately quieted down.

Teenagers who are still playing at a very sexual age always have a long and painful time to practice. A little novelty will immediately magnify several times to the onlookers. But in the face of novelty, everyone's perception is different.

"Shen Sansan, red beans come to get steamed buns."

"Shen Shiyi came to get steamed buns".

The stewards of the two distant distances shouted that three days had passed, and most of them had not yet cut down five roots, so they could only starve for days and think hard about countermeasures. Only Zhining and a few people have started to eat breakfast again since yesterday.
