The road led by the bald man was not much to walk, and the layers of dense forests covered the scenery in front of him tightly, and the sporadic sunlight penetrated into the forest through the gaps in the leaves, as if the gospel of God and his old man was spreading to the world, and the birds that were originally all over the dense forest were only heard and disappeared at this time.

For the sake of safety, I still brought the balls, and at the same time pulled the dumb left and right by my side, as I said, I and the bald man are the same kind of people, people who can carefully plan everything to achieve the goal, of course, the basis of this planning is not less than their own moral code, but I can't judge whether the bald man also understands what morality is.

Frankly speaking, it wasn't until the depths of the dense forest two kilometers away that I realized what the "intestines" Dandan was talking about to me, which were actually just small tree roots, but the light in the forest at night was not enough, and the bald man's posture of leaning over to dig this kind of thing was very strange, and it was indeed easy to mistake people for digging corpses.

Speaking of this tree root, when the bald man dug out the first root, I had a feeling of being fooled, this thing I had seen before, or every time I walked into the depths of the dense forest, it was not unusual, but I never cared and didn't know that this root can be eaten, the taste is not good, between peony and sweet potato, it is said to be the root, but they are not connected to the tree, it looks more like a potato plant, the short one is half a meter, and the long one is more than five or six meters like the rhizome of the Teng tree.

Damn, but now, the bald man actually exchanged this thing for a big boat from Lao Tzu, you must know that this thing belongs to my island, and there are too many to count, which makes me instantly feel deflated.

Well, I'll admit it, when I saw the bald man's satisfied smile, I did want to tear up the contract and deny it, but if I think about it, I still have to blame myself for this, but I can have the courage to bring the balls here to see what is going on, how can I make him bargain, hey, the loss is not big, it's just a boat, and this root-like thing does solve my urgent need.

"What do you usually call this thing?" I watched the hungry mute open the roots of the tree with a sharp stone to reveal the white flesh and began to gnaw, and asked the bald man.

"I don't know, the dumb man was the one who stoned this thing to death that night, and he gave it to me, so I knew it was edible", the bald man looked at the mute, who nodded with a burp as he gnawed on the roots of the fake tree.

I looked at Dan Dan again, but it was actually more than looking at him, and he was looking at the dumb man with disdain, as if to say, "Look at your eating face!" ”。

You know, in the past week, I have never deducted food from the people on the gentle slope, and even the rice soup is as thick as dry rice.

"Let's call it a burp", I said casually as I watched the mute burp and sometimes choke on his face.

"You bring a few white-robed men from the top of the mountain down to dig, remember, only dig for three days at a time, and you can't steal food when digging!" , I turned my head to the bald man and said, especially the last sentence, in an extraordinarily stern tone.

The bald man paused for a moment and looked at me, "You mean to give the food to those white-robed slaves?" Why are we doing that? With this, those people will always be your slaves, and you have something to eat, my Shanna! He said in a voice that only I could hear, with a puzzled look on his face.

"No, I said it, no one here will be slaves in the future, you're right, this hiccup is indeed the best way to control their resources, but you must know that 'people' are resources themselves.

He didn't seem to understand what I was saying, but he didn't say any more, just nodded, and said in a very smooth and elongated tone, "Okay, Shanna, I'll listen to you for everything...... I am your most faithful believer...... I will do whatever you say in the future", his words were not replying to me at all, but more like saying to the Dandans and dumb people next to him, but it didn't take long for this matter to become Dandan's daily work, obviously this lazy and selfish "honest man" was fooled by the bald grandson.

In the evening of that day, the aroma of the meat and rice soup accompanied by the smell of the burp roasted root filled the entire earthen house within a radius of 100 meters, and the three bonfires were very strong, and even from the gentle slope nearly 100 meters away, you could see the happiness and satisfaction on the faces of the women around the bonfire, the children no longer cried, and the long-lost laughter echoed in every inch of the air between the top of the mountain and the mountainside.

Of course, not everyone fell into the laughing crowd, such as the tiger girl lying in the cave, and of course, the Sichuan girl who took care of the tiger girl.

Chuan frowned and stroked the "burp root" for a long time, and told me that it was very similar to the white hemp rhizome she planted, but it was much larger, and even she even sent the mute back to the dense forest when it was already dark, and took a few stems and leaves of the burp root, and then said no more, and silently walked back to the evil spirit cave with her head down.

Looking at her pensive expression as she left, I began to wonder if this thing was poisonous? But after thinking about the bald man's rosy face, which looks like he was poisoned, even if he dispelled this concern, I just couldn't guess the expression of the Sichuan girl.

But the facts have proved that this thing does have some side effects, that is, diarrhea, which is still my fault, hey, I dug too much, and I gave it to the white-robed women at one time.

"How much did they eat?" , the bald fox asked me suspiciously.

"Everyone has about a burp root......," I whispered as I gestured with my hand to the length, only to get back a look of disbelief on the other side's face.

It took three days for the farce of queuing to have diarrhea subsided, and it did cause panic among many white-robed women, and some people had even begun to bow down in the direction of the gentle slope, praying that the children with the same diarrhea would get better first.

And the person who calmed all this down was the Sichuan girl.

While I was out for a while, I took people to see the seedlings in the field, and walked to the top of the mountain to appease the emotions of the white-robed men, but she spent two nights in the cave, smashed the burp roots into wooden mud, and dried them for a whole day, and then mixed some grass in the earthen pot like the dried meat and rice soup, and boiled it, it is strange to say, drinking it like this, but it has never caused anyone diarrhea, of course, it is also possible that this group of ladies has learned from the past, and no one dares to eat more.

Not only that, but the Sichuan girl also deliberately touched the field to find me, she must have fallen all the way, her hands were cut several times, and the pain was so painful that she kept rubbing her forehead against my chest, and only after a long time did she tell me: "The wood god favors everyone here, the stem of the burp root, can make hemp, and those who are suffering have new robes to wear."
