The mountain wind was dry and cold, and it didn't seem to be snowing much outside.

Liu Ci looked out along the entrance of the cave, and at a glance saw the extremely open river beach in the distance, the vast impact plain formed by the foot of the two large mountains, and some low shrubs by the river, which were the open land she saw when she was digging potatoes.

The frozen riverbed had melted for most of it and began to flow again, and Liu Ci thought it was a snow-covered plain when he saw it before, but it was a misunderstanding.

The location of the cave is on the steep slope of the slope, and the gap that Liu Ci stepped on and fell into is above the steep slope, so the wall on one side of the cave is extremely thin, and after knocking it open, it is a way to live. It's just that she is rigid in thinking, and she didn't think about digging the wall of the cave after being trapped for a month, and she ate a lot of vine leaves in vain. However, it may not be a blessing to lose the east corner, with the situation that she broke her leg at that time, she really broke through the cave wall, and how to hide from many predators in the winter forest?

What's more, by chance, she also vomited Xiaocheng, and finally found a sense of qi.

Staying in the cave for more than 30 days, in addition to the "red fireflies" that I felt for the first time, a few days ago, some blue elves joined the daily frolicking time, if the magic element also has attributes, obviously the previous one was the fire element, and then the water element was felt, she guessed that this was probably related to the two demon core attributes devoured by the Chaos Lotus.

Like at this time, as soon as the cave wall was opened, Liu Ci could detect the water element from the pavement in a calm mood. In winter, the snow covers the mountains, but there is really no shortage of water, and the most active nature is the water element.

Liu Ci observed the steep slope for a year, and the angle of the cave up was straight, only the downward walk was relatively gentle. Luckily, her left foot is almost fine, and she can go down if she is careful. Before staying in the cave for a month, Liu Ci also dug up some of the roots of the three-leaf five-spice blood vine, and the healing elixir was still planted by his side, which was convenient and reassuring.

Before leaving, Liu Ci thought about it or plugged the gap dug out, the hole was not liked by wild beasts because of the smell of sulfur all year round, it was actually a relatively safe place to spend the winter, who knows if it can be used in the future.

Stumbling and walking for a long time to the river, the fish swimming under the transparent ice made Liu Ci drool.

She wanted to eat fish.

The far north of ancient China was also frozen in winter, and some lakes that were completely sealed up, as long as a gap was cut in the ice, oxygen-deficient fish would swarm and be scooped up without tools. There is also a type of ice fishing, where fish that have been hungry for a winter are so hungry that they can easily be tricked into taking the bait.

Liu Ci did not have a fishing line, so he separated a few silk threads from the cloth strips tied to the hem of his trousers and braided them together to become a relatively strong fishing line, and small insects could be found in the rotten leaves under the bushes, and the barbs of the thorns were broken off and fixed on the thin line to act as a fishing hook, and then the thin line was wrapped around the branches with the thickness of the little finger, and the simple fishing rod was ready.

Choosing a good position and throwing the fishing line down, it floated lightly on the water, Liu Ci was so head that he forgot to tie a small stone on it, no wonder it couldn't sink.

Improved the fishing rod and threw it again, poof, and the small stone really dragged the fishing line into the water.

Liu Ci squatted by the river and began to wait patiently.

If Liu Ci was a little impatient a month ago, now she is completely reborn. The flamboyance of her nature was suppressed by reality, and when she didn't speak, there was a bit of Liu Ziyuan's flavor on her side, the two of them looked alike with their mothers, and what Liu Ci lacked was Liu Ziyuan's patience and calmness.

There's no way, after a month of boring days locked in a semi-confined space, the temperament of the jumper will change, at least temporarily.

The fishing line began to tremble slightly, Liu Ci patiently waited for the fish to swallow the hook and began to struggle violently before he suddenly lifted it up, and a one-foot-long grass carp came ashore and writhed without giving up, Liu Ci slaughtered it with drool.

The grass carp weighs at least a pound, and because the weather is clear, the humidity of the branches is not so strong, and Liu Ci is thinking about eating a hot meal.

She was so hungry that her mouth, esophagus, stomach, and intestines were all shouting, and without the greatsword by her side, the real friction was very slow, and the urge to eat raw fish surged several times on the way, all supported by the delicious taste of the grilled fish she remembered over and over again.

When the fire finally ignited, Liu Ci grilled the fish on the branches.

Both sides are slightly burnt, the inside is delicate, the craftsmanship of roasting fragrant meat has not been wasted, and a fish has been sacrificed to Liu Ci's five internal organs temple, and she is satisfied with her burp.

The taste is very fresh, Liu Ci, who has not smelled the smell of meat for a long time, almost swallowed his tongue, the only disadvantage is that there are too many small spines of grass carp, which is a little troublesome to eat. While the fire was still not extinguished, Liu Ci caught another carp of about the same size and roasted it, only then did he feel that he was alive again. Telling himself that the days of eating vine leaves were over, Liu Ci moved his hands and feet and prepared to return to his lair.

Oh, of course, you have to catch a few fish for food before leaving, and the fresh fish will not stink in the snow and ice.

After breaking the weeping willows by the river and skewering the few big fish he caught, Liu Ci began to identify the direction. Only by finding the mark she left when she came can she return to the tree hole the way she came, where the environment is safe and familiar, and there is a weapon that can come in handy in the future, there is no reason to give up such a great base.

As for the direction, Liu Ci looked around, and finally found the most familiar angle, the scenery she saw when picking potatoes that day, the corresponding straight line is the starting point of the field of vision, she can go there in the opposite direction, and then find the mark. The method is a little stupid, but it is the most direct.

Coincidentally, the final measured direction is very close to the meandering direction of the river, and as long as you go up the river, you can finally reach the destination, which provides great convenience to Liu Ci.

The little girl in the dog hair coat walked unhurriedly along the river beach with a few catties of fish in her hand, lined with the sparse woods on both sides and the white mist of the mountains in the distance, and from time to time there were colorful big birds flying through the air, which was really not so pleasing to the eye in the New Year's paintings.

Only the person concerned, Liu Ci, knew how hard it was to walk on the picturesque river beach, and on the way, she met a big brown bear guarding the ice to catch fish to eat, and after holding her breath and bypassing, she almost didn't lose her only broken boots!

Originally, Liu Ci was also planning to come to the river from time to time to catch some fish to improve his life, but when he saw this, he immediately dispelled the unreliable idea.

Daddy, she forgot in a moment of excitement that the land of water was originally the most dangerous place in the forest. Now the beasts in the mountains are covered by ice and snow and do not use them to drink, and when it comes to summer, I am afraid that killing will inevitably occur on the river beach all day long.

However, Liu Ci was not without gains, a plant she accidentally stepped on, after double identification of appearance and smell, it was determined that it was the stem of ginger. Ginger stalks are no better than garlic seedlings, and they don't wilt in winter, otherwise she wouldn't have noticed.

Harvesting a very important seasoning, Liu Ci was very happy and swept away several ginger plants with stems and stems. Transplantation is a must, I wonder when she will be able to gather all kinds of spices, and most importantly, salt?

On days when you don't eat salt, it's always easy to have weak legs.

After Liu Ci picked a bag of water celery by the river, she finally climbed the slope where she was digging potatoes that day before dark.

On that day, I ran all the way down the mountain, and went upstream along the river beach, but I only traveled half the way. Liu Ci didn't eat at night, and he didn't want to make a fire, so he climbed to the branch of the tree and dealt with it all night. When I climbed down the tree the next morning, I couldn't help but mumble that if I froze like this, I would get "old cold legs" at a young age.

When she found the mark, the scratches on the tree a month ago were all scarred, ugly, like a caterpillar crawling on the bark of the tree. Liu Ci followed the caterpillars one by one, and after a month, he successfully returned to the nest.

The fence gate, which was not regularly maintained, had already been blown away by the wind and snow, and the snow poured into the hole in the tree, leaving no gap.

Liu Ci tried to call "dumb" twice, but the soft-boned puppy who always pulled her trouser legs disappeared. A half-month-old puppy, how can it have life after leaving the care of people, but as a result, Liu Ci expected it, but he still felt bored in his heart. I was really lonely, but I had feelings after raising it for more than half a month.

Liu Ci began to clear the snow in the tree hole, and he didn't see the dumb body in the end, thinking that he either went out and didn't return, or was taken by a wild beast, maybe buried in the snow layer. When the snow melted in spring, Liu Ci wondered if he would find a small skeleton nearby? The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, and she had to work hard.

After cleaning the hole in the tree, digging out the buried stone pot and the giant sword, Liu Ci lit the fire, built a simple stove with stones, and boiled a pot of snow water on the stone pot on it. When the water boiled, he threw the cleaned fresh fish into it, broke a small piece of ginger to improve the smell and remove the fish, and let the fish soup boil in the stone pot, Liu Ci began to check his "property".

Half of the fruit in the cellar was rotten, but fortunately she came back in time, otherwise all the fruit in the cellar would have been ruined.

The nuts are gone, probably turned out and eaten by Dumb. There was no shortage of wild dog meat buried in the snow, and it didn't look like a wild beast had come to sweep it.

The most amazing thing is the mountain vine, which wraps up along the dead vine hanging down from the big tree, and is now several feet high, and has begun to draw large leaves. The fly in the ointment is that the vines are too thin, and at first glance there is a lack of fertilizer. Behind the big tree where Liu Ci lives is a protruding boulder five or six meters high, firewood is stacked against the rock, and the place where grapes are planted is on the other side of the tree. As for the big rock, when she can wield the greatsword, it is better to hollow out the inside and make a stone house than to sleep in a tree hollow.

The three-leaf five-spiced blood vine and wild ginger seeds are planted, and the fish soup in the stone pot is already rumbling and bubbling with aroma, and then the washed water celery is put in, and the green silk floats in the fish soup, which makes people very appetizing at a glance.

Liu Ci drank the soup to the bare bout, and was busy digging a new fence gate.

When the sleeping nest was comfortable, it was also dark, Liu Ci did not vomit this night, lying in her warm and familiar nest, listening to the sound of the wind blowing on the fence door, feeling particularly relieved.

In the dream, a puppy that walked and always wrestled looked at her pitifully, Liu Ci wanted to beckon it to drink fish soup, but the puppy bit her and turned around and ran into the woods, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
