After all, this is a prehistoric world that cannot be measured by common sense, and he can't say whether there will be water beasts that want to breathe suddenly appear.

So to be on the safe side, Ye Xi asked the warrior to come back, and then cut down two branches, one long and one short, and after cutting them slightly, they tied them together with animal skin belts to make an "L" shaped thing, and used this thing to catch the fish that jumped on the ice to the shore.

At this moment when Ye Xi was making tools, a lot of fish jumped up, and now at a glance at the ice surface, there are at least more than a hundred fish.

Although half of them were small gray-skinned fish the size of a palm, it was enough for the warriors to be happy that they couldn't find the north.

Seeing that there were so many fish in this hole, the warriors began to get ready to move. After questioning Ye Xi, they were bold and dug two more holes in a distance from each other. Then, very actively, after making a crude fishing tool by hand, he stood on the shore and began to fish with a smile on his face.

The barrels brought were quickly filled.

The warriors happily carried barrels full of fish to the mountain, and then carried three empty barrels down from the mountain.

The clansmen on the top of the hill widened their eyes when they saw that they were carrying a wooden barrel full of fish. After asking about the situation, they all rushed down the mountain in disbelief.

And when they arrived at the foot of the mountain, they really saw that the entrance of the cave seemed to be spraying fish, and the fish were constantly bubbling out.

They watched the spectacle in amazement, and muttered that these fish had not been magically used, so they were stupid and jumped out by themselves.

Ye Xi was afraid that the movement on the shore would be too loud and attract water beasts in the water, so for the sake of caution, let the people who watched the excitement all go back to the mountain after watching for a while, and the people who fished were not allowed to make too much noise.

After this was enough to catch seven large buckets of fish, there were finally fewer fish emerging from the ice.

Ye Xi asked the soldiers to stuff back the ice cover they had dug up, and then they carried the full wooden barrel back.

The people on the top of the mountain were crazy with joy when they saw so many fish.

Anyone who has spent so many days half-starved will drool at the sight of food.

Even Ye Xi, who didn't dare to let go of his stomach to eat because of the lack of food for so long, stared at the fish in the barrel at this time, his eyes were about to glow green.

There were six large barrels of fish caught this time, and the tribesmen were naturally reluctant to eat them all, so they wanted to keep them in the tank.

It's just that in the small winter, the frozen water in the tank has long been drunk, and there is no water to be found for a while. So everyone had to throw the live fish in an empty tank without water, and their hearts were desperate for rain.

Ye Xi picked out a few big fish with blue and gray skins and prepared them for the star algae to eat. He quickly descaled the big blue-gray fish, then cut it into small pieces and placed them in a wooden bowl.

The last few frozen fish in the tank didn't last a few days before they were eaten by the algae, so in the last days, they all ate dried meat like humans.

After a short winter, twelve more starflies died, and now only five starflies are left gasping.

Although food has been given priority to them, and they have been kept closest to the fire. But after all these days, their brightness still decreases a lot, and they refuse to move all day long.

It seems that these only five star algae are also dying.

Ye Xi took the wooden bowl containing the fish and walked to the stone basin where the star algae was placed, and was about to pour all the fish into the stone basin. But he seemed to notice something, and his eyes froze suddenly.

He bent down, leaned his face closer to the stone basin, looked and looked, and noticed that the star algae seemed to be a little brighter?!

This change is actually very small, that is, Ye Xi's eyesight is good, so he can find it.

Ye Xi's spirits perked.

He was about to give up raising star algae, but at this moment, he found out that he had taken a turn!

He began to think carefully about how the past two days had been different from usual.

The first is that the hoarfrost recedes and the temperature rises.

But if it's really because of the temperature that makes the algae a little brighter, then the discovery is basically useless. So Ye Xi ruled out this possibility first.

Ye Xi thought carefully one by one, apart from the temperature, what was the difference.

By the way, yesterday Naughty put his hand into the stone basin and teased them for a while, causing them to flee in all directions because they were afraid.

Could it be that by helping them to exercise more, they have become a little healthier?

No, Tao had teased them a few times before, but he hadn't noticed any changes in Xingzao.

That's what was fed yesterday?

But the jerky that was still fed yesterday?

Because there was not enough food, I even fed a little less jerky than usual yesterday...... Is it because they should eat less?

I used to always raise it badly, is it because they ate too much and broke it?

Ye Xi frowned and thought.

At this time, I saw Ling and the others coming up from the place where the food was stored, holding a stack of jerky in their arms, and walking outside the house.

Ye Xi: "What's wrong?" Now the temperature outside the house is still very cold for ordinary people like them, and the temperature will rise in two days, why are they in a hurry to go out at this time.

Ling said with a bitter face: "When I first sorted out the jerky, I found that some of the jerky was rotten, and in such a cold weather, I don't know how it will rot, so I don't take it out to dry." ”

The fence on the other side was also distressed: "Maybe it rotted before it was cold, but at that time, these jerky were pressed at the bottom, so we didn't find it." ”

Rotten?

Ye Xi was stunned.

Wait, the meat that was fed to the star algae yesterday won't be rotten too!

You must know that the food of Xingzao is not fed by Ye Xi at all discretion, and sometimes the people in the house don't want Ye Xi to bother more, so they will take over the task of feeding Xingzao.

And Ye Xi felt that they were just feeding something, and they were not stupid, since they knew the amount, why did they insist on doing it themselves? So they acquiesced, and they only fed it occasionally.

Yesterday's star algae were fed by flowers.

In the little winter, the stone house was not seen all day, and the only source of light was the fire in the fire pit, and if the jerky was only a little rotten, it was normal for her not to find it.

Thinking of this, Ye Xi immediately stopped Ling: "Wait a minute, don't take out the rotten jerky to dry it first." ”

People here cherish food so much that even if the food has gone bad, they feel that they can eat it if they handle it again, and they are reluctant to throw it away.

Ye Xi: "In the past two days, while the water surface is frozen, we can catch a lot of fish, and we don't have to eat rotten jerky." ”

When they heard this, they reluctantly looked down at the rotten dried meat in their arms.

The long-standing concept of food has made them accustomed to frugality. But this is what Ye Xi said, and they will not disobey it.

Ye Xi: "Let's put these jerky here first." ”

Ling and the others put down the jerky as they were told.

Ye Xi picked up a piece of rotten jerky and glanced at the star algae in the stone basin hesitantly, but finally did not throw the jerky down. Instead, he found a small wooden basin, poured some water, and then grabbed one of the star algae and put it in.

Ye Xi cut a small piece of rotten dried meat and, under the surprised gaze of everyone, threw it into the small wooden basin.

Carrion falls into the water.

Then I saw that the star algae seemed to be hungry for three days and three nights, and its movements suddenly became agile, and it pounced violently, and gnawed the little piece of carrion.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xi's heart was mixed.

This is like a chicken that lays golden eggs has not been able to raise well, feeding nothing works, and the more it is raised, the thinner it gets, only to find out later that Nima's chicken eats grass!

You're a chicken that lays golden eggs, and you actually fucking eat grass, who would have thought of it!

Presumably, the people of the White Turtle tribe raised star algae and never fed them rotten food.

After all, the White Turtle Tribe has no shortage of food in the rainy season, and in their hearts, Xingzao is so precious, how can it be possible to feed them this kind of food?

And even if they are Ye Xi, who is short of food, if it is not a mistake, they would rather starve themselves than treat Xingzao badly!
