Seeing the black badger's eyes rolling around, the fire beaver suddenly became suspicious, stared at him and said, "Black badger, is there something you haven't told me?" ”

Under the gaze of the fiery eagle falcon, the black badger was a little frightened, "Chief, I, I ......"

The fire beaver looked at him and shouted, "Say, what are you hiding from me?" ”

The black badger didn't dare to look at the fire civet, and said hesitantly: "Chief, that day, I, I followed the mountain rat, and saw that he and Ah He were killed by Yaohu. ”

"What did you say?" The fire beaver thought he had misheard, "Say it again! ”

"I saw Yaohu kill the mountain rat and the river." After the black badger finished speaking, he glanced at the fire beaver nervously, and lowered his head again.

"It's been so many days, why didn't you tell me earlier?" The beaver was so angry that he punched him.

The black badger sat down on the ground, hanging its head silently.

"Yaohu, you dare to kill the mountain rat and Ah He! Did Daou also be killed by you? Yaohu, I shouldn't have let you go! ”

The fire beaver lost three henchmen in a row, and he was so angry that he waved his fist and roared loudly, hoping to find Yaohu and kill him immediately.

After he roared and vented, he took a few deep breaths and began to think: he couldn't let Yaohu and them go, he had to go far away to hunt and find them. If they don't find it in the spring, they will wait for the summer, and they will always go to the hills and mountains to exchange for magic medicine and salty salt, and then they will settle accounts with Yaohu.

The fire beaver made up his mind, looked at the black badger and shouted: "Get up, take your weapon and take me to hunt in the direction where Yaohu and they went, and find them by the way." ”

"Yes, yes—" The black badger nodded as he got up, turned and ran out.

The black badger took the fire civet to the forest where Yaohu killed the mountain mouse and Ah He, and searched for a circle, but he couldn't find even the bones of the mountain rat and Ah He.

The fire beaver stared at the black badger, "You say, where are they going?" ”

The black badger pointed to the woods in front of him, "I didn't dare to look, I just knew that they were going that way." ”

The fire beaver gave him a hateful look, and led the people towards the mountain forest in front of him.

Yao Xiaoqing woke up and learned that Yao Hu and Da Shi had gone to check the trap together.

After going out for a spin, the golden retriever still hasn't come back, maybe there is no fruit in the mountains and forests here that it likes to eat!

Seeing Mu Feng carrying a basket on his back and preparing to hunt, he thought that even if the bag of salt she brought was saved, so many people could eat for about twenty days at most.

If you don't have salt, you have to eat raw meat and drink animal blood to replenish salt, and eating raw meat and raw blood is easy to get sick bacteria, so you still have to find salt.

Yao Xiaoqing hurriedly stopped Mu Feng, "Mu Feng, when you were hunting in the mountains, did you ever see cattle and sheep licking the rocks or soil on the cliffs?" ”

Mu Feng thought for a moment, "I didn't pay attention to it, what's wrong?" ”

Yao Xiaoqing looked at him, "When you and they were hunting, they saw cattle and sheep licking rocks or soil, remember to lick the soil or rocks they licked, and bring them back for me to see, it may be salt." ”

"Really?" Mu Feng stared at her with wide eyes.

Yao Xiaoqing looked at him and nodded, "Really! ”

Mu Feng smiled in surprise, "Okay, I'll take a good look." ”

Yao Xiaoqing took a bamboo tube and filled it with water, and took a few compressed biscuits to Mu Feng, asking him to distribute them to Yan and the bull. I watched a few people walk away with stone knives and wooden spears.

Hua came in from outside the cave, pointed to the clay pot in the ash heap and said to her, "Xiaoqing, have you seen if the jar is burned?" ”

"I'll see." Yao Xiaoqing picked up the ash pile, picked up all the earthen pots and lids that had been burned to earthy brown, knocked lightly, made a clanging crisp sound, lifted the jar and put it to his ears, and heard a "buzzing" sound inside.

I tried to close the lid, and there was one that didn't have a little gap after the lid was closed, and two of which were a little out of place, but they worked.

Hua looked at her nervously, "Xiaoqing, is it broken?" ”

Yao Xiaoqing smiled at her, "It shouldn't be, let's go to the ditch to wash it and fill it with water first." ”

"Yes." Hua lifted the two jars and walked towards the ditch.

Yao Xiaoqing carried one and took a lid to the ditch, washed it and filled it with water, wiped the water outside the jar, and found no signs of leakage.

smiled and said to the flower that looked at her expectantly, "The jar has been burned successfully." ”

Hualu excitedly hugged the jar with a bright smile on her face, "Yes!" Burned, burned. ”

The two happily carried the earthen jar back to the cave, and Hua took the two lids to the ditch to wash.

Yao Xiaoqing thought that when her mother bought a sand pot and went home, she had to cook a full pot of porridge, saying that the sand pot that had been raised by rice juice was not easy to leak, so she thought about it and scooped a bowl of rice in the jar, put it on the earthen stove and began to boil porridge.

Sitting there, he turned his head to see the tub and barrel in the corner, and walked over happily.

But after one night's work, Yaohu took the mountain and the big stone and dug out three wooden basins and two buckets.

The wooden basin and barrel have been carefully polished, there is no burr to the touch, and the wood has a faint reddish-brown stripe, which looks particularly natural and simple, and there is a faint aroma when smelling.

The barrel was lifted, but it wasn't too heavy, and I wonder what kind of wood they chose? Think about what to use to drill two holes in it, tie a rope and you can lift water.

The size of the wooden basin is about the same size as the usual washbasin, and it is a bit heavy to pick up.

Yao Xiaoqing thought to herself: Now you can boil water to wash your hair.

A surprised shout came from outside, "Xiaoqing, the leader has caught a wild boar." ”

Yao Xiaoqing hurriedly ran out, and saw Worm Bo and Shui Bo climbing up carrying a wild boar, and the two of them couldn't close their mouths with laughter.

"Uncle worm, my father didn't come back?"

The two of them panted and laughed: "Chief, they went to shoot wild ducks." ”

Yao Xiaoqing looked at the wild boar and was so happy, "Wow! Now you can barbecue jerky again, if only you could catch a wild boar every day. ”

The two put down the wild boar that had been pierced with a few bloody holes, and the worm uncle smiled, "How can there be such a good thing!" I don't know if I catch it this time and whether it will be next time. ”

Yao Xiaoqing thought to herself: It's not good there, you can dig traps in another place!

The two put down the wild boar, did not even rest, picked up the stone knife and began to peel the skin.

Hua smiled and said to Yao Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, I'll dig the soil, make a big jar, put dried meat, and put lard." ”

Yao Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, "Okay, make a big jar." ”

The flower went to dig the clay with great interest.

Yao Xiaoqing stirred the porridge in the jar a few times, let the rice soup coat the entire jar, covered the lid and cooked for a while.

I made a straw mat and put it on the handle of the jar, poured the porridge into the other two jars in turn, boiled it for a while and left it aside to dry.

took out an iron pot and boiled a dozen duck eggs, and ate them with white porridge.

After washing the earthen jar, he came back with the jar, cut the fat meat, plate oil, and flower oil into small pieces and put it into the jar as big as a small clay jar, poured two bowls of water into it, and began to refine the oil.

Then blanch the fat sausage and pork belly twice, clean and cut them and put them in the jar, thinking that if I have time to find out, whether there is any wild garlic, wild onion, wild ginger or something.

Boil the fat intestines to boil out the oil, pour the remaining barbecue powder into the jar and stir-fry, add salt and water to cover the lid and simmer. There is also a jar of stewed pork lung soup with large bones.
