252 spring planting busy
Jiang Li thought for a moment, "It's okay, let's cut some rattan sticks and tie them together, put the basket on it and pull it back." ”
"Good!" Mu Feng responded, "Mu Ba and I are sentry, you go to sleep first." ”
Everyone nodded, put on the animal skin and went to sleep.
Chongyi's gang ran until they couldn't run anymore, and when they saw that the mountain demon didn't chase after them, they stopped and sat on the ground, clutching their chests and pounding their hearts.
Everyone sat in a daze for a long time before they came to their senses.
Only then did I hear the sound of owls screaming one after another in the silent mountain forest, the rustling sound of long insects crawling past, and the gnawing sound of mountain rats. Suddenly, an eagle swooped down, and a long worm hung on the eagle's paws and writhed.
Chong said hoarsely: "Find some firewood to make a fire." ”
Night stood up and looked at the woods in the dark woods, "I don't know if the mountain demon will come again, let's climb the tree and rest!" ”
"It's good!"
Chong climbed up the tree, leaning against the trunk of the tree in frustration and feeling his hands and feet sore, a cold night wind blew, and his sweaty body was cold for a while.

After Yao Xiaoqing dried the seeds, he asked the taro and a few Su to soak the yamsa beans and kudzu seeds.
Thinking of those sugarcanes, I went out to look at the sugarcane fields outside, and found that the sugarcane pockets in the open space had already sent out new sprouts.
In a hurry, he took a few of them back and led them out of the pit of the sugar cane, and found that the existing seed knots had sprouted. She mixed it with lime water and soaked the seed knots in lime water.
Shan Emu came over with a basket and asked, "Xiaoqing, where are these sugarcane grown?" ”
Yao Xiaoqing thought for a moment, "Plant it in the field on the other side of the north wall by the river." The ridges of the field are raised first, the furrows are opened, and the seeds are planted the next day. You don't have to worry about this, I'll give it to Taro and take the human seed. ”
Shan Emu nodded and looked at her happily, "I can finish planting all the taro this afternoon." Those sweet potato beans and kudzu, where do you think they are planted? ”
Yao Xiaoqing said with a smile: "Plant next to the sugarcane field, don't plant a piece of seed in a row, plant a mountain potato field and then plant a kudzu root field, so that all the diseases will not die." ”
"Got it! Yam beans and kudzu seeds, should they also be planted? ”
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Plant it too, the seeds have already been soaked, remember to plant them at the same interval as the stem tuber seeds." ”
Shan Emu nodded, and walked away with the prepared manure.
Pumpkins, winter melons, beans, rape, turnips, ......, there are more and more types of seeds in the tribe.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at the seeds that needed to be planted in the spring recorded in the notepad, and he was both happy and a little headache. I have a headache this spring, and I'm going to be so busy that my heels don't touch the ground.
"Let's plant the rape, then the pumpkin, the winter melon, and the beans......" she muttered as she walked into the field.
I saw that the rape field was leveled and the fertilizer was sprinkled, and Yao Xiaoqing asked the taro to start sprinkling rape seeds.
She looked up at the sky, only to see that the sun was almost setting, and turned to go to the wooden shed at the gate. And I saw that the captives were divided into two groups and stood there.
Yao Xiaoqing stepped forward to look at them and said loudly, "Have you thought about it?" ”
The tall man nodded, "Think about it, do you really let us go?" ”
"Yes!" Yao Xiaoqing pointed to the stone path under the wall, "Go up the mountain from here." ”
The strong man glanced at Yao Xiaoqing, hesitated, and walked towards the stone road with a dozen men. Seeing that he was safely gone, more than a dozen people followed.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at it lightly and found that the people who walked were all strong men, and these people should have a good life in the Great Wu Tribe.
After another half an hour, she saw that there were still seventy-three captives left in the wooden shed.
She approached the captives, looked around, and stared at them, "Is there anyone among you who wants to go?" ”
The black-faced man shook his head, "I'm not leaving." ”
"Good!" Yao Xiaoqing looked at the others, "I'll give you one last chance to leave the Yaoshan tribe." ”
"We're not leaving." The remaining captives answered.
"Well, remember, as long as you do your job well, the tribe will feed and clothe you, and if any of you want to stay and do bad things!"
Yao Xiaoqing looked at them coldly and pointed to the mountains to the west, "The mountain across the river is the last place you go. Remember? ”
The black-faced man replied loudly, "Remember." The others also shouted in response.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at them and said, "You must remember that you must love cleanliness here, you must wash your feet before going to bed every day, and you must take a bath and wash your hair every two days."
If any of you will continue to be as filthy and foul as he is now, he will be punished for not having food for the night. ”
After a group of men heard this, you look at me, I look at you, and then look at the Yaoshan warriors guarding them, and nodded together, "Yes, Qingwu." ”
Yao Xiaoqing nodded with satisfaction, "Okay!" Later, in a group of two, follow Ah Shui Bo into the tribe to clean, eat overnight food and sleep well, and start working tomorrow morning. ”
"Yes, Young Witch." The black-faced man should be the fastest.
Yao Xiaoqing turned around and entered the tribe and said to Ah Shuibo: "Shuibo, boil the hot water, wait for me to come and write down the names of those people, you go and bring them in to bathe." ”
"Got it." Ah Shui probed and took a look, "Xiaoqing, I see that most of the people are left." ”
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Hmm! They will later live outside, and after a few years of observation, they will be allowed to enter the tribe. ”
"Good!" Ah Shui boiled water and went.
Yao Xiaoqing returned to the tribe, took Yun Emu and Douzi to the treasury to get clothes, straw sandals, and soaphorn liquid, and returned to the tribe gate.
Ah Shui went out and called two captives in, a black-faced man and a skinny man, Yao Xiaoqing recorded the names of the two.
The black face is called Agu, and the thin man is called Agu.
Douzi gave two sets of clothes and pants to the two of them, pointed to the straw sandals in the basket, and said, "Choose the straw sandals that fit you yourself." ”
The two looked at the clothes and pants in their hands and saluted to Yao Xiaoqing gratefully, "Qingwu, we will work hard." ”
Yao Xiaoqing smiled, "Go ahead!" As long as you work hard, the Yaoshan tribe will not treat you badly. ”
Ah Shui took the two to the back bath room and taught them how to use soap and horn liquid and how to bathe with water.
"Yes, yes, we remember." Ah Ni and Ah Gu responded one after another.
After Ah Shui left, the two looked at each other and smiled across the wall, thinking that staying in the Yaoshan tribe might be a good choice.
Yao Xiaoqing recorded the names of the people left behind, and returned to the courtyard dam with a notebook.
As soon as I arrived, I saw Ada carrying a basket and walking in with a smile.
"Xiaoqing, Mu Feng and Jiang are back from them."
Yao Xiaoqing turned around and saw Jiang Li walking over with a basket, "Huh! Why didn't you come in through the gate? Where does this grain come from? Did the Great Witch Tribe really exchange food for those captives? ”
Jiang Li saw her question after question, put down the basket on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "We grabbed it!" ”
