21 caves
Tang Qingqing's three elder brothers had no problem living in that cave, they packed Tang Qingqing's things from the cave where the tribe lived into the three animal skin bags, which would be handed to Li Xiao: "This is Qingqing's things, let's pack them up and bring them over, you can take them back to your own cave and use them." ”
Li Xiao took the thing and put it aside: "Okay big brother." ”
Tang Qingqing's three elder brothers, under the command of the black sister-in-law, moved their luggage into the natural big cave.
Here he found a clean place for a few animal skin bags and put them away, cut a large handful of long thatch with his claws and bundled them into a simple broom, and climbed up to the cave on the other side with a few jumps.
Tang Qingqing was also carried by Xuan Jiu and climbed to the front desk of the cave where they were going to live, and saw that this cave was also quite large, and this cave was obviously a cave dug by man.
It's just that the platform in front of it is not very big, and there is a small cave next to it that should be used for putting things, Li Xiao is holding a broom made of long thatch, and is sweeping the dirty things in the hole outward.
Seeing Tang Qingqing come up and glance at Xuan Jiu disapprovingly, the cave has not been cleaned up and the dust is so big, what did he bring Qingqing up for.
Xuan Jiu scratched his head embarrassedly, Qingqing was about to come up, he didn't think much about it, so he brought her up, and now he saw the dusty cave and realized that something was wrong.
Tang Qingqing didn't care about this, she said to Xuan Jiu next to her: "You go to the spring and bring a bucket of water, let's wipe the cave well, so that it is comfortable to live." ”
Xuan Jiu heard Tang Qingqing's words and hurriedly jumped off the cliff platform to find a wooden bucket to fetch water.
Tang Qingqing took out a piece of cloth that he usually used to wrap his hair when he worked, and also wrapped his long hair at this time, saving a while to clean up the cave and make it dusty.
Li Xiao took a piece of animal skin and wiped the stone table and stone bench next to him, and pushed Tang Qingqing there to do: "You sit here to rest, you don't need to clean up the cave." ”
Tang Qingqing looked at Li Xiao in surprise, how could she think that Li Xiao had come out of the Moon Tribe, as if she was better for herself.
Even talking to himself has become more, he rarely spoke in the past, but Xuan Jiu often followed behind him like a chatterbox.
Xuan Jiu came up with a bucket of water, and saw Tang Qingqing sitting at the stone table boredly watching, and swept the small stones and dust swept out to the other side.
He poured water into the wooden basin he had brought with him, took a piece of animal skin next to him, put it in the basin, wet it and twisted it, and then took it to the cave.
Tang Qingqing also wanted to help and was about to stand up, so he looked at Li Xiao's disapproving eyes, as if to say that he had already told you, you don't need to clean up, why do you still want to make trouble.
Tang Qingqing smiled awkwardly: "That... There are more people and more people can work...... Hurry up......"
Li Xiao, who had swept the inside and outside of the cave, handed Tang Qingqing a piece of animal skin: "You just wipe the outside of this, the dust in the cave is too big, I will wipe it with Xuan Jiu." ”
After speaking, he took a large animal skin dipped in water and entered the cave, until the two of them wiped the cave clean, and even the ground of the cave was wiped on both sides, and Tang Qingqing was allowed to enter.
When Tang Qingqing entered the cave, he was stunned by a large stone bed inside, the knee-high stone bed accounted for one-third of the cave, this stone bed was not made of other stones, but was specially designed as such a stone bed when digging the cave, because the stone bed was still connected to the stone wall, and the shape was like a kang in the north.
There are also stone tables and benches in the cave, and there is a stove not far from the entrance of the cave, where you can cook with a pot.
Tang Qingqing suddenly reacted, she turned her head, looked at Li Xiao and asked tentatively, "This is where you used to live." ”
The corners of Li Xiao's mouth raised a smile and nodded: "... You're right...... This is where I used to live. ”
Tang Qingqing also smiled, he didn't expect that the place where Li Xiao lived before was so beautiful, and the scenery outside was good.
Xuan Jiu, who was unwilling to be left out in the cold, walked up to Tang Qingqing and took her hand, looked at her with some resentment in his eyes and said, "The place where I used to live can be beautiful, and I will take you to see it when I have time." ”
Tang Qingqing took out his hand: "Just talk, don't move your hands and feet." ”
They had already eaten lunch on the way, but Li Xiao was a male orc with a good heart, and he carried Tang Qingqing's several big animal skin bags onto the cliff platform and called Xuan Jiu out.
He said to him, "It's still early, let's go hunting in the forest behind the valley, and we must store enough food before the rainy season, so that Qingqing will not starve with us." ”
Xuan Jiu heard that if they didn't hunt hard now, Qingqing would probably starve with them in the rainy season, so he was not calm, and he was not sticking to Tang Qingqing in order to gain attention.
"Qingqing, I'm going hunting, I'll accompany you when I come back in the evening,"
Xuan Jiu jumped a few times and went down the cliff platform to hunt in the forest behind the valley.
Tang Qingqing looked at Xuan Jiu, who had left, funny, what a cute male.
Seeing Tang Qingqing smiling in the direction that Xuan Jiu left, his eyes flashed, and he took out an extra-large animal skin from the animal skin bag and spread it on the stone bed.
"Qingqing, you rest first, and we'll clean up these things when we come back in the evening."
Tang Qingqing also smiled and nodded: "Okay, your arm is not completely healed, you have to be careful when hunting." ”
Hearing Tang Qingqing's concern for herself, she screamed and pressed the corners of her raised mouth down: "Don't worry, I'll be careful." ”
Then he jumped off the cliff to hunt.
Before leaving, he also called Tang Qingqing's brothers together, and the rainy season was coming in about half a month at most, and he didn't want Qingqing to worry about the lack of food for his brothers' families.
Tang Qingqing stood on the cliff platform and watched Li Xiao and her three brothers go hunting, she turned around and went into the cave and did not go to bed, but opened a few animal skin bags, took out all the things in them and put them where they should be.
After packing up the contents of a few large animal skin bags, she went to clean up the small cave next to her, and waited for a while to store food.
After coming back, I took the bacon and bacon that had been marinated and dried some time ago to a cool place and hung it, and let the mountain wind dry it slowly, so that the meat would not be easy to spoil.
“…… Qingqing, what are you doing? ”
Tang Qingqing heard her sister-in-law standing at the door of the cave diagonally opposite her calling her, and when she turned around, she saw that her sister-in-law was also taking out the meat to dry.
"Sister-in-law, I'm also taking out the meat to dry."
The two sisters-in-law were doing things and chatting, and before they knew it, the sun was setting in the west.
The passage into the valley was covered by the large rocks pushed by the roar when the males went out hunting.
The males came back from hunting and the sunset had already covered the sky, and they were standing there carrying the hunted prey one by one, and Qingchuan pushed away the big stone blocking the entrance, and they carried the prey into the valley.
After they came in, Qingchuan slowly moved the big stone to the mouth of the valley, because it was inside, it was a little difficult to move the big stone, Xuan Jiu saw it, put down the prey and walked over to help.
