Jiang Zhi kicked something on his feet, and when he looked down, he saw that it was a pair of white bones.

Instinctively, Jiang Zhi pulled me back a few steps, and only stood at a certain distance from the white bones, cautiously observing left and right, making sure that there was no danger in this vicinity, and then calmed down. He pulled me behind me to protect me, and then stepped forward again to examine it carefully.

Jiang Zhi's profession is a surgeon, so he is very familiar with bones, and when he is mentally prepared, he looks at the white bones on the ground again, and he is sure at a glance that this is not a human bone.

Hearing that he was sure that it was not a human bone, I was not afraid, and not only did I poke my head out, but the whole person walked out from behind him and joined the ranks of observation.

It's hard to imagine the scene of two people squatting on the ground, staring at a pile of white bones with relish, and commenting on them from time to time, but now there we are.

After careful observation and analysis by the two of us, Jiang Zhi finally made a diagnosis, and the bones on the ground should be the bones of large mammals such as bears.

As for how it died, I can't see it. Jiang Zhi said that it was not poisoned, and there were no scars on the bones, so it was difficult to tell how it died.

On a whim, I said, "Could it be in the winter, freezing to death?" ”

Jiang Zhi squatted down and looked at it again, and said, "I don't know." Let's not care how it died, we have to find a clean place as soon as possible, we won't leave today, it's not safe in the mountains when it's dark. ”

I thought so too, and in the end we advanced a few dozen meters and chose a tall red pine tree as the center. Preparing to clear a clearing, I took out two sickles and cut the tall grass around me with Jiang Zhi. Fortunately, this grass is a grass stalk at the bottom, and the leaves do not unfold until a third of the way, so there is a place to start when mowing the grass.

I cut a few handfuls of grass and found that there were patches of pine mushrooms growing close to the roots of the grass, which was a good thing, how could I let it go. I just mow the grass and pick mushrooms, and this mushroom picking is also addictive. Basically, if I cut a few handfuls of grass, a small patch of mushrooms would appear, and then I simply put away the sickle and followed Jiang Zhi. He was in charge of mowing the grass and I was in charge of picking mushrooms.

After a while, there was a pile of grass and a pile of mushrooms on the ground.

I looked at this wide and lush pine forest. said, "This place is really nice. If you look at these mushrooms, they are all like small umbrellas, and they are rare to look at. And this grass, let's take it back, our cattle and sheep should also be able to like it, right? ”

"I don't necessarily eat them now, but a few of our children spoil them and lead them up the mountain to eat fresh forage every day. Not necessarily interested in these. But in winter, they must be rare. "Jiang Zhi: Yes, to have such a large piece of grassland allows us to store winter food for cattle and sheep. It's also very pleasant, and mowing grass here is very time-saving and labor-saving, and the same amount of forage can save 3 or 4 times more time than in other places.

"Okay, let's not make a fire outside to cook today, you hurry up to the space and finish today's work, and then cook some food, I will also enter the space in a while, let's eat in the space, save some time, cut more grass, pick more mushrooms and go back." I had planned to have another picnic in the forest to experience the feeling of staying overnight in the woods, but now that the situation has changed, I still think it is more important to mow the grass and pick mushrooms.

Jiang Zhi still has a lot of work to do in the space, all of which must be done every day, usually we go to the space together in the middle of the night, I draw a talisman, Jiang Zhi slaughters cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks, if it is not slaughtered in batches, these animals in the space will be flooded. There are also harvesting grain and vegetables, and then we have to cultivate, and we are very busy every night.

Today, I plan to spend the time drawing talismans in the space mowing grass and picking mushrooms, and let Jiang Zhi go to the space to work by himself.

After Jiang Zhi heard my words, his brows furrowed, and he said: "No, I don't worry about you in this mountain forest by yourself, you still enter the space with me, it's not bad for a while, let's hurry up and finish the work, and then come out and continue to mow the grass." ”

"Oh, this one can't see the front of the village and the back of the store, how can there be any danger. Besides, even if there is danger, I can go into the space at any time to ask for help, and I guarantee that it is okay. Now I just want to pick mushrooms, I don't want to draw talismans, just let me draw, I can't concentrate, isn't that a waste of time, don't you say? "The more I say it, the more obvious the coquettish meaning in my tone becomes, and I know that Jiang Zhi will eat this.

Sure enough, he looked at me as if he couldn't help it, and said, "Then you can't be outside for too long, just half an hour, you have to enter the space, do you agree?" ”

He saw me nodding and said, "Then be careful yourself, hurry into the space if there is a little trouble, although there is no one here, but the animals are also very dangerous, you know?" ”

"I know, don't worry, you can do your job in the space, I'll go in and pick you up in a while." After I finished speaking, I didn't give Jiang Zhi a chance to speak, I directly held him and sent him to the space.

I touched the sweat on my forehead, and was glad that I was fast, and if I had allowed him to speak, I would have to waste a lot of time with this and that instruction.

I'm afraid that I'll forget the time to enter the space after working for a while, and Jiang Zhi is worried inside, so I take out my mobile phone first to set a fixed point (I always carry my mobile phone, whether I can make a phone call or not, I am used to carrying one with me, and when I have nothing to do, I can take out a game or something.) Then he began to bury himself in mowing the grass, and after cutting a small piece, he squatted down to pick mushrooms, and he was busy outside.

When I was busy, I didn't feel the passage of time at all, until the mushrooms and grass in front of me were piled up into a hill, and I looked up to see that I had carved out a circle about 10 meters in diameter centered on the red pine.

Just when I was about to continue to work hard, I heard a loud "squeak" sound from the heights, this sound is familiar to me, it is the cry of a squirrel, when I went into my own pine forest to work in the past two years, I often see squirrels and hear the squirrels' calls.

I wondered why the squirrel was so loud, so I looked up in the direction where the sound was coming from, and I was startled.

A loud "squeak" was followed by a myriad of "squeaks", and when I looked up, I saw a group of squirrels rushing down from a giant red pine about 15 meters away from me. It's really a batch, the trunk of the giant red pine is a 16-lane road for the petite squirrel, and these squirrels who come down occupy all 16 lanes, there are 4 or 500 of them.

They did not rush to the ground, but stopped about 2 meters above the ground. Then, I heard the "squeak" sound in all directions, and saw that the red pines as far as I could see were full of squirrels, and they all stopped in an orderly manner at a distance of 2 meters above the ground.

It feels like a red pine suddenly gaining weight again at a height of 2 meters. I think there must be tens of thousands of these squirrels, and this scene is spectacular.

If I were a bystander, I would have thought it was a shock, but I felt like the squirrels were coming at me, and I was a little curious, a little nervous, and a little bad in my heart.

Sure enough, the squirrels were in place and quieted, and I naturally shifted my gaze from the crowd of squirrels to a slightly larger squirrel crouching on the nearest red pine.

Its body was probably slightly larger than the palm of my hand, its tail hair was long and fluffy, curling on its back, its eyes were large and bright, its ears were long, and there was a bunch of red hair on the tip of its ear, which was different from other squirrels that had a bunch of black hair on the tip of their ear.

Its fur is the same as that of other squirrels, it is russet-brown and has a white belly. The limbs are small, the two hind legs are gripping the trunk of the tree, and the tail helps the body to maintain balance, forming a kind of squatting position to meet me on the pine tree.

I saw that both of its front claws were very sharp hooks, which would be enough to choke on if I were scratched.

Strangely, although it was a little different from other squirrels in appearance, and I might not be able to spot it if I didn't look closely, I naturally moved my eyes to it.

It was also looking at me with its big, bright eyes, and it looked at each other for 5 minutes, and I didn't move, and it didn't move. But I can't go down with it, I haven't finished my work yet, and it's an illegal assembly, and it's going to be banned by law.

I raised my hand and wanted to communicate with it with a gesture because I didn't think it understood me. But as soon as I raised my hand, it barked its big teeth at me fiercely, and the hair on its tail stood up alertly, and the other squirrels grinned at me as it moved.

I'm also a little confused, although I don't think it's good for them to watch me like this, but I like squirrels very much, so I'm very friendly to them, but why do they blow up when I move?

I looked at my hand and understood, I still had the scythe I had just used to mow the grass in my hand, and when I raised my hand, I raised the scythe too, and they thought I was going to attack.

I hurriedly threw the scythe to the ground, and instinctively explained: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I just forgot that I still have a scythe in my hand, I didn't mean to hurt you, don't be angry." ”

I don't know if it was my words or the act of throwing the sickle that played a role, but the squirrels were quiet, and the squirrel headed by a small bunch of red-haired squirrels with its ears was temporarily named "Red Ears", so that I thought it was kind.

Red Ear saw my movements, and knew that he didn't mean to hurt them, and the hair on his tail softened, and he didn't stand at the roots, and the expression on his face softened, and his eyes were not so sharp when he looked at me, and then he squatted on the tree and gestured with me.

I was surprised to see this series of anthropomorphic movements of Red Ear, and I was even more surprised and frightened that it could communicate with me with gestures. (To be continued.) )
