Chapter 194: Friends in the Mountains

Just as we were busy with dinner, there was a creaking sound from the trees.

As soon as I looked up, I saw that on the branch next to me, Redear was crouching on it, looking down at us.

I had a momentary weakness in my heart, after all, I didn't ask for it, but then I had peace of mind, they were all friends, what are friends for. It's just that there are good things to share with, and I just ate a little bit of its mushrooms, and it definitely won't mind.

"Red ear, you're here, come down, we'll eat in a while, our old ginger's craftsmanship is very good, I guarantee that you want to eat this meal." I brazenly greeted the red ear above, and came down to eat other people's mushrooms together.

Jiang Zhizhi didn't say anything, just let me talk nonsense with Red Ear, and he was in charge of cooking.

Red Ear sulked for a while, seeing what we should do down there, and probably figured it out, but it was useless for it to be angry, and the two of us didn't pay attention to it at all, so it rolled its eyes at the sky, and then jumped up to us a few times, and squatted down next to the small wooden plate and bowl I had prepared for it, waiting to eat dinner made of its own things.

After a while, the rice was ready, I specially put a bowl of mushroom soup for the red ear, and used chopsticks to pick up a large piece of meat on the belly of the fish for it to dry, and then watched Jiang Zhi pull out the clod of soil from the fire, and gently knocked the mud layer outside to break, and the fragrance of chicken was emitted in the air.

This red ear somehow opened up the spiritual intelligence, and there are a lot of humanized actions in life. I guess I've eaten cooked chicken before. I know it's delicious, that's why I have that action.

"I'm hungry, I'll tell you. This is our chef ginger's specialty dish, you haven't eaten chicken for a long time, you're welcome for a while, but it's hard to eat, it's full today. "I'm pretending to be generous, but it's actually a joke about what Red Ear just did.

After listening to my words, Red Ear began to squeak with a strong backbone. Then he turned his back to show that he would not eat the food that came to him, and as a result, the chicken was pulled out of the dirt little by little. The smell of meat became stronger and stronger, and Red Ear couldn't stand the temptation and secretly turned his little head around.

I was about to continue laughing at it, but Jiang Zhi stopped me with a look, he wanted me to stop in moderation. Don't really people off. People are going to give us a good look.

I stuck out my tongue, not daring to tease Red-Ear anymore, and said, "Red-Ear, come on, if you don't eat it, you will suffer, we eat your mushrooms, and you eat our chicken in turn, isn't it just right?" ”

The red ears were already tempted by the smell of chicken. At this time, I gave it a step, and it was no longer pretentious. Quickly ran to his own rice bowl and waited for me to tear the chicken for it.

I couldn't help but look at its funny appearance, and I laughed out loud with a snort, and when I saw the little eyes of Red Ear staring at me, I quickly restrained my smile, put on a correct posture, and the movement in my hand was also fast, first tearing off a chicken leg for Red Ear, blowing it and putting it on the wooden plate in front of it.

Redear was very satisfied with my service, and nodded to me very gentlemanly to express his gratitude, I couldn't help but laugh at its rat-like appearance, for fear of making it angry, I could only turn around and laugh to myself.

Jiang Zhi saw that I was so unfocused, and knocked me on the head helplessly, and whispered: "How old are you, how can you still be like a child." ”

We all had a great time, and most of it was me talking to Redear about some of the things we've been doing in the village for the past few months.

Later, I also talked about the pig farm in the village," ...... Now there are a total of 30 pigs in the village, and after the snow this winter, they can kill and eat meat, and their own pigs are much better than the pigs that eat feed sold in the original market, and we are fed with bran and grass, although the growth is slow, but the taste is absolutely fragrant......"

I was talking about being happy, Jiang Zhi stabbed me next to me, I was very unhappy to look back at him, this person is really, I can finally show off my achievements with others, why don't you let me say it happily, you must know that in the village, everyone knows these things, and I have no one to show off.

Jiang Zhi angrily pouted at me, meaning to let me look at the red ear, I turned around and looked, the red ear was in a daze, and the chicken leg in his hand was not eaten, what is the matter, what did I say to make it in a daze? I began to think back to what I had just said, and it seemed like I hadn't said anything.

I looked at Jiang Zhi a little bewildered, hoping that he, a bystander, could give me a little hint, Jiang Zhi just said two words "pork", I immediately woke up, this red ear will not be thinking about pork, unlikely, it is a squirrel, although it is an omnivore, but the meat it really eats is just some insects, just gave it a chicken leg, it only gnawed a little, it was the size of two bites, how could it remember pork, did it eat before.

Since I had questions, of course, I had to ask the person concerned for answers, so I asked, "Red Ear, have you ever eaten pork before?" ”

Red-eared came back to his senses from his stupe, and then fell back into his memories, and I saw the remembrance on its face, so I didn't bother it, and ate another chicken leg, waiting for it to come back to its senses.

After a while, Hong'er came back to his senses, but his expression was a little low, and he was not interested in looking at the chicken leg in his hand.

I felt very uncomfortable when I saw it like that, and it must have remembered all the things of its previous owner, so it said, "Don't be sad, when the winter comes, Lao Jiang and I will send you some pork, so that you can all eat something to replenish your body." "I don't know if squirrels can eat pork, and I don't know if it's special or if squirrels eat chicken like this.

Red Ear listened to my words, and the look in his eyes was soft again, and he gestured to us, so that we don't have to take it, and there was no one to eat here, and then it thought about it again, and squeaked at the sky.

Although we can understand its meaning from its gestures, but there is still nothing we can do about such a professional squirrel language, so we don't know what it means, see if the red ears squeak, and start to gnaw on the chicken legs, I estimate, its convulsions for a while are over, will it also reach menopause, I secretly slandered in my heart.

This dinner was very filling, and the mushrooms were very fresh, especially the mushrooms fried by Jiang Zhi (this was made in the space, and the fire outside was not so high and not easy to control. Jiang Zhi sprinkled some seasoning powder on the fresh mushrooms, which made them even more soft and sweet.

When the red ear began to eat, it was choked by the spice powder on it and sneezed several times, and then saw the sweetness of our food, so it tried to get close again, and only dared to eat it when it got used to it, but it also liked this taste and ate it piece by piece.

By the time we had finished dinner, it was already dark, and we sat around the lit campfire.

"Redear, did you lose a lot last winter?" I know that a lot of squirrels froze to death and starved to death last year, and it wasn't until we came and left some pine nuts for Redears that the situation was relieved, but some of the squirrels still froze to death.

Red Ear heard me ask, his face was a little sad, as soon as I saw it, don't ask, this opening will make people sad.

"Then the current situation is okay, do you usually need to drink water?" I don't know if they usually want to drink water, but I just want to know if such dry weather has an impact on them.

Red Ear gestured with me, and I finally understood what it meant, and blamed me for asking this question, which was too difficult for a squirrel to answer.

Red-eared people live in this pine forest, most of the time they get up in the morning to drink the dew on the pine branches, but because it has been too dry recently, they can't find the dew to drink every morning, so they start to look for other berries in the pine forest that can replace drinking water, but there are only pine trees here, no berries, so they can only gnaw some tender green pine needles recently to extract some water, but this is not a long-term solution.

I pondered for a moment and decided to tell Redear about the end times so that it could be prepared.

"Red ear, the weather last year and this year is not an occasional phenomenon, as animals, you should be born with a sense of disaster, and in the next few years, it will be such abnormal weather, so you have to think of a way to get you and your partner through this disaster safely." It is said on TV that animals have an instinctive sense of the disaster that is about to happen, and then do something beyond common sense.

After listening to this, Red Ear and I discussed with me how to find enough water in the summer if we store enough food in the summer.

Finally, I proposed that it could have its companions pick all the mushrooms from the grass and hang them on the branches of the trees to dry, so that they would not spoil for a few years. And then they need a storage room at a high point, and they can't bury pine nuts or anything in the ground, and when it snows, they can't dig this small body. As for the problem of water in the summer, I think the solution is to plant some fruit trees in the red pine forest, and there will be a lot of fruit every year, and the red ear can get water from the fruit.

As for the years when the fruit is not yet ripe and fruitful, the fruit problem is solved by us as friends, and we say that we will leave enough fruit for them after dawn tomorrow. In the future, if I have the opportunity, I will regularly come to the mountains to see them and leave them some necessities.

That's it, I said, Red Ear gesture, we also discussed it for a long time, until Jiang Zhi said that it was too late, it was time to rest, Red Ear said goodbye, gestured and said that it would come again tomorrow morning. (To be continued......)
