Chapter 72: Wheat

Shen Xiaoxiao stood there steadily, looking excited, his eyes full of disbelief and surprise, and his eyes were full of fanaticism.

"Xiaoxiao, is there any problem?" Seeing Shen Xiaoxiao's appearance, Xiao Yan was a little nervous for a while.

Shen Xiaoxiao grabbed Xiao Yan's hand with both hands and said excitedly, "Do you know what this is?" ”

Xiao Yan looked at her suspiciously, then at the grass, and said uncertainly, "Isn't it the grass that chickens eat?" ”

Shen Xiaoxiao shook his head, with irrepressible excitement in his voice, "No, this is not grass, it's wheat, it's grain, it's food, with this, we can eat steamed buns and pasta." ”

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at this piece of golden wheat shining in the sun, she didn't expect that there would be wheat here, no wonder the chickens here are so fat, they don't worry about eating and drinking, they come to the wheat field to eat when they are hungry, and they don't have to worry about having no food to eat at all.

Although Xiao Yan didn't understand what Shen Xiaoxiao was talking about, seeing her so excited, she also knew that these grasses should be very important things.

Shen Xiaoxiao let go of him and walked towards the wheat field, her hand gently plucked the wheat grains, and the wheat plants were full of plump grains, which made people happy.

"With that, we don't have to worry about starving in the winter." Shen Xiaoxiao said excitedly, although there is some food in his hand now, no one will have too much, especially in this era, there is no sense of security at all if there is no food in his hand.

But she didn't expect that there would be wheat here, and it was behind the mountain they often visited, and if it weren't for the coincidence this time, she wouldn't have known that there was a patch of wheat hidden behind it after the winter had passed.

"Xiao Yan, is there a tribe here?" Although she was excited, Shen Xiaoxiao did not forget about it, but she estimated that she didn't, otherwise it would be impossible for this group of pheasants to eat so fat.

"Nope." Xiao Yan shook his head, their tribes are far apart, otherwise they live too close, and they are looking for things in this range, so that neither tribe can find food for the winter.

And this is a weed that no one wants, even if there are other tribes, no one will say anything when Xiaoxiao picks it back.

"That's good, let's cut it and take it back." Shen Xiaoxiao's eyes were full of eagerness, since it was ownerless, it was hers, she thought it would be nice if there was rice, but she didn't expect that there was no rice, but wheat appeared.

Although she loves to eat, she now enjoys eating a few bites of pasta.

And it's all food, she doesn't dislike it, only too little, if there is more, it would be better.

"Xiao Yan, you bring the eggs back first, and then take the basket and load it." After picking a little, Shen Xiaoxiao found that there was nothing to hold the wheat grains, so he said, Xiao Yan was unwilling, he didn't worry that she was here alone.

"Hurry up, don't delay, try to finish harvesting this piece before dark, and dry it while the weather is good." Otherwise, if it rains suddenly, then there is no need for these wheat, and she still wants to keep a little bit for next year as seeds, if the sun is not dry enough, she will not be able to keep it at all.

"I don't worry about you." Xiao Yan expressed his concerns, after all, they didn't know if Li Chuan was still following them, if he left and Li Chuan suddenly appeared, he didn't dare to think about the consequences.

Shen Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "It's okay, he can't keep an eye on us, it's not very far from the tribe here, you go and go back quickly, there should be no accident if you are faster." ”

In fact, she was also a little worried that Li Chuan's madman didn't know where it would come from, but it was impossible for her to follow Xiao Yan back and come back again, so she didn't know how much time would be delayed, and with this time, she would be able to cut a lot of wheat.

Again, there are only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves, instead of worrying about whether he will come out to make trouble every day, it is better to give him a chance to see what he wants to do.

And she didn't believe that he could keep an eye on her every day, so he wouldn't have to save food for the winter? They were more worried about the food than the tribesmen, after all, they lived such a precarious life, and it was impossible for them to waste so much time staring at her all the time.

"If I go back with you and come back, then we don't have to do anything, and we won't be able to finish this piece today." Shen Xiaoxiao said firmly, "I'll be fine." ”

Although Xiao Yan was unwilling, he had no choice but to respond in the face of Shen Xiaoxiao's insistence, and told her to let her run away when she was in danger, and he would come back as soon as possible.

Shen Xiaoxiao responded one by one and asked him to bring the eggs back first, and she was here to cut the wheat.

Looking at this golden wheat, Shen Xiaoxiao's heart was full of energy, because she knew that this would be their rations in the future, and she was naturally happy.

Shen Xiaoxiao used a bone knife to cut off the wheat little by little and put it aside, the sun at noon became more and more hot, she picked some branches to make a hat and put it on her head and then buried her head in hard work.

Although she has been working hard to mow, but the tools are not in hand, when Xiao Yan returned, she only cut a quarter, she just estimated, almost an acre and a half of the land grew wheat.

Shen Xiaoxiao wiped a handful of sweat and then buried herself in hard work, she thought that she could finish cutting it all today and take it back, and take advantage of the good sun to dry it quickly.

"Take a break, drink some water." Xiao Yan put down the basket and approached with water, took the knife in her hand and began to cut it, Shen Xiaoxiao rubbed her sour waist, and then rubbed the wheat grains with her hands and put them in the basket.

After she rubbed most of the basket, she found that Xiao Yan had finished cutting, she was in a somewhat complicated mood, and it really couldn't be compared, so it was good, they could go back faster.

Xiao Yan also wanted to cut off what Shen Xiaoxiao had specially set aside, but was stopped by Shen Xiaoxiao, he looked at her puzzled, "Keep these for this group of chickens to eat, otherwise they will go somewhere else after cutting what they don't eat here." "When they want to catch chickens again, it won't be as easy as it is now.

It's better to leave a little wheat to keep them on so they don't leave here.

Xiao Yan didn't have any opinions, he took another basket over, and rubbed the wheat grains into the basket in the same way as Shen Xiaoxiao.

The two of them were busy until the branches of the moon took off all the grains of wheat, and the two dragged their tired bodies back to the tribe.

And the people of the tribe were also in a hurry, and some even agitated to go to them.

"Don't worry, Xiao Yan said that he and the goddess will come back later." The witch doctor calmed everyone's emotions, but in fact, she didn't know where Xiao Yan and the two went.

"But it's so late now, will they be in danger?" Some people were worried, and others also followed suit, and it could be seen that they really cared about Shen Xiaoxiao and them.

"Do you know where they went?" The witch doctor left them speechless with a single word, yes, he didn't even know where they were, how could he find them.

"It's all quiet, stay in the tribe, don't find no one by then, but you're trapped." The witch doctor said sharply, it's not that she doesn't worry about them, but she has to think about the overall situation, and she can't put others in danger just because of two people, and she also believes that Xiao Yan and they are safe, and if they don't come back so late, they may be delayed by something.
