Chapter 13: Searching

"There's something even more fragrant."

Bai Yingying took the peeled egg in his hand, and gently broke it in two, revealing the yellow yolk, and the seductive fragrance was even stronger.

Bai Yingying handed him the other half, "Eat, it's nutritious and delicious." ”

"Hmm." Lin Xia's chick nodded like a peck.

When the two of them finished eating the two eggs, Lin Xia regretted it a little.

He licked his lips, but said regretfully: "There are five eggs in the nest, I knew that I would serve them in a nest." ”

In fact, he also wanted to take it, but unfortunately he only took the next 2...

"Nope."

Bai Yingying shook her head and said in a joking tone: "You are all gone, Mother Bird must be looking for it like crazy?" Keep a few, it will take care of the other eggs, and it won't come looking for you, the egg thief. ”

Lin Xia smiled and nodded, "Yingying is right, I forgot." ”

After a delicious lunch, the two of them set off to continue their search for a suitable cave to live in.

Bai Yingying didn't forget to remind, "Ah Xia, you cover all this dirt into the fire pit and put out the fire." Remember to cover it tightly~"

In forests, fire is dangerous and prone to fire.

When lighting a fire, be careful to isolate flammable materials, and when leaving, you must extinguish all sparks.

In the event of a fire, they and the creatures of the forest will die.

"Okay, I'll do it now." Lin Xia also understood that when he was in the tribe, the family with the fire would be warned again and again.

Bai Yingying returned to the cave and dragged out a leather bag.

She planned to let Lin Xia carry one, so that it would be easier and her feet would be faster.

Wait to find the cave, if you don't have time to come back to get the package, then you won't sleep without a bed.

The two packed up everything and continued to set off.

A good shelter should not only be the right size, but also the right location.

For example, is it a zone infested by wild beasts? Will it be poured back when it rains? Is it in the wind? Is it too wet, and reptiles are frequent? Is it an area of landslides? Is it on the path of a flash flood? Is the hole hidden enough?

Wait a minute..

There are too many factors to consider when it comes to permanent residence.

They did not dare to go too far from the tribe, and walked around the neighborhood for two or three hours, but they could not see a satisfactory natural cave.

Bai Yingying's body often does not move, and she is already tired and out of breath at this time.

She rested on a large tree for a while before she evened out her breath. Said to Lin Xia: "We can't be too far away from the tribe, we really can't, just find a place to live nearby." ”

"Hmm. That's what I thought, too. Lin Xia echoed.

Nothing is more important than safety.

Anyway, they don't have a big beast shape, as long as they can sleep in it.

The two tacitly relaxed the conditions, and when they saw the suspected cave, they would go to investigate.

It didn't take long to find a suitable cave.

It is on a rocky slope, which happens to be at the corner, and there are also plants next to it, which is relatively hidden.

The entrance to the cave is narrow enough for only one person to pass through.

But the cave is not small, about 30 square meters, and the highest point at the top is also 3 meters.

The most important thing is that the cave is relatively dry, and there are no signs of other small animals living in recent years.

Aside from being a bit inconvenient when going up and down, it's just the perfect place to live.

"That's it." Bai Yingying immediately clapped the decision.

Lin Xia showed a bright smile: "Okay." Yes, there is. ”

They have a home.

Bai Yingying took a closer look at the environment in the cave, "Let's smoke it first." ”

"Good. I'm going to look for mosquito repellent herbs. Lin Xia immediately agreed.

The two of them got busy.

Bai Yingying was picking up dry firewood near her home, and Lin Xia was picking herbs to repel insects nearby.

In just half an hour, it was ready.

Not long after the smoke came out of the cave, the little insects that had been hiding in the corners also escaped.

When the smoke almost dissipated, Lin Xia took the bundled branches and used them as a broom, and went in to sweep the dust and debris on the ground.

When he walked to the entrance of the cave, he remembered and turned around and said, "Yingying, I want to sweep the floor, the cave is dusty." You just wait for me outside, and call me if you have something. Don't run around. ”

He felt that the little female who had been taken care of by himself was too diligent and always worked by himself, which made him very worried.

Bai Yingying smiled and waved at him: "Go ahead." I was waiting at the door. ”

After Lin Xia entered, she obediently did not run around, and began to carefully observe the environment at the door of her house, thinking about whether there was anything that needed to be renovated in the future.

After all, it's not a long time to stay here for a month, but it's not short.

Bai Yingying didn't think about it for long, and a shout came from behind her.

Lin Xia poked his head out of the cave, "Yingying, come in and see if you're not satisfied!" ”

"Here we are."

Bai Yingying turned around and walked into the cave.

As soon as she entered, she could smell a special smell, a bit similar to the smell of mugwort, and like a bitter medicinal smell.

It is the residual smell of the herb just smoked, and in general it is not pungent, and Bai Yingying can accept it.

To her delight, the cave had a new look.

Lin Xia is really a very careful male orc, he not only cleans the ground, but even the original cobwebs on the top of the cave.

Lin Xia was holding a piece of animal skin and laying it in a fairly flat position, "Yingying, are you tired?" Lie here for a while, and then I'll be done with the powder. ”

In the tribe, every family can receive a certain amount of medicinal powder every half a month, which is sprinkled in the cave to repel insects and insects, and the effect is not bad.

There was a lot of medicinal powder left in the Bai family, and they came out this time and brought them all with them.

Bai Yingying was very satisfied.

Although Lin Xia, who was abducted by her, is not strong, she is honest and considerate.

Being taken care of in this way makes Bai Yingying, who has always been independent and self-reliant, feel very novel.

She didn't want to refuse, "Okay, then I'll lie down for a while." ”

Bai Yingying took off her animal skin boots with peace of mind and lay down on the animal skin.

The fur is not thick, and it is very inappropriate to come into contact with some uneven rocks.

She moved her body uncomfortably, "Axia, you will accompany me to pick up some dead branches and leaves in a while." It will be more comfortable to pad under the hide. ”

"Is it embarrassing you?" Lin Xia turned around and saw Bai Yingying's stiff posture, and hurriedly frowned and came over to check.

He didn't wait for Bai Yingying to answer, he used his hand to probe on the top, and he touched the bulge at once.

Lin Xia hurriedly hugged Bai Yingying, "It's my negligence, hurry up, I'll lay a few more layers for you." ”

Bai Yingying put her arms around his neck, took advantage of the momentum to stand up, and was moved to the corner of the animal skin to wait.

She watched Lin Xia busily take out all the animal skins and spread them layer by layer, with a serious appearance, a bit of a virtuous man's feeling.

Bai Yingying looked at Lin Xia, and there was softness in her eyes that she hadn't noticed.

"Alright!"

Lin Xia finally finished laying the animal skin, he turned around and helped Bai Yingying, "Yingying, why don't you sleep for a while, and then call you when I'm done with things." ”

"Hmm."

Bai Yingying replied softly, and as soon as she lay down, her body was covered with a layer of soft fox fur.

At this time, she was covered with a thick animal skin, covered with a plush and gentle 'quilt', and a cold heart was hot for a moment.
