Chapter 165 There is something in the cave
there is something in the cave
As a natural human insect repellent, Ding Xiao has no pressure to sleep in the forest overnight.Even Kun is very happy with the special effects of his baby. He hasn't been harassed by mosquitoes for a long time.Even on summer nights, there are no annoying mosquitoes and bugs around me, but it is still unavoidable to hear the calls of nocturnal creatures, big and small.There is no relatively closed tent to cover it, so it is really noisy.
In fact, Ding Xiao felt very excited because he was finally on his way home.When a person is excited, he cannot fall asleep.At first, he was still tossing and turning on the animal skin blanket, thinking about what happened to Dad and Dad, and thinking about how the land at home was doing.In the end, he even thought about the half-orc cub that was born two months ago, but he still didn't feel sleepy.
In the end, he couldn't take it anymore and simply sat up, leaning on his black tiger's stomach and stroking its fur: "Kun, are you asleep?"
Without a tent, Brother Kun turned into a beast to rest in the end.After dinner, I kissed and rubbed for a while, and I didn’t bring any ointment in the wild, so I couldn’t take it any further. Transforming into a beast shape can prevent me from continuing.Secondly, this is an unfamiliar place after all. Even a safe zone is not necessarily [-]% safe. She is most sensitive to her surroundings when she is in the shape of a beast. The key is that she can block the night wind so that Xiaoxiao will not catch cold.
Look how reliable and versatile a strong male mate is!
"Homesick?" Kun asked with certainty.
"Yeah. But not all of them, maybe it's because of being too excited." Immediately afterwards, he began to reflect on himself. If this is the case when he goes out for a trip in the future, he will be homesick after a few days away?As expected, I am still too young!A good man's ambition is in the four directions!
Kun patted Xiaoxiao's head with his tail: "In the future, we will go out once a year, limited to two months, okay?"
Sure enough, it is his own black tiger, he really understands his own inner activities! "Okay! But this doesn't mean you can't go too far away?" Even if the earth that I'm familiar with here has changed on the surface and land, but theoretically, the area has not changed much, right?So no matter how fast Kun runs, two months is not long.What's more, they are still looking for all kinds of plants and animals while walking, how can they just look at the flowers.
Kun continued to use his tail to take advantage of Xiaoxiao's small waist: "If you get used to it, you can take it longer."
Well, if you get used to it, you can ignore the wretched movements of the tail...
The two of them slowed down, except that Kun would turn into a beast at night, and the young couple used to walk during the day, so the speed naturally couldn't be faster.
But the two reaped a lot.I went to the Lost Forest to dig some radishes. I kept the big ones for eating, and kept the small ones for planting.But in fact, the smaller one is bigger than the bean monkey. In order to reduce the burden on the road, the two of them didn't dig too much.Anyway, after going back to planting, the radish can also be seeded. With the seeds, next year there will be a small piece, and you can go to the Lost Forest to harvest the seeds~!
The problem with sweet peppers is not big, because they can't be stored for a long time, so Bai Yue promised to bring some to Xiaoxiao every time she came to pick up barbecue sauce.Of course, Ding Xiao didn't take all of them back.In the safe area, he still made two sweet pepper seedlings, and asked Kun to simply make a small wooden frame flowerpot. After two days of observation, the vitality of the two pepper plants was very strong, and there was no sign of wilting after being transplanted. The state of the head drooping, it seems that it is not a problem to take it home and raise it.
In fact, there are really many things around Tiger God City. If most of them are not different from their Tianhe Village, Ding Xiao would like to be "smooth".Especially the route they chose, two days after they left the safe zone of Hushen City, he found the holy food of summer—watermelon.
It's not the big cucumber near Tianhe Village, this is the real watermelon that Ding Xiao is familiar with.Seeing this kind species, Ding Xiao was very happy. "Kun, have you ever eaten this watermelon?"
Kun nodded: "It's delicious, sweet, and there's a lot of water. But it's rare near Tianhe Village." After speaking, he looked around, "There seem to be a lot of them here."
"This melon has grown. We ate the pulp, kept the seeds, and brought them back to plant! Let me tell you, this watermelon is a good thing to relieve the heat. It's too hot in summer, and people are very irritable and feel irritated. When it’s not enough, eat a few pieces of watermelon, or drink a bowl of watermelon juice, and you will feel better immediately. Let me tell you, watermelon is not only delicious for its pulp, but also for its rind. It can be used as a side dish or stuffing My son, eat fried meat, in short, as long as it is thick enough, it tastes very fragrant and good. Ah yes, if there is an ulcer in the mouth...it is very painful, blistered or broken, watermelon is also curative. "While speaking, Ding Xiao used the dagger that Kun made for himself to divide the watermelon.
Hearing Xiaoxiao mention so many benefits of watermelon in one breath, Kun couldn't help laughing: "It's such a good thing, let's take a few away."
Ding Xiao hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "Forget it, just take these watermelon seeds. It weighs a lot. You can't hit this thing, or the meat inside can't be eaten. Oh, right, it's a day away from here." How far is Hecun?"
Kun narrowed his eyes: "If you go this way, it will take about twenty days. But if I run, I can go back and forth in two days."
Ding Xiao was embarrassed at the difference in speed between the walking and the male running, but then his eyes lit up: "Then after we go back, you can bring a few more people back, and then scatter the seeds in our safe area , so that I can eat melons on the spot every summer in the future, how about it?"
Kun took the watermelon from Xiaoxiao and nodded, "Okay. Do you want melon rind today?"
Glancing at the melon rind, which is about three fingers thick, Ding Xiao touched his chin: "Yes, the thickness of the melon rind is very suitable. But we don't have noodles, so I'll make melon rind stir-fried pork for you, and try the cold salad again." Yes. Next time I will make you dumplings stuffed with watermelon rinds, and you will be able to eat a lot."
Kun smiled: "I can eat a lot of whatever you cook."
The long-lost species is hard to resist, and Ding Xiao managed to survive after destroying half of the watermelon.On the other hand, Kun, who was still gnawing at the watermelon and carefully spitting out the melon seeds onto the leaves, was already the second melon Ding Xiao picked and cut, and there were only the last two pieces left. "Don't eat too much, it's cold, and it's very diuretic."
The taste is actually similar to the big cucumber, but you can still find the difference if you taste it carefully.The biggest difference between the two is not only color, but also sex.Cucumber is mild in nature, while watermelon is cold in nature.The male has a very hot constitution, especially in summer. Now that he ate watermelon, Kun really felt a lot more comfortable from the inside out.As for diuresis, he didn't care. "If you have enough melon rind, don't eat it."
"Pfft! You are so daring because you want melon rinds! That's fine, don't eat them, it's not suitable for you males to get full. Let's go to the river and clean up these melon rinds. Here's for you to eat! "
Pickle the melon rind with vegetable salt to remove some excess water, which is also to make the melon rind have some bottom flavor.Taking advantage of this time, Ding Xiao began to cut the half-cooked bacon.
This bacon was made by myself and Kun last night.The branches of peach wood are used, and the smoke and fire after lighting will smoke the pork that has been cleaned and salted for nearly two hours until the surface becomes dry.Of course, this is only for temporary preservation. After all, they won't be able to eat this pig for long, just to prepare for the next day.
Now that the bacon is cut open, a lot of the black parts on the outside have been cleaned and removed, and the sky eyes did not show that the black substances are poisonous, so Ding Xiao just believes that it is harmless.Waste is really not the standard of life here, so I cut it off like this, and the meat with black skin looks pretty good.The black skin, the red lean meat, the white fat meat, and the half-baked yellow and pink parts, have not yet been cooked, and it can be regarded as complete in color, fragrance and taste.
The melon rind that removes excess water is cut into two types, one is sliced, which is just right for frying meat.In order to ensure that the melon is still crisp and crisp, stir-frying is inevitable.Stir-fry the bacon with a little fruit oil until it is almost ripe, then add green onion powder and pepper powder to taste. Instead of salt, soy sauce is added to enhance the color and seasoning, and finally put the melon skin slices in.Stir fry quickly, and it will be cooked in about 1 minute.
Taking advantage of the heat, Ding Xiao personally picked up slices of meat and melon skin with chopsticks and handed them to Kun's mouth, and blew them gently a few times. "Hey, take the first bite and see how it tastes!"
Kun felt very happy, his little friend knew how to hurt others, and he was really happy to eat a magic horse for himself for the first time!Open your mouth to eat the delicious food in front of you, chew it twice, huh? !Really good!There is still a melon fragrance in the melon rind, which is slightly sweet, but not obvious.According to Xiaoxiao, it should be called Huigan.The bacon is very fragrant after being fried. Of course, he knows this without eating it, but it is really refreshing when it is put together with the melon rind. "tasty!"
Ding Xiaomei said: "That's right! Big cucumbers are not enough. Although the taste is almost the same, the skin is too thin to be used. You eat it first, and I will make another salad, but without vinegar, it will definitely be worse. !"
Delicious food is undoubtedly one of the sources of motivation for males.Regardless of Ding Xiao's dissuasion, Kun insisted on taking four watermelons on the road the next day.And they also chose the biggest ones in this melon field.This made Ding Xiao very entangled. He knew that Kun had great strength, so the weight was nothing to worry about.But it takes up space!Just these four, if you really put them in the bamboo basket, there will be no room for other things!Fortunately, Kun improvised a large net with grass vines and put the four melons in it. Speaking of it, this should be regarded as the production motivation for eating...
On the fifth day after leaving Tiger God City, the two caught up with a heavy rain.
The rain came so fast that Kun immediately set up the tent when he felt it was going to rain, but the rain still drenched the two of them.
This feeling is really too bad, Ding Xiao has brought a total of two changes of clothes, and now he is doing well, all the things in the basket have been drenched, and the changes of clothes are no exception.
Naturally, they couldn't enjoy the fire in the tent, so the two of them had to endure it until the rain stopped.Fortunately, the rain only lasted for more than an hour, and it stopped in the afternoon when there were many bright spots, but Ding Xiao still sneezed several times in disappointment.
Although I took off all the wet clothes just now, I was warmed by Kun's arms.But before that, the hot weather made people sweat all over, and the sudden strong wind and torrential rain agitated Ding Xiao's small physique still couldn't resist the arrogant weather, and he caught a glorious cold.
Kun felt distressed and blamed himself, but in this way, he lost the desire to hang out. "Go back quickly."
After sneezing, I felt a little dizzy in my head, and I was depressed about why I was so weak, so I caught a cold even after being drenched in the rain.But now he really misses the big kang at home. "Yeah. But I still have to find a place to warm up. There are mountains over there. I don't know if there are any caves."
The cave exists, and from the entrance, the area inside is quite large.
As soon as Ding Xiao entered the cave, he shivered again.It's like falling into the ice cellar!But suddenly remembering that he was wearing a big pair of pants now, his face darkened slightly. "Hurry up and live at the entrance of the cave. It's true to dry your clothes. Fortunately, there is nothing else to be afraid of watering."
Kun hurriedly put all the branches and firewood he picked up along the way at the entrance of the cave, and the flint with water was not very useful. At this time, the lighter that had been hidden all the time came in handy.Ding Xiao was very emotional after seeing it. Although it is a cheap product, this thing is really good, and it did not lose the chain at the critical moment.
Now that he patrolled around the cave, Kun left the cave to hunt with confidence.There were some snakes and bugs in the hole, but no other danger.The snake repellent is not afraid of water, as long as the medicine is wrapped in the snake, it will not come close, let alone the bugs.
Ding Xiao didn't care about that much, what he wants to do most now is to take a hot bath, but warming up to the fire is also very important, especially clothes and animal skin blankets, these things are not as waterproof as tents. "Really, after I go back, I have to ask my father to help me make raincoats made of leather that is not afraid of water. I have to think about umbrellas too." Yikun and his father's manual skills, this job shouldn't be a big problem, right?The wooden carts have already been made, so simple umbrellas shouldn't be a big problem, right?
Placing the clothes and the animal skin blanket on the stone on one side, Ding Xiao added firewood to it from time to time, while taking out the things in the basket and himself to check.
Since the seasonings are all packed in bamboo tubes, there is no problem.The chili seedlings are also okay and still very straight.There was an animal skin sheath on the dagger, and he had inserted it into his boot, so the blade didn't really get wet.The other small problems are not big, but when checking the watch, Ding Xiao frowned.
He is well aware that the watch is waterproof.So there will never be such a thing as being out of order after being drenched in the rain.Then why did the compass start to "shudder" again?Walking around with the watch around, it was really weird, as if it was the same as when I first found out that there was a problem with the compass.The light trembles, that is, there is no meaning of turning.Is it broken again?Intermittent or?
Wait, assuming the compass is not broken, does that mean there is something in the hole? ! !
