There is an ax made of stone in the space, but it is too heavy to be lifted slowly. She can only take out a small and sharp bone knife, intending to slowly grind the bamboo off.
She stroked the bamboo gently, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I will try to be as gentle as possible so that you don't hurt too much."
Bamboo made a low whimpering sound, as if crying.
Slowly, my heart is actually quite uncomfortable.
These bamboos were raised by her own hands, and they are somewhat emotional. Now that they hear their cries, they are a little bit reluctant to let go.
Xingchen also looked at her eagerly from the side: "Can you stop cutting them?"
He sighed slowly: "If we don't chop bamboo, we won't be able to make bamboo rafts."
"What do you want the bamboo raft for?"
Slowly, he said his plan to paddle the bamboo raft to the sea to see.
Stardust said: "This is a dead sea, there is nothing in the sea, even if you have a bamboo raft, you can't find anything."
"But we can't just stay on the island and do nothing."
Stardust tilted his head and blinked his amber eyes: "It's not like we didn't do nothing, we planted so many bamboos, look how beautiful they grow!"
As if to echo what he said, the bamboos uttered low chants one after another, like a bard singing, fluttering in the night on the sea.
Stardust pleaded: "It's really not easy for them to grow up in such a harsh environment, just let them go."
The singing of the bamboos became more and more melodious and sad, and I almost cried when I heard it slowly.
She put down the bone knife helplessly: "Okay, okay, I admit defeat."
Xingchen immediately burst into a pure smile: "It's kind of you slowly!"
The bamboos also shake their bamboo leaves and make cheerful sounds.
Slowly put away the bone knife: "According to my age, you should call me elder sister."
But Xingchen said: "I like to call you by your name, your name sounds very nice."
Slowly, he was so praised that he couldn't refuse.
The bamboo has not been cut down, and the bamboo shoots will soon grow, and they will be dug out slowly, and then eaten with baked potatoes after frying.
It was the first time Xingchen ate bamboo shoots, and he liked the sweet and crisp taste so much that he couldn't resist eating an extra potato.
You must know that the potatoes slowly brought out are all mutated varieties, three to four times larger than ordinary potatoes, and slowly you can usually only eat half of one, but Xingchen can eat two in one meal, his appetite is astonishing.
Slowly collected the fallen bamboo leaves, piled them into a small bed, and spread a layer of animal skin blankets on top.
She felt very soft when she lay down, and she could smell the fresh fragrance of bamboo leaves, which felt great!
Xingchen was lying beside her, he turned sideways, looking at the profile of Slow without blinking.
He suddenly said, "You are really good."
Slowly received the third good card.
She asked casually, "what do you think is good about me?"
"Not only did you save me, but you also planted bamboo here and gave me a lot of delicious food. You are the best person I have ever seen!"
When Xingchen said this, his eyes were extremely sincere, like a cute little angel.
Slowly patted his head, and helped him to press down the raised hair: "After we leave here, we can eat more good things."
Xingchen was slightly startled: "Can we still leave?"
Slowly and firmly said: "Of course! We can't give up hope!"
Stardust lowered his eyelashes and stopped talking.
After Xuan fell asleep, he quietly moved to her side, carefully touched her arm, and said softly.
"Don't leave here, okay..."
…
Life on the isolated island was really boring, so I slowly exchanged some potato seeds and peanut seeds, and started a new round of planting.
Stardust was very interested in this and helped her take care of those potatoes and peanuts.
He is very keen on planting plants on this small island.
Potatoes are resistant to cold and drought and grow very well. In contrast, peanuts did not grow so well. Many seedlings died. In the end, only a dozen peanut seedlings survived.
Under their transformation, the bare island was gradually covered by green plants, full of vitality.
Slowly take out the talc, and draw the scenery of the island on the slate.
Xingchen came over and asked curiously, "You know how to draw?"
Huan Huan said with some embarrassment: "I'm not very good at drawing."
"No, you draw beautifully." Xingchen looked at the painting on the slate without blinking, and praised from the bottom of his heart.
Slowly was very happy to be praised: "I want to give it to my children."
Xingchen was slightly taken aback: "You already have a child?"
"That's right," Huan Huan said while drawing, "I already have four children, they can't transform into human form yet, they should be a little younger than Bibi. After we leave here, I'll take you to live with me for a while , you should be able to make a good playmate with my children."
Xingchen couldn't help asking: "Do you have to go back? Isn't it good to stay here?"
"Of course it's not good. There's nothing here, just the two of us. I have to go back to my family. They miss me very much, and I miss them too."
Xingchen lowered his eyes and thought silently in his heart, isn't it enough just the two of us? !
Slowly the painted slate was stuffed back into the space.
Not long after, she received a reply letter from Shuangyun.
This guy actually drew a picture on the slate, which showed three male beasts and four cubs, namely Baidi Shuangyun Sangye and the big boy, the second boy and the third boy.
There are four paw prints in the shape of plum blossoms next to the picture, and you can see that they are the paw prints of four children.
This painting was very immature and rough, but Huan Huan couldn't put it down and looked at it over and over again.
Xingchen sat beside her with his legs crossed, looking at her eagerly, like a puppy who was left out in the cold.
Slowly looking up and seeing him like this, my heart softened, and I couldn't help asking.
"Do you want to learn to draw?"
Stardust nodded immediately: "Yeah!"
Slowly let him sit over, picked up a clean and flat slate, drew lines on it with talc, and told him how to master the key points and techniques of painting.
Like a model student, Xingchen pricked up his ears and listened extremely carefully.
After finishing the speech, he slowly handed the slate and soapstone to him: "You can try it yourself."
Stardust took over the slate and talc.
This was his first time drawing, and he looked nervously at Huan Huan.
Slowly buffer him with a slight smile to show encouragement.
Xingchen settled down for a moment, held the talc tightly, and began to draw carefully.
Slowly to avoid distracting him, after he started painting, he quietly walked away and went to dig three big potatoes in the field.
When she came back, Stardust had already drawn it.
Slowly looking at the portrait of the woman on the stone slab, he couldn't help being stunned.
"You drew this..."
Stardust clenched the talc in his hand and whispered, "It's you."
