I have been feeling sad since the beginning of spring, and I am so sad about the flowers that I hate them.
A pair of swallows fly by, murmuring and complaining that my curtains cannot be hooked.
Seeing Zhu Pingan turned his head away helplessly and said something like "be careful on slippery roads" after being glared at by her, Li Shu couldn't help but pout her red lips and said "idiot" in her heart. Bai Bai, a girl, was kissed on the lips by you and she didn't even say a word.
Indeed, the valley floor was even more slippery than the valley slopes.
Although the stream is shallow, the rocks throughout the stream are covered with moss, making them slippery when you step on them.
"Be careful." After stepping over the stone, Zhu Ping'an turned around and said to Li Shu who was following closely behind him.
"Watch out for your head," Li Shu said silently in her heart.
The stream is shallow and runs along the valley floor. The stream at the edge flows along the gravel at the bottom of the valley, and the water cannot be scooped up. If you want to drink water, you can only walk two steps forward. There is a large rock there, not very high, only less than ten centimeters above the surface of the stream. You can step on it and scoop up the clear stream water with your hands to drink.
In ancient times, there was no pollution and the stream water was crystal clear. Zhu Ping'an had no worries. He stepped on the stone, bent down, scooped up a handful of stream water with both hands, put it to his mouth, and took a big sip. The stream water was sweet and made his lips salivate. It tasted much better than some modern mineral water.
Li Shu was much more particular than Zhu Ping'an. She first washed her delicate hands, then cleaned the handkerchief she was carrying, and carefully wiped her oval face.
After Zhu Ping'an drank the stream water, he glanced at Li Shu beside him and was stunned for a moment.
This is the difference between the two, both survived the disaster and drank water by the stream:
I am probably the one who is ragged, vulgar, and drinks like a cow; but Li Shu is dignified and noble, exquisite and elegant, pure and tender, like a lotus emerging from water, untainted by dust.
In ancient times, people paid attention to the matching of family backgrounds, which was not without reason. People from different family backgrounds had different living habits, which was like a chasm. If there was no unforgettable love, how could life be as sweet as honey
In ancient times, people could not fall in love freely like they do today, so there was no way to give rise to deep and lasting love.
"Zhu Ping'an, is there a flower on my face?"
A voice as sweet as a lark brought Zhu Ping'an back from his reverie.
"Uh" Zhu Pingan was a little speechless.
"Uh what do you mean. You lecher!" Li Shu glared at him, pouting her lips and saying angrily, her expression full of contempt.
"Hehe, the master is mesmerized by the young lady's beauty, hehe." The chubby little maid covered her mouth and looked at Zhu Ping'an and giggled, her big eyes narrowed into crescent shapes.
"What are you talking about, girl? You are becoming more and more unruly. Just wait and see how I will deal with you." Li Shu said coquettishly, a blush appeared on her pretty face, and then she stretched out her slender jade hand to tickle the teddy little maid.
For a moment, the girls' laughter echoed throughout the quiet valley.
Looking at Li Shu and the little maid Baozi playing together, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips. It seems that girls' playfulness is quite interesting.
After replenishing their water, the three survivors regained a lot of energy.
The situation is much better now than before, at least there is no shortage of fresh water, and there are many fish swimming in the stream. It is now late spring and early summer, and there should be many wild fruits and vegetables in the dense woods. If you are lucky, you may also find wild rabbits. If you look carefully, there will probably be no shortage of food.
At least, now we have enough food and drink and can survive.
Of course, we also need a place to stay. I don’t know how long I will stay here, and I don’t know when a ship will pass by here.
Well, you should choose a place close to the sea. At least you can see the sea in time. If there is a ship approaching, you should be able to remind the other party in time that there are people here, and you can't miss the opportunity to ask for help. Of course, you still have to distinguish and guard against pirates.
Zhu Ping'an looked at the hazy sunlight in the sky. The sun was almost at its zenith, and it was about noon.
Let’s solve the lunch problem first and then think about the accommodation issue.
Before Zhu Ping'an could say anything, the little maidservant over there had already rolled up her sleeves, lay on a rock and started to catch the fish that were wagging their tails in the stream.
This girl must be starving.
There are mostly small fish in the stream. Most of them are small fish with slender bodies, about the thickness of a thumb, not very long, but there are a lot of them, with black backs, and they swim very fast.
The stream was very shallow, only about seven or eight centimeters deep, and one could touch the bottom of the stream with one's hand. The little maid Baozi was lying on the rock, catching small fish excitedly, as if she had seen a pot of delicious fish soup.
Seeing how excited the little maid Baozi was, Li Shu also joined in.
The two of them were having a great time playing catch and the atmosphere was lively.
"There's one here, it's huge."
"Oh, it ran away. It's quite a big one."
"Look, there's a colorful one, it must be delicious when used to make fish soup"
"There's another one."
There were many small fish, but they swam very fast. As soon as they put their hands down, the small fish had already swam half a meter away. They tried for a long time but didn't catch any.
Zhu Pingan knew this kind of fish in the stream. There were many in the river in front of Xiahe Village and in the streams on the mountain. They were like this, long strips. The villagers called them wheat ears. Whether they were fried fish or stewed fish soup, they tasted delicious. Seeing the two girls chattering for a long time without catching a single fish, Zhu Pingan couldn't help but smile and demonstrated to them.
"There is a technique to catching fish. Put one hand in front of the fish's head and the other hand behind the body. It's easier to catch it this way, like this."
As Zhu Ping'an spoke, he caught a small fish the size of a palm and demonstrated it to the two of them.
"My son-in-law is so awesome." When the little maid Baozi saw the fish in Zhu Ping'an's hand, she shouted excitedly.
Zhu Pingan placed the caught fish in a small natural pool of water behind him and blocked the gap with stones to form a natural basin.
"Yeah, Miss is quite amazing."
Zhu Ping'an had just put down the fish when he heard the little maid Baozi shouting excitedly again. Then he saw Li Shu walking towards him with a fish swung its tail in her hands, her eyes shining.
“Bigger than yours”
After Li Shu put the fish down, she looked at the two fish in the water, compared them, and then said something proudly.
After about ten minutes, the three of them caught more than ten small fish, all of which were as long as a palm. Zhu Pingan caught the most, followed by Li Shu. The little maid Baozi only caught one, but this was enough to make her excited.
Once the fish is caught, there is a problem.
There is no fire
You can't eat raw fish. (To be continued.)
