"Xiao Ling, it's dangerous!" Liu Zhimo's eyes widened involuntarily and he shouted sharply. At this moment, he felt that his heart was about to stop.
A moment of life and death...
Li Qingling nimbly threw himself to the side, rolled on the spot, and avoided Xiong Xiazi's fierce throw.
She didn't give Xiong Xiazi a chance to counterattack, she pulled out a bunch of arrows one by one, and with all her strength, she inserted the arrows into Xiong Xiazi's vitals.
Xiong Xiazi struggled twice, but finally fell down.
Li Qingling sat on the ground and gasped for air, her hands were shaking.
If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would have been wiped out by Xiong Xiazi.
It's really too dangerous.
Liu Zhimo ran over, pulled Li Qingling up, looked her up and down, and asked where she was hurt
Just now, his heart was about to stop, which really scared him.
Li Qingling wiped Xiong Xiazi's blood on her face and smiled at Liu Zhimo, saying she was fine and told him not to worry.
His hands were shaking even more than hers. It seemed that the scene just now really frightened him.
Seeing that she was really fine, Liu Zhimo breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't be so reckless next time, you know?" If something happened to her, how could he be sorry for his aunt
"Understood." Li Qingling nodded obediently. The danger this time made her more aware that in the deep mountains and wild mountains, if she was not careful, she would die in minutes.
She glanced at the tiger that died next to it. When the tiger died, its eyes were wide open, and it looked at a direction with nostalgia. It seemed that there was something it couldn't let go of.
As soon as her heart moved, she raised her foot and walked in that direction. As soon as she walked there, she saw a young tiger cub in the grass.
It should be the smell emitted by the tiger when it gave birth, which greeted Xiong Xiazi.
In order to protect the cubs, the tigress can only do her best to protect her cubs.
Li Qingling was instantly moved by the tigress, she gently picked up the cub which was sniffing around and sniffing around.
"Little tiger?" Liu Zhimo came over and saw it, and blinked in surprise, "How do you want to arrange this little tiger?" Judging by her appearance, she will not hurt the little tiger who lost his mother at such a young age.
He did understand her.
Li Qingling sighed worriedly, "If this little tiger is left alone, he may not live until tomorrow." Letting her just watch this little tiger die, she can't do it, but if she takes it home , another trouble.
She... is very tangled!
Frowning and thinking for a while, Liu Zhimo helped Li Qingling make a decision, suggesting that she take the little tiger back and raise it in his house, and then release it back to the forest when the little tiger grows up.
He knew that she meant this, but he just had some worries in his heart, so he was struggling.
Hearing his suggestion, Li Qingling nodded, carefully carried the cub in front of the tigress, and said to the tigress, "Don't worry, I will take good care of it until it can be independent."
After saying that, she reached out and closed the tiger's open eyes.
For some reason, she felt uncomfortable.
Liu Zhimo gently rubbed her head, comforting her silently.
Taking a deep breath, Li Qingling suppressed the pain in her heart. She put the cub beside the tigress and let the cub nurse.
She then went to cut off the soles of Xiong Xiazi's feet. These four bear paws are quite valuable, and it is estimated that they can be sold for a good price.
"Brother Zhi Mo, dig a hole here and bury Xiong Xiazi and the tiger in it." Li Qingling started digging the hole while talking.
She was moved by the tigress' maternal love for her cubs, and she didn't want to sell it for money, so let it rest in peace!
Liu Zhimo responded, put down the basket, and went to help Li Qingling dig a hole.
The two dug a deep pit, put Xiong Xiazi and the tigress down, covered them with soil, and after finishing all of these, they left with a basket on their backs.
"Let's get out of here as soon as possible." Li Qingling speeded up, "I won't spend the night in the cave tonight, I'll go back to the outskirts of the mountain to spend the night, I'm afraid that the bloody smell that can't be concealed will attract other beasts."
If the wolves were attracted, the two of them would be miserable.
For her own safety, she chose to go back and spend the night outside the mountain.
Hearing this, Liu Zhimo's face became more serious, and he nodded silently.
After returning to the cave in two years, I put the earthen pots and other things in the back basket, and then went out.
The quilts and reed mats were left in the cave. Anyway, they would come next time, so they must spend the night here, so there was no need to take those things away.
Hurry up, and it took one and a half hours in two years to return to the outskirts of the mountain. Once back, Li Qingling sat down on the small hillside where she spent the night before. In such a hurry, she had some Tired, let alone Liu Zhimo.
She was sitting next to him and could hear his heavy breathing.
"Are you tired?" His forehead was covered with sweat, and his face was flushed with heat.
Liu Zhimo licked his chapped lips and nodded.
This time, he was in a hurry. He was indeed exhausted, but on the way, he didn't dare to let her stop and take a rest. He knew that once he stopped, he wouldn't be able to get up, so he might as well take a breath Come here and take a good rest.
Seeing that his lips were dry and peeling, Li Qingling quickly stood up, took the earthen pot, went to the stream to fill the water, and put the spirit water down before boiling it.
The firewood I picked up last time is still there, so I don't need her to pick it up anymore, I can start the fire directly.
"There will be water to drink later, just bear with it." Li Qingling lit the fire, sat beside him and said.
After she came here, Li Qingfeng was not allowed to drink cold water directly, and had to boil the water before drinking.
"Thank you..." Liu Zhimo swallowed hard, and thanked her softly.
Li Qingling waved his hand, telling him not to be so polite.
In a quarter of an hour, the water boiled. She lifted the lid and let the water cool down before offering it to him to drink.
I don't know if he is too thirsty or what, but he thinks the water is very sweet.
"This stream is so sweet." Liu Zhimo quenched his thirst, put the crock pot back into Li Qingling's hand, and said with a smile, "Can you try it?"
Of course she knew what was going on, but she couldn't put it into words.
Li Qingling took a few sips from the earthen pot, nodded, and said that maybe we were too thirsty, that's why we thought the water in the stream was very sweet.
Liu Zhimo thought about it, maybe, he didn't feel this way when he drank last time.
Seeing that he didn't talk about this topic anymore, Li Qingling took a deep breath, reached out and hugged the little tiger out, and drank some water for it.
The little tiger was really thirsty, so he sucked her finger and kept on sucking it. Seeing this, she poured some more for it to drink.
After it stopped drinking, she put it back in the basket, and she went to cook something to eat.
She and Liu Zhimo hadn't eaten for almost a day, and they were all playing tricks when they were hungry.
"Brother Zhimo, do you want stewed chicken or roast chicken?" Li Qingling took out a pheasant and asked Liu Zhimo with a smile.
"It's all right, I can eat whatever you want, I don't choose."
"..." is this kind of answer, which makes people find it difficult to choose.
Li Qingling thought for a while, and decided to roast the chicken. The roasted pheasant is delicious.
She took the pheasant to the stream to deal with it, and asked Liu Zhimo to pick some wild vegetables and cook them.
After eating pheasant, eat some wild vegetables so that you won't feel greasy.
The two worked together, and the first meal of the day was ready.
The little tiger probably also smelled the aroma of roast chicken, and kept whining and chirping in the back basket.
Li Qingling laughed, took it out of the basket, and put it in her arms. Seeing that it was too small, she didn't dare to feed it barbecue, so she had to secretly feed it some spiritual water to satisfy its hunger.
It seemed to know that spirit water was a good thing, and it sucked up all the spirit water she had for the day before letting go of her finger.
"Ghost spirit..." She nodded the little tiger's forehead and said with a smile.
Seeing the interaction between her and the little tiger, Liu Zhimo also laughed, "It is close to you." Probably because he knew that Li Qingling was its savior.
"Well, everyone loves me, and flowers bloom when I see them." She said with a smile, and she was not ashamed to praise herself like this.
"..." If you really give her a little sunshine, she will be brilliant, and if you give her a little color, she will really open up her face.
Liu Zhimo shook his head helplessly, took two bites of the grilled chicken leg, and felt that Li Qingling's cooking skills were getting better and better, and the grilled chicken was even more delicious than last time.
"Is it delicious?" Seeing how fast he ate, Li Qingling asked him with a smile, this roast chicken was also added with spiritual water, and with the ingredients she brought, it must be better than the last time.
Hearing this, he nodded repeatedly, stretched out his hand to tear off another piece of meat, and stuffed it into his mouth, "It's delicious." To be honest, it was the first time he had eaten such a delicious chicken since he was a child. It was so delicious, He wished he could swallow his tongue.
Li Qingling raised her eyebrows proudly, "This time I added ingredients, it will be more fragrant when baked." If it doesn't taste good, then she can't help it.
The two of them managed a pheasant in twos and twos, and after eating the wild vegetables, they both breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of life is called life!
"Brother Zhi Mo, spend the night here tonight, leave the mountain early tomorrow morning, go to the town to sell prey, and then go home." Bear paws cannot be stored for too long, as they will become stale, and the price will be reduced by half.
"Okay..." Liu Zhimo nodded.
The two spent the night on the small hillside, and went to the town early the next morning to sell their prey. This time, they got a total of forty-three taels of silver, one bear paw was twelve taels, four were sold for forty taels, plus other The prey, forty-three taels will be in hand.
Having won so much money, Li Qingling and Liu Zhimo laughed so happily that they couldn't see their teeth.
The two rushed home excitedly, but unexpectedly, as soon as they returned to the village, the villagers would shout when they saw them.
"Xiao Ling, where have you been? Everyone is looking for you, something happened to your mother, it's about to die, go home and have a look!"
