It's not that he's greedy, it's just his body's natural reaction. He hasn't had a normal meal in several days.
Tu Sen tied the bandage himself, and then he and Song Yun dealt with the big bird together.
While roasting the bird, Song Yun took out a few green-shelled bird eggs from her pocket, wrapped the shells in mud and threw them into the fire to roast.
The two big birds were soon roasted until their skin was golden brown and juicy, and both of them couldn't help swallowing their saliva.
Even without any seasoning, the two aromas were so delicious that I had a satisfying meal. I didn't eat the roasted bird eggs, but saved them for when I was hungry in the evening.
When they set out again, Tu Sen not only felt his injured leg much better, but his well-fed body was also full of strength, and his speed increased a lot in the afternoon.
After seven days of sailing, they finally saw open water.
Song Yun guessed that this should be Lanjiang River.
According to the distance they have traveled, they should have entered Country L. If they can catch a boat here, they will probably be able to return to China within two or three days.
The two followed the Lancang River eastward, and after passing through a banana grove, they discovered a village.
The people in the village seemed to rarely see outsiders coming here and were very curious about them. Almost the entire village came to watch them.
No matter how they gestured, they could not communicate clearly with the villagers. Finally, Song Yun took out a pen and paper from her bag and drew simple sketches on the paper to express her meaning.
The villagers finally understood what was going on. It turned out that the two outsiders wanted to take the villagers' boat back to China.
The village chief immediately shook his head and said no.
The villagers also shook their heads and said no.
The village chief seemed to be afraid that they would misunderstand him, so he expressed himself with a lot of gestures, and Song Yun actually understood a few of what he said.
"You mean, the Lan River is so dangerous that even you can't get out and can only fish around here?"
Song Yun drew out what she said in simple strokes. The village chief looked at it and nodded quickly, giving Song Yun a thumbs up.
Song Yun and Tu Sen looked at each other. It seemed that if they wanted to go back by water, they had to find out the situation here first.
So Song Yun expressed that she and her companions wanted to stay here and she was willing to pay for it.
The reward she mentioned was a secret herbal recipe that could repel mosquitoes in the dense forest.
In fact, people who have lived here for generations all know some herbal remedies for mosquito repellent. It is not difficult for them to survive here, but their prescriptions are obviously not as effective as Song Yun's. After personally testing the efficacy of the medicine, the village chief was so excited that he waved his hand and personally took Song Yun and Tu Sen to live in his house.
The village chief's house is much better than the houses of other residents, but to Song Yun and Tu Sen, it is just a big shed that is slightly bigger than a small shed.
There's nothing we can do, this is the condition here.
The village chief cleared out two empty places in his shed for them to rest. They just laid out beds on the ground covered with some unknown hay. Although the conditions were not harsh, they were much better than sleeping against trees in the dense forest where they had been sleeping these days.
Although the villagers looked kind and honest, the two of them did not completely let their guard down and did not dare to sleep too deeply.
Fortunately, nothing happened that night, and the mental state of both of them was much better than before.
Just as the village chief called them out for breakfast, a burst of crying suddenly came from the village.
The village chief's face changed, he quickly put down the clay pot, turned around and ran out.
