Chapter 151: Scheming Squirrel
I originally thought that the squirrel would not come back after being frightened by Heidan.
But I didn't expect it to be so brave.
When Song Wei was digging out the dense roots of wild ginseng and was dizzy, it came back again.
Heidan was looking at it from under the tree, and it was staring at Heidan from above the tree.
The man and the squirrel stared at each other for a long time.
Heidan put his hands on his hips and was frowning as he asked the squirrel what it wanted to do when the squirrel suddenly moved.
It jumped nimbly along the branches to another tree, then turned back and squeaked at Heidan.
Heidan didn't understand what it meant.
When he saw the squirrel jumping back and forth several times and turning back to call at him, he vaguely understood something.
"Sister Song, that squirrel seems to want us to follow it."
Song Wei, who was squatting on the ground with dull eyes, looked at the squirrel with an unhappy expression.
She has been digging here for two hours.
I feel my whole body is numb.
The most important thing is that there is still a little bit left.
Oh my God, she no longer had any excitement about seeing this wild ginseng. Who could have thought that the ginseng whiskers were so many and so long.
She would rather fight with tigers and wild boars!
After drinking a sip of water, Heidan ran over with peeled nuts and fed her with his little hands.
"Sister Song, why don't you just give up the roots and tear them off."
He also wanted to help, but Sister Song didn't let him.
Song Wei gritted her teeth and said, "No, I've been digging for so long, and the remaining bits can't be broken no matter what. Otherwise, why did she waste so much time before?"
“Squeak!”
The squirrel jumped up and down in the tree and squeaked to attract the attention of the two people.
Song Wei glanced at it and grabbed two handfuls of roasted nuts and put them under the tree.
There are also a few large walnuts with their shells cracked open. You only need to break them open easily to reveal the fragrant walnut flesh inside.
After she finished, she rolled up her sleeves and continued working.
The squirrel watched from the tree for a long time, this time being much more alert than last time.
But in the end, he couldn't resist his foodie instinct and came down from the tree.
It quickly stuffed a few walnuts into its cheeks, then ran up the tree holding a big walnut, not daring to stop.
Heidan saw this and started groaning.
"Who's going to catch you? My clothes are so precious."
The squirrel had its back to them, leaving only its big fluffy tail sticking up. At this moment, it was holding a walnut with its two paws and prying it open with its teeth.
Because there was a crack, it was easy to pry open. After eating some of the crispy walnut meat inside, his little eyes lit up instantly.
It also strengthened its determination.
"Great, we finally dug it out..."
Looking at the perfectly-quality wild ginseng that she had just dug out in her hand, Song Wei almost cried with joy.
It was not easy, much harder than killing wild boars or pheasants! It was hard for a person with such great strength to do such delicate work.
Heidan was still young and didn't know the importance of this wild ginseng.
Song Wei didn't know much about how to distinguish wild ginseng, but he knew that this wild ginseng was probably quite old.
There are so many lines on the head of the wild ginseng that resemble tree rings that Song Wei couldn't even count them at first glance. Some of them are so dense that they are almost growing together.
The stem of wild ginseng is not very big, and the main body looks like a little man without facial features.
There are two tiny 'hands' next to the body that is not even as big as Heidan's palm, and two thin legs overlapped together, but the ginseng tendrils growing under the legs are very lush and long.
Song Wei carefully put it in a small bag and placed it close to her body inside her clothes.
This thing can't be dropped.
“Squeak~”
When Song Wei stood up and stretched, the squirrel started jumping on the tree and calling again.
"What does it want to do?"
Heidan shook his head: "I don't know, it seems like he wants to take us somewhere."
He described the squirrel's actions to Song Wei and looked at her with his bright black eyes.
"Sister Song, this squirrel is so smart."
Song Wei touched his chin and said, "It's a bit too smart."
"Come and take a look. I've been lying there for so long that I feel like my body is getting rusty. It's a good time to take a walk."
She moved her arms and heard a cracking sound from the joints at her shoulders.
The squirrel led the way in front, looking back at Song Wei and the others from time to time, and only continued to move forward after making sure that they had caught up.
Finally, they came to a place where the squirrel jumped to the ground and pointed at the place under his feet and squeaked.
Song Wei raised his eyebrows and walked over with Heidan.
The squirrel ran away again.
"Dig it up and see."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
She wanted to see what the squirrel was up to.
The two men started digging, one with an axe and the other with a branch.
Then a hole was discovered.
And when you take a look inside the hole, you will see all kinds of nuts.
Song Wei: …………
Heidan: Wow!!!
Little Black Egg opened his eyes wide: "Sister Song, there are so many nuts."
Song Wei stared at the squirrel. What did it mean? Heidan exclaimed and looked at the squirrel in disbelief: "Did it give us its own food?"
Song Weiwei narrowed his eyes: "I don't think it's that stupid."
This squirrel is very cunning.
But no matter what, once they dig it up, it’s theirs.
So the two of them started picking up nuts from the hole in the ground.
This granary is quite exquisite. There is a layer of pine needles piled under the hole, and the nuts inside look quite clean.
“Squeak~”
The little squirrel ran over and jumped up and down to express something. He picked out the nuts from his cheeks and pointed at the food nest with anticipation in his eyes.
Song Wei vaguely understood what it meant.
"You mean to exchange this food nest for my roasted nuts?"
“Squeak~”
Song Wei took out some of the nuts he had brought with him, about two handfuls.
Because she had roasted a lot of nuts before, she carried a lot of them in her pocket every day.
"squeak!"
The little squirrel jumped over happily and started to carry the roasted nuts happily.
When Song Wei was halfway through picking up the things, they heard a sharp squeak.
Heidan and Song Wei looked over at the same time and saw another squirrel running towards them with its big tail swinging.
This brown squirrel looks a little bigger than the previous one, and its color is a little easier to distinguish.
The one that brought them here was more reddish in color.
At this moment, the owner of the granary was looking at the two of them with an extremely angry look in his eyes and expression.
Suddenly, the squirrel saw the squirrel that had already carried the nuts around Song Wei and the others and came back to stuff nuts into its cheeks. It became even angrier and rushed up to fight without saying a word.
Two squirrels were fighting. They chased each other from the top of the tree to the bottom of the tree, and then they hugged each other and fought with each other.
Song Wei, the culprit who robbed the granary, not only did not feel the shame of being caught on the spot, but instead watched the show with great interest.
Heidan seemed to understand something after seeing this situation, and he opened his mouth slightly.
"So... that squirrel brought us here to rob other squirrels' granaries."
What a scheming little squirrel!
What kind of hatred and grudge is this?
