"Okay, okay, how are we going to help the squirrels deal with their food reserves?"
When the little kid heard Zhou Yu’s suggestion, he immediately became interested.
However, Chengyang and Li Lizhi next to them looked a little strange.
Will squirrels feel sad because they have too much food stored?
Obviously not.
Put yourself in the squirrel's shoes. If it were a human, it would probably want to store as much food as possible.
Therefore, the young man's proposal is obviously misleading.
Of course, understanding is one thing, and doing it is another.
The young man is a trustworthy person.
Since he said he wanted to help the squirrels clean up their stored food, it probably wouldn't affect the squirrels' survival.
In that case, it's natural to nod in agreement to such an interesting thing.
So, after a few people got together, they took their tools, locked the car, and headed towards the woods.
As soon as they entered the woods, they heard the squeaking of little squirrels.
Looking up following the sound, you can easily see the furry little figures in the trees.
"Wow~ Xiao Nianjun, there are so many little squirrels here~"
When the little kid saw this, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Even Chengyang and Li Lizhi couldn't hide their joy on their faces.
However, they are a little older and know that talking loudly may scare the little squirrel, so they have been very restrained.
Zhou Yu naturally saw all the reactions of the two little princesses.
What they didn't know was that this wild hazelnut forest was not remote.
The squirrels that live here often encounter people who go into the mountains to hunt and pick wild hazelnuts.
In particular, some children would occasionally bring some snacks to feed the squirrels when they went into the mountains.
Because of this, although the squirrels here are not very close to humans, they are definitely not afraid of humans.
In just a short while, several brave squirrels had secretly climbed down from the tree.
Next to several big trees, you can see little squirrels tilting their heads and looking around curiously.
Of course, even though these little guys are full of curiosity, they still can't stop their greedy nature.
In just a short while, the little squirrels had picked up several hazelnuts from the ground.
Seeing them stuffing the hazelnuts into their mouths one by one, the little princess, who was originally excited, was stunned on the spot.
"Hehe, how come the little squirrel's face looks so amazing?"
The little guy looked incredulous.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but puff out his cheeks.
Seeing the little girl so cute, Zhou Yu smiled slightly at first, and then smiled and explained: "The little squirrel's face skin is just like the pockets of clothes, it is naturally elastic enough~"
“How magical~”
“So this is what it looks like~”
“Squirrels are really cute.”
…
After listening to Zhou Yu’s explanation, the little princesses suddenly understood and couldn’t help but praise him.
As for Zhou Yu, he stood where he was, squinting his eyes and looking up at the tree.
Seeing Zhou Yu remained silent, the little girl couldn't help but hug his thigh and asked, "Little Nianjun, what are you looking at?"
"I'm looking for the little squirrel's granary!"
Zhou Yu did not lower his head, but answered with his head still tilted up.
"Did you find it?"
"Hey~ Hey~ Found it~"
Zhou Yu said this and strode towards a short tree not far away.
While the little princesses were puzzled, he simply picked up the axe he brought and chopped down the dead tree with all his might.
Seeing this, the little princesses were stunned and stood there.
Didn’t we agree to clean the granary for the little squirrel?
Why is the young man chopping trees with an axe?
Could it be that the little squirrel’s granary is inside this dead tree?
Snap!
The little princesses’ doubts didn’t last long.
The dead and rotten tree could not withstand Zhou Yu's full force in chopping it.
After a few blows from the axe, before anyone could react, there was a crashing sound from the dead tree being chopped off.
Immediately afterwards, a large pile of things rolled out from the hole in the short tree.
Looking closely, I saw that what was scattered on the ground were pine nuts and hazelnuts.
"Hehe~ Not bad, not bad, this color, this quality, all of them are good~"
Zhou Yu bent down and walked forward, picked up a few pills and put them in his hand.
Then, he started to praise with a chuckle.
Little princesses: ...
What's going on?
That dead tree is actually the little squirrel’s granary?
But how did the young man find out?
Could it be that the little squirrel told him?
The little princesses were still stunned until Zhou Yu took out the snakeskin bag with excitement.
Zhou Yu excitedly picked up the hazelnuts and pine nuts scattered on the ground, and smiled as he explained to the little princesses:
"Squirrels love to stockpile food, and when hazelnuts ripen in autumn, they will find ways to collect and store them."
"If there is sufficient food, a squirrel can even store hundreds of kilograms of nuts before winter."
"Because squirrels are so small, they can't eat that many nuts, so they forget about them."
"Most of the time, these forgotten nuts are stolen by other small animals."
"Without human intervention, a small population of squirrels can even support several other animal populations."
"You might think that I took out so many hazelnuts and pine nuts that they might affect the survival of the little squirrels."
