Yu Qingqing really couldn't bear to see her father staying up all night alone for such a long time.
Besides, I do have some skills, so how can I feel at ease being a small fry?
"Okay, go to sleep! I'll guard the back and call you later."
Yu Qingshu felt that what his daughter said made sense. Basically, there would not be much danger after midnight.
"Okay, I'll go rest first." Yu Qingqing quickly climbed up a shorter branch, closed her eyes and rested.
"Well, go to sleep!" After Yu Qingshu finished speaking, he found a more comfortable place to sit down and added some more firewood.
The fire burned brightly and quickly, and the whole night passed in silence. When Yu Qingqing woke up in the middle of the night, he took over shifts with Yu Qingshu.
It was already daybreak, and the two of them cleaned up. They heated up the chicken from last night and then cleaned the bones after finishing it.
I buried it in the hole I dug last night, covered it tightly with soil, and continued walking inside.
Strands of sunlight shone into the forest from outside. Because the forest was dense, the trees grew lushly.
Only a little bit of sunlight could penetrate, and only round circles of light could be seen on the ground.
It felt like a beam of light shining on the ground. There were many fallen leaves on the ground, and they were quite thick. The soil here was obviously more fertile than outside.
It is July now, the time when mushrooms grow. Generally, mushrooms only grow in dense forests like this.
"Dad, I tell you that now is the time when mushrooms grow. You should also look carefully to see if there are any mushrooms. Maybe you can find some."
Yu Qingqing tried hard to open her eyes wide and began to look for mushrooms carefully.
"Okay, Qing'er, be careful too, don't stray too far from daddy." Yu Qingshu also began to look around.
"Hey, there seems to be a white thing over there, let me go take a look." Just as Yu Qingshu was about to look away, he saw a small, snow-white thing.
"I know this mushroom is edible, Qing'er, come here quickly," Yu Qingshu shouted at Yu Qingqing.
"Really? Where is it? Let me see!" Yu Qingqing took two steps at a time and ran over. She was so moved that she almost cried. This turned out to be her favorite mushroom.
It is called "Chicken Mushroom". Whether it is cooked into soup or fried, it is really unforgettable. It is so delicious.
Moreover, the "chicken mushrooms" grow in clusters. There seem to be more than twenty of them in this patch. If it were in her time, she would probably have made a small fortune. I wonder if the ancient people here liked to eat them.
However, even if someone wants to buy it, Yu Qingqing is reluctant to sell it, after all, delicious food is hard to come by.
Yu Qingqing carefully dug out a "chicken mushroom" that had just opened its umbrella, and it was as big as her palm.
Yu Qingshu also started digging mushrooms carefully. He found a wooden stick and started digging.
"Qing'er, here's this mushroom for you. Please keep it well. If you can't finish it, you can dry it and it can be kept for a long time."
After Yu Qingshu dug up the last "chicken mushroom", he handed the fruits of his labor to his daughter.
"Okay, Dad! I..." Before Yu Qingqing finished speaking, Yu Qingshu made a "hush" gesture. Yu Qingshu picked up the backpack, pointed his hand behind him, and slowly backed away.
After seeing this, Yu Qingqing also stepped back, but she began to feel nervous.
"Hum! Hum! Hum!" Yu Qingqing and Yu Qingshu had just retreated a distance when they heard a few "hum" sounds. Yu Qingshu immediately put an arrow on his bow, aimed at the place where the sound came from, and shot it out without hesitation.
I saw two wild boars, one big and one small, running out from the bushes in front after the arrow was shot. The big one was estimated to weigh more than 300 kilograms, and the small one was estimated to weigh more than 100 kilograms.
Yu Qingqing was so excited. It turned out to be a wild boar. If they could catch all of them, this trip wouldn't be in vain. But there were only two of us, Dad and I, and we couldn't take any of them for such a long journey.
Yu Qingqing began to feel distressed. "Pa", Yu Qingqing slapped her head. Why was she so confused? She was a person with space, so wouldn't it be fine if she just let go of the space?
He did it right away. When Yu Qingqing was concentrating on drawing his bow and shooting arrows, Yu Qingqing went around behind the wild boar.
Yu Qingshu naturally didn't notice his good daughter, because the two wild boars were frightened by the arrow just now and were now scattered everywhere.
Yu Qingshu planned to hunt the smaller one, which would be easier to bring back and less difficult.
He was always careful to keep a safe distance from the big one. Yu Qingqing finally jumped from one tree to another, and the big wild boar happened to be under that tree.
Yu Qingqing didn't know if she could capture the wild boar from a distance, but she still concentrated and silently prayed in her heart. Perhaps because the distance was relatively close, she actually captured the wild boar.
The wild boar changed the scene and became more impatient, running around everywhere. However, probably because of the limited space, the wild boar could only stay in place, which also made Yu Qingqing less worried.
"Qing'er, why are you in that tree over there?" Yu Qingshu finally shot five or six arrows before killing the little wild boar, and then he thought of his daughter.
When he turned around, he found his daughter in the tree and there was no trace of the wild boar.
"Dad, when I saw you busy dealing with the little wild boar just now, I was a little scared and climbed up the tree. Then I threw stones at the big wild boar, and it was actually scared away by my daughter."
Yu Qingqing made up stories without blushing or getting nervous.
"Okay, you should hide when you encounter danger. I was just hunting and didn't notice you. I'm sorry."
Yu Qingshu still felt a little guilty that he hadn't noticed his daughter just now. If something really happened, no matter how much he regretted it, it would be useless.
"Dad, it looks fine to you. We need to go back as soon as possible. The wild boar's blood will easily attract other wild animals. Let's pick up some wood, tie it with vines, put the wild boar on it and drag it back."
Yu Qingqing began to pull the vines next to her, and tried to change the subject in order to prevent her father from continuing to blame himself.
"Okay, let's use the vines. My daughter is smart and she wants to get out quickly. It's still dangerous in here. The food we found can keep our family going for a while."
Yu Qingshu also started to act, and soon he finished it. Then he carried the basket on his back. Fortunately, the herbs were not heavy.
Yu Qingqing was happily holding the "chicken mushroom" in her hand, and the father and daughter were eager to go home.
"I don't know how your father and Qing'er are doing. They should come back regardless of whether they have prey or not."
Hua Qinglu was standing at the door, with Yu Qingmei embroidering a handkerchief next to her.
"Mom, don't worry! Daddy and Third Sister will be fine."
Yu Qingmei also looked towards the door and said comfortingly.
"Mom! Second sister! Come quickly, Dad and third sister are back! What a big wild boar!"
