"Let's go take a look."
“You’re scared, but the roe deer is even more scared. It must have run away long ago. Nobody’s afraid of roe deer.”
Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief and led the three men into the ridge.
The first obstacle was intact, indicating that the person didn't trip over it, and the same goes for the second one.
The third rope wasn't tied properly to begin with. It did trip over the animal, but the roe deer's legs hooked it and dragged it a long way into the ridge.
When the group reached the end of the rope, the roe deer, of course, didn't see them, only a pile of excrement it had dropped in fright.
Miao Qingsong felt it was a pity; he wished he hadn't acted recklessly.
His guts were ripped out.
The tree canopy overhead was tall and dense, and the chirping of birds echoed from above it.
We ate bird eggs that day. Although they were small, they were still a good thing.
Lin Mo planned to take the pheasant, which had been knocked unconscious, home and put it down, and then try a different way of fishing to catch a few more fish to eat.
In addition to making wooden tools, Su carpenters can also weave bamboo baskets.
Find a carpenter named Su to weave a few narrow bamboo baskets, put the bait in the baskets, and then throw the baskets into the river.
The black spiky, attracted by the smell of blood, would crawl into the bamboo basket on its own, waiting for the right opportunity to pull the basket up by tugging on the rope.
Although this method only allows you to scoop up fish one at a time, it is still a clever way to do it.
"It's too much of a waste to go straight home after traveling so far," Lin Mo suggested.
"Let's collect some bird eggs to take back."
"good!"
The three responded to the suggestion without hesitation.
The ridge is mostly covered with eucalyptus trees, and the deeper you go into the ridge, the fewer people you see, and the more ancient eucalyptus trees you find.
It's quite common for them to shoot up more than 20 meters into the sky.
For young people, climbing trees is a basic skill; they can easily climb up any tree, no matter how tall.
But eucalyptus oil wouldn't work, because the tree is too thick to easily support.
However, the probability of finding a bird's nest is highest in the canopy of this eucalyptus tree.
Because the tree canopy is densely packed with branches, providing good concealment, there are at least a dozen branches that can support bird nests.
On the way back, wherever Lin Mo pointed, the three Miao brothers climbed.
You can almost always spot a bird's nest made of piled-up dead branches by climbing up.
However, there are not many eggs in the nest, usually only three or five, and they are small.
Miao Qingsong thought to himself, if each of us didn't manage to collect a hundred bird eggs on this trip, then we would have lost out.
"oops."
Miao Qingsong, who was hanging on the tree, suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Mo looked up and saw a patch of white on Miao Qingsong's face, and two black pheasants, about the size of domestic hens, were flapping their wings angrily above Miao Qingsong's head.
"Haha, we've been retaliated against," Lin Mo laughed.
"Get down quickly, or I'll make sure you're covered in poop."
Miao Qingsong was being pounced on by the two pheasants, so he had no choice but to let go of their bird eggs and slowly carry them down the tree.
The main reason is to prevent them from falling.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a muffled thud was heard.
Lin Mo was startled, thinking that Miao Qingsong had slipped and fallen, but when he looked up, Miao Qingsong was still hanging on the tree perfectly fine.
Turning my head, I saw that the tree canopy that Ah Jun was standing on had broken off, and he had fallen straight down from it.
Ah Jun suddenly felt a void behind him, followed by a violent jolt in his body.
When I landed on my back, my head was spinning, as if my brain had been smashed into a puddle of mush.
Seeing him lying there motionless, the three of them were terrified.
"Ah Jun? Say something?"
"Speak up!"
Startled, Miao Qingsong quickly slid down the tree and rushed over, grabbing A-Jun's upper body and shaking him violently.
Ah Jun was already feeling dizzy, and this shaking made him even more dizzy.
He struggled to raise his hand, pushing away Miao Qingsong's large face that was pressing against his own, and weakly cursed:
"Stop shaking me. I'll shake you to death before I fall to my death."
Hearing that he could still speak, the three of them hurriedly carried him on their backs and walked out of the ridge.
He ran back to the Wang family in a flash.
Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang are busy drying wheat in the production team, their hearts and eyes full of hopeful anticipation.
I'm looking forward to lunchtime soon, when the team will have fish cakes again.
I hope my son will bring rabbits home, so we can secretly keep a few rabbits at home.
Just as he was feeling elated, he suddenly heard that his son had fallen from a tree.
The two elders were so frightened that they dropped their rakes and ran home, followed by a bunch of Wang family relatives.
"Son!!"
Uncle Wang ran home with his legs weak, muttering to himself, "God, I only have one son, he can't be hurt."
Wang Junjun, who was carried home, was no longer so dizzy. Fortunately, he had only climbed a little over a meter up the tree and landed on his bottom first.
If it were any higher, and it landed headfirst, then it would be truly over.
"Dad, I'm fine, just a little dizzy. I'll feel better after lying down for a while." Wang Junjun didn't want his parents to worry, so he forced a smile and reassured them.
Hearing that their son could still speak fluently, Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the two elders didn't want to argue, but Wang Junjun's aunt had already been eyeing Miao Qingsong, Miao Wang, and Lin Mo with her eyes darting around.
In particular, she noticed that Lin Mo was holding two pheasants in his hand.
"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright. You scared your parents to death." Uncle Wang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"What do you mean 'nothing'? A fall could be a serious or minor injury!"
Suddenly, Wang Junjun's aunt, Wang Yanli, put her hands on her hips and started yelling, glaring at Lin Mo and shouting sharply:
