Chapter 314 313. No rush
The wasps were still outside, trying in vain to attack the eldest and second cubs, while Huaiyu and Zhou Qian leaned against the car window, watching the chicken stew pot gradually drain away, despair in their eyes.
But soon, the eldest and second cubs couldn't eat anymore.
Yes, they have mutated and their physiques are very strong, but no matter how strong they are, they still have a limit to their stomachs. Now they eat one by one, and their necks are stretched out to get cervical spondylosis, but the swarms of wasps are still endless...
Tired.
I can't eat this protein buffet anymore.
The two goslings swallowed the last bite, clacking their feet back and forth, and stood under the car, looking up at Huaiyu who was looking at them through the car door.
"……ah!"
…
"What are they talking about?" Zhou Qian also came over and asked.
Huaiyu thought for a moment and translated, "Probably, Mom, I'm sleepy, it's time to go to bed."
After all, the eldest and second cubs’ weakness is that they can’t fly, and the carriage is at a certain height, so they can’t go back by themselves.
Zhou Qian: …
The fire gradually went out, and the soup in the pot was almost dry. A pot of rich chicken soup was now reduced to dry stew. Zhou Qian was silent for a long time and still did not open the car door.
Because along with the big cub and the second cub came, the wasps also followed! The fluttering sounds continued, but although the modified car window could not withstand two hits from the gray magpie's mouth, it still had a certain resistance to this group of wasps.
Now they hit one after another, fell down in a daze and then flew up again. After several rounds of tossing and turning, the hornets finally stopped, and the buzzing sound gradually dissipated.
Until all around was silent, only Huaiyu and the two cubs, the elder and the younger, were left staring at each other under the car window.
After a long while, she asked, "Did the wasp leave?"
Zhou Qian listened quietly for a while and said, "He should have left."
The two men then tentatively opened the car door and stood there for a while. Sure enough, no hornet came over.
The eldest and second cubs were still staring at them innocently, then they turned their butts and went into the bushes to poop.
Huaiyu didn't bother to carry them back to the carriage. He quickly leaned over to the fire and put new firewood in it. Then he looked into the pot.
Thankfully, there was enough water so it didn't become mushy.
But the potatoes inside had become a soft lump, and a gentle stir of a spoon turned them into thick mashed potatoes.
Look at the purslane and the shepherd's purse and wild boar shredded soup in the basin beside...
Well, since it’s like this, don’t be picky, just eat it.
Zhou Qian put the two geese, who had just solved their life's problems, back into the carriage, and couldn't help but gently tap their sea urchin-like goose feathers:
"It really resembles its owner."
He is really good at holding others back.
But he forgot that the goose's feathers would only stick to its body when facing Huai Yu. Now, when he pricked it lightly, beads of blood instantly stood trembling on the tips of the goose's feathers.
Zhou Qian: …
Okay, okay, just like the owner, nothing can be said, right? But turning around and looking at Huai Yu, who was busy preparing the dishes by the fire and looking at him happily, Zhou Qian couldn't help but be happy and asked loudly: "Can you still eat?"
"Of course!" Huaiyu said firmly, "Even if the potatoes are all mashed, can we not cook tonight?"
It was used to make soup before, and the seasoning was light, so it’s just right to be used as a staple food now.
Zhou Qian was naturally good at eating. After all, he even coveted wasps. At this moment, he just sighed:
"Eat, and rest early after you finish. I'll quietly go over there to take a look."
How did the eldest and second cubs make the wasps and them so hostile?
The wasp nest was so high, the temperature dropped, and it was dark. They couldn't catch the lone wasps outside and eat a few of them, leaving a few to report the news, right?
He was puzzled.
…
Although there was a small episode in the middle, I have to say that the chicken stewed with mashed potatoes is still delicious. The purslane is fried with sauce and is spicy and goes well with rice, and it is especially good with the light mashed potatoes.
The wild vegetable and shredded pork porridge on the side was also salty and delicious. The two of them had been busy all day and were now tired and hungry, so they soon focused on eating.
Huaiyu also showed him a few eggs that she had collected today: "We'll have this for tomorrow morning! Boiled eggs with a side of chicken soup and mashed potatoes, just enough to finish it off."
Then he suggested, "Brother Zhou Qian, it's too conspicuous to go to the woods with a lantern at night. Why don't you just stop looking? We can talk about it tomorrow morning."
Zhou Qian thought about it and finally agreed.
…
This day was truly soul-stirring and physically exhausting.
After a quick wash after dinner, the two found their respective positions and fell asleep.
Before going to sleep, Zhou Qian couldn't help thinking: For some reason, this trip to the wilderness doesn't feel like a wilderness at all.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
It was obvious that when he participated in exploration operations as a member of the defense force in the past, he was on guard and patrol at night and moved forward cautiously during the day. Even in an area that had already been explored, he would not let his guard down like that.
Now he came to the wilderness alone with Huaiyu, but instead of being alert, he dared to sleep soundly at night...
The thought did not continue here because he soon fell into a deep sleep.
The night wind of late autumn brought the breath of the wilderness, with waves of rich sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance. The surroundings fell into silence, and even the chirping of insects and birds gradually disappeared.
Huaiyu had a feast of osmanthus in his dream.
Osmanthus honey wine, osmanthus sugar lotus root, osmanthus coix seed soup... even the tea is osmanthus black tea, so she was satisfied but also a little choked: "No more, no more..."
It was too sweet, really too sweet. Even though the sweetness of each dish was not high, it was still sweet. She wanted to eat the stir-fried purslane and the salty and delicious wild vegetable pork paste tonight...
"Xiaoyu! Xiaoyu!"
Someone was pushing her.
Huai Yu opened his eyes in confusion and saw that Zhou Qian had already packed up: "I'm going to take a look in the woods, you close the car door and don't come out."
Huaiyu rubbed his eyes and quickly sat up: "Come together, I know exactly where it is. And the hornet's nest is on a big osmanthus tree. If we really want to fight, I can ask the osmanthus tree."
I don't know if the osmanthus tree will pay attention to her, but what if? That hornet's nest is so big, it would be difficult for Zhou Qian to face it alone!
Zhou Qian paused and said, "Okay."
Then he instructed:
"Then don't lock your car door and just follow me. If anything seems wrong, get in the car immediately. I've asked the eldest and second sons to wait around the car. They should be able to stop it for you."
Huaiyu nodded, then grabbed the hem of his clothes and rubbed it against his face, then suddenly came to his senses:
"Let's go!"
Zhou Qian: …
After a while he said, "Actually there's no rush in the morning, you can wash up first, and then we'll go over."
Huaiyu: ...
Why didn’t you say it earlier!
Update one.
