An Tingyu sighed secretly and thought to herself: This is the terrible thing about having no cultural education.
These villagers are very simple and straightforward. They don't like to beat around the bush, so it's not surprising that they can't figure it out.
"Girl, from now on we will do as you say, so that we can have meat to eat." The old lady said happily.
An Tingyu smiled slightly. "Auntie, although the method I just mentioned is good, it is also dangerous. After all, the prey needs to be unloaded before it can be carried on the back, which means it is very large. What if the prey is still alive? Wouldn't it be dangerous to go down? So tomorrow I will teach you how to make a special trap that can not only ensure your safety, but also allow you to easily take out the prey."
"Is there really such a trap?" The village chief's eyes lit up.
"Well, let's talk about this tomorrow. Let's eat first... No, let's eat meat first!"
…
Early the next morning, the villagers gathered in front of the old lady's house, waiting for An Tingyu to teach them how to make traps. Looking at the villagers who had reported early, An Tingyu smiled slightly, and then handed them the diagram she had drawn long ago, "This is the diagram I drew last night. There are two ways to set a trap. One is to use the principle of a tunnel and open a trap door. After the prey falls into the trap, you can add another knife through the trap door..."
"Do you want to chop it with a knife?" asked a villager.
Hearing this, An Tingyu's face turned embarrassed. "...No, didn't I tell you that this is too dangerous? When I say finishing it off, I mean this. Look at this picture. There are small holes on the trap door. You can use a sharp object to insert it through the small holes until the prey is dead. Then you can open the trap door and lift the prey out."
The village chief nodded. "So that's how it is. What about the other two?"
"The second method is this. Actually, I prefer you to use the second method. As long as there is a big tree on the trap, add a thick rope, tie a slipknot on one end of the thick rope, and find a way to get the prey to step into the slipknot. Then you can easily pull the prey out. Of course, you probably can't climb that big tree. If you have decided to use the second method, I will let Dang Yan hang the rope on the big tree first, and you just need to set the trap below the rope."
An Tingyu spread out the second picture in front of everyone. As soon as this picture came out, the village chief immediately agreed because this picture looked simpler. So after breakfast, Dang Yan was sent to do hard labor.
"Yu'er, drink some water first!" Jing Aotian brought her a bowl of boiled water.
An Tingyu glanced at him, and smiled slightly, without refusing. However, after drinking the water, An Tingyu suddenly looked sleepy, "You...you are in the water..."
Before she could finish, An Tingyu fainted.
Jing Aotian stretched out his hand and stroked her delicate little face. "Yu'er, I'm sorry! But this is the only thing I can do. But don't worry, I will definitely find the antidote for the poisonous agarwood. Just wait here for me to come back!"
"This won't do!" An Tingyu, who had fainted, suddenly said.
? ?
Jing Aotian was stunned. A silver needle had already pierced into one of his acupuncture points while he was stunned. "You... didn't you faint? How did you..."
He had clearly seen her drink the water and faint in front of him, so why was he the one being restrained now? Didn't she drink the water?
Jing Aotian guessed, and he soon got the answer.
"If I couldn't guess what was in your mind, I would of course drink it. But I'm sorry, I didn't swallow it. When I pretended to faint, I vomited on my clothes. Aotian, thank you for your kindness, but I don't want you to take risks. Wait for me to come back!" After saying that, An Tingyu had already opened the dilapidated wooden door and walked out of the thatched hut.
"Yu'er, don't go. I beg you, don't go alone. You will die. Yu'er, don't go..." Jing Aotian shouted at her, but An Tingyu didn't look back. Jing Aotian just watched her leave...
