Chapter 144 River Velvet Beast
Wu Jiong said that Jiujiu hid something, so it was probably not wrong.
Jian Mo put his hand on the door handle: "What did Jiujiu hide?"
Wu Jiong: "I'm not sure, it might be a toy or something, anyway, it's not in the right state."
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and Jian Mo thought there was no need to torture the baby in this weather, so he said: "Forget it, let's wait until the weather is better and see. Come on, come on, hurry into the house."
As he said that, Jian Mo hugged Wu Jiong from behind and pushed him into the house.
As soon as the door was closed, the cold wind was blocked outside, and the house seemed particularly quiet.
Wu Jiong reached out, held Jian Mo's hand with his backhand, turned around and kissed him.
In this windy weather, the two had plenty of time to do something else.
Kissing, the two went upstairs.
It was not until several hours later that Wu Jiong came down to fetch water for the two of them to bathe.
Since the house was renovated and the bathroom and toilet were moved into the room, life has become much more convenient.
In such windy weather, having a warm and solid house can make people feel safe and happy from the bottom of their hearts.
Jian Mo changed into a soft new pajamas, rubbed against Wu Jiong, listened to the whistling wind outside, and soon fell into a deep sleep with a peaceful expression.
After waking up, Jian Mo went to see how Jiujiu was doing.
Thinking of Wu Jiong saying that Jiujiu had hidden something, Jian Mo looked at Jiujiu more.
Jiujiu met Jian Mo's gaze and flapped its wings happily: "Chirp!"
Halfway through flapping its wings, it seemed to remember something, and quickly folded its wings, no longer moving, looking even more suspicious.
Jian Mo wanted to see what it had hidden under its body, but Jiujiu's body was rather large and its hair was long, so he couldn't see clearly.
He glanced several times, but only saw Jiujiu's big butt.
Ying Ao lay in the den, looking at Jian Mo calmly, and it didn't look like he was going to complain.
Jian Mo couldn't get any clues from it, so he had to go back first.
Wu Jiong was in the kitchen, and when he saw Jian Mo come in, he asked, "What are we having for breakfast today?"
Jian Mo: "The weather is bad, let's have something delicious, how about bird meat with pepper core and fried crispy meat?"
Bird meat with pepper core is fried like spicy chicken, first and then stir-fried. It just so happened that the bird meat needed to be fried, so the crispy meat was fried as well with the oil in the pot.
Wu Jiong: "I'll help you."
Jian Mo specially cooked some extra meat, left some for them to eat, and then carried it in a large bowl to feed Ying Ao and Jiu Jiu.
The weather was bad, and everyone didn't have enough food. Jian Mo specially prepared dry grass and pearl algae for Jiu Jiu and Ying Ao. The large bowl of meat was just a snack for them.
Despite this, Jiu Jiu and Ying Ao were quite excited when they saw the fried crispy meat, and they flapped their wings several times in a row.
Fried food is a delicate food that is a rare delicacy for both humans and winged beasts.
Jian Mo divided the meat among them and walked back.
Halfway through the walk, Jian Mo suddenly remembered and hid by the wall, intending to see what Jiu Jiu had hidden.
He hid in the corner of the wall and looked at Jiu Jiu quietly.
Ying Ao turned his head, glanced at the corner of the wall, and shrank back into the den.
Jiujiu was unaware of anything, took two pieces of crispy meat, ate them happily with squinting eyes, raised his head and chirped twice.
Then, it turned around and took out a little animal from the den, and brought it to the rice bowl filled with dry grass and pearl algae.
Jian Mo didn't expect Jiujiu to have hidden a beast in the den, and his eyes widened.
The beast's body shape is a bit like a rabbit, but it has round ears, round eyes, and a round nose, and looks chubby.
Jian Mo looked at it for several times and recognized that this beast is called "River Velvet Beast".
This kind of beast lives in colder places, and is rarely seen in the Riverside Tribe. It is basically a specialty of the Bingjiang Tribe, and even in the Bingjiang Tribe, it is rare.
The meat of the river velvet beast is tender and plump. When cut open, it has snowflake-like patterns. It has a small skeleton and tastes delicious. It has no odor or smell. It is considered a very delicious beast.
However, this kind of delicious beast is quite rare. Even in this era, river velvet beasts are rare beasts. If you are not lucky, you can't see it at all.
Jian Mo has only eaten it twice, but he was deeply impressed by this delicious beast meat.
Jiujiu is lucky.
Jian Mo stared at the river velvet beast.
The river velvet beast was holding the pearl algae with its two front paws and eating it carefully. Jiujiu looked at its appearance, lowered its head and licked it, and then dragged the big rice bowl in front of the river velvet beast.
The timid river velvet beast was licked so much that its short round tail trembled.
Jiujiu looked at it and licked it again.
Jian Mo took this discovery back to Wu Jiong and told him about it in disbelief: "I didn't expect Jiujiu to have a river velvet beast! Jiujiu is also a male beast, so it won't be aroused to have maternal instincts, right?"
Wu Jiong: "Now is not the breeding season for flying beasts, it shouldn't happen."
Jian Mo: "Could it be that Jiujiu has a pet?"
As a pet doctor, Jian Mo knows that some pets will also keep pets.
Some kittens and puppies will regard smaller creatures as their pets, and even become sad and depressed because of the death of their pets.
Jiujiu -
Well, it's not impossible for Jiujiu to keep a pet.
Jiujiu's IQ should be higher than that of dogs, and he might imitate others in raising things.
However, Jian Mo always felt that something was wrong.
Jian Mo: "What should we do now? Pretend that we don't know and prepare more food for it?"
Wu Jiong: "This is the only way. We can't just take the river velvet beast and throw it away."
Jian Mo thought about it and agreed: "If we do that, I'm afraid Jiujiu will just run away from home."
The pups that played with Jiujiu had run away from home before, and Jiujiu might really learn from them.
Wu Jiong: "Let's pretend we don't know. Maybe one day he will get bored of playing."
Jian Mo's eyes were full of surprise: "A pet's pet, it feels like life is really strange."
Seeing that Jiujiu was able to take care of the river velvet beast, Jian Mo didn't care.
The wind was strong today, even stronger than yesterday.
Jian Mo put on a thick fur robe and pushed Wu Jiong out.
They went to check on the crops planted in the fields first.
The wooden wall blocked most of the wind, and the crops were in good condition, with almost no lodging.
After the wind blew away, the yield of this crop should not be reduced.
Wu Jiong took Jian Mo on a tour of the tribe.
Thanks to their recent renovations, the houses in the tribe were all fine, and no one's house was damaged by the wind.
When they were near Qing Kuang's house, Qing Kuang heard the noise and came out to see: "It's you, come in for tea and chat."
Jian Mo pulled Wu Jiong in: "You have such a leisurely life."
Qing Kuang: "Otherwise there's nothing else to do. It's windy, and I might get hurt if I go out. Come on, let's eat roasted sac fruit."
Sac fruit is a bit like persimmon, it's astringent when raw, but the astringency will be reduced when ripe, and the whole fruit will become soft and juicy. You can eat the sac inside by tearing the skin.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong sat down by the fire, each took a roasted sac fruit, and slowly peeled and ate it while chatting.
The roasted sac fruit is sweet and soft, with a creamy texture.
Jian Mo liked it very much.
When the kitten Banju saw Jian Mo, he put his paws on his knees, wanting to get into his arms.
But the kitten had grown to be as big as a Samoyed, so there was no way for him to sit in his arms without blocking Jian Mo's sight.
Banju turned around twice, then sat down regretfully, tucking his big furry tail under his butt, looking very particular.
Jian Mo touched Banjiu's head: "When can Banjiu transform?"
Qingkuo: "It should be this autumn. The cubs can suddenly transform one day, and I can't tell when it is."
Jian Mo stroked Banjiu's chin: "Our Banjiu will definitely look very good after transforming." Banjiu rubbed
Jian Mo's hand with his cheek and said happily: "Meow!"
After chatting for a while, Jian Mo and Wu Jiong went home.
Jiujiu and Yingao were still in the nest, and the long-tailed bird and the Tutu beast were also in the animal shed.
Jian Mo worried for a long time. The long-tailed bird didn't lay eggs. Could it be because their taming skills were not good enough? Unexpectedly,
the wind blew, and the long-tailed bird laid eggs instead, and laid two eggs. I wonder when the other one was born?
He picked up the eggs impatiently, put them in his pocket, and ran into the house to show Wu Jiong.
Wu Jiong touched the still warm eggs: "Just laid?"
Jian Mo: "I think so. The other one might have been laid yesterday or the day before yesterday, when we weren't noticing. Quick, make a fire. I want to see if these two eggs can hatch into baby birds?"
Wu Jiong was puzzled: "Make a fire to hatch? Won't they be cooked?"
Jian Mo: "No, I want to see if these two eggs are fertilized. If they are fertilized, you can see a dark dot inside under the firelight. Aren't those two long-tailed birds a male and a female? Logically speaking, the probability of fertilization should be higher."
Wu Jiong started a fire.
Jian Mo brought it close to the stove, looked at it carefully, and pointed excitedly: "These two eggs have small black spots, right?"
Wu Jiong looked at it carefully: "Yes."
Jian Mo: "Then let's put the eggs back and see if the long-tailed birds can hatch them? If they can hatch eggs on their own, we will have an endless supply of long-tailed bird eggs to eat in the future."
Eggs are an important resource. You can also get bird eggs outside, but it is definitely more convenient to raise laying birds at home.
Especially in winter, when you can't get bird eggs outside, your own birds will lay eggs every day, and life will be happier.
The long-tailed birds laid eggs, and Jian Mo was in a good mood, humming a song.
Jiujiu and Yingao could also feel that he was in a good mood, and they became lively.
The wind had been blowing for several days. During these days, everyone stayed at home and could not do anything.
Finally, the wind stopped, and the whole tribe immediately took action. Those who needed to go out to hunt went out to hunt, and those who needed to go out to gather went out to gather.
Jian Mo also planned to go out with Wu Jiong.
They had been eating meat and dried vegetables these days, so it was time to go out to gather some fresh vegetables.
After the wind stopped, the temperature dropped a lot, as if autumn had arrived. They should also go out to hunt and gather more to prepare supplies for the winter.
Theoretically, there is no need to rush, but if you prepare early, you don't have to rush later.
Jian Mo and Wu Jiong were going out, and Ying Ao and Jiu Jiu were also going out.
Ying Ao was the most anxious, and he went out early in the morning. He was not there when Jian Mo went to feed him.
Jiujiu stayed in the den, looking a little guilty and sneaky.
Jian Mo already knew that it was hiding the river sparrow, so he turned a blind eye to its behavior and did not pursue it.
Unexpectedly, when Jian Mo and Wu Jiong were about to go out, they saw Jiujiu running from the den to the animal shed on the other side of the house, sticking to the animal shed. What was it doing?
In one animal shed was a timid oxbill, and in the other animal shed was a long-tailed bird incubating eggs.
No matter which animal shed had its animals disturbed and something happened, it would be a big loss for them.
Jian Mo called out to Jiujiu: "Jiujiu, what are you doing?"
Jiujiu froze for a moment: "Hmm."
Jian Mo walked over and asked suspiciously: "Why are you here for no reason?"
As he spoke, Jian Mo had already reached Jiujiu and saw the river velvet beast in its mouth.
Jian Mo understood immediately that Jiujiu also wanted to go out, so he wanted to send the pet to the animal shed and lock it up.
Jiujiu saw that the matter was exposed, and his body stiffened. The river velvet beast in his mouth was not held firmly and accidentally fell off.
The river velvet beast was round and fat, like a ball, and it bounced on the ground when it fell.
Then, the river velvet beast turned around dizzy and wanted to run.
Jiujiu moved even faster, and skillfully slapped the river velvet beast with its claws, causing it to roll its eyes: "Jiu."
It didn't look like the attitude he would use towards a pet.
Before Jian Mo could figure it out, Jiujiu skillfully picked up the river velvet beast and stuffed it into Jian Mo's arms: "Jiujiu!"
This action was exactly the same as when he stuffed prey into his arms before.
Jian Mo understood immediately and muttered: "River velvet beasts are not pets, they are food."
Jiujiu looked at Jian Mo with big eyes: "Jiujiu!"
The tone was very sure.
He said, how could Jiujiu, who is greedy, raise a pet?
