Before the water boiled for blanching the bamboo shoots, Xu Ning had already prepared the cold wild vegetables. The blanched bamboo shoots were finally scooped out and rinsed with cold water, then put back into the pot and poured with boiling hot oil. The aroma of the cold wild vegetables immediately rose to a higher level.
Xu Ning couldn't help but try it first. It was so delicious that his eyebrows relaxed.
Then Xu Ning started to stir-fry bacon slices and chili peppers. The chili peppers were a bit pungent, and thick smoke rose in front of the cave entrance. The ewe stopped eating the bamboo shoots and stayed away.
Xu Ning also coughed a few times due to choking. When he saw that it was almost done, he poured in the bamboo shoots that had been rinsed with cold water, stir-fried them evenly, sprinkled them with seasonings, put them on a plate, and brought them into the cave.
Xu Ning also moved the bamboo shoots that the ewe had not finished eating into the cave. While Xu Ning was moving the fire, the ewe saw that the air outside the cave was not so choking anymore, so she slowly followed Xu Ning into the cave.
Xu Ning placed the brewed honeysuckle tea on the stone next to the fire to warm it up. After making sure that everything outside the cave had been moved in, she decisively closed and locked the door and sat down to enjoy her dinner.
The ewe also lay on the side and continued to eat its bamboo shoots. Crunch, crunch, the two sounds seemed to be coordinated and echoed in the small cave.
After eating and drinking, Xu Ning threw all the pots, pans, and other things back into the space, cleaned them briefly, and took out a small tent to lie down in.
The ewe's nest was also taken out and placed next to Xu Ning's.
There was no other way. The cave was too small. After putting down the tent and the sheepfold, all that was left was the fire in front.
Xu Ning turned over and sat in front of the tent, facing the fire, stretched out his hand and yawned. The ewe also lay in the nest and wagged its tail.
The howling of wolves gradually sounded outside the cave, and soon green eyes passed by the cave one after another.
Xu Ning took out his earplugs, took a calm look, and then crawled into his sleeping bag and fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, wild wolves began to bang on the door. Xu Ning turned over and continued to sleep. The ewe stuck her head out and saw that the wolves were unable to break through the door and were wandering around it, refusing to leave.
Seeing this, the ewe stood up slowly, walked around the door where the wolf could not reach, and then slowly returned to the den.
The wolves outside the door went crazy, howling and digging outside the cave all night long, and finally left in a panic after dawn.
