Chapter 229 Black Toothpaste
Chu Qiao bit the kapok flower in his mouth and waited silently for the night to fall.
A gentle breeze blew by, and Chu Qiao felt a chill all over his body. He felt as if bugs were running around in his body without any order, yet it was excruciatingly uncomfortable.
Before she knew what it was, Chu Qiao could still see the pain on her face. Now that she was sure it was a sunflower, Chu Qiao calmed down instead. She sat upright on the ground, her body straight, her brows sometimes slightly wrinkled, and sometimes the corners of her mouth twitched.
Chu Qiao's fingers trembled slightly, trying to grab something, but he could only pinch the flesh on the inside of his thigh.
Among various addictions, smell addiction is the easiest to quit because it only excites the brain and the concentration is not high.
However, addiction to the fruit or even its extracts can make people unable to distinguish between day and night, reality and illusion, and lose control of themselves.
At night, Xiao Diao guarded Chu Qiao, who sat cross-legged like a Bodhisattva.
If it weren't for Chu Qiao's micro-expressions, Xiao Diao would have found it hard to tell that she was fighting against her own desires.
Nothing seemed to happen that night, but Chu Qiao knew that the critical moment had come. She stuffed her nose with kapok flowers to prevent the fragrance from continuing to stimulate her central nervous system.
About two hours later, Xiao Diao pawed at Chu Qiao and nodded at her.
Chu Qiao, who was feeling a little short of oxygen, removed the kapok flowers from his nose and patted his aching head.
Chu Qiao got up early in the morning, ate some cassava, and opened the live broadcast room.
Chu Qiao's face was pale, his lips were bloodless, the hair on his forehead was still there, and a few strands of hair were stuck to his forehead.
After a night of fighting, Chu Qiao now looked weak.
Netizens couldn't help but worry when they saw it:
[Master Chu, what's wrong? ]
【Is it due to the influence of yesterday's happy flowers? 】
【Is Happy Flower so powerful?】
Chu Qiao nodded. "I've only smelled the scent of the Happy Flower for a few days, and it took a lot of willpower to control myself. If an ordinary person inhaled it, it's hard to imagine what would happen to them in the end."
After Chu Qiao finished speaking, he pulled off a piece of willow leaf from the lakeside.
He looked at the next section and slowly rubbed a 5-centimeter-long willow branch to slowly separate the bark and the white branches inside, and finally took out the white part.
Chu Qiao did not throw away the white branch, but smashed it flat with a stone.
The flattened end turns into many thin fibers.
Chu Qiao pulled out a few pieces of burnt charcoal from the fire and smashed them into powder with a stone. Before netizens could react, she had already smeared the charcoal on her teeth.
In an instant, Chu Qiao's teeth and lips turned black.
[Master Chu, are you crazy? ]
[No, no, no? Master Chu must have gone crazy from quitting the scent of happy flowers yesterday.]
Disgusting, black teeth.
Stop ruining my teeth.
Chu Qiao bared his big black teeth and laughed, "Do you think I'm really not going to brush my teeth in the wilderness without toothpaste and toothbrush?"
"Of course not. You still need to maintain oral hygiene in the wild, especially when you're out there for a long time. If food residues are not removed in time, the health of your teeth and gums will be threatened."
As he spoke, Chu Qiao picked up the branch, put it into his mouth, and rubbed it back and forth on his teeth.
Chu Qiao said as he brushed his teeth: "I use willow or pine branches to make toothbrushes. There are more fibers in them, so I can bite the fibers out with my teeth or beat them out with stones."
"Then we use charcoal as toothpaste because it has a certain adsorption capacity and the powder is relatively fine, which can rub away dirt and food residues on the surface of the teeth."
[Master Chu, this is pure natural, authentic Black Man toothpaste.]
What does charcoal smell like?
[As a man, I can objectively tell you that it's not necessary. I don't brush my teeth for ten days at home either.]
[Oh my god, is the guy upstairs serious?]
[We're already out in the wild, why bother brushing my teeth? I'm going to fend for myself.]
Chu Qiao smiled and rinsed his mouth with water, baring his teeth in front of the camera.
Sure enough, the teeth became much brighter, and the lips soaked in water also had a bit of red color.
Chu Qiao patted Xiao Diao's head. Xiao Diao, who had been guarding Chu Qiao all night, was now listless, with his eyelids squinting. Chu Qiao felt very distressed: "Don't worry, I will definitely make up for it today."
Chu Qiao said as he picked up the willow bark he had just peeled off. The tubular bark looked very fragile and would break easily if torn.
Chu Qiao carefully placed it between her lips and tried to blow a few times. Sure enough, it made a sound. She tried to adjust it again. The sound was no longer sharp, but a "chirp-chirp" sound.
Chu Qiao finally spoke, "Every morning when I wake up in the tree house, I can hear the crowing of roosters all around me, but I can't find any of them. I've looked for them several times but haven't found any."
"The whistle I'm making now is mainly used to attract pheasants."
“Making a whistle is easy, but adjusting the sound to attract pheasants is the key.”
"The sound of the whistle just now sounds very similar to that of a rooster to us humans. Usually, a rooster will make this sound after finding food to call the hens to come and eat."
Chu Qiao kept trying, adjusting the intensity of his voice.
Suddenly she and Xiaodiaoer moved and stood up.
I could only hear the sound of faint footsteps coming from the grass not far away.
The drone flew into the air first, and a chicken with a long tail appeared in the light curtain. This chicken looked different from ordinary chickens. Its feathers were not the common white and gray, but beautiful green and blue. Its neck was completely white, like it was wearing a necklace.
Chu Qiao looked at the light curtain with a grin on his face. It seemed that his efforts were not in vain.
Xiao Diao's body tensed up, and he obviously noticed the fat hen.
She shook her head at Xiao Diao: "Don't make any noise."
Xiao Diao obediently lay down.
As the hen approached, netizens on the barrage became excited and urged Chu Qiao to act quickly.
【Catch it quickly.】
[So fat, I'm drooling. 】
[Is Mr. Chu braised or steamed?]
[But why doesn't Master Chu move? ]
【Opportunity is fleeting, and once lost, it will never come back.】
[Master Chu, don't wait any longer.]
Chu Qiao smiled without saying anything, as if he didn't see the hen. He let the hen wander around the camp at will, sometimes picking up a salt apple, sometimes eating a piece of dried lotus root, leisurely and comfortable.
Although Chu Qiao did not take any action, his eyes were fixed on the direction where the hen had just come from.
"Cluck, cluck, cluck—" The pheasant's chest rose and fell, making a crisp sound. The hen kept calling, and Chu Qiao straightened up, a mysterious smile on his face.
Ten minutes later, bursts of noisy sounds came from the bushes, and Chu Qiao's mouth couldn't help but crack.
"Here it comes..."
I saw a group of pheasants with long tails and colorful colors jumping and chasing each other and running out.
