020 - I want to forget one thing

Swimming across the stream with ginger, the thief didn't care about collecting stone chips, after all, with a bigger harvest, collecting stone chips to make tools was not so important.

Now what he wants to do most is to take the ginger and the rhizomes back and plant the rhizomes on the edge of the waterhole in front of the cave.

Although ginger can survive with rhizomes, who knew that its rhizomes lost water before planting?

Because of this thought, the thief simply put it away, took all the stone chips he had picked up in the morning, went down the mountain, and returned to his residence.

The first thing he did was to plant the rhizomes, and in order to prevent the beaked birds from destroying the ginger stalks of these precious plants, the thief also broke some branches and inserted them around them, forming a small fence.

By the time everything was done, it was almost an hour later.

The thief sat against the shade of the tree, polishing the stone chips in his hands, looking at the ginger, and his joy was overflowing.

"If it can be planted successfully, Lao Tzu will never have to eat those barbecued meats without any taste in the future. The thief muttered.

While muttering these words in his mouth, Ji Thief suddenly had a look of pity on his face, and sighed: "It's a pity, there is ginger and no salt." ”

People are so greedy, when you have something, you think of something better.

That's the attitude of the thief.

It's just that salt is not the same as ginger, and this thing needs to be refined.

Of course, the thief can also follow the example of a monkey and get salt from his companions.

It's just that, thinking about it, Ji Thief sighed.

"It's better to get salt from those primitive people, primitive people who have never eaten salt originally had less salt on their bodies, and they are dirty, what if they eat the dead?"

Ji Thief thought worriedly, but other than that, he didn't know where to get the salt.

Although Ji Thief knows the refining method of sea salt, the crux of the matter is that the valley he is in is not known how far away from the coastline, and he is afraid that he will not be able to meet it in his life.

In the case of land salt, it can be, after all, most of the food in Chinese history is land salt.

But the crux of the problem is that the thief doesn't know how to extract it.

"Forget it, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so what do you do with so much. Ji Thief comforted himself in his heart.

Soon, the thief gathered up his superfluous thoughts, took the sorted stone shards and continued to chop the trees, preparing the trunks for the bed.

By the time he was done, it was almost time for the people to come back from the hunt.

Sure enough, when the thief put down the things, the fat elder had already brought someone to call the thief here.

After saying a little bit, the thief put everything away and came to the middle of the valley with the fat elder.

The food obtained is still the same as yesterday, the meat is only a few poor little animals, but the fruit is the same, no, it should be said, a little less than yesterday.

This can be felt by the thief from the weight of the food in his arms.

And the difference is that the people who were calm yesterday have a little unhappy expressions at this time.

As for why, Ji Thief didn't figure it out.

After dividing the food, the fat elder stopped the thief again, saying that the wizard was looking for him.

To be honest, Ji Thief blushed a little.

What's the matter with this witch, why is she always looking for herself at night, after all, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and the lonely men and widows are always not very good to hear.

After agreeing, the thief said to wait a while, then returned to the residence with his own fruit and took out the ginger pieces he had obtained during the day.

Just as he was about to go to the witch's quarters, he heard footsteps outside the cave, followed by the sound of snow.

"Warriors, warriors. ”

The little girl's voice sounded very excited, thinking that she had encountered something happy.

Ji Thief hurriedly got up and came out of the cave, and saw Xue coming over with a bunch of vines, and when she came to her, the little girl patted her chest and gasped: "Warrior, do you see that these vines can be used, if not, I will pick them again tomorrow." ”

Seeing this, the thief sighed and asked in surprise, "Sister, how did you do it?"

Xue blushed: "I didn't participate in the hunt today, I picked vines." ”

Ji Thief understood, no wonder the food he got today became less, it turned out that Xue did not pick the fruit, but ran to the vines, and at the same time, he also guessed why those primitive people were unhappy.

His original intention was just to let Xue collect some vines by the way, but this stubborn Nizi was busy with this all day, and it also aroused the resentment of her companions.

Thinking to herself, Xue's stomach suddenly screamed.

Ji Thief came back to his senses, and after a little thought, he knew that eighty percent was because the snow was just picking vines and not hunting, so he didn't get any food at all, thinking of this, he said: "Sister, you wait first." ”

As he spoke, he took out his fruit from the cave and handed it to Snow.

"Warrior, what are you doing here? I can't ask for your food. "Snow doesn't understand.

Ji Thief deliberately said with a straight face: "Take it, because I haven't even got any food, how can you do if you don't eat?"

Xue bowed her head and muttered, "Actually, I ate it, and my father and mother gave me some." ”

As she said this, Snow's stomach crumbled twice.

Ji Thief knew that this girl was lying, and couldn't help but stuff the fruit into Xue's arms, Ji Thief said: "These vines are enough, tomorrow, don't worry about these, sister, you can do what you want." ”

While talking with his back to the snow, the thief tugged at the vines with his hands to test its softness.

How did he know that behind his back, the corners of his eyes were a little moist with the snow holding the fruit.

"Well, Warrior, I see. Snow's voice said with a cry.

"Well, that's for the best. Didn't notice the crying in the snow's voice, the thief experimented a few times, and found that the flexibility of those vines was very good, not inferior to those of the Black Mountain tribe, for a while, nodded with satisfaction, picked up those vines and thought to himself while entering the cave.

I finally don't have to sleep on the floor tonight.

Ji Thief let out a long sigh in his heart, and said with some eyebrows raised.

He sent all the vines into the cave, lit a bonfire, and then arranged the processed wood in turn, and then used the vines to tie the wood one by one.

After half an hour of busy work, there was an extra cuboid stand on the ground.

In addition to the four borders, the middle thief is also tied with extra trees, and reinforced with the principle that the triangle will never be deformed.

Putting the semi-finished bed frame up, Ji Thief tested the firmness of the semi-finished bed with his hands, and nodded with satisfaction after seeing that it was strong and did not shake.

Xue Xue, who watched the thief's busy work the whole time, put down the fruit he was gnawing on, and asked weakly: "Warrior, is this the bed you said you can rest?"

It's no wonder that Xue asked like this, after all, the so-called bed made by Ji Thief does not have a bed board, he just made a four-sided frame now, and when people lie on it, they will only fall down, saying that it is a bed, but in fact, it is more like a coffin without a wooden board.

Ji Thief had also thought of this a long time ago, and smiled: "So, ah, the last procedure is still needed." ”

As he spoke, the thief placed the remaining long logs on top of them one by one, piled them up together, and made them look like a bedboard.

Because when tying the bed frame, Ji Thief deliberately left extra length, so when he put these woods on it, he didn't need to use vines to fix them, he just took the inlay technique.

After more than an hour, the bed was finally made, and although the side used to make the bed board was a little panicked because of the rounded nature of the wood, it was still more comfortable to spread soft things such as hay on top than to sleep on the ground.

Looking at the finished product that he took two days to complete, Ji Thief clapped his palms and said proudly: "Sister, lie down and try." ”

Xue nodded, and climbed onto the inferior bed fifty centimeters high.

Ji Thief asked expectantly, "How do you feel?"

Xue thought for a moment and replied honestly: "It's very uncomfortable." ”

When the thief heard this, he pouted, called the snow down, and piled up all the hay on the ground where he rested yesterday, and after patting it firmly, he said, "Now go up and try." ”

Xue lay down, tried it, and said, "Well, it's comfortable, but warrior, is there any difference between doing this and being on the ground?"

"Silly you, in this case, those snakes, insects, rats and ants will not be able to climb up, and you don't have to worry about bites or anything when you sleep at night. As he spoke, the thief called the snow down and continued to make his bed.

As soon as Xue heard this, she instantly understood.

It's convenient to sleep on the ground, but as the thief said, when I woke up the next day, there were always many traces of insect bites on my body, and if it was a non-toxic insect, it was okay to say, but it was just a little itchy.

But if you are unfortunate enough to encounter a poisonous insect, it is not a problem that can be solved by itching.

You know, every once in a while, there will always be unlucky people in the tribe who are accidentally bitten by poisonous insects and lose their lives.

The practice of Ji Thief is indeed an effective prevention of poisonous insects.

Moreover, the key issue is that sleeping in that so-called bed is as comfortable as sleeping on the floor.

Thinking of this, Xue's eyes instantly lit up, and she clenched her fists and looked at Ji Thief excitedly: "Warrior, how did you come up with this?"

The thief who slapped the bed looked back puzzled: "What?"

Xue pointed to the bed: "This is it." ”

Ji Thief sighed, stopped and said: "You say this, we all rest like this, girl, let me tell you, our bed is much better than this, but soft... and..."

As he spoke, the thief's voice stopped.

Xue looked at him curiously: "Warrior, what's wrong with you?"

Ji Thief hissed: "I always feel as if I have forgotten something, what is it?"

Xue stared blankly at the thief.

"Damn, forget that was looking for me! Suddenly, the thief reacted, shouted, picked up the ginger block and ran towards the witch's residence, and when he went out, he did not forget to tell Xue to wait for him to come back.

The unknown Xue only agreed, and before she could say a word of caution, the thief had disappeared.
