Chapter 22 Delicious Watermelon

After drinking the soup, Zhou Shan asked the unsatisfied men to grill a few fish, men!Understandably, a big appetite!And the salt stone is also quite heavy, so if you go back and forth, you must be hungry quickly.If you don't have enough to eat, how can you have the strength to work.

After eating and drinking, everyone happily went to work.Fortunately, the old people have weaved a lot of straw baskets these days. Otherwise, they are filled with salt and picked up eggs, I am afraid it is really not enough.

The craftsmanship of the old people is getting more and more exquisite, and the straw baskets they weave are strong and beautiful.She will teach them a few more styles some other day, which can be used to hold animal skins, eggs and so on.

Since the old people learned how to weave baskets, they no longer feel inferior and think that they are a burden.I don't always stay in the shed to be unhappy anymore, and I know how to walk around and talk and laugh.This is a good sign, and the people in the tribe are very pleased to see it, Shan still has a way!

As the saying goes, "An old family is like a treasure." This is not unreasonable. Old people at this age have experienced many things, and they will naturally know many things that we have never experienced.Their experience often allows us to avoid detours as much as possible.

For example, in hunting, old people can teach some of their experience and skills to young hunters, which will greatly reduce casualties and avoid unnecessary losses.

Everyone divided into two groups, the men went to the mountain to transport salt and rocks; the women and children were led by the mountain to collect eggs.The forest is densely covered with venomous snakes and venomous insects.Without long-sleeved clothes and trousers, Zhou Shan had to ask everyone to hold a long stick to prevent being bitten by poisonous snakes.

Zhou Shan guarded against those annoying insects along the way, while looking for edible food.After walking for a long time and still not finding anything edible, Zhou Shan was a little discouraged.Ordinarily, the resources in the forest should be quite rich!

Zhou Shan was fiddling with the grass with a stick when she suddenly heard a "dong".Zhou Shan was startled and thought it was some kind of dangerous creature. When she walked in, she realized that it was several big round watermelons.

Ahhh, watermelon!The holy grail of summer heat!Watermelon has the reputation of "the king of summer", refreshing and quenching thirst.She is thirsty and hot, God sent her watermelon, it is so sweet!
Zhou Shan hurriedly told everyone to stop. After walking for so long, she happened to eat a piece of watermelon to quench their thirst and take a rest.Zhou Shan took out the fruit knife she carried with her and rubbed it on her body.Don't care so much!Get dirty, get dirty!
Seeing that everyone was quite tired, Zhou Shan specially picked two big ones.After cutting it, Zhou Shan quickly took a bite.Wow, come alive!How does this watermelon grow? It's sandy and sweet.There is still a lot of juice.

Seeing that everyone was still standing there in a daze, Zhou Shan hurriedly asked them to eat.A group of people didn't know what Zhou Shan was going to do at first, but when they saw Shan cut up the strange round thing and picked it up to eat it together, they realized that it was for food!

After hearing Zhou Shan's greeting, everyone quickly took a piece and started eating.The first sip is gentle, the next is gobble.Unexpectedly, this weird-looking thing is so delicious.

Man Shan, who led everyone to look for eggs, was in a hurry to get the second piece before he finished the first one.One bite after another on the left, quite the charm of Brother Bajie.The women and children were not far behind, seeing the man took the second piece, they hurried to get it too.If you don't take it, it's gone!Didn't you see that there are only a few dollars left?It's true when you eat it in your mouth!
The few who didn't grab it too late, all pouted with aggrieved faces, woo woo woo~ why is it gone, they haven't had enough of that!Those who snatched it looked proud, hahaha, quick hands are king now!Can't eat fast!la la la!
The angry few people were even more aggrieved.They immediately started acting like a baby, and everyone looked at Zhou Shan eagerly, and they almost told Zhou Shan to cut another one.Seeing their little aggrieved eyes, Zhou Shan had no choice but to cut another smaller one.

Two yuan is enough for one person, and Zhou Shan is no longer going to cut it.It is not advisable to eat too much watermelon, otherwise it will easily cause spleen and stomach deficiency and cold accumulation abdominal pain, which may cause indigestion or diarrhea.And the few people who ate the second piece of watermelon were instantly satisfied.Good job Shan!It's decided, I will follow Shan from now on!
After eating the melons, several people were anxious to pick them and put them in the baskets.Zhou Shan watched them anxiously, and sighed deeply. "Don't worry, it won't be too late when we go back. If I pick it now, I'm too tired to carry it."

A few people who were still stretching out their hands heard this, and hurriedly retracted their hands.Scratching his head and giggling there.Everyone rested again before starting to hurry again.After rest, everyone's physical strength has recovered.After a while, Shan announced, "It's almost here."

Shan directly found a place that was not easy to be found by others, and as soon as he fiddled with the grass, several wild eggs came out.Because it is now summer, wild eggs are very easy to go bad.

Zhou Shan asked them to shake the eggs in their hands, and Zhou Shan told them to throw them away when there was a sound.Because such eggs are often loose yellow or close to deterioration, they cannot be eaten.After everyone learned it, they went in groups of two or three to find wild eggs.

It may be because no one eats it, but there are a lot of eggs in the grass.Everyone also found several pheasants. The ones from the primitive era were really silly, so they just stood there in a daze, looking at you curiously.It made Zhou Shan reluctant to arrest her.

Hey, but for the sake of appetite, they can only be sacrificed.Zhou Shan specifically told them not to kill the chicken directly, and wait until they go back.Zhou Shan has been thinking about trying to raise animals.

If it is really successful, they will be able to lay eggs and lay eggs, and they will have endless chicken and eggs.Quack quack ~ You can also rest assured to raise some other small animals, such as rabbits, wild boars and so on.In the future, there is no need to go hunting or dig traps every day.

After a while, everyone picked up a lot. Zhou Shan saw that it was almost done, and quickly asked them to stop. "That's enough, I have to pick some watermelons when I go back!"

The cheerful people who picked it up remembered the watermelon at this time.A few people secretly put down a few eggs, for fear that the watermelon would not be filled if there were too many eggs.In fact, Zhou Shan never thought of using a backpack.

Not only is it afraid of breaking the eggs, but it's troublesome enough tossing and turning, so it's better to just take a few smaller ones back.So Zhou Shan stopped their egg throwing work in time.

The big guy carried the eggs and carried the thumping pheasant to the watermelon field.Delicious watermelon, here they come!
