It took Xiao Ming more than an hour to finish the big iron gate. The semi-circular iron gate is mainly thick and strong. After it was finished, Xiao Ming looked at it and carved a flower in the middle of the iron gate. Although it is not necessary, it can be like this because that's where they live, it's home, and for moments like this, beauty is better than rigidity.
Stretching, Xiao Ming smiled and said, "Is the card slot ready?"
Landa took out some broken stones from the card slot with his fingers, and said with satisfaction, "Brother Xiao Ming, do you like it!?"
Xiao Ming reached the entrance of the cave, Although the entrance of the cave is semicircular, it is still irregular in some places. After several days of hard work, Landa and Bujia finally dug a 10-centimeter channel through the wall. "Great, it just so happens that my iron gate is finished." Enter the alchemy technique, take out the iron gate frame and there are two large iron gates.
The iron door frame is not in one piece, it is divided into two parts, which is easy to install. Xiao Ming supporting a part, pointed and said: "Embed this into the groove, and then fill it with stones, wait, isn't there limestone on the top of the mountain? You can get some and mix it with the soil, so that the groove will be filled first, and then pour it with molten iron." , This will save some time, and then we can go find Lime in the afternoon!"
Xiao Ming said happily, although the two brothers listened with a half-heartedly, they were also infected by Gao Ming's excitement, with smiles on their faces. Landa bared his canine teeth and said coquettishly, "Brother Ming, I'm hungry. When can I eat?
"
Embarrassed with a smile, "I've been eating too much lately."
"You are just growing tall, so you need to eat more." Xiao Ming twisted the cotton cloth used as a towel for the two of them, "I used to be able to eat a lot at your age. But, fortunately, I worked in the kitchen back then, so I didn't have to worry about food."
It was emotional to say the least, but when I brought up this topic, I thought of my master, and I didn't know if the old man was in good health. "Let's not talk about that, we'll have Teppanyaki for lunch today!" Xiao Ming took out a finished iron plate from the alchemy. There are gaps, and residue can fall through the small finger-wide gap. Iron handrails are added on both sides of the iron plate. In order to prevent hot hands, after eating today, find wood and leather to wrap the handrails. The stone-built stove has a small fire. In order to preserve the gas of the lighter, the fire will not be turned off every time I cook dinner, and the fire will be kept. In this way, the lighter can be used for a few more years. Anyway, there are a lot of firewood in the mountains, and the cave is flooded at night, so it is better to keep the fire. When Landa saw that Xiao Ming brought out something new, he knew that there was something delicious again. Eyes wide open, staring at Xiao Ming's every move, Bujia was looking and touched Landa's head with a smile on his face. Putting the iron plate on the stove, and when the iron plate is 70% hot, Xiao Ming presses the fat meat prepared in advance on the iron plate with chopsticks, the temperature gradually rises, the fat on the iron plate turns into oil, and the whole iron plate looks shiny. The fat has been fried into dregs, Xiao Ming pushed the scorched dregs out of the cracks, and the fire made a crackling sound. Bujia was staring at Xiao Ming's every move in fascination. The two unfamiliar pieces of wood can be used by Xiao Ming lightly, just like Xiao Ming, who is wearing strange clothes and lying in the jungle. He is not like the people here, but he can always bring them different surprises. Xiao Ming, who was re-frying the fat, felt Bujia's strong gaze, and couldn't help but feel relieved. Bujia must have been fascinated by his expression of seriously working! Fuck, he changed the angle of cooking, his left side face is the most beautiful, Bujia will definitely be fascinated by him, and then he will bow down under his little leather skirt! Xiao Ming was obsessed with the beautiful mosaic in his head about him and Bujia's future, and put the sliced meat on the iron plate smoothly. The sliced meat is meat that has been marinated in an iron barrel for five days. This thing can't be eaten fresh, because they have a lot of cured meat, and the fresh ones have not been beaten. Let's make do with this meal. I hope I can find pepper, so that I can eat pepper steak. If it's not possible, the pepper pork chop will do.Grilling meat on a fire is still different from grilling meat on an iron plate. The iron plate sizzled and the smell was good. Landa was sniffing and said, "Brother Xiao Ming, this smells so good!
" Taste." Gao Ming picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it in Landa's small stone bowl.
They often cook black fruit soup. Spoons are common to Randa and Bujia, but this is the first time they have seen chopsticks. Landa grabbed the wooden spoon and scooped up slices of meat. The meat wobbled in the spoon and fell into the bowl before reaching his mouth. Landa couldn't eat it, so he picked up the bowl and used the spoon scoop it into his mouth.
The mouth is full of the smell of meat, fat and thin, tender and oily when bitten down. Landa muffled and waved his spoon, "Brother Xiao Ming, this is delicious!"
Xiao Ming put piece of fried meat into the Bujia bowl. Feeling embarrassed.
"There are also slices of potatoes and mushrooms . These two are also delicious when fried." Xiao Ming placed the potato slices and mushrooms on the iron plate.
Bujia, who is usually a carnivore, greatly appreciated the fried mushrooms and potatoes. Xiao Ming was very happy, thinking about giving the two brothers more treats to eat in the future.
After a lunch, the sky cleared and the sun came out. The air was moist and fresh. The sun shone brightly. It was warm and was accompanied by a cool breeze, and the temperature was just right. Landa jumped happily, picking fruits and putting them into the rattan box. Xiao Ming was wearing a cloth bag slung across his shoulders, searching through the grass, trying to find peppers or other familiar things.
Bujia, who used to hold a bone knife, now holds a kitchen knife, which makes him look handsome, but Xiao Ming has seen Bujia hunt with a kitchen knife, he is so cool and handsome! The mountain on the right has been looked over several times, the potatoes have been dug up, the mushrooms and wild vegetables have been picked up. This time, the goal of the three is to look on the other side of the waterfall. The three of them found the place where the waterfall flowed down the steep rocks. The water was flowing slowly, and the gently formed a river and a slope. There were stones in the middle of the two to three meter wide river. Bujia took the lead and stepped on it first. The water level is not high, not reaching the calf. "Landa, be careful of slipping and falling." Xiao Ming warned.
After crossing the river, there are dense bushes. Bujia's expression became vigilant. Fall is not only for them to find food to prepare for winter, but also to hunt animals. Landa's footsteps also slowed down, and Xiao Ming followed at the end to observe the surrounding area. He was holding the bone knife that Bujia used before, while Landa was holding a new slender fruit knife.
Bujia found the grass that had been trampled on, quickly ran a few meters away with his long legs, found a thick tree and climbed halfway. Xiao Ming knew that Bujia had found prey in this way, so he and Landa stood in place without making a sound.
Sure enough, Bujia got down from the tree and said, "There are two moo moo in front."
Moo moo? Xiao Ming guessing that it was two cows. This thing is a big in modern times, but it is even more lethal in this primitive world when they have not been domesticated. I just thought about eating pepper steak at noon, and now I have two cows,such a coincidence!
"Take it!" Xiao Ming sharpened his knife, if the two cows could be taken down, there would be enough food for this winter, and he could consider getting something else. But... "Males or females?" The male's strength and temper are hard to handle, but the female's are probably okay.
"Males." Bujia said.
Both are male! Xiao Ming stroked his chin, squinted his eyes slightly, and said, "Do you want to take it?"
Bujia nodded, and wanted to take them down, and not let them go without reason. "Xiao Ming, you and Landa distract the little one, and I'll deal with the big one." two nodded and moved separately. Gao Ming Landa groped to the rear, trying to remain as calm as possible. The two cows were bigger than Gao Ming imagined, and he was afraid that Bujia would be injured. The horns of these things are not beautifully decorated, so he pulled Landa's hand and whispered: " Is this guy good?"
Landa looked solemn, "In the past, ten people went up together in the cave."
Xiao Ming nodded, and understood that Bujia was going to hunt to keep them from starving. He took Landa's hand, "lets go, go back and discuss the plan with Bujia."
Touching the grass where Bujia was crawling, Xiao Ming lay side by side, and whispered urgently: "You want to die!"
"But the snow season is coming soon..." Bujia frowned, obviously not planning to give up the two cows.
Xiao Ming blushed, remembering the first time Bujia was attacked by wolves, half his life was almost gone. Immediately saying harshly: "If you're dead, who should I spend the snow season with? Don't worry, I won't starve to death."
Bujia stared straight at Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming's blood was boiling, and he stared at his neck, you dare to go up to fight desperately. Damn, don't you look at the two cows that are about the size of elephants!
"Okay!" Bujia backed down helplessly.
The three of them walked around and came out of the grass quietly. Landa looked happy, and whispered: "Brother, I'm not afraid of being hungry, I'm afraid you'll end up like Eminem..."
Bujia touched Landa's head and said nothing.
After avoiding the two big bulls, the three of them walked up the mountain. Passing through a slope, there was a patch of red in the green grass. Xiao Ming quickened his pace and ran over, "Chili,I found the chili!" The terrain is flat, and there is a piece of ripe chili growing, the color of the chili is already red, and some even fell on the ground, Xiao Ming picked it and put it in his mouth. Xiao Ming chewed the chili, his face was red, he rushed over excitedly and hugged Bujia, "Bujia, this is chili!"
Dazed by the joy of chili, But after two seconds, Xiao Ming realized that he was hugging Bujia, and simply ate tofu. The half-bitten chili was stuffed in between Buijia's lips, "Take a bite!" The other hand was tightly around Bujia's waist, it felt really good!
Bujia lowered his head and took a bite. The novel taste he had never had before made him unable to accept it for the first time. The burning in his mouth seemed to be burnt. After spitting it out, his whole body was still hot.
Xiao Ming laughed out loud, Landa saw what happened and also picked the root and put it in his mouth, his whole face turned red from it being spicy .
"Pick it, take it all back!"Xiao Ming waved his hand, seeing Landa's frowning face, he knew that the little guy didn't know the beauty of it, so he coaxed: "I'll make something delicious for you when I go back, this thing tastes delicious , and it can also bring warmth when eating in winter."
Little Randa started to pick the peppers. Xiao Ming threw the fruit in the rattan box into his cloth pocket, and the whole rattan box was filled with peppers. The sun was slowly heading towards the west, the rattan frame had already been picked, and there was not much left in the field. Xiao Ming decided to go to the top of the mountain to find lime, and then he caught two Gu Gu to return to the cave.
Climbing to the top of the mountain, I found a pile of limestone not far from the waterfall, but there was nothing to put it in. There are chili peppers in the rattan box, wild fruits and vegetables in the cloth pocket, and there is nothing to put the lime in at all. Looking up at the sun, it was getting late, and it would be troublesome to go back, Xiao Ming frowned.
Bujia untied his leather skirt and handed it to Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, not knowing where to keep his eyes at.
"Here!" Bujia put the leather on the ground and started digging with his hands. "Wait for a moment." Xiao Ming pretended to be calm, tried not
to blush, turned his back and found a wooden stick, "push it, this thing hurts your hands."
Thinking that the leather was worn by Bujia, as if Bujia's body temperature still remained on the fur, and finally reached the cave, Xiao Ming hurriedly started to make lime mud at the entrance of the cave.
Landa helped to insert the door frame into the slot, and Gao Xiing stuffed the mixed lime mud into the slot tightly, and smoothed out the unevenness along the opening. After the door frame was installed, Xiao Ming pressed the iron fence on the door frame. The molten iron burning in the iron stele flowed through the gap between the cave door frame and the iron fence, the two places were the same, and finally pressed the airtight iron gate. When the iron gate was closed tightly, the whole cave was dark.
Unlocking the thick latch, Xiao Ming pulled open the iron gate on the inner floor, and through the iron fence, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled into the cave, looking out of the cave, with this extra layer of protection, their safety would be better.
