"There is a natural energy barrier at the junction. We are no better than oriole in that we can freely travel through that energy barrier. Once we enter, we cannot come out," Qiu Yan said.
As for where the energy barrier at the junction came from, he didn't know. Anyway, that's what the ancestors said.
Qiu Ying was startled, but luckily she asked.
She originally planned to ditch the hunting team one day and sneak into the central area of ​​the forest alone to go to the place where Blood Sun crashed to inquire about the situation. If she couldn't get out after going in, that would be troublesome.
She doesn't want to stay alone in the forest and be a savage!
Therefore, before she understands the situation here, she still needs to establish a good relationship with the people in the hunting team. As for the other people in the village, forget it.
Qiu Yan dug twenty traps alone, and Qiu Ying went to the woods not far away, chopped a lot of wood, used a black sword to sharpen a lot of sharp sticks, and also killed a group of winged rabbits and a pheasant.
.
The winged rabbits turned into blood and poured into Qiu Ying's body. Qiu Ying returned with the pheasant and a large bundle of wooden sticks, inserting sharp wooden sticks into each trap.
Then, she sprinkled some oriole viscera in the basket on each trap, cut some bamboo and put it on the pit, sprinkled shrub branches and leaves, and then sprinkled a layer of loose soil.
Qiu Yan praised: "This trap is really meticulously made. The most we can do is dig a big pit. We can pick up the beasts that fall into the pit, but not many. But with this trap you made, I think the harvest will be good."
"
Qiu Ying also smiled slightly and said: "We made this trap together, it is not my credit."
"Haha... then I will take advantage of you." Qiu Yan laughed.
He once again felt that the clan leader was too wise to let them bring Qiu Ying to hunt together. It would be a waste of talent like Qiu Ying to be trapped in the village.
"Let's go, let's grab some millet while the orioles have flown away. You definitely don't want to go back to that cave now." Qiu Yan said with a smile.
The words came to Qiu Ying's heart. Now she knew without thinking that the smell in that cave must be terrible. She would rather go cut millet.
Even some scattered millet valleys in the peripheral mountainous areas grow in large areas, but the terrain is irregular and uneven, making harvesting a bit troublesome.
Normally, if someone comes to cut millet, there will definitely be a flock of oriole attacks. But today, all the oriole flocks rushed towards Qiu Sen and the others.
Now Qiu Yan and Qiu Ying found a field of millet and began to harvest the ears with swords. Not a single oriole appeared, allowing them to easily cut the ears of the entire field.
Qiu Yan's basket on his back couldn't hold it, so he made four baskets out of rattan. After filling them, he and Qiu Ying carried two baskets each and walked around to another stronghold in Qiujiazhuang.
Coincidentally, another hunting team in the village was having lunch in the stronghold, and they were all shocked when they saw the millet they brought in.
After captain Qiu Yang figured out the whole story, he looked at Qiu Ying, his eyes lit up, and praised: "Girl Ying is so smart, her brain is so bright, she deserves to be... your mother's daughter!"
Qiu Ying had an intuition that the person he was really talking about was not Qiu Meilin, but another man, but she pretended not to understand and just smiled lightly and reminded: "While the birds are fighting, we must seize the time to harvest the grain.
"
"Let's go first. You can eat some barbecue and drink some vegetable soup first."
Qiu Yang warmly greeted the two of them for lunch, and said to Qiu Ying: "Girl Ying, we also have a lot of wild beast offal here, and we haven't lost it yet. After you finish the meal, take Xiaoqiang to dig traps."
Qiu Yan laughed: "Brother Yang, you are really good at catching mistakes. Ying Yatou is a member of our team. She dug a trap for your team. Who will be the prey then?"
"Let's split it in half. As an uncle, how can I take advantage of Ying girl?" Qiu Yang said with a smile and handed over a piece of barbecue.
Qiu Ying didn't answer, but she took a piece of barbecue and smelled the aroma, and she felt hungry, and then she realized that she hadn't even eaten breakfast.
The barbecue has some firewood, but for those who are hungry, it is delicious.
After eating a large piece of barbecue, Qiu Ying took a bamboo tube of wild vegetable soup from the black-faced boy Qiu Xiaoqiang. After drinking it, she felt very comfortable and couldn't help but smile at him.
Qiu Xiaoqiang actually blushed. Although the blush was not obvious because of his dark face, the young man was just shy.
This boy is Qiu Yang's son, and he has just joined the hunting team. He is not strong in combat and cannot play a big role in the team. Sending him to follow Qiu Ying to dig traps is purely a waste of Qiu Yang.
What if the effect of that trap is better than the traps they usually dig?
Qiu Ying just didn't want to cut millet anymore, it was too boring, and she didn't want to go back to Qiu Sen's cave, so she took Qiu Xiaoqiang to dig traps everywhere.
The two of them spent the whole afternoon digging traps. When there was not enough offal for bait, Qiu Ying killed pheasants, mountain cats, etc., cut them into eight pieces, and threw the meat and offal into the traps respectively.
Even Qiu Xiaoqiang, who was taciturn, felt distressed and mustered up the courage to say, "You can keep the meat."
Qiu Ying said nonchalantly: "There are wild animals all over the mountains and plains, not least of which are these. Don't be stingy."
Qiu Xiaoqiang: "..." Well, he is so useless that he is so stingy. If everyone is as strong as cousin Qiu Ying, they really don't need to care about such wild things!
Qiu Ying didn't pay attention to what he was thinking. She went to the small river not far away, washed her hands, and killed two fish with a black sword.
It was getting dark, and it was almost time for dinner. Qiu Ying called Qiu Xiaoqiang again: "Go and pick up some dry firewood, make a fire, and let's grill the fish."
After having barbecue for lunch, Qiu Ying wanted to change her taste and eat grilled fish in the evening. However, when she finished packing the fish, she thought of a very important problem - there was no seasoning for grilled fish!
Qiu Xiaoqiang said shyly: "Cousin, I brought salt, okay?"
Qiu Ying felt very good about this young boy, and her smile appeared: "You can be more confident, remove the word "?", and if there is salt, you can grill the fish."
The grilled fish with only salt tasted okay, but when Qiu Ying ate it, it tasted like wax, and she couldn't help but think of Yin Dong's grilled fish.
That taste is really unique!
"Who is Yin Dong?"
Suddenly, Qiu Xiaoqiang asked curiously, which made Qiu Ying's expression froze, and she realized that she had accidentally let something slip and said what was in her heart.
Qiu Ying's face sank slightly and said, "You heard wrong."
"..."
Chapter completed!
