Mu Qing's smooth and soft body got into his sleeping bag. The bag seemed a bit tight for the two of him, and the two bodies were almost tightly wrapped together.
Mu Qing twisted in his arms a few times, found a comfortable position, and then let out a long sigh against his neck.
Li Mang hugged her in the darkness and gently stroked her long hair that was scattered on his arms.
She waited for him to speak, thinking he had something to say to her, but for a long time, he remained silent.
"Limang, do you know how old you are?"
Mu Qing suddenly asked.
This question bothered her sometimes, but she kept forgetting to ask him. Now I suddenly remembered it, so I asked.
It is perfect to ask such a question on a late autumn night where only the sound of rain outside the tent and the sound of breathing inside the tent are left.
She felt that he was startled for a moment, but then he laughed.
He pulled one of her hands over, rubbed her palm, and then slowly bent her fingers one by one. After bending one hand, he took her other hand, and then again After repeating it twice, he stopped, but did not let go of her hand. He just whispered:
“I remember one year when I was a child, when the snow began to melt and sharp buds appeared in the ground, my grandmother took my hand and bent my five fingers, telling me that this was from the jungle after I was born. The five reincarnations began, and I grew up with them. Later, my grandmother passed away, but I still remember what she said. If I remember correctly, when I first saw you, all the fingers on my two hands happened to have taken turns. It has been bent twice. Using the numbers you taught me before, when I saw you, I had experienced this alternation of cold and heat in the jungle twenty times, right?"
Mu Qing leaned on his chest and laughed secretly.
"How old are you?"
He remembered and asked her this way.
Mu Qing hummed and shook his head. He pressed, but she refused to tell. But his curiosity was obviously aroused. When he was about to speak for the third time, she had already blocked his mouth first and used her own mouth.
After a long time, when the two finally separated but he was still holding her tightly, he suddenly whispered: "I actually want to tell you that from now on, no matter what happens, I will never lose her again." It's you and lightning. I swear to the gods in the jungle..."
Mu Qing recalled being pressed under him in the cave outside her settlement. When someone came in from outside, he looked at her as if he wanted to say something.
No matter what happens, he will never abandon her and Lightning again. Is this what he wanted to say to her at that time?
She stopped talking and just kissed him again in the darkness.
Early the next morning, Mu Qing was still a little sleepy and felt her legs being lifted up slightly, and then something hard was pushed directly into her body from her lower buttocks. It filled her instantly, and she was This intense stimulation woke him up, and when he turned around, he saw Li Mang holding his head against his back and looking at him with a smirk on his face.
Mu Qing already had back pain. After twisting a few times, he leaned towards the edge of the sleeping bag and pushed him out. But he didn't seem to let her go, and continued to lean in, pressing against her buttocks tightly. The space in the sleeping bag was too small for her to hide, and he immediately occupied it again and rolled over on top of her.
"No...I was already very tired last night...I still have to walk today..."
Mu Qing lay on his stomach and whined in protest. She really regretted being so obedient last night. It was a really stupid idea to sleep in such a small sleeping bag with him. She doubted that she would really be unable to walk today.
"I'll carry you..."
He laughed softly and rubbed his stubbled cheek against the smooth back of her neck and behind her ears. He knew that was her sensitive area, and every time he did this, she would become so soft that she turned into a pool of water, allowing him to swim in it.
It was the same this time. He didn't rub her for a few times before he heard several small, low moans coming from her throat, intermittently. The sound made him unbearable, and he thrust hard, making her scream loudly. There was a sound.
He was very satisfied, and just when he wanted to continue working hard to hear how many sounds she made, he suddenly stopped and leaned on her in frustration, and sighed.
Mu Qing couldn't help laughing, and used her strength to get out from under him, and crawled out of the sleeping bag.
Lingning was awakened by the scream she had just made. He opened his eyes and tilted his head to look at them, mouthing noisily.
Mu Qing came out of the tent holding Lightning in his arms. The rain had stopped long ago, the air was clear and moist, and the mist was slowly receding in the morning sun. Xiao Hei suddenly appeared from the forest, threw a pheasant at her feet, and then shook his upper hair vigorously. Water droplets immediately splashed everywhere, and Mu Qing couldn't avoid it, and it got all over her body and face. She smiled and patted the little black head, letting it go aside to enjoy breakfast, while she watched Li Mang dismantle the tent and pack his luggage.
Mu Qing was a little excited thinking that he would be able to return to the valley today. When he got up in the morning, the soreness in his back seemed to disappear all of a sudden. Li Mang said he would carry her home, and she turned around and smiled, already taking the lead and setting off.
At noon, when they were about to reach the cliff of the river, they stopped and took a rest.
Mu Qing felt a little hot, so he went to the river to wash his hands and face.
The river water in autumn is not as turbulent as when it rains in midsummer, and the water is much clearer and greener. Mu Qing squatted on the river bank, lowered his head and splashed water on his face, feeling cool. Just as he was about to wash his arms again, he suddenly saw several long, white, fat snake-like things floating under the water. He jumped up in fright and screamed, frightening the person holding Lightning Limang not far behind. Not lightly, he ran to her side in a few steps. When she pointed to something under the water with a white face for him to see, Li Mang laughed, handed the lightning to her, and leaned over to fish it out. It turned out to be something by the Jie Chang River. The stems may have been bent down and swollen after being soaked in the river, revealing the white meridians inside like corn silk, and water dripped from his hands.
Li Mang threw the stem away and looked at her, still laughing. Mu Qing was a little embarrassed when he saw that he was so frightened by a few clumps of grass stalks. He rolled his eyes at him and turned away. After just two steps, his steps suddenly slowed down.
Is it possible that the white meridian-like thing is the numbness she had experienced in the past?
When she first came here and was worried about her future clothes, Mu Qing also thought about the possibility of finding wild hemp and using hemp to weave clothes. But she had never seen a hemp stem, and had no idea what it looked like. She asked Li Mang, but he was also at a loss. Obviously, people had not learned how to use hemp at this time, and she gradually got used to sewing various kinds of hemp by herself. Animal skin clothing gradually dispelled this thought. Now I accidentally found these bunches of white meridian-like things in the water. If they are really fake, then I will have to go through iron shoes and find them nowhere. It takes no effort to get them.
Mu Qing put the lightning back into Limang's hand, returned to the river, fished out a few pieces of stalks that had rotted, peeled off the remaining skin on them, and rinsed them several times in the water. After washing away the mud stains on it, she was left with a few bunches of white and soft whiskers on her hands.
This should be wild hemp.
Mu Qing screamed excitedly, Feidi fished out the rest of the hemp stalks from the water and processed them in the same way, and finally cut off a large handful of hemp stalks with a knife.
She tied the fresh hemp into a knot, then brought it to the tip of her nose and smelled it. The meridians were washed clean and it exuded a light fragrance.
"Pounding the leaves and roots of this thing can eliminate swelling and poison on the body. I often see it outside, but I didn't pay attention to the fact that this stuff will come out when the stems are soaked in water. What are you doing with this?"
Li Mang looked at the pimples on her hands and asked curiously.
"This... this can be used to make clothes, weave curtains, and carpets in the future. It can also be used to twist very strong ropes and hold things in big bags... It has many uses."
Mu Qing responded with a smile, feeling a little sad in her heart. If they hadn't happened to grow by the river, they were broken by the wind or other external forces, soaked in the river water and lost the outer layer of skin, and then she happened to wash her face and hands here. , even if it takes a long time, I'm afraid she won't know that this seemingly ordinary grass-stemmed plant with yellow flowers is hemp.
She has never spun thread before, let alone weaving, but she has seen some old ethnic minority grannies performing ancient pure hand-spinning work in front of tourists, so she is not worried. As long as hemp is available, what will happen next During this long winter, she had time to study slowly.
In the evening, they finally entered the valley, dragging a large bundle of cut hemp stalks behind them. Li Mang also agreed to help her collect seeds. With the seeds, she can dig out a separate trench to plant hemp stems next spring.
Li Mang’s initial fears came true. When Mu Qing left at first, he planned to return in about half a month, so he used this time to prepare fodder for the animals. Now that I came back after all this delay, I found that the wooden fence at the entrance to the Sheep Cave had been pushed to the ground, and the sheep inside had escaped. What's worse, the straw shed for the wild birds had probably been blown down by the wind, and a corner of the fence had been crushed. There were pheasants inside. Not a single mountain bird was left. Even the last crop of wild vegetables was left in the field, and the leaves were scarred by gnaws.
Mu Qing hurriedly checked the Millet Cave where he stored food. He was relieved when he saw that the entrance of the cave was still the same, so everything inside was still safe. Just thinking about the missing animals makes me feel a little distressed. Li Mang saw it and wanted to make her happy. He was about to promise that he would take advantage of the season after late autumn to catch a lot of small animals for her to raise starting tomorrow. Suddenly, he heard the frightened cries of pheasants in front of him. The two of them looked up. Looking over, I saw Xiao Hei driving back a few pheasants who didn't know where he found them majestically.
Mu Qing was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Li Mang to repair the fence and close it again. After Xiao Hei drove back the animals, he remembered that he should search nearby, so he pulled Li Mang and the two of them circled the valley. After searching all over, I first caught two from the thorns, and then I saw a few in a small mountain col. What was funny was that some of them actually flew up into the bushes. Probably because the wing hair has not been trimmed for a long time, it has grown some, so it can fly some distances again. Finally, they took the fishing net and caught the wild birds that had climbed into the trees. Mu Qing counted it and found that although it was nearly half less than the original amount, she was quite satisfied with how much she could find.
When night fell, even the missing sheep returned to their original caves leisurely. It turns out that they have almost regarded this place as their own nest. They just ate all the hay put in it a few days ago, and then they climbed over the fence and went out to look for food in their own valley. It was getting dark now, so I went back to the home where I had lived for a long time.
Winter is coming soon. After this winter, this land will usher in its cycle of life again.
