Reborn amidst natural disaster, my childhood sweetheart and dad help me stock up and win effortlessl

Because of the delay caused by that group, Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo temporarily changed their plans.

They planned to go to the stream first and then return to the bamboo forest.

After walking for about ten or twenty minutes, the two could already hear the babbling of the stream.

Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo pushed aside the annoying branches and leaves in front of them, and through the gaps they could see the shimmering stream.

Jiang Li excitedly wanted to walk forward.

Suddenly, she froze.

Like a puppet, she slowly turned around to look at Ye Jingmo beside her.

Ye Jingmo, noticing that something was wrong with Jiang Li, immediately spoke up:

"what happened?"

Jiang Li gave a forced, tearful smile and pointed shakily to the ground.

She just felt as if she had stepped on something soft.

Ye Jingmo looked down following Jiang Li's finger and discovered that she had stepped on a snake.

It was completely black, like a tree branch.

The snake's tail was still swaying wildly, as if it were very angry that it had been disturbed.

Fortunately,

Jiang Li stepped on the snake's head, preventing it from biting her.

Ye Jingmo drew his knife and deftly severed the snake's head and tail in two.

The severed nerves of the snake were not yet dead, and its tail was still twisting.

Jiang Li felt a chill run down her spine; she was most afraid of these cold-blooded animals.

After about five minutes, Jiang Li slowly moved his numb foot away.

Upon closer inspection, she saw that the snake's head was triangular, clearly indicating that it was a venomous snake.

Jiang Li took a deep breath and patted her chest in relief.

Luckily, I stepped on the snake's head; if I had stepped on its body, I would have turned around and bitten it.

She could simply close her eyes, stretch out her legs, and wait to die.

Ye Jingmo put the snake carcass into a bag and had Jiang Li put it into her spatial storage.

Jiang Li took the bag with trembling fingers and disguised it by putting it into her spatial storage using her backpack.

She disliked her own hands.

Jiang Li rushed to the stream as fast as she could to wash her hands.

The plants along the stream are growing more lush than before.

Jiang Li didn't have time to observe the plants. She put her hands in the water and rubbed them inside and out, then washed the dirt off her body with water.

The weather was sunny and bright today, and Jiang Li, who was wearing a tightly sealed outfit, felt hot all over.

Feeling the cool stream water beneath her hands, Jiang Li comfortably squinted her eyes.

The stream carried away the heat in her heart.

Jiang Li took out three small earth dragons from her spatial storage, shrunken the leftover chicken heads and tails, and put them inside as bait.

Then they threw in a small stone.

She placed them in a place with lush grass, where small fish often hide.

Jiang Li made a mark.

Her requirements are not high; she just wants four or five small fish to fit into each trap.

Anyway, they're all meant to be taken home and kept as pets.

Ye Jingmo looked at the sun overhead and said to Jiang Li:

"Now that we've arrived at the stream and it's almost noon, let's have lunch first before heading to the bamboo forest."

Jiang Li patted her stomach, thinking it made a lot of sense.

She asked Ye Jingmo to start a fire by the stream while she went to catch two fish in the river for lunch.

Ye Jingmo built a stove out of pebbles from the stream, put dry branches inside, and lit a fire with a lighter.

The fish in the stream seemed to have become more wary, and immediately swam away upon sensing any movement.

Jiang Li abandoned the idea of ​​using a knife and fork to spear the fish and instead took out a fishing net.

She cast the fishing net down with force.

The fishing net, like a giant spider web, scoops up anything that touches it.

Jiang Li pulled the fishing net up to the stream and found five fish and two crabs hanging on it.

It wasn't a huge harvest, but it was enough for Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo.

Jiang Li killed the fish with a knife and threw its entrails into the stream.

She saw several shrimp gather around to enjoy them.

Seeing this, Jiang Li grabbed the shrimp without hesitation.

The shrimp struggled to stretch and contract in her hand, trying to escape her clutches.

Jiang Li threw them directly into a basin and carried it back to Ye Jingmo's side.

"Brother Mo, let's eat grilled fish."

Jiang Li smacked her lips; she was starting to miss the taste of grilled fish.

Ye Jingmo nodded; he would grant Jiang Li's every wish.

Skewer the fish, marinate it with cooking wine to remove any fishy smell, and then grill it over a fire.

He brushed oil onto the fish, which was the secret to making the grilled fish delicious.

Excess oil dripped into the fire, causing the flames to rise.

Jiang Li wasn't idle either; she put the crabs and shrimp into the water, covered them, and put them on the fire.

This way, you can grill the fish on one side and boil the crab on the other.

It makes perfect use of the stove space.

Ye Jingmo sprinkled cumin and other barbecue seasonings on the grilled fish, and a fragrant aroma wafted up.

This made Jiang Li's mouth water.

Ye Jingmo handed the grilled fish to Jiang Li, letting her eat first.

He took out the grilled fish that he had deliberately left unseasoned and tore it into small pieces.

Ye Jingmo carefully removed the fish bones and handed the fish to Pudding; this was prepared for it.

Jiang Li, her mouth greasy from eating, reluctantly nibbled on the last piece of fish on the skewer.

The grilled fish was so delicious.

After having eaten their fill, the two people and their dog rested by the stream for a while before heading back to the bamboo forest to cut bamboo.

After all, this is the most important task today.

We cut bamboo to build chicken coops.

The bamboo leaves rustled in the wind, but the bamboo itself did not move an inch.

Jiang Li carefully selected bamboo of the right size in the bamboo grove.

Ah!

After selecting the bamboo, Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo began to cut it down with their knives.

Every time the bamboo was cut in the same spot, the originally sturdy bamboo began to slowly tilt.

With the final strike, the bamboo slammed to the ground.

Jiang Li wiped the sweat from her forehead and, without taking a break, began to cut down a bamboo stalk with Ye Jingmo.

One afternoon, Ye Jingmo and Jiang Li cut down nearly twenty bamboo stalks together.

After storing the bamboo on the ground into her spatial storage, Jiang Li took a breath and said:

"Brother Mo, this bamboo is enough to build a chicken coop."

It's getting late, let's go back.

Ye Jingmo held Jiang Li's hand, letting her lean on him to rest for a while.

Once Jiang Li had recovered, he parted his thin lips and uttered a soft "good".

The two people and the dog then began to walk down the mountain.

They spent quite a while on the mountain, and by the time they reached the bottom, it was completely dark.

Jiang Li had no choice but to take out a flashlight to illuminate the way forward.

Footsteps approached from afar, and Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo instantly became alert.

Jiang Li shone the light into the distance, and only when the person slowly approached did she feel at ease.

That was a patrol team.

Do you need any help?

Seeing Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo's messy and dirty clothes, the soldier spoke with concern.

"No need, we're fine, you can go on patrol."

Jiang Li waved her hand and gave the soldier a grateful look.

After saying goodbye to the patrol team, Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo returned home.
