Little days of the last days [rebirth]

Chapter 82 What's in the Bamboo Forest

After moving, I was busy for a full week before I calmed down a little.

Early in the morning, Xu Chengle took Hen Ha out for a walk with the dog, and happened to see Cheng Xiao and An Ran coming out of the building next door. He greeted them and asked where they were going.

Cheng Xiao grabbed An Ran's hand, "Let's go around the back mountain and exercise."

The mountains behind their two houses are not too high, but the vegetation is quite dense.There are a lot of miscellaneous things these days, and I haven't had time to look around, and I don't know what's going on on the mountain.

"Then be careful, don't fall, and don't go too far." Xu Chengle pulled out the gloves from the coat pocket and put them on, "Oh yes, the master will come to install the solar power generation system in the afternoon, don't forget."

"I know, Yu Jingshan already said it yesterday." Cheng Xiao waved to him, and dragged An Ran to exercise.

The installation of this solar power generation system was done after Yu Jingshan asked Professor Huang to find a way to find someone to install it. It is equipped with new materials used in temporary resettlement houses.

According to Professor Huang, this new type of material incorporates a special substance found on planet X, which is very effective in improving the conversion rate of solar energy.

But at present, the travel from planet X to the earth is extremely labor-intensive and material resources, and the channel has not been fully opened, so until now this kind of material is still very expensive, and it cannot be put into commercial use in a short time.

Professor Huang took a little effort to get someone to distribute a little leftover material for them, and it is said that this little bit of leftover material is also very good.

Really owed a big favor.

The phone in his pocket rang, which was a reminder that the delivery drone was about to arrive. Xu Chengle blew a whistle, and the two big dogs wagging their tails and running happily turned around and ran back to the owner. He bent down and patted Their heads said, "Today's walk is over, let's go back to collect the goods."

Father Feng took his mothers to practice Tai Chi in the backyard in the morning, and Yu Jingshan reported to Professor Huang early in the morning.

The house is so empty and shabby, not to mention the furniture, the few stools and tables that are used now are made temporarily by Yu Jingshan from the trees on the mountain after he cut them down. There were not enough mattresses, and Chen Moge also supported a few beds.

Three drones followed one after the other, one for rice, one for vegetables and fruits, and one for daily necessities.He stood by the door and took them down one by one.

Cheng Xiao came back from a walk with An Ran, walking in a hurry, as if a little excited, seeing Xu Chengle by the door, he started yelling after a distance: "I found something good."

"What?" Xu Chengle, who was about to close the door, stopped his movements, and waited for his brother and sister-in-law to enter the room before closing the door to keep out the cold.

Cheng Xiao made a fool of himself, "Guess what I found on the other side of the mountain?"

"what?"

"Bamboo!" Cheng Xiao was a little excited, and the volume was uncontrollably loud, echoing in the empty room, "Bamboo forest!"

"Ah?" Xu Chengle didn't want to understand what is exciting about the bamboo forest, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with the bamboo forest?"

"Stupid!" Cheng Xiao patted the back of his head, "There is a bamboo forest, maybe there are bamboo rats."

"...Oh, you found the bamboo rat?"

Cheng Xiao: "I didn't find it. An Ran and I looked around to see if there was a hole in the mouse's nest or something, but we didn't find it."

Xu Chengle: "Not every bamboo forest must have bamboo rats, right?"

Cheng Xiao laughed a few times, bent over and patted the humming dog: "So, I want to take your two sons to look for it later."

Xu Chengle glanced at the time, it was already eleven o'clock, "I will cook in a while, and someone will come to install solar energy in the afternoon, let's go tomorrow, let's go find it together tomorrow."

"Okay, I'm a little excited and can't wait." Cheng Xiao opened the door, "Go back first."

Cheng Xiao's family and Feng Bao'er's family live in the larger villa next to it, and he, Yu Jingshan and Mama Yu live in this smaller villa with their two dogs.

They were used to living together, and suddenly they separated into two houses. It took them a few days to get used to it.

The next day Xu Chengle was still in a deep sleep when a knock on the door woke him up. Yu Jingshan sat up, took three seconds to wake up, and got up to open the door.

Cheng Xiao rushed straight to the room on the second floor like a gust of wind, and grabbed him from the bed, "Get up, let's dig mice."

Xu Chengle frowned, sat up Mimi staring, eyes still open, "Brother, you must have breakfast."

"Eat, you must have breakfast." Cheng Xiao raised the thermos in his hand, "I asked An Ran to cook the porridge."

"..." Xu Chengle opened his eyes a little, looked at his brother with an excited face, and said lazily, "You really don't feel sorry for your daughter-in-law, so you woke up so early to cook porridge."

"Fart, it was Qiu Sheng crying early in the morning that woke us up." Cheng Xiao went downstairs carrying the porridge bucket, "Hurry up, the porridge will be cold in a while."

"Oh." Xu Chengle rubbed his forehead, threw his head back on the pillow, sat up straight in less than two seconds, and resigned himself to his fate to get up. In fact, he was also looking forward to gaining something today.

After they finished their porridge, humming and eating their fill of dog food, the three of them and the two dogs set off with a few small shovels.

The bamboo forest is on the other side of the mountain, and it takes 15 minutes to walk around from the bottom of the mountain.

The road in this direction has not been used much before, so the ice on the ground has not been cleared, and it is quite slippery when walking.The mountain is not high, and the vegetation is quite rich. There are camphor trees, trees, and bushes half a person's height. Some trees have been frozen to death, and their leaves have fallen off. That.

On the side of the road, there were sparse bamboos mixed in the bushes, and after a short walk, a dense bamboo forest appeared in front of their eyes.

Xu Chengle whistled and called Henha who had run away, Cheng Xiao squatted down and said to the two dogs: "Help find the bamboo rat, find the bamboo rat, I will let your master eat canned food, the bamboo rat I can also share some meat with you."

Hehe squatted on the ground, looked at Cheng Xiao, shook his ears, then looked at his master, without moving.

Xu Chengle waved his hand, "Yes, find the bamboo rat and feed it to the meat!"

"Wow woof." Hengha stood up, wagging his tail, turned around twice, and ran into the bamboo forest.

"Let's look for it too." Cheng Xiao waved the small shovel, his eyes were shining, as if the treasure in front of him was not a bamboo forest.

"It would be nice if we could dig some bamboo shoots." Xu Chengle looked at Yu Jingshan, "Let's look for them separately."

"Yeah." Yu Jingshan walked to the front with a shovel.

Xu Chengle squatted down and the topmost layer of the ground was a thin layer of ice, and then there were piles of rotted bamboo leaves mixed with black soil. He dug up layer by layer and said to himself, " This soil is pretty good, it’s quite fat, you can get some back.”

Cheng Xiao was digging the soil on the hillside above his head, and he called out, "Brother, did you bring the basket?"

Cheng Xiao: "No, I just brought a net bag."

"……"All right.He continued to dig down, but he didn't see any bamboo shoots, nor did he see any suspected rat holes.He climbed up the mountain and decided to look for it in a high place.

There was no sign of Hum Ha around, "Brother, let's look inside, it's too close to the foot of the mountain, so it's unlikely."

"Okay." Cheng Xiao stood up, holding on to the bamboo pole beside him. There was no road on the hillside, and there was a layer of ice, so it was not easy to climb.

Supported by the two, they dragged the bamboo pole and climbed up a section.Xu Chengle saw a white figure passing by, it should be Haha.

The ice layer here is slightly thicker than that at the foot of the mountain. I smashed the ice layer and shoveled away the rotten leaves, but nothing was found.

"Hey, where is Yu Jingshan?" He glanced around, but he didn't see Yu Jingshan.

Cheng Xiao lowered his head and carefully dug the soil under his feet, and said: "You and Yu Jingshan are getting better and better, you can't leave Meng all day long."

"elder brother."

Cheng Xiao: "Huh?"

He suddenly wanted to tell his brother the truth, the words reached his throat and turned around.

Forget it, it's safer to talk to An Ran first, in case his brother overreacts to this kind of thing, it's safer to have his wife by his side.

"I think the quality of the soil is pretty good, and I want to take some back." Xu Chengle temporarily changed the subject.

"Do you want to open a vegetable garden in the backyard?" Cheng Xiao asked him.

"Yes." He was busy with a lot of chores in the house for the past few days, and he didn't have the energy to put the space in the front and back yards.

"Wang Wang Wang Wang."

"Did you find anything?" Cheng Xiaoteng stood up and looked around for the two dogs.

"Go, go and have a look." Xu Chengle carefully supported the bamboo pole in the direction of the voice, moving it step by step.

"There!" Cheng Xiao pointed to the front.

Hengheng and Haha were there, and Yu Jingshan rushed over after hearing the sound.

This distance is not far from the naked eye, and it took some effort and time to walk over it.

Where the two dogs were squatting, a hole was dug out, and there was a litter in the hole...

All three of them stared at the nest for a moment, speechless.

The litter looks like just born baby rats!The eyes are not opened, the fur is not fully grown, there are about a dozen of them, huddled together, wriggling once or twice from time to time.

"This..." Xu Chengle looked at the nest, "What should I do?"

Cheng Xiao squatted down, stared at the mouse carefully, "Take it back!"

"What?" Xu Chengle glared at his brother, "You inhumane, you're so young, you can eat it?"

"..." Cheng Xiao still stared at the nest, took out the net bag in his pocket, "Take it back and raise it."

Xu Chengle was even more shocked, "Isn't it? Are you sure what it is? Who knows if it's a bamboo rat, a mouse, or a squirrel?"
