Chapter 36
A small face poked out from the animal skin curtain, his eyes swept around the room, "Patriarch, where did Kemu go?"
"He went to find food for the rabbit, didn't he go with you?" Ke Tu was surprised, Ke Mu was always with Dolu recently, he thought they were going out together.
"I went hunting with Ah Qing, but I didn't see him." Duolu was anxious, "It was getting dark, and I didn't find him when I came back."
Ke Tu was also anxious when he heard that, he dropped the branch, stood up and walked out . "Wait," Xie Yi stopped him, and then asked Dolu
, "Where do you and Kemu usually find food for rabbits?"
.
"Let's go there. Wu Si, ask Ah Qing to take someone to look elsewhere."
Xie Yi and Ke Tu hurried to the place Duo Lu said, but they didn't see Ke Mu.
"Kemu, Kemu..."
Ketu's voice was loud, echoing in the empty mountain forest, but there was no response.
"Kemu never goes to strange places by himself," Xie Yi asked Dolu who had been following behind him, "Where did you and Kemu usually go?"
"No, it's all along this road. Walking nearby." There was a bit of crying in Dolu's voice.
"Kemu said in the morning that he was going to the hot spring cave, but I didn't agree. He wouldn't go there alone." Ketu thought for a while, and this was the only place Kemu could go to.
Sure enough, the three of them met Ke Mu on the way, he held the rabbit cage in one hand, and put the other in his arms, as if he was holding something.
The rabbits in the cage had grown up, and there was no room for the four of them to move. Kemu was a little tired, so he put down the cage and sat on the side of the road to rest.
"Kamu!"
"Brother..." Ke Mu raised his head in surprise, but suddenly remembered that he had slipped out. He immediately adjusted his mood and changed into a pitiful look, "Brother, Xie Yi..."
Ke Tu was angry again I was worried, seeing Ke Mu's appearance at this time, I couldn't get angry, so I just asked in a cold voice, "What's wrong?"
Ke Mu moved over step by step, stood close to Xie, and then spread his palm to reveal the small thing wrapped inside , "This bird is about to freeze to death."
The little guy in his hand has sparse gray down, a sharp beak hooked, and a little yellow claw exposed from the down, which seems to be frozen.
This season is not the breeding season for eagles. Xie Yi raised his eyebrows, but he didn't take it to heart, it wasn't surprising that anything happened in front of time travel.
Ke Tu didn't care about the life of the bird. Seeing that it wasn't something happened to Ke Mu at this time, his heart was full of anger, and he raised his hand to greet him.
Ke Mu flinched, but stood still without moving, and then got a hard slap on the buttocks.
It was only the second time that Xie Yi stopped Zhu Tu, "Okay, it's getting dark, let's go back first."
Duo Lu consciously went to carry the rabbit cage, and followed Ke Mu who was walking dully.
Back in the tent, Xie Yi changed Ke Tu's medicine and called Ke Mu who was squatting in the corner.
"Do you know why your brother beat you?"
"Yes," Ke Mu's eyes turned red, "You can't go out alone."
"Your current bow and arrow scimitar can kill mice and rabbits at most, in case you encounter leopards or the like What about the beast, your brother beat you because he was too worried." Xie Yi felt that the explanation was in place, and then he cared about the other little guy, "Is the bird you brought back still alive?
" It's gone." Ke Mu lifted it up carefully.
Perhaps it was because the fire in the tent was warmer, but the young eagle looked more energetic than outside.
"It's such a small thing, it doesn't even have a bite of meat." Ke Tu took a look at it along with the fun, but he didn't pay attention to what it was just now because he was angry.
Ke Mu was still a little timid about Ke Tu's slap, and his protest was weak, "This...is not for food, I want to keep it."
"This should be a goshawk's baby bird. It would be good if it can be raised and domesticated. It can also help you catch prey." Xie Yiyi is also very interested in raising eagles, but he used to run around everywhere and didn't have time to j□j at all.
With Xie Yi's support, Kemu has enough confidence to speak, "Brother Xie Yi, help me see, why doesn't it eat?"
Xie took the young eagle to the fire and watched it slowly open Eyes, asked Kemu, "What did you feed?"
"It's the same as a rabbit."
"Goshawks don't eat grass, they eat meat."
Kemu immediately cut a piece of meat with a stone knife and handed it to the young eagle's mouth.
Ke Tu expressed doubts on the side, "It is so small, can it eat meat?
" "It shouldn't be a big problem to be able to stand up, Kemu, bring some minced meat here."
Kemu put a little minced meat on his fingertips and moved it to the chick's beak. It just stood there dumbfounded, without opening its mouth. to eat. He held it patiently, and after a long while, the young eagle tentatively pecked it.
Ke Mu felt that the fingertips touched were a bit itchy. He held back and didn't move. After the young eagle finished eating the meat, he rubbed the red fingertips and muttered, "It hurts..."
"Don't let go, Eagle Its beak is very sharp." Xie put the minced meat on the wooden board and handed it to Kemu, "Feed it until it doesn't eat by itself, remember how much this little thing can eat, it will still have so much meat tomorrow, feed it three times."
" Oh," Ke Mu held up the wooden board and stared at Ogura Ying eating, the more he watched, the more he liked it, "Brother Xie Yi, let me give it a name."
"Okay, what's it called?"
Ke Mu pondered for a long time, and finally decided on a name with difficulty, "Let's call it Goshawk."
Xie Yi spat out the soup in his mouth with a "poof".
Ke Tu moved the bowl silently.
Ke Mu's face was full of innocence, "Brother Xie Yi, what's the matter?"
"It's okay, if you raise another goshawk in the future, what are you going to call it Goshawk No. 2?"
Ke Mu really thought about it, "Goshawk No. No, the name is too long, will it be difficult to pronounce."
"Change the name!" Xie Yi didn't want to call a goshawk to a goshawk every day, it's too stupid.
Kemu was caught in a tangle, all he could think of were the names of his clansmen, but he couldn't call him a goshawk like that.
Xie Yi rubbed his little head, "Eat first, and then think about it after eating."
"Oh."
After eating, Xie Yi planned to weave a bigger cage for the rabbit. It is estimated that after a while, the rabbit will be born. up.
While busy, Ah Qing came in carrying a small piece of meat.
"Patriarch, it seems to be getting colder these two days, and the prey is getting less and less."
Ketu also felt it when he went out today, "It should be snowing soon, so we need to ask the tribe to prepare more firewood."
"Not just firewood "Ah Qing said the problem that has been worrying for the past few days, "I haven't caught any prey in the past few days, and the sweet potatoes and jingzi noodles in the clan are gone. If it snows again, the food will definitely not be enough. Yes ."
He struggled for a long time, then hesitated to say, "Patriarch, if it's really not possible, should we release some people?
" It's about to germinate, and the food will gradually increase, and I didn't stock up my tribe when it was the coldest, and I won't do it now."
Ah Qing didn't want this to happen either. Every member of the tribe had once guarded the warriors of the Kasa tribe with weapons, and every time they abandoned them for the sake of the survival of the tribe, it was heartbreaking.
But if the food problem is not solved, the clansmen will starve to death.
Ke Tu frowned, "Tomorrow I will go hunting too. If we go further into the mountains, there will be more prey."
"But there are many beasts in the mountains, it's too dangerous." Ah Qing's voice was very weak, he knew This is also no way.
"It's okay, we will come back immediately when we catch a big prey, and we won't stay inside for too long."
