Chapter 1318 Extra: Du Fu 44

Dragging the bamboo near the big rock, Du Lai began to measure the distance. The bamboo had to be cut into uniform lengths to build the roof.

Fu Miaoxue circled around Du Lai, helping him hold the bamboo pole and handing him rattan sticks. She wished she could help him do everything right away so that she could catch birds!

"When are we going to catch birds?" she asked Du Lai expectantly.

Du Lai found a fulcrum on the tree branch, put the bamboo pole up, put the other end on the rock, and fixed it with rattan.

He glanced at the sky and said, "Let's go now."

"Okay!" Fu Miaoxue was very excited and saw that there was only a frame on the roof. She asked hesitantly, "Then... what about the tent?"

"Let's do it slowly. We'll go look for the bird's nest today." Du Lai smiled at her, "If you're lucky, there will be a long-term supply of bird meat in the future."

Fu Miaoxue was so excited that she pulled him and asked: "Do you have an idea? How to catch it? Please teach me!"

"Bring water first, we may go a long way." Du Lai bent down and tightened the palm skin on his trousers, and said jokingly, "Don't complain about being tired for a while."

"I'm sure I'm not tired!" Fu Miaoxue put on the bamboo tube and was as happy as a primary school student, "Let's go quickly! Let's go catch birds!"

Du Lai looked around and pointed in one direction: "Go that way."

Fu Miaoxue immediately followed his pace.

…

After walking for an hour, Fu Miaoxue said nothing.

After walking for two hours, Fu Miaoxue still didn't say a word...

Du Lai heard an obvious gasp behind him.

He stopped and asked Fu Miaoxue with a smile: "Miss, are you tired?"

Fu Miaoxue stopped, held her knees and gasped for air, shook her head and said nothing.

Du Lai smiled and said, "If we are tired, let's rest here for a while."

Fu Miaoxue picked up the bamboo tube and raised her head to drink water, but the water in the bamboo tube had already been drained. She shook the bamboo tube and only a few drops flowed into her mouth.

Fu Miaoxue put down the bamboo tube in frustration, her voice weak: "I'm not tired."

Du Lai raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "You have a pretty tough temper."

Their journey was not a flat road, but up and down, constantly climbing. The physical exertion was so great that even he couldn't bear it, but Fu Miaoxue insisted that he was not tired.

After getting along with her for a few days, Du Lai roughly figured out her character. This woman's choices depended on her mood. Since she said she wasn't tired, he stopped trying to persuade her.

The night was very dark at this time, but the moonlight was very bright and there were no shadows from trees around, so it did not affect their exploration.

Du Lai stopped at a stone slope and bent down to pick up a few stones.

Fu Miaoxue came up to him and asked, "Why don't you leave? I'm really not tired. Let's go catch the birds. If we don't wait until dawn, they might fly away."

Du Lai was picking through several rocks, not in a hurry, "What do you see on the ground?"

Fu Miaoxue was stunned for a moment, looking down at the ground. There were nothing more than stones, dead grass, and some speckled stains.

"What are you looking at?" she asked doubtfully.

Du Lai said: "Bird poop."

Fu Miaoxue: "..."

She curled her lips in disgust, "What's so good about bird poop..."

"There are obviously more bird droppings around here." Du Lai threw two stones and picked up another one with a more satisfactory shape and size. "I guess if we walk further, we will find the bird's nest. From now on, we will try to be as gentle as possible." , and stop talking."

Fu Miaoxue listened carefully and nodded solemnly.

The two of them continued walking forward.

The stone slope climbed higher and higher, and there were more and more bird droppings under their feet, until they came to a cliff and finally witnessed an extremely spectacular flock of large birds!
