Chapter 227 White Deer and Red Fox 9
After eating and drinking, the little white deer took a rest by the stream. After staying in the cave for so long, he felt like he was about to stink.
There happened to be a stream here, so the little white deer simply washed himself. Just as he was washing vigorously, he suddenly heard a noise behind him.
The little white deer immediately turned its head and put on a defensive look, but then it heard familiar footsteps. The red fox was walking towards it step by step, holding a few rabbits in its mouth.
Seeing this, the little white deer breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the red fox.
After spitting the rabbit in its mouth onto the ground, the red fox licked the head of the little white deer beside it, with tenderness in its eyes.
"Are you hungry? I caught some rabbits."
"I'm not hungry. I just ate some nuts. I just met a squirrel and found a lot of fruits. Do you want to eat some?" The little white deer shook his head. Although he quite liked to eat meat, his body couldn't eat meat. The last time he ate some, he had a stomachache. It was not much to eat.
"No, I just ate a rabbit. If you like, we can find some nuts later. I remember there seem to be a lot of squirrel nests nearby." The red fox said as he recalled that he was not very interested in nuts and squirrels, so he ignored them when he met them before.
However, he had indeed seen where the squirrels hid their food before. Although he didn't remember the exact address, he was sure to find it if he looked for it.
"No, I can't eat many. I just dug one and it almost pissed off the squirrel to death." The little white deer shook his head quickly. He just ate a little and the squirrel was so angry that it wanted to hang itself. If he dug a few more, he was afraid that the forest would be full of hanged squirrels in a few days.
"Okay!" Seeing this, the red fox did not force it. After all, spring would be here soon and he would have whatever he wanted to eat then.
"Do you want to eat fish? I just saw some fish under the lake." The little white deer looked at the red fox who was about to go back and suddenly remembered the frozen fish he had just seen.
"There are fish?" The red fox hesitated for a moment. If the little white deer hadn't said it, he wouldn't have thought there was anything wrong. But when he mentioned it, the red fox became a little greedy.
It had been several months since he had eaten fish. The red fox began to drool at the thought of the delicious fish.
"Well, I just saw a few frozen under the ice." The little white deer said as he walked to the place he mentioned.
The red fox walked onto the ice in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, saw several fish frozen in the ice.
The red fox threw the ice quickly with his claws. After a while, the ice was opened up and a frozen fish was caught by him.
The red fox swallowed the fish in one gulp. The fish, frozen hard, was very fresh, but a little cold. The red fox was so cold that it couldn't help but breathe out.
"Delicious!" After eating, the red fox licked his paws and said as he looked at the remaining frozen fish.
"Since you like to eat it, just throw it all out!" said the little white deer while standing aside and drinking water.
The red fox nodded, then lowered his head and continued to throw ice. After a while, he caught all the remaining fish.
While the red fox was catching fish, the little white deer walked aside to find some dry branches so that he could make a fire and roast the fish and other things.
There were many dry branches in the forest, but now they were all buried by the heavy snow. Mu Qing searched in the snow for a long time before he dragged out some drier branches. Although the number was not large, it was enough for them to make a fire.
While the little white deer was dragging the branches back, the red fox had already caught all the fish and even skinned and cooked the rabbit.
The little white deer and the red fox lit a fire, and immediately the surroundings became much warmer. The fur on their bodies was also dyed red by the firelight.
The fish and rabbit meat soon became fragrant when grilled over a high fire. The rabbit oil flowed into the fire, making a crackling sound, which was very pleasant to hear.
The red fox and the little white deer sat around the fire, enjoying the warmth and the fragrance of the food.
When Mu Qing saw that the fish and meat were almost roasted, he put his dried radish, chestnuts and other things in. Under the high fire, these things began to emit fragrance after a while.
The red fox and the little white deer sat by the stream, one eating grilled fish and the other eating grilled chestnuts, both eating with gusto and satisfied smiles on their faces.
Looking at the sun setting in the west, the two ate and chatted, feeling very happy. Mu Qing even sang happily.
The sound of deer calling spread through the air and spread across half of the grassland. All the animals heard the melodious calls.
As night fell, the surrounding environment became quiet. The two packed up their things and threw the leftover bones into the river, letting the river carry away the residue.
A gentle evening breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness, blowing away the remaining food aroma in the air, leaving only fresh air, making people feel comfortable and pleasant.
Looking at the stars in the sky, the little white deer and the red fox snuggled together, gazing up at the starry sky, and feeling the tranquility of the night.
