"Li Ming, what are you doing?" Chu Xiyue asked after seeing Li Ming's behavior.
"Check if there are any snakes." Li Ming turned around and explained.
"Ah! Is there a snake?" Chu Xiyue was startled when she heard this. She took two steps back and looked around with slightly wary eyes.
"There are no snakes, don't worry." Li Ming chuckled.
"Oh! That's good." Chu Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief, but she was very afraid of snakes.
"Li Ming, why did you bring us here? There doesn't seem to be anything special here." Leng Qianning took a look at the surrounding environment and found that there seemed to be nothing else here except some wormwood.
"Of course the purpose of bringing you here is this. After drying the wormwood, you can spread it on the ground and use it as a mattress. It will be more comfortable to sleep on." Li Ming picked some wormwood and held it in his hand.
Leng Qianning and the others explained.
When Leng Qianning and Chu Xiyue heard this, they immediately understood that Li Ming's goal was wormwood, and what they had to do now was to help pick wormwood.
"Li Ming, let me help." Seeing this, Chu Xiyue was the first to speak.
Although Leng Qianning was a little slow, she still joined in the action of picking wormwood.
The wormwood is half waist high and not easy to pick, but Li Ming has a dagger, so he can pick it much faster.
Leng Qianning and Chu Xiyue had never done this kind of thing before, and they had to bend over. They were immediately exhausted and sweating on their faces, so they could only support their waists with one hand and wipe their faces with the other.
of sweat.
But when the two women saw Li Ming bending down to harvest wormwood, his movements were very smooth without any pause, they felt a little weird.
Li Ming has experienced this kind of thing. When he was a child, he planted rice seedlings in the rice fields, and his waist strength was already very strong.
What's more, how can a man say that his waist is not good?
Li Ming used a dagger to harvest a large piece of wormwood, but it all fell to the ground. He had no time to collect it and continued to harvest other wormwood.
Although Leng Qianning and Chu Xiyue are not very good at picking wormwood, they still feel no pressure at all when collecting wormwood on the ground.
Therefore, Li Ming harvested in the front, while Leng Qianning and Chu Xiyue were responsible for collecting them in the back and then stacking them together.
Half an hour later, Li Ming had harvested a large area of wormwood in front of him, but his fingers were bleeding because there were some prickly grass growing among the wormwood, and he was accidentally scratched.
The finger was broken, it was just a small injury. Li Ming didn't care at all on his face, he just wanted to find something to plug the wound.
But at this moment, Chu Xiyue and Leng Qianning saw that Li Ming was injured. They stepped forward anxiously and grabbed Li Ming's hand. They felt heartbroken when they saw the blood flowing out of his fingers.
Seeing this, Chu Xiyue pulled Li's hand over and put her fingers into her mouth.
Although Chu Xiyue didn't quite understand what effect this would have, she thought of how it was played in TV dramas, so she took action immediately.
Leng Qianning looked at this scene and was stunned for a moment. Then she couldn't help biting her lips, with a trace of unwillingness flashing in her eyes.
Li Ming was a little confused. Looking at Chu Xiyue holding his finger in her mouth, he could still feel a trace of pain, but now it seemed to have disappeared.
Chu Xiyue raised her head slightly, with a pair of pure and flawless beautiful eyes with a hint of shyness, her red and small lips sucked Li Ming's fingers, and touched the wound slightly with the tip of her tongue, as if she wanted to disinfect Li Ming.
Li Ming could feel the warmth and moisture, the pain from the wound disappeared, and he slowly enjoyed it, with a subtle feeling in his heart.
There seemed to be something wrong with the atmosphere in the air, so Leng Qianning immediately said: "Okay! It's useless if you do this, and it can't be disinfected..."
Upon hearing this, Chu Xiyue slowly took Li Ming's finger out of his mouth. The finger was moistened by saliva and now became extremely smooth. The wound had stopped bleeding, and it still exuded a faint fragrance.
Chu Xiyue's face turned red and she was feeling a little shy. At this moment, Leng Qianning suddenly pulled Li Ming's hand over and wiped the saliva on it with her own clothes.
"The saliva is so dirty, let me wipe it off for you." Leng Qianning said while wiping off Chu Xiyue's saliva.
When Chu Xiyue heard this, she immediately glanced at Leng Qianning angrily, wondering if her saliva was thirsty or dirty.
Li Ming also wanted to refute Leng Qianning. After all, when kissing, saliva is eaten, so how can the saliva be dirty?
Although he thought so in his heart, he did not participate in the conflict between the two.
Li Ming looked back and saw that the wormwood had been placed together and piled high, reaching his knees.
There may seem to be a lot of wormwood, but after drying, there won't be so much. After all, the water will be lost.
Li Ming decided to harvest some more wormwood, and went back in about half an hour. However, the wormwood in front of him seemed to be not enough, so he spent about ten minutes inside. After harvesting the wormwood here, he was ready to replace it.
Continue to harvest at the next place.
There is already a lot of wormwood piled nearby, and it is inconvenient to take it away. If you carry it around, each person can only take a few.
Li Ming searched around, and Huangtian paid off. He actually found some vines.
It's just that these vines are very strong and it's very troublesome to pull them off. But Li Ming has a dagger, so it's easy for Li Ming.
Use the dagger to split the vines, then take the vines back to the wormwood, and then tie them up with the vines.
Chu Xiyue and Leng Qianning watched on the sidelines. After Li Ming tied up the wormwood, they wanted to help pick it up.
But after trying it, they found that it was actually very heavy. After all, this was a large piece of wormwood, and it was difficult for them to lift it alone.
But it was impossible for the two of them to cooperate, so Li Ming could only hold it and then switch to another place.
After arriving at another place, Li Ming placed the bundled wormwood on the ground and continued to harvest the wormwood.
The wormwood here only reaches the knees, but it is enough.
If the length is not enough, make up the amount.
Of course it doesn't seem to work well elsewhere.
It took about half an hour to harvest a large amount of wormwood. Even though Li Ming was in good physical condition, he was still sweating profusely and felt a slight backache.
Li Ming stood up and felt relieved. He turned around and saw Chu Xiyue and Leng Qianning piling wormwood together.
Li Ming took a look at the mugwort and felt that it was almost ready, so he put away the dagger, then picked up the untied mugwort, and said to the two women: "You are responsible for taking this, it is more convenient."
The bundle was really easy to carry, but the weight was obviously very heavy, and it was obviously not enough for them alone.
The reason why Li Ming left it to them was to try to ease the relationship between them.
