Chapter 37: Full load

Gu Xiaowan suppressed his excitement and came to the water pool, pulling aside the water weeds on the edge of the water pool, and under the green water weeds, a plump fish was swimming between the water weeds.
"Great!" Gu Xiaowan whispered.
If you can catch a fish and go back, cook a fish soup for your younger brothers and sisters to make up for!
Gu Xiaowan thought fast and acted faster. After looking at the deep water pool, she was in trouble again. This fish can be seen but can't be caught. What can I do.
Gu Xiaowan looked at the tools in her hand, took a rope to tie a big rock, and then threw it into the deep pool. The rope fell under the gravity of the big rock. Gu Xiaowan pulled this end of the rope until the rope was fast. No, the big rocks don't seem to reach the bottom of the lake.
This pool is so deep. Gu Xiaowan sighed from the bottom of her heart, and pulled the rope up again. Looking at the bottom of this unknown depth in a daze.
"Sister, what were you just doing?" Gu Ningan asked curiously. Gu Xiaowan tied a piece of stone with a rope, threw it in, and pulled it out again. What was it doing?
"I'm measuring how deep the bottom of the pool is!" Gu Xiaowan replied: "The bottom of the pool is really unfathomable when you enter such a long rope. We don’t know how to swim when we get to this pool. If we fall, we will be dead."
Gu Xiaowan sighed for a while, hey, I don't know why, she actually had a sense of fear for the water, and her back was cold for no reason. It is estimated that the original owner died by drowning. She thought to herself.
"What is swimming?" Gu Ning'an blinked and asked curiously.
Gu Xiaowan was embarrassed, how to bring in modern words.
"Swimming is teal water."
"Huh?" Gu Ningan suspiciously said, "Sister, you know how to tease water. You are in our village, and the tea water is one of the best. Many children in our village can't compare to you! You still teach this summer. Why are my brother and I drinking water?"
Gu Xiaowan said, knowing how to swim? Wasn't he drowned when he was pushed down by Gu Xintao?
"Sister, you are good at teasing water!" Gu Ning'an saw Gu Xiaowan's disbelief, thinking that he was afraid of being pushed into the river last time, and quickly enlightened: "Sister, you fell into the river last time. , Because Gu Xintao started too heavy and beat you up, plus the cotton-padded jacket that made you feel heavy as soon as the water got in, so you didn’t climb up for a while at that time, and then you took off your outer clothes. I swam to the shore by myself. Then I fainted. It was my brother and I who found you, and then carried you home."
When Gu Xiaowan heard this, she understood. It was not drowned, it was frozen to death. In the river in the twelfth lunar month, I was soggy and had no clothes on. I finally climbed up to the shore. It was cold and tired. I guess I passed out from the cold, and then died of freezing.
Gu Xiaowan pouted her lips, really sad!
However, Gu Xiaowan immediately became happy, knowing that she still has such a skill, which is quite good.

Gu Xiaowan glanced at this deep pool. The current was turbulent and deep, and it was really hard to catch fish. There is no other way but to give up. See if you can think of a better way, come back.
Gu Xiaowan had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​making fish soup, and took Gu Ning'an back and forth to leave.
The two people followed the road signs marked on the trees, and walked out unimpeded. When they came to the dense forest, Gu Xiaowan took out the ginseng in the basket and put it in his arms. Later, they must pick up some firewood. One of those who went back was afraid of crushing the ginseng. The most important thing was that if it was discovered by the villagers, it would be incredible.
The two people searched for so long before they found such a plant. If the people in the village knew that the two children who were only six or seven or eight years old would have no risk in entering the mountains, they would have nothing to do, and they would have picked up a ginseng , Everyone will flock to the mountain.
As many people enter the mountain, some good things will be left behind. When the time comes, they want to find something good in the mountains, it must be more difficult than climbing.
Don't blame Gu Xiaowan for being selfish. If a person can't even solve his own food and clothing problem, talk about saving the people of Liming, talk about being selfless, those are nonsense.
Gu Xiaowan is not so hypocritical. If it were really so generous, it would be their family who starved to death. Gu Xiaowan's relationship with this point is very clear, and the analysis is clear.
Gu Xiaowan and Gu Ning'an continued to search for wild radishes in the open space. Most of this open space was already yellow, but some wild radishes were still green and verdant. However, due to the thickness of weeds, some wild radish leaves only show small green tips.
The two people bowed their waists carefully looking for wild radishes in the clearing. After a while, they filled the basket again. Gu Xiaowan only felt her waist a little sore.
He straightened up and slapped his waist and looked at the sky above his head.
The warm winter sun, the blue and pure blue sky, the endless horizon, and the floating white clouds, this is only a thousand years ago can you see such a clean and pure blue sky and white clouds.
Gu Xiaowan sighed inwardly. Inhaling slightly, only to feel that the air is incredibly fragrant, and the fragrant smells of sweetness.
Gu Xiaowan said: "Ning'an, let's go back."
Looking at the sky, it should be past 2 o'clock in the afternoon at this time, and I don't know what the two little children at home are doing or whether they have eaten or not. Thinking of eating, Gu Xiaowan was so busy all morning, she really felt a little hungry.
Gu Ning'an even more, his stomach screamed in despair. Gu Xiaowan heard it and looked at Gu Ning'an jokingly.
Gu Ning'an blushed and touched his head with embarrassment.
"Let's go back!" Gu Xiaowan suggested, and then she hugged a large bundle of dry weeds and covered the top of the basket so that even if someone saw it, they didn't know what was inside.
Gu Ning'an also learned everything, and put a lot of dry weeds into the basket. When they were sure that they couldn't see what was inside the basket from the outside, they carried the basket and walked out of the mountain together, holding hands. go with.
