Great Wilderness Alchemist

Chapter 14, Forest Adventure

In the afternoon, Fairy still carried two baskets to the forest to pick fruit.However, the leftover nuts picked up by her in the morning have disappeared, leaving only the wreckage of the nut shells in the open space.

Fairy didn't care too much, she used the "fruit smasher" to hit the fruits on the tree in the same way, and waited until the two baskets were full, and then looked at the few sparse ones left on the tree.Xian Ling had a very conscientious choice to stop.

Passing the creek again with two baskets in hand, the fairy put the baskets woven at noon into it, thinking, come back tomorrow to see how the harvest is.Little did they know, after she left, a little white mink climbed down from the tree.It walked to the fish basket curiously, and then pulled the fish basket up with its paws.

It first studied the fish basket curiously, only to find that there was actually a bouncing little fish in the fish basket. The little mink was immediately excited, pulled out the small fish with its claws, and ate it in one bite.

The delicacy of the little fish captured it immediately, and its excited beard was raised, and when it looked at the fish basket on the shore again, its eyes became bright.

The fairy made half of the newly harvested fruit into jam (of course, it failed to trigger the spiritual food), and cut the half into slices to dry on the large stone slab in the yard, ready to be dried.

This stone slab was probably used by women to dry medicine, and it exudes an extremely strong medicinal fragrance.Fairy hasn't been able to find a suitable material for making a dustpan, so she can only reluctantly post it here first. After she finds bamboo, she can start making small household props.

After processing the fruit, the fairy took a nap for a while, and when the sun outside was not so strong, she put on her basket, bowed her back and walked towards the Reed Lake.

It was agreed in the morning that we are going to hunt wild ducks, just to see how her attack power is.Although I tried it on the civet cat in the morning, the lethality is definitely different when unarmed and armed.

The reed lake is right in front of the cabin, and the fairy can reach it after walking a few hundred meters. However, there are not many ducks on the lake today, only three or two scattered.

Since he chose to hunt wild ducks, it was impossible for the fairy to just go up with a bow like this.Leaving aside whether her swimming skills are good or not, by the time she swims past with a humming hum, the duck will have already run away. (Well, a good bow and arrow, played by Caibi's fairy into melee combat)
Of course, the main reason is that Fairy doesn't want to waste her arrows. Her arrow technique is so poor that it's hard to retrieve it when she shoots it into the water.
So the fairy carefully got into the reeds with a basket on his shoulders.I saw that she chose a hidden location, then took out tools from the basket, squatted on the ground and used the geographical location to start making traps.

After a while, a simple lasso trap was formed in her hand.Fairy put the leftover crab shell slag in the lasso, and then carefully retreated to a distance to start guarding.

The method of making traps was learned by Xianling in a video of survival in the wilderness. She has never practiced it, but the principle is simple. She remembered it after watching it once. Today, she just took it out to practice.

The environment in the reeds is very humid, not to mention a lot of insects, and it is extremely hot and stuffy. After squatting for a while, the fairy was bitten by mosquitoes a lot, but she didn't dare to hit or scratch, for fear that the movement would disturb her. Scares away imminent prey.

I don't know how long I squatted, probably for more than an hour, finally there was movement from the trap in front of me.

The fairy listened carefully, and after confirming that the prey was caught by the lasso, he quickly pushed aside the reed that was in the way.

Running over to see, she was happy.Sure enough, there was a fat duck in the trap with a noose around its neck. It flapped its wings and struggled violently, but it didn't help, the noose would only get tighter and tighter.

Taking advantage of the quacking of the duck, the fairy rushed up and shot it with an arrow.This time she shot right, and immediately saw a big -15 float out of the duck's head.

But it wasn't dead yet, and was even aroused to struggle more violently.Seeing that it was about to break free from the shackles of the rope, the fairy quickly shot another arrow, and the wild duck finally tilted its head and passed out.

Fairy carried the bloody wild duck to the lake to clean it. Maybe it was because she killed the duck too much just now, but now the lake is quiet, not to mention the wild duck and not even a dragonfly.

Xian Ling skillfully disemboweled the wild duck. She didn't throw away the internal organs. She was going to take them home to make natural fertilizer. Duck feathers are also a good thing. After cleaning, boil and sterilize them, and dry them in the sun before storing them.

Why should it be stored?That must be too little!When there is more quantity in the future, I can make myself a down vest. Xianling has not forgotten her experience of being almost frozen to death in the snowy area.

Speaking of the down vest, it seems that she doesn't have any cloth either. Apart from the dead woman, there is no one in this secret realm.It seems that before winter comes, she not only has to store enough food for the winter, but also has to find a way to organize the clothes to keep out the cold.

Looking at the weather and climate, it should be like August and September, and there are still about two months before winter, so she has to act quickly!
Thinking of the coming winter, the fairy's desire to eat delicious food suddenly faded. Compared with the desire for food, survival was obviously more urgent.So Xianling stopped making duck meat at night, but marinated the duck, preparing to make cured duck and save it for winter.

……

In the evening, after the Faerie had finished weaving the rope, she made herself a bed in the kitchen, a bed of dried reeds and rushes.

Although it looks a little sloppy, it is very comfortable to lie on. After all, the rush is soft and slender, and it smells good after drying.In short, Xianling had the most comfortable sleep since coming to another world.

As a result of being too comfortable, Fairy got up late the next day for an unprecedented time, and she was woken up by the immature quacking of ducklings in the room.The first reaction when I opened my eyes was to go to the bedside to touch the phone, but instead of the phone, I touched the ash in my hand, and the fairy immediately woke up in fright.

Hey, I almost forgot, she traveled through time, and now she is in a strange world.

Xian Ling moved her stiff body and got up from the bed.After cleaning his teeth with a small amount of salt dipped in a reed ear, Xianling carried the kitchen garbage accumulated for two days to the woods behind the cabin.

She has piled up two piles of natural manure in the grove, and today she is going to pile up the third pile.Anyway, there is never too much natural fat, and it will not expire if left alone.

After composting, Fairy cleaned the clay pot and picked a lot of wild vegetables by the way.Most of the wild vegetables are old now, and some are even in bloom. Xianling picks and picks half a jar and returns home relatively fresh.

Of course, it is impossible to continue eating wild vegetables for breakfast. Even if the fairy is not picky eaters, she would still vomit after eating wild vegetables for several days in a row. These wild vegetables were prepared for the duckling.

The duck is still young, and the wild vegetables need to be processed before they can be fed to it.So Fairy herself started chopping wild vegetables in the kitchen before she had breakfast.For balanced nutrition, she even took several snails and mixed them in. Sure enough, the ducklings ate very happily.

However, ducks are too good at pulling, right?Xian Ling frowned at the duck droppings in the cage, and moved the duckling to the yard in disgust.Reluctantly built a shed for the duckling with reed stalks, the fairy thought, the livestock shed must be built without delay.

……

Xianling's breakfast is a bowl of boiled snails mixed with jam.To be honest, as a southerner who loves to eat sweets, the taste of this snail is really not very good. Even if Xianling is afraid of spicy food, he has to admit that if he wants to taste delicious and get rid of the earthy smell, he still needs onion, ginger and garlic Combine with chilli oil.

Reluctantly destroying the breakfast, Xianling ground the snail shells into powder and put them in a jar, saving the ducklings for calcium supplementation.

Xian Ling glanced at the woman in the next room as if she was doing her daily routine.Finding that her body was still as fresh and tender as before, there was no corpse change, and there was no weird smell, so she closed the door again with peace of mind.

Her main task today is to go to the forest to collect firewood. After all, winter is coming, and the more firewood the better.As for the second task, which is to find food, only jam will definitely not work. If you find the staple food early, you will feel at ease.

So Xianling packed up her things, put on the straw hat she made last night and went out.The new straw hat is woven with sun-dried rush grass. The hat looks small and fresh, and the comfort is also very good. In short, the fairy likes it very much.

Today's fairies are heading in the other direction of the forest. There is no shortage of firewood in the autumn forest, and there are dead branches and leaves everywhere.The fairy picked up all the dead branches and piled them together, waiting to come back to pick them up on the return journey.

It took a total of three piles of fairies before she stopped. She straddled the basket and prepared to go to a deeper place.

The more you go in, the taller the trees are, and the more overbearing the plants are, almost covering all the places that can spread tightly.The fallen leaves on the ground have also been piled up in several layers, the lower ones are already rotten, and the upper ones are creaking when stepped on.

The calls of various animals could be heard from time to time, and there were movements passing by the trees from time to time.With a bow on her shoulder and a kitchen knife in her hand, Xianling wasn't too scared, so she boldly groped forward.

There is no road in the unexplored forest, and the bushes grow unreasonably. After cleaning it with a kitchen knife for a while, the fairy had to choose to give up.It's just too difficult to open the way.

She found a random place nearby and started exploring.

What is the most encountered?It is really a mushroom, and there are various colors. The fairy only hates why he didn't buy a book of mushrooms and read it before crossing.

Secondly, there were some small berries that she didn't know. The fairy didn't dare to pick them casually, and only picked some that had been pecked by birds.

One of the berries was a bit like a raspberry. The fairy tasted it, and it tasted sour and sweet. Although it was not as good as the berry, it was still a rare delicacy.

It didn't take long for the faeries to discover something new besides berries.A huge vine full of kiwis!

By the way, that fluffy, green fruit should be kiwi, right?
Xianling is a little uncertain, because it looks a little different from Blue Star's kiwi fruit.But when Faerie saw a colorful little monkey crawling towards the kiwi vine, she was sure it was edible.

Xian Ling picked up the kitchen knife and was about to go forward to pick it up. The next second, the little monkey was suddenly blown away by a vine without warning.

Fairy:! ! !
The little monkey let out a scream, and then quickly climbed up the tree with its tail between its legs under the dazed sight of the fairy.

Fairy: What is this?It's still motivating?Are the plants fine?
She shuddered.No, you can't stay here for long!The dying fairy clenched the kitchen knife in his hand and chose to retreat.

Just retreated a few meters away, the accident happened again.All I could hear was a crackling sound from behind.Xian Ling looked back, and saw the colorful monkey who attacked her last time hugged her child and took revenge on the kiwi vine.

The monkey stretched out its long sharp claws and kept scratching the vines waving in front of it. After a while, the leaves of the vines fell to the ground.

The monkey opened its mouth full of fangs and hecked towards the vines.In the next second, a kiwi detached from the vine, just like a sci-fi movie, the kiwi grew countless spikes against the wind, and then hit the colorful monkey's head with a snap.

The monkey screamed to protect the child from being smashed, it exploded in anger, the nails of its ten fingers grew longer, and then cut the vine drawn in front of it into two pieces.The broken vine fell to the ground and was still twisting like a snake, and then turned yellow again the moment the fairy swallowed his saliva.

My mother, fortunately, when she met this monkey last time, she didn't try to provoke her, otherwise she would end up like this vine.Thinking of his head being separated into two parts, Xianling shuddered, stopped watching the excitement, and ran forward with a kitchen knife and a basket.

After running for an unknown amount of time, the only T-shirt on Fairy's body was already torn to pieces by thorns and bushes. She suddenly heard the sound of explosions in the distance.

Then "bang bang bang", like countless grenades exploding, the branches and leaves of the trees around her shook violently, and the air seemed to be filled with the sweet smell of fruit.

Fairy's heart beat uncontrollably. She didn't know exactly what happened, but she was sure that if she hadn't decided to evacuate just now, she would have been blown to a pulp by the explosion.

After the explosive running, the stamina is exhausted.Xianling sat on a giant tree root and panted heavily. After a long time, the movement over there finally stopped. Xianling listened carefully for a while, and indeed there was no other sound.

She struggled ideologically on the spot, but finally chose to touch it quietly.

She didn't know what she was looking forward to. According to the plot in the movie, there must be loopholes to pick up after the war.

Xian Ling cautiously groped to the vicinity of the kiwi vine, and was shocked by the tragic scene in front of him.

I saw crooked trees everywhere, as well as exploded fruits, and green juice splashed all over the ground.

The fairy was afraid that the juice would be poisonous, so he didn't dare to step into the battlefield at will.From a distance, she saw the dying monkey hugging its child and licking its fur.Its child was already dead, half of its head was blown off, and it was not much better, its colorful fur was covered with green juice, and it was also full of white needles.

awful!It is too miserable!Why can't she think about messing with the vines that have become spirits?

The fairy cast a sympathetic look at the colorful monkey.The colorful monkey turned its head with a feeling, and then met the sympathetic gaze of the fairy. It made a miserable sound at the fairy, and then closed its eyes forever.

Fairy: ...
