Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 1188 Bonfire Party
The venison provided by the restaurant in Weijianbao is red deer meat, which is usually cooked by roasting, but can also be stewed in a pot. Han Li did not trust the skills of the chefs here, so he chose roasted venison.

If you sprinkle a little black pepper and salt on the roasted venison and it is cooked properly, it will taste better than the venison stewed by English chefs.

Han Li ate two large pieces of venison with beer. After learning the source of the venison from the waiter, he went back to the hotel to rest.

The next day, Han Li did not check out after breakfast. He drove the RV around Weijian Fort and admired the surrounding scenery.

There are many mountains around Wilfrid Castle. In the distance, you can see Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in England. It attracts many people to go mountain climbing every year to prove that they have conquered the highest peak in the country.

Han Li learned from the information that in terms of altitude alone, the Dongling Mountain, Dahaituo Mountain, Wuling Mountain and Xiaowutai Mountain in Mentougou around Sijiu City are far higher than Ben Nevis.

However, due to its special geographical factors, Ben Nevis, which is not high in altitude, has snow on the top all year round, is covered by dark clouds for more than 300 days a year, and has an annual precipitation of more than 4300 mm.

The weather after entering the mountains is even more changeable. It has happened that there have been more than ten or twenty rains in one day. Sometimes it is like a competition to put on and take off raincoats.

This weird weather might be the reason why many hikers and climbers want to climb it?

After driving around the area, Han Li came to a slaughterhouse that provided venison to the restaurants and residents of Weijianbao.

Here Han Li bought a lot of deer fetuses, deer penises, deer tails and deer tendons at the price of scrap.

Except for the deer penis which is a little more expensive, the others are basically very cheap.

Just when Han Li was wondering why there were no antlers here, the slaughterhouse owner gave him a processed eight-pronged antler specimen to thank Han Li for purchasing the goods he had been waiting for for a long time.

Han Li took it without saying a word. While the workers were loading things onto the truck, he chatted with the boss about the deer antlers.

Only then did Han Li understand why he didn't see any deer antlers here. It was all because the foreigners didn't know the value of them.

Although in ancient times the red deer was endowed by the Scottish people with the symbol of authority, power, elegance and mystery, it even became a symbol of royal power for a time.

Therefore, the Scottish people prefer deer antlers, but they only value antlers with eight or more prongs.

There is always a demand for those eight-pronged antlers with good quality. If you come across antlers with ten or twelve prongs, please ask the master to handle them well. Those are items that can be put up for auction and attract bidding from powerful and wealthy people.

However, antlers with less than eight prongs are basically ignored, even tourists who come here rarely choose antlers with less than eight prongs.

In the absence of a market outside, over time the slaughterhouse will only keep antlers with eight or more prongs.

Deer antlers are very difficult to handle and take up a lot of space, and it takes a lot of effort to dig a hole and bury them.

The slaughterhouse owner didn't want to put in the effort himself, nor did he want to pay someone to do it.

Therefore, he pulled all the antlers with less than eight forks far away from the town and threw them into a ravine.

When Han Li heard this, he cursed in his heart what a waste of resources. These deer antlers were not only the main ingredient for making deer antler cream, but could also be used in the skin-rejuvenating cream that Han Li prepared for his wives.

Han Li learned the approximate location of the ravine from the slaughterhouse owner in a roundabout way, and asked for two freshly slaughtered sika deer before driving away in the RV.

After Han Li left the slaughterhouse, he directly put all these things into the decomposition space. If he had time, he would turn all these things into supplements for his family.

Fort Wisconsin is not a big place, but it has three whiskey distilleries.

Han Li visited all three distilleries in the morning and bought two large barrels of whiskey and fifteen boxes of bottled whiskey from each distillery because they could not fit in the RV.

After buying the wine, it was almost time for lunch. Han Li did not go to the restaurant he had been to last night. Instead, he chose a restaurant with more out-of-town tourists to eat at.

Because Han Li then faces two choices, one is to continue north along the A82 highway.

Another option is to go west from Wisconsin, take the secondary road to Mallaig, a port town on the west coast of Scotland, and take a ferry to Skye.

Because there is only a ferry from Scotland to Skye Island at present, the Skye Bridge connecting the two places will not be completed and opened to traffic until 95. At this time, I am afraid that the project has not even been approved.

Also, the A82 highway that Han Li took when heading north is close to the western coastline of Scotland.

When returning to the city, Han Li planned to go back along the A83 highway along the east coast line. This way he could avoid taking repetitive routes and see more different scenery.

Of course, Han Li can also choose to go to Sky Island first, and then follow the originally planned route after returning.

However, Han Li understood one thing during these days of traveling. Maybe the Scottish Highlands would become better if they invested more money in tourism in the future, but the current era was really bad. First of all, this season was not suitable for traveling, and the road conditions along the way were very bad, and the various supporting facilities could not keep up.

The most important thing is that many nice places are currently under the jurisdiction of the Royal English Army. Those preserved and repaired castles are private venues, and it is impossible to go in for a visit or a tour.

That was why Han Li was full of doubts about the rumors about the so-called Sky Island. He chose to eat in a restaurant with many tourists in the morning because he wanted to find out about the situation there.

The majority of these tourists were climbers coming to climb Ben Nevis, but Han Li was blessed by luck after all, and while eating, he actually found a person who had just returned from Skye Island among them.

A glass of beer opened the other person's mouth, but this person told Han Li that most of Sky Island is swampland, which is not suitable for pasture cultivation and can only be used for grazing. Therefore, it has always been famous for its desolation and barrenness.

However, the island is often shrouded in clouds and mist, and the sunlight refracts into ever-changing clouds, which is very beautiful.

Another thing is the weather on Sky Island. If you are unlucky, you can feel the changes of four seasons there in one day.

The local rainfall is even more speechless. It may be sunny one second and rain heavily the next. Sometimes it may rain heavily on a sunny day.

Therefore, Sky Island has attracted many photography enthusiasts to visit the island to take pictures. It is okay for ordinary people to go to the island to experience nature, but the strong winds and changeable weather there will definitely give you an unforgettable experience.

In addition, there are currently only a few very narrow roads between the villages and towns on Skye Island, which are so narrow that two cars can only find slightly wider places when passing each other.

As for other places, they are all gravel and muddy roads, so you need to be mentally prepared if you want to drive there.

Because the road is difficult to travel, many people who cannot return to the village in time can only pray to encounter a farmhouse or ranch cabin, otherwise what awaits them will be an unforgettable night.

When Han Li heard about the current situation of Sky Island, he decided not to go there this time.

His main purpose this time was to enjoy himself, not to suffer. Even if he had a golden finger and a motorhome so he wouldn't suffer, he was unwilling to go to a place where he would feel cramped even if he had to rush.

But Han Li still had a little regret in his heart, but he comforted himself in the end.

"Sky Island is just a thought I left behind in England and Scotland. When I can travel around the world at will, I'll have an excuse to revisit it."

Han Li made up his mind, and after lunch he went back to the hotel to drink tea and read.

However, after Han Li arrived at the hotel, he opened the window of the room and released the Saker Falcon, Peregrine Falcon, Crow, and Snowy Owl, letting them try to find the valley where the slaughterhouse owner had thrown the antlers.

Don't you want to go to Weijianbao to see those scenic spots? Han Li's answer was no.

Although it didn't snow or rain today, the sky was gloomy, making people feel very uncomfortable.

Besides, there is really nothing to see in Weijian Fort. Han Li can see the scenery by the lake while sitting in his hotel room.

The fortress built by King Weijian III is now in ruins. What's the point of going to see a pile of broken stones?
Can we go see the steam train? Almost all those who have visited the Scottish Highlands in later generations have described the photos of the steam train.

Steam locomotive? Han Li could only laugh at this. The country is now full of steam locomotives.

Moreover, Han Li, who had experienced it personally, did not understand why those people would say all kinds of good things about others once they arrived abroad.

Let’s not talk about the food. The food here can only maintain Han Li’s vital signs.

In terms of scenery and landscape, if the scenery created by the special area of ​​Mount Nevis is worth mentioning, why can those steam locomotives that are almost eliminated in the country become something they show off?

Given the birds’ flying speed and their sharp eyesight, they returned around 3:00 p.m.

After Han Li put them away, he continued to drink tea and read until night fell. After having a simple meal in the hotel restaurant, he went out to the street.

Because when Han Li was having lunch in the morning, he heard that there would be a bonfire party by the lake tonight with the coldest wind and the strongest wine.

Everyone can participate, but each person needs to pay a fee of ten pounds.

Han Li didn't care about money. Ten British coins were nothing to him.

It doesn’t matter whether there is an encounter by chance or not. Han Li is not at the point where he has to experience the local customs every time he goes to a place.

The important thing is that Han Li wants to experience this bonfire party. It is said that the style of this party comes from the Viking pirate era.
