Survival male god

Chapter 145 Silly Roe Deer

"Not all moss is edible."

"Like many bryophytes that are exposed on the ground, they are not the foraging choices of most animals."

"What we are looking for is a frigid moss plant that grows on rocky slopes in high-altitude areas. They are extremely cold-resistant and whitish in color. Compared with ordinary moss, this moss tastes more crisp and tender. It is rich in various trace elements and minerals. Not only animals can eat it, but we humans can also eat it."

"Its name is 'Reindeer Moss'!"

“A delicacy made with porcini mushrooms and reindeer moss is the signature dish of a three-star Michelin restaurant in Denmark.”

"I think water lovers in some areas may have eaten moss in the water, but everyone should have never eaten reindeer moss, and neither have I. Has Boss Gu eaten it?"

Gu Jingmo shook his head, "I don't even know what it looks like."

"You'll find out soon enough."

Chen Jing lowered his head to dig the snow, and after a while, he pulled out a handful of gray moss that looked like antlers from the snow pit.

"Look, this is reindeer moss. Not only does it look like antlers, it is also the winter ration of blue sheep, reindeer, roe deer and other herbivores."

"Come and see..."

Gu Jingmo stepped forward, took the reindeer moss from Chen Jing's hand, and observed it carefully.

"Is this really edible?"

Chen Jingjing nodded, pulled a piece directly, and put it in his mouth to chew.

"Not only can it be eaten, but it can also be eaten raw, but it's too cold, and it won't make your stomach feel comfortable after eating it. Let's find more and cook it later."

Not long after, both of them found a lot of reindeer moss, which was enough for a meal, and Chen Jing stopped.

"I'll find some dry wood and light a fire, you wait here for me."

"it is good!"

Naturally, this breakfast couldn't be compared with the previous wild boar, but both of them understood that in the current environment, they were not qualified to be picky, and eating what they had was the secret to survival in the wilderness.

The boiled reindeer moss has become much softer, and the taste is similar to seaweed, without any taste.

After eating, the fire was extinguished, and the two continued to move forward against the wind and snow.

Gu Jingmo was too cold to speak, and just hurried on his way silently.

Chen Jing couldn't help it, he had to communicate with the audience, live broadcast was his job.

"Moss is edible, but it's not a serious food after all."

"I just said that in order to complete the challenge, we must get out of the Daxue Mountain range as soon as possible."

"Ample physical strength is essential, and the most calorie-providing sources are nuts and meat."

"Today's goal is to hunt a goat or roe deer."

"Now there is no material to make a stone spear, and ordinary wood is not very lethal after being sharpened. I can only lend me a dagger."

Chen Jing turned to look at Gu Jingmo.

The latter directly pulled out the dagger and handed it to him.

"How do you plan to use it? Like Li Xunhuan?"

"I don't know how to use a throwing knife. It's definitely not good to throw it at the head. I still need to make a long spear and use the dagger as a spear tip. I'll cut off the branches first."

Chen Jing really doesn't know the skill of flying knives. He knows that there are masters who practice this skill in the folk. Not to mention flying knives, flying needles and flying cards can injure people and things, and they are very powerful.

But to him, it doesn't mean much.

Soon, the branches are cut, the tip of the knife is fixed with a rope, and a temporary spear throwing is completed.

I tried it, and threw it from 20 meters away, and it pierced the trunk of a big tree accurately. The position was slightly off, but it was not a big problem.

As long as you get used to the weight of the flying spear, you can adjust it quickly.

Gu Jingmo asked a question that everyone was more concerned about.

"In this kind of ice and snow, it's not easy to find prey. Do you have any good methods?"

Chen Jing shook his head.

"Compared with animals in the natural world, humans have no advantage in hunting. They can rely on their extremely developed senses of smell, touch, hearing, and vision to perceive the existence of prey."

"Human beings are much more difficult. There are very few things we can rely on, only two."

"One is experience, and the other is patience."

"You need to keep an eye out for teeth marks on the trees, if the shoots of some shrubs have been eaten, and if there are any animal footprints in the snow."

"These traces can help us determine whether there is prey nearby."

"Once you have obtained enough information, the next thing you have to do is to wait. Patience is the trump card of a hunter, even if you have to wait a whole day for it."

"By the way, do you have a telescope?"

Gu Jingmo shook his head, his dark face was full of helplessness.

"A lot of my equipment was lost during the exploration."

"Such as climbing picks, safety ropes, including binoculars and thermal equipment, when the physical condition is not good, those things are a heavy burden."

Chen Jing nodded slightly.

"It's understandable, that's okay, let's go, go to a place with a lower altitude, where it is possible to find traces of wild deer and wild sheep."

……

Three hours later, with the help of hunting experts, Chen Jing finally found the footprints left by the roe deer in a flat mountain forest.

They are disorganized, like bullet holes, densely covered in the forest snow, different in size, but similar in shape.

This is a group of roe deer, more than three in number, most likely a small group.

"Roe deer is an animal belonging to the genus Roe deer in the deer family. Among wild deer species, they have a large number. Compared with other species, such as elk, sika deer, white-lipped deer, etc., they are much more common, and they do not belong to the ranks of vulnerable protected animals."

"We can find roe deer in most of the forested wilderness."

"This kind of animal is particularly bold. Sometimes when the enemy approaches, they still jump around leisurely and leisurely, which is why they are called "silly roe deer"."

"As long as I can get within 30 meters of it, it's not difficult to get it."

"It's just that this is not an excellent place for hunting. Once you choose the wrong place, it will be a waste of time."

"We need to go to the woodland with denser bushes, where they will appear, and it will also help us hide."

"go!"

Chen Jing continued to follow the footprints left by the roe deer.

Gu Jingmo on the side was very surprised. Many times it seemed that the footprints had been broken, but after a while, Chen Jing was always able to find the correct tracking direction.

In fact, this is the effect of hunting specialization. In the former's field of vision, there are intricate markings of green arrows on the white snow.

After a little analysis and tracing, it is not difficult to determine the whereabouts of the roe deer.

In fact, Chen Jing can do it himself, but with the blessing of system specialization, the efficiency of doing things has been increased by at least three times.

After five o'clock in the afternoon, the winter evening came as promised. This is the time for herbivores in the snow to forage.

The two cats were in the snow pit, Gu Jingmo was shivering from the cold, while Chen Jing remained motionless.

He wears the title of a master-level skier, has a cold-dispelling aura, and his cold resistance has increased by 30.00%. In the temperature of a few degrees below zero, the body temperature is actually a few degrees higher. Coupled with his excellent physique, he does not feel how cold it is at all.

Unless the temperature drops to minus one or twenty degrees, or minus forty or fifty degrees near the Arctic Circle in Siberia, in that extreme environment, it is estimated that this title will not be of much use.

"Hiss~ It's really cold!"

Gu Jingmo couldn't bear it any longer. She didn't expect that she would stay in Qinling for such a long time. She thought that she could complete the task in at most two weeks. However, from mid-November to now, it is already the end of December.

The Qinling Mountains are completely covered by ice and snow, and the cold air flow at the northern foot is a major test for all creatures on the mountain.

Chen Jing turned his head and saw that Gu Jingmo's lips had turned purple from the cold. He hesitated for a moment, and moved his body a little closer, thinking that the two of them might be able to dispel some of the cold by getting closer.

Unexpectedly, Gu Jingmo directly took off the backpack on his back, opened his arms, and slipped into his arms.

Fortunately, the camera was facing the snow all the time, otherwise if this scene was seen by the audience, it would inevitably be another booing.

In this environment, there is only instinct left in the human body, and eating, drinking and keeping warm are the first-level needs, so the two of them have no sense of beauty in their hearts, they just want to survive.

Time passed bit by bit, and it was getting late.

Chen Jing's arms were extremely warm, and the heat kept rising. Just when Gu Jingmo was sleepy and about to fall asleep, she suddenly noticed a light behind her, and when she came back to her senses, the former had already rushed out with a throwing spear.

In the snow forest, a large group of wild roe deer are nibbling on the young shoots of the bushes, and sometimes they lower their heads to rummage in the snow. They don't realize that the danger has come.

On the low arborvitae tree, the snow slid down, and a black and yellow figure with dense patterns ran close to the ground, rushing towards the roe deer like lightning.

It was a vigorous leopard, and it had the same goal as Chen Jing.

boom!
A roe deer was overturned by a leopard, causing large snowflakes, and the sound from its throat was like the braying of a donkey.

The aorta of the roe deer's neck was bitten off by the sharp leopard teeth, and the scalding blood immediately soaked into the ice and snow.

Only then did the rest of the roe deer come back to their senses, and stared at their dead companion for a long time before slowly changing positions and continuing to eat the bushes on the ground.

"Good skill!"

Chen Jing, who was also running, praised him sincerely.

It took no more than ten seconds for the leopard to fly out of the tree, step on the snow to make a surprise attack, and successfully capture the target.

All the process was watched by Chen Jing and the audience.

It was not an adult leopard, it looked small, its body hadn't fully grown, and its childishness was still intact, but it had already demonstrated its powerful hunting skills.

It caught a young roe deer, also very young.

Chen Jing's target was the biggest one among the group of roe deer.

Swish!
The short spear flew through the air, and in an instant, only a neigh was heard, and the tallest roe deer fell to the ground.

The spear pierced through its neck, half of the twenty-centimeter-long blade was sunk into the snow, which was enough to show how deadly Chen Jing's flying throw was.

"EZ!"

"Boss Gu, we have some meat to eat, haha..."

Chen Jing's laughter echoed in the forest, and the leopard sank into the forest with the little roe deer in its mouth. Before leaving, it didn't forget to stare at Chen Jing.

At this time, it may be lamenting the horror of that kind of upright walking animal.

It didn't even understand why the other party just waved its forelegs, and the roe deer, which looked so strong, just fell down like that, but it knew one thing, it must not provoke the other party.

The law of the jungle is the law of the jungle that never changes.
