Relying on the system of criticizing people to become a god in farming literature

Chapter 200 Hunting Pheasants

Cheng Yao went to bed early the night before, so she woke up early the next morning.

She still had to go up the mountain today, but the workload was larger than the previous two days.

Before falling asleep last night, she exchanged a medical book in the system mall.

Learning exquisite medical skills does not happen overnight, but she can start with the simple parts.

For example, follow the example of a gourd and a scoop, find some medicinal materials based on medical books, and prepare some medicinal powder sachets that can repel snakes and insects.

Angelica dahurica, clove, realgar, mugwort leaves, patchouli, borneol, atractylodes, artemisia, cinnamon.

Grind the above medicinal materials into powder and mix them into a sachet.

Among them, realgar and mugwort leaves can repel mosquitoes.

Angelica dahurica, cloves, patchouli, atractylodes, artemisia, cinnamon, etc. can enhance fragrance.

Borneol adds a cooling sensation to the sachet.

The recipe can also be adjusted according to personal physique and needs.

For example, people with qi-deficient constitution can add qi-tonifying herbs such as ginseng and astragalus, and people with damp-heat constitution can add heat-clearing and damp-removing herbs such as Phellodendron and Coptidis.

Each medicinal material is equipped with detailed illustrations. Cheng Yao has a good eye and wants to try to find it.

Anyway, there are resources all over the mountains and plains waiting for her to explore.

If you are lucky when looking for medicinal materials, it would be even better if you can hunt a pheasant along the way.

After two days of vegetarianism, Cheng Yao felt like drinking chicken soup.

After arranging the things in the tent and closing the doors and windows, Cheng Yao put on her backpack and walked towards the mountain.

With yesterday's experience, Cheng Yao's route today is much clearer.

As she walked, she used her scythe to break through the seemingly tangled weeds.

No one has set foot in this forest for a long time.

In order to make it easier to go up the mountain in the future, we still have to open up a path.

After the sickle cuts the weeds, light green sap flows down, and the smell of grass fills the air.

Cheng Yao suddenly felt itchy at the tip of her nose and couldn't hold it back and sneezed.

The movement was so big that it startled the small animals not far away.

Cheng Yao saw a flexible shadow flashing past her eyes.

"What ran over?"

Cheng Yao leaned forward and squatted lower.

His gaze passed through the dense grass and landed not far away.

Taking a closer look, it turned out to be a well-proportioned pheasant that was trotting away!

The feathers of the pheasant sparkled in the sun, as if they were inlaid with gold-rimmed gems.

Unlike domestic animals raised in captivity, pheasants appear to be exceptionally flexible and athletic.

The two black pupils were also scanning the surroundings vigilantly, moving around, unwilling to stay in one place for a long time.

Cheng Yao immediately became energetic, leaned down, and slowly approached the location of the pheasant.

Finally, she moved to the best position for action.

Not sure if it sensed the approaching danger, the pheasant flapped its wings uneasily.

Seeing that the prey that was about to be obtained was about to fly, Cheng Yao was a little anxious.

Not caring too much, he jumped up and wanted to catch the pheasant with his bare hands.

But he was no match for the opponent's dexterity. He shouted and flew directly over Cheng Yao's head.

Cheng Yao looked at the feathers falling from the sky and stood there, a little dumbfounded.

"I'll be careful, this pheasant is different, it can fly like this..."

Cheng Yao was a little unconvinced and turned around, looking for the pheasant.

I saw the pheasant on the grass not far away, lowering its head and pecking at it.

He looked like he was strolling around in the courtyard, as if he didn't take Cheng Yao seriously at all.Cheng Yao knew that it would be difficult to catch it directly.

At critical moments, you have to rely on outsmarting.

When Cheng Yao went up the mountain, she made herself a simple rice ball, just enough to break off some rice grains to use as bait.

The basket on the back can be used as a catching basket. As for hemp rope and twigs, these things are not difficult to obtain.

Cheng Yao walked along the outer circle to an open space not far away.

I took off the backpack on my back and scattered some rice grains on the ground.

Then tie the rope to the wooden stick, and hold up the wooden stick without the rope to hold up the basket.

After completing this series of preparations, Cheng Yao pulled the other end of the rope and slowly retreated.

He hid behind the bushes not far from the trap.

Cheng Yao has a slender figure, and the dress she is wearing today is not a bright color. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to spot it at all.

No one can spot it, let alone this free-range chicken that knows how to catch insects.

Cheng Yao was now full of confidence in her device and just waited for the pheasant to be caught.

The pheasant not far away was completely unaware that it was slowly approaching a trap.

Cheng Yao knew that there was no need to rush now, so she kept holding her breath to observe the pheasant's direction.

As long as he is attracted by the food and comes within range of the backpack, the plan is half successful.

The gap between its pecking was the best time for Cheng Yao to pull down the hemp rope.

As long as it is covered by the carrier, it will have no choice but to escape even if it wants to.

The pheasants here have never seen such a trap before, so they are naturally unsuspecting.

Cheng Yao looked at the pheasant getting closer and closer, and the corners of her mouth began to tilt up uncontrollably.

Finally, with nervous anticipation, the pheasant slowly walked into the basket.

However, it was somewhat vigilant, and always had one foot extended outside the edge of the trap.

Cheng Yao was a little undecided. She was afraid that if she took action too early, she would scare the pheasants away. In the end, everything was in vain.

Most of the time, pheasants eat small insects or wild rice.

Today is the first time I have eaten rice that has been peeled and cooked.

The fresh taste gradually lowered its vigilance, and slowly retracted its legs that were stretched out in the outer circle.

It's now!

Cheng Yao aimed at the opportunity and pulled hard.

The basket was placed over the pheasant's head, and the inside instantly became pitch black.

The pheasant was startled by this sudden change and flapped its wings violently.

How could Cheng Yao let the fat in her mouth fly away?

She quickly ran out from behind the grass and pressed herself against the basket.

The basket was bumping up and down, and from time to time the cries of struggling pheasants could be heard.

Cheng Yao didn't dare to open the backpack directly for fear that the pheasant would escape.

She exchanged it for a sack and blocked it at the mouth of her backpack. As soon as she lifted it, the pheasant flew into the sack.

Cheng Yao pinched the mouth of the sack and tied it firmly.

"I knew it!"

"If I wasn't careful, I almost let you run away again!"

Cheng Yao looked at the pheasant tossing in the sack and said with some pride.

She won't fall down twice in the same place. This pheasant is very powerful. If you don't take it seriously, you can't catch it.

The progress bar of today's mission was filled up a lot at once. Even if she didn't find the medicinal materials next, she still didn't leave empty-handed.

Cheng Yao knocked the pheasant unconscious, threw it into the basket, and continued up the mountain.
