She wanted to go hunting while she went out to collect fruits today.
If we can catch some good prey, we can provide nutrition for Gu Qingrou.
Looking at the other person who was squatting in the corner of the cave grinding carbon powder, Su Yan's eyes showed a hint of worry.
Anya and Qin Ruoshuang had already headed for the grassland with knives in their pockets. They planned to catch more rabbits and make them into jerky.
Anya and Qin Ruoshuang also saw Zhang Liu's situation this time.
If Anya had not brought two rabbits later, Zhang Liu would probably have started exploring with four salted rabbit legs.
Therefore, the storage capacity of jerky is really important.
Especially now that we can use seawater to make salt, there is no need to worry too much about storage issues.
After several people confirmed with each other what they were going to do, they began their respective work.
Qin Ruoyan quickly arrived at the rocky beach area by the sea.
There are always fish swimming in the water here, but I can never catch them.
After all, water is the home turf of fish.
She now has three hooks made from rabbit bones in her hands.
As for the bait, it was rabbit entrails.
"I hope it will be successful!" Qin Ruoyan prayed softly, then stretched out the fishing rod in her hand.
At the top of the fishing rod is a fishing line made of fine grass roots, and at the end of the fishing line are three hooks.
She is not a professional fisherman, so she doesn't know if this will work.
It's just an instinctive feeling that the more hooks there are, the higher the probability of catching fish.
After a few seconds, Qin Ruoyan was dumbfounded.
Because all three fish hooks were floating on the water...with no sign of sinking at all.
The fishing line made from fine grass roots has extremely strong buoyancy.
The rabbit's bones are clearly not heavy enough to overcome this buoyancy force.
"Emmm..." She silently picked up the rod and reeled in the fishing line.
Since she was already here, Qin Ruoyan began to look for dry wood or something near the rocky beach.
Although I can’t be considered a fisherman yet.
But she has vaguely developed the style of "a fisherman never comes back empty-handed".
Qin Ruoyan picked up the wood and brought it back to the cave. She announced to Gu Qingrou who was drawing water that she had no chance of catching anything. Then she began to concentrate on improving her fishing equipment. At the same time, Su Yan also encountered an absence of fish.
She shot her last arrow but missed a bird.
“It’s so difficult…”
He ran to a nearby place and put the remaining arrows back into the simple quiver made of tree bark behind him.
Su Yan sighed helplessly.
The most fatal problem of this compound bow, which was almost handmade by primitive people, was that it was impossible to prepare for aiming using a three-point-in-one-line method.
This was simply fatal for Su Yan, who was used to using a traditional compound bow.
"It's okay, Yanyan. I just saw your last arrow fly right past the bird."
Lan Yueting stood by and watched Su Yan shoot all twelve arrows one by one. At the same time, she felt a little regretful about the last arrow.
It really just brushed past the bird's body.
The arrow even hit the bird, causing it to deviate some distance.
“I don’t have the feel anymore.”
Su Yan shook her head helplessly, then put the bow and arrow aside under a tree, preparing to help Lan Yueting pick some Harvest Fruit.
Then her eyes suddenly became serious.
Because on the trunk of a jaboticaba tree three meters to the left of Lan Yueting, a group of "branches" were slowly wriggling.
The branches can't possibly move!
So it was obviously the kind of snake that Anya had mentioned before that might appear near the fruit forest!
"Don't move!"
Su Yan quickly picked up the bow and arrow from the side, and without any hesitation, she put the arrow on the arrow rest, then pre-pulled the arrow and aimed it in one go.
"call out!"
He had tested the power of the bow and arrow, and found that wood sharpened with metal sheets could be nailed directly into ordinary trees.
The lethality is quite good.
Unlike the previous empty shots, perhaps in an emergency situation, Su Yan's touch returned, and at this moment it accurately hit the "slowly creeping branches"
Section 1#Volume 2 A stable food source is the first step to development: Chapter 98 I want to eat two bowls...
"Plop!" A snake about one meter long and as thick as four fingers fell to the ground with the arrow.
Su Yan's attack did not cause fatal damage to it, but the pain of the hole in its body caused it to roll over.
And it was facing the direction where Lan Yueting was currently.
Lan Yueting, who put her self-defense weapon, the sheep-horn spear, aside and went into battle picking fruit barehanded, had no way of reacting in time.
Her natural fear of snakes made her stand there and watch the snake roll towards her feet and then wrap directly around her ankle.
Cold, soft, and hard.
It was like an ice pick had become flexible and started to bend and knot at the ankle!
Her legs were so stiff that Lan Yueting couldn't move at all.
She was so frightened that all her muscles trembled.
Su Yan was also very anxious when she saw this scene.
She leaned forward and was about to pick the snake off Lan Yueting's foot.
But the snake was wrapped very tightly around her, and Su Yan couldn't easily pry it apart. After repeated tests several times, the friction between the snake's body and Lan Yueting's calves only increased.
Every time he rubbed his body, the latter's trembling became more intense.
Finally, Lan Yueting came to her senses, took her foot out of her shoe, shook it off the long snake with brown patterns, and then stepped on the thick dead leaves next to her.
After successfully getting rid of the snake, she came back to her senses while gasping for breath.
Without hesitation, Lan Yueting picked up the sheep-horn spear placed not far away and struck the snake straight at its body.
Once, twice...
The powerful potential energy carried by the spear made the snake, which was originally planning to run away, lose its chance of escape.
But for snakes, which are tenacious creatures that can still move even if their heads are smashed, attacks like hitting with sticks cannot have a fatal effect.
Therefore, even when Lan Yueting sat on the ground exhausted, the snake, which had been hit and covered in blood, was still wriggling.
But all that was left was wriggling.
The spear had broken all the bones of the snake.
Su Yan stood two meters away and watched the scene, swallowing slightly.
I feel a little scared.
Just now, Lan Yueting knocked twice and then continued knocking with her eyes closed, completely ignoring her anxious shouting beside her.
So Su Yan didn't dare to go forward rashly.
In order to increase the lethality of the sheep's horns, Anya specially sharpened them.
If you casually step forward and enter the attack range, you will most likely be cut by the goat-horn spear.
Seeing Lan Yueting crying and gasping for breath, Su Yan ran over to comfort her, "It's okay, the snake is dead..."
"Yan Yan... I want to go home... I'm so scared..." Holding Su Yan's slender waist, Lan Yueting began to cry bitterly.
"Okay, okay, it's okay, it's okay..." Holding Lan Yueting's head with both hands, Su Yan softly comforted her: "We can definitely go home!"
"Really..." Lan Yueting asked in a crying voice, her voice quite miserable.
"Really, you have to believe in the power of everyone working together!" Su Yan repeatedly comforted him, "Don't cry, it's almost noon, let's go back to the cave first, and take this snake with us. I'll stew it for you..."
"Well... I want to eat two bowls!" Thinking of her miserable experience, Lan Yueting whispered and doubled her request.
"Okay, okay, two bowls!" In this situation, even if Lan Yueting said that she had to swallow the snake alive, Su Yan would agree.
In Lan Yueting's crying voice.
The snake, which was about one meter long and covered in blood and flesh, was pierced through the head by Su Yan with a spear. She then carried the spear on her shoulder and let the snake hang in front of her.
This will make it convenient for Su Yan to make sure that the snake poses no threat to her on her way back.
As for Lan Yueting, she followed her towards the cave carrying a large bag of fruit.
In terms of gains, the two of them did not do badly.
We picked nearly a hundred jaboticabas, more than twenty egg yolk fruits, and a one-meter-long snake that was still intact, so we had both meat and vegetable food.
At the same time, Zhang Liu also followed the signposts left by Qin Ruoyan and arrived at the mountainside.
Feeling physically exhausted, he decided to rest here for a while, then make a few torches and fire to take with him on the road the next day.
Zhang Liu had a very difficult time along the way.
Qin Ruoyan went up the mountain twice and managed to open up a path. What he was doing just now was to expand this road.
On the way up the mountain, Zhang Liu turned into a nature destroyer with a fire hammer in hand, and cut through several bushes that Qin Ruoyan had to take a detour around.
I also collected a lot of fruits by the way.
However, looking at the weeds and shrubs that almost covered the top of the mountain from the hillside up, he felt extremely helpless.
I don’t know if I can successfully reach the summit in the whole day tomorrow.
The reason why Zhang Liu wanted to make torches was because he saw a small pine forest.
Unlike the pine trees you see in schools every day, the pine trees here look rather peculiar.
The pine needles are relatively long, thick and soft, and the pine cones are also very large.
Zhang Liu picked up a pine cone from the ground that was half the length of his palm. He looked through it carefully for a long time but did not see the pine nuts he was looking for.
Damn...there aren't any squirrels or anything like that here...
He couldn't help but complain heavily in his heart.
Zhang Liu didn't know that the pine tree growing in the shade in front of him was scientifically called Pinus tabulaeformis.
Different from ordinary pine trees, it is a pine tree that can grow in the subtropics. It has no pine nuts and reproduces by releasing pollen.
The reason why there is such a large area is, first of all, that this place is in a long-term backlit environment, and the temperature is much lower than the surrounding temperature, which meets the basic conditions for the growth of Pinus tabulaeformis.
Later, pine nut pollen came here due to the influence of monsoon blowing or carried by the feathers of migrating birds.
After years of polishing, this subtropical seedless plant has successfully reproduced.
But there is only this area where it can grow.
At present, it has been of great help to Zhang Liu.
At this moment, he was recalling the torch-making process in the wilderness survival video.
I remember that before making it, it seemed that you had to cut the bark to collect the resin to act as a combustion aid...
For Zhang Liu, cutting the bark to collect the resin was not a difficult task.
Swinging the bladed side of the fire hammer, he randomly found two unlucky pine trees and cut many grooves in them.
Then Zhang Liu picked up several pine cones and a pile of dry pine needles and ran to an open space. He planned to use this place as a temporary camp.
It should be noon time now. The sunlight in the sky is very strong, and even the shadows of people are only a short one.
Zhang Liu did not waste this time.
