Chapter 13 Hunting Birds and Sending Rabbits
Now that we've gone deep to collect bark, let's cut those little saplings back and make them into crossbow arrows.
Xu Yi went for half an hour, and when he came back, he brought more than a dozen intact barks.
"Hasn't the bird come back yet?" Xu Yi saw that Lu Ke was still knitting his shoes seriously, and took the initiative to ask.
"No, there was no movement at all. Xu Yi, could it be that the bird came back on the way back. And then the eggs disappeared and flew away?" Lu Ke said what she thought, after all, she was also always paying attention to the movement above her head.
"It's not impossible. Xu Yi nodded, what Lu Ke said was also possible.
"No matter, let's stay here for the time being, we'll weave things together, and we're on our way. Xu Yi decided to stay for the first night, and it was not too early to go, and there might not be a better camping spot if he continued to walk up.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. Lu Ke smiled slightly, Xu Yi has the final say in major matters, and she takes care of small things.
"Then I'll use these trunks and build a makeshift shelter in the shape of a herringbone to get out. Xu Yi looked at the umbrella trees that had been sawn down by himself, and an idea came to him.
Then, Xu Yi took the sapper shovel, found a flat place, and then dug a square ditch with the sapper shovel, which was almost 20 centimeters deep.
Xu Yi then tied one end of the trunk of two two-meter-long umbrella trees with bark, and inserted the other end into the soil ditch to form a triangle.
The distance between the trunks is 3cm, which saves some material.
It took Xu Yi nearly two hours to set up the temporary shelter.
In these two hours, Lu Ke knitted two pairs of straw sandals and an arrow basket.
The rest of the material can also be used to weave a small point of basket. After all, she is thin and small, and her back basket is naturally smaller than Xu Yi.
Xu Yi was about to ask Lu Ke to go to the temporary shelter to weave a back basket, when he suddenly heard a loud cry.
The birds have returned!
Xu Yi hurriedly took the crossbow arrow, and then made a silent gesture to the landing.
A bird about the size of a wild goose appeared in Xu Yi's field of vision, holding a white animal in its claws.
Just as it was about to enter the nest, there was a 'boom', and the bolts of the short crossbow flew out.
"Hit!" Xu Yi shouted excitedly when he saw the crossbow arrow shooting into the blackbird's body.
At the same time, he quickly reloaded a crossbow arrow.
With a "poof", the prey on the blackbird's talons fell.
Lu Ke's reaction was quick, and he rushed over and picked up the prey.
At the same time, Xu Yi pulled the trigger again.
Because, the blackbird landed on the canopy.
"Whew!"
"It's time to fall. Xu Yi grinned because he shot again.
Sure enough, the blackbird, who had been hit by two arrows, also fell.
Xu Yimeng stepped forward, raised the sapper shovel and slapped the blackbird's head several times, and then lifted it up.
"Good fellow, it's fatter than a duck of four or five pounds, no wonder the eggs are not small. Xu Yi grinned and said proudly.
"Rabbit, Xu Yi, look, there are rabbits in this place. Lu Ke raised the little rabbit in his hand and said excitedly.
In the live broadcast room, it was boiling again.
"Xu Yi is killing two birds with one stone, and he even has a rabbit, which means that other animals may also have it!"
"The crossbow arrows made by themselves are so accurate, Xu Yi is really powerful, they deserve a full meal."
"Come on, that distance hasn't exceeded 5 meters, and if it's not accurate, then there's really nothing to say. ”
"I really want to go hunting after reading it, but unfortunately the short crossbow is also contraband. ”
"Then you can try a slingshot, you can also hunt. ”
"Look at No. 77, I'm looking at my Iweika, I feel sorry for her, I can only eat raw fish today. ”
"Goddess Yi is fine, and now half of the people are still looking for water, food, and camp. ”
"I thought they wouldn't survive the first day, but now they not only have a humanoid shelter, but they also hit a big bird and sent a rabbit, and I'm sour. 100,000 compensation, they earned it. ”
Xu Yi and Lu Ke didn't have the heart to think about this, all they needed to do now was to take care of these two animals.
Xu Yi took out the pot, then plucked the feathers from the blackbird's neck and cut the blackbird's neck with a sapper shovel.
The blackbird is not dead yet, so the blood can still be released.
Now, there's nothing to waste.
The blackbird's blood was mixed with a little sea salt, and it solidified under Lu Ke's even stirring.
Then, Xu Yi took Lu Ke back to the place where they had boiled water before.
You'll have to get some water to clean up the two animals.
Lu Ke couldn't cook, so she continued to be in charge of weaving the back basket.
Xu Yi poured the coagulated bird blood into a plastic bag and sealed it. In this way, the smell of blood is a little lighter, and no animals are attracted.
Then, while Xu Yi went to fetch water, he used a sapper shovel to dissect the carcasses of two animals.
Because the water was too slow, Xu Yi had to abandon the animal's intestines and stomach.
However, the big feathers of the blackbird were collected by Xu Yi, and he planned to make arrow feathers for bows and arrows in the future.
It is not practical to hunt with a short crossbow, you have to make a bow and arrows.
In order to survive for 500 days, Xu Yi must take one step at a time and see three steps and make more predictions.
There is also a rabbit skin, which was also thinned by Xu Yi, and then the skin was stretched out with a branch, saving it from shrinking together.
The span of 500 days is still a long time, and you may experience winter.
Who knows what the winter here will be like?
It is also necessary to collect fur and make clothes to protect against the cold.
At 16:32 in the afternoon, Xu Yi cleaned up the two animals.
Lu Ke had already woven his own back basket here, and also knitted a round basket for Xu Yi's prepared food.
Xu Yi didn't expect Lu Ke to be so careful.
put the processed rabbit meat into the round basket, and handed the blackbird that had not yet been cut to Lu Ke.
"We'll eat rabbit broth in the evening, and we'll make this bird into bacon so we'll have it on our way tomorrow. Xu Yi and Lu Ke talked about their thoughts.
"Okay, so we can go all the way tomorrow. Lu Ke was very relieved of Ke Xu Yi's arrangement, and nodded vigorously.
"Then we will boil the bird's blood and eat it, then boil the water and put it in a plastic bag and drink it on the way tomorrow. Xu Yi continued.
Then, Lu Ke was responsible for boiling the bird's blood, and Xu Yi took the plastic bag to get water.
By the time the bird's blood could be eaten, Xu Yi would almost have enough to boil a pot of water.
After eating the bird's blood, the two of them began to fetch water and boil it.
After boiling three pots of water, the plastic bag was almost full.
