Chapter 40: Hunting
After taking a break at noon, Qin Feng felt that the whole person was more energetic, and it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon, almost three o'clock, although it was still a little hot at this time, but it was already past the hottest time, and Qin Feng was also ready to go.
"If you get lost in a wilderness, the best option is to find a direction and keep going, and the best way to choose a direction is to find a distant reference and keep moving towards the goal. ”
While exploring, Qin Feng opened his mouth to talk about some survival knowledge, although it is all the most basic and has been said many times, but the world is so big, there are always people who don't know, and there are always people who claim to be smart who will disdain it, and there are new fans every time.
Therefore, these things should be said or said, and Qin Feng is also doing this, he is using the few shrubs on the small hill not far away as a reference, and keeps advancing, otherwise it is easy to get lost in this vast grassland.
It didn't take long for Qin Feng to suddenly stop, his eyes looked at the grassland hundreds of meters away, only to see dozens of African elephants appear there, and he also picked up an elephant feces in the morning, but he didn't expect to find a group in the afternoon.
"it! Feng Shao, hurry up and run away!"
"Upstairs, what's the hurry, the elephant won't take the initiative to attack people, as long as you don't provoke it. ”
"Feng Shao still has to be careful, there are elephants here, which means that there are definitely other predatory beasts nearby!"
Seeing the barrage, Qin Feng nodded and said:
"Yes, after all, there is a river here, and the beasts also need to drink water, and there must be other beasts around here, so we need to be careful. ”
After saying that, Qin Feng bypassed the elephant herd hundreds of meters away, although the elephants were relatively gentle animals.
However, to be on the safe side, he bypassed.
Later, after briefly explaining some of the situation to the audience in the live broadcast room, he continued to explore, but this time, he changed directions and walked back according to the location of the river, so that he could rush back almost before nightfall, and at the same time he could see what wildlife was nearby.
It would be foolish to go too far in the wilderness at once, and this expedition has almost covered nearly ten kilometers, and if you go any further, you may encounter more and more predators.
Qin Feng didn't want to encounter a pack of hyenas, or a pack of lions, even if it was an elephant, he didn't want to meet it, after all, he was alone in Africa, and he might encounter danger if he wasn't careful.
Then walked for an hour, except for the occasional antelope, did not encounter other wild animals for the time being, when Qin Feng saw the unexpected Nile River thousands of meters, he couldn't help but exhale, this afternoon's exploration was a complete success, and his main task was to go to the Nile River to kill a Nilo'o.
Now the problem of food should be solved, Qin Feng walked towards the Nile River while paying attention to the movements around him to see if he could find any suitable prey.
Today he did not plan to eat grasshoppers again, but to hunt them officially, and after a while, he found a group of fat gophers foraging on the grass in front of him.
Seeing this scene, Qin Feng almost drooled, since he had encountered these gophers, then today's dinner is yours!
As he approached, a gopher standing up to keep watch spotted him, and then emitted a low-frequency alarm sound that human ears could not hear.
The sentry gopher barked and swung its fluffy tail, and the group of twenty or thirty gophers, numbering as large, scattered one after another, and all of them dodged into the nearby burrows.
Qin Feng didn't plan to catch these little guys empty-handed, so he casually picked up a dead branch that was the thickness of his arm, came to a hole in the ground, used a dagger to handle one end of the branch slightly, and then began to dig.
"Feng Shao, is this going to dig a rat hole?"
"Upstairs stupid, that's a gopher! It's not a mouse, Feng Shao is a whack-a-mole!"
"It's all split-toothed, almost, those gophers. ”
It's good that these viewers don't send barrages, but as soon as they send it out, Qin Feng only feels even more hungry, and then vigorously waving the dead branches in his hands and starting the great cause of digging holes.
Because the ground was too dry and the soil was very hard, all the digging was slow.
However, when Qin Feng dug for ten minutes, he realized that something was wrong, and immediately noticed that there were dozens of pairs of small eyes not far away, staring at him.
But I saw that on the grass more than ten meters away, more than twenty gophers stood up, hooked their shoulders with each other, and held their hands in front of their chests, all staring at Qin Feng digging holes, as if they were watching his jokes.
"Holy!"
Seeing this scene, Qin Feng was furious, and then threw the branch at the group of gophers, but when those guys saw his movements, they scattered again and ran into the hole in the ground.
"Damn! These holes are connected?"
"Grass! I'm only now reacting!"
"The three holes of the cunning rabbit, even the gophers are the same, so you are stupid, in fact, I have already found out. ”
"Upstairs is a big fool, since you know, then when Feng Shao is digging a hole, why don't you say it?
......
In a barrage, Qin Feng was also laughed at by his stupid behavior, and then laughed:
"I'm sorry, I'm hungry just now! Just thinking about catching whackles without thinking about the structure of their nests. ”
Although he said this, the audience in the live broadcast room was very dissatisfied, and they all sent out a barrage again:
"The eyes of those gophers just now are like stupid humans! I feel that Feng Shao's IQ has been crushed!"
"Feng Shao, find a way to catch this group of damn split-toothed animals, paralyzed!"
"It's unbearable!"
"Can't bear +1"
Well, Qin Feng also felt that those gophers just now were a bit excessive, and then thought about it, looked at the hole he had just dug up, and immediately thought of a way to hunt these guys, and he could serve them in one pot to ensure that none of them could escape.
After Qin Feng thought of a hunting method, he immediately started to act, first looking for stones and branches around, and then using these things to block all the gopher burrows, at least so that those gophers could not escape.
It took twenty minutes of busy work to block all the more than 30 ground squirrel holes.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Feng broke off a palm-sized fire-starting fungus from a dry wooden stake, this fungus is found in many places, even in Africa, on many dead tree trunks, this kind of fungus will grow, they are natural ignition materials.
Then he took the piece of ignition fungus that looked like a Ganoderma lucidum cover, and quickly returned to the camp, fortunately, it was not far from the river, and when Qin Feng returned to the bush, the campfire was still burning, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Put the ignition fungus on the fire, and after a while, it was partially ignited, Qin Feng picked it out with a small wooden stick, and then took the ignition fungus and blew it, just like charcoal, the part that was ignited, emitting a trace of green smoke, appeared in a dark red burning area.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Feng smiled and explained to the live broadcast room:
"Ignition bacteria can be smoldered for four or five hours, and this is how primitive people carried fire in the first days. ”
The audience in the live broadcast room, seeing this scene, guessed what Qin Feng was going to do, and excitedly sent out a barrage.
"Haha, is Feng Shao going to prepare a smoked gopher?"
"The first protein meal is a gopher!"
"6666, sit back and wait for Feng Shao to hunt!"
“+1”
In a flying barrage, Qin Feng wrapped the ignition area of the ignition fungus with green leaves, and then quickly rushed back to the location where the gopher was found, the reason for this was also to prevent the fragmentary sparks from falling on the ground and causing grassland fires.
After a while, Qin Feng rushed to the cave, at this moment, those gophers were all blocked in the nest, even if they were all little experts in digging holes, they couldn't get out for a while.
But the action must be fast, Qin Feng took the hole he had dug before as the goal, quickly cleared the surrounding weeds, and then expanded the hole again, and then put the burning ignition fungus in, and then used the dry weeds to make velvet and cover the ignition fungus.
Qin Feng immediately lay on the ground, opened his mouth and blew lightly, the ignition area of the ignition fungus lit up, and within a few seconds, the covered weeds were ignited, and a small flame appeared.
Then put in the dry firewood, slightly increasing the flame, Qin Feng reached out and took out the stone blocked outside the cave, and then took a handful of dead grass and put it into the flame, immediately producing a large amount of green smoke.
The structure outside the cave, after Qin Feng's excavation again, somewhat resembles a staircase, with a total of two steps, the upper layer is the ground cave, and the lower layer is the burning area, after the green smoke appears, it begins to rise, and with the help of the breeze, it immediately floats into the ground cave.
After a while, I saw an area of dozens of meters, more than 30 ground holes, although blocked by stones and branches, but green smoke came out of the cracks.
Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on the corner of Qin Feng's mouth, as long as he smoked for more than ten minutes, this nest of gophers would basically be smoked to death, and then he could really dig a hole in the ground and receive the prey.
After more than ten minutes, it was time for the harvest.
Under the watchful eye, Qin Feng began to dig holes, and sure enough, these gophers had fainted one by one, and Qin Feng soon dug up more than a dozen.
After taking the victory to the river to clean up, he returned to the camp, walked to the fire, and poked a long stick into the gopher's butt with a slender stick, and then rushed out of the mouth.
"Alright, now it's time to perform the charcoal grilled gopher!"
After speaking, he put the stick on the fire and roasted it, but this scene fell in the eyes of the audience in the live broadcast room, which caused a lot of dissatisfaction.
"It's early in the morning, Feng Shao, are you really good like this!"
"Damn! Feng Shao, do you want to be so rude?"
In the fire, there was a crackle, and after a while, the gophers had been scorched, and Qin Feng gently tore off a layer of rat skin on the outside with his fingers, immediately revealing the rat meat inside.
For a moment, the aroma permeated the camp, and then Qin Feng plucked out the head of the gopher and said at the same time:
"Remove the head, and you can eat the rest. ”
"6666, the first time I saw a string of rats, today is an eye-opener, and I have gained knowledge!"
"I'm serving! Feng Shao Roast Mouse, definitely an expert!"
"It looks like it's delicious. ”
Qin Feng smiled and said:
"When I was a child, I used to eat it when I was in the jungle, but when I grew up, I didn't see it. ”
"Shangguan Xiu'er: Feng Shao is right, in many places has the reputation of 'eating a mouse, being three chickens', whether it is steamed, stewed, or stir-fried, the nutritional value of vole meat is very high, especially for people who love to drink, and it is regarded as a top product with wine, although this is a gopher, but it is almost the same. ”
The gopher meat is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma is overflowing, which only makes people have a great appetite, Qin Feng smiled, and began to enjoy the food.
