After the water boiled for a few minutes, the two of them poured a bowl each, and then set the bamboo pot aside to let the remaining water in it cool down.

Each person drank two bowls of water, and then carried a bamboo tube of water, and the two wrapped the bamboo furniture they made yesterday in Liu Danqing's undershirt, which was carried by Xiao Weiwei, and then each carried three bamboo javelins and embarked on the trip again.

"It didn't rain last night, which is a good thing, because it means we were still able to travel at a faster pace, about a kilometre per hour. ”

"Don't think I'm joking, one kilometer per hour is already a very fast speed in the jungle, and you see us, we have to cut several branches and vines for every meter we walk, and if it rains, it will be even more troublesome. ”

"It's okay to say that the slippery ground is fine, and the boots we wear are non-slip, but the slippery vines and branches are troublesome, and it takes more of my physical strength to cut them down. ”

"Of course, in the worst-case scenario, it rains during the day, so we have to stay in the shelter and wait for the rain to stop before we can continue on our way. ”

While talking to himself, Liu Danqing waved the machete, and when he cut down a vine, Liu Danqing saw a bright color in the corner of his eye.

"Huh!" Liu Danqing brushed aside the branches in front of him and saw bright colors.

"Weiwei, look over there, a macaw!"

Liu Danqing turned around and whispered to Xiao Weiwei.

"Where, where?" Xiao Weiwei heard that it was a macaw, so she immediately leaned over and looked over.

"Wow, what a big parrot, it looks like it's not small, I'm afraid it has to be a meter long, right?"

Liu Danqing nodded and said: "The macaw is the largest parrot, and it is normal for the body length to reach one meter, slightly, do you think we can do it?"

As he spoke, he touched the bamboo javelin behind his back.

Xiao Weiwei seemed a little hesitant at this time, looked at the beautiful multicolored macaw, and touched her little belly again.

In the end, she still came up with a sentence: "I'm so hungry, I don't know if parrot meat is delicious or not." ”

Liu Danqing nodded and said: "That's it! Let's touch it separately, our steps must be lighter, although the macaw is big, but the courage is very small, don't be discovered by it." ”

The two of them each drew a javelin and slowly groped for the macaw's location.

"Hey, Qingqing, I found a big turtle, it looks so strange, come and take a look!"

The summoning voice of Xiao Weiwei from the other side made Liu Danqing, who was sneaking, fail in his skills, stood up, looked at the colorful macaw that was staring at him stupidly, and turned back to her.

"It's just right, after having a big turtle, you don't have to kill that beautiful stupid bird, hey, silly bird, the turtle saved you!"

"I'll fuck it!" The big turtle that appeared in front of Liu Danqing's eyes was really strange, which surprised him.

The back of this turtle is a bit like a snapping turtle, with three vertical flutes, but its neck is thick and long, half the width of its dorsal armor, and it is even longer than the dorsal armor, and it can't be a shrinking turtle at all.

Another strange thing is its head, which is a right-angled isosceles triangular plate, with two mung bean eyes set on the plate, which looks weird and funny.

"How did this thing get into the woods, they should live in the waters of lakes deep in the Amazon basin, and they rarely appear. ”

Xiao Weiwei pointed to the turtle and said, "Qingqing, do you know this monster?"

"I can't talk about knowing, I've heard that the scientific name of this guy is Marta Turtle, also known as the Dead Leaf Turtle, which is known as the most peculiar vertebrate animal in the world. Liu Danqing explained: "The people of the Sivalo tribe call it the big turtle of the motor motor, the biggest feature of this turtle is that the neck sticks out of the body when the volume is huge, which is completely incommensurate with the body of the turtle itself.

"We usually see the tortoise's neck stretching in a straight line, but it is the neck that spreads horizontally, and there is a large space in the front of the body for the neck to "swing back" horizontally, just like a traveling folding knife, swinging left and right and swinging back, incredible. ”

Liu Danqing leaned down, with the tail of one hand and the neck of the other, lifted the big turtle with a motor motor whose back armor was bigger than the basin, and raised it to show everyone.

"Look, how long its neck should be, even if it is retracted, half of it is still left outside, and it is said that the neck meat of this turtle is very delicious, and it seems that we are blessed again today. ”

"Weiwei, now let's go to the creek and dispose of this turtle, don't look at it now looks honest and honest, but it is a relatively high-level predator in the Amazon basin, with a good mouthful of teeth, it is not fun to be bitten by it. ”

"Whew! This guy is not light, I'm afraid he looks like he is twenty or thirty pounds, and I don't know how much meat he can kill. ”

Holding the Marta turtle to the side of the stream, Liu Danqing pulled out the mountain opening knife, quickly went down, and directly chopped off the turtle's head, which can be regarded as giving it a good time.

Then he turned the turtle over, pried open the belly armor with a mountain knife, removed it, and then took out all the internal organs of the Mata turtle and threw it into the stream.

"Wow, wow, wow!" Xiao Weiwei pointed to the stream and shouted, "Look at it, there is something in the water that is eating offal." ”

Liu Danqing, who was dealing with the turtle, raised his head, looked at it and said, "It's a piranha, also known as a piranha, I didn't expect that there would be this kind of fish in this creek." ”

"But this is a good sign, it means that this is not far from the big tributary, and when the time comes, we will see if the big tributary can support the bamboo raft." ”

Xiao Weiwei was very excited at this time, and said to Liu Danqing: "Piranha! This is a piranha! Qingqing, don't you feel it at all? Piranha!

Liu Danqing pursed his lips secretly, and then explained: "It's true that this piranha has a powerful mouth, but the cannibalism is more of a rumor, in the Amazon Basin, basically every big tributary has a lot of this kind of piranha, but the aborigines are not swimming, washing vegetables, it's okay, don't worry!"

Then he turned his head and continued: "But it is true that the meat of this fish is delicious, especially when it is roasted with a chili called chalapita, and we can use the turtle's head as bait to see if we can catch some." ”

With that, the tortoise was almost done, and he raised his head, lifted the back armor on which the tortoise's flesh was kept, and prepared to wash it.

"Huh, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive!" Liu Danqing looked at the other side and said, then put down the tortoise shell in his hand again, and took Xiao Weiwei's snake staff.

I tried to reach the bottom of the creek, but the water was not deep, and after the rod touched the bottom of the creek, there were still two meters exposed.

Taking two steps back, Liu Danqing jumped forward at an accelerated pace, pressed the snake staff in the air, borrowed a force, jumped over a stream more than four meters wide, and landed steadily on the opposite side of the stream.

"Qingqing, what did you do in the past?"

Xiao Weiwei saw that Liu Danqing didn't say hello, jumped directly to the other side of the river, and asked anxiously.

"Find something good!" replied Liu Danqing as he burrowed into the jungle opposite.

After a few minutes, he came out with a small handful of yellow bell peppers, and said to Xiao Weiwei: "Look, yellow Havana, I just saw a yellow dot in here, so I came to look for it, and sure enough, there is a bush of yellow Havana here." ”

Putting the yellow Havana in his pocket, Liu Danqing jumped over the river with the snake staff again, and then carefully took out the chili peppers from his pocket and looked at them, none of them were broken, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

In 1994, the Guinness Book of World Records recognized Habanero as the hottest pepper on the planet, and it was not until February 2007 that Habanero's hottest pepper was replaced by the Indian Soul Breaker pepper as the second hottest pepper in the world.

"But even if it's the second hottest in the world, it doesn't hurt its spiciness, I don't want it to crumble in my pocket, then my skin will be irritated to death!"

These yellow Havanas are about two or three centimeters long, small and bright, and look like small yellow lanterns, which are extremely cute.

Liu Danqing dragged the yellow lanterns up to show the audience, and said: "In the local language, they are called Chalapita", which is also used to describe a kind of girl, a girl called "Chalapita", who is calm on the outside, but hot on the inside, just like our hot girls in southwest China. ”

Xiao Weiwei looked at the seemingly small and cute yellow Havana, shrunk her neck, and asked, "The former world's first spicy, now the world's second, how to eat this thing?"

Liu Danqing explained: "Of course you can't eat it directly, let's take a chili pepper and pound it in the turtle shell, then fill it with water, and then put the turtle meat in it and dip it. ”

As soon as he said and did it, Liu Danqing used the turtle shell to pull some water, cleaned the cleaned turtle meat, and then poured out the blood.

The smallest of the five yellow havanas was selected and put into the tortoise shell, and carefully pounded it with a wooden stick, but before the pepper could be mashed, the spicy smell that spread made the two of them flee.

"Mom!" Xiao Weiwei blinked her eyes and said, "It's so spicy, my mother..... Ache!"

Before the words were finished, it was a big sneeze.

Liu Danqing also blinked his eyes, looked at the turtle shell from a distance, and said depressedly: "I didn't expect this thing to be so spicy, I'll go, I'm spicy, I don't have a trace of defense!"

As he spoke, he took out his bamboo bowl, scooped a bowl of water into the stream, and rushed to the turtle shell with bated breath and poured the water into it.

With the water, Yellow Havana finally can't walk with that spicy taste for the eyes.

Scooping water into it with a bamboo bowl again, knowing that the turtle shell was full, and even water overflowed, the two began to dip all the turtle meat in the water, then packed it with banana leaves, and finally put it in the turtle shell after washing in the creek, and stuffed it into Liu Danqing's parachute bag.
