saw Liu Danqing kill the reindeer, and there was a wail in the live broadcast room.

"Master Qing, such a cute reindeer, you are also small, it's too cruel. ”

"Seeing that Qing Ye hunted reindeer, I thought of Qing Ye and Weiwei's poisoning time, which was too disappointing. ”

"It's over, Qing Ye and Weiwei have reindeer meat, so they won't eat earthworms. ”

"Yes, yes, with reindeer, how do you watch the two of you eat earthworms. ”

co-authored, the reason for the wailing is more because there is no chance to watch the two eat earthworms......

After Liu Danqing killed the reindeer, he raised his head, and the other four reindeer had already disappeared

Finish.

This is the survival of reindeer, and it is also the survival of many herbivores, when they face a crisis, they will only run away on their own, rather than rescue their companions in crisis.

It's not that they're cold-blooded, it's the inheritance in their genes that tells them that protecting themselves is protecting the continuation of the population.

As for hunting, the high productivity and extremely fast growth rate will make up for it.

For example, reindeer have a sexual cycle of 13-22 days, and they have a high fertility rate, and they can have a baby basically every year.

Although they only give birth to one or two reindeer at a time, the female deer is sexually mature at the age of 1.5, and individual well-developed individuals can participate in breeding that year until they are 14 years old, and their reproductive ability is very strong.

Young reindeer grow faster than any other animal, with the doe conceiving in the winter and giving birth in the spring. The cubs can follow the doe two or three days after birth, and after a week, they can run as fast as their parents, reaching speeds of up to 48 kilometers per hour.

There were no reindeer in Iceland, but in the 18th century, Icelanders introduced the animal from Norway and raised it in the Eastfjords.

Once in Iceland, the reindeer began to breed and spread to all sorts of inaccessible places, and they can now be found in many frozen tundras, except for the Eastfjords.

Seeing Liu Danqing suppressing the reindeer, Xiao Weiwei also ran over.

Although the shoes do not have laces, the hiking boots themselves are relatively foot-wrapping, so as long as they are not running fast, there is no problem.

"Qingqing, is this a fawn? Why are the horns so big?"

Liu Danqing wiped the blood from the Viking knife on the grass and explained: "This is not a fawn, but a road, reindeer are different from many cattle and sheep and other herbivores, among them, the female is larger, can grow up to two or three hundred kilograms, while the male is smaller, can only grow to about 100 kilograms." ”

"But their horns are the opposite of their body size, the horns of male deer are larger, and the antlers of female deer are smaller, so when you see this kind of reindeer with horns and body length, it is basically a male. ”

"This group of reindeer was originally three males and two females, I helped them adjust it, and now it happens to be monogamous, look, how harmonious, haha!"

Picking up the two slings, Liu Danqing untied the stones on them, and then said to Xiao Weiwei:

"Weiwei, the shoelaces will be useful for a while, I won't return them to you yet, let's drag this deer back to the hot springs and slaughter it together." ”

Xiao Weiwei nodded, and Liu Danqing had a deer leg, dragging them to the hot spring.

As she walked, Xiao Weiwei exclaimed: "This deer doesn't look big, it's so heavy!"

Liu Danqing replied: "Yes, the reindeer is the thicker of all the deer, so the Evenks in China and the Nenets in the Rakshasa have domesticated reindeer and used them for riding and pulling carts. ”

"This reindeer, estimated to be seventy or eighty kilograms, should be fully adult, but because it lives in the alpine area and has a lot of exercise, it is lighter. ”

Then, Liu Danqing opened his young master lecture hall again.

"Many people may think that the name reindeer is very unfamiliar, but when it comes to their original Chinese name, everyone must have heard of it, which is the four different images. ”

"Up to now, there has been controversy about whether the four are elk or reindeer, because both have heads and faces like horses, horns like deer, necks like camels, and tails like donkeys, but from the point of view of being able to ride, the four elephants may be reindeer, not elk, although the elk is also very large, but not strong enough to be ridden. ”

After dragging the reindeer to the hot spring, Liu Danqing first peeled off the skin of the reindeer, tied it with shoelaces, and threw it into the hot spring to soak, and the other end of the shoelace was tied to a large stone to prevent the deer skin from being washed away by the hot spring water.

"Now I'm going to put the deerskin in the hot spring water here and blanch it, hoping to make it easier for me to dispose of, and to kill or wash away some parasites. ”

Xiao Weiwei's laces were also replaced by Liu Danqing with 550 paracords, which are very strong and suitable for many places.

After skinning, Liu Danqing began to disembowel, disemboweling the reindeer, and took out the internal organs, but except for the liver, he abandoned the rest of the internal organs on the tundra.

"Now we don't have the conditions to make a fire, and we don't have enough kitchen utensils and spices, so we have to give up the rest except for the liver. ”

"The liver contains a lot of vitamins, iron, coenzymes, and trace elements such as selenium, which we urgently need. ”

"Eskimos, no, they should be called Inuit, Eskimos are the same as Chinans, it is an insulting term, and it has to be said that our primary school Chinese textbooks are very lax. ”

"After the Inuit hunted seals, they would eat raw seal liver to supplement vitamins and trace elements to make up for the lack of vegetables and nuts. ”

"We're not that heavy-mouthed, so now I'm going to use Xiao Weiwei's laces again. ”

Liu Danqing cut the reindeer liver into six thin slices, then tied them one by one with shoelaces, and then threw them all into the hot spring water, and then handed the other end to Xiao Weiwei for her to carry, while he himself began to cut off pieces of venison from the deer and put them aside.

Deer liver is very tender, so even if the water temperature is only 60 or 70 degrees, the red color of the outer layer of the liver will gradually turn gray.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Liu Danqing asked Xiao Weiwei to lift the deer liver up, and broke open a finger-thick piece of deer liver, only to see that except for a trace of red in the middle, the rest of the part had turned gray.

"It's ready to eat, it doesn't matter if it's a little red. ”

Liu Danqing glanced at it, continued to peel the meat, and said, "Weiwei, you eat first, I'll finish cutting this side, and then come over to eat the meat." ”

Xiao Weiwei listened, and was not polite, she directly put the broken piece to her mouth and took a bite.

"Well, yes, tender, with a hint of sweetness, just mixed with a bit of rotten eggs in the hot springs, but overall, it tastes good. ”

Liu Danqing quickly finished shaving the venison on the upward side of the reindeer, and then washed his hands in the puddle to wash away the blood on his hands.

After taking a piece of liver, Liu Danqing took a bite, chewed a few times and swallowed it.

"It tastes really good, because it is not put in boiling water, so the vitamins in the liver are not destroyed, so it has a fresh taste, and the iron in the liver makes it have a hint of sweetness, which is delicious. ”

The deer liver was not very large, so the two of them quickly ate it all, leaving only the shoelace.

After eating the deer liver, the two turned the reindeer over together and began to peel the other half of the venison.

It took more than half an hour for the reindeer to have only one head, one tail, four hooves and a skeleton, and the venison on its body basically turned into strips of meat of all sizes and sizes that were laid out on the ground.

Liu Danqing pulled up the deer skin in the water, spread it on the ground, put all the venison into the deer skin, and said while putting it down: "Now, we have to cook these venison, there is no fire here, but there is a natural pot here." ”

Xiao Weiwei also helped carry the venison and asked, "Do you mean those boiling hot spring pools?"

Liu Danqing nodded and replied, "Yes, it's those pools, the water temperature there should be able to exceed 100 degrees, and it's easy to cook venison." ”

"More than 100 degrees? The altitude here should be 1,000 meters, and at this altitude, isn't there a lot of boiling points on the ground?"

Xiao Weiwei asked suspiciously.

"It's at a high altitude, but don't forget that most of the hot springs on the other side of the pool are underground, which means they're like water in a pressure cooker, and the water gets hotter under high pressure. ”

The audience finally got to know a physics debate competition in which Xiao Weiwei, who was a theoretical student, lost to Liu Danqing, who linked theory with practice.

After loading the venison, Liu Danqing put the deer skin together, lifted it, and said: "There are about sixty or seventy catties, and the meat yield of reindeer is generally more than fifty percent, but I am now processing it relatively roughly, and it has been wasted, but so much meat is enough for us to eat well for a few days." ”

Then the two of them walked back up the hill with a deerskin containing strips of meat.

Back at the first pool, the two put down the deerskin and sat on the edge of the pool in the upper wind.

This pool is a little shallower, the lowest place, only seventy or eighty centimeters from the surface of the water, and the boiling water vapor evaporates from the spurs, and when it encounters cold air, it instantly turns into a thick white mist.

Liu Danqing first picked up the smallest and thinnest strips of venison, these were cut off from the reindeer's belly, and he tied the middle of the venison strips with shoelaces, tightened them, and knotted them.

On one shoelace, he tied six strips of venison, and then asked Xiao Weiwei to tie the other end to his fingers before throwing the venison into the boiling water.

Then came the second shoelace, which was still the same operation, and it was still handed to Xiao Weiwei in her hand.

Next, he untied his shoelaces, tied the larger venison in the middle, and threw it into the boiling water.

The difference is that because his shoelaces are thirty or forty centimeters longer than Xiao Weiwei's, he can tie the other end of the shoelaces to a big stone and fix it.

Four shoelaces can cook a quarter of the venison at a time, but they are not in a hurry, take their time.

After you are hungry, you can feel the preciousness of food.
