Chapter 402: Foodie's Resentment
Putting the two wildebeest thighs on the branches, Liu Danqing and Xiao Weiwei lit a fire and collected firewood, and after half an hour, the fire had already risen.
There was nothing to say about this, but this time Xiao Weiwei suddenly had a bold idea.
"Qingqing, I'll make a fire, I want to see if I can raise the fire quickly under pressure. ”
In the face of this proposal, Liu Danqing readily agreed, a female savage who can't drill wood to make fire is definitely not a qualified female savage.
Xiao Weiwei was also very competitive, and used Liu Danqing's commonly used shoelace pressure drilling wood to make fire, although it was slower than Liu Danqing's speed of making a fire, and she failed once, but the second time she successfully lit the velvet.
Sitting in front of the fire leaning against the trunk of the tree, Liu Danqing began to cut the wildebeest strips, and introduced while cutting: "This wildebeest meat is also a typical red meat, the same as beef and mutton, but horse meat is also red meat, so it is still not distinguishable from the meat quality It is more like that kind of meat." ”
"But it smells more like beef, there is no fishy smell of mutton, I haven't eaten horse meat, I can't make a comparison, I don't care for the time being, there is no fishy smell of wildebeest meat makes me feel at ease, after all, we only have nutmeg in seasoning now, if it is roast mutton, it is difficult to remove the fishy smell in the mutton." ”
"It is said that there are quite a few natural salt fields in this area, and even some abandoned salt ponds, but we were unlucky to find none of them, otherwise we would have been able to make some table salt. ”
Xiao Weiwei is responsible for crushing the nutmeg she picked up, she first puts a handful of nutmeg on a piece of cut wood, carefully smashes them with the other half of the wood, and then crushes the nutmeg into pieces and powder with a stick.
After finishing it, the two of them rubbed nutmeg powder onto the wildebeest strips and threaded copper wires through the ends of the strips.
When all the strips were dressed, they tied copper wires to four sticks that had been inserted and allowed them to be grilled by the flames.
After arranging, Liu Danqing pointed to the grill and said: "Our current barbecue method looks a bit silly, after more than half an hour, we will turn them over and continue to roast, and after more than an hour, the meat strips in the middle will almost be cooked, and the side on the side, at most, the skin will be cooked, and the middle will still be raw." ”
"But we did it on purpose, so that the middle ones were cooked first, so that we would be able to hurry almost when we were done, and as for the side ones, we continued to roast them in the evening, and more so that we were ready to smoke them for one night as dry food. ”
Xiao Weiwei clasped her hands around her knees, watched the meat skewers in the middle slowly oozing out of the grease under the scorching fire, and asked suspiciously: "Qingqing, why do you call them wildebeests? Now I also think they have nothing to do with horses." ”
Liu Danqing thought for a while and replied: "Judge people by their appearance, just because they have a long horse face, so they are called wildebeests." ”
"But in addition to genetics, wildebeest are much faster than horses, they can run at speeds of up to 90 yards for more than ten minutes, and like other antelopes, they can use their speed and endurance to shake off cheetahs, while even thoroughbreds can only sprint at about 60 yards. ”
In this way, it is really not easy for Liu Danqing and Xiao Weiwei to hunt a wildebeest, if they were found earlier, I am afraid that it will only be empty for them.
Even those dumb-looking warthogs were able to reach speeds of up to 55 yards.
After turning over the strips of meat and grilling them for another half hour, the two of them were ready for lunch.
Instead of removing the strips of meat, they used two wooden sticks as chopsticks to grip the strips of meat in the middle, cut them off the copper wire with knives, and cut them into small pieces and placed them on the leaves in front of them.
"Okay! We're going to enjoy the wildest grilled steak in wild Africa, wild wildebeest, plus wild barbecue methods, let's try it!"
Liu Danqing pointed to the gray roasted in front of him, with some charred black wildebeest meat, and introduced, Xiao San also gave a close-up professionally, and even the slight grease on it could be seen clearly.
Xiao Weiwei picked up a piece of wilde meat and put it in the end, "Hmm! It's so delicious, I want to say that wildebeest should definitely be classified into the category of cow, it tastes really like beef, fat and juicy, plus the spicy aroma of nutmeg, delicious! ”
Swallowing a piece of beef, Liu Danqing echoed: "Weiwei is not exaggerating at all, this is still a beef leg meat that is not suitable for barbecue, it is so delicious when grilled, Weiwei, do you know what I'm thinking now?"
"Hmm, what?"
"I thought that if I had another chance to hunt the wildebeest, I would have to take the tenderloin off and walk away, even if it would be a little dangerous, but it would be worth it to think about how delicious the tender wildebeest loin would be when it was grilled. ”
When Xiao Weiwei heard Liu Danqing's words, she immediately turned her head and glared at him and said, "Let's go cut the tenderloin now!"
"It's late!" Liu Danqing smiled helplessly: "Now in the past, it is estimated that only the skeleton of a wildebeest can be found, or a few African vultures can be seen picking shredded meat, two hours is enough time for the beasts to follow the smell of blood to find the carcass of the wildebeest and devour it all." ”
Xiao Weiwei's expectant little eyes immediately became extremely lost.
"Alas, such good meat, such good meat, why is it gone?"
Liu Danqing looked at Xiao Weiwei even more helplessly, and took the initiative to admit his mistake: "My fault, my fault, I didn't expect that this wildebeest meat was so fragrant and delicious, I just wanted to get some food at that time, but I missed the food." ”
The two communicated as if no one was around, and at the same time, they did not forget to continue to eat wildebeest meat, but they starved to death a group of audiences.
"Qing Ye Weiwei, is it really good for you to poison like this?"
"I went to check, there are wildebeest in Huaguo, but it is a national first-class protected animal, I went, and my heart was cold in an instant......
"Master Qing, hurry up and open up the route to Africa, my wild heart is already hungry!"
"Upstairs, the black girl is good, but be careful of AIDS!"
……
Although the two of them regretted the deliciousness of the wildebeest, they were not slow in their mouths, and soon ate the few wildebeest meat they had cut off.
After lunch, Xiao Weiwei took a sip of water, rubbed her cheeks, and said, "I chewed too hard, my mouth was a little sour, and now I want to sing a song to express my current mood!"
Liu Danqing immediately picked it up, applauded and smiled: "Warm drink and sing slightly, everyone chirp!"
Xiao Weiwei cleared her throat and began to sing.
"The loin is like the flowing water,
Far away from me, you can't stay,
Now mess with my heart,
What a worrith.
Draw the knife to cut off the water and the water is more flowing,
Raise a glass to dispel sorrow and sorrow,
The breeze of the Ming Dynasty drifted around,
…….”
As soon as Comrade Liu Danqing heard this song, the smile on his face immediately collapsed!
Sure enough, the resentment of foodies is powerful, even if they have eaten a lot of wildebeest, they are still pervasive!
After lunch, the two of them took off all the strips of meat, wrapped them in grass leaves, and put them in the blanket of the car seat cover.
This may seem like nothing, but thinking about the role of the blanket before, the audience is happy.
"After experiencing the edification of the smell of elephant poop, the value of Qing Ye's slightly wildebeest meat has skyrocketed!"
"The new luxury after elephant dung coffee, elephant dung barbecue, you deserve it!"
"Flavorful barbecue, produced by Qing Ye slightly, if you want to buy it as soon as possible, ......"
The two of them took all their belongings and walked towards the location where the sage had been found.
There were a lot of sage, and the two of them used the mountain knife to cut wildly, stuffing Liu Danqing's blanket to the full.
This blanket is made of two seat covers in the front seat of the car, and the capacity is very large, and when it is stuffed, Liu Danqing's shadow becomes a circle.
While walking, Liu Danqing introduced the current situation: "Now, we have food, mosquito repellent grass, only the fire fold cannot be made, but this is not important, as long as the weather is normal and it does not rain, it is basically not difficult to make a fire." ”
"Besides, even if it rains, we are not afraid, mosquitoes can't come out in the rain, we just need to build a place to shelter from the rain, although there are no banana leaves here, but the tall pole grass is also a good material to make a roof. ”
I have to say that Liu Danqing's mouth was really dark, and before he had walked much, a black cloud floated over from the sky.
Xiao Weiwei scolded Liu Danqing angrily: "Qingqing, let you not want a crow's mouth, you don't listen, look, look, it's going to rain soon, what should I do?"
What to do?
Liu Danqing has no answer, it's no problem to rush on a rainy day, and it may be safer.
The beasts of the grassland use their sense of smell to find their prey, and on rainy days, the smell is obscured by the rain, and the sense of sight and hearing is also much weakened.
But there is one of the biggest problems that you have to face when traveling on a rainy day.
Not being able to see the reference, not being able to determine the direction, is an unavoidable problem.
If the two of them had a compass, then it didn't matter if they continued to hurry, after all, although it was November, the temperature on the grassland was still very high, even if it was raining, the temperature would be around ten or twenty degrees.
So Liu Danqing could only say helplessly: "Continue to walk for a while, go to the grove over there, and see if the situation is to build a shelter." ”
The grove he spoke of was still the kind where twenty or thirty trees grew relatively close.
This kind of grove is still relatively common in the Okavango River Delta, where water is relatively abundant and trees do not need to expand their root system to tens or hundreds of meters in a radius.
The grove is still dominated by acacia trees, interspersed with some neem and wenge trees.
At this time, the sun was completely blocked, and the sky was getting darker and darker, and there was quite a bit of dark clouds pressing down on the city.
Liu Danqing looked at the dark sky and said: "Weiwei, while the rain hasn't come down yet, let's quickly build a shelter, light a fire, and use firewood on our mobile phones, anyway, it's not too early, just set up camp." ”
