Chapter Fifty-Eight: Catching the Pheasant

He thought of many ways, one of which was that he wanted to stun or kill the pheasant with a stone. In this regard, he is somewhat confident. Because since discovering that An Youming's spiritual method can teleport, he has been practicing throwing.

However, this approach does not work. He couldn't get too close to the pheasant, and as soon as he got close to the pheasant, the slightest sound from what he stepped on could alarm the pheasant. Therefore, it is unrealistic to hit a pheasant from a long distance with a stone.

If the hard ones don't work, then you can only come with the soft ones. Hao Jichen remembered that when he was in another world, he had seen someone catch mice with a mouse cage. The method is simple, prepare a cage with a little food in it. When a rat eats food, it triggers a trap and locks it up.

The same principle is applied to the capture of pheasants. Make a cage first, and then put pheasant food underneath the cage to attract pheasants to come and eat. When a pheasant enters the range of the cage and eats with relish, I cover the pheasant.

Lan Ruo made a cage out of branches, and Hao Jichen and Su Xiaowen went to dig up insects and various grains. This is all after observing the pheasant for two or three days, and only then can I find out the habits and eating habits of the pheasant.

Looking at the cage, Su Xiaowen felt that it was not reliable to rely on the cage alone, "As soon as this cage is covered, the pheasant will definitely condense the wood spirit method to prop up the cage." At that time, it will be necessary to rely on Ah Chen's teleportation to wrap the black qi around the wooden cage, and don't let the pheasant use spiritual methods, so that he can catch the pheasant. ”

Hao Jichen nodded, "I also thought of this, don't worry, I am confident that I can press the cage instantly, otherwise the pheasant will escape." ”

Not only did they find out the eating habits of pheasants, but Hao Jichen and others also figured out the foraging time of pheasants. Before the pheasant comes, set a trap in the pheasant area.

Su Xiaowen propped up the cage with a branch, placed insects and grains under the cage, then tied thin rattan sticks to the bottom of the sticks, and then buried the rattan with leaves to prevent the pheasants from feeling wrong in the slightest.

When it was time for the pheasants to come out to feed, one of the pheasants noticed the delicacy under the cage and ran over instantly. It didn't want to share the food in front of it with its companions, and there were no spiritual fluctuations in the vicinity of the food, so there would be no danger.

Watching the pheasant approach step by step, Hao Jichen was very nervous with two stones in his hands. He was afraid that the spiritual magic of one stone would be canceled out, so he prepared an extra one.

Everything went according to plan, and the pheasant slowly approached the cage, and when he saw that there was no danger, he immediately feasted on it.

Su Xiaowen shouted, "Ah Chen." ”

Hao Jichen had already prepared his posture, as soon as the wooden stick holding up the cage was released, he would throw a stone.

Su Xiaowen pulled hard, the wooden stick fell, and the cage covered the pheasant. In the next moment, Hao Jichen appeared next to the cage and drove the demon spirit to wrap around the cage, preventing the pheasant from having a chance to use his spiritual magic.

Su Xiaowen held the pheasant in his hand, and Hao Jichen finally couldn't help laughing, "The emperor lives up to his wishes, and finally let me catch you." Haha! After that, we will eat pheasants, and Sister Lan Ruo will no longer have to go down to the river to fish. ”

Su Xiaowen used to be in the countryside and killed chickens with his mother a few times. The best way to kill a chicken to remove chicken feathers is to soak the chicken in hot water and then take it out to remove the chicken feathers.

There was no pot to boil water here, so Su Xiaowen had to put a very thin stone on the fire. Then condense the water spirit method on it and let the fire boil the water. Then put the chicken in the water so that the feathers can be removed.

Watching the pheasant roasting on the fire, Hao Jichen kept swallowing saliva. The scent of chicken wafts through the air and is very tempting. After the barbecue, the chicken fat drops down and drips on the fire, and the fire will be stronger.

After roasting the pheasant, Hao Jichen tore off a chicken leg as soon as possible, and took a bite of it, his mouth was full of tender chicken, which was very satisfying.

Su Xiaowen and Lan Ruo also left the other chicken leg for Hao Jichen, but Hao Jichen said that he wouldn't eat anything. Su Xiaowen felt that his status was low, and with Princess Shark Ling by his side, how could he be embarrassed to eat.

Hao Jichen said: "Sister Lan Ruo, you are injured, you should eat this chicken leg." ”

Lan Ruo's injury was internal, but fortunately, it was not fatal. But it will take some time to recover. Recently, I had to go down to the river to catch fish, and my injuries were more serious.

So when Hao Jichen saw the pheasant, he made up his mind to catch the pheasant and no longer let Lan Ruo go down to the river to catch fish.

Hao Jichen is a small man, and after eating a chicken leg and a few pieces of meat, he is already very full. Lan Ruo is a woman, and she doesn't eat much, so she will give Su Xiaowen all the rest. A pheasant, so that the three of them are very full.

Every day that Su Xiaowen passed, he carved a horizontal line on the stone. It's the eighth day of living in this woods. The people of the Dharma Protector Temple would definitely continue to search for them, and after the last battle, they would definitely know more about Hao Jichen's spiritual method. If you want to escape, it is even more difficult.

But what can be done? Hao Jichen and Su Xiaowen didn't know. What we can do now is to continue to live in the forest. And this forest is not dangerous, with the three of them, can cope with it.

It's just that Lan Ruo is suffering, and he is injured, so he can't go to the doctor.

Since Hao Jichen started catching pheasants, Lan Ruo no longer has to go down to the river to catch fish, he has enough time to rest every day, and his complexion is much better.

After eating meat for so many days, you must always eat some vegetables and food to synthesize, so that people's bodies can be healthier.

Looking at the flowers and plants in front of him, Lan Ruo was thinking, he couldn't be afraid of poisonous flowers and plants that he hadn't seen before, right?

She thinks that if the plants in the neighborhood were poisonous, there would be some small animal bones nearby. The bones will smell rancid, the environment will definitely become a miasma, where can you still see the mountains and rivers like now.

She took advantage of the fact that Hao Jichen and Su Xiaowen went out to catch pheasants, and tried to find wild vegetables. In the past, when I lived on an overseas island, I often ate wild vegetables. She has seen a lot of wild vegetables, and she should be able to distinguish them.

After Lan Ruo found the wild vegetables she thought were wild vegetables, she tried them herself. She didn't think that the wild vegetables she found were poisonous, at most she just ate some weeds that were not delicious. After a while, when he was fine, he dug it up and cooked it for them to eat.

On this day, the sun sets. After eating pheasants, the three of them leaned against the stone wall and felt the afterglow of the setting sun pass through the trees and hit them in the face.

Hao Jichen asked: "Sister Lan Ruo, you Shark Spirit clan live on an overseas island, and they are usually safe, how could they be caught by Blazing Yunzheng this time?"

Lan Ruo's eyes were gloomy, "Our Shark Spirit clan lives on an overseas island, and we have been safe and sound for generations. And around our island, there will be many ferocious sea monsters, forming a natural barrier. Not to mention ordinary ships, even pirates who kill people without blinking an eye dare not set foot in that sea. If they had stepped into that area, they would have been torn apart by the sea monsters before they even saw us. ”

A tear condensed into a pearl from the corner of Lan Ruo's eye, "But they still crossed the sea monster's protective line and rushed towards us in a boat." They were in groups, and ships were parked on the surface of the sea, densely packed.

"Our army is no match for them at all, my people fled in all directions, my father and mother died in the battle, and my brother fled with his people. On the way to escape, I was unfortunately caught. I knew I couldn't survive, so I had to fight to the death. But they knew that I was the princess of the Shark Spirit royal family, so they showed mercy and did not kill me. ”

Hao Jichen believes that if there is a patrol, it may not be like this. Even if you fight, you can at least fight those pirates in the water. Maybe it's because there are sea monsters outside the island, so they let their guard down.

"Because of this, they gave up hunting down the rest of my people. Holding me hostage to find the treasures of the island, the colored stones and the pearls condensed from the tears of our Shark Spirit royal family. Those stones, to us, are just ordinary ornaments. There are many mountains, and when we see that they are beautiful, we use them.

"I know that these stones are incomparably precious stones on land. ”

Lan Ruo gently wiped away the tears that had not condensed into pearls, and Hao Jichen said: "For us on land, the place where the Shark Spirit Clan is located is a treasure house. This is what is written in the book, and everyone knows it. So many people want to find you, all want to get your treasures. ”

Lan Ruo said: "Not only that, but our Shark Spirit Imperial Clan, in the eyes of the humans on the land, is also a huge wealth. We, the Shark Spirit Royal Family, will leave a drop of blood and tears after death. This tear is the blood of our Shark Spirit royal family, and it has the effect of resurrecting the dead. The painstaking efforts left by the ancestors are to protect future generations. Unexpectedly, after the people on land found out, they began to hunt and kill us constantly. In order to get the blood and tears of our Shark Spirit royal family. For thousands of years, we have been hunted and killed, and in the end, there are fewer and fewer people in our Shark Spirit Imperial Family. We fled overseas to survive. ”

Hao Jichen sighed helplessly in his heart, in this world ruled by natural spirits, among all the beast spirits. I'm afraid that only the beast spirits on the northern grasslands can be freer, and they will not be harmed by the natural spirits of the Central Plains.
