Chapter 4 Fishing Master
Everyone looked at Yao Ran with strange eyes, and Yao Ran's trembling arm reminded himself, just crossed over, I seem to have knowledge beyond them, and active thinking, immature is no different from a baby, not to mention how to hunt in the jungle, I can't even bite down on the half-baked meat. The pen www.biquge.info looked at his round belly. I'm not fit for this kind of outdoor sport, at least not right now, and I need to play to my strengths to survive. If you continue to be curious like this, you will be played to death.
Hemu took out his bone knife and stepped forward to start dividing the prey, today's harvest was quite rich, catching four big fat rabbits, two pheasants, a sheep, and a deer, as the one who put down the deer, Yao Ran can give priority to the part he wants, but...... I can't cut it!
Sitting under the tree and watching Hemu and a man named Shanshi separate the prey, Yao Ran was tired and didn't want to move, but when Hemu pulled out the deer tendons, Yao Ran stood up and walked to Hemu's side, "Give me this deer tendon, give it to me", looking at the deer tendons with the thickness of the little finger in Hemu's hand, Yao Ran's eyes emitted a touch of wisdom. He Mu didn't think much about it, so he gave the deer tendon to Yao Ran, and put the warm and humid deer tendon of the prey object into Yao Ran's hand, and with the deer tendon he could make a bowstring. After choosing a suitable wood for elasticity, you can make a bow and arrow. The corners of Yao Ran's mouth inadvertently slid up an arc.
The way back because everyone was not walking very fast with the prey on their backs, the sun was in the sky, and Yao Ran began to feel that his primitive life was beginning to move in a beautiful direction.
Out of the jungle and wading through the shallows of the snow-capped mountains and rivers, several women and children were holding wooden spears by the river to spear fish, Yao Ran saw Xiaoyu's figure standing tall and waving and shouting at Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu also saw him, Xiaoyu ran back to the shore and carried the three fat fish that he forked, came to Yao Ran's side, and saw Yao Ran carrying a thick beast leg, and laughed happily.
Back in front of his cave, Yao Ran sat in front of the bonfire, took out the deer tendons to test the elasticity, and found a problem: the ideal is plump, and the reality is very skinny. What should be done with a bow and arrow? Before the crossing, I had seen the primitive technology, but I hadn't seen how to make bows and arrows. The original technique suddenly remembered, I can make rope. Nowadays, everyone still uses wooden spears to spear fish, and the efficiency of fishing is very low, and it is much faster to use fishing nets. Just do it, Yao Ran ran down the slow slope quickly, cut the bark of a few small trees with a stone spear, said that the small trees also have the thickness of an arm, resisted dozens of catties of bark, and staggered back to the mouth of the cave in front of his house. The meat had not yet been roasted, and a rope about a meter long had been placed in front of Yao Ran. I've already started knitting a second one in my hand.
Xiaoyu watched Yao Ran's movements curiously, almost roasting the skinny legs. Thinking of the embarrassment when eating meat yesterday, when eating dinner yesterday, Yao Ran was nervous and strange Today, I didn't expect to have my own cave and woman, Yao Ran kept working in his hands, and told Xiaoyu to go and cut the leg meat into pieces of meat slightly larger than his thumb and wear it on the same branches as the fish, and put it next to the fire to smoke and roast, and asked Xiaoyu to sit next to him, teach her how to weave the rope, and started the first one not skillfully, but this operation is simple and uncomplicated work, and soon Xiaoyu learned it. After eating this barbecue that can at least be swallowed, Yao Ran continued to take Xiaoyu to weave the rope with a satisfied face, although he didn't know what he was doing with these strips, but Xiaoyu could snuggle up with his man, with a happy smile on his face.
A bend of the moon has hung in the sky, more than fifty ropes more than one meter long have been placed in front of Yao Ran, Yao Ran began to try to knot the net, the rope is easy to knot the net, Xiaoyu sat on the fire and watched Yao Ran crawl forward and back fiddling with the rope, and unconsciously fell asleep. Yao Ran put the animal skin that Hemu gave him on Xiaoyu's body, until the sky was white, and a two-meter-square fishing net was completed in Yao Ran's hands, although he had stayed up all night, but as an otaku who stayed up late and went to work the next day, he still ran to the bank of the river with great interest, only to find that there was no bait, and ran back to the cave to take the venison left from yesterday, and used sharp stones to cut a strip of flesh, and grabbed a handful and pocketed it in his own hide. He ran to the river and tied one end of the fishing net with a wooden spear, while he stood in the stream and dragged the other fishing net into the icy water. After sprinkling some shredded meat, I heard the sound of fish rushing to eat in the water when I boarded up. Yao Ran immediately ran to the shore, and the fishing net in his hand had weight. The place where the forked wooden spear was received. Yao Ran dragged the wooden spear to the shore again, and the fish in the fishing net were very powerful in the water, and it was very difficult to walk to the shore. Moreover, the net was too flat and not fast enough to land, and only four fish were caught in the net. Apparently more fish escaped while the net was reeled, so Yao Ran put the fish he caught on the shore with a rope around his waist through the gills. I adjusted the curvature of the net again, and there were a few stones tied under the net. Went into the water again, this time standing in the upper reaches of the wooden spear, convenient for collecting the net, and scattered some shredded meat, the stupid fish of the primitive society, no one used bait to trick them into swarming. Once again, the net closing action was smooth, and the power in the water was much more than the last time. Yao Ran gritted his teeth and quickly dragged the net ashore. Although the grinding palms were painful, the result this time was to make Yao Ran jump up. There were ten big fish in this net, each weighing five or six pounds. Hang the fish on both ends of the wooden spear, which carries dozens of catties of harvest on his back and walks in the direction of the cave. On the way, he thought that with fishing nets, he would not have to venture with them to hunt in the primeval forest.
This fish meat dozens of catties will definitely not be eaten today, how to marinate the fish, and what to use salt? Yao Ran thought as he walked, and when he got home, he saw that his long-legged wife had gotten up and was cutting meat and preparing to bake the "meat skewers" in his mouth for his man.
Yao Ran enjoyed his wife's expression very much, but he thought that so many fish could not be preserved, and he became melancholy again. Isn t it okay to dig a puddle can you put it for a few more days so that you don t end up feeding the flies yao ran and xiaoyu had breakfast and began to pick up the stones. Begin digging a pit by the side of the stream that flows through itself. A dozen people from the hunting party had already gathered at the bottom of the hillside. After Hemu came down the mountain, he didn't see the new big man, so he walked up the hillside to look for it, and saw that the two of them were lying on the ground, trying to dig the pit, the soil by the stream was moist and easy to dig, and the soil around the two had been piled up half a meter high. Just as he was about to speak and ask Yao Ran to set off hunting, he saw more than a dozen big fish on the ground that were still alive. "Yao Ran, where did this come from?" Kawaki asked in surprise. Yao Ran, who was in full swing, heard someone talking, wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned around and said, "I caught it in the morning, the village chief, come home in the evening and get one back." "Kawaki took a closer look and saw that there were no scars on this fish, it was not forked, could it be that this tall man is an expert fisherman? Hemu remembered that he didn't hear what Yao said when he saw the fish. Yao Ran repeated and shouted, "Village chief, I went out to hunt and caught rabbit cubs today, and brought back a few live ones for me." I'll trade two fish for one," Kawaki froze again, "two big fish for a little rabbit without meat to live?" Seeing Yao Ran nodded. Although Kawaki didn't understand, he agreed. Said to Yao Ran, "Let's go." ”
"I'm not going to hunt today."
Seeing so many fish and trees on the ground also expressed understanding. He turned around and walked down the hill.
The pit was dug more than half a meter deep, and a large pile of yellow mud was piled up on the side. Yao Ran began to open an arm-thick canal upstream to divert water into the pit, and opened the same canal downstream to release water. At the edge of the pit, a circle of stones was piled up, and yellow mud was used to fix it, so that the fish tank with water in and out of the water was ready. The big fish that were caught first were already dying of thirst. The second net is all alive. Xiaoyu poured all the fish into the pit, and the whole pit was filled at once, and there was basically no room to move. But it's not going to make these fish die prematurely. The remaining yellow mud is just enough to build a stove. Today's fish meat is enough for Yao Ran and the two of them to eat. So there was no then light rain to go fishing. Just let Xiaoyu collect some of the bark used yesterday, no matter how much she collects, and come back when the sun is in the middle of the sky. Xiaoyu obediently took the sharp stone piece given by Yao Ran and went down the mountain wearing the improved animal skin that Yao Ran had improved. It is very simple to say that the skin is improved, but a hole is made in the middle to reach into the head, and the two sides of the garment are threaded with ropes. Although you don't carry it with you, it's still much lighter than just draping it over your shoulders and tying it around your waist. I used Xiaoyu's original clothes to make a pair of pants. Except for being tighter and having no other problems, Yao Ran is full of confidence, and he will lose weight after getting familiar with the environment here.
The stove is almost up, and there is not much yellow mud left. Yao Ran began to dig a pit in the open space above the fish tank again. Before you know it, the sun is already noon, and two meals a day make the pot-bellied man who eats three meals a day very uncomfortable. I'm hungry now.
Xiaoyu staggered back with a large bundle of bark. And they are all already dialed inner skins, and the difference is to draw the wire and rub the rope. There is a small flame in the built stove, the whole stove is half a meter high, and the size of the water tank is boxy. There is a small square hole underneath where you can add firewood.
Seeing Xiaoyu coming back, Yao Ran greeted him, took the bark in Xiaoyu's hand, and asked Xiaoyu to rest first, Xiaoyu curiously looked left and right around the stove, but he couldn't see what it was for.
