Chapter 35: Accumulation (Modified)
It is said that people have to have hope in life, whether it is a car, a house, a beautiful woman, or a rich tyrant and a god, as long as you can see hope, the motivation will be endless.
Wang Yang is like this, at this time he is like a strong man who has fallen off a cliff, accidentally dragged by the old pine of the sky, and he clung to it and did not let go.
When everyone saw him bring back so many prey, they surrounded him in surprise and expressed their excitement.
Someone had already taken the prey, disemboweled, and was ready to feast.
Wang Yang was not ambiguous, pointed to their belts, and wanted to change them, bringing nuts.
He didn't bother to peel the skin and bleed it himself, leaving it to others, he had more important things to do.
He came to the platform outside the cave, where two freshly made wooden barrels were placed, and Zhang San was working on the third.
During this period of time, Zhang San has been doing this in his spare time, and it is estimated that it has become some kind of pastime for him.
It's also thanks to the fact that I didn't stop him before, but now I can use it.
He took a barrel, walked back to the cave, picked up the stone cone and began to dig the hole.
After tasting the sweetness today, he plans to make another trap.
Seeing this, Zhang San learned it in a good way, and chiseled while watching Wang Yang do it.
Wang Yang looked at him, thinking about whether to keep a complete wooden barrel, but after thinking about it for a long time, he decided not to, now it is more important to get more food.
Anyway, you can do it again later.
After several hours of hard work, the two wooden barrels were finally ready, and Wang Yang fell asleep with a sweet longing.
Early the next morning, he took the nuts he had obtained yesterday and came to the Forest of Bones.
Due to the problem of carrying, he only brought two wooden barrels, put down one, took one to the fruit forest, set the trap, and returned to the Bone Forest.
Take another barrel back to the fruit tree with the "One" engraved on it.
He had explored the left and right sides of the place, but on the left, there were no fruit trees.
There is no one on the right, and it is the territory of the black bear.
Naturally, he wouldn't go to the right to provoke the black bear, so he went to the left.
Although there are no fruit trees on the left, there are definitely small animals that can ambush a trap here.
It's just that he is very uncomfortable here, there are a lot of snakes and lizards, and it is very uncomfortable to watch.
After the ambush, he returned to the cave, took another wooden barrel, and went to the fruit tree engraved with "One", and laid a trap.
This territory is a saber-toothed tiger, but Wang Yang is no longer afraid of it, knowing that it will not go up trees.
After setting it up, it was back in the Forest of Bones.
He dug through the dirt that wasn't thick, opened the lid, put the nuts in, and buried them again, very quickly, and with the time it had taken before, he had been in the forest for an hour.
In an hour, there should be prey on the bait.
He ran to a dozen fruit trees and found the barrel covered, and a small animal trapped inside.
There's no nonsense, it's a mess of thorns when you go up, and when you open it, it's still a civet cat.
Wang Yang sighed, this is a rush to give it to me to eat, we can't help but accept it.
Loaded on, he quickly came to the left side of the fruit tree "One", and found that the barrel was covered, but there was a large wild cat circling the barrel.
The wild cat was indeed big enough, comparable to the average lynx, and there was a big difference from the domestic cat, the fur was particularly long, whether it was a mane, or a tail, it is worth mentioning that its tail looked very large due to its long hair, similar to a squirrel, dragging a broom.
The whole looks like wearing a thick down jacket.
The color of the hair is smooth, the back is yellowish-brown, and slowly transitions down to yellow, and the hair under the belly transitions to off-white.
Its eyes are very bright and cute, which makes Wang Yang think of the Siberian forest cat, in fact, it is very likely to be this breed.
When Wang Yang saw that it had turned around twice, he pushed forward against the wooden barrel, trying to open the wooden barrel, and was immediately very dissatisfied, and issued a warning "woo".
It was stunned, turned its head to look at Wang Yang, and immediately jumped to the side and hid.
But Wang Yang always felt that it had not left, and had been watching him in the dark.
He didn't dare to be careless, who knew if the big cat would attack him like a lynx, pressed the barrel, slowly retreated to the big tree, leaned against the big tree, and then looked down at the prey in the barrel.
"Twitter~"
It is a small mountain mouse with brown fur all over its body, and it moves like a running sweet potato, full of joy.
Wang Yang grinned, not to mention how happy he was, and in his smile, it ended up in life.
With two prey, he came to the bottom of the fruit tree "One", where there was also a prey in the scheme.
This one is a squirrel.
After solving it sharply, Wang Yang didn't dare to stay in the forest for long, the smell of blood on his body was already very strong, and he was afraid of causing bad trouble, so he turned around and ran back to the cave.
The friends were bored, and when they saw that Wang Yang had caught three small animals so quickly, they all rushed over with joy and stared at him with bright eyes.
"Don't be greedy, whoever dares to steal me will break his leg!"
Wang Yang murdered them, then handed over the prey to them and told them to go to the stream to clean up the prey.
This work doesn't need to be specially arranged, because adults do it every day, and they often participate as a game, so there is no need for guidance.
It was Zhang San, who actually put down the production of the barrel and also had to process the prey.
Wang Yang directly pulled him back to the barrel, and explained to him how important the barrel is.
After explaining what he had to do, Wang Yang came to the stream, cleaned the bag containing the three prey several times, grabbed some mud and wiped it to eliminate the smell of blood, and then continued on the road.
But as soon as he reached the mouth of the valley, he stopped again.
His goal is to make everyone realize that there is not enough food and take the initiative to find more food, instead of racking their brains and exhausting themselves to help them.
If you can help for a while, you can't help for a lifetime.
If they don't understand the lack of food, maybe they can survive this winter and have a bigger population next year? And the year after? What about the year after graduation?
It is impossible to solve everything alone.
Thinking of this, he returned to the depths of the cave, took the equivalent amount of the air-dried meat in the part that belonged to the air-dried meat, put it in his waist bag, and returned to the Forest of Bones.
When he got there, he dug up the soil again, put the dried meat in a wooden barrel, covered it, and buried it.
Then he went to the various traps to get his prey.
On this day, he harvested thirteen small animals, including rabbits, pheasants, civets, moles, mountain mice, and the like.
Add more and more nuts to him, and he alone gets everyone's daily intake.
Of course, this is calculated by eating sparingly.
According to this calculation, in the next ten days, as long as he is lucky, he will be able to get more than ten days of food, and if he tries hard in winter, he should be able to almost get through it.
As long as you get through it, it's spring!
