【Chapter 123】Protein supplementation is urgently needed
Eating only plants every day, Wang Xiaotie felt that his body was getting weaker and weaker. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info doesn't even have the strength to cut down trees now, so he can only stay in the shelter honestly, and follow Shoko's big eyes.
This oasis is not as barren as the desert, and it is almost impossible to see any animals other than the desert beetle. Wang Xiaotie knew that near this oasis, there were a large number of coyotes, and they had close contact with him across the wall.
In fact, in addition to coyotes, snakes and rats can also be seen. It's just that Wang Xiaotie is not mentally prepared to hunt these disgusting-sounding creatures.
Now, it's time to think about eating these disgusting things. If he didn't supplement protein, Wang Xiaotie estimated that he would be paralyzed in a shelter like a patient, waiting for death to come.
Although there are many vegetarians in the world, survival survivors who only consume plants cannot survive in the wilderness. The main source of protein has become a vegetarian urge, in the wild, you can't guarantee that you can find a protein plant, so animal flesh has become one of the necessary foods.
While searching for food, Wang Xiaotie saw a number of caves, which were very densely distributed in an area, and seemed to be connected.
With such living habits, Wang Xiaotie guessed that there might be a large number of gerbils living in the cave. It could be one of Wang's alternate targets today.
As for why it is an alternative target, the main reason is that Wang Xiaotie has a subconscious resistance to eating mice. In his mind, all rats are dirty, smelly, and carry a lot of bacteria on their bodies.
Carrying a mountain knife and finding a two-meter-long wooden stick, Wang Xiaotie climbed out of his camp with difficulty.
"Hey~ Let's find out if there are any snakes nearby! I really can't do it, and then find a way to catch mice. ”
Wang Xiaotie is also very resistant to snakes, but at least he has eaten them before, and he has also caught them with his own hands, and he still feels numb when he thinks about it. However, that experience gave him great courage now.
In his mysterious mission, the requirement is to catch 5 rattlesnakes and 5 killer scorpions, but the strange thing is that along the way to the present, other snakes have encountered a few times, but rattlesnakes have never encountered once. As for the mysterious killer scorpion, uh~ Until now, Wang Xiaotie doesn't know what it looks like.
Rattlesnakes, as the name suggests, make a rattle from their tails.
At the end of their tail there is a string of rings, for the remnants of multiple molts, when encountering enemies or rapid activities, quickly swing the tail rings of the tail, can swing 40~60 times per second, can make a loud sound for a long time, so that the enemy does not dare to approach, or is scared away.
What makes Wang Xiaotie the most headache is that the rattlesnake is a real venomous snake. And they are extremely poisonous, and the venom hidden in the tips of the teeth only takes a small amount to kill a sturdy adult.
They bite very quickly, from opening their mouths, bouncing their heads close to their targets, injecting venom with their teeth, and then retracting their heads, in no more than 1 second. Survivors who have been bitten by rattlesnakes are often unable to see their movements, resulting in inability to dodge, and finally poisoning or even death.
As the temperature rises, all animals take refuge in cool places to escape the heat, even snakes. If you look patiently, you may be able to spot them in the weeds or behind the rocks.
Wang Xiaotie did not have any experience in catching snakes, but he knew very well that for such an animal that was not too large, a long log was the best weapon.
As long as the snake's head is held far away with a piece of wood, and then the snake's head is quickly chopped off with a mountain knife, then there will not be much danger.
Thinking that he might eat roast snake meat tonight, the corners of Wang Xiaotie's mouth couldn't stop drooling. The snake looks scary, but it tastes good!
God made a big joke with Wang Xiaotie.
The little snakes that he would normally see inadvertently searched all the corners today, but he didn't find a single one. This search lasted three or four hours, and until now, the hungry Wang Xiaotie still found nothing.
"Fuck your uncle! Where are all these guys hiding? When you don't want to eat, you always come out to scare Lao Tzu. Now Lao Tzu wants to open it, but they are hiding! Jinnima's essence has been completed! ”
If he continues to look for it, Wang Xiaotie estimates that his efforts will be in vain. So I had to return to the camp unwillingly.
"Today is probably the day when the snake comes to the eldest aunt, and they are all hiding in the cave to recuperate!"
Wang Xiaotie felt that his luck was indeed a little back, but he had to eat meat today, even if it was a mouse. It's time to implement a backup plan!
Catching rats is much less psychologically burdensome than catching snakes. Rats, animals that live at the bottom of the food chain, in addition to being timid, have also earned the glorious title of "everyone shouts and fights".
Even those girls who are afraid of rats, when they start a rush, will use slippers and brooms, shouting while going up to dismember the corpse of a little mouse that has fled in a hurry.
Gerbils are arid rodents with an unusually large family of hundreds of different forms and names. They are also widely distributed and can be found in deserts, steppes, foothill deserts, Gobi and deserts in Africa, India, as well as other parts of Asia and Europe.
Wang Xiaotie wants to follow Master De's example and use fire to wipe out this group of gerbils.
I found a lot of firewood, some wet and some dry. Wang Xiaotie first stuffed dry firewood into some of the holes, then lit it with fire, and when it was almost burned, he stuffed the damp firewood into it.
The effect is really good, those holes are beginning to smoke wildly, Wang Xiaotie held a stick, stared seriously at the only few holes in front of him that were not stuffed with firewood, waiting for the moment when the gerbils stepped out of the house, and affectionately sent a head-on blow.
Waiting left and right, Wang Xiaotie held the wooden stick a little embarrassed, looked at the calm and abnormal hole entrance, and fell into an unbelievable situation.
"I'm rubbing! Are these rats all Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Can such a strong smoke stand up? This is absolutely unscientific! ”
Until all the firewood burned out, Wang Xiaotie still didn't see a mouse that was going to escape.
"Did you find the wrong one? There are no rats in there at all? It's just that some animals are full of food and have nothing to do to dig the pit? ”
Wang Xiaotie, who was unwilling, picked up the mountain opening knife, followed a hole, and began to dig underground.
