Chapter X

Hearing this, Liang Jian raised his eyebrows and looked at him, and said jokingly, "Snake soup, I didn't expect you to have such a heavy taste, originally I only wanted snake skin." ”

Qin Yue choked a mouthful, seeing that the meat of the big snake on the ground was fresh and delicate, and it was a pity to lose it, so he said calmly, "Why can't you eat snake meat?"

Liang Jian smiled, and then nodded in agreement, "Well, that's right, but I won't do it, how about you stew snake soup?"

Qin Yue was stunned for a moment, a little resistant, the snake was the same as a mollusk to her, the shape was terrifying, and her scalp was numb when she looked at it. But thinking about the wolf meat that has been eaten for a few days and is difficult to swallow, although this fresh snake meat looks ugly, it is still meat, isn't it?

She resigned herself to chopping the serpent into several large pieces, cleaning them in a nearby pool, cutting them into small pieces of meat, and throwing them into a pot to boil over high heat. This pot is naturally still the half of the green fruit shell.

There was no salt, no seasoning, and the two chewed on the tender snake meat, although they couldn't taste it, they could finally swallow it.

The two of them had never seen salt since they came here, and Qin Yue really didn't dare to try to drink raw animal blood, and now she couldn't feel the lack of salt in her body, but she knew that the human body couldn't lack salt for a long time.

Therefore, they also made it their goal to find table salt along the way, but they did not find anything for the time being.

At night, the two of them slept next to each other by the fire, except for the unaccustomed a few days ago, Qin Yue was already very comfortable sleeping with Liang Jian.

At the same time, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, the occasional couple of intimate in a year of marriage was like coping with business, but I didn't want to come here for a few days, but the relationship between the two became intimate.

And Liang Jian seemed to be very accustomed to having someone in her arms, reaching out to hug her slender waist tightly, her chin next to the soft hair on the top of her head, with a satisfied expression.

For the next few days, the two of them traveled as usual, but their luck was not so good.

The journey was very hard, Qin Yue had a lot of blisters on his feet, they had to avoid places infested by wild beasts, and they learned to distinguish animal droppings.

It was especially troublesome when it rained heavily, they had to take shelter from the rain, and if they could not find dry land and dry branches to start a fire, they could only sleep all night wrapped in wolf skins.

The trees were becoming more and more thin, and they often climbed the peaks and looked into the distance to discern the basic directions.

There are a lot of rocks along the way, one mountain after another, and there is no end in sight, and often they take a long time to climb a mountain. In the crevices of the rocks under the rocks, wild weeds with bent branches grow everywhere, and there are vegetation-covered peaks in the distance, but they are really small compared to the depths of the jungle that are hundreds or thousands of years old.

They climbed under a high mountain, and they saw a flat land, much low-lying, surrounded by high mountains, like a valley.

The surface of the ground is densely covered with green vegetation, vines spread unscrupulously in the sun, and there are many entanglements in the sparse trees on the flat ground.

Qin Yue looked at the shape of the vine leaves a little familiar, and when she got closer, wasn't this a vine with green fruits?

She thought that green fruits only grew in the depths of the jungle, but she didn't expect that in the valley, the sun was strong, and the vines grew more luxuriantly.

She brushed aside the dark green vine branches and leaves, and sure enough, there were large and small green fruits hanging inside, and the smaller green fruits had jagged beast gnawing marks.

I don't know what kind of beast has such sharp teeth that even the green fruits that can't be broken at a height of nearly ten meters can gnaw on them.

Liang Jian stepped forward to take a look, recognized that the husk he usually used to cook soup was the same variety, and said, "What is in this fruit? “

Qin Yue nodded thoughtfully, such a hard husk beast can gnaw open, and the fruit inside must be non-toxic and edible.

Thinking of the flour-like fruit inside the husk, Qin Yue felt a pain in her flesh, flour, what a good food, she just missed it alive and gnawed on the wolf meat that was difficult to chew for so many days.

She took out her Mongolian knife and followed the gap gnawed by the beast, and pried open the whole green fruit, easily forming two semicircles, one side empty, and the other side wrapped in a film of flour-like fruit, which was blue and yellow.

Thinking about it, this kind of green fruit is not yet ripe, and when it is ripe, it is pale yellow, so it is no wonder that it is smaller.

She picked up a little powder with a knife and tasted it, the delicate powder was similar to starch, but with a sweet taste, and the taste was good.

She raised her head and said to Liang Jian: "This powder is edible, and the taste is a little sweet." ”

Liang Jian nodded, and was about to say something, when a strange rustling sound came, and he looked keenly in the direction of the sound, only to see a beast rushing from behind them.

The beast was the size of a buffalo, black-brown with short, fur and fangs, like a wild boar, but much larger than the boar they knew.

Liang Jian reacted quickly, but the wild boar's speed was so fast that it rushed towards them like crazy, and there were several deep scars on the black-brown fur of its abdomen.

At this time, it was too late to attack with a bow and arrow, Qin Yue quickly handed him the Mongolian knife, and the two of them dodged sideways at the moment when the wild boar immediately collided.

Unexpectedly, the wild boar turned around and attacked them again, with a fierce light in his eyes, as if he wanted to fight them to the death.

It was an open space, covered with vines and no rocky trees to obstruct them, and the two of them were naked to the eyes of wild boars. Liang Jian knew that this wild boar regarded them as enemies, so he could only harden them, but fortunately, the wild boar had been injured before, and with a fierce strength, in fact, his physical strength gradually lost his limbs, and he had to take advantage of the weakness to fight quickly.

With his previous experience in fighting wolves, he was able to dodge a little faster at the moment, and when the boar's strong forelimbs were about to step on him, he rolled over and climbed onto the boar's back.

The sharp Mongolian knife in his hand plunged into the boar's neck, and the intense pain caused the boar to howl wildly, and he ran haphazardly across the clearing, trying to throw off the man who was riding on his back.

Qin Yue saw Liang Jian lying on the back of the wild boar, and was about to be thrown down several times, his heart was tightly clenched, and he hurriedly ran over, but saw that Liang Jian had been thrown off by the wild boar and fell to the ground.

At this time, the wild boar was already struggling to die and died.

Qin Yue hurriedly stepped forward to help Liang Jian up, with nervousness on his face, and said with concern, "Are you okay?"

As he spoke, he lifted his clothes to check whether there were any wounds, and he was relieved to see that there were no obvious injuries outside the bruise on his back.

Liang Jian took her wrist, stood up, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, let's go, go see the wild boar." ”

"Good fellow, this wild boar is so big that it can catch up with the cow. ”

For being able to kill such a big wild boar, Liang Jian still couldn't hide his pride.

Qin Yue glanced at Liang Jian, who fell off the back of the wild boar, and was still like a nobody, and his eyes fell on the wild boar again, such a huge wild boar is indeed rare.

The Mongolian knife was still stuck in the neck of the wild boar, and Liang Jian stepped on the pig's head, pulled out the Mongolian knife, put it on the scabbard and put it in his pocket.

Hearing only an exclamation, he suddenly looked back.

But he saw that there were seven or eight primitive people dressed in animal skins and holding stone spears around him, and one of them caught Qin Yue.
