Chapter 572 The Snow Season Coming Ahead of Schedule, How Can This Be Called Sycophancy?
At night, it was still Lao Zhao who stayed to take care of the bacon.
The first two times were Lao Zhao stayed to take care of it, Wu Hu originally said that this time he would let him stay and take care of it, but Lao Zhao felt that Wu Hu was already a great hero of their 18th group today, and he couldn't let him work so hard anymore. So, taking care of the bacon is still done by him.
At the same time, he also scraped the fat on the lion's skin with a knife, and refined the lion oil that Wu Hu collected from the cougar's abdomen today.
They now have mutton fat, deer oil, and lion oil, and of these three oils, mutton fat is the most, followed by deer oil, and lion oil is the least.
However, the mutton fat has been used up a lot by them, and the thing they used to prevent freezing at the beginning was the mutton fat, although the fishy smell in the mutton fat was very strong, but there was no condition at that time, so they could only use that thing, and now they are basically no longer used.
As for the lion skin, you can use the powder ground from bone residue to soak it, and treat it simply, after the lion skin is processed, it can be used to keep out the cold.
However, Wu Hu felt that this thing should be handed over to the program team to help deal with it, and they could go to a professional to deal with it, and then he would be able to get a good lion skin.
This thing only needs to pay some money, and it can be turned into his personal belongings, and it is a personal belongings that are legal and compliant, and have complete procedures.
However, this kind of thing is not enough to be humane with outsiders, so as not to be criticized. Thinking that he is a big star, he actually took the lead in collecting this kind of thing, isn't this a bad head?
Therefore, this kind of thing can only be understood, not spoken.
Don't shoot, come quietly!
However, if the program team is willing to let them exchange lion skins for food, Wu Hu doesn't mind exchanging lion skins and deer skins and the pair of antlers.
In the second half of the night, feeling that the lion meat was almost smoked, Lao Zhao got up and sorted out the lion meat and hung it in the storage room.
At this moment, he felt a chill on his face, and then something like cotton wool floated down on the edge of the campfire.
"It's snowing again!"
Lao Zhao frowned, but he didn't care too much, after all, the snow season was coming! He had experienced the first snow the night before, and he didn't care too much about seeing this snowflake again.
After cleaning up, he didn't put out the campfire either, because more and more snowflakes would soon extinguish it.
Back at the shelter, ready to go to bed, he threw a few more pieces of firewood into the stove.
There is a pot of water in the pot, but I am not afraid that the pot will be boiled dry.
When he lay down to rest, he saw a red shadow shrinking into Wu Hu's sleeping bag.
Lao Zhao smiled and waved at it, "Good night, eighteen!"
In this flurry of snoring, Lao Zhao gradually fell asleep.
When he woke up again, he found everyone still sitting in the shelter, and the big shark was talking about some of his basketball gossip, which made several people laugh. The fire in the stove was still burning, and there was a crackling sound.
Lao Zhao was in a trance, rubbed his eyes, and asked, "What time is it?" "Awake? It should be almost noon!" Qin Xiaohai laughed, and everyone also looked at him, "If you don't want to get up, you can continue to sleep, it's snowing outside."
Snow? Oh! Snow!
Lao Zhao was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses, and didn't pay much attention to it, but soon, he sat up, "The snow is still falling? The snow season is coming early?"
Ai Weier nodded and said, "I can't say it's in advance! In general, there is more snow from November to March and April. It's already close to November, and it's not surprising a few days earlier. Sometimes, it starts to snow in September!"
The big shark stretched and said, "It's just right, everyone hasn't had a good rest since they came here, so it's not bad for us to rest a little more while it's still snowing outside!"
Lao Zhao asked Ai Wei'er, "How long will it take to fall this snow?"
Ai Weier shook her head, "I don't know, but it may not stop for a while, at least looking at the sky today, it should continue." "Where's Brother Tiger?" Lao Zhao turned around, didn't see Wu Hu, and asked. "The fat tiger went to the edge of the river and said that he wanted to put away the gillnets, so that the snow would not be all the time
When the river freezes, the gillnets are frozen."
At this time, the other teams were no different from their 18 groups, all of them were in a daze in the shelter, and some of them had sad faces on their faces. Although everyone has been doing their best to collect food and stock up on supplies these days, not all teams are as lucky as Group 18.
Therefore, although they have some food reserves, the food reserves of many teams are actually not very much, most of them are hundreds of catties, and as few as forty or fifty catties.
Forty or fifty pounds seems to be a lot, but it can only last for three or four days, which has to be extremely economical. If they don't save money like Wu Hu, it is estimated that it will only take two and a half days.
Except for Wu Hu and the 17 groups, not many teams have encountered such a thing as moose.
It can't be said that the team of forty or fifty catties of food reserves is just la, because hunting this thing actually depends on fate. Most of the teams had bows and arrows, and the captains also had a hunting skill, so they couldn't hunt more prey, so they were unlucky.
As for Wu Hu and them, they don't know whether to say good or bad luck, the prey is indeed a lot of encounters, but there are really many dangers. If it weren't for the bug of Wu Hu in the team, it is estimated that their competition area would become a real hell area.
The odds of running into bears and wolves when you go out are too great.
Some teams are praying at this time, praying that this snow can end sooner.
Although the snow has begun to accumulate on the ground, it will be inconvenient to go out hunting, but only when the real snow has stopped, they dare to go out to hunt, so as not to lose their way and lose their temperature.
If you get lost, you can only spend the night outside, and once you spend the night outside, the chance of hypothermia is greater, and you can only be eliminated in the end.
However, at this time, there are still a few players who are out and about, and their ideas are not much different from Wu Hu's, and they all need to take back the trap so as not to be buried by the snow.
Because there was already a layer of snow on the stones of the stream, in order to avoid falling, Wu Hu did not walk on the boulder in the stream, but marched along the woods next to the stream.
When he came to the place where the trap was set up and the squirrel was captured, Wu Hu couldn't help but feel a little regretful, because the trap to catch the squirrel was triggered, but the trap next to him was still fine.
In this regard, Wu Hu was a little helpless, feeling that the wild cat was a little smart, and he might not be able to catch it for a while. This somewhat made Wu Hu feel a little headache, if this thing could not be solved, he would arrange traps to catch squirrels in the future, and it was estimated that he would have to make a wedding dress for the other party.
Thinking about it, Wu Hu put the lasso away.
Now that it's snowing, let's take it back first, and come back when the snow stops!
When he stepped on the snow, one foot deep, one foot shallow, came to the river, and watched the snowflakes fall on the river, and the clouds and mist in the distance, he almost had the urge to recite a poem.
Fortunately, the cold wind with snowflakes blew him up, and he stopped this impulse, lest it be said that he was slashing the threshold of poetry again.
The banks of the great river have been covered with a layer of silver, but the stream in the stream is still murmuring. However, if it rains for a few more days, it is estimated that the stream will be frozen.
The horizontal log placed on the river beach by the stream was also covered with snow, but the snow was not very thick, only about ten centimeters.
When he moved away from the boulder and reached out to pick up the crosswood, Wu Hu frowned.
Sure enough, when he lifted the beam, there were only two poor little fish hanging from the gillnet, which were only twenty or thirty centimeters long, which was not enough for him to make in one meal. However, he also knows that gillnet fishing depends too much on fate.
So after sighing, I had no choice but to put away the gillnet, and lean the beam against the edge of the stream, ready to wait for the snow to stop before laying the net here.
Although the harvest is a little pitiful, it is good to have a little gain. Such a large gillnet is thrown into the river, and fishing depends on fate, so it is really impossible to force it.
He didn't throw the gillnet here, but took it back, so that it wouldn't freeze into a popsicle and freeze it to death, so that he could not continue fishing. When he returned to the shelter with two small fish, Lao Zhao was already cooking lunch for everyone. And the two small fish he brought back also froze into fish sticks along the way.
Wu Hu didn't unfreeze and clean it up, and hung it up directly in the storage room.
The bacon hanging in the storage room has also been frozen into pieces of meat at this time, which are used to smash people, and the lethality is ironclad. Wu Hu handed the gillnet in his hand to Qin Xiaohai, and then he sighed, sat down in front of the stove and started the fire, the cold and piercing feeling in his hand made him want to put his hand into the fire.
At this time, Da Meili filled a bottle of hot water in a glass bottle and handed it over. This is the hot water that Lao Zhao boiled before lunch, but at this time it can only be regarded as lukewarm.
"Warm your hands first, and put your gloves on."
The program team gave each of them a pair of leather gloves, but they didn't usually wear Wu Hu, after all, they needed to work, and it was very inconvenient to wear them.
But now, it's really not good to do without gloves, it's too torturous.
Wu Hu estimated that the current temperature must be below zero, although it is daytime.
"Thank you!" Wu Hu took the glass bottle and took a sip by the way.
Da Meili slapped the snowflakes off Wu Hu's hair and shoulders with his hands, and the gentle movements made people look a little too intimate. The husky girl looked at them with a somewhat suspicious look.
Just as Da Meili is suspicious of the husky girl, the husky girl is also suspicious of Wu Hu's relationship with this woman. But thinking that this woman is in her thirties, the confidence of the husky girl is gradually returning, and I have a great advantage in my pride.
Wu Hu didn't think of this at all, he just said 'thank you' to Da Meili, and then said, "For the past two days, let's stay in the shelter!" Get used to the cold, and then find a way to go out hunting."
Although there is a lot of food in reserve, it is definitely not enough to survive until the final championship. In addition to finding food, you also have to try to get a good enough place in every weekend event, preferably the event champion.
When the advantages accumulate little by little, in the end, it is difficult not to win the championship.
At this time, the big shark said, "Tiger, you hunted that beast yesterday, and the program team gave us a chance to draw a lottery, and we were notified before, so use it as soon as possible." Are we going to extract tools or materials this time?"
Wu Hu was a little surprised, "We hunted that cougar, do we have a chance to give a lottery?"
Originally, Wu Hu thought that there would be no chance of a lottery! After all, the weight of this cougar may not be much different from that of the argali, and far worse than that of the moose.
However, the beast is a beast after all, and the program team still gave it the ranking it deserved. After all, there are twenty-five teams, how many dare to hunt cougars?
Seeing everyone nodding, Wu Hu asked, "What do you think is better?"
The Mediterranean hunk said, "Of course it's a tool, we don't lack food now!"
When everyone heard this, they also nodded, and then looked at Wu Hu.
The big shark said, "It's our turn to draw the lottery this time, Tiger, your luck was so bad before, your lucky stone is useless, please trust Uncle Shaq's luck."
Wu Hu said disdainfully: "Even if it is on a first-come, first-served basis, it should be Brother Hai or Lao Zhao who will draw this time, not you Shak, you are still drawn by me!"
」
Seeing the big shark's black puzzled face, everyone couldn't help laughing, startling the red squirrel eighteen who was quietly gnawing nuts, holding the nuts, and looking at everyone stupidly.
Wu Hu called at the little squirrel, 'Eighteen,' and when he saw it, he beckoned to it.
The little guy was quite clever, biting the nut, running towards him with a puff of smoke, and then squatting in his palm and continuing to hold the nut and nibble.
Although the body that was strangled yesterday has not completely disappeared today, the situation has improved a lot, and it has little impact on its movements.
As for why the little squirrel didn't flee here, everyone was not too surprised, after all, they were fed and sheltered here, there was no need to endure cold and starvation, and there would be no danger, where to find such good conditions. Although this little squirrel is a bit silly, it should also know how to choose the best. The first step in domesticating it is basically completed.
In fact, it has not been domesticated at all, just cast on it
Eat only.
Lao Zhao glanced at the big shark, coughed lightly, and said, "Let me smoke first!" But I believe in Brother Tiger's luck, Brother Tiger, you can smoke it for me!"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at Lao Zhao, and the big shark shouted, "Lao Zhao, you slapped Tiger's sycophant, and it was too obvious!"
Lao Zhao shook his head with a smile, "How can this be called a sycophant? This is called a specialization in the art industry! When Brother Tiger was looking for the treasure chest, he found a total of seven, and the four of us added up to find four, if Brother Tiger is not lucky like this, then what is luck?"
When everyone heard this, they thought about it, and it seemed that this was really the case.
Even if Wu Hu's luck is no longer good, those seven treasure chests are not fake. So, in Wu Hu's laughter, he picked up the communicator again to draw a lottery.
However, when it was time to draw, Wu Hu said, "What do you want to draw? Bows and arrows are the preferred targets, but I think the tin bucket is also good! It can be used for bathing."
Hearing about the bath, everyone couldn't help but show yearning, but thinking about it, it seemed that bows and arrows were safer, after all, food reserves were the most important thing for them at the moment.
Da Meili couldn't help but laugh and said, "Whatever! It's as if you can smoke whatever you want, and the more hopeful you get, the greater the disappointment!"
