Chapter 174: Picnic in the Mountains

Gao Mingcheng had been tracking the tiger all day, and he felt that this kind of voyeuristic behavior had a kind of secret excitement.

It is said that in 90 years, there was no trace of South China tigers in the wild, and this year it is 87 years!

He had to look and maybe never get a chance to observe the South China tiger in the wild again, so he followed it all the way and then saw the tiger come ashore from the water and into another forest.

There are yellow muntjac living in this forest, and it seems that it is forced to change its taste and plan to attack the yellow muntjac.

Compared to wild boars, yellow muntjac is much weaker, and they have no ability to attack, the only advantage is that they run fast, but they are also stupid and cute, and after running away, they will return to the previous place to stay.

This time, after spending a lot of effort, the tiger finally got his wish to hunt a yellow muntjac!

Hungry, it began to bury its head in eating, but the hidden danger was already quietly approaching.

Gao Mingcheng, who was hiding behind the tree, frowned, and from his side of vision, he could see a group of jackals quietly surrounding him.

Fortunately, there are only six jackals in this pack.

At this time, the tiger that was eating also felt the crisis, it raised its head, and roared at the jackal, but the jackal did not retreat, but did not step forward, and just guarded not far from the tiger.

Seeing this, the tiger continued to eat with its head down, but it did not eat all of it, and there was still a small half left, and then it just left.

As soon as it was gone, the jackals rushed forward and began to feast on the tiger's remaining prey.

This is also a symbiotic relationship, when the tiger faces a jackal, it is easy to hunt, but in the face of a group of jackals, even if it is the king of the forest, it will choose to retreat, because when the jackal besieges, it is possible to bite the tiger to death!

After the tiger left, Gao Mingcheng continued to follow, and then saw that the tiger had found a cave halfway up the mountain, so he went in to sleep.

The tiger is rarely active during the day, but now that it has eaten and drunk enough, it naturally sleeps and wants to sleep.

Gao Mingcheng found that it didn't intend to chase the people who had been trapped by it before, so he stopped staring at the tiger anymore.

Since he followed the tiger all the way, he couldn't tell where he was at once.

This mountain forest was very unfamiliar to him, and it was the first time he had entered such a deep mountain.

I raised my wrist and looked at my watch, and found that it was already noon.

He had only eaten a few cakes and a little water in the morning, and now he naturally felt hungry.

But in the unfamiliar mountains and forests, he was also able to find food, and in the mountains in May, there were already some wild fruits to eat, among which the better tasting ones were mulberries, wild cherries, and wild loquats.

Gao Mingcheng had just walked a short distance when he saw that the hillside in front of him was overgrown with loquat trees.

Loquat seeds have a high germination rate, and once the fruit is ripe and landed, small loquat trees will grow the next year, and over time, loquat trees can grow into a large area.

Now these loquat trees are full of yellow loquats, but compared to the loquat sold in the market in the previous life, the wild loquat is much smaller, and the seeds are relatively large, and the taste is slightly sour.

But there is also an advantage, that is, it is fruity.

Gao Mingcheng had eaten some loquat in his previous life, they were very big and beautiful, and they had a lot of water, but they just didn't have any taste and water.

He picked some ripe loquats, peeled them and threw them into his mouth, just after eating the first bite, his sour facial features were deformed, and after the sour taste, it was a little sweet, but it was not too unpalatable.

But Gao Mingcheng ate a few and didn't eat it, the main thing is that the more he eats, the hungrier he gets!

Gao Mingcheng decided to get a small prey such as pheasants and hares to eat, the big prey was unthinkable, the wild animals in the mountains and forests here were very fierce.

With his experience and skill, he was able to catch a rabbit and find a few wild eggs under a bush.

He carried the rabbit and followed the sound of the water to the edge of a ditch.

He squatted at the water's edge, skinned the rabbit, gutted it, cleaned it, and then inserted a sharpened wooden stick into the rabbit's body, and then used a tenacious twig to prop the rabbit's ribcage open.

Once it is processed, it is necessary to cut a flower knife on the rabbit with a dagger and then smear it with salt.

He stuck the twig with the rabbit meat upside down in the soil, and then went to the neighborhood to collect some dry firewood and came back.

He moved three stones by the stream, built a simple stove, put firewood into the improvised stove, took out a lighter and lit it.

The reason why he wanted to build a stove was because in addition to roasting rabbit meat, he also planned to cook a pot of soup to eat.

When it comes to boiling soup, many people subconsciously think that it is necessary to cook it in a pot, but in the wild, there is also an alternative, and that is bamboo.

The fist-thick Nanzhu has a lot of space in each section, and as long as it is filled with water, then even if the bamboo is burned on the fire, it will not burn.

Not to mention bamboo, even paper pots can be used to cook soup.

When the stove was burning, he put the rabbit meat upside down on the side of the stove, not far away, not so close that it could be grilled without scorching.

Then he went to cut down the bamboo, which is a plant that is very common in their mountains, and he chose the largest bamboo, and then cut it down, and finally cut a bamboo tube, poured it with clean stream water, and then chopped up the rabbit's internal organs that had been cleaned before and threw them in, and then put them on the stove to cook.

At this time, the rabbit meat near the fire was already bubbling with oil, and Gao Mingcheng immediately moved it and continued to roast it on another side.

The bamboo tube will cook the soup slowly, and when it is almost cooked, Gao Mingcheng will break the few wild eggs he picked up and pour the egg liquid into the bamboo tube.

It may taste a little weird, but it's all about nutrition!

After the offal egg soup was cooked, Gao Mingcheng took the bamboo tube aside to cool, and began to concentrate on roasting the rabbit meat, which was already half-cooked and needed to be roasted.

After another ten minutes, Gao Mingcheng began to eat roast rabbit and drink soup at the same time, to be honest, it tasted good!

Gao Mingcheng looked around and thought to himself, he lacked a live broadcast device, otherwise he would definitely be able to start the live broadcast of wilderness survival content!

After eating and drinking, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Gao Mingcheng didn't plan to stay in the mountains any longer, he had to go down the mountain before it got dark and return home.

Yesterday, he promised a lot of beauty, saying that he would go to the cooperative to buy fertilizer today, and the result was ...... He had to break his promise.

He climbed to a cedar tree, which grew extremely tall, with a slender trunk and few branches, which made it easy to climb, but when he climbed to a high place, there was no suitable place to stay, but it made people feel intimidated.

Gao Mingcheng quickly climbed to a high place, and then looked at the surrounding environment, looking for the direction to return to Gaojia Village.

"Found it, over there!" Gao Mingcheng looked at a familiar mountain peak and was secretly happy in his heart.

He got out of the tree and began to run towards the familiar peak.
