Maybe it was the tiredness of the way, and the two of them fell asleep after chattering.

The night was long, and the night wind was cold.

Despite the single coat cover, the dry grass covered, and the cold wind blowing in through the cracks in the stones, the two people still woke up from freezing. Especially in the second half of the night, maybe it's because I've slept for a long time, and it's hard to sleep anymore.

Alayanzong took out the wine bag, and the two drank some to warm up, and then finally fell asleep again.

After all, he couldn't sleep well, and the early Alayanzong woke up. Seeing that Ulla's peach was still asleep, he covered her with all the clothes on her body and piled up the hay.

There was already light outside the stone house, and Alayanzong drilled out and blocked the hole again.

After observing the terrain, he saw a forest not far to the west, so he followed the mountain path below him in search of food.

To the surprise of Alayanzong, he actually found a few fruit trees. Picked up some sour dates, hawthorns, and even some walnuts under the tree.

Perhaps it was his search for grass that disturbed the birds perched in the trees, and they all chirped and flapped their wings.

These birds are relatively small, and even if they are caught, they don't have much meat to eat.

Alayanzong felt that those dried fruits could only be eaten for a day, and if he wanted to accumulate food, it was better to hunt some prey.

Further west, the woods here are much higher, but it is difficult to find any more fruit trees.

Just as Alayanzong was hesitating whether to continue walking deeper into the forest, he heard a few bleating calls.

In search of prestige, there are more than a dozen small white dots moving halfway up the mountain on the north side. Alayanzong knew that it was a goat grazing on the mountainside.

Although it is a hillside, it is also very steep, and it is difficult for even wolves to climb such a hillside. When they try to catch the goats, nine times out of ten they will roll down the hill.

The goats can continue to hop around the mountainside in search of food. Those hungry wolves can only look at the sheep and sigh.

Perhaps the goats are located in a special terrain that allows them to continue to reproduce because of this natural protection.

The steep slopes and the clumps of thorns can't stop the Alayan sect.

A few vertical leaps, over the rocks, over the ravine, to the bottom of the hillside. Hold the small tree in your hand, kick the rock wall, and bow down. As dexterous as an ape, sometimes jumping, sometimes climbing, and winding up.

It's getting closer.

When a dozen goats saw someone coming, they kept bleating and moved quickly up the mountain. Occasionally, small pieces of stone roll down the slope.

Alayanzong reached out and grabbed a stone the size of a steamed bun, and raised his hand to throw it at a nearby goat. The stone was right on the goat's head, and the goat bleated and died instantly, and then rolled down the slope.

As soon as Alayanzong grabbed the goat's hind legs, untied the rope around his waist, tied the goat behind his back, faced the hillside, jumped upside down, and went down the slope.

The goats on the hillside had stopped climbing upwards and were just bleating, watching the frightened scene. Leaning slightly, they bow their heads and graze again, as if all this that happened has nothing to do with them anymore.

After descending the mountain, the Alayan sect went back. As they went, they saw a stone slab one centimeter thick, thirty centimeters wide, and fifty or sixty centimeters long stuck obliquely in the mud and sand.

So he loosened the sand around the slate with a short sword, washed the slate with the water flowing beside him, and brought it back with him.

Back in the simple stone house, the peach of Ula had already risen, and a new skin of spring water was fetched. By the way, I washed by the spring, and I looked much more energetic, and I looked even more pretty than I was tired yesterday.

Seeing that Alayanzong was returning with a goat on his back, he was very surprised, so he stepped forward to help him untie the goat, and said with a smile:

"It seems that today's harvest is not small, and we can make jerky again!"

Alayanzong put down the goat and said, "Today there is not only meat, but also vegetarian. ”

I untied my waist bag and checked it, and there was a sound of rattling from inside.

Ula Peach took it and opened it, and said happily: "So many, and walnuts!"

So he took out a walnut, smashed it open with a small stone, took the kernel, and put it in the mouth of Alayanzong, and put a piece in his mouth.

"Hmmm! ”

With goats comes food, and although they are still whole sheep and still need to be processed, they already have the confidence to get these things.

The two of them sat down on the stones, took out the dried meat and fruits, and ate while talking and laughing, and had a full meal.

After eating, Ula Peach went to the surrounding area to find dry firewood, where they planned to roast mutton jerky.

In order to facilitate the cleaning, Alayanzong carried the goat directly to the spring.

I found a relatively flat stone, took out a knife and began to dissect.

This is a male goat, not big, only thirty or forty pounds. Consider that if you throw away all the offal, there will be less lamb left.

Then Alayan washed all the internal organs with the spring water.

He skinned the sheepskin, washed the blood, wrapped the mutton and entrails in the sheepskin again, and carried him back to the small stone house.

Find a flat boulder again, cut the lamb into thin slices with a knife and place it on the sheepskin.

Cut the sheep intestine into small pieces, and the heart, liver, spleen and kidney are also cut into thin slices, put them together on the sheepskin, and marinate them with salt first.

In the leeward part of the small stone house, the peach of Ula erected a stone slab with two stones, and the stool was set on fire by lighting the hay with a sickle.

He also took the mutton fat and spread it on the hot slate to prevent the meat from sticking to the slate during the roasting.

Take out the bamboo skewers from the luggage and use them as chopsticks, and spread the lamb intestine slices on the stone slab and grill them slowly.

Soon the aroma of roasted lamb wafted away.

Ula Peach couldn't resist the temptation of the smell of mutton, so he took a piece of meat that was seven or eight ripe and put it in his mouth and chewed it. Although there is still a bit of a fishy smell, the soft and hard are quite delicious, unusually fresh, and the salty and moist are easy to swallow.

The peach of Ula was full of praise, so he took another piece and sent it to the mouth of the Alayan sect, saying:

"It smells so good! ”

Alayanzong chewed it, nodded and said, "It's really good, mutton is much more tender than wolf meat." Oh, by the way, we still have baijiu, and there is no fishy smell with baijiu. ”

After that, he got up and went into the stone house, took the wine bag, and drank white wine while eating roast mutton with Ula Peach, which did taste very different.

Although both of them ate more in the morning, this lunch was more refreshing.

There are more and more cooked jerky, and the sheepskin is still so wet that it is impossible to use it for jerky.

Alayanzong took the bamboo skewer in the hand of Ula Peach, guarded the stone slab and continued to roast the mutton jerky.

Ula Peach took one of the shirts of the previous bandits, took a needle and thread, and remade a cloth bag, using the cloth bag to hold the mutton jerky.

The sun was still high when the jerky was finished, and the amount of jerky was less than half that of the wolf jerky at the beginning.

After a brief discussion between the two of them, Alayanzong decided to hunt another goat, prepare enough food, and set off again.

While the peach of Ullah was roasting sheepskins, Allayanzon returned to the hillside where the goats were there. It was only when it was getting dark that he brought back an old goat.
