Chapter 38: The Blade
First Ming drew the knife, and a piercing pain came at him, causing his entire face to wrinkle together, and blood gushed from his thighs.
He suddenly regretted his recklessness, if he had pierced the major artery, he would have bled to death on the island without treatment! Fortunately, after he drew the knife, he quickly took off his clothes to stop the bleeding without hurting the artery.
Although he felt that he was reckless, the suffering was not in vain, and as he expected, he relieved himself for a while after the injury, and his stomach became hungry as expected. Seeing this, Yi Ming hurriedly picked up the Xiao meat he had just cut and bit it.
After a while, he ate a pound of Xiao meat in his stomach. However, his stomach was like opening a valve, and he didn't feel a pound of Xiao meat, and he was still hungry. This made the first Ming painful and happy, and he hurriedly jumped to cut a few more catties of meat.
After a few catties of meat in his stomach, he no longer had an appetite, and seeing that the wound was still faintly bleeding, he secretly said in his heart that his body probably needed time to transform. looked at the other thigh, but he didn't dare to go under the knife again, so he simply dispelled the idea of self-harm and eating meat.
He sat down and began to wait for the sharp pain to come.
For a long time, his body did not react, which forced him to start looking at another urgent problem to be solved, that is, what to do with the corpse.
Assuming that the corpse died that night, it had been exposed to the air for two full days and two nights. Although I don't know much about the decay rate of this Xiao meat, if it is on Earth, most of the corpses have begun to decompose in two days, and although this Xiao corpse has not yet deteriorated, it already has that tendency, so if Yi Ming still wants to continue to eat this corpse, his time is running out!
Smoked, fire-roasted, or refrigerated? He came up with the three easiest ways to do it.
It's unrealistic, he doesn't have a fire source at all, and there is basically nothing around the river that can continue to burn, and the conditions don't allow it.
Refrigeration was also unrealistic for him, as there were simply no conditions on the river beach for him to refrigerate meat.
Is it possible to let the flesh rot? Thinking about it, he is extremely unwilling. When he was thinking about it, he accidentally skimmed his arm, two days of exposure made his arm turn brown and black, he couldn't help laughing at himself when he saw it, and secretly said that he was afraid that he was thinking of an African now, but soon he thought of one more thing, why didn't it hurt?
Generally, the skin after being exposed to the sun will inevitably be sunburned, and the next day the epidermis will be painful, and then the skin will peel, so why is it not painful? Is it because of the snake gall bladder? He thought, suddenly a little glad that he had eaten the snake gall bladder, which not only gave him great help, but also saved him a lot of pain.
Thinking of snake gall reminds him of the days when he survived in the jungle with Heiwa.
At that time, they lived on prey and wild fruits every day, although there were times when they were hungry, but the days were very simple, they only needed to find food, and they could bask in the sun leisurely by the sea. He couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Heiwa's ugly face and the antics he danced with.
Suddenly, the first Ming smiled, slapped his thigh, and shouted, "Yes! How did I forget!
After shouting, he bounced up excitedly, and didn't care that there was still a wound on his thigh, so he took the dagger and walked towards the corpse.
He was going to break down the corpse and make it into strips of dried meat that would be dried in the sun to make it that would last longer.
Not only can the jerky meat be preserved for a longer time, but after a lot of water in the meat is evaporated, the meat left behind can allow him to eat more of the essence with less food!
First Ming took the dagger and began to cut the flesh from the limbs of the corpse, and the sharpness of the dagger came in handy at this time, he drew a straight line between his thighs, and only began to cut the flesh after cutting off the skin and fat.
In order to make the meat dry faster, he cut the meat into one-centimeter-thick slices, one by one, and then placed them on top of the stones in direct sunlight. As soon as the preheated stone came into contact with the meat, one side of the meat was roasted a lot, which made Yi Ming very satisfied, and he stepped up his work.
Time flashed by, and after the two suns met in the sky, they said hello and began to fall in the direction they came from.
Feeling that the heat of the sun is not as good as before, this makes the first Ming a little impatient, although he has good tools, but he is not skilled, only a hundred or ten catties of meat slices in a few hours, which makes him a little discouraged, such a speed, it is difficult to solve this corpse in two more days!
He felt that this would not be the way to go on, so he thought about how to streamline what he was doing while doing it, assuming that the meat would be completely spoiled one day, and if he could not get the most in that day, he would have to think about how to get the best meat!
As long as you make all the most essential meat on the corpse first, the meat in the back can be relaxed, make a little money, and then there will be no sesame seeds picked up and sesame seeds dropped.
The first thing that comes to mind is the heart, because the heart can be regarded as the center of the whole body, and the flesh of the heart must be the most developed part of an animal.
After deciding on it, he stopped what he was doing and walked around to the front of the corpse.
The beasts on the other side of the river had long since finished their food, and one of the horses was gnawed to the bloody bones, which they threw behind them and lay down in the sun.
Seeing that the other side was so peaceful, First Naru pressed the urge to throw a stone at him and provoke the fire, and went straight to the wound of the beast.
Unlike the first day he ate, two days attracted a large number of flies, which were densely attached to the entrails of the beast, which made him frown, but thinking that there was not much time left for him, he endured nausea and cleared all the mosquitoes from the wound, and then completely pulled out the internal organs of the beast and threw them into the water.
After finishing everything and washing away the fishy smell from his body, he burrowed into the belly of the beast.
The beast's belly was large enough to accommodate the first Ming's body, and after he entered, he cut the gap a little wider along the wound until it was cut to the hard bone part of the beast's chest, and then the wound was separated, and he searched it with the light source.
With the first sound of blood, a heart the size of a volleyball, although he had expected the size of this heart, but when it was really placed in front of him, this size still surprised him, mixed with purple blood, the crimson heart was very bloody, making it difficult for him to swallow.
So he washed his heart again, and then sat down with his heart in his arms.
It was already afternoon, and he felt that his stomach was a lot empty after some labor, and this was a good time to eat this heart, and before he could eat it, he noticed the bone blade that was more than a meter long.
The sharp bone blade was as soft as jade, which reminded him of the weapon held by the golden armorer, as if it was this kind of bone blade, and he didn't care about eating meat for a moment, so he wanted to take the bone blade off the beast's body.
As soon as he said that, he used the same method to remove the skin from the beast's left arm and slash it down the bone blade.
He hadn't looked carefully before, but when he looked at it again, he found that the bone blade was only sharp in front, and when he got closer, he found that the root of the bone blade had become columnar, and after going a few centimeters deep into the skin, the column had expanded a lot, and it was perfectly combined with the hand bone.
Seeing this, the first Ming felt that this bone blade was simply a perfect weapon, and it was born with its own handle, but the part that was combined with the arm was too tight, and if there was no suitable tool to take it off, the lower part of the bone blade would inevitably be cut off.
But it didn't bother him, because he also had a dagger in his hand that was harder than the orc bone blade.
He picked up the stone from the ground, placed the blade of the dagger on the base of the bone blade, and struck the dagger on the back with the stone, trying to smash the dagger into the bone blade like a machete to create a gap.
Qiang Qiang Qiang three times, the first sound full of confidence was dumbfounded, only to see that the stone in his hand was knocked out of a few traces, but the dagger did not mean to cut in!
Treasure!" he cried out, and then picked up a harder stone.
More than a dozen catties of stones were like a sponge in his hand, and he slammed them down, forming a black shadow in the air, and with another bang, the dagger and the bone blade actually shot out sparks that can only be produced between metals!
When he first looked at it, he saw that the stone had been smashed again, and he was a little lost, but when he saw the bone blade, he was happy again, because he found that the dagger had been stuck between the bone blade and the bone of his hand. It's just that this hand bone is not the same as the hollow bone of humans, and you can see that there are marks between the bone blade and the dagger, but there is a lot of powder there, like stone.
Of course, this is not difficult for him, if one stone does not work, there will be two, and if two does not work, there will be three!
In this way, the first Ming piled up stones at his hand and smashed them for a long time, until the dagger was a third of the way into the bone blade, and it was already very hot, he hurriedly cooled the dagger, and then continued to smash it.
Focusing on one thing, he seemed to have forgotten about cutting meat, and he didn't even care about putting a heart next to him, sparks erupted all the way, and finally unloaded the bone blade.
The bone blade is shining with golden light under the illumination of the setting sun, which makes people can't help but recall the blade used by the golden armor, the total length of the blade is about one meter three, and the cylindrical handle part is about twenty centimeters long.
However, the first Ming only found out that the sun was above the horizon again, and when he was shocked, he was in the dark and forgot about business. He hurriedly put the bone blade aside to cut the meat, but before he had taken two steps, he saw that the meat on the ground had dried up, so he simply did not cut the meat, but collected all the pieces of meat first.
After finishing everything, the first Ming was very happy to look at more than 20 catties of Xiao jerky, but after a while, he was distressed that there was no place to store it, and after a little thought, he went to wash the fur of Xiao's thighs, spread it on the ground to dry, and used it as a package for storage.
After doing everything, the sun was already setting in the west, and the first Ming dragged his tired body and sat down.
