Ou Xiang went to pick a bunch and came back. Looking at the gray mushrooms, I felt happy. Because we have this kind of mushroom in our hometown, it is definitely edible.
Perhaps seeing us busy, Lan Fang on the tree couldn't help himself and insisted on coming down to help us. I had no choice but to untie the bamboo and rattan rope, put her still on the tree stand, and slowly lower her down. Of course, I saw Huang Jianfen at the same time, she was really awake!
However, with depression, shame and anger, he did not dare to look at me directly. I checked her pulse and body temperature, and gave her medicine again.
Because Lan Fang's hand could still move, I checked the wound and sure enough, scabs had begun to form. So I directed Ou Xiang to do some details. At the same time, let Lan Fang help her and do what she can.
And I didn’t waste time, taking advantage of the fact that the sky wasn’t completely dark yet, I cut down a lot of branches that were two fingers thick, because I knew that we might not be able to leave this place for the time being. Not only because of Lan Fang, but also because of Huang Jianfen now, but I still want to live.
I still don’t know who the person from last night was. But I know that the current peace may have even crazier dangers. Whether it is Brother Wen, Peng Qian, or even other forces, they will definitely appear at some point.
There is no shortage of thin vines in this rainforest, so I was quickly around and moving quickly. Of course, I warned Ou Xiang and started asking her to stop moving around. Except for what we can see now, which is a short ten-meter road to the river, the rest is prohibited.
I know my abilities are limited, but in my hometown, I have followed many hunters into the mountains and learned some simple trapping mechanisms. They all use some moso bamboo and branch spikes to set contact points on the ground. Although it is not necessarily accurate, it can sometimes injure some slightly larger beasts.
I didn’t have any good tools at hand at this time, but I still whittled off a lot of branch spikes. A series of spikes are placed in potentially dangerous places in the rainforest. This is not the first time I have done this, so it is relatively quick to do. By the time it gets dark, I've basically called it a day.
Seeing that the stone pot has been burning for so long, and the temperature is really rising under the burning of firewood, I felt relieved. Especially when I saw that for my hard work, the surroundings were indeed temporarily surrounded by agencies, so I felt a little satisfied.
Ou Xiang didn't ask me anything, and Lan Fang seemed very quiet and kept helping Ou Xiang. Ou Xiang was still very clever. He stuck some leaves of giant calla lilies in some tree branches and used them directly as tools to hold water. This way we don’t have to risk going to the river to get water at night.
"Ah, Ah Jing, what is this?" After basically setting up a circle, Lan Fang saw me and carefully placed the tree roots section by section under the flame next to the stone nest and burned them. All these behaviors seemed a bit boring and unexpected, so naturally she couldn't help being surprised!
"If I'm not mistaken, this thing is called summer palm, and these are its roots. Please help look at it. If it becomes a little dry later and some black crystals appear on it, just tell me! "Although I know she is also curious, I am not impatient. At least I can't complete these things alone.
If God bless me, I will try my best to maintain the status quo and use all my previous survival skills here. I hope I can tide over the difficulties for the time being. Lan Fang naturally did not refuse, and even started to play with the roots, getting closer to the stone pot.
At this time, the water in the stone pot had begun to react. Seeing the bear's paw that I had stuffed in the fire, the hair was almost burned off and the smell of meat was coming out. Ou Xiang couldn't help but feel excited. Because some wild mushrooms have been put in a long time ago. Although they are not edible yet, they are enough to make people salivate.
Although I was very hungry, I was still not in a hurry.
I had already broken open the heart of that bear, tied it with vines and washed it in the river. Because the black bear was stung to death by a wild bee, it seems to me that there must be poison in its blood. So even though I wanted to drink bear blood to replenish salt, I didn't dare to take the risk.
So when I brought Xiong Xin back, I only cut two pieces and put them down. I kept cooking them in the stone pot, hoping that they would be really non-toxic. While the food was cooking, the dead branches that were not burned were poured with water from time to time to make some charcoal for later use.
After all, fuel can't always be found in this rainforest. Because of last night's incident and the life and death I experienced today, I know that I need to be able to think of and do every detail. Although there is no need to explain it to Ou Xiang, it is still necessary to let them grasp it.
We haven't slept well in the past two days. Even if the fire raised at this time may let others know our existence, the injuries of Huang Jianfen and Lan Fang forced me to take this risk. After all, whenever a creature like a python appears, we have no possibility of escaping.
Looking at the bird eggs poured out of the bamboo tube with water, Lan Fang's hands trembled slightly. She didn't know if she was aware of her injuries, and because she had a strong desire to survive, she seemed to be very adaptable to her changes. Not to mention elegance and beauty at this time, it feels very happy for her to be able to have food.
Of course, Lan Fang finally waited until the tree roots crystallized. She told me excitedly, and then watched me cautiously catch the crystal-like charcoal-like things with alocasia leaves. She was obviously a little dazed. .
I didn't explain it to them, but looking at these crystals, I couldn't help but smear some with my fingers, and then carefully tried it with the tip of my tongue. Then a familiar taste spread to my taste buds instantly, and my whole body was... Unable to help it, he trembled slightly.
Seeing both of them looking at me in confusion, I suddenly extended my licked finger to the mouth of Lan Fang who was nearest. Her face instantly turned red under the firelight, and she obviously didn't know what I wanted to do.
I nodded to her encouragingly, and after she glanced at Ou Xiang, she finally approached with apprehension. He was even a little embarrassed, but in the end he stuck out his tongue slightly and quickly touched it.
"Yeah! Salt,,,,,," Lan Fang's awkward look suddenly turned into one of surprise. First he looked at Ou Xiang, then at me. Although she had a questioning look, it was obvious that she had already confirmed it.
At this moment, I was suddenly moved and felt a little sour in my heart. As expected, I was right. The plant I discovered was indeed the xiaxia cypress palm I had heard about before. When people here go into the mountains and there is no salt, they will grill the roots of this tree to get the salt to replenish their physical strength.
