It's still raining outside, but it's getting darker! The sound of the rumbling waterfall and the beeping and beeping firelight seemed to bring a sense of comfort.
Although we all know that there are dangers around us at any time, but because of the trap set by Luo Xiaoshan, we instinctively feel much safer!
We didn't speak for a while, as if we had forgotten the danger. Seeing Luo Xiaoshan staring at the fire blankly, without actually mentioning going back to the cave, I immediately went into the water behind the waterfall, went under the bamboo tube in the water, and brought up a few pieces of meat. !
Looking at the meat that had been soaked for three or four days, the surface had already changed color due to soaking. I smelled it and there was no peculiar smell. Maybe the temperature of the pond water has never been high, and the meat pieces are cut into quite large pieces, so it still looks intact.
Even though it has a strong smell of game, based on my past experience in wild survival, it should not affect its consumption. Compared with bark vegetables, at least these meat foods are more suitable for humans!
However, I still took it under the firelight and carefully looked at it. Then I carefully circled around each piece of meat and cut it off directly with a dagger. But in the end, there were still hand-thick pieces of meat left, which seemed to be enough for the two of us.
The reason why I cut off all the outer edges of the meat was because I thought of those bats. I almost broke here at that time. Although I was lucky enough to drive them away in the end, I killed them with my spear and many of them fell into the pool.
Because it was also raining, the waterfall was very powerful. Although most of them were washed down into the river, there would still be some. If there was really bat saliva in the pool, there must be toxins. So the water quality is soaking these meats, I don’t know if it will be affected!
Although the possibility is extremely small, in order to survive, I have to be cautious. Immediately, he prepared the utensils that had not been taken away at that time, and found a broken pot that could still boil water, so he immediately fetched water and boiled it.
So I blanched the meat with water first, and then decided to grill it a little first, and then share some between the two of us. If there is really no problem, it is not too late to enjoy it together slowly.
Seeing me taking out a sealed bamboo tube behind some rocks, Luo Xiaoshan looked at me in surprise, took out some black salt, and marinated the meat separately! Although she didn't know what it was, she had seen Ou Xiang use it in the cave.
I didn't hide it from her and told her that in order to survive, I made some homemade black salt in this rainforest. The reason why I put it here is that if it is no longer available somewhere, you can always come here and get it!
Luo Xiaoshan was surprised in her exclamation, because I saw that she and Yuan Jianning were obviously lacking in salt, so I showed off directly. After all, having salt here is undoubtedly the basis for long-term survival.
Otherwise, with the abilities of Yuan Jianning and Luo Xiaoshan, even people like Aneng, if they cannot take in salt for a long time, their limbs will be weak, and they will eventually suffer from various diseases and die. So Luo Xiaoshan was naturally a little excited when she saw the real thing marinated in black salt!
Then it is skewered with a piece of dry firewood, and the meat is grilled on the firewood that turns into charcoal. After a while, the meat slices became sizzling and oily, and even the meaty aroma emerged instantly!
"Huang Jing..." Luo Xiaoshan, who had been watching me setting up a wooden grill to barbecue, suddenly called me because she was not helping, which really surprised me.
Because she never mentioned anything else, I looked at her with a bit of surprise when I heard her voice!
Seeing a bit of surprise on Luo Xiaoshan's face, I vaguely understood, but I was still relatively calm. After adjusting her mood a little, she looked a little nervous, so she said lightly: "What's wrong, Xiaoshan?"
"Let's not go back, are we over there? ,,,,,," Although she also knew that it was already dark outside, looking at me sitting there upright, my figure actually looked a bit tall behind the waterfall, Luo Xiaoshan still Some surprises, with inexplicable nervousness!
"The rain has not stopped, and the sky has turned dark again. You have been here for so long, you should know! If we risk going back during this journey, it is no different from seeking death! Of course, if we want to go back, let's eat something and pack up immediately. Come back!"
I thought clearly and looked at her speaking seriously. After all, this is the truth! But I reacted very quickly because I didn't want her to misunderstand her. After all, this kind of thing is easy to mess up. So I didn't even question it at all, just said it like it was nothing.
"Yes, I'm sorry," Luo Xiaoshan naturally knew this fact, but she was inexplicably nervous at that moment, so she didn't know what to say.
When I said this, I felt a little embarrassed and even looked at me uneasily! Seeing my calm expression, she seemed to blame herself even more, feeling that she was overthinking. I couldn't help but bury my head deeply in my knees with some uneasiness!
"It's okay, don't think too much..." Because she was sitting next to me on the low stone, so she looked like an aggrieved child at this time.
She looked very cute, and seeing her uneasiness made me feel a little embarrassed. So with helplessness and a little unintentional, he gently patted her hand to comfort her.
She didn't expect this action, but it made her tremble all over, and she even looked at me nervously. I knew that she was not really rejecting me, but suddenly realized the embarrassment, so I tried to lower my voice as low as possible and said, "Don't worry, there are many of us over there!"
"Well,,,,,," he saw that I had no intention of taking back my hand, and the clothes on my body were wet and stuck to my body. My hand felt strangely warm, and she felt a little stiff all over. She didn't even dare to look at me, and stared directly at the flame: "I,,,,,,"
This is a woman who is not very good at rejecting people. Although I don’t know what her character is, I am not willing to use any tricks on such a woman. So when I look at her, there is nothing dark in my heart!
Indeed, the crisis in this rainforest really makes me feel more and more dangerous!
"I'm worried that Zhou Jianguo will appear at any time, and his physical mutation will cause huge damage to his heart!" Looking at Luo Xiaoshan, who was a little uneasy, I had to change some topics!
"Yeah, um, I understand, Huang Jing, I'm sorry,,,,,," Seeing my explanation, she seemed even more uneasy: "I, listen to you,,,,,,,"
"It's good to be alive here, isn't it?" I looked at her shy and cautious look, but of course she didn't mean to bewitch her.
The more nervous she became, the more I felt guilty, but I felt very transparent. So he sat up straighter: "I just don't know when something will happen here, so we don't have to think too much about other things! Also, there is no one else here, so you have to relax!"
"Got it!" She mustered up the courage to look at me without taking her hand away.
But her body was still trembling slightly. After all, the ambiguity that happened on the road when she first came here has been lingering in her mind since she saw me!
