For three days in a row, Daolin and Long Xiaonian were completely lost. In the past three days, the two of them were like headless flies scurrying around in the Huahechuan forest. The most embarrassing thing was that they never encountered a caravan in the past three days. , not even a living person was encountered.
"Brother Daolin, I'm hungry." Long Xiaonian said weakly while sitting under a big tree.
Daolin sat down on the ground, and Long Xiaonian reminded him that he was a little hungry now because he had absorbed all the energy from the fruit in his body.
Then Daolin's mind entered the storage ring, but he was stunned. There was no food at all in the storage ring, only the condiments.
Only then did he remember that he had asked Ji Jiu and the others to leave first. He gave Ji Jiu most of the food, and ate the rest on his own before he met Uncle Ouyang's caravan. In addition, he did not replenish food in Rey County. , now there is no food at all.
"What's wrong?" Long Xiaonian asked in confusion when he saw Daolin froze on the spot.
"I forgot to replenish the food in Rey County, and now we have nothing to eat..." Dowling said awkwardly.
"Ah? Is it possible that we two are going to starve to death in this forest?" Long Xiaonian suddenly collapsed.
"That's not the case. Now we can only eat what we catch." Dolin said and looked around.
"What are you looking for?" Long Xiaonian asked curiously.
"Wild vegetables! Or game!" Dorian said with a smile.
"Then how to eat wild vegetables? Wild vegetables are only for animals. How can humans eat wild vegetables?" Long Xiaonian said with great reluctance.
Dolin smiled and said: "You don't understand, right? In fact, there are no wild vegetables. The vegetables you usually eat were just wild vegetables at the earliest time. It was only after people knew that they could be cultivated artificially that they became vegetables." .”
"Actually, there are a lot of wild vegetables that are very delicious. Let's go! Let's keep going forward. I'll point them out to you on the way." After that, Dolin led the horse forward.
Long Xiaonian had no choice but to follow.
"Look! This is a wild vegetable called Hui Hui Cai. This vegetable can be stir-fried." Daolin introduced it to Long Xiaonian, and you pulled up a series of Hui Hui Cai from the ground.
After walking forward for a while, Daolin pulled out some more Malan heads, which can be fried.
"Brother Daolin, what should I do if I want to eat meat?" Long Xiaonian lowered his head and asked behind Daolin.
"If I encounter game in a while, I will catch it and cook it for you." Dowling said with a smile.
"Does your cooking taste good?" Long Xiaonian asked expectantly.
"That's for sure. I'm a professional chef, very powerful." Dorian said proudly.
"You are also a cook. Wow, you are so versatile." Long Xiaonian suddenly smiled when he heard that Daolin was a cook.
"Xiao Nian, go ahead and pick some mushrooms over there. Remember not to use the fancy ones." Dolin pointed to a big tree in the distance and said.
Long Xiaonian walked over obediently. Just as she was bending down to pick mushrooms, a piece of bark above her head suddenly opened her eyes. It turned out to be a venomous snake that was very similar to the bark.
The viper's eyes were fixed on Long Xiaonian beneath her. Just when she was about to get up after picking the mushrooms, the viper moved.
It bit Long Xiaonian's neck at an extremely fast speed, and just when it was about to get his mouth, he grabbed it with one hand.
"I've discovered you a long time ago, little Chongchong, who do you think is the prey?" Long Xiaonian chuckled, grabbed the snake's tail and flicked it, killing the poisonous snake directly.
"Brother Daolin, look what I caught!" Long Xiaonian said, holding a mushroom in one hand and shaking the poisonous snake in the other.
"It's really good. I'll make snake soup for you later!" Dolin took the poisonous snake and after making sure it was dead, he stuffed it into the horse's side bag.
Daolin picked some chrysanthemums on the roadside one after another, and then took Long Xiaonian to find a place with water source to prepare for living and cooking.
"You take a rest first, and I will make you a chrysanthemum and snake soup. Pay attention to your surroundings. There is water here, and there will definitely be animals passing by. If we catch one or two, we will have a feast today." Daolin said While handling the snake meat, he said to Long Xiaonian.
Long Xiaonian nodded obediently, and then started the surrounding investigation like a surveillance camera.
Dolin boiled a pot of water, and while waiting for the water to boil, he peeled the poisonous snake open, removed the venom sac, stuffed the snake gall into his mouth and drank it. Snake gall was a good thing, and Dolin would not waste it, and then pulled off the snake skin. , stuffed the snake meat and bones into a casserole, added seasonings, and some old soup he brought with him, then put it on the fire and started making soup.
The snake soup had already started to be cooked, and he was not idle either. He picked up a small pile of wild vegetables and went to the water to wash them.
Dolin squatted by the water and looked under the water. The water was very clear, and fish as big as a finger could swim at the bottom. There was no need to catch such small fish, so Dolin didn't care and washed them. After Ye Cai was about to leave, the moment he turned around, he felt a fishy wind coming from behind him. When he turned around, he saw a black and yellow tiger approaching, and it had already jumped up and rushed towards him.
Daolin didn't panic at all. He made a mistake with his foot and let the tiger pass. After the tiger landed, it rushed towards Daolin again. Daolin directly burst out with his extraordinary aura. The charging tiger suddenly looked like a frightened kitten. , jumped to the side, and all the hair on his body exploded.
"I'm telling you, get out of here. I'm worried about not having anything to eat. If you take one more step forward, I'll eat you today!" Dolin said fiercely to the tiger.
As if the tiger understood, it tucked its tail and ran away towards the distant woods.
Dowling let the tiger go, but some people didn't want to let it go. They saw a gray figure chasing after him in the blink of an eye, leaving only afterimages in place at such a speed.
"Stop chasing it!" Daolin shouted at Long Xiaonian who was chasing him, but Long Xiaonian had already run away quite far.
"Hey..." Daolin sighed and walked back. He was not worried about Long Xiaonian at all. Instead, he was a little worried about the tiger. If it fell into Long Xiaonian's hands, the tiger might be spoiled.
Sure enough, when Daolin was preparing to cook, Long Xiaonian came back. She held the tiger's tail in her little hand and pulled back the tiger that was several sizes bigger than her.
"I want to eat this." Long Xiaonian threw the tiger under his feet and said.
"After all, this big guy is the king of beasts and the king of the forest. Can you save some face for him? Besides, eating some wild vegetables is good for your health, so let him live." Dolin said helplessly, this is not a blue sky. Xing, it is not illegal to eat a tiger, but he has never killed this thing. Besides, eating the king of the forest in the forest is so ironic. Doesn’t the tiger have no face?
"What should I do if I want to eat meat? I've been in the forest for so long and I haven't seen any living creatures. I finally caught this guy. Is it possible to let it go?" Long Xiaonian pouted.
"Hey, Tiger, if you know something, you can catch us some food in exchange for your life, do you understand?" Dolin looked at Tiger and said.
Tiger nodded as if he understood. Then he glanced at Long Xiaonian and saw that she had no objection. He got up and ran towards the depths of the forest.
