When everything was ready, Yu Chengfeng lit a fire, first crushed the caustic soda and threw it into the pot.
He didn't protect his hands when pounding it, so after pounding it for a while, his hands began to turn red and hurt.
However, the alkalinity of caustic soda is not strong, and at most it can only burn through a little skin and flesh. However, the alkalinity of caustic soda is dozens of times that of caustic soda. As long as it is swallowed by the prey, it will immediately burn through the belly of the prey.
After the caustic soda began to emit thick white smoke, Yu Chengfeng immediately poured the prepared lime water into the pot, and the thick smoke immediately spread with a hissing sound.
Yu Chengfeng hurriedly hid aside. He knew that the smoke alone was enough to burn his respiratory tract.
The fire burned for about half an hour before it dried up. After it dried out, there was a layer of white powder at the bottom of the pot. Yu Chengfeng carefully poured it out and put it in a small earthen pot.
Now that everything was ready, Yu Chengfeng went into the house and took a look at An Ning. He was still lying on the bed, added some firewood to the kang hole, and went out with the earthen pot.
When I reached the door, I felt uneasy, so I went to my neighbor's house to call Goudan, and asked him to go inside to accompany An Ning. Then I walked to the meat stall, spent some money to buy a few pairs of slugs, and carried them outside the castle.
In fact, it’s not that no one eats sewer in ancient times, it’s just that the dignitaries didn’t eat it. Poor people like them would be fine with some meaty food.
After carrying the water out of the fort and walking for about twenty miles, we were close to the mountains and forests. At this time, the sun was hanging behind us and was about to set.
This time point was specially chosen by Yu Chengfeng. At night, there would be many more animals coming out to hunt.
He had thought about it. He planned to hunt a few foxes or badgers. With the same dose of caustic soda, if he wanted to hunt, he would definitely hunt high-value animals.
Moreover, caustic soda will only burn through the throat and will not have any effect on the animal's fur. The furs of foxes and badgers alone are worth more than a dozen rabbits.
Yu Chengfeng was thinking about it while observing the terrain. He came to a vent, filled a pair of sewers with caustic soda, and then threw it on the ground. In this way, the wind would carry the smell of sewers to a higher level. Far away.
Then he found a few more places, and a total of three mates went into the water, dividing them into five traps.
The next thing to do is to wait. After everything is set up, it is already night. At this time, the cold wind is starting to pick up, and the way back is also very dangerous. Moreover, if we go back tonight, we will have to check the traps tomorrow morning. Whether it is physical strength or time, They all cost too much.
Yu Chengfeng finally decided to simply find a place to sleep in the mountains for one night.
He walked in the dark to the base of the mountain and saw a cave. It was dark inside, but he could not smell the fishy smell of any wild beasts outside.
At this time, he had been outside in the cold wind for about two hours, and his body was already freezing. After thinking twice, he still got into the cave.
As soon as I came in, I could feel that it was obviously much warmer. As my body warmed up, my spirit gradually relaxed. I found some dry firewood, built a simple bonfire, and started to warm up by the bonfire.
After warming up for a while, my hands and feet gradually became softer, and I heard some strange sounds coming from deep inside the cave.
Yu Chengfeng was a teacher in his previous life and didn't believe in ghosts and gods, so he held a torch and walked into the cave. The cave was not shallow, and he walked more than 20 steps before encountering a corner.
Yu Chengfeng stretched out his torch and looked around. This sight almost scared half of his soul!
Deep in the cave at the corner, an extremely large black bear was sleeping!
The strange sound that Yu Chengfeng heard before was the sound of the bear snoring.
Yu Chengfeng's hand holding the torch trembled a little. In the memory of his original owner, there was a saying that there was a bear, two tigers and three pigs in this mountain.
It means that among the animals in the mountains, the most terrifying one is the black bear, followed by tigers and wild boars.
The black bear, which weighed only a thousand kilograms, was sleeping soundly less than ten steps away from Yu Chengfeng, but it made Yu Chengfeng break into a cold sweat.
He ran towards the cave entrance quietly and almost without thinking. When he reached the cave entrance, he dared to stop and take a deep breath.
Yu Chengfeng hurriedly packed his things and planned to leave, but he felt troubled when he looked at the night and snow outside.
He is not a person who is familiar with mountains. Once he goes out of this cave, he may encounter animals that hunt at night, or he may get lost in the forest due to wind and snow. The thin cotton coat on his body cannot support him. Staying in the wild overnight.
what to do? If you go out, you will die, if you don't go out, you will die!
Yu Chengfeng's brain was spinning rapidly, and he finally decided to stay in the cave.
That bear should be hibernating. It won't wake up easily at this time. As long as he is careful, nothing will happen to him.
Yu Chengfeng nervously placed the things on hand and curled up against the bonfire. He had started to feel sleepy because of the warmth, but now he no longer had the thought of sleeping and resting, so he stayed up until dawn with his eyes open.
When it was dawn and he could see the road clearly, Yu Chengfeng took his things and left the cave, heading towards the trap he had set.
He walked over with anxiety and saw a pure white fox lying at the first trap, with a lot of blood flowing from its mouth, and it was already out of breath.
Yu Chengfeng lifted it up and touched its fur. It was so smooth that it could be sold for at least two taels of silver!
With the joy of harvest, Yu Chengfeng walked towards the second trap, and saw a badger, also called Pizi, lying upside down beside the second trap.
But the fur of this fur was loose and thick. Looking at the yellowed canine teeth in its mouth, Yu Chengfeng judged that this was an old fur. Fur of this quality could not be sold for much money, but it had It was better than nothing, so Yu Chengfeng still put it away.
The water in the third trap was gone, but there were no animal carcasses or footprints nearby. Yu Chengfeng squinted for a while and concluded that it was probably placed in a wind outlet and blown elsewhere by the strong wind at night.
Yu Chengfeng sighed a little, and then rushed to the two traps below. The fourth trap was another skin, but this one was younger, had smooth fur, and could be sold at a high price.
Near the fifth trap, there was blood vomited by animals, and there were even signs of fallen corpses, but there was no corpse.
Finally, after searching around for a long time, he found a bunch of people's footprints. Only then did Yu Chengfeng realize that someone else had climbed there first, so he had no choice but to give up and walk back with quite a lot of gains.
When he returned to the city, he first went to the leather goods shop and threw the three prey on the counter as soon as he came up.
