Although Tisuo specifically told her not to run around before going to bed, Ayun had other ideas after making the spear. In addition to putting some leaves on the fence to hide it, there is a height difference between the cave and the fence. I think I can put broad leaves on it to make a shed.
This was done very quickly. It took her only a short time to collect the broad leaves she needed, and then put them on the fence and the cave, like tiles, making a small hole for the entrance of her cave. Out of the shed. From a distance, this place looks like a small house. Ayun removed a few pieces from the side of the fence, tied them together with vines to make a small door panel, and then tied them with fixed wooden sticks to make a narrow side door.
The gaps in the fence were filled with leaves, and Ayun also specially picked many small branches with leaves and inserted them into the ground outside the fence to make them look like they grew naturally. The height difference between the fence and the cave was covered by broad leaves. In order to prevent the broad leaves from sliding down, Ayun used a small wooden stick to pierce the roots of the broad leaves and then nailed them to the top of the cave.
There is about one square meter of space inside the fence, where Ayun piles the stones and other debris he collected. Insect shells are also placed here.
The transformation of the outside of the cave probably ends here, and Ayun's ability to further transform it is limited. After finishing the roof of the shed, Ayun went over to take a look at Tisuo's condition. He was still sleeping soundly. He didn't know what time he stayed awake last night... He couldn't have slept all night, right?
Ayun picked up the clothes that had fallen off Tisuo's face, refolded them and put them back to cover his eyes.
The food has been collected in the morning, and the fence renovation has come to an end... What should we do next? Continue exploring the bushland? Or transform the inside of the cave?
At this stage, the benefits of exploration are definitely greater but also more dangerous. Modifying and expanding the interior of the cave will allow her to sleep more comfortably, but other than this, there is no substantial benefit.
Ayun picked up the newly prepared spear and weighed it a few times in his hand. She knew of a few places not far from the cave, where small animals and fairly huge bugs would pop up from time to time. Why not try hunting?
And it's not far from the cave. She can hear Tisuo as long as he screams a few times after he wakes up... But Tisuo came to help her keep vigil in the past two days because the surrounding area was unsafe.
But just stay around, nothing will happen, right? Ayun felt like he was a bit like a brat who wanted to go to the community to play but was afraid of being discovered by his family.
Forget it, wait until Tiso wakes up before going out and trying to hunt? He can also teach her what to do. Just when Ayun was about to put down her spear, she heard a strange sound, rustling... coming from the west side of the cave.
What a coincidence! Because she often hangs around the cave during the day, animals basically don't come here during the day. Hopefully a smaller, slower animal. Ayun tightened his spear and slowly moved towards the place where the sound was heard.
The grass on the west side of the cave is relatively lush, reaching about around the knees. If you walk a hundred meters further down, the grass will become sparse. She leaned against the outer circle of the cave, and the rustling sound was very weak, and it didn't sound like anything. It's a bug. Although it's soft, the sound is still relatively real.
She hadn't seen anything yet, and Ayun's palms were already sweating from nervousness. She felt that she needed to successfully hunt something, whether it was bugs or small animals.
The strange sound suddenly became a little louder, from a rustling feeling to a regular 'click, click, click'. The change in the sound made Ayun stop, because the clicking sound did not sound like the sound of something walking, but like a knocking sound.
At this time, she had moved into the taller grass, because the grass was very dense and there was no way to know what was inside without pushing it away with her hands. insect? Is it a bug? If the hard shell of an insect hits the soil, it will probably make such a sound?
But why do insects keep tapping their shells on the ground... Ayun felt a little weird, because the clicking sounds became louder and the intervals became longer. What is the most important thing for wilderness survival? When you intuitively feel danger, just turn around and leave, and Ayun is also preparing to do so.
Just as she kept facing and began to slowly retreat, the voice stopped suddenly. She was too frightened to move. The surroundings became quiet for a moment, and Ayun didn't dare to breathe... Something was wrong, something strange seemed to have been provoked.
After waiting quietly for a while, the rustling sound started again, and then... a bird with bright fur flew away from the grass. Ayun held the spear and stood there with his mouth wide open.
Just a bird? ! !
She held the spear in vain and poked it into the sky a few times, but unfortunately the bird had already flown away. The rustling sound is the sound of birds moving or the wings of cattail brushing the grass. What is that clicking sound? Ayun walked a few steps forward and came to the place where the birds flew away. He pushed aside the grass and took a few glances...
The remains of a bunch of insects were left here. They were the huge ants from before. The clicking sound was probably the sound of a bird puncturing the hard shell of the ant's head with its beak.
What a pity, Ayun sighed, if she had taken a few more steps forward, would she have been able to catch the bird... But it was not completely without gain. The hard kisser on the head of the ant remained, and there were still some on the grass. The down that the bird scraped off from the grass has a few long bright yellow feathers in addition to the down, which is quite beautiful.
Ayun packed up these things with regret and stored them inside the fence. While Tisuo didn't wake up, he re-planned the food.
In the past few days, I had not had any worries about eating or drinking, and even enjoyed a fish dinner. Ayun felt that she might have been a little too arrogant and needed to regain her respect for food... She sat aside and began to review the mention in her mind. Suo taught her what to eat in the rain forest.
The small rubber mushrooms that Tisso brought yesterday are the easiest to obtain and the most abundant. The only bad thing is that they grow deep in the rain forest, in the most humid place. If Ayun wanted to pick these mushrooms by himself, he would need twenty more courages.
The rest were some wild fruits that could occasionally be seen growing on the turf near the green slopes. Her plan to learn how to make flakes came to nothing as she could not obtain the raw materials. But... Ayun is really not that worried about food anymore, and it's all thanks to Tisuo, who made her know a lot of food.
After Ayun was in a daze for a while, Tisuo finally woke up. He sat up and stretched: "Comfortable...!"
Seeing that he woke up, Ayun couldn't wait to show off the spear he had just made, and told Tisuo about the bird he had just encountered in the grass.
"Bird?" Tisuo weighed the spear made by Ayun. "This is okay. It should be successful."
As he said this, Tisuo took Ayun's hand and said, "I'll teach you! It's very simple."
What, can you teach hunting while you’re still sleeping? Ayun happily followed Tisuo, and the two returned to the grass.
"There will be a lot of bugs here." Tisuo used his spear to push away the grass, and inside there were several disgusting bugs that were round and round like watermelon bugs. He swished a few times with his spear and poked three of them on the bone fragments. "This, It’s okay to eat.”
Ayun looked at the insects still writhing in pain on the spearhead. Their shells were broken, and their internal organs, like passion fruit pulp, flowed out along the cracks...
"But it will be numb." Tisuo stuck out his tongue. "If you eat too much, you will lose your feeling. Be careful."
"OK!"
Tisuo took the bug off the spear. Ayun instinctively thought that Tisuo was going to feed her again, so she moved silently and closed her mouth. Fortunately, Tisuo didn't force her to eat the bugs. Instead, he broke the bugs open with his hands and smeared the bug's internal organs on the grass: "They will smell it, bait."
After smearing the bugs, Tisuo took Ayun away from the grass: "This is preparation work. Next, we wait."
After waiting for an hour, Ayun couldn't sit still, but Tisuo kept focusing on the grass where the bait was applied. At this time, he was not like the usual clumsy Tisuo.
His ears stood up completely and his pupils became a little smaller. His brows were furrowed and his arm muscles tensed. The whole person was motionless, which is not an exaggeration, but really as motionless as a piece of wood. Not even the ups and downs of breathing can be seen.
The blinking frequency is also terrifyingly low.
After another ten minutes, a big gray bird finally entered the grass area and hovered above it for a while. Start flying towards the place where the bait is applied.
Ayun felt a strong wind blowing from her cheek. Before she could realize what happened, there was a falling sound from the direction of the grass.
"..." She looked at Tisuo speechlessly, and he still maintained the movement at the end of the throw. Everything happened so fast that the bird didn't even touch the bait on the grass before Tisso threw the wooden spear.
The strength was so great that Ayun swore he even heard the sound of cutting through the air just now... The bird that was hit didn't even have time to scream.
"Successful, how about it!" Tisuo's ears drooped. "Capturing birds, easy."
Where is the simplicity? ? ?
Ayun followed Tisuo dumbfounded and went to check the loot in the grass. The poor bird was poked through and stuck directly between the sticks.
"The weapon is good." Tisuo picked up the stick and checked the top. "This method is so powerful. I will learn it too."
What? Does it mean getting the bone fragments stuck in the gaps between the sticks? Ayun couldn't believe that Tisuo and the others didn't have such weapons. Speaking of which, he had never seen Tisuo and the others' serious weapons?
"Ayun, so smart! Is it the technology in your settlement?"
Ayun scratched his head: "Yes, yes..." Right?
"Ayun, where is the settlement?" After hearing Ayun's answer, Tisuo couldn't explain his feelings for a moment, "Will you go back?"
"I want to go back." Ayun sighed, "I can't go back, it's far, far away."
"How far is it? I'll take you back."
"Very far away!" Ayun stretched out his arms and gestured, "I can't go back!"
"Why? Why can't you go back?" Tisuo began to frown and mutter, "Ayun, are you hated by your family?"
No, now is not the time to talk about this kind of thing, we still have bird carcasses to deal with! Ayun tugged on Tisuo's wrist: "Bird!"
What Ayun didn't expect was that Tisuo actually raised his hand to avoid it: "Tell me why you can't go back. I'll give you another bird."
Aren't you a simple savage? When did you learn such insidious negotiation skills?
But from that sentence - I will send you back. It can be seen that Tisuo is really worried about her, and it can also be known that there is no chance that she will enter Tisuo's settlement. Even though they had already talked about it being very far away, Tisuo still didn't mind sending her back.
It's a bit helpless and there is nothing I can do.
"I can't go back. The reason is the same as your settlement." It's impossible for Ayun to tell Tisuo that she comes from a future tens of thousands of years in the future. Even if she wanted to, she didn't know how to say "Do you understand, I won't accept it" in the local dialect? Me. Because..." She pointed at her face.
"no the same."
Tisuo's ears drooped even more: "Ayun, how pitiful."
Don't say it! ! Ayun glared angrily and hammered Tisuo's stiff arm: "It's not pitiful! I live a good life myself!"
Tisuo laughed again: "But I'm not full."
"..." What's going on with this guy's character? Isn't he that kind of twisted savage? "Bird, is it okay?"
"That's it!" Tisuo pulled Ayun and trotted towards the entrance of the cave. He looked even more excited than Ayun. "The bird just died, it's delicious."
Uh, that's so scary.
But this one is said to be a bird... and it is not like the cute little birds that are common in modern times. They are huge, super ugly, and it is difficult to describe the ugliness in words. The wings are very wide, and the claws have not deteriorated. There are still small claws at the first joint of the wings. The legs are slender and look like centipedes with many bristles. The beak is not a triangular pyramid, but flat, with fine and dense sharp teeth on the edge.
The eyes protrude outward, and the two eyes are widely separated. In the middle are three large holes, which are probably noses. Too tall to look straight at.
Next, Ayun frowned and watched the whole process of tearing the ugly bird apart with his hands. His hair was stripped off in a few strokes, and his head was directly twisted off. He raised his head to Ayun and said, "You can't eat the head. "After that, he put it aside.
Then came the bird's body and wings. The bird's flesh and skin were a bit ugly yellow. Tisuo tore them into small pieces and handed them to Ayun: "Eat it."
As if it was unwashed chicken sashimi, Ayun opened his mouth and ate it without any hesitation. It was indeed as Tissot said, delicious.
It smells a bit bloody, but not overpowering. Because it had just been dead, the meat was still a little hot, very elastic, smooth and tender...
It would definitely taste better if you could add some chili!
"It's delicious! It's delicious!" Ayun kept eating the bird meat handed over by Tisuo, but when she was halfway through eating, she stopped listening and burped, "Tisuo, how to store this..."
"Storage?" Tisuo's bloody hand stopped in mid-air, as if he was thinking about what Ayun meant. "Storage..."
After Tisuo thought for a while, he realized what Ayun was referring to: "I'll teach you!"
"Okay!"
"I need stones." As soon as Tisuo finished speaking, Ayun ran back to the fence and took out several stones.
Tisuo then placed the meat on a stone, beat it with another stone, and patted the meat into thin slices: "Keep beating, and then keep pressing it with the stone."
Ayun was also learning the rope lifting action next to her. The production was simpler than she imagined. After flattening the meat, she pressed it with heavier stones. After pressing for enough time, she put it in the sun to dry.
Ah...is it that simple to make air-dried meat? Then wasn’t the big pot I had wasted due to improper handling... I regret it so much...
"After it's dried, it's not enough. You have to hang it on..." Tisuo took a piece of meat and looked around, and finally found a small branch on the fence and hung the meat on it. "That's it, it's good." "
After hanging the meat, Tisuo and Ayun immediately realized something at the same time. Just hanging the meat here will definitely attract strange predators.
"Well..." Tisuo frowned and began to examine Ayun's small cave. "Not even inside the fence. Not even inside the cave."
What should I do? Ayun was also a little stunned.
"I'll take it back and dry it for you at home."
"...!" Is this still possible? ! Ayun kept nodding, "Okay! Okay!"
Speaking of going home, Tisuo turned to look at Yulin: "It's time for me to go back." He looked back at Ayun, who was looking at him with bright eyes. Because she had just eaten meat, her mouth and face were There was still a lot of blood on it.
I don't want to go back, I want to continue playing with Ayun...Ayun still has a lot to learn.
Just take her back and hide her at home. No one should be able to find out... Tisuo has thought about this more than once in the past few days, but he is still afraid, afraid that his mistress will punish him and Ayun. His current behavior of running out every day has made other people in the settlement a little dissatisfied.
"Ayun, what if I don't come for a few days..."
Not coming for many days? It might be a little lonely. Ayun probably knows why Tisuo asked: "It's okay! Before Tisuo, I was here by myself."
I still wanted to stay and play with Ayun for a while, but it was really getting late. It must have been known that he didn't go back last night...
Tisuo put away all the meat pieces: "I will bring them to you after they are dried!"
…
…………
After Tisuo left, Ayun went back to check the spear he had used. The head was a little crooked and needed to be refixed.
It's still early anyway, let's learn the method of lifting the rope just now. Ayun came to the grass and soon caught several large watermelon bugs. After a while of mental preparation, Ayun reached out and grabbed the watermelon bugs, tore them apart from the middle to let the juice flow out as much as possible, and rubbed it on the grass blades. superior.
After getting the bait, Ayun slipped to a hidden place nearby. Because she didn't have the arm strength and shooting accuracy like Tisuo, she could only stay closer to the bait, but she tried to hide herself as much as possible. This should be fine!
What followed was waiting, a long wait... During this period, a few birds flew by, but they did not hover and land. Ayun thought it might be because he was too obvious, so after thinking about it, he retreated further away and lowered his body.
This time the wait was much longer than when Tisso was here. When the sun was setting, a bird came down and landed in the grass.
A rustling sound came, and Ayun's hands were shaking with excitement because he was really waiting for the prey. She prepared herself mentally for a while and calmed herself down before slowly moving in the direction of the prey.
It was very slow, it felt like I was moving slower than a snail, and there was no sound at all. She clenched the stick tightly, and although her palms were sweaty, they did not tremble.
When Tisuo hunts, she takes action before the target falls into the grass. Naturally, she cannot learn that move. She can only slowly close the distance to the prey that has landed in the grass without making a sound... Based on the swaying in the grass, she could probably tell where the target was parked.
No problem, just find the right spot and pierce it hard. The stick is long enough... Ayun slowly raised the stick and then pierced it towards the place where the grass was shaking. Some shrill cries sounded, and Ayun rushed forward and caught the prey that was stabbed with a wooden stick.
Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, the feeling of the prey struggling in her arms told her that she had succeeded!
She actually succeeded in hunting...she must show off when Tisuo comes!
However, for people like Ayun who go to the wet market to buy fish and have the boss help handle it, it is still a bit too difficult to handle live animals. The prey in his hands was only partially injured by the wooden stick, and it still has offensive power. When Ayun When he pressed it to the ground, it kept flapping and left many scars on Ayun's hands.
Ayun looked at it with mixed emotions. It was different from a bug... it was a furry animal. Although it looked a bit ugly, the color of its blood was the same.
"I'm sorry!" Ayun pulled out the wooden stick, shouted to encourage himself, closed his eyes and pierced the prey's abdomen.
It feels strange, and you can feel that you have destroyed something soft through the stick. It's a touch that immediately makes people feel guilty and frightened.
Ayun regretted it almost immediately. Something warm sprayed on her arm, her breathing became rapid and her heartbeat increased rapidly.
She is not a ruthless person, and she has kept pets before... Although it is unfair to the watermelon bugs that died in her hands as bait, there is no way... Killing furry animals will put a psychological burden on her.
Ayun didn't dare to look at the corpse of the prey on the ground, nor did he dare to stand up. The joy of a successful hunt disappeared the moment she made her move.
She could clearly feel that the prey in her hand gradually lost its movement and turned into a pile of soft flesh, like a rag doll hanging on the edge of the bed.
...Why is it that watching Tisuo do it is a completely different state of mind than doing it by herself... Ayun tried to calm down. She felt that she was a bit of a jerk now, but her hands were still shaking instinctively.
