Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

"Huo~An~" Lin Xia gritted her teeth. She shouldn't have believed him.

Looking at the simple tent in front of him which was only 2 square meters at most, Lin Xia was speechless.

Want to know what this tent looks like? You can refer to an episode of a Korean variety show, "Where Are We Going, Dad?", in which the production team asked all the fathers to prepare tents. One of the children was named Minguo. His father borrowed a tent from his colleague and was told that this tent was very powerful and very convenient to fold and unfold.

When they arrived at the destination, they saw that other fathers had carefully built complicated tents, which had rooms, living rooms, kitchens, and all kinds of utensils. The tent of Minguo was indeed easy to fold and put away, and it was an indoor toy tent that could be thrown into the air. Another father, Cheng Dongjun, said coldly: You will freeze to death.

You know, the temperature in South Korea in winter is dozens of degrees below zero, and they record the show on an ice lake.

Lin Xia’s current situation is better than that of the Republic of China. At least it is not dozens of degrees below zero in winter, and she does not have to stay outside for three days and two nights, just taking a rest at noon.

But this super simple tent doesn’t even have a waterproof mat, just a thin layer of cloth. This is a rocky mountain, and there isn’t much else. There are broken stones everywhere. Can you sit or lie down in this tent?

If you go camping by the lake where Kappa lives, this tent will not be so useless!

This deceiving Huo An! I have to go find him next time!

There was no choice but to fold up the tent and find a large, flat rock with some shade to rest on.

Since your physical strength has been severely lost but not exhausted, your fatigue level has not increased and you just need to replenish your physical strength.

So he drank a bottle of stamina potion and ate some food and fruit.

I originally wanted to sleep in the tent for a while, but now, let’s stop here for today and go back.

Lin Xia packed up her things and looked around, and found that the plants here were different from those in the mountains!

Following the gaps between the stones, I found several conspicuous plants, which were obviously different from weeds!

Two of these species are particularly common on rocks and in rock crevices, and have very distinctive shapes.

One type of leaf is oval, looking a bit like cat or rabbit ears, green on the surface and brown on the back, with star-like patterns. The whole plant is 5-15 cm tall, with a slender and horizontal rhizome.

There is another plant not far from this one, with a more special leaf shape. It is a fern-like plant with leaves all arranged alternately, thick in texture and smooth in surface.

Lin Xia picked some roots, stems and leaves of these two plants and prepared to take them back to show Dot.

After finishing all this, Lin Xia felt very hot. There were many rocks here, unlike the mountains where there were huge trees everywhere and it was very cool.

Lin Xia kept drinking water and hurried into the mountains. He hadn’t checked his traps today!

Especially since we added the pheasant snare yesterday, I feel like we can gain something.

Since we entered the mountain from the northwest this time, the first place we arrived at was a small pit, and this time there was movement inside!

Lin Xia immediately went to the edge of the pit, and there was another fat rabbit in it, haha~

Knock the rabbit unconscious, tie it up around your waist, and continue walking inside.

Near the pheasant trap, I heard a fluttering sound. Did I catch the pheasant?

Lin Xia walked forward excitedly and took a look. Wow, there were two pheasants, one of which was caught in a noose, and the other one must have been first caught by the vines next to it, and then caught by the noose again. When the pheasant flapped its wings, it was entangled by the rope on its feet again, and now they were completely wrapped together.

What good luck!

Lin Xia hurried forward and pulled the vines next to her. She tied the chicken's wings first, and then tied its beak. She had no choice but to tie them up. Lin Xia didn't want to break the chicken's neck right away, and she was afraid that the pheasant would peck her. The pheasants here were very ferocious.

Then they released the pheasants from the noose, but immediately tied their feet with straw vines. The two chickens were tied up tightly.

Lin Xia took out the multifunctional net again, put the rabbit and two pheasants in it, tied the net mouth, put it aside, and rearranged the noose.

This noose is really useful, buy one get one free!

After finishing, he carried the prey on his back and continued to walk to several other places where snares were set, but this time he didn't get anything.

Finally, they arrived at the big pit trap. After discovering that the trap cover had fallen into the pit again, Lin Xia felt excited again.

I took a closer look. Wow~

At the bottom of the pit was a roe deer. It was not particularly big, but not small either. It was about 1 meter long.

How do I get this up here?

My luck today is too good, isn't it? Wait, did I eat the lucky fruit?

Lin Xia broke out in a cold sweat. Guozi wanted to make a lot of money - make Huo An's money - make 100 million by guessing riddles and exchanging them for flowers!

He immediately checked his backpack, and luckily the fruits were still there. That meant that he was able to catch so many prey today only because his traps worked!

Now I am worried again, what should I do with this stupid roe deer?

Dead ones definitely won't work. Huo An said last time that dead ones are worthless, and he won't kill them anyway.

It’s easy to deal with pheasants and rabbits by yourself, but how do you kill such a big roe deer?

Lin Xia jumped into the pit and the roe deer was scared and ran around everywhere. Fortunately, it was not a goat, because goats can be aggressive and roe deer are timid.

There is no other way, I can only use the thousand and first trick, knock him out. Anyway, I am not afraid of knocking him silly, as long as he is not killed.

He found a strong nylon rope to tie the roe deer's limbs, carried it on his shoulders, and used a flying hook to pull it out of the trap.

After restoring the trap, he put the roe deer and the chickens and rabbits in the net on his back. The roe deer only weighed about 50 kilograms after it fainted (it would struggle when awake, adding weight!), and the chickens and rabbits together weighed nearly kilograms. Lin Xia was still able to carry them, but his strength was constantly draining away!

Lin Xia ate some fruit to replenish her water while she was on the road.

It took us two hours to finally get out of the forest. We went back home first, took one of the more beautiful pheasants and roe deer with us, and prepared to sell them, leaving a rabbit and a pheasant for ourselves.

Huo An was stunned when he saw the roe deer and pheasants that Lin Xia brought over. This girl had no hunting skills at all. She just made a few simple traps. But she was lucky!

We caught a bamboo rat the first time, and later we caught a wild boar. Roe deer usually live in groups and are very agile, but this time it also fell into the pit.

I have to admire it!

Huo An rubbed his hands happily and asked with a smile: "Sell both animals to me? I will definitely give you a good price!"

Lin Xia said arrogantly: "I won't sell it to you!"

"Huh~?" Huo An was dumbfounded. "Did I offend you again?"

"What do you say?"
