Searching for food through the beast world

trick or treat

After dinner, the two lived in this small cave less than ten square meters.The animal skin blanket on the ground perfectly isolated the damp on the ground and the chill of the night, which made Ding Xiao feel pretty good.

The sound of burning firewood is particularly obvious and rhythmic at night.Birds, frogs, insects, and the sound of leaves being blown, these rhythms are pieced together, and they will become hypnotic tones unconsciously.

Ding Xiao fell asleep quickly, but he didn't seem to have slept for a while. He suddenly felt chest tightness and shortness of breath. After opening his eyes, he felt that something was wrong. His eyes were blurry, but it was obviously not a problem with his vision. "Kun! What's wrong?!"

Kun was looking through the medicine bag at this time: "There is fog in the Lost Forest, the fog is very strong, if you inhale too much, you will pass out."

Ding Xiao realized immediately that this was actually miasma, so after Kun handed over the powder, he quickly shook it into his mouth. "How do we do it?" Really depressed, the taste of this medicine powder is bitter and strange!

Kun has a slight headache at this time, which is rare for males.Especially for a strong male like Kun who is "treated" by a child prodigy, he really can't get used to it for a while. "It's better to lie down. In fact, sometimes there will be fog in the forest at night, some of which are poisonous, and some of which are not."

Lying back again, Ding Xiao put his arms around Kun's arm: "It seems that it is more dangerous at night than during the day. No wonder there are no large beasts. There is no way to sleep like this!" It would be miserable if he fell asleep and couldn't wake up again.

"Sleep after the fog clears." At this time, he was also unwilling to let Xiaoxiao close his eyes. For these phenomena they didn't understand, the orcs were more in awe and obedience.Kun is no exception.

The fog began to gather around eight or nine o'clock in the evening, and it didn't gradually dissipate until around twelve o'clock.

Ding Xiao was actually about to fall asleep after ten o'clock.After taking the medicine powder, the feeling of shortness of breath was indeed relieved, and there was still a little tightness in the chest, but it was not too hard for him.On the other hand, Kun felt more sad than himself in such an environment, perhaps because males are more sensitive to forest perception, and a strong body needs more supplies around them.

Anyway, when he woke up the next day, Ding Xiao felt that Kun's eye circles were a little dark.This has never been seen before. "Kun, are you okay? Are you tired? Is there any discomfort?"

Kun shook his head: "I'm fine, it's just that I didn't sleep yesterday. Males can stay up for many days. But the fog is very uncomfortable, and it's much better now."

Let Kun get up and walk around twice, Ding Xiao is completely relieved.So I started to make breakfast. In fact, I boiled the noodles with the radish soup left over from yesterday, and then roasted the salted pheasant last night.

While cutting the meat, Ding Xiao discovered something extraordinary. "Kun! Come and see!"

Seeing the jerky that Xiaoxiao handed over, Kun moved his nose and immediately frowned. "It's a bean monkey." Males are very sensitive to the smell of animals, and once they smell it, they will never forget it.The tooth marks on this jerky are small and dense, and the portion eaten is quite large. Judging from the very faint smell, it should be a bean monkey.This made Kun very annoyed.Didn't notice it at all yesterday!

When Ding Xiao heard the word "bean monkey", he immediately became excited. "Do the bean monkeys eat meat?"

Kun nodded: "They eat everything, even rotten meat. But I don't know much about it. I don't know that they also eat smoked jerky."

"That's right, you can eat it even if it's so salty, I don't think it's good or bad! Oh, yes, we can make a trap, and then we can easily catch the bean monkey." Since he came to eat, he also knew There is still food here, so this trap will be of great use.

Ding Xiao told Kun about his idea.It is to weave a net with the vines outside.Then use four poles to support it.A tendril is tied to one of them, and carefully prepared meat is placed under the net.As soon as the bean monkeys go in to scoop up the meat, they only need to pull down the pole to let the net fall, and then quickly tighten the opening of the net, so that the little things can't escape.

After hearing this idea, Kun immediately hugged her with a smile and kissed her fiercely. "It's a good way to scoop and hunt too!" As long as it's not used all the time, it's absolutely safe to catch medium-sized game once in a while.Of course, the premise is to have a stronger net.

As soon as they said it, the two of them carried dried meat and animal skin blankets on their backs, and began to collect vines in the forest, picking out tough ones that are not too thick, so that they can be used easily without worrying about being broken.Maybe after catching the bean monkey, they can use this to catch other animals!

From collecting materials to weaving them into a web, it took them a whole day.Using the slingshot, Kun hit two rabbits, and they decided to try again to see if the bean monkey came to steal the food by accident, or was staring at the delicacy in their hands.

Ding Xiao made a delicious roast rabbit meat with various materials collected in the forest.

The barbecue sauce made of sesame leaves, coriander sprouts, fennel leaves, radish puree, green garlic paste, salt and a sweet berry is roasted in peach wood, exuding an extremely charming aroma.The two of them watched the surroundings carefully while eating, but within Kun's alert range, there was really no bean monkey. Of course, this could not be ruled out because the breath and smell of the bean monkey were extremely weak.They found a few traces of civet cats, but unfortunately they would not approach male orcs.

At night, the two of them nestled on the animal skin blanket, and they took the medicine powder just as the fog was about to condense.Today's symptoms were not so obvious, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief. "Kun, I think you are more uncomfortable than me."

Kun nodded: "I smoke more than you."

Ding laughed embarrassingly, but it seemed that this might really be the case. "Can't we keep our eyes open?"

Kun closed his eyes and said, "I haven't caught the bean monkey before, so try it." Maybe it's not affected by too much fog today, so it shouldn't be impossible to find the bean monkey.

As a result, when the two woke up the next day, they found that the roasted rabbit leg placed on the stone platform had been eaten, leaving only a freshly cleaned bone.The point is that the baskets where they put the jerky were also messed up, and some grass leaves were placed on it, which made Ding Xiao very angry.This is their ration these days! "Eat my things, steal my things and make trouble with me! This monkey is too bad! Kun! You must catch it tonight! I must starve it for a few meals!"

So that night, the world's first trap for catching monkeys was successfully set up.

Ding Xiao looked at his hidden watch, and at around 11:30 in the evening, a small black shadow suddenly flashed in from the entrance of the cave.Then he shook his head at the entrance of the cave as if observing something in the cave.

At this moment, Kun and Ding Xiao were still lying on the animal skin blanket.Just facing the entrance of the cave, Ding Xiao had a rope tied to the pole in his hand, while Kun held the rope to close the net.Both of them squinted their eyes and stared at the little monkey.It was just waiting for him to fetch the carefully roasted chicken leg from the stone under the net.

As a result, this process made the two of them wait hard and struggle.Because they can't move the place and let this "score" run away, they can't move at all. If they accidentally trigger the mechanism first, they are afraid that it will be difficult to catch the bean monkey if it is vigilant.But the dead monkey didn't go directly to scoop up the chicken legs, but wandered to the basket of jerky again, jumped in and tossed around quietly, tore off a piece of jerky and ran out of the cave.

This pissed off the two of them.Did this monkey boy change his taste today and want to eat jerky again?And this time I still scoop it up and eat it?As a result, before their depression was over, the bean monkey came back again.Although the jerky in his hand was gone, there was a large handful of grass leaves.After it threw the grass leaves into the bamboo basket, it jumped to the side of the chicken leg as if relieved.

Pull the rope, reverse the pole, and collect the net.Followed by the bean monkey's "squeak squeak" scream.The little thing is not big, but his voice is quite loud, making Kun frown all the time.

Ding Xiao scooped the chicken legs into his hands, and shook the bean monkey struggling in the net: "Little thing, do you want to eat? If you want to eat, just stop!" Although he didn't think the bean monkey could hear the two of them talking , but it is obvious from the previous behavior of this monkey that it is intelligent.Maybe it's just like a one or two-year-old child, but he shouldn't be indifferent to his own voice.

Sure enough, as Ding Xiao expected, when he saw the chicken leg, the bean monkey stopped struggling immediately, but looked at the chicken leg, his big eyes were watery, and he had a posture of "give it to me, I want to eat!".

Ding Xiao was immediately attracted by the appearance of the bean monkey. "If you want to eat, be obedient and don't make noise, but you are too good at harming the food. You can get it just by eating it, and you even get a pile of grass and throw it up! Do you know that you are hurting others and not benefiting yourself?! Punish you for not eating at night!"

"Squeak!!" Seeing that the chicken leg had left his sight, the bean monkey yelled again.

Kun listened and said, "Here, I can't eat it anyway."

Ding Xiao was speechless for a while while squatting and being trapped in the net but still hugging the chicken leg and eating the incomparably sweet bean monkey.Heartless is probably the monkey's current state, right?

"Kun, can we go back tomorrow?" Although there are many ingredients here that are easy to get, the miasma at night is very annoying. Although the medicine powder is effective, it is always uncomfortable.

Kun nodded: "I found hard vines at the door and weaved a cage for it."

"Yes, yes! Make it bigger and stronger. I'm afraid it will bite the cage. By the way, can this net work? Are its claws and teeth strong?"

"These are vines, not grass. They are very strong. It can't bite, and its claws are not too sharp, but we still have to watch them. I won't sleep tonight."

"That's right. Anyway, go out early tomorrow morning. I didn't expect it to go so smoothly, haha, Elder Bai and the others must be very surprised!" Thinking of this, Ding Xiao had a desire to be taken aback.

The cage made by Kun is very strong, so the bean monkey will not feel uncomfortable in it.It's not that he likes the monkey and wants to treat it well, it's because no one has managed to capture the bean monkey alive, and the bean monkey is still intact.As far as the state of the monkey is concerned, Kun believes that even if the time for their first pass is exceeded, they will not be completely denied, not to mention that they only spent three days.

Ding Xiao couldn't help but fell asleep in Kun's arms after putting the bean monkey in the cage.A punctual biological clock is not something everyone can afford.

He slept very late the first day, so Ding Xiao naturally woke up a little later.The first time he woke up and got up, he saw a monkey and a man glaring at each other across the cage.

"Uh... what are you doing?" Ding Xiao noticed that there were a lot of dirt on Kun's head, and he looked a little embarrassed, "What did you do with your hair?"

Kun was grinding his teeth. "It threw it!"

"Pfft!" Ding Xiao burst out laughing.Yesterday, for the sake of safety, the bean monkey was placed within Kun's reach. Presumably, his own black tiger didn't sleep well all night, but he didn't know what kind of mentality the monkey had. Kun throws dirt.Glancing at the ground beside the cage, he wanted to laugh even more.

"Squeaky!!!" Seeing that the person who scooped up the delicious food for him yesterday got up, the bean monkey immediately called out, holding the vines on the cage, and looked at Ding Xiao with big round eyes.

Xiaoxiao suddenly understood the meaning of the bean monkey: "Maybe he is hungry?" But such a big thing, after making a chicken leg about its height in one go yesterday, I didn't see him excreting. ?Why are you hungry again this morning?

Kun snorted coldly: "I'm hungry!" Then he pulled the dirt on his head to the cage, stood up and left the cave.Of course, he didn't go far, he just washed his head in the stream beside him, and picked up two radishes by the way.

The confrontation between one person and one monkey early in the morning was really amusing. Ding Xiao couldn't help snickering as he made carrot fried jerky.This made Brother Kun, who felt ashamed, have a worse attitude towards Douhou.Deliberately scooping up the deliciously roasted jerky and eating happily in front of the cage, and deliberately smacking his mouth.

This made Ding Xiao even happier.After putting the fried radish jerky into the heated pancake and handing it to Kun, he ate it and said, "What are you fussing about with a monkey!"

"If you waste food, you will starve!" So I am definitely not throwing dirt on my head because of it!

Ding Xiao was speechless, this aboveboard reason was really irrefutable. "You'd better turn around and eat it, don't throw a handful of dirt when it gets angry, let alone eat it."

I don't know if the bean monkey understood Ding Xiao's words, or it was ready to do this long ago.In short, the next move that followed it was to scratch the soil with two small paws from the ground, and then throw it at Kun's pancake!

Fortunately, Kun had already moved the things in his hand back when Ding Xiao said it, otherwise the cake and jerky would have been ruined.But just because of this, Brother Kun's anger became even bigger.Put the cake in Xiaoxiao's hand, then stretched out his hand to cover his partner's ears, with luck in his dantian, he roared towards the cage.Although the voice in human form was not as loud as in animal form, it was still very intimidating to a small monkey.

The bean monkey deflated the eggplant all at once.When Ding Xiao let go of his ears and looked into the cage, the little guy was pitifully nestling his head between his legs, trembling.It looks so pitiful. "You scared him." Seriously, Ding Xiao really felt a little guilty.Originally, the little guy was living well, but when they came, they not only wanted to take it away, but also refused to eat breakfast, and were yelled at by a big tiger. It was really sad to hear, and the listener shed tears!

Seeing that his partner felt sorry for the monkey, although he also felt that he was "overqualified" just now, his dissatisfaction with the monkey rose to a higher level.snort!When you hand in the test questions, you must roast this little thing and eat it! (←← Dreaming!)
