I'm not a wild eater

"Especially after eating bitter seeds, it will be even sweeter."

"Bitter first, then sweet, life is the right way."

After dinner, it was already dark.

Muqing dragged his chin, sighed while resting:

"It feels like the day is coming to an end without doing anything, and I have to get up early tomorrow, and I can't sleep in anymore."

"Five o'clock counts as six o'clock, and the live broadcast will start at six o'clock tomorrow."

Chapter 22 The Terrible Mission

The next morning.

The scorching sun shone on the land where Mu Qing was, and a righteous light shone on Mu Qing's big butt through the layers of tree branches.

The time displayed on the live ball made Muqing face a screen full of disgust and ridicule, without even a word to reply.

"It's really not my fault. The program team didn't equip me with an alarm clock. As soon as I open my eyes, it will be 09:30. What can I do?"

After a simple wash, Mu Qing squeezed the persimmons he brought back earlier.

It was all hard and there was nothing suitable to eat.

"There's no more food in stock. Poor thing, I don't even have enough for breakfast."

"Before I go out to look for food, I still have to be hungry, so I will check the situation of Huozhezi first."

Mu Qing squatted pitifully by the fire, checking the condition of the fire core that had been roasting all night.

"This one has been dried, it's pinched quite well, and it's not fried."

"Take it and see how it goes."

Mu Qing picked up a fire core and lit it in the fire, a spark appeared on the front end of the fire core.

With a light blow, the sparks lit up obviously, and more smoke came out.

"This product is actually the same thing as the incense that goes to worship in the temple. It has been burning continuously and slowly."

"I'm going to put it in the branches of the erythrina tree now to reduce its contact with the air, otherwise it will burn out soon."

Muqing prepared two sections of branches, one thick and one thin. The thin section was completely hollowed out, and one third of the front end of the other section was not hollowed out. A hole came out.

First put the fire core into the completely hollowed out erythrina branch, and then into another.

"I dug a hole here so the air can get in and out."

"If there is no air, the fire will go out quickly, and if there is too much contact with air, it will burn out quickly."

"In this way, putting them together can slow down the burning speed of the fire pocket, and can also protect the fire. Even if it encounters wind, rain or bumps, you don't have to worry about it going out."

"Just take it out when you need it."

Saying that, Mu Qing took out the Huozhezi from the two branches.

With a light blow, Huo Zhexin, which had been darkened, became bright again.

"It seems that it has no sparks, but it is actually burning all the time. If you blow it, the sparks will become bigger."

"Put it on the tinder and it will start a fire in no time."

[Dolls are prohibited. 】

[My animal husbandry is really amazing. 】

[Full of knowledge points, buy a stick of incense and try it when you get home, hahaha. 】

[I think it might be okay to try it with mosquito coils. 】

[Second, that's wonderful, this is an ancient lighter. 】

[Blow it, ah!It's gone, hahahaha. 】

Just to be on the safe side, Muqing lit another torch.

One on the body and one on the campsite.

With the Huozhangzi, Mu Qing felt relieved at once, picked up the backpack and took the machete and walked down the mountain.

It was still the hillside where the flint and steel fell that day.

He'd prefer to get the flint and steel back if he could.

Down the mountain, across the river, and up the mountain.

Muqing found the tree branch where he spent the night without any problems.

"Huh? The mouse trap I made seems to be triggered, let's go over and have a look." Muqing said in feigned surprise.

Seeing the trap triggered, this is the reaction that a normal person should have.

Walking quickly to the edge of the trap, and flipping over the stone slab, Mu Qing was stunned.

Under the stone slab, there was only a short section of the mouse's buttocks and mouse's tail, with some hair and blood on the side.

【Ahhh, ran away. 】

[What's the situation, the mouse ran away? 】

[Look around, if such a big rock is pressed down, even if it only hits the lower body, it will cause serious injuries and cannot escape. 】

[If only the tail is pressed and the mouse is big enough, there is still hope. 】

Mu Qing squatted down and carefully observed the situation around the trap.

"My mouse is gone, now there are two possibilities."

"In the first type, the mouse's tail was smashed off, and then it escaped physically and mentally."

"The second possibility is that my prey was picked up by passing predators."

"There is blood near the trap, and some mouse hairs. Personally, I am more inclined to the second possibility."

"Do you still remember the traces of the large animals that I saw when I came here last time?"

"If that large animal happens to be the one that ate my mouse"
