Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

The chicken lived up to her expectations.

Mu Xi took the roasted chicken off the stick, placed it on a wide leaf, and cut it up with a knife.

The sharp blade cuts across and pierces the skin, causing the juices in the chicken to flow out.

Mu Xi cut the chicken legs and wings, leaving the chicken body in half.

Each of them got a chicken leg and a chicken wing, and the chicken body was served with batter and snow cake.

Zhao Yeqing took out the salt from his backpack, pinched it with his fingertips and sprinkled it evenly on the surface of the chicken.

She took a bite while it was hot, her teeth cracked through the crispy skin, and the sweet gravy inside rushed to the tip of her tongue. There was only a faint salty taste, which made the sweetness more prominent.

The meat was fresh and tender, and there was no need to chew it carefully. It seemed as if there was no fiber in the meat. If she hadn't shot it herself, she would have thought it was a chicken that went out to do business before it reached adulthood.

The pheasants are not big, this one weighs just over a kilogram, and the drumsticks were gone in just two or three bites.

Her eyes were on the yam next to her again.

The starch content of wild yams is higher than that of cultivated yams. After roasting the water, the yams seem to have been sharpened, and the cross-section is full of powdery texture.

Mu Xi pulled out a piece, tasted it and said, "You can eat it."

Zhao Yeqing took the yam from Mu Xi with a leaf filled with chicken wings, blew the heat off, and took a bite.

The taste is completely different from cultivated yam, it is pink and waxy, like eating a combination of yam and chestnut sweet potato.

Zhao Yeqing took a bite of yam and a bite of chicken wings, feeling extremely satisfied.

The starch content is high enough that your stomach will feel full after just a few pieces of yam.

After resting for a while, the two of them prepared to wash up and rest.

The sticky oil on my hands fell off as soon as I rubbed it with soapberry, and my body was already sticky after a busy day.

Mu Xi turned around and walked into the shelter with his back to her, "You wash first."

The shelter faced the water source, and Mu Xi sat inside with his back to her.

Zhao Yeqing's face turned red.

She thought about not washing it at all, but if she kept sweating like this, she would probably become rancid tomorrow.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Don't turn around."

She thought Mu Xi would laugh at her and say she thought too much.

Unexpectedly, I saw his back sitting upright, and he only responded in a low voice, "Yes."

Zhao Yeqing took off his clothes without hesitation, turned his back to Mu Xi and started taking a shower.

She wanted to keep out of sight, just pretend that Mu Xi was not around and she was hiding her ears.

But as I was washing, I thought of someone behind me, so I couldn't help but turn around to make sure he was looking at her.

Mu Xi sat up straight and didn't move.

Zhao Yeqing finished the bath quickly, then exhaled and walked over, "I've finished washing... you can go ahead."

Mu Xi turned around and walked out with an expressionless expression. He didn't even look at her. He took a change of clothes and went to take a shower.

Seeing that he ignored her, as if this was a normal thing, Zhao Yeqing relaxed a little, sat in the shelter with his back to Mu Xi, and dried his hair with a towel.

Mu Xi was sleeping soundly next to him, and Xue Ping was lying outside the shelter, watching Mu Xi walk over to take a bath.

The little head tilted, as if he was curious about why this man walked with the same hands and feet.

After taking a bath, the two of them washed the clothes they wore today and hung them by the fire to dry in the morning.

The old rule was that Mu Xi went to bed first and got up at one o'clock in the morning to change shifts.

Zhao Yeqing asked him to sleep some more, and he had slept for less than three hours. Mu Xi refused and said he had slept enough.

At six o'clock in the morning, Zhao Yeqing got up and asked Mu Ximi to wait for a while before setting off.

Mu Xi did not refuse and lay down on the sleeping bag spread in the shelter.

After the weather has gotten hotter in the past few months, the fog no longer appears in the mountains, and the morning light shines into the woods at six o'clock.

Zhao Yeqing took the water in a pot and boiled it, sprinkled a handful of rice in it, cut a section of yesterday's leftover yam, peeled it and cut it into pieces, threw it in, covered it and cooked it.

As soon as the yam porridge was cooked, Mu Xi opened his eyes and went to wash up.

After breakfast, Mu Xi planned today's route.

He took a branch and started drawing on the ground.

"We are now at the foot of the cliff, at this location. We can reach the village by walking two kilometers further west. As long as we don't encounter cracks and there is water in the village, we will stay there first and then go back when the weather gets hotter. The chickens at home If not, we will collect whatever supplies we can and go home."

If there is no water source, it is better to stay in the mountains where the temperature is cooler.

Zhao Yeqing had no objection and nodded in agreement.

To the west, just in the direction of the creek's downstream flow.

The two put out the fire, packed up their things and set out, walking west along the creek.

Before they had even walked a kilometer, their hopes were dashed.

A dark and bottomless crack cut off the stream and appeared in front of their eyes.

The crack cut off the land in front of them, and they didn't dare to get closer and stepped back.

It's so dark that it's scary.

The two looked at each other and Mu Xi said, "Detour or go back?"

Zhao Yeqing was not willing to go back and wait for death. She looked at the width of the crack and found that it was not exactly the same. It became narrower as it extended to the north.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Go around!"

This crack is not like the one that cut off the main road before. This one looks like a branch. It is only ten meters wide. Maybe it can be bypassed.

The two turned around and walked north, intending to bypass the crack.

To the west is the downhill, and to the north is the uphill.

The road had to be cleared to climb the mountain, so it was not an easy journey.

Because it was near the crack, many trees had fallen down, and the road was full of broken cedar branches, and the dried cedar leaves that became sharper were everywhere.

The two walked for nearly two days before finally bypassing the crack.

It was getting dark, so they planned to rest for the night before setting off to the west.

Suddenly, Luohuo and Xuebing began to howl, their backs stretched high.

Zhao Yeqing's heart tightened and he was about to ask what was wrong when he was suddenly blocked by Mu Xi.

Mu Xi's face was more solemn than ever before, and he said quickly, "Quick! Get up the tree!"

Zhao Yeqing knew something must be coming, so she turned around and was about to climb up the tree behind her.

Just as he was about to turn around, he saw a pair of eyes that seemed to be glowing in the grass.

She was not frightened to the point of stopping, but her desire to survive made her eager to climb up!

As soon as she made a move, the gleaming eyes rushed towards her. Mu Xi raised his hand and shot at it.

Zhao Yeqing didn't dare to be distracted to see what was going on. She had only one thought and climbed up. She wanted to hide herself safely and not to overestimate her capabilities and hold her back.

When she climbed up the tree and sat down, she realized that her hands and feet were weak, so she hugged the tree trunk tightly and looked down.

The animal moved very fast just now. Mu Xi's gun missed and it flew to dodge.

Stepping out of the shadows, Zhao Yeqing saw its appearance clearly.

The body is one meter long, with four slender legs. There are black stripes on the yellow-gray fur, and the corners of its mouth are slightly opened to let out a growl, with drool and fangs exposed.

Zhao Yeqing's legs were shaking, it was a striped hyena!

A hyena that can kill a rhinoceros and chew bones as crunchy as potato chips!

The point is that this thing hunts with very dirty methods.

it! Take out the anus!
