Gradually approaching the location of the mud pit, Wen Zheng became more and more cautious.The sun has risen, showing its presence with fierce sunlight. Wild boars hide in shady places during the day, and Wen Zheng is worried that a wild boar will suddenly appear from somewhere in the forest.

Wen Zheng checked the first two traps smoothly, but as he expected, the first two traps failed to catch the wild boar.Not only that, the two traps were all destroyed.

There were fresh footprints near these two traps. Wen Zheng sighed and squatted down to examine them carefully.The one that stands out among the group of footprints is the footprint of the largest male wild boar, which should have destroyed the trap.

The male wild boar was huge, and Wen Zheng had to be careful every time he came near the mud pit. He didn't even have the confidence to be able to retreat from the boar leader alone.

After recovering the ropes of these destroyed traps, Wen Zheng walked towards the third trap while considering whether to change the trap to catch wild boars.

In consideration of the possibility of the traps being destroyed, none of the three traps were placed on the road where wild boars often pass by, and the third trap was placed in a place with relatively dense trees, where small wild boars can reach, but large wild boars can get through. do not go in.

However, this trap site also has a serious problem. Looking at the footprints in the ground, the little wild boars rarely go to that place.

At that time, Wen Zheng searched around for a long time before he managed to find this suitable place, because there were footprints of several small wild boars on the ground inside, although the traces may have been left a long time ago.

Wen Zheng walked over according to the impression without interest, and Wen Zheng still had the mind to look at the surrounding plants. A shrub with a bird in the distance attracted his attention.

It was a low shrub growing in the forest, with many small spikes growing on its branches.From the first time he entered the mountain forest to the present, Wen Zheng has witnessed the process of this shrub from blooming with light yellow flowers, to bearing green fruits, and then the fruits gradually turning red.

When it bloomed, it attracted many bees to collect honey. When it bears green fruit, no animals care about it. Now that the fruit has turned red, it attracts a few birds to peck at it.

Fruits that can be eaten by birds are often non-toxic and harmless, and can be eaten by humans. This is how Wen Zheng discovered sour fruits.

Compared with the wild boar, which is not likely to be caught, this edible berry is obviously more attractive. Wen Zheng turned around and walked towards that place.

The movement of pushing the bushes away with hands was not small, and the birds were startled and flew away several meters away.But Tuantuan hurriedly flew out of the bamboo basket. His hard beak was not afraid of those small spikes, and he could peck a red fruit with just one peck.

Wen Zheng didn't want the red fruit that Tuantuan picked up, and let Tuantuan eat it by himself.He didn't want to challenge the sharpness of those thorns with his fingers, but took out a thin wooden stick and a bamboo tube from the bamboo basket, touched the wooden stick lightly, and the red fruit fell into the bamboo tube.

He poured one into the palm of his hand, rubbed it casually, and threw it into his mouth. As soon as Wen Zheng's teeth were tightened, the juice of the red berry broke through the thin skin and burst into his mouth.

The tongue conveyed the taste of the berries to his mind, Wen Zheng couldn't believe it, and picked three more red fruits to taste together, and now he was completely sure.The taste of red berries is sweet, somewhat like that of blueberries.

It's been a long time since I ate such a sweet fruit, and Wen Zheng wanted to eat a few more.However, the few red fruits have been eaten, leaving only the green fruits that have not turned red on this bush.

Instead of coming here to pick them hard, it's better to dig out two trees, take them back and plant them outside the cave.Not only can it be picked at any time after it matures, but it can also be used as an ornament, adding a kind of color to the outside of the cave.

Wen Zheng had the idea of ​​taking the sour fruit bushes back to plant in the past. As a result, the roots of the sour fruit shrubs growing in patches were all connected together underground. If dug out, the roots would be damaged and the plant would not survive, so Wen Zheng gave up. thought.

This time, the sweet-fruited bushes did not gather together, so Wen Zheng picked up the branches and started digging.The soil here is very soft, and Wen Zheng easily dug a half-meter-deep pit, and most of the roots of the low shrubs were dug out.

After painstakingly digging out two bushes with sweet fruits, Wen Zheng pulled them and was about to go home, when he suddenly patted his head, leaving a mud mark on his forehead, he remembered that he hadn't seen the last trap yet.

He came here, of course he had to take a look, and walked two steps across the lush bushes, but the sight of those trees could not block his sight, Wen Zheng stopped in his footsteps.

Surprise and joy welled up in my heart at the same time, overwhelmed the disappointment of the trap, and the third trap actually paid off.

On the tree tied with a rope, there was a little wild boar hanging on it, its four legs were swinging weakly in the air, and after smelling the smell of Wen Zheng, it began to make a low moaning sound from its mouth.

The body length of this wild boar is less than half a meter, and it is still a young wild boar.Wen Zheng let it down from the tree, and saw that the wild boar cub didn't attack him at all, but just lay down on the ground, with its mouth constantly arching.

How long have you been hungry!

Apparently this wild boar cub had just fallen into a trap, it was exhausted from hunger, and it had been hanging on a tree for a few days.

This also made it easier for Wen Zheng to tie up the wild boar cub with a rope and block the wild boar's mouth so that it could not eat to restore its strength.

During the six days of surviving on the deserted island, Wen Zheng captured a living wild boar cub. After starting the big business of planting, he started the big business of breeding.

Use several ropes to tie the wild boar firmly to the stone outside the cave.As soon as its mouth was released, the wild boar cub began to burrow into the ground, eating weeds, grass seeds and insects on the ground.

Wen Zheng ignored the wild boar, and after sitting and resting for a while, he began to plant the two bushes he brought back.

When resting yesterday, Wen Zheng wove a few bamboo baskets, spread the bottom with wide banana leaves, filled them with fertile soil from the mountain forest, mixed them with plant ash, and planted shrubs in them.

After planting, Wen Zheng patted the soil on his hands, and turned to look at the little wild boar. The hungry little wild boar arched all the ground it could touch, and its efficiency was comparable to that of an excavator.

Wen Zheng's eyes lit up, and he suddenly wondered if he could use this wild boar to ease his workload.

Now that you think of it, try it, Wen Zheng found the thickest branch from the pile of wood outside the cave, thicker than his arm.He dragged the stick into the middle of the field, hammered the log into the ground with stones, and moved the piglet here and tied it, this time with a long rope.

The plants in the farmland were all burned clean, Wen Zheng cut some fresh weeds and put them on the ground relatively close to watch the wild boar's performance.

The wild boar made a snorting sound, and when eating the weeds on the ground, it really arched the surrounding ground by the way!

Wen Zheng looked at wild boars with exceptional enthusiasm. He could not only work as a coolie to farm the fields, but also slaughter and eat them. Why didn't he think of it before.

After discovering a new method of farming, Wen Zheng watched the movements of the wild boar with a smile all over his face. Not to mention, the wild boar looks much cuter this way.

Seeing that the newly planted weeds were about to be eaten up again, Wen Zheng went to mow the grass again with a bamboo knife, thinking about other wild boars in his head.

This day the little wild boar lived a hard-working life and was tied up every day. In order to eat food into his mouth, he worked hard to dig the ground.

Wen Zheng was also afraid of exhausting his labor. In addition to all kinds of grass, he would also sprinkle some dried plantains, clam meat, etc. on the ground, which were more liked by omnivores like wild boars than grass.

However, not all wild boars have tusks. Even if there are species with tusks, the ones with long tusks are male wild boars, while female wild boars have shorter teeth, usually wrapped in lips.

Wen Zheng caught the wild boar cub, which should be a female wild boar, and she used her mouth to dig the ground, and it didn't turn too deep.If the wild boar leader can be caught, the effect of turning the ground should be even better.

After confirming that the wild boar cub could not break free from the rope, Wen Zheng went to the mountains and forests to set traps for the next few days. At the spot where the wild boar was caught the first day, he also put some sweet fruit and plantain slices as bait.

Three days later, Wen Zheng caught the second wild boar, the first female wild boar cub.It seemed that the wild boar cubs were missing. Wen Zheng hid in the distance and observed that the big wild boars became more cautious. The remaining wild boars were obedient and never left the team, and there was nothing to gain in the next few days.

The two wild boar cubs dug the ground a few times first, and Wen Zheng then used the wooden plow to plow deeply. The work suddenly became much easier.

It took a total of five days to reclaim both wastelands.Wen Zheng stood by the field and picked up a piece of soil with his hands. There were no big clods on the ground.And those small clods of soil turned into powder when they were lightly pinched with hands, leaking through the gaps between fingers.

Wen Zheng took out all the seeds from the drifting bottle, and put two different kinds of seeds in two bamboo tubes.

Some time ago, Wen Zheng tried soaking in water. He took out ten seeds of each kind for experiments, and finally all twenty seeds germinated successfully.Of course, Wen Zheng didn't throw away the twenty seeds. He just dug a few holes outside the cave and sprinkled the seeds.

Several days had passed since the seeds were sown, and Wen Zheng found some young sprouts in the field where the seeds had been sprinkled, whether it was the sprouts of crops or the sprouts of weeds.

Wen Zheng would rather believe that those crops grew successfully, which would give him more confidence.

Among the two types of seeds, barley can be sown directly on dry land. As for rice, it is usually rice that needs to be planted in paddy fields, but there are also upland rice that can be planted in dry land.

Wen Zheng was worried at first, what to do if there is no fresh water to grow rice, and sea water cannot be used for irrigation.When he saw the seedlings growing from the experimental seeds, he finally stopped worrying and decided to plant them in dry land.

Although I really want to harvest these seeds, it is a bit too difficult to create a paddy field filled with fresh water on a deserted island with plenty of sunlight.

Sprinkle the seeds in the plowed farmland, and gently cover the loose soil next to the seeds with a hoe.After sprinkling these two farmlands all over, Wen Zheng still had a lot of seeds left in his hand.He was going to keep it and see how the crops grew.

After the two farmlands were all sown, Wen Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the planting business came to an end.

He scanned the bare fields with hopeful eyes, and it seemed that the scene of a good harvest in a few months had already appeared in front of his eyes.

No. 60 of Survival on a Deserted Island in three days, Wen Zheng owned two farmlands, one was planted with barley and the other with rice.
