Chapter 84 The Takin Known as the Killer of the Qinling Mountains (First Order Requested)
Xu Ye found that his understanding of Jiang Ruyue was still shallow, and he had to continue to deepen it.
It's just that it's not convenient to go deep right now. After all, the two of them still have a lot of work to do, and they still need to build this shed.
After burying the pillars, Xu Ye stuck the main beam on.
Because he had made a simple mortise and tenon joint with a hunting knife before, and it was very convenient as long as it was stuck in place and it could be firmly fixed without displacement.
The two of them worked until it was almost dark before the entire framework was completed.
Some arm-thick wooden sticks were laid on top and tied with straw ropes rubbed by Jiang Ruyue.
The last step is just to lay out the thatch sheets.
Zhang Sanbao and the others had already picked up several bundles of thatch, and Jiang Ruyue had already used the thatch to rub a lot of rope.
The next step is to get the thatch pieces.
As darkness approached, Xu Ye cut some leopard meat and roasted it.
Eat more meat so that everyone can have enough nutrition to grow your body and grow more meat.
Especially Jiang Ruyue and Jiang Ruoan, Xu Ye hoped that they would become plump quickly.
That way, you can outline your plump curves when you squat down, how wonderful.
After roasting for a while, the meat was so fragrant that everyone no longer had any intention to work. They all stared at the barbecue and swallowed their saliva.
The hounds were no exception. They all squatted on the side and looked at the barbecue in Xu Ye's hand.
At noon, they ate a lot.
"Okay, let's eat first. After we finish eating, we can make thatch slices in the evening."
Xu Ye didn't take them hunting at night unless some prey came to them.
After Xu Ye said hello, everyone sat around the campfire.
Now the sky has darkened, and the earth is about to be completely invaded by darkness.
"So, are you two scared?" Xu Ye glanced at Zhang Ming and Zhang Xuefeng.
"Don't be afraid. What's there to be afraid of following Brother Ye?" Zhang Ming said very calmly.
"It's quite interesting. I have never spent a night in the mountains before." Zhang Xuefeng said with a smile, looking relaxed.
"Brother Ye, will any wild beasts come to your door at night?" Zhang Ming asked curiously.
Xu Ye took a bite of a piece of leopard meat and chewed it a few times before saying, "I hope there are such wise beasts to save us the trouble."
"Haha, that would be great." Zhang Xuefeng couldn't help laughing.
But he knew that there probably weren't such wise beasts.
Really, he and his father wouldn't often come back empty-handed when they went into the mountains.
After a hearty meal, they started putting up pieces of thatch without stopping.
There was no rush to lay the roof, because the sky was filled with stars and not even a cloud, so it would definitely not rain.
But thatch is needed around the shed to keep out the wind. The mountain wind is biting. If you don’t surround the shed, it will be very cold even if you light a fire.
While tying thatch slices, smoke the meat.
If it is not smoked, the meat will start to spoil.
In order to smoke the meat, they also built a rack, and then cut the meat into strips and hung them on the rack.
The more people there are, the better and the higher the efficiency.
By ten o'clock at night, the entire shack was surrounded by pieces of thatch.
There is a fire pit in the middle of the hut, where you can burn some charcoal fire to keep warm at night.
Otherwise, it would be too cold at night in the mountains and people would wake up from the cold.
The main reason today is that time is limited, otherwise Xu Ye would have planned to make a few beds out of wood.
The ground is wet, and even if you lay your raincoat on the ground first and then dry thatch, it will still be cold.
The hounds are lying outside the shed, and they will alert you immediately if something happens.
Jiang Ruyue was lying in the corner, with Xu Ye outside.
In order to avoid suspicion, Zhang Sanbao and the others lay on the other side of the other fire pit.
Everyone was so tired that they fell asleep quickly after lying down.
We still need to find prey tomorrow, so we must ensure adequate sleep. When Xu Ye woke up early the next morning, Jiang Ruyue was already up and continuing to smoke meat.
They stopped smoking when they went to bed last night, because if they continued to smoke, the smoke would drift into the shack, making it impossible for everyone to sleep.
The three brothers of the Zhang family slept soundly and were still in sweet dreams.
Fortunately, no one snored last night, maybe because everyone is relatively thin.
Relatively speaking, obese people are more likely to snore because their airways are narrowed by flesh.
"Come and drink some hot tea. I made some tea." Jiang Ruyue handed Xu Ye her kettle.
There is a tea garden in the village, and every year the villagers can get some unsold crude tea.
Jiang Ruyue specially brought some with her when she went into the mountains this time.
Xu Ye took it and took a few sips, then walked towards the col.
It will be slightly bright now, which is when animals are active. Maybe some animals will come to the col to drink water.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
When he walked to the place where he could see the water source of the mountain col, Xu Ye couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
An animal really came to drink water, and it was an animal that Xu Ye had never seen before.
Takin!
Xu Ye knew that there was such an animal in the Qinling Mountains, but he didn't expect that he would encounter it here.
It also has a nickname, Qinling Murderer!
He turned back immediately and woke up Zhang Sanbao and the others.
Then, he got Hanyang Made.
Zhang Sanbao and the others immediately became excited when they heard that there was prey.
He quickly picked up the gun and followed Xu Ye.
Xu Ye found a place to lie down and began to aim at the takin in the distance.
The distance was still very far, and if they walked towards the mountain col, the takin would definitely spot them.
This herbivore has a strong sense of smell and hearing, and is particularly alert.
Otherwise, it would have been eaten by predators.
Zhang Sanbao placed his hope on Xu Ye. As long as Xu Ye could shoot, they could track the takin.
This is also the purpose of Xu Ye calling them here. After all, the range of the trolls is limited and it is impossible to hit the takin more than a hundred meters away.
Therefore, Zhang Sanbao is now even more eager for Xu Ye to buy a new gun.
When Xu Ye got a new gun, he could eliminate the Hanyang gun he had, and he could buy it and use it for another year and a half.
This time he brought Zhang Ming and Zhang Xuefeng with him, and he actually had some ideas of his own.
He felt that it was impossible for Xu Ye to go into the mountains every day. When Xu Ye did not go into the mountains, he could take Zhang Ming and Zhang Xuefeng into the mountains to try their luck.
Xu Ye was quite willing to teach him. He felt that after learning from Xu Ye for a while, his marksmanship should be improved a lot.
So, he stared at Xu Ye and paid attention to Xu Ye's every move.
He didn't have the confidence to hit such a long distance, but Xu Ye definitely did.
Xu Ye adjusted his breathing, and then put his finger on the trigger.
"Bang!"
A tongue of flame spurted out from the muzzle, pushing the bullet towards the takin on the opposite side at high speed.
The gunfire echoed rapidly in the valley, startling many birds for a while.
Xu Ye's eyes were still fixed on the takin. If they hit it, they could go down the mountain today.
After all, a takin is not small. It is impossible to smoke so much meat in the mountains and make it into bacon. Not to mention the huge amount of work, the income will also shrink.
Bacon is not as easy to sell as fresh meat, nor is it as profitable as fresh meat.
"Did you hit it?" Jiang Ruyue asked quickly after hearing the gunshot, ready to untie the leopard at any time.
