With all the ingredients prepared, Wang Junfeng and others got busy.
However, the skill of a few people in killing loaches was not to be praised, so Liu Junhao had no choice but to do it himself and let them go to the woods to get some dry firewood. After picking up the firewood, Liu Junhao also cleaned up the fish. [.]
He got some stones to build the stove and started to light a fire to cook. It¡¯s easy without oil. Just cut off the fat from the bamboo rat and put it in the pot, then add the chopped wild onions.
Liu Junhao¡¯s cooking skills are beyond praise, and soon the tangy aroma spread out.
When the steaming bamboo rat meat comes out of the pot, everyone¡¯s appetite is aroused. Thin slices of meat, sprinkled with pure white slices of wild onion, look mouth-watering. Wang Junfeng took two pieces of freshly shaved bamboo chopsticks and put them in his mouth. The aroma, spicy taste and meaty taste poured into his mouth, and he gasped.
After making bamboo rat meat, Liu Junhao had fried eel. There happened to be a small spring not far upstream, which was crystal clear. A few people got three pots of spring water and started making mushroom and crucian carp soup.
Wild food tastes good. Bamboo rat meat, no matter whether it is fat or lean, will turn into pieces as soon as you chew it. The meat is soft and glutinous, with the unique fragrance of pine and bamboo. It's really a pleasure to put a piece in your mouth
Eating bamboo rat meat and drinking fresh soup, it was a beautiful meal for several people. Of course, the two yellow-spotted skins were not hungry either, as they had eaten all the bones of the three bamboo rats.
After eating and resting for half an hour, they ran towards their first destination in the mountains.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: The fallen leaves become thicker and thicker underground, and countless dead branches and dead trees lie crookedly and stand upright on the ground. Various plants grew rapidly underfoot. Not far away, a grapevine vine as thick as a bowl was coiled on three large trees. It looked to be at least several decades old. Strings of black and purple grapes hung down. Liu Junhao stretched out his hand to pick a bunch. Put the grains in your mouth, it tastes sour and sweet, and tastes very good.
The sunlight above our heads is getting thinner and thinner, and the entire team has been in the shade of trees. In the dense jungle, birds are chirping, streams are gurgling, and the smell of grass, flowers, and earth is mixed and intertwined and permeates the air. It is tranquil and fresh, making people feel relaxed and happy.
This time we went deeper into the mountains than when we visited the Crested Ibis. Even mushroom pickers generally don¡¯t go here. Liu Junhao has lived in Daqingshan for more than 20 years and has rarely gone into the mountains.
This area is considered a virgin forest, and there are no human traces at all. There are many insects, snakes, rats, and ants underfoot, but there are two yellow-spotted skins opening the way in front, so these things are basically scared away.
After walking out of the jungle, several people felt like they were in another world, and they all sat in the grass to rest.
"Wow, there are wild peanuts here." Liu Junhao turned his head inadvertently, and then shouted excitedly, "Come on, try them all, these are authentic wild peanuts." In the early years, there were many wild peanuts in the mountains near Liujiagou. , it¡¯s a pity that it was poached by people. Now there are only some deep in the mountains. It is not easy to see them.
"Wild peanuts, Liu Junhao, you are just an amateur, they must be no different from the peanuts we usually eat." Du Bo said with a smile.
"Nonsense, they are all peanuts, there must be no difference." Liu Junhao said, picking up a nest and shaking the soil on it vigorously. Mountain peanuts are relatively small, and as a result, there are not as many as those grown at home. There are less than twenty peanuts in such a large nest.
"No, I mean there are no wild peanuts in China. These must have been left behind by someone unintentionally and grew up in the mountains." Du Bo explained.
"There are no wild peanuts in China. What do you mean, then the peanuts we grow fall from the sky?" Liu Junhao became more and more confused as he listened.
"Peanuts, also known as groundnuts, are native to South America. They were later introduced to China and slowly developed. So what you have in your hands is not a wild peanut at all." Du Bo knew the origins of peanuts very clearly, mainly since he was in elementary school. The teacher once said that.
"It's impossible," Liu Junhao really didn't understand, but there was a big difference between the mountain peanuts in his hands and those grown by farmers. How could he explain this?
"Lao Du, it does taste different from the peanuts we usually eat. It's a bit bitter and not as crispy as we usually eat." Wang Junfeng took a few to taste.
"Never mind the mountain peanuts, as long as the domestic peanuts are edible." Liu Junhao simply ignored this and picked up several nests in a row, preparing to cook some peanuts for dinner at night.
After marching forward for another half an hour, we arrived at the place directed by Mr. Xiao.
"Let's search the nearby ridges to see if there are any traces of cats hanging their claws, and then set up an infrared trigger camera." After arriving at the destination, Wang Junfeng took a closer look at the surrounding terrain and ordered. Leopards like to walk in forests, bushes, or on trails between ridges and grassy slopes. Once they find prey, they will sneak their heads and bodies close to the ground. When they get close to the prey, they will jump out and bite them.Cut the other person's throat.
He just noticed that there are many traces of ungulates around, indicating that there is abundant food here and is suitable for cats to inhabit and feed.
"Don't be so troublesome. There are yellow spots on the skin. If there is the smell of large beasts nearby, they will definitely sound a warning." Liu Junhao responded. He had also checked the information before coming. The leopard's activity area can reach dozens of square kilometers, and regardless of whether there is prey or whether it has caught prey, they never stay in one place for a long time and will definitely change their location in three to five days. Therefore, it is very difficult for the four of them to find a few hanging claws in such a large area. Even if there are ones nearby, they are easy to ignore. It is better to let Huang Pi hit the front.
"Okay, let's follow Xiaopi." Wang Junfeng thought this was a good idea and nodded in agreement.
The two yellow-spotted leopards turned back and forth on the ridge. There was nothing unusual. It seemed that there should be no leopards here. Even so, an infrared-triggered camera was installed on the tree trunk.
By the time we finish all this, it¡¯s almost five o¡¯clock. The sun sets early in the mountains, and it will be dark in a few hours.
So they didn¡¯t dare to delay, found a spacious place on the ridge, and started to make a fire to cook.
This time Liu Junhao didn¡¯t need to catch fish anymore. Huang Banpi had already caught two hares during his afternoon walk, which was perfect for roasting whole rabbits.
It was very humid and very cold in the mountains at night. Instead of extinguishing the fire for cooking, they added a lot of firewood next to it, preparing to use it for heating at night.
With two yellow-spotted skins here, there is no need to arrange a night watchman. After a long day on the mountain road during the day, Liu Junhao felt sore all over and fell asleep within two minutes of lying in his sleeping bag.
"Puff puff" I only heard two dull noises coming from beside me, and then Huang Pipi screamed wildly.
"What's going on?" "What's wrong?" Several people hurriedly asked each other.
¡°I don¡¯t know either.¡± Liu Junhao turned to look at Xiaopi and found two guys shouting joyfully into the dark night sky.
"It should be night birds such as owls flying by, which alerted them." Wang Junfeng speculated.
"Maybe" Liu Junhao scolded, and Xiaopi immediately stopped his voice.
Seeing that there was nothing unusual, several people fell asleep one after another. He was sleeping soundly when he suddenly heard Xiaopi screaming again.
"What's going on?" Liu Junhao crawled out of his sleeping bag and held the short knife in his hand.
¡°Then the figures in other sleeping bags flashed, and Wang Junfeng and others stood up almost at the same time and asked: ¡°What¡¯s wrong¡±
Not surprisingly, Huang Pipi was still shouting into the air.
"Xiaopi, don't bark." Liu Junhao was a little annoyed now. What's the use of an owl? How could a few people stand up to this after a long day of work?
"Woooo" Sensing the dissatisfaction in his master's words, Xiaopi growled twice and ran back obediently.
But within five minutes, Maculatus began to roar again.
¡°Damn, let¡¯s not let anyone live.¡± After repeated repeated attempts, several people lost their sleepiness and sat upright in their sleeping bags.
"Something's wrong." Liu Junhao instinctively felt that something was a little strange. It was impossible for the owl to continue to hover over their camp.
"What's wrong? Don't be suspicious" Du Bo had just finished speaking when the fire next to him suddenly went out with a "pop".
"Damn, why did the fire go out? The more you do it, the scarier it gets." Wang Junfeng muttered, took out his lighter and lit it on the fire. Little did he know that he didn't even relight the fire several times.
¡°Let me tell you, Lao Wang, you¡¯re not so scared that you can¡¯t even light a fire, are you?¡± Luo Haitao also teased from the side.
"Nowhy is this firewood so wet? Who poured the water on it just now?" Wang Junfeng reached out to touch the firewood and screamed.
"It's impossible that the firewood has been watered." Du Bo extended his hand as he spoke, and then shouted, "Really, Lao Luo, you are planning to pretend to be a ghost and scare people. Why did you put out the firewood?"
"You're just pretending to be a ghost to scare people, it wasn't me." Luo Haitao denied it.
"It's not me," Liu Junhao's voice sounded. He vaguely guessed a possibility, and said with a little excitement: "Don't worry about the firewood on the fire, and get some dry firewood."
Putting dry firewood on the shelf, the flames started again, completely dispelling the darkness within a few feet.
"Let's chat for a while," Wang Junfeng said. Du Bo had been barking for a while, but none of them had any intention of falling asleep.
"Well, I'll give you a vaccination first. Don't be nervous if something strange happens later." Liu Junhao emphasized.
"What do you mean? There can't really be ghosts," Du Bo said with a smile, "How about I tell you a ghost story?Add some atmosphere? "
"Fuck you, what's the point of ghost stories," Luo Haitao refused directly. Before he finished speaking, the sound of "Puff" sounded in the fire again, and the originally strong flames suddenly weakened a lot, followed by Huang Pipi screaming wildly.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" The three people stood up from the ground and looked up at the night sky. The sky was pitch black, and something seemed to be flying into the distance.
"Haha, I told you not to be afraid, I'll see how scared you are." Liu Junhao clapped his hands, which made a few people wake up.
"What on earth was that just now?" Luo Haitao's voice was still trembling. Even though this guy dares to travel across mountains and rivers to find leopards, he still has a deep fear of those mysterious ghost events, mainly due to the sequelae of watching "Liao Zhai" when he was a child.
"The secret must not be leaked. You will know it in two minutes." At this time, Liu Junhao was trying to keep it secret. .
