Ye Zi nodded, with an expression that said, "You know what I mean."

The yellow whale raised an eyebrow, indicating that you understand me very well.

After determining the division of labor, Ye Zi quickly finished her food and left with her axe, machete, and bow and arrows.

Leave the pickaxe for Yellow Whale; he'll need it when searching for rocks. Besides, Yellow Whale has a melee knife, so protecting himself shouldn't be a problem.

If all else fails, you can always go back inside and hide. The shelter that was built with so much effort has reached the highest level of defense currently achievable.

After Ye Zi left, the yellow whale said to the drone:

"Look, this is the benefit of having great teammates: private space, heated kang bed, fur for warmth, and meat at every meal."

Given these conditions, no one would believe that they can't win.

I just want to ask, who else is there?

After finishing his sentence, Huang Jingyu happily went to collect materials and started his work. He didn't care about the reaction in the live stream room; he mainly didn't know what the reaction would be.

The most loyal viewer in the No. 3 live stream room was, of course, Er Ya. She had already figured out when Ye Zi and the other person got up to work.

The alarms were set at the same time, just to quickly familiarize themselves with Ye Zi and the other person's habits, and at the same time to keep track of the team's situation.

She heard what the yellow whale said, smiled, and murmured:

"That's really great, but the fur is still a bit lacking. You guys need to work harder."

Then I started my day of studying. Although it was last-minute cramming, there's a saying: "Even last-minute sharpening can be effective."

Even a little bit is good to remember, just in case you need it.

There weren't many viewers in the live stream because it was so early, so very few people were interacting.

On Ye Zi's side, based on the prey detected by the system, an arrow was already nocked on the bowstring the moment she left the camp. It was a homemade wolf fang arrow.

After gradually approaching its prey, it slowly drew its bow to a full moon shape and then shot an arrow.

The other three wolf-tooth arrows, held between his fingers, shot towards the pheasant thirty meters away within three seconds.

Four pheasants were pinned to the ground. By the time Ye Zi had nocked the fifth arrow, the surviving pheasants had already scattered and fled.

Not long after they came out, they had their food for the day. Ye Zi grinned, then went forward to put away the arrows and used a knife to quickly prepare the pheasant.

It's basically just cutting open the stomach and throwing away the inedible internal organs.

Tie four pheasants to your waist with the leather rope you carry with you, and then start searching nearby.

Generally speaking, there are definitely eggs near a flock of pheasants.

In wilderness survival, no clue that leads to food can be overlooked, and any food must be brought back to camp.

Moreover, eggs are easy to store and can be used as an emergency reserve.

Soon, Ye Zi made a discovery in a bush. Just as she had guessed, there must be a nest near the flock of chickens, and there were two eggs in the nest.

The harvest didn't stop there, because there was more than one henhouse, but the number of eggs in each henhouse was different.

Even though the number of eggs in each henhouse was different, Yezi still harvested thirteen eggs because there were many henhouses.

There can be a maximum of three eggs in a nest, and a minimum of no eggs in a nest.

Just as Ye Zi was happily collecting eggs, the system spoke up:

"Host, a small wild animal is approaching."

Ye Zi immediately drew his bow and arrow, pointing in the direction given by the system in his mind.

The system also said that small wild animals can be dealt with by bows and arrows.

But when Ye Zi saw the so-called small beast clearly, she frowned. It wasn't that the beast was larger than expected, but rather that it looked rather ferocious.

Porcupines are covered in sharp quills all over their bodies, which looks quite scary.

However, this thing is edible.

The porcupine that had just left the station was probably seeing humans for the first time, and it was clearly taken aback when it saw the leaves.

Because the leaf was standing there with its bow drawn and arrow nocked, the porcupine assumed the leaf couldn't move and didn't run away.

Ye Zi felt that porcupines still had some value; at least they were edible. Although the quills were useless, they still had a layer of skin, which could be used to weave a leather rope.

So, after hesitating for a moment, Ye Zi adjusted the angle slightly and loosened her fingers from the bowstring.

The spiked arrow pierced the porcupine's head like lightning, and the porcupine convulsed and collapsed to the ground.

Ye Zi breathed a sigh of relief. He recognized what this thing was. It was about 70 or 80 centimeters long and covered in sharp quills. This was a porcupine. He couldn't be wrong.

But Ye Zi didn't know if the porcupine's quills could shoot out; if they did, it would be unpleasant.

Although his body had been tempered and could withstand wolf claw attacks, he was unsure of the penetrating power of the porcupine's spikes.

Therefore, the best attack point is the head. No matter what kind of animal it is, if its brain is hit, all other methods are useless.

What Ye Zi didn't know was that these porcupines living in the Alashan region don't shoot out their quills; they're mainly for defense. They only fall off when you touch them, and that's when you get hurt.

After waiting a while and the porcupine stopped convulsing, Ye Zi casually picked up a stick and whipped the porcupine's back a few times.

After confirming that the spikes showed no signs of firing, he threw away the stick and walked over.

Step on the quills with your feet and grab the porcupine's limbs with both hands to lift it up.

This method can be used to remove the quills from a porcupine, as the quills make it inconvenient to carry a porcupine.

After spending some time removing the quills from the porcupine, Ye Zi reached out and touched the porcupine's back. When she didn't feel any hard quills, she began to clean the porcupine's carcass.

The process still involves gutting the porcupine, mainly to check its internal organs. If there are any diseases in the internal organs, then the porcupine will not be taken away except for its skin.

Fortunately, no lesions were found on the porcupine's internal organs. After weighing it, it was estimated that after removing the internal organs, the porcupine still weighed about 20 kilograms. After removing the head and hooves, it should still weigh nearly 20 kilograms, enough for two days' worth of food.

Finally, there were the thorns that had been pulled out. Ye Zi picked up a thorn that looked rather thick and hard and examined it closely.

I must say, it is indeed quite hard, and the tip has barbs. If it gets stuck in your hand, you absolutely cannot pull it out casually, otherwise it will bleed and hurt a lot.

Driven by curiosity, Ye Zi tested the hardness and sharpness of the thorns with her fingers.

The body tempered by the Thousand-Jun Pill was indeed formidable; the spikes did not pierce the skin.

With a slight increase in force, the spikes began to curve, but they still didn't force the skin.

Ye Zi breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed she wouldn't have to be so careful around porcupines anymore.

Looking up at the spikes on the ground, Ye Zi thought to herself, "To be honest, these things aren't very useful. Besides decoration, they're probably useless. At least, I can't think of anything else these spikes could do right now."

However, he still collected some, just in case they might come in handy.

Putting away the spikes, I looked at my haul: four pheasants, thirteen eggs, and over ten kilograms of porcupine meat. This hunting trip had been a perfect success.
