After a while, a huge snow leopard emerged from the grass.
It was panting heavily, sniffing around, and finally found the spot where the ibex had fallen.
Before it could even feel joy, the snow leopard froze, staring at the argali sheep that was reduced to just a leg and its internal organs.
"Meow?"
It shook its big, furry head and looked over again. On the sandy ground, there were still the same things.
The argali it hunted... it's gone, no, that one...
"Meow?"
Somewhat incredulous, it bowed its head and arched its back, then looked up at the cliff face.
this……
In its mind, it had never encountered anything so strange before. No matter how high the mountain sheep had been, it had never fallen like this.
How could his internal organs have come out?
It was completely bewildered for a while, and still couldn't figure it out.
Shaking its furry head, the snow leopard stopped thinking and walked to its entrails, ready to start eating.
"Meow?"
Looking at the small teeth marks on the sheep's heart, it was bewildered again.
This time it was certain that something had stolen its prey!
"Awoo!"
The snow leopard raised its head and roared angrily.
Looking at the sheep's heart with teeth marks, it hesitated for a moment, then disgustedly pushed it aside and started eating other things.
...
In the distant valley.
Lu Fangfang and Zhuang Mingcheng remained on guard for a while.
To be honest, the two of them felt a little guilty, after all, they had been thieves.
After a while, seeing that the snow leopard hadn't chased after them, the two of them felt relieved and began to cut the mutton.
"Mingcheng, cut off a tender piece first, I'll cook it."
Looking at the argali meat, Lu Fangfang's mouth was practically watering.
Last night, she only ate a few roasted potatoes, which were completely devoid of oil, and she's starving now.
"When we get back, we can skin the sheep and make a sheepskin jacket. That way, you'll be warmer in winter."
Lu Fangfang nodded quickly, silently thanking the snow leopard in her heart.
She finds wolf skin disgusting, but she's fine with sheep skin.
She took the mutton from Zhuang Mingcheng, washed it in the stream, and then put it in a pot to stew.
In the middle of summer, with lots of rain, many mushrooms have grown in the mountains and forests.
She went into the woods and picked up some familiar plants, washed them, and put them in the pot to stew with the mutton.
"Meow~"
"Awoo~"
Little Flower and Little Tibetan Fox exclaimed as they looked at the large chunks of argali meat.
"Xiaohua, you can't be so impulsive in the future."
While educating Xiaohua, Zhuang Mingcheng cut off two pieces and threw them to the two little ones.
He found a long stone slab in the river, washed it, and carried it over to the fire.
He cut off a piece of fatty lamb chop with his dagger, placed it on the stone slab, and slowly started grilling it.
"Sizzle~"
Soon, the aroma of mutton wafted into their noses.
Zhuang Mingcheng pinched the fine salt he had brought and sprinkled it evenly on the surface.
He cut the lamb chop with a dagger, picked up a piece with a fork, and handed it to his wife.
"Hmm..."
Lu Fangfang blew on it, took a small bite, and was instantly won over.
"Delicious, delicious."
This rock goat meat is tender and fragrant, much tastier than regular goat meat, but it has a strong gamey smell.
"Huh? Zhuang Mingcheng, what are you holding?"
Lu Fangfang stared blankly at the two small red entrails in her man's hand.
Well, she didn't even see when Zhuang Mingcheng cut it off.
"Kidneys, the kidneys of the Himalayan blue sheep."
There was also mutton fat on the bluestone slab.
Zhuang Mingcheng took a dagger, cut the rock sheep kidneys in half, and then put them on the stone slab to fry.
"Sizzle~"
A fragrance different from mutton rose up.
Lu Fangfang's eyes lit up, and she quickly went over.
What are you doing?
Zhuang Mingcheng looked at his wife in surprise.
"Let's eat rock goat kidneys. Don't try to eat them all by yourself. Let's each have one."
Zhuang Mingcheng: "..."
He was conflicted, but looking into his wife's eyes, he sighed and resigned himself to his fate.
He carefully turned the kidneys on the stone slab over, and when they turned a bit golden brown, he sprinkled some salt on them.
After hesitating for a moment, he gave the two smaller ones to his wife.
Lu Fangfang suppressed a laugh, but she didn't stand on ceremony and picked up some chopsticks made of twigs.
The argali kidneys had a slightly gamey smell, so she blew on them and stuffed the whole thing into her mouth.
"Hmm..."
She took a big bite, and the oil from the argali kidney instantly filled her mouth.
Since arriving in this era, she has never felt that anything she eats is greasy. Even with her mouth full of oil, she finds it very fragrant and satisfying.
"No wonder Little Flower and Little Tibetan Fox love to eat offal so much, it's so oily."
She took a few bites and swallowed, then quickly picked up another piece.
Seeing this, Zhuang Mingcheng dared not chew his food slowly either.
He quickly swallowed it and picked up the remaining piece.
After finishing the lamb kidneys, the lamb in the small aluminum pot was also cooked.
The two of them took small enamel basins and quickly drank some mushroom and mutton soup.
The broth tasted quite different from the roasted lamb chops and kidneys. With the mushrooms, the broth was incredibly delicious, and the two of them forgot all about eating the meat.
Beside her, Little Flower licked her paws and looked at the remaining ibex with bright eyes.
It was also its first time eating argali meat, and it instantly fell in love with it.
"Little Flower, you'd better be careful if you ever try to catch a ibex in the future."
Lu Fangfang looked at Xiaohua and was still a little worried.
She had witnessed the entire chase of the snow leopard and the argali sheep; it was incredibly dangerous. One wrong step and it would have been an abyss.
"Don't worry, Xiaohua is so smart and intelligent, she'll definitely be a good hunter in the future."
Upon hearing Zhuang Mingcheng's words, Xiaohua raised her head proudly and meowed, "Meow~"
Um……
Lu Fangfang smiled and shook her head.
The bigger the flower grows, the more... well, the more it sounds like a cat's meow; it's really not intimidating at all.
"Little Flower, come here."
"Meow~"
Lu Fangfang stroked its head, then scooped up a piece of mutton, blew on it, and gave it to the animal.
"Awoo~"
The little Tibetan fox saw this and, without her even calling it, immediately came running over.
Lu Fangfang glanced at it, then pretended not to see it.
"Awooo~"
The little Tibetan fox was not happy about this and stretched out its head to nuzzle against Lu Fangfang.
"Oh, okay, okay, here you go."
Lu Fangfang picked up a piece and, smiling, gave it to the little Tibetan fox.
After finishing their meal, the two continued panning for gold.
After eating mutton and lamb kidneys, she and Zhuang Mingcheng worked exceptionally fast.
Since they had stolen the snow leopard's meat, both of them had something to hide and were afraid that the thief would come looking for them. They wanted to finish the meat quickly and leave the place as soon as possible.
