Chapter 80 Chapter 80
Since it was broad daylight, Ye Yu did not use her ability of space teleportation, but climbed up step by step, which was not a big deal for her.
The sparrow, accustomed to hitchhiking, seemed puzzled. He tilted his head, his eyes wide with confusion for a moment, then hopped twice on her shoulder, chirping, "Chirp, chirp."
"grain reserves."
Ye Yu called out.
The sparrows immediately quieted down, clinging to Ye Yu's shoulders or flying close to her.
Hua Feifei and the others praised Pu Liliang for being smart. But in fact, due to its small size, the sparrow's brain capacity is limited, and it can only remember a few fixed commands and habits over and over again.
It is even gradually becoming worse than Chicken No. 1, although mocking Chicken No. 1 is also one of the habits.
It is so stupid that it is a little mentally retarded, but because it has been trained and educated, it doesn't have too many tricks. It is easy to pet and raise, so it has been a pet ever since.
Whoosh——
A snake with dry yellow horizontal stripes had been lying in ambush for a long time. Suddenly, it jumped out from the branch on the right, opened its mouth wide, showing its sharp teeth, and almost took away all the stored food.
Ye Yu was quick-witted and snapped the snake's neck, hitting the snake at its most vulnerable part. But in fact, a faster and more limited lethal method than the vital part is to break the neck, but this requires more skill, otherwise there is a high chance of being bitten.
This is a King Elaphe, commonly known as the Rape Snake. It is non-venomous and large in size. It feeds on birds, rodents, and snakes. It has a violent and ferocious temperament and will actively attack people. It is so violent that even after its head and body are separated, the snake's head flies into the grass and still makes a muffled sound like the vibration of a motorcycle engine.
Ye Yu put the snake body into the storage space.
This was not the first snake she had encountered on the road. With the arrival of spring, all things came back to life, and snakes also woke up from hibernation. Some snakes that had been hungry for most of the winter would attack people regardless of their size.
The King Elaphe, which is aggressive but non-venomous, is okay. The Cobra is poisonous and makes a lot of noise, but the highly poisonous Five-Step Snake, Bungarus regulus, and Pit Viper, which are sinister and poisonous, are hard to guard against. Quite a few lives are taken by them every year.
Although Ye Yu felt that with his third-level supernatural power of self-healing, he would not be easily killed by poisonous snakes, he did not want to be bitten by them. No matter whether it was a coagulant toxin or a neurotoxin, the process of resistance would still be uncomfortable.
So he stopped and piled up his equipment a little thicker.
Especially the feet, put on a pair of black waterproof boots. The boots are from this era and can provide protection as long as they are not bitten through and injected with venom.
move on.
All the snakes encountered, whether poisonous or not, as long as they are not pregnant and are not young snakes, have become the real reserve food in the space. They are delicious when grilled and made into snake soup. They are more elastic and delicate than eels, and lack the freshness but less earthy smell.
Ye Yu encountered not only snakes, but also other animals, which was no less than what she got from setting traps. But what surprised her most were the green things that broke out of the ground in spring.
This is not Fan Si.
We are still in an era of food and clothing shortages, and people basically eat seasonal fruits and vegetables. The vegetables in winter are always the same. Nowadays, Ye Yu has no shortage of meat, but lacks vegetables. He feels happy when he sees green.
What's more, there are a wide variety of wild vegetables in the mountains.
Many common wild flowers and weeds such as shepherd's purse, purslane, bracken, amaranth, dandelion, gray vegetable, bitter linseed, water celery, etc. can be eaten.
Probably no one doesn't like to eat shepherd's purse dumplings, shepherd's purse wontons, and shepherd's purse porridge. They are fresh and delicious. Even if some wild vegetables are not suitable for making dumplings, you can rinse them with cold water and stir-fry or eat them cold. They are delicious and nutritious.
There is actually wild toon, which has a unique fresh fragrance. People who like this taste will love it, but those who don’t like it will find it a bit strange.
There is also wild garlic, also known as garlic chives, which is delicious when mixed with tofu, fried bacon, or scrambled eggs, as well as wild ginger, which are all pure natural and pollution-free seasonings that fell from the sky.
In fact, Ye Yu doesn’t know all the wild vegetables, and the current plant atlas is very different from that of the end of the world.
But she was prepared.
She doesn't understand, but the villagers do. Which village kid didn't grow up digging wild vegetables?
"Bamboo forest in the west mountain and mushrooms in the east mountain", the wild vegetables in the east mountain have also sprung up. The women, the elderly and the children in the village have started to dig wild vegetables in the east mountain. Ye Yu has accompanied them several times. With their help, he has recognized more and more wild vegetables.
But Ye Yu basically would not pick or dig wild vegetables in Dongshan, mainly because she had a big appetite. If she dug in Dongshan, the amount dug by others would definitely be reduced.
God knows how much self-control Ye Yu must have exerted to leave a mountain of wild vegetables to the villagers of Wangjiagou. If he had just been reborn, this would have been almost impossible.
The villagers were unaware of Ye Yu's difficult psychological journey and had a better impression of her. They also said that when it got warmer, they would teach her how to identify a variety of edible mushrooms.
This is a good feeling!
Ye Yu didn't have so many concerns in Xishan, even though there were a few families living there. But if she were to be concerned about everything, she wouldn't be the type of person she is.
Whenever she saw wild vegetables, she would basically not let them go. She climbed up almost like a bulldozer. She had never climbed a mountain so slowly before.
Ye Yu has a storage space. Time in the storage space tends to be infinitely still, and it is a vacuum environment, so the things cannot be damaged at all. Naturally, the feathers of the geese pass by and the skins of the beasts remain.
In addition to wild vegetables, there are also wild fruits, but the wild fruits now are only prickly ash, wood sorrel, thatch root, raspberry, etc. There is no problem in classifying them as wild vegetables. The only difference is whether they can be eaten raw and whether they taste good.
There are some wild fruits that look more like fruits, such as the lantern fruit, jujube, mulberry, mulberry, pyracantha, etc. They are a bit sour now, so it is better to take notes and wait until they are more mature.
Ye Yu knew that he had a strong memory, but there were too many wild fruits in the mountains. To be on the safe side, in addition to drawing a map in his mind, he also took out a notebook and scribbled on it.
Seriously, it's so funny that if you don't know, you might think it's some kind of geographical research.
If Hua Feifei and the other two saw this, they would probably be scared to death. Ye Yu actually took notes one day.
For food?
No wonder.
It was two and a half hours later when Ye Yu reached the top of Nanshan Mountain. In order to conceal his special abilities, the backpack behind him was full, with some prey hanging on the side.
The forest ranger, Mr. Wang, who had been sitting on the top of the mountain waiting for who knows how long, knew that her gains were definitely more than that. He could basically guess that Ye Yu had some strange abilities that people couldn't figure out at all, and that might involve more subtle metaphysics.
There was no way. Ye Yu was too ruthless in hunting prey at Nanshan. As a forest ranger, Mr. Wang couldn't help but pay attention. But asking her to give up hunting at Nanshan was even more impossible. As long as she didn't see it with her own eyes, she would never admit it.
Mr. Wang had no intention of exposing it.
Ye Yu's appetite is indeed huge, but animals will reproduce and wild vegetables will grow again, and Nanshan will not be unable to support her alone. As long as she does not destroy the species and roots and follows the principles of hunting, he will turn a blind eye.
"Grandpa is roasting sweet potatoes, give me one!" Ye Yu came over with a smile. More than two hours had passed since lunch, and there was still a little space left in his stomach.
"Go, go, go." Old Master Wang glared at her unhappily. Was this girl Zhou Baopi in her previous life?
Although I disliked it, I still gave her two of them, one was the sweet potato, and the other was the taro.
As they were hungry, Ye Yu also offered two chickens and gave Mr. Wang two chicken legs.
Old Master Wang has never lacked greasy food in his life, and he does not have the same obsession with meat as other people in the village. He ate two chicken legs, but was mainly amused by Ye Yu's reluctant look, so he said he wanted more.
"..." Ye Yu sighed, "You are old now, take it easy and don't overeat."
Mr. Wang was just like any other old man. The older he got, the more he refused to admit his age. Upon hearing this, he immediately blew his beard and glared: "What do you mean by 'suffocating'? This little bit is not enough for an old man like me to fill his teeth."
Ye Yu:
"Go on, blow."
Since the old man ate half of her chicken, she also helped him out by giving him some roasted sweet potatoes, corn, etc., which was a one-for-one exchange.
"belch."
A little full.
Mr. Wang:
"...You should not upset your stomach."
"No, no," Ye Yu replied, stroking his swollen belly. He thought, "Even if it gets bloated, it will heal itself. Isn't that what superpowers are used for?" The future apocalyptic superpower would definitely agree.
There was no need to bury the bones left after eating the chicken. Old Man Wang blew a whistle, and five brown-red dogs ran out from the east, south, west and north of the forest.
This is the hunting dog raised by Mr. Wang. It is different from the big yellow dog that guards the villagers at the foot of the mountain. Although it is of medium size, its limbs are strong and powerful, especially the muscles of the hind limbs. The smooth lines when it runs are so handsome.
The way hunting dogs are raised is also different from that of the domestic dogs at the foot of the mountain. Half of the time they are free-range. Ye Yu has met them more than once in Nanshan, and they are creatures that have witnessed her use various spatial abilities.
The five hounds are also very obedient.
Even though they were drooling with greed, they did not fight for the bones in front of them. Moreover, they would not eat what Ye Yu fed them, but would only bite what Grandpa Wang threw out.
Mr. Wang raised his head proudly: "How is my dog?"
"Not bad." Ye Yu gave a thumbs up and glanced at the food reserves on his shoulder. Look at others, they can hunt, but you can only chirp and catch some insects at most.
Old Master Wang asked Ye Yu if he wanted to raise one. He was reluctant to give away the five hunting dogs. Besides, dogs were very loyal and might not be tamed if given away. However, one of his female hunting dogs was pregnant and he could give Ye Yu and the others one or two puppies.
Ye Yu was a little hesitant. If she didn't have spatial abilities, she would definitely need one. However, spatial abilities meant being able to move freely through mountains and forests, so having a hunting dog didn't seem to make much difference.
But she could understand the old man's kindness. He saw that she went in and out of Nanshan too often, and hoped that the hunting dog could help take care of her. Besides, there is no hunter without a hunting dog.
Secondly, Mr. Wang has deep feelings for these hunting dogs and hopes to find a good place for them. If he can raise sparrows, one of the four pests of elm, well and truly, hunting dogs will definitely not be a problem.
Ye Yu agreed: "Okay, thank you, old man." When the time comes, if Hua Feifei and the other three are interested, they can also come to Nanshan to practice. Mountain hunting dogs are the best companions.
"Hmph, you got it for free."
