Sure enough, the carpenter's judgment was correct. This was obviously not the first time she had done this. Before Qiao Xuejun had time to approach, the carpenter had already reached into the trap and pulled out a little bird. The carpenter skillfully fished out the bird from its wing nest, then held both of its wings in his hands and identified it: "Boss, it's a sweet-scented osmanthus sparrow!"
Qiao Xuejun also walked closer and saw that the big bird picked up by the little carpenter was dark brown all over, with some grayish-white spots distributed in a regular pattern. Its feathers were fluffy and it looked quite beautiful.
“Chichichi!”
It was a little frightened, and stretched its neck and chirped sharply.
She took a look and said: "Chicken with a stalk."
Because of its beautiful spotted fur, the locals call it the Osmanthus Sparrow, and more people call it the Reed Chicken. However, the industry generally believes that it is a type of blue-breasted quail, not a Gallus gallus. But this thing is easy to raise and lays eggs, and it even became a popular pet for a time.
In fact, it’s also very suitable for the end of the world.
If you don't have chickens, it's a good idea to raise this one, and its eggs can be a good source of protein.
The young carpenter handed the rooster in his hand to Qiao Xuejun: "Boss, take it. I just felt another one underneath!"
Qiao Xuejun took it, and the little carpenter squatted down and reached his hand under the cardboard to feel around. Then his eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "I found two!"
Because they were going up the mountain to catch prey, Qiao Xuejun and the carpenter brought a cardboard box with them before going up the mountain. The carpenter took the cardboard box and stuffed the two pheasants directly into it, including the one in Qiao Xuejun's hand.
After stuffing them in, quickly cover the cardboard box. After all, pheasants can fly, so you can't let them run away.
There were several traps and the little carpenter was full of confidence.
But later on, they didn't have such a good harvest. They set eight traps in total, and five of them caught prey.
In addition to the first trap that caught 3 pheasants, there was also another trap that caught 1 pheasant. The third trap also caught a hare.
They put four henhouses in one box and a hare in another.
There were three other traps that did not catch any prey. The rice on two of the traps had not been touched, which probably meant that no prey was tempted.
However, the carpenter still looked very surprised: "I usually make traps, but it is difficult to catch prey successfully in one day! They don't come to step on the traps, and they don't eat the food!"
This should be attributed to the fact that the location of Joe Biden’s election trap was good, so the success rate increased.
But the rice on one of them was gone, obviously a prey had been there but escaped from the trap.
The young carpenter checked the trap and wondered, "Strange, how did it escape? This is a one-way switch. If you fall in, you can't get out. Could it be that you didn't fall in?"
But they couldn't see anything, so they put bait on the trap again and went to the last trap.
The rice grains on the last trap also disappeared. The little carpenter reached out to grab it as before, but his face changed and he jumped up shouting, "Ahhh, it's a mouse!"
Qiao Xuejun saw a black mouse biting the carpenter's finger. The carpenter shook it twice, and the mouse flew away. After a few quick sprints, it disappeared into the bushes.
Qiao Xuejun quickly walked up to the carpenter, grabbed his hand, and said seriously, "Were you bitten?"
Bright red blood was flowing from the carpenter's right index finger.
The bright red color was glaring, and Qiao Xuejun's heart suddenly felt heavy.
The young carpenter said carefully: "The wound is not big."
Qiao Xuejun bit her lip. This was not a matter of whether the wound was big or not. Being bitten by a rat was risky for tetanus and rabies! Especially for a rat in the wild, no one knew whether it would carry any virus.
Blame her. Qiao Xuejun felt a little guilty. She should have stopped the carpenter from doing it directly. She was wrong not to take any measures.
Qiao Xuejun: "Let's go, go back and deal with it."
She had alcohol in her home, so she could at least do some basic disinfection first, and then find a chance to go to a hospital or clinic for an injection.
The carpenter felt a little pain when his finger was bitten, but now he doesn't feel anything at all. He originally wanted to tell Qiao Xuejun not to worry about it and to pick up some firewood before going down the mountain, but seeing Qiao Xuejun's cold face, he really didn't dare to speak.
The two of them went down the mountain, and Qiao Xuejun quickly pulled the little carpenter back to the shelter, washed her with soap, and took out alcohol to disinfect the wound.
After disinfecting, Qiao Xuejun looked at her wound, which was still a little red and swollen, and was worried: "Let's go to the town clinic to get an injection."
The young carpenter hesitated and said, "No, it shouldn't be a big deal. I've been to the mountains to catch pheasants before, and I was bitten and nothing happened."
Qiao Xuejun frowned deeply and said in a serious tone: "The virus has an incubation period. If you don't take it seriously now, can you accept the result of getting sick and dying?"
Moreover, this kind of thing happening now is not the worst outcome. Various institutions are still operating, the community is still providing relief and distributing food, and although there has been an outbreak of mad cow disease, it has not yet reached the point of large-scale death, and the clinics should still be there.
Qiao Xuejun: "Don't waste time, pack up and we'll go now."
She never likes delay in important matters.
The young carpenter had no choice but to follow Qiao Xuejun to pack up the chickens and rabbits they had obtained today and head to the clinic in town before the sun reached its highest point.
Before leaving, Qiao Xuejun hesitated for a moment, went to the warehouse, and picked up three cans of beef.
The town was so small that Qiao Xuejun looked at the map provided by the system and took the carpenter to quickly find the town clinic which was 800 meters away.
