Chapter 325 Come to My Space
After clearing the dirt and gravel, a temporary sunshade needs to be built.
There was no way they could get out of the mountain at night, so they could only hide from the sun in a makeshift awning during the day.
Han Ying found a vacuum packaging machine and a box of vacuum bags from the through-area of the RV.
Wu Tingfang and the others all recognized these things because they bought them together before the end of the world.
Unexpectedly, Han Ying hasn’t finished it yet.
After the beef jerky is baked and cooled, seal it in a vacuum machine so that it can be preserved longer.
Tonight, we had a beef feast.
Ox hoof soup, stir-fried beef, boiled beef, beef dumplings...
We had originally agreed to use the two pressed ducks as extra dishes today, but now they are no longer necessary.
All the beef was not cooked by daybreak, but the rest had been marinated with high salt and fried first.
It’s okay to leave it for one more day, and continue drying it during the day or night.
All the bottles and jars in the RV were filled with beef paste, and bags of vacuum-packed beef jerky filled the cabinets and aisles.
There are also those beef bones that have been peeled cleanly, and no one is willing to throw them away.
Boiling beef bone soup can also provide calcium for everyone.
Everyone should have rested and sleep during the day, but the beef was not cooked yet, so everyone shortened their rest time and took turns making jerky in the car.
After another day, the beef jerky was finally ready.
Looking at the spectacular beef jerky in the aisle, everyone felt particularly at ease.
Originally, everyone was worried that if there was no source of food after arriving in Jiangcheng, they would probably end up eating up all the food they had.
I didn't expect to encounter a herd of cattle on the way.
Every family can get a lot of these dried meats, enough to last for a long time.
After the sun goes down in the evening, the temperature outside is still very high.
So everyone waited until about eleven o'clock, when the temperature dropped a little, before coming out of the RV.
They planned to kill another cow today, but the previous herd had all run away, and it might not be easy to find them again.
Everyone took walkie-talkies and divided into two teams to search.
Han Ying, Lu Yuan and Tangyuan are in one team, and the others are in another team.
However, Lei Yuhang and Lin Yang did not come out at night, leaving them and Lei Minghu in the RV.
The two teams searched in two different directions and notified each other via walkie-talkies if they made any discovery.
But for safety reasons, we agreed not to go far.
If you can find one, kill another one. If you can’t find one, forget it.
Han Ying and Lu Yuan looked to the left, while Lin Ting and the others looked to the right.
Han Ying gave Qin Qinghai and Wu Tingfang each a cloth bag, saying that it contained some Chinese medicine she had prepared herself that could repel mosquitoes.
These two cloth bags were sewn by Han Ying herself when she was taking a break just now.
In addition to some dried medicinal herbs, there were also half of the mutant soybean pods that had been exchanged from Zhuang Zi before.
It was the bean pod that Zhuang Zi had opened himself, and Han Ying each put half in a cloth bag.
It should also have a certain effect in repelling mosquitoes.
It was quiet all around, with only the occasional chirping of insects.
No one knows where the remaining engine-headed bull has hidden.
Han Ying and Lu Yuan found a higher place and looked around with night vision binoculars.
And let the dog use its expertise to smell the whereabouts of the cows.
Unexpectedly, as the dog was sniffing, he found a rabbit hole before he found the cow.
There was no grass anywhere, so there were only a few rabbits in this nest, only four.
Everyone has enough meat to eat for now, but it would be difficult to keep too much.
So Han Ying directly put the four rabbits into the space and let them keep company with the rabbits in the space.
Wait for an opportunity to take it out later.
After collecting the rabbits, Tangyuan continued to look forward.
When Han Ying was collecting rabbits, Lu Yuan was looking for them nearby with a flashlight.
"Huh?"
Lu Yuan felt that the touch under his feet was not right, so he shone the flashlight under his feet.
Then I found that the soil under my feet was a little moist.
Under the scorching sun, the mud has dried up and cracked into pieces, but how can this place still remain moist?
It means whether there is a dried-up spring nearby.
Hearing Lu Yuan's voice, Han Ying also came over.
She also discovered that the soil beneath the ground was different.
The two searched around and found a half-collapsed cave.
Some stones and soil covered most of the entrance to the cave, and there were several dead tree trunks blocking it nearby.
If you don't look carefully at night, you can't find it at all.
I carefully entered the cave and indeed heard a small mooing sound coming from inside.
The voice is still relatively immature, it should be the calf.
Walking further, the two were surprised to find a small pool of spring water in the cave.
This is really rare in today's extremely hot weather.
Not to mention the springs on the surface, even the groundwater has dried up a lot.
There is a spring here, and Han Ying guessed that there should be more than just cows and rabbits on this mountain.
I'm afraid there are other animals too.
Sure enough, the calf was next to the spring, and in addition to the calf, the cow with her calf was also there not far away.
At this time, the two cows were looking at Han Ying and Lu Yuan nervously.
If they had encountered any other cow, they would have slaughtered it on the spot.
But this calf is not even as tall as their thighs, and the cow looks like it will give birth in a few months.
Han Ying really couldn't bring herself to do it, so she simply put them all into the space.
The food and environment in this space are better than those outside. By going to her space, at least I can live a comfortable life before being slaughtered.
After putting the two cows into the space, the two began to study the spring water.
The spring seemed very small and the water flow was not strong. The two waited for a long time but the water level did not rise much.
So Han Ying and Lu Yuan decisively gave up the idea of asking other people to come here to get water.
As the two were about to go out, they heard a rustling sound coming from the intercom.
After the call was connected, Qin Qinghai and his team discovered the other cows that had escaped.
They found a bull that might have been injured while escaping, and it was limping in a valley.
The intercom was not hung up and we soon found the place they mentioned.
When Han Ying and the others arrived, Lin Ting had just killed the cow with a machete, and the cow's blood filled a foldable water bucket.
By the time the cow was divided up and everything was brought back to the RV, the blood had already been made into cow blood cake again.
The cow killed this time was smaller than yesterday's, but everyone was very satisfied.
A lot of trees were cut down nearby and everyone became busy again.
There was no place to put the beef sauce, so this time, apart from the beef that was eaten in the next two days, the rest was made into beef jerky which is easy to preserve.
There was plenty of firewood, so the roasting was done relatively quickly.
He Xiu and Wu Tingfang first fried the beef strips in a pan until they were drier, and then put them on the grill to roast, so that they could be roasted faster and drier.
