Chapter 148: Snake Nest
Liang Zhimo ate politely. Upon hearing this, he raised his head slightly and looked at the group of people who were eating voraciously.
"There should be a lot of animals in Wanlin Mountain. If you hunt wild boars and bison, you can cut them into slices and use them for hot pot. Besides wild vegetables, some herbs can also be eaten directly."
One team member, who looked to be the youngest, held up a bamboo bowl and asked curiously, "Does it taste any different from what you'd eat at a hot pot restaurant?"
"No, it might be better."
The team member clenched his fist and looked at Xiao Yan, "Captain, I want to apply to lead the team to the back mountain to hunt tomorrow, and try to catch a few wild boars and bison."
"Very ambitious."
Xiao Yan commented.
There are indeed many wild animals in Wanlin Mountain, but it is extremely cold now, so it is not easy to find them.
Liang Yingsheng suddenly became interested: "Do you dare to eat snake meat?"
Hearing this, everyone looked up at her.
He covered his lips and coughed, suddenly feeling that what he said seemed a bit tough.
"I mean, we're short of meat right now, and snake meat is still meat, so it's a waste not to eat it, right?"
Xiao Yan suddenly added, "That rhymes quite well."
“…”
I couldn't help but glare at him. His job required him to be surrounded by bullets and gunfire all year round. He had experienced all kinds of harsh conditions. Had he never eaten snake meat?
Du Lingfeng couldn't help but start swallowing his saliva. "Snake meat is delicious. When we went to support the No Man's Land, Deputy Captain Zheng caught a python for us to roast and eat. The taste was..."
She had eaten snake meat out of necessity in the simulator. Now that there were so many delicious foods and drinks in the space, she definitely couldn't accept eating snake meat again.
Liang Zhimo put down his bowl and chopsticks. "The snakes must be hibernating now. There are many snake holes in these deep mountains. If we can find their nests, we should get a lot."
"Yes, there's not much snake meat, but at least it can fill the gaps between our teeth. With our current conditions, what's there to be picky about? I'll even eat rat meat."
"Although the thought of eating rat meat is disgusting, I support it. As long as we can survive, we won't be picky."
After a tense day, everyone was exhausted when they returned to the RV.
After locking the car doors and windows and drawing the curtains, Liang Yingsheng led his family into the space.
Space is a magical place. The osmanthus tree planted before is now in bloom. As soon as you approach the wooden house, you can smell the fragrance of the flowers.
Zhou Lanxin happily picked the sweet osmanthus flowers with a bamboo basket. "I'll ask your father to make sweet osmanthus cake for us tomorrow. His sweet osmanthus cake is really delicious."
The brother and sister were puzzled, "Dad can also make osmanthus cake?"
Zhou Lanxin smiled and said, "Of course, I agreed to be with him because I ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake your father made, and I thought his attitude towards pursuing me was quite good."
Liang Yingsheng immediately became interested: "How long have you been dating? Wasn't it common for parents to arrange marriages back then?"
Her mother's family is pretty well off in the village, but her father's family is not so well off, especially with that uncle.
Zhou Lanxin glanced at Liang Qiuwen. "It's only been a few months. My family will definitely object. They think he's poor, but I'm so stubborn that I'm determined to get married!"
It sounds quite grand.
After recounting her love history, Zhou Lanxin began to feel melancholy again. "When will we be able to hold our grandchildren? When will you find a partner?"
Here it comes again.
Liang Yingsheng winked at Liang Zhimo and yawned, "I'm sleepy, I'm going back to my room to sleep. Zhimo, do you hear me? Don't let your parents worry about you. Find a partner quickly."
Then he added, "If it's really not possible, how about I introduce Suibian to you? We all know each other well. You two are good apart from not looking like a couple standing together, but everything else is fine."
Zhou Lanxin and Liang Qiuwen followed suit.
"It's good to be casual. We all like that girl very much."
"That's right, she has a good personality and looks good too. Zhimo, let's go with her. Good things should be kept within the family. If you find another boyfriend casually, your dad and I will be very sad!"
Shaking off the goose bumps on his body, Liang Zhimo hurried to his room and said, "I'm going to sleep. I'm a little sleepy."
The survivors in the Hope Shelter are not as well protected as those in Jiangnan Middle School. To live here, each person must pay one kilogram of food or something of equal value every month.
One pound is already very little.
Therefore, even in extreme cold, a large number of survivors would form teams to go out and look for supplies at dawn.
Heavy snow prevents many wild vegetables from growing, so many people choose to go to distant bamboo forests to dig bamboo shoots. Some lucky ones can even dig up yams.
Xiao Yan took his subordinates back to the strategic base to report early in the morning. Du Lingfeng stayed and went into the mountains to hunt with Liang Yingsheng and others.
Catch the snake!
"Uncle Hu Zi, you seem to be very familiar with this area."
Aman changed into warm clothes, but he insisted on wearing a headscarf. The look was weird and funny.
"Yeah, I've been here a few times."
"Uncle Hu Zi, why don't you accept me as your godson? I can't go home anyway, and you don't have any family, so we can just get together."
Yi Songping is very capable and was originally assigned to a patrol team. The survivors in the patrol team who have no families have their own rooms and are treated well.
A'man insisted on living with Yi Songping, but in the end he had no choice but to find a job in the patrol team thanks to Cao Lei's relationship.
At this moment, Yi Songping was the team leader, leading more than a dozen people to dig out the snake's nest.
Yi Songping was experienced. He poked around with his sniper rifle and soon found a snake's nest in a forest covered with snow.
"Start digging."
He pointed to the mark he had made.
After all, it was a snake, Liang Yingsheng didn't dare to dig it out. There were so many little snakes in the snake nest, and there might even be snake eggs.
My scalp tingles when I think of the scene full of snakes.
Xue Kai is skilled and courageous, and he volunteered to take on the task of digging out snake nests.
I took a garden shovel from my backpack and started digging the snow.
The snow was so thick that it reached up to the knees when people stood on it.
The snake cave is on a small hillside, surrounded by dead branches and thick snow piled on top, many of which have been broken.
Shoveling snow was a big project. Yuan Xuyang and A'man helped out while Liang Yingsheng and Liang Zhimo wandered around casually. The weather was cold, but there were still birds singing in the woods.
If she is lucky enough to find a bird's nest, she also wants to catch a few birds and raise them in the space!
“I dug it up, I dug it up!”
Before he had gone far, Xue Kai's extremely excited voice came from behind him.
Liang Yingsheng quickly dodged behind Liang Zhimo and grabbed the hem of his clothes tightly with both hands.
We only found a snake nest, but no snakes.
Yi Songping took a thicker wooden stick and poked it inside.
"Keep digging. It's cold, so the snake hole should be deeper."
Du Lingfeng and Yuan Xuyang quickly took out tools to help.
"We don't know if the snake inside is poisonous. Stop when I tell you to."
Fortunately, the weather was cold and everyone wore gloves, which provided some protection.
It's easy to catch a cold in this weather, so everyone should be careful. Once you catch it, it will take a long time to recover.
