Chapter 815 Done
It’s not that I haven’t thought about going back, but going back would be courting death.
All the food we had along the way had been eaten up by this group of people. If we wanted to survive, we had to just keep moving forward.
Shen Yanming and Nuannuan felt sleepy after sitting for a while.
Bi Qiaoan noticed that her husband's voice was getting weaker and weaker, so she stopped talking and hugged An An to take a nap.
Most of the people outside were still hungry and refused to come back. They were almost drowning in the water for food. Fortunately, the river here might be connected to an underground river somewhere, so if they lost fish, they would be replenished soon.
Shen Yanming felt that he had done a great job keeping secrets.
At about 3:00 p.m., the wind started to blow. The sky was gloomy and looked as if it was about to collapse. Tang Shunlin was frightened and hurriedly asked people to return to the cave. But at this time, someone actually saw a small head sticking out from behind a big tree.
"What the hell, what is that, a sika deer?"
He got so excited that he shouted out loud, which scared away the elf that was concentrating on eating grass.
"Damn it, I can't let it go!"
"Meat, all meat!"
A group of people quickly chased after it, and Tang Shunlin, Ji Shaoming, and Shang Haoqiang saw it and rushed over to help. They were more experienced in fighting wild animals.
The wild deer ran very fast, and soon they lost track of them.
Several guards were veterans in this area and began to speculate the route based on the traces on the ground.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before we saw a group of leisurely and comfortable deer.
"There are actually five of them! That's a lot!" People who haven't even seen rabbits in the past two days are craving for meat.
"Be quiet, don't scare them away again."
"There are too many of us, and we may not be able to catch them all. Do you want to think of a way?"
"What else can we do? Dig a trap?"
"That's not a bad idea. Anyway, we have more people, so we can surround them from all sides and drive the deer into the pit. They will panic and be trapped, right?"
"Hey, I think you have a good brain. You can come up with such an effortless method."
"Hehe, that's right! But these are just my own ideas, I don't know if they are effective."
"If you want to know if it works, why don't you just ask Captain Tang and the others?"
Tang Shunlin was not far from them, so he naturally heard what they said. He nodded and said, "You can try."
Then he asked Meng Wu and Ji Shaoming to take people to dig traps, while he and Shang Haoqiang took people to watch the deer here.
Due to the lack of tools, digging the pit was very slow. Fortunately, the deer were just strolling nearby and were not out of their sight.
An hour later, the trap was finally formed. Ji Shaoming was extremely satisfied. He walked to Tang Shunlin and whispered, "Done!"
Tang Shunlin smiled and put the plan into practice.
A group of people quietly dispersed, forming a large circle, and then shrank from the outside to the inside, getting closer and closer.
At first the deer didn't react, but soon they discovered the problem.
Then he panicked and wanted to escape.
There were too many people surrounding the trap, so the deer could only run through the gaps deliberately left by the crowd. In a panic, they fell into the trap.
However, two of the five ran away, leaving only three.
"Listen carefully, we can eat it for at least three days!" Tang Shunlin said with a smile.
Others were also very satisfied with the result, and some even fantasized: "Maybe we can catch those two fish that slipped through the net tomorrow."
Meng Wu raised a question: "You said, we didn't encounter any large wild animals in the past few days, how come there are so many of them today?"
Shang Haoqiang didn't care: "Why bother with so much? It's good enough to have something to eat. Maybe it's because we just entered the hinterland."
Meng Wu shook his head and thought it was not the case: "It is better to be cautious. Otherwise, what if we encounter wolves and tigers? We don't have any weapons. Okay, you guys clean up here, I'll go ahead to check for traces."
"Okay, then you be careful." Tang Shunlin advised.
If Comrade Lao Shen knew about all the things that happened to his brother, he would definitely cry. However, God was still on his side.
Before Meng Wu took two steps forward, rain started to fall from the sky.
He frowned and decided to check where this herd of deer came from before the rain got heavier.
Just as the thought came to my mind, the sky suddenly leaked and the rain poured down on the ground. It was so heavy that I could hardly see the road.
Well, there is no trace this time, so let’s go back and take shelter from the rain.
Meng Wu thought about it, and quickly turned around to help Tang Shunlin get the wild deer out of the pit. Then he and his companions tied the deer's hooves with wild grass, and they carried it back together.
They didn't have a rope, so they didn't dare let the wild deer walk on its own for fear that it would run away.
Shen Yanming was awakened by the sound of rain outside the cave. He opened his eyes and found that there were only himself, Nuannuan, Wanwan, and Yajing in the cave.
"What about them?" Shen Yanming asked.
"I heard that they spotted some wild animals and went hunting." Li Wanwan said with a smile.
Shen Yanming raised his eyebrows: "Wild creature, what wild creature?"
"I don't know, it looked like a deer. It was too far away, I couldn't see it clearly."
Shen Yanming nodded and said nothing more. Looking at the dripping raindrops, he thought that God was really good to him. There was no trace left. Even if someone suspected him, there was nothing he could do.
Not long after, Tang Shunlin and his companions returned with the wild deer.
Shen Yanming looked at the number, three, nodded, and thought it was a good job.
He stood up and said, "Is this what I just hunted? It's amazing!" Then he pretended to be surprised and said, "There are actually deer in our mountain!"
Tang Shunlin smiled and nodded: "Yeah, I don't know where it came from, we are lucky."
He had the deer put in the innermost part of the cave, and looked at the firewood pile in the corner and said, "Fortunately, we collected some firewood in advance because we were worried about rain this morning. Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to roast the meat."
Shen Yanming nodded: "I just don't know if these are enough."
"It's not enough, but there's nothing we can do about it. We only prepared this much."
Shen Yanming smiled and said nothing more.
"How about we get rid of the deer before daybreak?"
"Sure, we can grill it in the evening."
Tang Shunlin, Ji Shaoming, and Shang Haoqiang carried a deer directly out of the cave. Shen Yanming looked at Nuannuan and gave up helping.
Seeing that there were enough people over there, Meng Wu went outside the cave and pulled up a lot of grass: "Save it for our other two deer to eat."
Chen Yanming smiled and held Nuan Nuan to look at the two shivering deer in the corner. After all, they were released from his own space, so he had some feelings for them.
(Bi Qiaoan: "...Shen Yanming, do you have any shame?")
Nuan Nuan touched the horns of the two deer with her little hands and asked her father: "Are we going to eat them later?"
Shen Yanming wanted to say no, but the truth was so cruel: “Yes, the uncles have nothing to eat, so they can only become food.”
Nuan Nuan frowned: "If there is food, they are not food?"
Shen Yanming explained seriously: "If they don't have to worry about food and drink, most people won't choose to go hunting in the mountains."
