Chapter 101 Niu Jianqiang!!

In the evening, Mingdai not only cooked braised roe deer meat, but also built a bonfire in the yard for a barbecue.

Zhou Sinian was busy and very happy!

Freshly pickled roe deer meat is skewered on wire and hung on a rack. Zhou Sinian flips the rack while Ming Dai brushes honey on it. The two work in perfect harmony.

The sweet aroma of honey mixed with the aroma of barbecue wafted in the air, attracting even the silly roe deer on the grass, stretching their necks and looking around curiously.

Little did they know that Zhou Sinian was already planning to pick another lucky one from among them to eat.

Ming Dai asked Zhou Sinian to take the roasted meat down and put new ones on. The two of them ate while roasting. There was a bubbling sound in the charcoal basin, which was a mushroom soup hot pot.

The thin pink slice of meat is placed inside and curled up after being heated for a few seconds.

Put it in a bowl and dip it in sauce. Zhou Sinian exclaimed how delicious it was.

"Ming Dai, this is delicious!"

Zhou Sinian pointed at the hot pot and said this with his eyes shining, meaning that he wanted to eat it again next time.

Ming Dai also liked it. She boiled fresh sweet potato vines and bit them until they were crunchy. "When you get better, we'll have hot pot. The shabu-shabu meat is delicious. It's a pity that there's no beef. I want to eat shabu-shabu beef, but the warehouse doesn't have it."

Zhou Sinian tilted his head: "Au? I think I've seen it before."

Ming Dai turned the barbecue over and said, "I think I've seen this in the previous village. Cows are usually used to plow the land."

Zhou Sinian shook his head: "I saw it in the mountains."

Ming Dai paused while picking up the food: "In the mountains? How is that possible? There are no wild buffaloes in the mountains of Heilongjiang Province."

Zhou Sinian thought for a moment and said, "They ran up the mountain by themselves. There were wild boars trying to eat them, so I locked them up."

Ming Dai was surprised: "You locked them up, what do you mean? No, them? How many are there?"

Zhou Sinian raised his chin proudly: "We locked them up, just like in our house, so that wild boars can't bite them. There were two of them, they were pulled here by a cart, and the cart overturned, so they ran up the mountain, not this mountain, but the one before.

Many people went up the mountain to look for it, but unfortunately they were too stupid to find it. I found it later!!

I was brought here by the old man, and he also brought them here and put them on this mountain."

Ming Dai was stunned when she heard this: "If you lock them up, won't they starve to death?"

Zhou Sinian chewed the barbecue, which was greasy and sweet. "No, I went to see them. They are alive. I put a lot of grass there, so they can eat it."

"When did you go to see it? How come I didn't know about it?"

Zhou Sinian glanced at her and said, "You don't know anything when you fall asleep. I went there at night."

Ming Dai swallowed her saliva and said, "Where on the mountain is that? Do you remember?"

Zhou Sinian nodded proudly: "Of course, I know everything I have hidden!"

"What else did you hide?"

Zhou Sinian was a little angry: "Yeah! They always steal my things, so I hide them!"

Ming Dai had not yet adapted to Zhou Sinian's sudden talkativeness, and now Zhou Sinian gave her a big surprise.

She was so shocked by the information that she didn't even notice that the barbecue was burnt.

Zhou Sinian took the meat and looked at it with regret, but couldn't bear to throw it away, so he put it in his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it.

Ming Dai looked at him and said, "Zhou Sinian, shall we go check on the cows tomorrow?"

Zhou Sinian nodded: "Okay."

In his eyes, Mingdai is not an outsider, and he is willing to share with Mingdai. He didn't say it before because he forgot.

Mingdai felt relieved and began to look forward to tomorrow.

Early the next morning, before daybreak, Mingdai called Zhou Sinian to get up. She was a little excited.

Zhou Sinian was called up, but he didn't get angry. He quickly washed up and ate a few steamed buns with red bean paste that Mingdai had heated up. Then the two of them left the space, avoided people, and ran towards the mountain.

When they reached the foot of the mountain and made sure that there was no one around, Mingdai took out a pair of non-slip rain boots for Zhou Sinian to wear.

At Mingdai's request, Zhou Sinian carried her on his back and walked up Yezhuling. The snow on the mountain was very thick, and Zhou Sinian had to walk very hard, and he also had to be careful of the snow pits that appeared from time to time.

After falling several times, they reached a cliff.

Ming Dai looked at the bare cliffs and the thick snow, and looked at Zhou Sinian: "There's nothing here?"

Zhou Sinian said nothing, but broke off a branch and swept away the snow on the ground, and slowly a pile of stones appeared.

Mingdai watched him move the stones little by little, revealing a cave.

Ming Dai looked at the big rock on the ground, then looked at Zhou Sinian standing beside her: "Is this what you mean by locking it up?"

Zhou Sinian nodded: "Yeah!"

Mingdai: It’s over, the cow must be starving to death!

She felt very sorry, so she took out a flashlight, gave one to Zhou Sinian, and followed him inside.

The further we go in, the stranger it seems; this doesn't look like a naturally formed cave.

The height inside became higher and higher. When she passed through the irregular cave ceiling and the rubble on the ground and saw the cement walls inside, she was sure that this was a man-made cave.

She began to get nervous. There were only two kinds of people who could dig a cave like this in the mountains. She was worried that she had met one of those people who were not living a good life.

Zhou Sinian was very familiar with the place, so after entering, he took Mingdai inside.

The rooms inside confirmed Mingdai's idea, but now the rooms were empty, leaving only some broken tables and chairs.

After walking for a few minutes, Mingdai smelled a strong odor and saw dry cow dung on the ground.

Mingdai's premonition became even worse.

After turning two corners, Zhou Sinian took the lead and entered a room.

Lying against the corner were two large, skinny rib-cage cows.

Mingdai smiled bitterly, it was really beef ribs!

The distinct ribs were wrapped in cowhide and could be seen clearly.

There were piles of cow dung on the ground, and traces of haystacks next to them. They must have been put there by Zhou Sinian in the past, and now they have been eaten clean.

"When was the last time you fed them?"

Zhou Sinian: “Last time!”

Ming Dai sighed: "Was it before we built the reservoir or after we built the reservoir?"

Zhou Sinian thought for a moment and said, "Before the reservoir was built, I stopped coming after the snow. I thought they wouldn't eat when it snowed, but then I forgot."

What he said was so justified that it could not be refuted.

Mingdai looked at him, then looked at the beef ribs on the ground.

"Well, it's just your bad luck."

Zhou Sinian was disgusted with the cows sleeping in the pile of cow dung on the ground, and kicked them: "Wake up!"

Ming Dai held him back: "Stop kicking them, they are dead."

Zhou Sinian shook his head in confusion: "No! He's not dead, look."

After saying that, he pried open the eyes of a cow and shone a flashlight at it.

Ming Dai looked over. Although the cow rolled its eyes, its pupils did react. She was shocked: "It's not dead yet?!!!"

Niu Jianqiang!!!

Mingdai quickly looked at the other one and saw its pupils react as well. She immediately moved the two cows to a different space.

Zhou Sinian followed in and looked at the cow lying on the grass, which was so skinny that it was unrecognizable. He asked worriedly, "Mingdai, the meat is gone. Are the bones delicious?"

Ming Dai was busy flipping through the veterinary book in her head: "The bones are not tasty, I'll try and see if I can save them!"

After choosing a prescription, she rushed to the warehouse to start preparing the medicine.

Zhou Sinian stood where he was, frowning as he looked at the two skeletons on the ground. He plucked up a handful of grass, forcibly pried open the mouth of a cow, and stuffed the food in with force. The cow choked and rolled its eyes continuously.

Mingdai came out with medicine and quickly stopped them!

"Ancestor, please stop making trouble!"

Zhou Sinian let go awkwardly and threw the grass away quietly.

She took out a colander and inserted it into the cow's mouth. She asked Zhou Sinian to hold the cow's head while she picked up the basin and poured nutrient solution into it.

The poor ox couldn't swallow on its own. Mingdai was very anxious. It was only after Zhou Sinian pressed on the ox's neck that it started to swallow.

After the two cows were fed, they finally had the strength to open their eyes on their own. Their dry eyeballs were blank and would not move, and they looked like they were about to die.

Mingdai made some milk and fed them in the same way. This time the cows began to swallow on their own, very slowly. After the two of them finished feeding, they were sweating all over.

Everything that can be done has been done, and the rest depends on the luck of the two cows.

Mingdai brought Zhou Sinian out and continued to explore the cave.
