Chapter 572 I won't let animals hurt me
Lu Qiaoge, in a very pleasant mood, nodded with a smile.
"Okay, I'll eat whatever you make!"
Then, he looked into the forest and said, "I'm going to catch pheasants and rabbits."
Qin Hengzhi merely glanced at Lu Qiaoge.
If this girl joined the army, she would definitely become a top soldier.
Moreover, he could become the number one soldier king in the world.
This "world" doesn't just refer to the world of China, but to the entire world.
But now...
Qin Hengzhi said, "Be careful."
But deep down he knew that this safety did not refer to Lu Qiaoge's safety, but rather the safety of the animals in the mountains and forests.
Of course, "animals" refers to those without intelligence; those with intelligence would definitely follow her.
But Lu Qiaoge nodded obediently: "Okay, I will be careful and make sure those animals don't hurt me. Don't worry."
Qin Hengzhi: "..."
I thought to myself: If I said that what I'm worried about is those little animals, you'd definitely be unhappy.
After all, one still needs to maintain the image of a lady or beauty.
Qin Hengzhi was too lazy to pay any more attention to Lu Qiaoge's feigned weakness.
He lowered his head and started cleaning the fish, while on the other side he boiled water and waited for Lu Qiaoge to bring over the pheasant, so he could process it directly here.
As expected, Lu Qiaoge brought back three pheasants and two rabbits.
This time, Lu Qiaoge didn't lie on the grass, but instead worked with Qin Hengzhi to deal with it.
The two men cleaned a pheasant and then stuffed it with a special mushroom sauce.
Qin Hengzhi had already prepared a fire pit beforehand, covered the pheasant with yellow mud, placed it in the pit, added charcoal, and then left it there.
The two of them first fed the small animals that had gathered around them.
However, these little animals are surprisingly easy to feed.
Since there were no large animals, and the larger ones lived in the water and could find their own food, there was no need for Lu Qiaoge. However, Qin Hengzhi slaughtered all three pheasants and threw their entrails into the pool for them to eat.
This is also very delicious for the big pike and the golden pufferfish.
After skinning the rabbit, Qin Hengzhi processed the rabbit skin to make gloves for the winter.
Lu Qiao swiftly chopped the rabbit into pieces with a swift motion.
After tidying up, Qin Hengzhi will make braised rabbit meat in a while.
Lu Qiaoge carried the remaining two pheasants and one rabbit, which had been processed, to the stream not far away.
Although it's late May, the mountain streams are still icy cold.
Although it's not the kind of icy, bone-chilling cold that you get in winter.
However, it can preserve pheasants and rabbits.
When they get back this afternoon, we can just take it home.
We can't just eat meat; we also need vegetables.
The two of them only brought scallions, ginger, and garlic.
After all, there are plenty of wild vegetables in the mountains this season.
Then Lu Qiaoge led the two cats to dig for wild vegetables on the other side of the hillside.
There are many wild vegetables, especially tender shepherd's purse growing along the stream.
Lu Qiaoge dug up wild vegetables such as dandelion, shepherd's purse, wild celery, and wild garlic.
After washing the dandelions clean, Lu Qiaoge rinsed them again in the water in her spatial dimension.
Then take it out, and you can eat it raw without worry.
The fried egg sauce is used to dip dandelions; people in Jiangcheng love to eat them this way.
Qin Hengzhi was not a native of Jiangcheng, but he was a northerner and he also liked this way of eating.
He was particularly struck by the familiar scent of dandelions.
But I didn't ask any further questions.
Just eat it.
Then we made soup with shepherd's purse, and the rest were all served cold.
Wash the small garlic cloves, cut them into sections, and marinate them for a while to eat as a side dish.
Once all of that was done, the chicken that was smoked over charcoal, which we can tentatively call beggar's chicken, was ready.
Lu Qiaoge smashed the mud balls covering the outside with a punch, and the next second, a fragrant aroma wafted towards her.
Actually, the wild pheasants on the mountain aren't as delicious as described in the book.
Pheasant meat is very tough.
One bite, and because the pheasant's meat is firm from constantly running around, it's impossible to bite into.
However, the mountain mushroom sauce made with spring water has a special flavor, making each bite fresh, fragrant, and delicious.
The weather was sunny today, with only a slight breeze occasionally brushing across the hillside.
The two sat cross-legged on a checkered sheet, with a bowl of fish sauce, a plate of fried small fish, braised rabbit meat, a plate of shredded pheasant meat, and the cold dish of mustard green and egg soup that they had just prepared in front of them.
But there weren't just two people; a big yellow dog and two big cats were also around them.
Two snakes, one green and one black, were coiled up not far away.
Next to the squirrel are two small black mice.
For some reason, Tao Tao and Nini didn't lay any eggs this year.
Lu Qiaoge always found it strange.
But she was too embarrassed to ask, because she found that Tao Tao and Nini didn't seem to care about it.
Then the two of them would occasionally go to see the little swallows that came back with them.
Like those three sparrows that seemed to have become spirits.
Of course, there are also lone pigeons.
It also had an owner, but now the owner has been taken to Haicheng by his son. The pigeons were also given away by the old Chinese medicine doctor. Before they were given away, the gray pigeon had already happily stayed in Lu Qiaoge's space. The old Chinese medicine doctor thought that the gray pigeon had run away, after all, since last year, the gray pigeon had often been away from home.
The old Chinese medicine doctor remembered this gray pigeon; it was the smartest of all the pigeons.
But if it flies away, so be it. Maybe it got stewed into soup or maybe someone adopted it.
The old man still hoped he had been adopted.
But he also knew that pigeon soup was very nourishing.
Many people like to drink pigeon soup to nourish their bodies.
However, Grey Pigeon doesn't need to worry about this at all now.
It and its companions surrounded Lu Qiaoge, eating what they liked and drinking the water that Lu Qiaoge had specially placed in a basin for them.
Qin Hengzhi remained very calm.
Of course, you should at least pretend to be calm in front of these small animals, otherwise you'll embarrass yourself.
Qin Hengzhi didn't want to embarrass Lu Qiaoge.
So everyone, from people to animals, enjoyed the picnic very much.
After eating, they flew and ran around frolicking on the hillside.
Qin Hengzhi, holding Lu Qiaoge's hand, strolled slowly on a very flat grassy area.
Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge said.
"I will probably stay at the base from mid-June to mid-July. Someone will be sent down here to temporarily take over the work here."
Lu Qiaoge looked at Qin Hengzhi in surprise.
"What, were you reassigned?"
Qin Hengzhi shook his head: "It's not a job transfer, it's just that Project 01 at the base has reached a critical moment. I have systematic training in this area, and I'm going to be an assistant to Elder Gu and Director He."
At this point, Qin Hengzhi paused for a moment and lowered his voice.
"But if I am suddenly transferred, some people may think that I am no longer the military representative stationed at the factory, or there may be other rumors. Don't take it to heart."
