The prey was a civet cat.
When the little creature sensed the danger, it jumped directly onto the tree next to it.
After reaching the high branches, the little thing looked down at the dogs that were barking helplessly under the tree, and squeaked as if deliberately provoking them.
Civets are also nocturnal animals and usually come out to look for food at dusk.
It’s a bit early now, so it should have just come out of the nest.
"Woof!"
“Woof woof…”
Several dogs gathered under the tree, looking up and barking at the little thing.
This civet cat was quite brave. Not only was it not afraid, it also threw the nut shell it was eating down and hit Ruyi on the head.
Ruyi whimpered in pain and raised her paw to touch the dog's head.
"How dare you bully my pup!"
Chen Wang muttered softly, aimed the slingshot in his hand at the civet cat on the tree, and suddenly let go of his right hand that was holding the leather bag.
The glass beads shot out and hit the little thing accurately.
The civet cat fell directly from the tree, screaming in panic in mid-air.
Several dogs under the tree were barking excitedly, ready to move.
The tiger suddenly jumped high, opened its bloody mouth and grabbed the fallen civet cat. After landing, it turned around and ran towards Chen Wang.
"Woof!"
“Woof woof!”
Four dogs followed behind, barking anxiously.
When he arrived in front of Chen Wang, Da Hu squatted down and wagged his tail rapidly.
When he was free at home, Chen Wang often played rubber balls with his three dogs. He would throw the ball as far as possible, letting the three dogs scramble to get it back.
It can train dogs' obedience and let them compete with each other to train their speed and reaction.
Most of the time, it was Dahu who brought the ball back.
At least so far, Dahu's speed, reaction and physical fitness are the strongest among the dogs.
Both Dahei and Yuanshuai, the two Qingshan dogs, are considered first-class hunting dogs, but they are still inferior to Dahu.
Of course, Ruyi and Yanwang’s talents may surpass Dahu in the future.
“Well done.”
Chen Wang rubbed Da Hu's dog head and took the civet cat out of its mouth.
The little thing wasn't dead yet, but it was taking its last breath.
If those female netizens in future generations who like cute animals saw this, they would be drowned in saliva.
Chen Wang handed it to Chen Dazhuang.
After Chen Dazhuang took it, he took out a knife and ended the little creature's life with one knife.
He squatted down and began to skin and gut the animal.
The heart was given to Da Hu, and the other internal organs were given to the other four dogs.
This little thing doesn't have much meat, so naturally its internal organs are also pitifully small.
The dogs finished their meal quickly, and were obviously still hungry.
Of course, you can't let them eat too much, otherwise it will affect the subsequent hunting.
The civet cat's skin was put into Chen Wang's medicine basket, and the meat was put into a sack.
After packing up, the two continued on their journey.
When we arrived at the cave, it was already dark.
It was even darker in the cave.
Chen Wang brought a flashlight with him. Using the light of the flashlight, the two of them took a brief tour of the place where the two prisoners had lived before.
It's quite spacious inside, with a large flat stone to sleep on. It should be warm after lighting a fire.
"Awang, look here, there is still a lot of firewood!"
Chen Dazhuang said in surprise.
When Chen Wang looked over there, he saw that there was still a lot of wood piled up there, probably left over by the two prisoners.
"That's great. It saves us from having to go out and pick up the food. Let's start a fire quickly and fill our stomachs first."
"Okay!"
"I'll light the fire, you find a stick and string the civet cats together. Let's try what it tastes like when it's roasted."
"Okay, I'll do it."
After saying that, the two of them immediately got busy.
Chen Wang took some firewood to the middle, put some thin branches and dead leaves underneath, took out a lighter and lit the dead leaves.
Soon the fire was burning well and the cave became warm.
Chen Dazhuang took the civet cat skewered on the wooden stick, squatted beside it and started roasting it.
Chen Wang took out the seasonings from the medicine basket and sprinkled them on one by one.
These are the leftover seasonings from the last barbecue, including salt, chili powder and cumin powder.
With the sound of sizzling oil, the aroma of meat mixed with seasonings immediately spread.
"Let me roast it. Go get another rabbit. I'm afraid this little bit of meat won't be enough. We need to feed the dogs, too."
Chen Wang said with a smile.
"Yes, I think I can finish this one. Here, I'll get it."
Chen Dazhuang handed him the stick, stood up and walked to the sack over there, took out a rabbit from it, and skinned it skillfully.
When it was almost done, Chen Wang stuck the wooden stick next to the fire, went to the medicine basket and took out the cakes and water prepared by his wife, as well as two apples and two bananas.
Chen Wang handed the little monkey a banana, sat down by the fire, and handed a pancake to Chen Dazhuang.
"Leave it there and let it roast. Eat some first!"
"Okay!"
Chen Dazhuang also stuck the roasted rabbit in his hand next to the fire and took the pancake.
"Come, eat the meat."
Chen Wang picked up the roasted civet cat in his left hand and held a small knife in his right hand, motioning him to spread out the pancake in his hand and cut off a few pieces of golden roasted meat.
Chen Dazhuang swallowed his saliva, folded the pancake, and couldn't wait to take a big bite.
"How is it? There are pickles here, which will definitely taste good if wrapped in it."
“Mmm…delicious!”
Chen Dazhuang's mouth was full and he could hardly speak clearly. He just kept nodding with a smile.
Seeing his exaggerated eating habits, Chen Wang also felt a little greedy, so he quickly cut a few pieces of meat for himself, added two pieces of pickled radish from the aluminum lunch box next to him, and rolled them up with the pancake.
One bite and you'll feel full of happiness and satisfaction.
The roasted meat is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The civet cat meat is delicious to begin with, and when paired with the pickled radish made by my mother-in-law, it has a crisp, salty and spicy taste that makes you salivate with delight.
The cave suddenly became quiet, and the only sounds that could be heard were the two people chewing and the sound of wood burning and breaking.
The two of them ate until they were quite full.
The remaining half rabbit and some bones were given to a few dogs to share.
There were still a few large pancakes, so Chen Wang put them into the medicine basket first, as he might need to eat them in the evening.
It was completely dark outside the cave.
Nocturnal animals gradually came out of their caves and began their foraging and hunting.
The sounds of various insects and birds are endless.
In the cave, the fire was no longer burning, only the red-hot charcoal was emitting heat.
Chen Wang and his friend sat by the fire, each holding an apple and chewing it, discussing which direction to go next.
After finishing the fruit, the two rested for about half an hour, then packed up and walked out of the cave.
“Ah——”
There was a low and long wolf howl.
The two were not panicked at all, because judging from the sound, the person was very far away from them.
