Chapter 58: Elk, Giant Salamander
Jiang Si walked up to Qin Shen and looked under the yacht. It was pitch black and there was nothing strange.
She still asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Qin Shen watched for a long time and said, "It swam away."
Jiang Si was startled. "Gar crocodile?"
Qin Shen shook his head: "Maybe."
perhaps?
Jiang Si instinctively felt that it was unlikely to be a gar-crocodile. If it were a gar-crocodile, it would have shown up impatiently as soon as there was any movement.
After removing the feathers and internal organs of the Pu chicken, only more than a pound of meat and bones are left.
Chen Baoying stewed a pot of Puji, Reed and Mushroom Soup, and added some ginseng roots and wolfberries. Each person had just one bowl of soup, which was especially nourishing and nourishing.
Jiang Si took a sip, and the vague taste in his memory became clear, "It's so delicious~"
Shen Baoying smiled and said, "This Puji is a little small. When the chicks grow up and reproduce more, we can eat them often."
Niuniu said happily, "I'll also go dig some asparagus mushrooms and store more. I can eat them whenever I want."
Everyone smiled at each other, feeling that this moment was a rare moment of peace and happiness.
After a uneventful night, everyone woke up in high spirits.
Zhang Qingfang had long wanted to dig some soil and plant all the available areas on the yacht and the two steamships with grain and vegetables.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen went to pick up cattail eggs, Jiang Linhai and Lu Zhifeng were digging the soil in front of the yacht, and Jiang Chengwu was still responsible for keeping watch for everyone.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen walked through a patch of reeds, got on an inflatable boat and paddled along the reed marsh. They soon saw the nest of cattail eggs from yesterday.
The Puji was a little slow to react. It only flapped its wings and flew away after Jiang Si and Qin Shen had already approached it.
Qin Shen hit it with his pole and knocked it unconscious.
Qin Shen threw the Puji in front of her, and Jiang Si tied it up with a hemp rope. Then she saw Qin Shen kill all the Puji's children in the pot.
He held the bird's nest carefully and asked Jiang Si, "Do you want to apply a few nests of Puji? The Puji chicken we had last night was quite delicious."
Jiang Si pursed her lips and smiled, not expecting that Qin Shen also had a greedy side.
"Okay, then raise some."
After the inflatable boat moved along the path for dozens of meters, Qin Shen discovered another nest of cattail eggs and caught a black snake as thick as his calf.
The black snake was not poisonous. Qin Shen held it in front of Jiang Si and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"
Snakes contain the most parasites. In his previous life, Jiang Si would never eat such things unless it was absolutely necessary.
There are so many things to choose from now, Jiang Si naturally shook his head: "It's hard to treat if you eat parasites, so forget it, let's just eat something normal."
"good."
Qin Shen broke off the snake's head and threw it casually into the grass.
Continuing forward, they picked up a few more nests of cattail eggs and two nests of wild duck eggs.
When the river trail was almost at the end, Jiang Si suddenly saw an elk. Before she could shoot, Qin Shen was shot by "bang".
The elk struggled twice and then fell down.
Jiang Si was very happy because the bull elk was already an adult and weighed at least two hundred kilograms.
During this period, they can eat fresh meat every day.
Speaking of which, Qin Shen quite likes to eat meat. He is not interested in eating vegetarian food and can eat two more bowls of rice if he eats meat.
Qin Shen walked ashore and carried the elk. Suddenly, there was a rustling sound of something crawling and sliding quickly in the reed marsh.
Jiang Si thought it was a giant python and shouted to Qin Shen, "Danger!"
Qin Shen quickly ran onto the inflatable boat. A giant creature, pitch black with six horns and resembling a giant salamander, quietly poked its head out from the reeds.
Jiang Si recognized it at a glance; it was a giant salamander that had reverted to its ancestral form.
Small salamanders are kept as pets in modern times. They are docile and timid, with cute and adorable expressions, and are popular among many young people.
The giant salamander is also called the rex salamander. It lives in swamps or wetlands, is amphibious, and is extremely aggressive. It feeds on dinosaurs and crocodiles. Its mouth is full of sharp teeth, which makes it easy to bite prey. This atavistic salamander is relatively small, only three or four meters in size, and cannot even swallow a person.
The giant salamander that Jiang Si encountered in his previous life could swallow a small car with its mouth open.
There is also venom on their backs, which contains deadly dolphin toxin, 0.5 grams of which can kill an adult.
Although it looks ugly and has a bulky body, it crawls quite fast.
Qin Shen had just boarded the lifeboat when the salamander was only a few meters away from them.
Bullets cannot kill such a giant monster. Jiang Si took out a grenade from his pocket. The moment the salamander opened its mouth, Jiang Si pulled out the safety pin and threw it into the salamander's mouth accurately.
Qin Shen's strong and powerful arms picked up the oars, and it was like a propeller was installed. Before the grenade exploded, the lifeboat whizzed backwards.
"Bang--"
The salamander exploded into pieces of meat, and only some blood foam was affected on Jiang Si's body.
The sudden explosion startled Shen Baoying so much that her heart trembled and she shouted anxiously: "Sisi, Sisi——"
Jiang Si wiped his face and waved the little red flag.
Shen Baoying saw it from the boat and immediately said to Jiang Linhai and Lu Zhifeng: “They are over there!”
Jiang Linhai ran very fast, "Sisi, Qin Shen, where are you?"
Lu Zhifeng followed closely behind and shouted as well.
Soon, Jiang Si responded, "We're fine, wait for us on the shore, don't go into the water."
When Jiang Linhai heard Jiang Si's response, his heart dropped and he broke out in a sweat.
Jiang Si and Qin Shen appeared in their sight.
Seeing them covered in blood and the blurry flesh inside the inflatable boat, Jiang Linhai asked fearfully, "What happened?"
Jiang Si handed them two Puji and said, "I encountered a giant salamander. I blew it up with a grenade. It's okay."
Jiang Linhai put the chicken on the ground and helped Jiang Si off the boat. "How big is a giant salamander? Is it bigger than the largest gar?"
Jiang Si nodded: "It's about the same as a small car."
Jiang Linhai and Lu Zhifeng looked at each other and saw shock and relief in each other's eyes.
Jiang Linhai asked anxiously, "Are there any giant salamanders here?"
Jiang Si shook his head: "Salamanders have their own sense of territory. If we kill that one, there won't be another one for the time being. However, it's better to be careful. Let's go back quickly."
Jiang Linhai nodded hurriedly, and only then noticed that there was a moose weighing more than 200 kilograms on the lifeboat.
Elk meat is delicate and plump with a very refreshing taste, and is the "king" among many meats.
Deer antler is an excellent medicinal material. It can not only strengthen yang, but also be used to strengthen muscles and bones, and treat physical weakness and internal injuries.
Deer antler wine is a luxury product that people are eager to buy.
Deer tendons can also be used to make bowstrings, and coats made of deerskin are soft, breathable, sweat-absorbent, and warm.
Deerskin is also waterproof. Water bags made of deerskin are lightweight and leak-proof, and they don't take up space after drinking.
Ancient hunters’ favorite items were deerskin water bags and deerskin boots.
When Jiang Linhai and Lu Zhifeng saw the elk, they couldn't help but laugh and praised, "Good stuff!"
