Chapter 18: When people have a full stomach, they will have wild thoughts



Time quickly arrived at Saturday.

Banggeng had a day off that day, so Jia Dongsheng got up early and gave everyone a bowl of hot noodle soup. After the family had eaten, Jia Zhang took the lead, leading Jia Zhang and Banggeng to the mountain to visit the graves of Old Jia and Jia Dongxu.

Qin Huairu was pregnant, so she and Xiao Danger stayed at home to look after the house.

The bus left the east gate, and after getting off the bus, the group of three walked for more than an hour before they finally arrived in front of a large mountain.

This should be considered a very large mountain around the old city of Sijiu. The mountain is high and the forest is deep. Jia Dongsheng's eyes lit up a little.

There is no such thing as animal protection in this era.

There must be a lot of animals in such a big mountain.

There are definitely small animals like squirrels, rabbits, pheasants, and wild ducks, as well as large animals like wild boars, tigers, and wolves, as well as crawling snakes.

The function of the B&B space relies on the space coverage mode. As long as the prey is within the space coverage, it can be taken into the B&B space by mind.

Living things in the space cannot move. In other words, even if a tiger is caught in the space, it can only become a lamb to be slaughtered...

Thinking of this, Jia Dongsheng felt saliva forming in his mouth. Tiger meat, even though he was a top chef in his previous life, he had never eaten it.

After all, in later generations, eating tiger meat is equivalent to going to jail, and anyone with a little legal knowledge would not do this.

But in this day and age, we are not afraid anymore. If we can catch a tiger, we will eat it without hesitation.

Jia Dongsheng went up the mountain with Jia Zhang. Along the way, he familiarized himself with the environment in the mountain and looked to see if there were any prey.

But to his disappointment, although both of his eyes were 1.5, he couldn't see anything.

But when he demonstrated the capabilities of the B&B space, the hare hiding underground instantly appeared in his mind.

"There really is prey."

There was no doubt that there were six wild rabbits in the litter, but three of them were just cubs. Jia Dongsheng didn't want them, but put the three mature rabbits into the space.

"Haha, hunting is that simple."

After walking in the mountains for more than ten minutes, they arrived at the graves of Lao Jia and Jia Dongxu, took out paper, and paid respects to the two.

After visiting the grave and kowtowed to Old Jia, Jia Dongsheng actually felt a sense of relief. He couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "Could it be that the soul of the original body is still there?"

Although this is feudal superstition, time travel is real and Jia Dongsheng can't help but think about it.

But this kind of thing was impossible to figure out, so I could only let it go. By the time I led Banggen out of the mountain, there were already seven wild rabbits, two snakes, and three pheasants in the homestay.

In this era, not many people knew how to hunt, which led to an abundance of prey in the mountains. However, when the three-year famine entered its third year, the prey in the mountains was in danger.

People who know how to hunt will go into the mountains to look for prey. Even a blind cat can catch a dead mouse. People who don’t know how to hunt can also catch prey. By then, the mountains will not be cleared out, and many prey will definitely disappear.

"It seems I need to find some time to go to the mountains a few times and get more game."

Although the meat of hares and pheasants is not as oily as that of domestic chickens, they are chewier because they run in the mountains all year round, making them suitable for people with good teeth.

On the way back, I was not lucky and did not meet any bus, so I had to walk back to Sijiucheng.

After this trip, Jia Zhang was exhausted. Qin Huairu did all the housework, and she only sewed the soles of shoes as exercise.

I really can’t stand walking for such a long time out of the blue.

Comparatively speaking, Banggeng was much better. He was young and played like crazy every day when he was in the courtyard and at school. For him, this time was just a trip out to play, but after coming back, he fell asleep on the kang with Jia Zhangshi.

However, after this ordeal, Jia Dongsheng discovered something strange, that is, the endurance of this body was quite good.

Although Jia Dongsheng's body has far surpassed that of an ordinary person after ten years of practicing the Five Animal Exercises, he still feels a little tired after walking for two or three hours.

Today, after coming down from the mountain, Jia Dongsheng walked directly back to the courtyard. He walked for more than three hours, but he did not feel tired at all. On the contrary, he was still energetic. This is unreasonable.

"Could it be that after crossing over, my body has also undergone unknown changes?"

I haven’t gotten an accurate answer to my thoughts yet, and it will take time to verify. However, my health is getting better and better, which is at least a good thing and worth being happy about.

"Dongsheng, what are we having for dinner tonight?"

Qin Huairu held her big belly with both hands and looked at Jia Dongsheng with her big eyes.

"Sister-in-law, I still have the tomatoes and eggs I bought yesterday. I'll make some tomato and egg soup and steam some buns."

"Mantou?"

Qin Huairu's eyes lit up, then dimmed again. She gently advised, "Don't make steamed buns with all flour. Mix some cornmeal into it and make two-grain buns. That way you can have more flour for a few more meals."

"Sister-in-law, let's just eat white flour buns. I'll make more when the flour is gone."

Jia Dongsheng knew that Qin Huairu was careful, so he didn't take it seriously. In his own homestay, there were 2,000 kilograms of rice and flour, which was enough to last for a long time.

Of course, even after the three-year famine ended, people would not be able to eat white flour buns every meal. They would just be able to have a full meal every day, not like during the three-year famine when they were hungry every day and could not even have a full meal a day.
