Yunxi plans to stay on the mountain for a longer period of time after this trip. The destination she reached last time was not far enough. There are still many mountains in the deep forests that she has not been to before.
I didn't tell anyone in the village about this trip up the mountain, not even the grandparents. I wonder if they'll worry about me if I don't come back for a long time.
After only a brief thought, Yunxi quickly put it out of her mind and focused on clearing the way.
Yunxi would occasionally pick herbs she saw not far from the roadside, but if they were too far away, she would simply ignore them.
Anyway, we already dug them up once last winter. The older herbs have already been dug up, and what's left are all less than a year old.
Of course, there's even less need to pick herbs that aren't very old. You can get them anywhere, so why waste time digging up those common herbs in such deep mountains and forests?
After walking for a whole day, they still hadn't reached the place where they had lured their prey last time. They found an open space and took out the tent they had sewn the day before.
Several thick tree trunks were cut down to support the corners of the tent. The bottom of the tent was also made of fur, with the fur side facing inwards. It was especially soft to lie in. To make herself even more comfortable, Yunxi specially added several more layers of thick fur.
After filling her stomach with the food she had prepared in advance from her spatial storage, Yunxi lay down in the tent, feeling the cool, refreshing snakeskin on her body. She wondered if she should cut off a pair of snakeskin pants.
If you can't protect the upper body, you can't protect the lower body either; a woman's lower body is also very vulnerable.
Since it wasn't time to go to sleep right away, I took out a snakeskin from my spatial storage, slowly cut off a small piece with a dagger, drilled holes little by little, and carefully sewed it together to make a pair of small pants.
Yunxi felt that she was quite skilled, and her skills were pretty good. She finished it in less than half an hour.
Although it looks rather rough, as long as it stays on my body, it's fine.
Yunxi realized that he hadn't encountered any ferocious wild beasts all day, and he thought it might be because of the snakeskin vest he was wearing.
That snake must have lived for a very long time; the vest must have carried its scent. Wearing it, that scent must have scared away other prey.
Of course, this is just Yunxi's guess. As for whether it is true, we can only wait until next time to verify it!
After putting everything away, he took out a thin blanket from his spatial storage, placed the wood-chopping knife beside him, and immediately began preparing for bed.
This was the first time Yunxi had slept so well on the mountain. She slept from last night until early the next morning without being disturbed by any wild animals.
I don't know if it was because of good luck or because of the snakeskin on my body?
He packed away his things from the tent, washed up with water from his spatial storage, ate a large plate of mixed noodles, and brewed himself a cup of tea with a few peach petals, intending to eat it on the road.
I walked until noon and arrived at the place where I had used peaches to make a trap last time.
On one side is a dense forest, and on the other side is a plain. Beyond the plain lies another dense forest, and there is even a particularly high mountain, at least a thousand meters high.
After stopping for lunch, they stepped directly into the plains. Instead of heading straight for the mountain, they wandered around the plains, here and there.
She felt that there must be many herbivores hiding in this plain. In her space, besides wild boar, sheep, pheasants, rabbits, snakes, leopard meat, wolf meat, deer meat, as well as eels caught in the ditches by the fields and fish caught in the river, there was no other meat. She wanted to broaden her diet.
As expected, Yunxi was not disappointed. After finding the flocks of sheep and deer, he spotted a herd of bison on a plain next to a stream.
Yunxi was particularly excited, but seeing the bison's large size, she felt it would be difficult to catch them.
After all, bison must be incredibly strong. Even if I tried to force vines to bind them, it wouldn't work. They're so strong that they could break free with the slightest struggle.
But it's definitely not possible to ask Yunxi to give up.
After much thought, the only method I could come up with was to dig a trap and then use the peach flesh from the space to lure them.
I cut a small piece of the peach flesh from last time, and the rest is still in my storage space. I can just cut another piece later.
Using her spatial abilities, she quickly dug a 5x5 square meter pit. The pit was quite deep, which greatly depleted Yunxi's mental energy, leaving her feeling dizzy.
He hid far away, crouched in the grass, took out the water infused with peach petals, and drank it all in one go.
After drinking it, my previously exhausted mental energy seemed to be restored.
He took out a peach from his spatial storage, gently sliced off a piece with a dagger, then inserted a small stick into the peach flesh, and placed the other end of the stick less than half a meter below the trap.
This way, you can lure the bison over without wasting your peaches, and you can use them again next time you need to lure them.
After inserting the peach pieces, Yunxi hid in the grass. Less than ten seconds later, she saw the bison that had been grazing suddenly stop.
They all looked up in the direction of the trap Yunxi had dug, and the first one to step forward was a particularly large male bison; it was unclear whether it was the leader.
He went straight to the location of the trap, circled it once, and came to the spot above where Li Xue had inserted peach flesh. He lowered his head, wanting to taste the sweet treat that was enticing the cow.
Little did Yunxi know that she had inserted the peach pit too low. Even with her neck stretched out, she couldn't reach the piece of peach flesh. She tentatively stretched her head forward again, but before she knew it, she was bumped by the other bison following behind her. The bison in front slipped and instantly fell into the trap.
Yunxi thought the speed was too slow. When the other bison came to the edge of the trap and wanted to test it, she used the ripening vines on the side to pull them down.
The vines can't bind them, but you can pull them into the trap when they're not looking.
What troubled Yunxi the most was that the bison hadn't died after falling in, and the trap wasn't deep enough; it could be filled with at most three bison.
Don't be fooled by the fact that three bison may seem like a small number; they are quite heavy, each weighing around one or two thousand pounds. Getting three is already considered very good.
After all, there are five or six thousand catties of meat in total, enough to feed me for a long time.
After taking down the three bison, he used vines to pull up the piece of peach flesh, quickly brought it to the edge of Yunxi, and put it directly into his spatial storage.
After the peach flesh disappeared, the bison that had been lured there instantly regained their senses.
It kept bellowing at the three bison below the trap. After pausing for a long time, seeing that its three companions were indeed unable to climb up, it finally left reluctantly.
After the bison left, Yunxi quickly went to the trap. Seeing the three bison lying there, she slowly lowered herself down with the dagger wrapped in vines in her hand, aiming to cut their necks.
Since they were powerless to resist and the dagger was sharp enough, it instantly severed their necks.
Looking at the splattered blood, it's a bit of a pity. I wonder if this snow can be used to make Mao Xue Wang (a spicy Sichuan dish)?
Thinking about the blood of those animals in the space, it didn't seem so painful anymore. After the three bison died, he quickly put them into the space.
Seeing the large pool of blood at the bottom of the trap, they poured all the soil they had collected from digging the trap back in, instantly covering the bloodstains and eliminating the smell of blood.
After catching three bison, Yunxi changed direction, and by sheer coincidence, she saw the same herd of bison again.
Yunxi originally didn't want to bother with them anymore, but since they were offered to her, it would feel like a waste to refuse them.
