Chapter 168: Hunting in the Mountains
After a busy day, they finally tidied up the room.
Su Heng looked at the bare kang and then remembered that she had not yet taken the luggage that the tractor had taken back to the brigade.
Then he shouted out the window: "Lu Mingchuan, go get your luggage!"
As she spoke, she pushed out her bicycle and went with him to transport the goods.
I was so busy that I didn’t have lunch until one or two o’clock in the afternoon.
Su Heng was so tired that her hands and feet were sore, but just as she was about to use her supernatural power to repair herself, the supernatural power in her body started to work on its own.
Speaking of which, her abilities seemed to have undergone new changes.
Ever since she gave birth to the child, her supernatural power automatically helped her to recover. From then on, whenever she felt unwell, her supernatural power would automatically start to work and help her adjust her condition in time.
This included the time when she accidentally cut her hand because the knife was too slippery while cutting vegetables, but the wound had healed before she even started.
Su Heng was very surprised by this change. With this healing speed, she was almost invulnerable to swords and guns.
But she has never experienced a fatal injury, so it is better not to be too confident.
But overall, it was worth it for her to have this child, and her suffering was not in vain.
Qiuqiu is also very cute. Su Heng went over to pick him up, and he fell asleep obediently in the cradle.
He is almost five months old now and has grown a lot. Children really change every day.
But the two cotton-padded jackets Su Heng had made before still couldn’t fit her. She was inexperienced and made them too big.
So this time I specially bought cotton and cloth, and in the afternoon I excitedly took out the sewing machine to make a red cotton-padded jacket for Qiuqiu for the New Year.
However, their family had not yet packed up their New Year's supplies, so Wen Shu took over the clothes as soon as they had started making them.
Su Heng wrapped herself tightly and went up the mountain with Lu Mingchuan.
Each of them carried a large backpack, and it seemed that they were full of confidence in bringing back a large amount of goods.
As a result, when Su Heng reached the foot of the mountain, he stepped into a big hole.
"The snow is too deep this year. At our speed, can we still catch the pheasants?"
Lu Mingchuan was very calm. He didn't even bring any tools with him. He chuckled and said, "No need to chase. Today, it's up to you to take action. There's no one in the mountains anyway."
People were busy planting and picking vegetables in the greenhouse, and even when they chopped firewood, they did so in the forest at the foot of the mountain.
Movement is restricted up here, so no one will come.
"Just wait, I'll show you my skills in a moment."
But before he could finish his words, he walked too fast and his feet sank too deep into the snow, almost stumbling.
Lu Mingchuan quickly supported her, and Su Heng coughed tactically.
"The ground is a bit slippery here."
"Well, walk slowly, don't rush."
The snow-covered mountain road was really difficult to walk on, the snow was above the knees.
The trees are covered with icicles. From a distance, the transparent icicles hanging on the treetops reflect white light in the sun, like clusters of branches and leaves made of snow.
Occasionally, when he accidentally bumped into a tree trunk, snow would fall. Fortunately, Su Heng covered herself tightly and wore a hat on her head.
Otherwise, it will get cold all over your body if it falls on your neck.
The two of them walked for a long time but were still on the outskirts of the mountain. Su Heng spread out her special ability and was surprised to find that her perception range had also expanded by 100 meters.
Sensing movement in the southwest direction, she quickly pulled Lu Mingchuan over there.
It seems that there has been no human activity in the mountains for a long time, and animals have begun to show up here.
But when Su Heng rushed over, he found that they were a few fat little birds.
It has a round white chest and beautiful gray-blue back feathers, which is very cute.
The three little ones were standing on the branches, looking at the two of them curiously with their green eyes.
It's a wasted trip, you'll end up in jail forever.
Su Heng took out some corn from his pocket that he had prepared for catching pheasants and threw it on the ground for them to eat.
They had no guard at all and just jumped down and started eating.
Su Heng also took the opportunity to touch it twice.
Now that they were here, they continued exploring along this side.
Later, my luck improved and I found a nest of pheasants and pecked at them in the snow.
They were all caught in one fell swoop by Su Heng, and Lu Mingchuan followed behind to catch the pheasant.
The pheasants made frightened "clucking" sounds when they were about to face disaster, which seemed very lively in the silent forest.
Su Heng was just about to look somewhere else when she suddenly noticed a brown shadow running towards her from a distance.
How come there is something that is automatically delivered to your door?
She looked back curiously and saw a face with big ears and a silly look emerging from the woods behind her.
It turned out to be a silly roe deer.
"Look at it, it looks so stupid, it actually brought it up here on its own."
Su Heng laughed mercilessly, and seeing that the roe deer was still standing there in a daze, he reached out and patted its heart-shaped white-haired butt.
The silly roe deer finally reacted and ran away in a hop.
"Don't you like roe deer meat?" Lu Mingchuan asked suddenly.
"Ah?" Su Heng was confused.
"Roe deer meat is edible." Lu Mingchuan explained, thinking she didn't know because she had never eaten it.
Su Heng then realized that roe deer could be on the table now!
Protection will not begin until two thousand years later.
What did she do to drive away the food that was delivered to her door?
Fortunately, the roe deer didn't run far. When it heard Su Heng's exclamation, it stopped and looked at her blankly.
It looks like it really wants to be eaten.
So Su Heng didn't hesitate any longer. The vines broke through the ground and attacked like a roe deer. Soon, they tied up its legs and feet tightly.
"I didn't even react. Luckily it was so stupid that it didn't even know how to run away."
Lu Mingchuan put the pheasant in the backpack and went over to pick up the roe deer.
"This one is like this. It's the easiest to catch among the big guys."
Su Heng rubbed her hands happily. She didn't expect that she would have the chance to taste the roe deer.
"Is this meat delicious?" she asked curiously.
Lu Mingchuan nodded. He had eaten it once when he was a child. At that time, he could only eat meat a few times a year, so he was deeply impressed by the taste.
“The teriyaki is delicious.”
On the way, the two couldn't help but discuss how to eat roe deer.
When he got home, Wen Shu was surprised to see the roe deer.
However, Su Yue had hunted one before, so she knew how to deal with it. In the afternoon, she helped Lu Mingchuan prepare the roe deer.
The pheasants were lucky enough to survive a few more days in the cage.
Su Heng coaxed Qiuqiu to sleep in the house and came out, and saw that the roe deer meat had been divided.
Wen Shu also said that this meat can be made into jerky because it is all lean meat and is relatively dry.
"Mom, can you help me pickle some dried meat? The ones I made before don't taste as good as yours."
Wen Shu naturally agreed.
Su Heng picked a piece of pork tenderloin and prepared to braise it in the evening.
This meat has a gamey flavor like wild goat, and needs spices to remove the flavor.
She rinsed it to remove the blood foam, then cut it into pieces and stir-fried it.
Sprinkle a handful of dried chilies, Sichuan peppercorns, ginger and garlic to bring out the aroma, then add salt and a small amount of sugar to season. When it is almost fried, pour a layer of rice wine on it and start stewing.
Everyone’s cooking habits may be slightly different, but the way Su Heng cooks it, the roe deer meat really doesn’t have that strong smell.
There was only the aroma of meat filling the yard.
"Okay, let's eat!"
