The brown bear's neck was slashed by Yuan Shitou, and it quickly died.
After Xiaoxiao untied the rope, she climbed down the tree.
The two men loaded the brown bear onto the wheelbarrow, secured it tightly, and quickly drove away.
This wheelbarrow is really quite sturdy.
There was a large brown bear on top, and then a tiger.
It weighs at least two thousand pounds, yet it hasn't fallen apart.
It's truly admirable.
Yuan Shitou pulled from the front, while Xiao Xiao pushed from behind.
The two worked together seamlessly, glancing around every now and then to see if they were being watched by other wild animals.
He ran out of the woods in one breath.
The two caught their breath at the spot where they used to pick mushrooms.
They started running again, until they reached the seaside.
Both of them were exhausted.
I haven't recovered even after resting for a long time.
Yuan Shitou hugged Xiaoxiao tightly, his heart aching: "Xiaoxiao, are you exhausted? Were you scared?"
She shook her head slightly, too weak to even speak.
At this moment, she was tired, hungry, and thirsty.
She just wanted to open her mouth wide and have someone feed her.
I really don't want to move at all.
Yuan Shitou, being a man after all, rested for a while before reaching under the handlebars of the wheelbarrow and pulling out a sheepskin bag and a bundle of things.
The sheepskin bag contained water, and the other package contained the flatbread they had baked.
It was specifically for eating when hunting inside.
As soon as they entered, they encountered a tiger, followed by a brown bear.
The two were so hungry that their stomachs were practically sticking to their backs, and they hadn't even had a bite to eat yet.
The pancakes were already cold by now, but thankfully they hadn't spoiled.
Ignoring everything else, Xiao Xiao took the pancake that Yuan Shitou handed her.
"Awoo" means taking a bite.
They ate with great relish.
Afraid she would choke, Yuan Shitou quickly opened the sheepskin bag and gave her water.
After taking several bites of the pancake and drinking several sips of water, Xiao Xiao finally came back to life.
"Brother Stone, why aren't you eating? Aren't you hungry?"
Seeing that Yuan Yuan was still staring at her, she quickly asked.
Yuan Shitou asked worriedly, "Xiaoxiao, are you alright?"
Xiao Xiao suddenly realized: "I'm fine. What could be wrong? I'm just hungry."
I've eaten something now, and my energy's back. You should eat too.
Yuan Shitou then sat down and began to eat heartily.
He finished a palm-sized pancake in just a few bites.
Fortunately, Xiao Xiao knew that both of them had big appetites.
They also made a lot of pancakes.
The two of them wolfed down their food, each eating several pancakes.
It was as if they had finally come back to life.
After you've rested, they start setting up the tent.
Don't worry about whether there's prey or not.
Only by setting up the tent can we have a place to rest.
Yuan Shitou set up the tent, and Xiao Xiao went to collect a lot of wood from the surrounding area.
There are pieces of wood washed away everywhere here.
It's enough for them to use for many days.
Once the tents were set up, the fire was lit.
The little one started making food.
I'm not hungry yet, even though I just ate some pancakes.
But she wanted to use this time to prepare dinner.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
Yuan Shitou had already pulled the tiger over, and one of them was skinning it.
After Xiaoxiao finished cooking, she went to clean up a large pit.
They laid a thick layer of salt at the bottom of the pit.
After Yuan Shitou finished skinning the tiger, the two threw it into the pit.
Little Xiao then sprinkled a thick layer of salt on the tiger.
There was nothing they could do; there were only two of them.
We also need to deal with the brown bears; there's no time to process the tiger meat.
I had no choice but to salt it here first.
The two worked all night to skin the brown bear.
The two pieces of leather were also cleaned.
Its tiny eyes were almost closed, and it kept yawning.
Yuan Shitou told her to go and rest, but she refused.
In the end, Yuan Shitou forcefully pushed her into the tent.
She said she would rest for a while and then come out to relieve him.
There's so much meat here, it's impossible for both of them to rest, regardless of the fact that it's all meat.
Xiao Xiao felt that what he said made sense, so she went to sleep with peace of mind.
When she came out after her nap, it was already noon.
Quickly start a fire and cook.
Yuan Shitou had already skinned the bear and was cleaning the grease and fascia off the skin.
After dinner, it was Yuan Shitou's turn to rest.
Xiao Xiao cut the bear meat into small strips and placed them in the pit next to her.
She cleaned up this pit yesterday.
Yuan Shitou didn't sleep for long before getting up to help.
It took the two of them another day to process all the meat.
Taking advantage of the good weather, Xiao Xiao started drying the first batch of meat on the stones.
These stones are relatively clean.
It gets washed by seawater every night.
So there's absolutely no need to wash it again.
The two of them have been busy processing the meat these past two days and haven't paid any attention to the salt in the pit.
So the salt inside kept piling up.
If the pit hadn't been so deep, it might have been washed away by the tide.
Another day passed, and after the two finished drying the meat, they began to clean the salt out of the pit.
Because it contains a lot of salt, it also contains a lot of impurities.
After drying the meat each day, we start cleaning the impurities out of the salt.
When you take it back, you won't need to clean it again.
With so much meat, the two no longer thought about hunting.
Besides picking up stranded seafood, Xiao Xiao would sit aside and fish.
I don't know if it's because fish in the sea are easier to catch, or if I just had a bit of good luck.
Anyway, I get more than a dozen every day.
The weather by the sea is very changeable; sometimes the sun is so strong that it feels like your head is steaming.
Sometimes, as soon as it gets dark, a torrential downpour begins.
The first time it rained, it threw the two of them into a flurry of activity.
It almost washed all the meat away.
Later, Xiaoxiao spread out the oilcloth she had brought, ready at any time.
As soon as it got dark, the two of them quickly covered the meat.
This way, the meat won't be washed away.
There's no need to frantically prepare the meat.
Anyway, they brought a lot of tarpaulins this time.
There's more than enough meat for this.
Xiao Xiao has gotten several shades darker from the sun these past few days.
As for Yuan Shitou, he's already dark-skinned, and even if he gets tanned, he'll still look the same.
Sometimes Yuan Shitou would also go with Xiaoxiao to collect seafood and go fishing.
Anyway, the two of them were living a fairly comfortable life.
Now, we need to collect salt using our mobile phones.
They also need to dry the meat in the sun.
I definitely can't leave for a short period of time.
The two pieces of parchment have been packed away and can be used as blankets tonight.
Both bear bile and tiger bile were processed by Yuan Shitou using special methods.
Xiaoxiao doesn't understand any of this, nor does she want to learn.
Anyway, with Yuan Shitou around, she doesn't need to worry about anything.
He also collected the entire tiger skeleton.
Whether you take it back to sell or use it to make medicinal liquor, it's a good thing.
Xiao Xiao didn't want the bear skeleton, but Yuan Shitou didn't mind the trouble and kept it regardless of whether it was useful or not.
He even cleaned out the internal organs and preserved them with salt.
Even Xiao Xiao was somewhat impressed; Yuan Shitou was truly a good family man.
Whether it's useful or not, they all know to bring it home.
He wasn't like this before.
She doesn't care about her family at all.
If it weren't for her and Yuan's mother giving him several warnings and threats, they probably wouldn't have been able to change his mind.
