"Anlan, you stay at the shelter. I'll take Dahei out to hunt and prepare some food for the monkeys."
Lu Fan walked to An Lan's side and spoke softly.
"Okay, you must be very careful."
An Lan looked concerned and her eyes were full of worry. She repeatedly urged, "Go and come back soon. I'll be waiting for you."
Lu Fan slung his bow and arrows over his shoulder and, with Da Hei looking spirited, stepped into the mysterious forest.
Big Black was as excited as a mischievous child, running happily ahead, its nose constantly sniffing, not missing any trace of its prey's scent.
Every subtle flavor is like an enticing invitation, leading it to seek out delicious prey.
"Big Black, we're counting on you today. We have to catch some juicy prey."
Lu Fan gently patted Dahei's head and said with a smile, his trusting eyes seeming to say, "I believe in you, there won't be any problem!"
Big Black seemed to understand Lu Fan's words perfectly, and wagged its thick tail vigorously as if in response: "Leave it to me, don't worry!"
Then it quickened its pace, like a black lightning bolt, darting swiftly through the dense forest.
A moment later, Big Black suddenly stopped, sniffing the ground intensely, its tail held high, and barked excitedly a few times.
The urgent cry seemed to say, "Master, come quick, I've spotted my target!"
"Have you spotted the target?"
Lu Fan immediately became alert, slowing his pace and gradually approaching while gripping his bow and arrow tightly, his fingers tightening slightly, ready to fire at any moment.
[A flock of sheep spotted ahead]
Dahei led Lu Fan closer quietly, and through the dense grass, they saw a flock of sheep grazing leisurely.
Some of the sheep were focused on grazing, while others were nuzzling each other affectionately, completely unaware that danger was approaching step by step.
"Wow, so many sheep! We're sure everyone can eat their fill today!" Lu Fan said excitedly in a low voice, unable to hide his joy.
He carefully observed the flock and found two plump goats among them, which were exactly what he wanted.
He pointed to one of them and whispered to Big Black, "Big Black, keep an eye on that one, and don't let it get away."
Big Blackheart understood and quietly circled around to one side of the sheep, poised to strike at any moment.
Lu Fan drew his bow to its fullest extent and steadily aimed at another goat.
With a "whoosh," the arrow, like a black lightning bolt, pierced the air and shot straight toward the target.
Before the goat could react, it was shot and fell to the ground.
The sheep panicked and scattered in all directions.
Seeing its opportunity, Big Black darted out like an arrow and bit the goat it had been eyeing.
"Well done, Big Black!" Lu Fan ran over excitedly, looking at the two fat goats that had been captured, his heart filled with joy and a sense of accomplishment.
"Haha, the monkeys are in for a treat now."
Lu Fan patted Dahei's head again and praised, "Let's go back!"

[Healthy Goat 2*]
When Lu Fan and Da Hei dragged the two fat goats back to the shelter, it was already evening.
The sunset on the horizon was like a magnificent painting, casting a warm glow over the entire shelter.
Seeing them return laden with their catch, An Lan exclaimed in surprise and delight, "Wow, you guys are really amazing! You actually caught two sheep!"
"Of course, thanks to Big Black."
Lu Fan said with a smile, his face beaming with pride, "Tonight we'll roast a whole lamb and treat everyone to a good meal."
Without further ado, Lu Fan and An Lan immediately began processing the mutton.
They cut the mutton into large chunks, skewered them with branches, and placed them over the campfire.
As the mutton roasted over the flames, it gradually turned golden brown, with the fat sizzling and dripping onto the campfire, creating beautiful sparks and releasing an enticing aroma that made one's mouth water.
At this time, the monkeys also finished their day's work.
Smelling the aroma of roasted meat, they chattered excitedly and gathered around, their eyes fixed on the mutton on the campfire, squeaking incessantly as if to say, "It smells so good! When can we eat it?"
"Don't rush, don't rush, it'll be ready soon." Lu Fan said to the monkeys with a smile, his tone as if he were coaxing a group of adorable children.
Soon, the lamb was cooked. Lu Fan distributed the cooked lamb to everyone.
The monkeys eagerly took the mutton and began to eat it with great relish, occasionally letting out satisfied "squeaks".
They ate while wiping their mouths with their paws, which looked very cute.
The live stream room was also bustling with activity.
"This kind of life is worse than that of a monkey."
"Although Lu Fan is ruthless, he still gives you all the benefits you're entitled to. Unlike our boss, who just makes empty promises."
"Hehe, we're all monkeys."
"The person upstairs has gone mad."
"He's not crazy, he's just become lucid."
Big Horn and Lightning were also rewarded with fresh grass, which they chewed leisurely, occasionally looking up at the commotion, as if they too were infected by the joyful atmosphere.
Big Black lay to the side, munching on its share of mutton, its mouth dripping with oil, occasionally letting out a satisfied burp.
"Thank you so much everyone today. Without you, our house construction wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
Lu Fan held up a piece of roasted meat and addressed everyone, his eyes filled with gratitude.
The monkeys seemed to understand, and they all raised the roasted meat in their hands, squeaking as if in response to Lu Fan: "You're welcome, we're happy to be of help too."
An Lan looked at the lively scene and a happy smile appeared on her face.
At this moment, all the fatigue and hardship vanished, leaving only warmth and joy.
By the time we finished eating the barbecue, it was completely dark.
The stars twinkled in the sky, like countless eyes curiously gazing at this joyful place.
The monkeys returned to their den with satisfaction, while Lu Fan and An Lan began to tidy up the area.
After they finished tidying up, the two sat down by the campfire and drank tea.
The warm firelight illuminated their faces, making them look especially warm.
"I just counted them, there are about four or five thousand bricks. As long as it doesn't rain in the next couple of days, they should be dry by now," Lu Fan said, taking a sip of tea, his tone filled with anticipation.
Four or five thousand bricks would be enough for them to build a fairly large house.
Thinking of his future home, Lu Fan's eyes shone with hope.
Seeing Lu Fan's happy expression, An Lan couldn't help but smile as well: "Then we need to hurry up and build the brick kiln so we can start firing the bricks."
"Yes, I'll get it done tomorrow." Lu Fan nodded firmly, full of confidence in the future.
In this wilderness, they are taking steps towards a better life.
