Chapter 273
Chu Yang got up at dawn.
After breakfast, he picked up his axe and put on his clogs and went to the nearby jungle.
Like the last time he made the door, he found some hard tree trunks and thumb-thick vines.
He also picked up some fallen feathers from birds.
The tree trunk is a bit like ironwood, not very thick but very hard.
Chu Yang sharpened the folding dagger and tied it firmly to one end of the tree trunk with vines.
The spear is ready!
Although it is simple, Chu Yang has the strength to penetrate the beast.
Ironwood is very heavy, and it is not easy to use it easily, but Chu Yang's muscles are not just for looks.
He picked up the spear and tried it, and it was very smooth.
When he was in college, in order to earn tuition, he worked in a coal yard during the summer vacation, responsible for weaving coal baskets.
Unexpectedly, his skills came in handy at this moment.
He also made a rattan shield and a basket with rattan.
The rattan shield is one meter in diameter and has an arc-shaped surface, which can disperse the enemy's power.
The rattan shield is simple to make, has good defensive effect, and is very light.
Xia Ruoyan and Yoko stood by to help him, hand him tools, and wipe his sweat.
Finally, he made a sled for pulling goods with logs and rattan.
After finishing these, the sun had risen.
"Chu Yang, you are great, you are really a little genius in handmade things!"
Looking at these rough but practical things, Xia Ruoyan praised them.
Yoko couldn't put down the basket, "I can collect supplies with this in the future!"
The two clever women made two straps with the remaining animal skins.
In order to save time, Chu Yang went to the rain forest alone.
Entering the rain forest, the sunlight immediately turned into mottled beams of light.
Chu Yang was alert and ready to fight at any time.
He held a spear in his left hand, a shovel in his right hand, a samurai sword and a rattan shield slung over his shoulders, and a basket on his back.
"The only thing missing is a bow and arrow, let's do it when we get back!"
He left his hunting rifle and axe at home and taught the women how to use guns.
Chu Yang hoped to encounter some wild animals at this moment to try out the effects of his spear and rattan shield.
But there was no danger until the stream.
But he still squatted aside and observed quietly to prevent any lurking guys.
Chu Yang didn't jump into the rushing stream until he was sure that there was nothing else. The body of the prey was still pressed by the stones, intact!
"I guess the stream washed away the smell."
He moved the stones one by one.
The sun rose higher and higher, and it was already extremely hot at this moment.
Chu Yang was sweating all over, but looking at the trophy, he didn't care about the heat.
He directly dug his hand into the crack on the back of the giant crocodile, turned it over with force, and then inserted the samurai sword to separate the skin and flesh.
Blood gushed out.
Suddenly!
The crocodile moved suddenly, and Chu Yang was frightened.
He quickly smashed its head with a stone, and then he felt relieved.
He had never eaten crocodile meat, and he was not very interested in it.
He was attracted by the crocodile skin and tendons.
After that, he used the same method to peel off the giant wild boar skin, which took a lot of effort.
The wild boar skin was placed on the sled, and then the wild boar meat was cut into pieces and stacked on it.
The sled was full, and Chu Yang tied the spoils with vines, and the basket was also full of meat.
Despite this, there was still a lot of meat left.
"It seems that at least three more times are needed!"
He draped the crocodile skin on his body to prevent the vines of the sled from sinking into the meat.
Fortunately, the road was easy to walk along, without too many potholes.
Chu Yang was also very satisfied with the sled.
"How can I be so smart!" He boasted proudly.
On the way back, Chu Yang felt that what he had pulled was more precious than gold!
Although he was already a billionaire, the satisfaction at this moment was beyond measure.
However, it was still quite dangerous to haul so much fresh meat in the dense forest.
Chu Yang sped up, listened carefully, and raised his vigilance.
Fortunately, the journey was smooth.
When he reached the top of the waterfall, Chu Yang threw the meat down piece by piece.
Hearing the noise, the women came running with hunting rifles and axes.
When they saw that it was Chu Yang, they were ecstatic.
They helped to move the meat to the rocks to expose it to the sun, and Chu Yang continued to return.
On the second trip, they encountered a lynx.
It followed all the way, wanting to take the meat, but not daring to get close...
Until the last trip, Chu Yang finally brought all the meat back.
Although the weather in the tropical rainforest is changeable, they have not encountered heavy rain in the past few days, which is fortunate.
Chu Yang climbed down the waterfall and moved the meat to the rocks.
The streamside was already covered with meat.
It was already noon.
When Yoko heard that the crocodile meat was not pulled, she immediately said, "Ah, crocodile meat is a low-fat, low-cholesterol delicacy, and it is extremely delicious when grilled!"
"Crocodile meat is from wild animals...." Xia Ruoyan said.
But soon she laughed at herself.
Aren't the bear meat and wild boar meat we ate these days also wild animals?
Although it is recommended not to eat wild game, the environment at the moment is different and cannot be compared.
"Well, I have also heard that crocodile meat is delicious. How about we go and get some? Otherwise it's too wasteful!" Xia Ruoyan agreed.
Chu Yang laughed. He really knows how to live...
This time, Chu Yang took them to the stream to move meat.
But only some lean meat was selected.
On the way back, Chu Yang asked the two to sit on the sled and then ran wildly.
The two women hugged each other tightly and laughed.
"It's so fun, just as exciting as pulling a sled in the snow! "Xia Ruoyan said happily.
After returning to the camp, they began to prepare lunch.
This meal was fresh crocodile meat, which was sliced thinly and pasted on the rocks of the campfire.
Then it was brushed with ground pepper, cumin powder and salt, and soon smoke came out with a sizzling aroma.
Chu Yang tasted it and it was indeed delicious.
After the meal, Chu Yang made bows and arrows without taking a nap.
The crocodile tendons had been cooked in boiling water and used as bowstrings.
He also found wild broad-leaf bamboo in the nearby jungle and cut two of them.
Although bamboo is tough, it must be stacked with multiple pieces of bamboo to have strong pulling force.
Chu Yang tried countless times and finally made the bow body with three pieces of bamboo.
The woman helped to twist the rattan into ropes, and Chu Yang used them to tie the bamboo pieces tightly.
The rest was the arrows.
He picked He selected more than twenty slender branches and spent a whole afternoon sharpening them.
Split the notch in the tail of the arrow and insert the feather.
Perfect!
In ancient times, the Canglong Kingdom used the method of stacking bamboo pieces to make bows and crossbows.
Later, they used the more resilient mulberry wood to make recurve bows.
Chu Yang couldn't make a recurve bow, so he could only make this longbow in this way.
The smell of dinner was fragrant, and Chu Yang didn't care about eating. He took out the arrows to test!
Draw the arrow, put the bow!
The longbow was fully drawn, and the bowstring was loosened.
The sound of breaking through the air was whistling, and the arrow only shot quickly to the pine tree in front.
He practiced for a while, looking for the feel and accuracy.
It wasn't until the two women took turns urging him that he put down the bow and arrow to eat.
Chu Yang talked about the next plan while eating.
Build fortifications.
"Fortifications? Aren't the wooden doors already built? "
In the eyes of the two women, building a wooden door was considered a defensive fortification.
This was far from what Chu Yang had imagined...
