It's the tenth day.
Su Shuilin took the stone and added another line on the wall of the cave.
Heart can not help but anxious. If you can't get out of this forest, how can you live
I thought it was just a mountain forest, but it took six days to explore in six directions.
Seeing the two little wolf cubs "Xiao Chun" and "Xiao Xue" happily chasing and playful at his feet, Su Shuilin's eyes filled with a smile, fortunately they were there for company. Otherwise, how could I have endured so many ten days, either starved to death, frozen to death, or eaten by wild animals for a delicious meal.
Thinking of this, Su Shuilin came to the entrance of the cave. On the simple drying rack made of several thick branches, there were strings of dried meat hanging.
There was also a white tiger skin with leopard print enough to lie down on the bushes next to it.
Yes, it took Su Shuilin two days for the hanging-eyed white tiger that perished with the big wolf to completely separate its skin and flesh. Under the guidance of two wolf cubs, they found the closest water source to the cave—a clear stream that meanders through about 30 meters away. After the tiger skin is washed clean, it is dried on the bushes.
After a week of drying, the tiger skin has gradually shrunk and become dry and silky. Thinking of sleeping on such a warm and silky white tiger skin at night instead of being pricked by those dry branches and leaves, Su Shuilin couldn't help but corner his mouth. lightly.
Gently rubbing his hands that were no longer tender, the scars on them that had been increased due to hard work, he sighed for a while: I'm not sure if I can get out of this forest, let alone embroidering with embroidery needles. Or plan for a living.
Fortunately, before the age of eight, I played around with my cousin who was four years older at my grandmother's house, and knew some secrets of barbecue. In addition to the idle books I read in addition to embroidery, they told about the local customs and specialties of various places. Su Shuilin thought of a lot of coping measures to survive when dealing with the white tiger.

She was able to peel off the tiger meat from the tiger skin, thanks to the gorgeous and delicate dagger in her bag, which was now tied to her calf with hemp ropes woven with withered vines, so she could use it to protect herself from any accident when she was looking around.
Unexpectedly, this short dagger, which she recognized as a gorgeous decoration, could be so sharp, and the weapon that cut iron like mud was no more than that.
Thanks to it, it didn't take much effort to cut the tiger meat by myself. Of course, because of my unfamiliar craftsmanship, I cut the skin of my hand several times, and even cut it too deep once and bleeds continuously. When I washed my hands in the puddle under the stalactites, I found that the crystal green and transparent liquid could quickly stop the bleeding. Maybe Su Shuilin had already fainted again due to excessive blood loss.
The crystal green and transparent liquid is simply nectar juice. Look at his body and bones, which have been nourished by a few drops of jade liquid, and are no longer as weak as they used to be.
Hehe, Su Shuilin couldn't help snickering again. Although he was frustrated when he came to this world inexplicably at first, after picking up two little wolf cubs and having a place to rest, he was even lucky enough to discover such a miracle. After the baby, Su Shuilin has calmed down.
There is an old saying: As soon as it comes, it is safe. Since God didn't let himself die in a hurry, but changed the environment to continue to survive, then do your best to live a good life. Presumably mother and eldest brother know, they will be relieved, the daughter did not give up on herself, but worked hard to live on her own.
As for the remaining crystal green liquid, it must be used sparingly. It is estimated that there are no more than two teaspoons. It must not be used easily before deciding to leave the forest. Thinking of going out of the forest, Su Shuilin decided to spend some time, counting the dried tiger meat on the shelf, and estimated that it would last for another ten days or half a month.
At that time, "Xiao Chun" and "Xiao Xue" should also be bigger and stronger, enough to follow them further. I prepared more food for myself. When I was exploring the way out a few days ago, I found a lot of wild fruits. If you look at the scars that the birds have pecked, they must not be poisonous.
I will go to explore it carefully tomorrow. If there are fresh fruits to eat, then I will be happy. These days, it's either water or dried meat. If I'm really hungry, I don't want to eat it at all.

Although the tiger meat is very fragrant after roasting, it is not seasoned with honey and salt, so I can't eat a few mouthfuls at all. Seeing the two little wolf cubs eating happily, Su Shui turned around speechlessly, ready to find some wild sour fruits that could be used as seasonings. It is best to find the kind of salty fruit described in Exotics that can replace salt in the wild. Su Shuilin exerts the most powerful memory recovery ability, and strives to integrate the knowledge he has seen before into his current life.
…
"Xiaochun, Xiaoxue?" Su Shuilin went into the hole with the dew, and woke up the two little wolf cubs who were sleeping, with joy on their fair little face.
"Woooo", the two little wolf cubs opened their hazy eyes and saw that it was Su Shuilin, they arched towards her slightly cool body, and then closed their eyes again and continued to enjoy the good sleep in the morning.
Su Shui smiled and gently placed them on the tiger skin, letting them continue to sleep.
She came to the puddle under the stalactite and took out the few fruits that made her smile.
Yes, these seemingly unremarkable dried green fruits are the salty fruits described in Exotics, which can replace the salty fruits used in salt.
She tasted it carefully when she found it, and it was indeed salty, but slightly bitter. It must have been handled according to the method described in the foreign body journal. Su Shuilin couldn't help but feel the joy in his heart, hummed the soft Suzhou tune softly, and dealt with these few fruits. Peel off their skins, carefully pick out the cores with a dagger, and place the pulps one by one into a stone bowl.
The so-called stone bowl is just a piece of stone similar to a notched tile, which can hold a small bowl of water. She found it by the creek and brought it back. She found two in total, and one gave two. For wolf cubs. Also found is a stone that resembles a crock pot, which can be placed on a fire and used to make broth.
As for the spoon and chopsticks, she carved it out of a dagger and a tougher piece of wood. Although it took several days, the effect was very good. On the handle of the spoon, she even used a dagger when she had nothing to do. Some flower and grass patterns are carved, and the chopsticks are made of two wooden chopsticks ranging from thin to thick, and a mushroom-shaped round head is carved on the top of the relatively thickest chopsticks, which looks very artistic.

It's just that the dagger is obviously not carved with an embroidery needle. It is not easy to embroider on cotton and silk. It took Su Shuilin several early mornings to practice and waste a lot of wood, and then she made the two she uses now. In her eyes, it is still perfect. Wood art, the so-called one-time rebirth and two-time-cooking, is just like this.
Use a wooden spoon to mash the savory fruit very finely, there are five savory fruits in total, and the peeled pulp only occupies half of the bottom of the stone bowl. Su Shuilin thought about it. If the method of removing the astringency is successful, he will bring a rattan basket to pick it. Well, there should be more than a hundred fruits from that savory fruit bush. Perhaps because this fruit tastes really bad, it avoids being eaten by birds and beasts.
Su Shuilin put the pulp in the stone bowl on the largest stalactite, and after drying it for half an hour, squeezed out the juice from the sour berries he found a few days ago and stirred it into it. This is the simplest and most practical method mentioned in the foreign body journal. However, she has not yet found the sour berries with orange-red juice described in this book, but has found a small skinless fruit similar to mulberry that tastes extremely sour.
I picked some juice with the tip of my chopsticks and put it on the tip of my tongue, "smacking it", my eyes lit up instantly, and there was really no bitter taste. It tastes sour and salty, enough to be used as a seasoning by itself. Well, today I can finally simmer a pot of sour and salty rather than bland broth.
Seeing that the two little wolf cubs were still sleeping soundly, they stopped calling them. They brought a gourd of clear water and an idyllic rattan basket on their shoulders and decided to go out to pick a lot of sour and salty berries. . Stop by the stream to see if the wild strawberries are edible.
Feeling the temperature in the woods, it should be almost May, the flowers and bones among the branches and bushes have gradually bloomed into buds, and the freshly fashioned and green wild strawberries are already red. Counting the days, it has been a month since I descended into this forest for no reason.
The clear creek flowed along the uneven terrain, and Su Shuilin left the rattan basket and gourd in his hands on a relatively flat rock beside the stream, while he rolled up his trousers and took off his feet. Putting on the pair of embroidered shoes with barely visible luster, she stretched her white and small feet into the stream and gently slid.
Phew, let out a sigh of relief, in the morning of May, the water in the stream was still very cold. However, after nourishing with a few drops of crystal green liquid, the physique of this body is getting better and better. Since these days, Su Shuilin has long been accustomed to soaking his feet in the stream once a day. If you can't take a bath, soaking your feet can also make up for the regret.
He took out the sandalwood comb in his arms, gently straightened the black silk over his shoulders, and casually tied two braids.
Back in the Su family, those beautiful, gentle but complicated buns were all combed by the maids. Thinking about myself at that time, apart from the embroidery after cleaning my hands and burning incense, where did I need to do these heavy tasks every day.
When I came back to my senses, the wrinkled silk tunic, that gorgeous blouse had long since been washed away by myself, and even though I had a cold with that gorgeous and embellished blouse, as the weather turned colder in the future. , If you still can't get out of this forest, you also need to use it for winter. Although I don't know how cold the winter here is, and whether the jacket alone is enough to withstand the cold, it's better than nothing.
Today's Su Shuilin is no longer the eldest granddaughter of the Su family who does not touch the spring water with ten fingers.
Thinking of this, the corners of Su Shui's lips curved slightly. In fact, today's day is not bad, at least you don't need to be alarmed at every step to avoid touching the complicated rules of the big family, and you don't need to answer the phone all day long. Trained in the charm and restraint that every lady should have. If the old man of the Su family and his father knew that they were so disheveled and took off their shoes, what kind of expressions would they have
Hehe, Su Shuilin held back his smile with some shame. It was really inappropriate. Surviving in the wild for more than a month has made his mind wild. Thinking that her appearance is strict but actually loves her mother like her eldest brother, Su Shuilin can't help but feel distressed for a while: Mother, her daughter is still alive in a different environment, and she will work hard to live. You must not hurt yourself and your soul for your daughter.
