The next day, Meng Sheng was still in a coma and seemed to hear someone calling him.
He got up drowsily and went to the entrance of the cave to have a look. Early in the morning, Zhong Yang was outside his cave with his stone tools, checking the thylacine that he hadn't dragged into the cave last night.
"Why are you so early?"
Zhong Yang raised his head when he heard his voice: "What time is this, you just woke up just now."
"By the way, where did the thylacine come from?"
"I came here last night to eat my pheasant, but I was beaten to death."
Zhong Yang said: "Then you take the skinned skin into the cave, what if someone else takes it away?"
Meng Sheng didn't care much and said, "Just take it away."
"You man, others couldn't hunt you even if they wanted to hunt, but you are so good that you threw it outside the cave." Zhong Yang pulled out his stone tool: "It's a mess, you don't know how many people in the tribe are starved of food and die?" Starve to death, I'll peel it off with you."
Meng Sheng didn't stop him either. Taking advantage of his time to mess with the thylacine, he made a fire to heat up the leftover meat from yesterday's meal.
The oil and water in the pot had just melted, and Zhong Yang, who was nimble in his hands and feet, came in with the tidied thylacine: "Look, I'm a little skinny, but I can still eat a few meals."
"It doesn't taste good judging from the quality of the meat. If you like it, you can take it back."
Zhong Yang tied up the thylacine with palm leaves and hung it on the cave wall, and sat down next to him: "If you don't want it, you can also distribute it to the weak in the tribe."
"It's also reasonable, then share it with them when you have the same food." As he said, Meng Sheng fished out a piece of meat from the pot, put it on a wooden stick, and handed it to Zhong Yang: "Come on, don't you?" ?”
"I came here after breakfast."
Meng Sheng clicked his tongue, and took back the meat that was almost poked in front of Zhong Yang's nose. When he opened his mouth to eat, Zhong Yang suddenly said, "Wait!"
"What?" Meng Sheng gave him a sideways look.
Zhong Yang rubbed his hands, laughed and said, "It smells pretty good."
"There are so many things to do!" He stuffed the meat into his mouth at once.
Zhong Yang hurriedly took the meat, frowned and chewed a couple of mouthfuls: "This tastes good!"
Meng Sheng shook his head helplessly. It’s alright for some males to have duplicity, but their appetites are surprisingly big. There wasn’t much meat left in the pot, so he ate a piece. Nian had never eaten salt-boiled meat in Zhongyang before, so he just ate it. Let him eat more.
Then Zhong Yang drank five bowls of broth after eating the meat, feeling a little full, and full of surprise: "Do you eat such a small amount of food in one meal? Are you full with five or six catties of meat?"
Meng Sheng rubbed his brows, and he punched Zhong Yang's bulging chest muscles: "You really didn't waste so much food with your size."
"Of course a powerful male eats a lot, it's strange for you, okay?"
Zhong Yang stood up, stretched his muscles and bones in satisfaction, and then remembered something: "By the way, I came to find you to hunt. You don't want to hoard prey, so you can go to the trade fair to exchange things!"
"It's ready to go hunting."
"Many males and females hunt together. It's much safer this way, and they can take care of each other. I haven't found a suitable teammate before. Last time I cooperated with you tacitly. I will hunt with you in the future. Will it work?" Zhong Yang hooked Meng Sheng's shoulders and suggested enthusiastically.
Meng Sheng raised his eyebrows: "You said that hunting together can have sub-female?"
"Yes! Is it strange?"
Meng Sheng suddenly laughed: "It's fine if you're not surprised, let's go hunting."
He carried his machete on his back. Since Zhong Yang wanted to be his long-term teammate, there was no way he could keep his weapon hidden, so he just held it openly.
After the two came out of the cave, Meng Sheng gave Zhong Yang a bunch of bones with bits of minced meat on them: "Go and feed me the chickens, and I'll water my newly planted sour fruits."
Zhong Yang took the bones and threw them into the chicken coop according to his words. After playing with the pheasants for a while, he saw Meng Sheng watering a few young saplings and said, "If you want to plant them, plant some berries. This kind of fruit is very special. Sour, and this, this can't be named, and the taste is very strange."
"What do you know?" Meng Sheng argued.
"It's done, let's go."
Meng Sheng led the way and headed straight for Qiu Juan's cave. After walking for a while, Zhong Yang cooed, "This is a place where tribesmen live, so where can we hunt for anything!"
"I know."
He ignored Zhong Yang and continued walking, and soon he arrived outside Qiu Juan's cave. He stood outside and shouted twice: "Qiu Juan! Are you up yet?"
As soon as the words fell, Ya Nu hurried out of the cave, looking energetic, she must have been up for a long time.
"Going hunting? Come with us."
Hearing that it was hunting, Qiu Juan was overjoyed: "Okay! I haven't gone hunting for a long time, wait for me for a while, I'll go to the cave to get a weapon, and then tell my mother."
Meng Sheng raised the corners of his lips and waved to him: "Go quickly."
Zhong Yang clasped his arms around his chest: "I said why did I come this way, so I came to call Qiu Juan."
Meng Sheng's face was not flushed and his heart was not beating: "Didn't you say that there must be a sub-female in a company?"
"I didn't say that there must be subfemale companions, I just said that it's not surprising to have subfemale companions."
The two were arguing about this matter, Qiu Juan tidied up quickly, followed by Aunt Luo.
Qiu Juan tilted his head: "What are you talking about?"
Zhong Yang quickly shook his head: "It's nothing, it's a pleasure to be with you."
Qiu Juan said excitedly: "I really haven't hunted with Brother Zhongyang yet."
Meng Sheng on the side was being pulled by Luo to make him look at Qiu Juan. Of course, Luo didn't need to talk about it. Just after the two of them finished talking, Meng Sheng heard Qiu Juan and Zhong Yang talking.
He said out of nowhere: "Didn't you also hunt with me?"
Qiu Juan froze for a moment: "Yes."
Zhong Yang laughed loudly for no reason, and put one hand on Meng Sheng's shoulder: "Let's go. Aunt Luo, we are leaving. Don't worry about Qiu Juan, we will take good care of him."
"Thank you both."
With the sub-female together, the two males slowed down tacitly. Zhong Yang proposed to hunt at the place where the Ewing was hunted last time. There are very few people hunting there.
"That part is more dangerous." Meng Sheng said suspiciously.
Qiu Juan echoed Zhong Yang's opinion: "I've only been there twice, so let's go there."
Seeing Meng Sheng's frowning eyebrows, he said again: "Don't worry, I won't hold back."
Although his feet are not fully intact, his desire to hunt has long made him forget the discomfort under his feet. In the past, he either went hunting by himself or with Kongjia. This was the first time he hunted with two powerful males. Cherish this opportunity very much.
"I did not mean that."
Zhong Yang smiled and said: "Qiu Juan agreed, let's go, if you encounter a powerful beast later, let Qiu Juan hide."
The two had no choice but to sing together, Meng Sheng had no choice but to follow everyone's opinions.
The three of them arrived at their destination after crossing the woods with a lot of moss and sticky on the side. Zhong Yang told him that because there are often large beasts haunting this forest, everyone called this forest Forest of Beasts.
After entering the forest, everyone became vigilant. Meng Sheng asked Qiu Juan to walk behind the two of them to hunt. Most of the time, he had to rely on luck. He didn't wait for the prey to find him, but took the initiative to find the prey.
Both Zhong Yang and Qiu Juan had rich experience in hunting. One was looking for signs of prey if the wild fruits falling from the trees were eaten, and the other was looking for footprints left on the ground.
Meng Sheng, on the other hand, had nothing to do, either to look at the weeds or touch the wild plants.
Suddenly there was a rustling sound, and a fat pheasant fluttered through the grass.
"pheasant!"
Zhong Yang hurriedly chased after it, and threw the stone tool over with all his strength. The pheasant screamed out in fright, but was not hurt by the stone tool.
"This pheasant is really cunning." Zhong Yang was very dissatisfied with the stone implement.
Qiu Juan tiptoed towards the pheasant, and he held up his stone tool: "Let me try it."
"The pheasant has been frightened, I'm afraid it's not good..." Meng Sheng hadn't finished speaking when he saw the stone tool flying towards the pheasant, and the pheasant that was running around twisted and fell to the ground. Somersault, the stone tool has been stably stuck on its back.
Meng Sheng and Zhong Yang were stunned at the same time, such precision!
"Qiu Juan, you are too powerful!"
"I'm not as strong as the male, so I can only hunt small prey by practicing precision." Qiu Juan was a little embarrassed by the compliments of the two, and hurried to get back his weapon and pheasant.
Meng Sheng chuckled. Ya females who are serious about hunting are really charming.
Zhong Yang followed Qiu Juan and saw the lifeless pheasant on the ground from a distance, jokingly said, "Oh, Qiu Juan, you stabbed Meng Sheng's heart to death!"
Qiu Juan picked up the prey and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"Meng Sheng really likes raising chickens. He even asked me to feed the hens in his coop this morning!"
Qiu Juan looked at Meng Sheng in disbelief: "Do you really like raising chickens?"
Meng Sheng didn't deny it either, and nodded.
"That's really embarrassing." Qiu Juan looked at the fat pheasant in his hand apologetically, and suddenly laughed again: "This is only a male, it cannot hatch eggs!"
Meng Sheng was amused by his surprise.
Qiu Juan was very happy to know his hobbies. Last time he picked orchids for himself on the cliff, he didn't know how to repay him. Now he patted his chest and promised: "I know now that you like raising chickens. Next time you meet pheasants, you will definitely I'll give you the live one."
"Then I thank you in advance."
Zhong Yang was dissatisfied when he heard it: "Didn't you tell me to catch you?"
"Give them all to me, the chicken coop will be big enough to raise."
The three of them were talking and laughing, completely oblivious to the approaching footsteps, and when they noticed a large beast approaching, the beast had already stretched out its fangs behind Qiu Juan.
"Qiu Juan, be careful!" Meng Sheng ran over quickly and threw Qiu Juan to the side. The two rolled around a few times. The beast saw his food fleeing and wanted to catch up. Zhong Yang quickly picked up a piece of his head Larger stones were thrown in the past.
Zhong Yang's weapon for piercing the pheasant just now was thrown aside and he hasn't retrieved it yet. Now that he has nothing to defend himself, he can only run towards the place where the trees are densely packed, so that the tall beasts cannot catch up.
"Are you okay?" The beast was led away, Meng Sheng got up, and he pulled Qiu Juan up.
Qiu Juan rubbed his hand on the ground a few times, his skin was a little torn, and he couldn't take care of this little injury at this critical moment: "I'm fine, hurry up and help Zhongyang."
"Stay behind me, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you later."
"Don't worry, it's fine."
