Chapter 68 The Temptation of Roast Pork
Almost in an instant, Xu Lin matured a lot.
Faced with her maturity and calmness, Qin Long felt a little reluctant. He actually liked her innocent and romantic look even more. It’s a pity that time is like water. Sometimes, people have to grow up. Those who live in the sunshine all their lives are indeed extremely happy.
The wild boar was dragged under the tree, hung it on the trunk, bleed and opened, peeled and cramped, cleaned it up, tied the fresh pieces of meat with ropes, carried them with a stick, and the pig was tied into a cunt when it was carried by Xu Lin, and the two of them slowly walked back with Dahei.
It was just noon, and it seemed a bit early to go back.
Qin Long thought for a while and said to her: "I won't go back now. There is so much meat that it's hard to store. Let's go to the beach and marinate the meat in the sea water. This way I can keep it for two more days."
Xu Lin shook her head and said, "The cured meat is not delicious and it is easy to cause cancer. It is better to light a fire and make all bacon, which is more affordable."
"Good idea!" Qin Long's eyes lit up, and he put down his burden and started to make a fire.
Xu Lin pulled out the dagger, cut a piece of meat and threw it to Dahei, touching its head and said, "Be good at Dahei, go around and watch after eating, don't let strangers come."
As a result, after eating the meat, Dahei licked his mouth and slapped on the ground, ignoring Xu Lin's words at all.
Xu Lin frowned, kicked Dahei with some anger, and stared at it and said, "Silly dog, you know how to eat, do you know if you work?"
Qin Long turned around and looked at her and smiled, "If it could understand you, it wouldn't be a dog."
"Sister Qiaoqiao said she wanted to train a stupid dog. I'm training it, otherwise what do you think?" Xu Lin looked at Qin Long and said.
Qin Long smiled and didn't say anything, slowly walked to Da Hei's side.
When Dahei saw him coming, he didn't dare to lie on the ground. He quickly got up and raised his head to wag his tail at Qin Long.
Qin Long's face turned dark, he raised his hand and pointed at the forest beside him, shouting: "Go!"
Hei immediately ran out and walked around the surrounding bushes very diligently, pricking up his ears from time to time to listen to the sounds deep in the forest. The situation was very alert.
Xu Lin looked at Da Hei's appearance in surprise and couldn't help but ask Qin Long, "How did you do it?"
Qin Long smiled and said to her: "Guess yourself and test your talent."
"Tsk, what's the point?" Xu Lin curled her lips and said, "Can you still understand dog words? I see that there are two main reasons why Dahei listens to you. One is because it was conquered by you and I am most convinced by you. The other is because you give it instructions through gestures. It may not understand human words, but can understand body language."
"Reply!" Qin Long looked at her in surprise and couldn't help but sigh: "With this IQ, I believe you will definitely grow into an excellent warrior."
"I heard from you, my brain seems to be more important than a bullet. What's the use of my brain? Isn't it impossible to beat you?" Xu Lin said depressedly.
Qin Long shook his head and said, "It's different. You can't beat me. In addition to being inferior to me, the most important reason is that your brain is not as good as me. However, handsome men like me with high IQ are rare after all, so as long as you give full play to your advantages, you will still have a great chance of winning when you fight the enemy in the future."
"That's right, there are very few people like you who are shameless, tsk," Xu Lin rolled Qin Long's eyes and was very disdainful of his words.
"In short, when facing the enemy, you must not only be brave, but also be smart. You must always pay attention to analyzing the situation you are facing and find the most suitable strategy to fight the enemy, so that you can be invincible. For example, now there is a pirate with a big and thick hand holding a submachine gun to capture you, and you only have a self-defense dagger in your hand. What should you do?" Qin Long looked at Xu Lin and asked.
"What else can I do besides running?" Xu Lin snorted.
"Run? Can you run the bullet? As soon as you show up, the other party will sweep you to death," Qin Long said.
Xu Lin frowned, looked around, and thoughtfully said, "If the incident happened here, there is a way to deal with him."
"Tell me," Qin Long looked forward to it.
"The grass layer here is quite deep. As long as I lie on the ground, it will be difficult for the other party to find me," Xu Lin analyzed: "So, the first step is to lie down and hide your figure, and then quietly hide behind the nearby big tree. If it really doesn't work, you can hide in the shrub layer."
Qin Long nodded and said, "Yes, this is indeed the right solution, so what's next?"
"Back behind," Xu Lin said decisively: "The enemy cannot find me, and will definitely search everywhere. And because I am a little girl, his vigilance is definitely not very high, so I can go around behind him and attack him. Of course, the enemy is strong and it is difficult for me to kill with one blow. And once the enemy fails to go back and is discovered in advance by him, I will definitely die. So--"
When Xu Lin said this, she deliberately kept it a secret.
Qin Long said anxiously: "So what? What are you doing?"
Xu Lin was very satisfied with his reaction and said proudly: "It's very simple. Set up a trap, lead him into the trap, and then kill him, so that the success rate is higher."
"What trap will you set?" Qin Long said curiously.
Xu Lin snorted and said, "Don't look at me with that look, it makes me seem like a mentally retarded and nothing will be the same. Let me tell you, I finished the Romance of the Three Kingdoms when I was in elementary school and won the Excellence Award for Model Aircraft Production. The reason why I learned bad things was because my family incidents hit me a big blow and made me lose hope for the future, so I gave up on myself. But after all, I am not stupid. I still remember everything I learned before, so, let alone making a trap, I can try it even if I make a bomb."
Qin Long's eyes shone. Unexpectedly, the little girl still had this ability. She didn't realize she had picked up a treasure and said to her: "Then you can make a trap on the spot and I'll take a look."
Xu Lin didn't say anything, got up and walked to the side of the shrub layer next to her, cut down two branches as thick as a thumb with a dagger, sharpened the branches, and made them into a foot-long wooden thorn. He turned around and inserted a wooden thorn upside down on the ground. The snow-white tip of the wooden thorn was exposed to the air very frankly.
Qin Long frowned and said, "This is too low-level, right? Only a fool will be caught."
Xu Lin didn't say anything, and inserted another wooden thorn into it, then cut off a vine, set up a trip rope two meters away from the wooden thorn, looked at Qin Long and asked, "What about now?"
Qin Long nodded and said, "It's interesting, but it's still too straightforward. The other party has seen the wooden thorn in advance. Even if he tripped over by a tripping rope, he would avoid it after turning over."
Xu Lin hid in the shrub layer on the right side of the wooden thorn with a dagger and said to him: "Generally speaking, after the enemy is tripped, his subconscious action is to roll to the right. In this way, he just rolled in front of me. I can stab him at will. Do you think he is dead?"
Qin Long's eyes lit up, he couldn't help but nodded, and finally even gave him a thumbs up.
Xu Lin put away the dagger and returned to the fire. While using a tree stick to a barbecue rack, she sighed: "Actually, this method is more dangerous. The premise of implementation is that the opponent underestimates the enemy. He doesn't believe that I dare to ambush him at close range. If it is a smart enemy, this method will not work."
Qin Long used a tree stick to skewer a large piece of pork chop, put it on the rack, slowly grilled it, and said to her: "It's good that you can think of this. The environment on the battlefield changes rapidly. Different strategies must be adopted for different enemies. This is the real wise man."
"Hey, I didn't expect me to become a scheming person. I still feel quite unhappy," Xu Lin sighed.
Qin Long shook his head and said, "This is not called scheming, this is called cleverness."
"Okay, anyway, there's nothing good about you. I've accepted my fate long ago," Xu Lin smiled, looked at the fire, and asked, "Do you want to add some wet firewood and make out the cigarette?"
"I don't know. I have never made bacon. Isn't this what you suggested? Of course you are here to operate it," Qin Long said with a smile.
Xu Lin slapped her head and sighed: "I'm so stupid. Why do I forget this? You guy can't cook at all and you know nothing about food production."
After sighing, Xu Lin found wet firewood, made some fresh grass, and half buried the fire.
In this way, the fire will no longer have open fire, but a lot of smoke will be emitted.
Use these smoke to smoke fresh meat, and the surface of the meat pieces is dehydrated and becomes tough and hard, which can serve as a protective layer, delay the process of rotting and deteriorating meat, and achieve the purpose of long-term storage of meat.
After a piece of meat was smoked, Xu Lin changed into another piece.
Qin Long sat next to her, looking at her busy figure in a daze, unable to help but sigh, thinking that I must have saved the entire Milky Way in my previous life, otherwise, how could the women I met be more capable than the other one?
"Woom--"
Dahei's cry came, and when he looked up, he realized that it was chasing and biting a weasel.
"It's so fragrant. I guess all the animals around me will be seduced," Qin Long couldn't help but sigh, smelling the fragrant smell of barbecue.
"That's right, I'll catch it and continue to roast it," Xu Lin said with a smile.
Qin Long grinned and teased her, "Do you want to eat roasted monkeys?"
"How do you eat monkeys? You are so disgusting," Xu Lin rolled her eyes.
Qin Long stood up, looked up at the tree canopy in front of him, frowned and said, "What I said is true, there are really a group of monkeys over there."
When Qin Long saw the monkey, he unconsciously thought of Ono.
Xu Lin saw his expression change and couldn't help but say to him: "Go, with Da Hei here, I can take care of myself."
Qin Long nodded, quickly cut a vine as thick as a thumb, made a bow, then cut more than a dozen arrows, and then ran towards the group of monkeys.
When the monkey saw Qin Long running over, he immediately screamed and jumped toward the distance.
Qin Long didn't speak, and chased after him all the way. When he saw the monkey stopping and not leaving, he shot arrows.
The monkey was in pain and had to run all the way. Finally, he came to a vertical rock wall, and then the monkeys climbed upwards along the steep rock wall.
Qin Long walked down and looked up. He found that the stone wall was thirty or forty meters high, and there was basically no place to focus on. The monkeys were also powerful and could climb up. They were simply invincible.
I walked around the stone wall and wanted to find a way to go up the mountain, but I found that the entire huge raised rock was covered with vertical rock walls on all sides, and it was difficult to climb up with manpower alone.
Qin Long was a little depressed and sighed, wanting to give up, but he also felt that Ono might be hiding on the top of the mountain.
What to do?
He thought for a moment, and had an idea, so he ran back.
When he returned to the place where the bacon was roasted, he found that Xu Lin was still working diligently. He couldn't help but feel a little moved. He walked up to hug Xu Lin and kissed her, then carried a piece of bacon and ran away.
Xu Lin shouted, "What are you doing? That's my spoil!"
"Borrow it, I'll kill a wild boar and return it to you!" Qin Longtou didn't know either, so he ran away.
Back under the rock wall, Qin Long cut the bacon into strips with a knife, hung it in a row on the trees, and then hid in the dark and quietly observed it.
The scent of bacon attracted many animals, crows, skunks that could climb trees, black bears, and piles of ants.
The monkeys on the mountain naturally would not stand by and quickly slid down the stone wall and joined the ranks of competing for food.
The monkeys act together and can climb trees. Once they appear, other animals can only take a look.
Seeing that the bacon was about to be snatched away by the monkeys, Qin Long couldn't help but feel anxious. Could it be that he had given up so much capital but didn't catch anything?
Just when he was disappointed, a thin black figure slid down from the rock wall, and it was Ono.
Qin Long saw her at a glance, and his heart was sank.
Ono was injured and had a bloody wound on his leg, which made it difficult to move.
In this state, it is obviously impossible to grab food. She could only use the same trick again and walked towards the new leader of the monkey group, trying to exchange her body for food.
As a result, before she could get close, a fierce female monkey stood in front of her and grinned at her.
Ono's eyes were full of fear and subconsciously retreated. She seemed to be afraid of the female monkey.
Seeing this situation, Qin Long probably understood what was going on.
Obviously, because the former leader of the monkey group was killed by him, when Ono fled back, the monkey group was in the vacuum period of election of the new king. The male monkeys were all fighting and the female monkeys lost control, so they excluded Ono. If nothing unexpected happens, the injuries on her leg were caused by the female monkeys.
Qin Long sighed in his heart, quietly bent his bow and arrow, aiming at the ferocious female monkey.
With a light "swoosh", the wooden arrow shot into the female monkey's armpit. The female monkey suddenly screamed and rolled to the ground. The monkey group was suddenly disrupted and screamed.
Qin Long ran out of his hiding place and ran towards the female monkey with great strides.
When the monkey group saw it was him, they immediately fled, leaving only Ono and the injured female monkey.
After kicking the mother monkey to death, Qin Long turned around and walked towards Ono.
Ono was so shocked that she trembled all over and turned around and climbed to the rock wall desperately. As a result, she fell down because she had injured her leg and had been hungry for a long time.
