Chapter 161
After another while, the cow walked up to the calf, gave it a few bites of milk, and lay down.
It was so weak that it would take a week or two to recover.
The calf also lay in the cow's arms and slept peacefully.
Lu Zhe looked at this slightly warm picture and couldn't help nodding: "Live well, let's not eat you first." "
But outside of the original plan, you have to build a cowpen, prepare forage, and do more.
A few girls were busy building a tree house again, and Lu Zhe began to pound neem fruit and bamboo charcoal ash to make mosquito coils.
Sister Bing came over and sat next to him: "How is it, have you reached the lake!"
Lu Zhe shook his head: "Hey, it's almost to the lake, but when I met this old iron, I came out with a big belly and was molested by a python, and I saved it when I saw righteousness..."
Speaking of this, Lu Zhe was suddenly stunned: "By the way, that python is still in the forest, I have to bring it back as food!"
Saying that, he wanted to get up, but was pulled by Shen Bing: "Oh, you rest!" Let's wait until the rain stops! As
soon as Lu Zhe thought about it, it couldn't be broken in a short time, and he said "okay" and continued to make mosquito coils.
Shen Bing was curious: "Hey, I'm strange, such a big cow, how big a python wants to eat it?"
"Don't want to eat that python big of yours yet!"
Lu Zhe thought for a while: "I was also confused originally, but now that I think about it, maybe the python is not running for a cow, but a calf that is about to be born!" They have a very sensitive sense of smell and may be able to detect some of the smells secreted by cows before giving birth, intending to eat calves after giving birth.
"It's possible!" Shen Bing nodded: "I really didn't expect that there were so many species on this island."
"It's very rich, and what we know at the top of the food chain is clouded leopards, bears, pythons, and wild boars."
Down are cows, sheep, monkeys and other creatures.
Carnivorous omnivores control the number of plant-eating groups and maintain the ecological balance of the island!
"You say, will our arrival upset that balance?"
"We will definitely have some impact on the ecology of the island, but not too much. For example, we eliminate some carnivores, but at the same time replace them to hunt some herbivores, but as long as we do not hunt uncontrollably, we will eventually approach equilibrium.
Lu Zhe said while adding some dama resin to the mosquito coil clay to knead, which not only increased the viscosity, but also covered up the choking smell of neem, without weakening the impact on snakes and insects.
Finally, it is rolled into long strips the thickness of a finger, coiled like a mosquito coil, and baked on a stone next to the fire.
"Wait for a while to dry and put it in the evening to use, this is only the beginner version, and you can make an improved version in the future."
At this time, the four girls had already set up the main structure of the shelter.
In fact, two side-by-side "me" shaped frames are tied with bamboo half a meter from the ground.
Ning Shu said: "When we weave rope in the middle of the wooden frame to form six rope beds, and a large area of banana leaves are stacked on the banyan branches on it to protect against rain." Our simple shelter is done. It is estimated that it will be done before the sun goes down.
Lu Zhe looked at it, the desert island survival for many days has greatly improved the hands-on ability of the four girls, and now the quality of this bed frame they have built is no less than the production results of ordinary boys.
Lu Zhe also praised: "Not bad!"
Lin shallow said: "Sister Bing's design, we will operate it."
Shen Bing smiled lightly: "The advantage is that it is easier to do, but the disadvantage is that you can't see the sun." "
It's already good as an initial shelter, and when we get through the transition period, we can make a better tree house, trim the canopy, and let some sunlight in."
"Hey..." Tang Xiaoguo rubbed his arm: "It's so sore just to do this arm, Brother Xiaozhe, you help me rub it!"
Jiang Yao reminded in Guo'er's ear: "Give up, no matter how you rub it, it won't get bigger!"
Tang Xiaoguo said angrily, "People are talking about arms!"
Jiang Yao nodded: "Arm, then I'll help you rub it." Then
he began to rub the fruit on his arm unscrupulously. It made Guo'er uncomfortable.
Ning Shu reminded: "The two eldest sisters don't make trouble, it's three o'clock in the afternoon, if it can't be finished after dark, you two will stand and sleep." Tang
Xiaoguo Jiang Yao quickly continued to tie the rope, and Shen Bing also went over to help.
Speaking of which, everyone has been busy for most of the day and has not eaten lunch.
Lu Zhe nodded: "The concubines are busy first, let's cook today, let's have a good meal!" In
this regard, the five girls are very looking forward to it!
What to do?
Lu Zhe had planned to pick up a bloody thing on the ground, which was the placenta of a cow, also known as a cow's coat.
Wash with clean water, marinate with salt for a while, cook it with a steel helmet, take it out and cut it into washing strips and set aside.
Then pick up a few bamboo shoot hearts, cut a few small sharp peppers and prepare.
Then make a simple steamer basket out of palm leaves, and put a few grilled banana fruits in it.
Cooked plantains have no sour taste, taste better, and are no problem as a staple food.
Under the steamer, a 92-style lunch box is used to cook some kelp and shellfish, which not only steams the plantain, but also makes a box of seafood soup.
Finally, palm oil is poured into the helmet and the beef placenta peppers and bamboo shoots are fried in batches.
After a while, the fragrance comes to the nose.
A few little insect couldn't stand it, so they threw down the work in their hands and ran over to eat.
"Wow, beef flavor, crispy raw, delicious to cry."
"Wait, beef flavor, what happened to the calf?"
A few girls looked at the calf sleeping in the cow's arms.
Lu Zhe told them: "This is the placenta of a cow!" "
Placenta?"
Several girls looked at each other.
"This kind of thing should not be acceptable to everyone..." "
Should we express it?!"
"How to say, scream? Wow, this turned out to be a placenta, so scary and terrible, how can we little fairies eat such a thing? Ning Shu said while rushing to put it in his mouth: "Which of you will come first?"
"Oh, squad leader, don't eat it all!"
"Stop choking!"
"The squad leader is the most chicken thief!"
"The steel helmet is too small to be fried at one time, and there are many more, enough for you to eat."
Lu Zhe said and finished stir-frying another pot and poured it on the banana leaves.
Shen Bing smiled: "Hey, if only we had a cauldron."
Jiang Yao said: "By the way, Lu Zhe, aren't you going to ask us to make casseroles?" When can I start?
Shallow said: "And planting!"
Lu Zhe also sat down: "Not in the past few days, we just arrived here, there must be a clear order of things!" First of all, we have to solve the problem of food and clothing, shelter. Then I had to explore the surroundings, lakes, jungles, wetlands, volcanoes, and see what resources were available.
Then improve the camp, such as installing fences, building cattle sheds, firewood rooms, warehouses, cisterns, and so on.
Once you've done that, you can think about making casseroles, planting, and so on. "
