From the small pool by the river, she fished out the meat that she hadn't finished eating yesterday.
She sniffed it, and indeed, the fishy smell was very light. It seemed that the method of using water to isolate the smell was quite effective.
However, she couldn't leave it for too long, otherwise, the meat would rot.
Although large beasts rarely appeared in this area, small beasts that looked like wolves or pigs were still common.
Don't ask her why she called those beasts small beasts. When you saw a monster that was the size of a two-story house, you would also think so.
In any case, she didn't recognize those creatures, so she could only call them big beasts or small beasts!
Please forgive her, this little kid who had just arrived.
Carrying the meat, she quickly went to the river to wash it clean. She took out the only remaining fruit knife that she had brought from the other world. The other things, like small bags, wallets, face towels, keys, mobile phones, cosmetics, and so on, were all gloriously sacrificed during the journey to escape from the beasts.
Sigh!
Yan Yue's heart was incomparably glad!
Fortunately, she had the habit of carrying a fruit knife in her bag at all times. It didn't matter if she lost anything. This was a tool that could save her life and make a living, so she must take good care of it.
Holding the knife, she followed the grain and cut the large piece of meat into small pieces.
Then, she used a branch to string the meat together.
She tidied up some leaves and piled them into a pile. She stretched out her hand to beckon the little fellow, "Tuantuan, come, come, come and blow on the fire."
This was something that Yan Yue accidentally discovered. In addition to being cute, the little fellow could fly in the sky as a scout, and its ability to breathe fire was also not small. At least, it was much better than when she had just arrived and strenuously struck the flint.
The little fellow dragged its round body and slowly flew down from the tree.
With regards to Yan Yue wanting it to start a fire, it was truly speechless. Yan Yue's Natal Divine Flame was used for fighting and suppressing small beasts. It was not used for small purposes such as starting a fire. It was really too much of a loss to its dignity.
However, when it thought that if it provoked Yan Yue, it wouldn't have any meat to eat, so it still endured the humiliation and did as she asked!
Poor guy, you've lost all your dignity on your flesh.
"Hehe." Although she had been with the Tuantuan for so long and watched it play tricks every day, Yan Yue couldn't help but chuckle when she saw the little guy's sullen and cute expression. Sure enough, for girls, the power of kawaii was invincible.
After eating the natural meat without additives, his stomach was still churning.
He was used to having fragrant barbecued meat. It was really hard for him to get used to meat without any spices in this world.
But if you don't eat, you'll starve to death, sigh!
Yan Yue drank a few mouthfuls of water by the riverside. The fishy taste in her mouth was immediately diluted.
Carrying the Tuantuan in her arms, Yan Yue turned around and returned to the tree. She was ready to rest for a while before starting a new hunt.
Because the Tuantuan people had a huge appetite, they had to hunt once every few days.
Fortunately, there were many big and small animals in this huge forest. This also made it easier for Yan Yue to hunt.
However, without the help of cold weapons like knives and swords, hunting became extremely difficult. However, under the situation where she would starve to death if she didn't eat, she still made good use of her small body.
It was just that all the creatures here were so unfamiliar. In the first month, Yan Yue had brushed shoulders with death several times and was injured several times.
There were rats that could fly, four-eared red rabbits, insects that were as big as watermelons, blood-sucking vines, trees that could walk … The novelty of this world had already far exceeded her imagination.
The little guy in her arms didn't wait for Yan Yue's instructions and went to carry out its reconnaissance mission on its own.
Speed was also one of its advantages.
Yan Yue had told it that it could only move within a radius of more than ten miles, because it would be dangerous if it went beyond this range.
It had just hatched for a few months and didn't have much ability. It had no choice but to obey.
The Tuantuan's more than one meter long wings could be extended and retracted freely. It flew up and down in this forest, very agile.
Its big round eyes scanned the surroundings for any edible creatures.
Yan Yue sat under a tree, waiting for the Tuantuan to return.
They still had plenty of time, because the sun here would hang in the sky for a full twenty-four hours before going down. It was the same at night.
One day and one night, a total of forty-eight hours.
The forest at night was very dangerous. She had to store enough food during the day.
After an hour, the little guy finally flew back. It excitedly fluttered up and down in front of Yan Yue and described the information it had found.
From its description, it could be seen that the prey this time was a relatively large animal.
However, the Tuantuan didn't pull her away, which meant that the prey shouldn't be too dangerous.
Following the Tuantuan, Yan Yue slowly approached the prey.
Hiding behind a big rock, she glanced at the animal from afar. It looked like a pig.
Except for its long mouth and long fangs, its other features were similar to a pig, but its size was several times larger.
"The prey this time is good. It's enough to eat for a few days. Tuantuan, be good. Stay here and watch. I'm going to set the trap." The Tuantuan was very intelligent. Yan Yue wasn't afraid that it couldn't understand her words.
Turning around, Yan Yue retreated to the flat ground a few hundred meters away. Then, she began her task of catching the pig.
She dug the trap, buried the picket, and spread hay and leaves.
Then, she hung a vine from the thick branch right above the trap and tested its tightness. It felt good.
Yan Yue followed the path back to the place where the wild boar was.
She called back the Tuantuan that was fluttering above her head. Holding the sharpened picket, the woman and the beast slowly approached the wild boar that was eating.
When they were only a dozen meters away from the wild boar, she put down the Tuantuan and waited in place.
Yan Yue rushed to the wild boar at a speed of 100 meters. The picket in her hand flew towards the wild boar like a dart. She didn't have time to see the result. She immediately turned around and ran towards the place where the trap was set.
She didn't need to look back to know that the pig must have been hit. With such a close distance and months of experience, it would be strange if it didn't hit.
Sure enough, after being stunned for a moment, the wild boar immediately roared and chased after them.
The Tuantuan also flew in front of it. It spat small fire from its mouth. It didn't cause much damage, but it angered the big-breasted, brainless wild boar even more. It screamed and chased after the two guys that had angered it.
Along the way, it didn't turn. It rushed straight at the woman and the beast, breaking a thick tree. It was obvious that its brute force was very strong.
Yan Yue looked back at the trees that had been broken by the wild boar. She thought that if her small body was hit by the wild boar, she would definitely die. She couldn't help but quicken her pace.
If it wasn't for her small body, she wouldn't have to work so hard.
Just as the wild boar's rough body was about to hit Yan Yue, Yan Yue had already run to the side of the trap.
She used the momentum to take a step and grabbed the vines with both hands. She used the momentum to swing herself to the ground of the trap.
The wild boar didn't know and continued to chase after Yan Yue. However, Yan Yue had already set up the trap.
Its front foot missed a step and its whole body flipped into the trap. It was immediately pierced like a hedgehog by the hidden weapons.
It didn't make any sound after a few words. It looked like it was almost dead.
"Tuantuan, look around. Call me if there's a big guy coming."
"Squeak squeak!"
After explaining to the Tuantuan, Yan Yue jumped into the pit and harvested the results of this time.
She had to finish cleaning up quickly because the smell of blood would soon attract a lot of other animals. She didn't want to be attacked by a group of animals.
She quickly cut the meat that was convenient to carry, wrapped it in leaves, and tied it with vines. In a short while, she had wrapped several big bags.
Only a small part of the whole pig's meat was cut, but she didn't have that much time.
Yan Yue didn't know what it was, but every beast here had it. It looked like a crystal, but it was a little elastic and moist. She felt a lot more comfortable when she held it in her hand. It should be something good, so she always kept it. Yan Yue didn't know what it was, but every beast here had it. It looked like a crystal, but it was a little elastic and moist. She felt a lot more comfortable when she held it in her hand.
And this time, it was bigger than before, and the color was brighter.
Yan Yue hurriedly put it into her arms, climbed out of the pit, grabbed the vines, and called the little fellow to run together.
After running for a few thousand meters, she heard the low roar of some animals in the distance behind. It seemed that they had found the delicious lunch of the wild boar.
Yan Yue ran to the burial spot she had dug earlier, threw a bag of meat down, and immediately covered it with soil and smelly grass to prevent the animals from finding the meat she buried by smell.
After burying several bags of meat in a row, Yan Yue ran back to the place where she lived with the Tuantuan. She climbed up the tree quickly and waited for the animals to leave after they finished looking for food.
A few hours later, there were no longer any roars or gasps of wild beasts in the surroundings.
Yan Yue ran to her burial spot, took out the wrapped meat, and put it in the small pool by the river to isolate the smell.
She and the little fellow finished the remaining meat from yesterday, took out a new bag of meat and roasted it, and took it to the tree.
She hid the colorful crystal stone in the tree hole, put the meat at her feet, and waited for the night to come.
She didn't know how long such busy and peaceful days had passed. She didn't know whether it was spring, summer, autumn, or winter, because the trees here were always so green. There was no hot summer or cold winter, just like there was no change of seasons.
Yan Yue could only guess that another year had passed by according to her height.
