Chapter 51 Frustration

Author: Sunflower on the Cliff

"Captain, come quickly!"

Xia Zhi walked up to the camel and gently stroked the camel with her hand.

This is a habit she has developed from riding camels all year round. This kind of touching and intimacy will make camels feel close to other people.

Zhou Zhengan strode over, always feeling a little uncomfortable.

"Captain, please wait a moment to find some camel thorns. Camels like to eat, so let them eat a little first. If there is something in their stomachs, it is best to get some cactus to add some water to them."

Xia Zhi was not polite at all and summoned Captain Zhou directly.

You don't need to guess to think that these people also traveled over mountains and ridges for more than a day to get here.

The camel had to carry the two of them, so naturally it had to be nice to the camel and fill its stomach first.

Zhou Zhengan glanced at Xia Zhi and couldn't help but sigh a little when he saw Xia Zhi's tenderness towards the camel.

I feel like Xia Zhi has never been so kind to me.

These days people are worse than camels.

But go to work without any complaints.

Other little soldiers also came one day, but they didn't let the captain go, and their camels also needed to be fed.

All the camels were resting where they were, and the soldiers came back with a lot of things.

After all, there is a red yeast forest not far ahead, although it is still a little different from the red yeast forest they just ran out of.

The area is relatively small and sparse, but you can find a lot of food.

After a while, the camel was full of food and drink.

They finally set off on the summer solstice.

Xia Zhi consciously climbed in front of the camel.

She has a thin body, so sitting in this position is quite comfortable, but it would be a bit awkward for Zhou Zhengan to sit here.

It is relatively uncomfortable for two people to ride a camel.

But we can't worry about it getting dark soon.

Zhou Zhengan got on the camel from behind. Seeing that Xia Zhi was almost in his arms, his face turned red again.

Work hard to distract yourself.

Zhou Zhengan, an experienced leader, directed the camels to get up and everyone started on their way.

Xia Zhi sat in front, gradually becoming a little depressed.

To say I'm not tired would be a lie.

But compared to two people walking on legs, it is not a little bit better now.

Summer Solstice is already very satisfying.

Sitting in front and hugging the hump, I felt a little drowsy.

Zhou Zhengan was a little worried as he moved his head little by little, feeling that Xia Zhi could tip the camel off if he didn't pay attention.

But it seems like nothing I do is appropriate.

Zhou Zhengan stared at Xia Zhi almost fearfully, ready to reach out and pull the person back as soon as possible.

The amazing thing is that during the summer solstice, just like a chicken eating rice, it took a nap on the camel without ever leaning under the camel.

It was as if she was on a camel's back.

Zhou Zhengan was surprised, this girl was really different.

When they met for the first time, he found that Xia Zhi was very familiar with camels, and now it became clear that Xia Zhi was familiar with the habits of camels and even more familiar with other camels.

Even if you roll on your own, you won't be able to fall.

This depends on how familiar you are with camels, but according to Xia Zhi’s files, there is absolutely no way there were camels in the place where you came from.

Zhou Zhengan couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. Anyway, he was scratching his heart and lungs curiously like a kitten scratching there.

After finally arriving at the camping place, they walked for several hours before they were halfway out. There was no way they could take a long detour now.

But they didn't dare to continue walking on camels after dark. First, the visibility was not good at night, the terrain was difficult to see clearly, and it was easy to get lost.

The second night was full of wild wolves.

For safety reasons, everyone cannot mess around. After all, it is not only Jiang Yifan who is following them, but also these other little comrades.

Soon a bonfire was lit and everyone sat in a circle around the bonfire.

The flame provides everyone with a sense of security, removes the cold, and of course avoids the attacks of wild wolves.

But sitting in front of the flames, the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

No food!

The little warriors never thought that this time they would encounter the other party burning down the house, and would take such a long detour. Except for water, which was a must, they had not prepared anything at all in terms of food.

There was really nothing they could do except drink some water.

Zhou Zhengan winked at Jiang Yifan, turned around and left with the two young soldiers.

Others have nothing to eat, but they can't help it.

When training in the wild, they have long been accustomed to how to survive without any external aid.

What does this count for?

An hour later, Zhou Zhengan and Jiang Yifan came back with their young comrade Xiong Jiujiu in high spirits.

I carried ten gerbils in my hand, all of which had been skinned and cleaned.

Of course he was also carrying two sand grouse.

Not to mention that this thing is quite fat.

Just when they were catching these, they discovered a water source in the distance, which was very convenient for everyone to replenish the water source.

And when they came back, they found that the meat was already roasting in front of the fire.

After they left, Xia Zhi took the little comrade with him and he didn't have any time to spare. Anyway, he knew a lot of things.

Originally, I wanted to take them to dig some cacti and bring back some apocynum and giant pillars.

I saw the summer solstice just now.

The roots of Apocynum can be eaten, and the stems of Giant Pillar can be eaten.

And it tastes good. If they grill it and eat it, it will taste better after being heated.

By the way, everyone also needs to replenish the water supply. They must look for water around them.

As a result, he accidentally caught a small wild boar.

This wild boar is really not big.

Under normal circumstances, they would not dare to provoke small wild boars. Don't think that because wild boars are small, they can hunt them casually.

Wild boars are followed by their parents, who usually come out in groups to seek revenge.

They don't dare to provoke him easily.

But this little wild boar is different. Its hind legs have been bitten off. It looks like it was injured after being chased by an unknown animal.

And judging from the fact that the wound has rotted away, he must have been abandoned by his family.

Otherwise, such an injured little wild boar would not be left alone.

So they brought the wild boar back with peace of mind and cleaned up near the water source they found.

When I came back now, I immediately dressed it into meat skewers and grilled it.

Xia Zhi also used his brains and found salt cistanche.

Because this plant grows in saline-alkali soil, it has a salty taste.

It is the best seasoning. Of course, the taste of this salted cistanche is much better than that of salt from saline-alkali land. At least it eliminates the bitter taste.

Cut the plant into slices and place directly in the middle of the roast.

As the fat of the meat sizzles, the salt in the plants will also be absorbed by the fat.

The little comrades gathered happily around the campfire, with the smell of barbecue wafting from their noses.

When Zhou Zhengan and the others smelled this fragrance when they came back, they felt a little doubtful about life.

They went out for a walk, and they even grilled meat.

Zhou Zhengan and Jiang Yifan felt frustrated for the first time.
