"They don't eat, mostly because there is no fire."
"Since we have fire, we naturally have to eat more if we can."
Zhao Xinqing was already a little impatient:
"What shall we eat?"
Su Bai looked at the grove and said:
"There is a bird's nest in that tree."
"I just saw two birds leaving the nest. This season, there should be eggs."
Zhao Xinqing's eyes lit up and she said:
"Pull out bird eggs and eat them?"
Su Bai nodded, led Zhao Xinqing to the tree, and said:
"This tree has a certain slope, and the bird's nest is not very high. I can climb up."
"You meet me below."
Zhao Xinqing nodded repeatedly.
Su Bai climbed onto the tree branch and soon approached the bird's nest.
I poked my head in and saw that there were indeed five white eggs lying in the bird's nest.
Su Bai carefully held the bird's nest, and while moving down, handed the bird's nest to Zhao Xinqing, who was raising her hands high under the tree.
Zhao Xinqing hugged the bird's nest and smiled happily.
Although five eggs are not big and need to be divided between two people, it is more satisfying to eat and drink something in the morning before going on the road than to eat nothing at all.
Seeing Su Bai jump off the tree, Zhao Xinqing was turning around to walk back when she suddenly heard Su Bai say:
"Don't leave, put the bird's nest under the tree."
Zhao Xinqing was stunned for a moment: "Huh? Why?"
Su Bai smiled and said: "Catch his father."
Barrage:【???】
【What kind of hell joke is this?】
[The rich second generation wins the bamboo shoots!]
Zhao Xinqing was stunned, and immediately placed the bird's nest under the tree according to the location indicated by Su Bai.
Su Bai took out the fishing line and pulled a rope around the top of the fishing line.
Su Bai shook the noose on the fishing line at the camera and explained:
"The rope trap is one of the oldest traps, but it has been handed down from ancient times, proving that it is simple and easy to use and is the best choice for catching small prey in the wilderness."
"Once the bird gets inside the noose, the noose will tighten due to the force on the noose."
Su Bai said, stretched out a finger and pressed the bottom of the noose.
Sure enough, as he exerted a little force, the noose quickly tightened and tied up Su Bai's fingers.
"The more it struggles, the tighter the noose becomes, and then its neck will be strangled."
After Su Bai said that, he wrapped the fishing line around the tree trunk above and dropped it an inch directly above the bird's nest. He placed the fishing rod in the shadow of the tree trunk and hid in the distance with Zhao Xinqing.
After half an hour, the bird that left the nest to look for food flew back.
This bird has a light blue body, a pure white belly, dark feathers on its head, and a red beak.
Zhao Xinqing said in a low voice:
"It turned out to be a red-billed blue magpie..."
"So beautiful..."
"What a pity."
This red-billed blue magpie landed where the bird's nest originally existed, and was obviously stunned for a moment.
In the live broadcast room, the barrages were blasting:
[Bird: Where is my home? 】
[Bird: I went out to have breakfast and my house was robbed? 】
The red-billed blue magpie jumped a few times in confusion, obviously confused.
But soon, it discovered the bird's nest under the tree.
The red-billed blue magpie spread its wings and flew to the nest, looked sideways, let out two anxious calls, and began to beat anxiously from side to side.
The air flow stirred up by the wings flapped the fishing line noose hanging above the bird's nest.
Soon, the red-billed blue magpie, which had never seen the dangers of society, jumped left and right and dived into the noose.
The noose was stressed and directly locked its neck.
"Zhizhizhi——"
A sharp and harsh cry came from the throat of the red-billed blue magpie.
The bird struggled a few times in the noose, then quickly tilted its neck and became motionless.
The fishing line was wrapped around the tree trunk, and the carcass of the red-billed blue magpie was hanging, swaying gently.
Barrage:
[Damn it, this trap is too overbearing...]
【Passive hanging...66666.】
[This kind of deadly trap only requires a rope... Humans are really amazing... The terrifying upright ape...]
[It’s so greedy... No, it’s so cruel. Please be sure to add more chili pepper. 】
Su Bai took Zhao Xinqing out of the hiding place, untied the red-billed blue magpie, placed it in the bird's nest, packed up the fishing rod and returned to the fire.
Zhao Xinqing was plucking the red-billed blue magpie while chatting with Danmu:
"Birds jumping back and forth are a way to vent their emotions, somewhat similar to human pacing."
"If a bird's nest falls to the ground, there is no way for such a medium-sized bird to reset it."
"Even if all the eggs are intact, the final outcome will be to abandon the nest and they will not hatch again."
"Well... this red-billed blue magpie is a male. It should weigh half a catty. It is considered a relatively large individual."
"Plus those five eggs, it's enough for Su Bai and I to have for breakfast."
After dealing with the red-billed blue magpie, Zhao Xinqing looked at Su Bai and asked:
"Do you still want to stew?"
Su Bai shook his head decisively: "We can't stew anymore. Time in the morning is precious. We need to travel more while the sun is not high."
"Then...roast?" Zhao Xinqing asked.
Su Bai sighed: "Let's cook."
As he spoke, he smashed two coconut shells open with sharp stones and made four small coconut pots. He scooped out the coconut meat, filled them with water, and placed them next to the fire to stew.
Although the red-billed blue magpie is not big, the coconut shell is also very small. It was filled with four small coconut pots, and the bird's head and claws were left behind before it could be filled.
Small things like bird eggs are easy to prepare. Just take out a few pieces of smoldering charcoal fire, place the bird eggs in the middle, and bake them thoroughly in ten minutes.
While waiting for breakfast for half an hour, Zhao Xinqing handed Su Bai two pieces of charcoal and asked him to chew it carefully and swallow it. She also insisted on adding a handful of plant ash from the fire to the water Su Bai boiled, making it
Su Bai couldn't laugh or cry.
The water with the addition of plant ash changed from the original clarity to a thick grayish-white color, like lime water, which made people instinctively feel that they could not drink it.
But Su Bai did not refuse. He knew that plant ash and charcoal were very clean things and were very useful in the wilderness.
Sure enough, Zhao Xinqing quickly explained to the drone camera:
"Charcoal can be used to clean teeth, disinfect and stop diarrhea."
"Plant ash has a similar effect."
"It just looks dirty, but it's actually very clean, even cleaner than most food you can find in the city."
"Of course, you can't eat too much."
After half an hour of stewing, the red-billed blue magpie was so cooked that the two of them ate it up, including the meat and soup.
For this meal, the six water-storing coconuts in Su Bai's basket turned into four.
"Let's go and try to find a suitable campsite tonight."
Su Bai took Zhao Xinqing and set off along the river again to explore deeper into this vast island.
…
On the other side, Wang Bang Bang and Luo Xun'er had just woken up.
Turn on the live broadcast tablet, and the live broadcast room is filled with ridiculing barrages:
【Good morning, Caipi!】
【Are you hungry today?】
[Do you know what Su Bai had for breakfast? Oh, I’m sorry, I forgot, you haven’t even had dinner yet? 】
Seeing these barrages, Wang Bang Bang and Luo Xun'er's expressions darkened.
They are internet celebrities, and no one cares more about audience feedback than them.
"A second-generation rich man is just lucky. You guys are just bragging."
"Survival in the wilderness, when the wind is favorable, even a dog can survive. Only in a headwind situation like this can we see the real technology."
"It doesn't matter, it only takes three days. My king, Bang Bang, will definitely live a thousand times better than the rich second generation!"
"At that time, you will know who is the expert in wilderness survival!"
"My king, Bang Bang, will declare a challenge to Su Bai now!"
