Chapter 128 When the search for materials is in progress

After throwing the two deer onto the horse's back, Shi Miao got on the horse again and drove Hei Feng into action.

Because Shi Miao's breath often disappears these days, but he still drives himself to act. Hei Feng got used to Shi Miao's silent disappearance and reappeared on horseback, so he started running in the direction Shi Miao wanted.

Originally, Shi Miao wanted to find a wild boar and tie it back, and then use genetically modified drugs to see if it could mutate into a domestic pig, but Shi Miao didn't see a single pig along the way, but encountered a group of bison that were migrating.

The size of the bison is much larger than that of ordinary domestic cattle, and the color is only a single black and white.

After coming here for such a long time, Shi Miao's mind changed a little when he encountered a bison for the first time.

Wild boars are good, but it seems better to bring back one or two of these wild boars.

It's just that the bison is too big, and Heifeng might not be able to bear it on his back.

After thinking for a while, Shi Miao had a wonderful idea in his heart.

"sorry."

Saying sorry to the cows, Shi Miao took the rein from Heifeng's neck, walked over and tied it around the neck of a calf that seemed to be less than a month old, and then pulled the calf towards Heifeng. while walking.

His cub suddenly left the team and walked back. The cow didn't know why, so she mooed twice.

The calf mooed twice, and wanted to grab the rope and turn back to its mother, but was held tightly by Shi Miao, and could only be forced to move forward, so the cow had to leave the team to keep up with her. brat.

"Hei Feng, we should go back, walk slowly."

Holding the calf and jumping on the horse, Shi Miao lightly touched Hei Feng's head, and Hei Feng understood and began to walk back slowly.

Ever since, Shi Miao is riding a horse, leading a calf, and the picture of a cow closely following the calf is outlined in this way.

At this time, the anesthetics of the two deer had also expired, and after waking up, they began to flop around on the horse's back restlessly.

But today's Shi Miao can be regarded as a little rich, and he sent them another anesthesia crossbow without hesitation.

In this way, it took Shi Miao three hours of hard work to bring the two deer and a pair of bison back home.

Seeing Shi Miao use a calf to lure a cow, Uncle Ge couldn't help but twitched his eyelids: "This move of yours is too bad."

"Then it's the season when we eat meat and drink milk, so don't participate."

Shi Miao gave Uncle Ge an angry look, and then continued: "But in this case, do we still need to build a backyard? We have a cage of chickens, a sheep, and now there are two more deer and two cows. Maybe there will be more spare food, so we have to raise them separately."

She was also a little embarrassed to take advantage of the mother-child relationship between calves to bring them over, but nothing was more important than their ability to live well and survive this winter.

"I know, I know, tell them not to go out in the afternoon, your arrangement is important."

Uncle Ge, who hadn't finished the bellows all morning, pouted and said.

During lunch, Uncle Ge proposed to repair the backyard requested by Shi Miao, and everyone naturally agreed.

So in the afternoon, except for Miya and Shi Miao who went out to continue hunting, everyone stayed and started to repair the backyard.

The backyard is much simpler to build than the house you live in. The sheds for keeping prey only need a few square meters one after another, with a stone trough for feeding in the middle.

As for the top of the shed, just punch it out of wood and spread a layer of mud mixed with grass on it.

Even so, it took everyone five days to build the shed.

Shi Miao and Miya also brought back some prey one after another during this period.

When the shed was built, there were more than 20 chickens locked in, a dozen rabbits, five or six antelopes, a big and a small bison, and a wild boar.

After these prey were locked up, the bison, wild boar, and antelope were secretly injected with genetically modified drugs by Shi Miao.

After confirming that there is no need to raise more prey, everyone continued to work on the tasks assigned before.

Because there are more prey to be raised, a lot of grass needs to be fed, so Liu Ailing's burden becomes heavier, and Shi Miao simply takes the burden of finding the staple food on herself.

As for the winter diet, Shi Miao has already thought up an idea in the past few days.

Under the search of the Neptune, she dug all the sweet potatoes and potatoes that could be dug within a few miles and brought them back.

After digging continuously for a week, and digging up fifty baskets of sweet potatoes and potatoes, Shi Miao stopped this step after they couldn't find any potatoes or sweet potatoes in a radius of several miles.

In order to improve the shelf life of these foods, Uncle Ge proposed the idea of ​​digging a cellar midway because there was no freezer. In the end, this result was approved by everyone.

So one day, everyone spent a whole day digging a five-meter-deep cellar. At Shi Miao's request, everyone left behind five baskets of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and the rest were sent into the cellar in baskets.

Together with those sent to the cellar, there were also eight baskets of wild pears and fifteen baskets of apples brought back by Uncle Ge.

With the increase of food, everyone has become more and more confident about the winter.

It was another beautiful morning. Uncle Ge, who went out to pick wild fruits, came back excitedly with a basket of longan on his back. He couldn't help laughing:
"I was lucky today. I came across an acre of wild soybeans. In the afternoon, someone will accompany me to collect those soybeans. In winter, we can grind soybean milk and make tofu."

"So lucky, are you sure you didn't find Jinjin?"

Shi Miao was a little surprised that Uncle Ge found Soybean.

There are several bags of soybeans on an acre of land. Although shelling and peeling the beans is a bit troublesome, there are more types of soybeans in our diet. This is good news for everyone.

"Who do you look down on? I went to drink some water when Jin Jin was picking longan for you. I just happened to come across that piece of wild soybeans. I can't be lucky?"

Uncle Ge curled his lips unwillingly.

"Okay, okay, your luck is great! The firewood chopped by Tianjiao in the past two days is almost the same, let Tianjiao go with you in the afternoon, and I will go out to see if I can find wheat fields or wild rice."

Shi Miao perfunctorily praised Uncle Kua Ge.

Since they can meet one wild wheat field, Shi Miao is confident that they can find a second one.

It's just that things like luck are not always good. After searching for half a month, Shi Miao brought back a lot of various foods, but the traces of wheat fields and rice were nowhere to be found.

After more than 20 days of hard work, Gu Tianjiao moved a lot of firewood under the sheds of the two mud brick houses, which is enough for the big guys to survive the winter.

Xu Yi and Zhou Youcai also dug up five or six tons of coal in their daily busy schedule, and dumped all of them in the northeast corner specially reserved for coal storage.
