Chapter 6 0006 Pheasant
Pulling open the wooden door of the thatched hut, he truly set foot into the wilderness.

When he walked out of the cabin, he noticed that the place where the cabin was located was like being in a primeval forest that he had only seen in movies.

The surrounding environment is quiet, and the air is filled with the smell of various grasses, trees, and rotten leaves.

The few rays of sunlight that were cast were dismembered by the branches and leaves of the towering trees, and turned into sparse, mottled light and shadows on the ground covered with dead branches and leaves.

Walking outside, feeling the slightly chilly environment, standing in the slightly dark woods, looking at the unfamiliar and primitive forest environment, Cheng Zongyang couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart.

This is a kind of awe for nature.

The chirping of insects and birds in the forest gave him some comfort, at least indicating that the surrounding environment was not too dangerous.

What I'm afraid of is the kind that makes no sound at all.

That means terror!
"There should be plenty of prey in a place like this."

Cheng Zongyang murmured something, prepared his bow and arrow, and began to explore outside.

Hearing and vision are both important when hunting.

His eyes were as sharp as torches, scanning the surroundings bit by bit. He listened carefully to all directions and paid attention to the movements around him.

I didn't walk around randomly. I walked around the house first, based on the eight directions of the house.

When I saw that there was a slightly flat terrain to the northwest of the house, I decided to explore this area first.

In order to avoid getting lost, he would occasionally leave an L-shaped mark on the tree trunks he passed by on the road, which meant that this was the direction to go back. If it was the opposite direction, it was the direction to go.

"Cuckoo..."

After walking only two or three hundred meters, Cheng Zongyang heard a sound similar to that of a pheasant.

He stopped and looked to the left at about nine o'clock. There was a patch of low bushes and a few gray-feathered pheasants jumping around.

A smile appeared on Cheng Zongyang's lips.

"Estimated distance... should be around sixty to eighty meters." Cheng Zongyang glanced over and made an estimate in his mind based on his experience.

Seeing that the arrow's killing range was insufficient, he slowly moved forward.

After walking about twenty meters, he came to a tree, checked the environment under his feet, and saw that there were no reptiles that shouldn't be there, so he began to prepare.

A few seconds later, Cheng Zongyang strung the bow and walked out from behind the tree, his eyes like a falcon staring at the pheasant that was cooing and shaking its feathers on the top of the bushes.

It looked like they were courting.

"Lust is like a sword hanging over your head, buddy." After locking onto her, Cheng Zongyang murmured to himself and loosened his right finger.

With a "bang" sound, the bowstring vibrated and the wooden arrow shot out like a meteor.

In the blink of an eye, the pheasant, which was stretching its neck to continue calling in the last second, was pierced through the body by a wooden arrow and flew out in the next second, falling to the ground, tumbling and struggling.

This sudden change scared many pheasants of the same species in the bushes, causing them to flap their wings and fly away in fright.

Cheng Zongyang didn't care and didn't rush over. Instead, he stayed there and waited for a few minutes.

At the same time, a prompt box appeared in front of him——

[Kill the gray pheasant, points +1]

After three seconds, the prompt box disappears automatically.

Cheng Zongyang was not too surprised as it was mentioned in the information.

When he saw no other creatures appeared, he walked towards the bushes step by step.

The pheasant was no longer alive.

"Wow, I didn't think it was from a distance, but when I look at it up close, it must be seven or eight kilograms, right?"

Cheng Zongyang was a little dumbfounded when he saw the rather large pheasant. Compared with the skinny pheasant he had shot yesterday, this one looked like it had been injected with hormones.

"It seems that the creatures in this world are very plump." Cheng Zongyang's eyes sparkled.

That means, this is all money!

Cheng Zongyang took out a long bamboo tube and a hatchet, then quickly pulled out the wooden arrow, and while paying attention to the surroundings, he skillfully bled the pheasant. The chicken blood was stored in the bamboo tube to avoid waste.

In times of food and meat shortage, a bowl of chicken blood can save lives.

The coagulated chicken blood can be chopped up and added with wild vegetables to make a big pot of soup.

Even if your family doesn't eat chicken blood, you can take it to the county to sell it.

At the very least, you can give it to your neighbor and get a favor.

It's all money.

Drain the chicken blood, cover the bamboo tube with the lid and put it back into the backpack, then take out the short bamboo tube.

As soon as the lid was pulled off, a pungent smell came out.

Cheng Zongyang held his breath and poured out some gray dry powder from it and smeared it on the feathers of the pheasant.

Then he put the pheasant in a sack and put it back in the backpack, but he took out the mouse he had brought with him.

The purpose of the powder is to cover up the smell of blood. It was passed down from his father. This can reduce the number of animals with sharp noses that will chase after him by smelling the blood.

After finishing this, Cheng Zongyang was about to leave, but then he seemed to remember something and turned to look at the bushes.

After rummaging around for a while, his eyes lit up.

Really!
Soon, thirteen palm-sized pheasant eggs were collected from the bushes.

"Hey, that's good, we have protein."

Cheng Zongyang was very happy. He didn't expect that this gray pheasant was so big and its eggs were also big.

He hasn't had this kind of gain for a long time.

After finding a place with stones, Cheng Zongyang dismembered the mouse and took out a small package folded with yellow paper.

This time he brought two packages of things, one was hemostatic powder he made himself, and the other was the sleeping pills in his hand.

In order to catch prey, his father developed countless strange and bizarre things.

This drug was obtained by Cheng Guanghai when he was hunting in the mountains. He accidentally discovered a purple plant with small fruits, surrounded by many mosquitoes, rats and ants.

These mosquitoes, insects, rats and ants were not dead, but they were all unconscious, as if they were asleep.

After some research, they used its fruit to make aphrodisiacs.

It is of little use to humans, but has a very good effect on animals.

It goes without saying that this plant evolved to prevent animals from eating its fruits.

Unfortunately, this kind of plants are hard to find and there are very few of them.

The amount he brought this time was not much and it was almost used up.

He applied some on the dead mouse, carefully put away the paper bag, and then tied up the mouse with rattan.

After looking around, Cheng Zongyang hung it on a tree trunk. This way, maybe he could catch some animals without much effort.

I used to do this outside and caught quite a few. But as more and more people went into the mountains, this method became ineffective.

After checking the mouse's corpse and finding nothing wrong, he turned and left.

As a result, as soon as he turned around, he suddenly stopped.

His hair stood on end as he stared at a black creature at the 11 o'clock position that was staring at him.

"Gulu..."

Looking at the black creature, Cheng Zongyang couldn't help swallowing and clenched his left hand holding the longbow.

It's not that he's greedy, but... it's a fear reaction from his body.

That's a black panther!
The size is comparable to that of a tiger!

 The points gained from hunting prey are divided by the life energy provided per unit (jin), not by body size. The points purchased by the store are not controlled by the protagonist (zuo), but are purchased by the system, just like the price of goods listed in the mall, it is up to you whether to buy or not. Therefore, the purchase of this kind of points is unreasonable and normal, and no rebuttal is accepted!
