After living on a desert island, they all plotted evil against me.

The skinning of animals on TV is as easy as eating a banana, and half of the body is gone in one go.

But if Zhang Liu does it himself now, he needs to carefully cut the gap with a metal piece, and then pull it hard to take off a piece.

Cut the gap again and pull hard.

This is still easier to deal with the belly and back.

After making several cuts in the skin at the distal joint of the mutton leg, he simply made a circumferential cut around the calf, bypassing the hoof.

Fortunately, the sheep was suspended in the air by the "hanging rack" made by Anya. He was able to exert his strength easily with the help of two girls.

That's why there is enough space to deal with it. If there is only one person, Zhang Liu really doubts whether he can peel it off until night.

"Huh..." Pulling the sheepskin off his tail, he took a deep breath and couldn't help but have a happy smile on his face.

In his opinion, this is not only sheepskin, but also one of the important equipment for going out to explore tomorrow.

However, the feedback from holding the sheepskin in your hands is not as soft as the sheepskin cotton-padded jackets your parents bought for you when you were a child. Instead, it feels like you are holding on to a thick and tough layer of rubber.

Can this thing really be used as a backpack?

Although there was some hesitation in his heart, Zhang Liu had no time to think too much at the moment.

He knew that his priority should be to deal with the mutton that was completely exposed to the hot air rather than dealing with the skin.

Chapter 54 If you can, don’t come back and spend the night!

Zhang Liu didn't know how much this sheep weighed specifically.

After all, there are no weighing tools at the moment.

But he was sure that there was a lot of meat to eat.

There were four legs of meat, the meat from the lamb's breast, the belly meat that Anya had pointed out to save for skewering mutton skewers later, and a whole spine with meat, and other parts of the meat that could be felt very tender when pulled with a knife.

Some disadvantages are that there is not much fat on the body of the sheep. From Anya's understanding of eating steak professionally, it means that it will not sizzle and become oily when grilled.

Qin Ruoshuang couldn't stand the sight of muscles and fat being pulled open with a knife, so she took the initiative to search for wood not far away.

Anya and Zhang Liu started discussing how to eat meat with great interest.

"There will definitely be no problem with the smoked meat!" Pointing to the butt meat that Zhang Liu pulled down along the leg of the lamb, Anya, whose family owns a cattle farm, said firmly: "There's quite a lot of fat, so it's not easy to damage!"

"Oh!" Zhang Liu carefully placed the butt meat on a large piece of leaves, nodded and said, "Then I will cut it into strips later so that I can take some away tomorrow."

Then he pointed to his belly and asked, "You will handle this by yourself later? You really don't need my help?"

"Of course!" Anya nodded, then rolled her eyes at Zhang Liu and complained: "You think you are superhuman, you can handle lamb legs and grill skewers."

"Ahem... I'm afraid you'll be tired." Zhang Liu said sincerely, "After all, I'm a boy, so I should work more."

He said this very sincerely.

Because compared to herself who was only slightly out of breath after handling the sheep's body, Anya was obviously sweating profusely, and the red sportswear on her body was completely soaked.

"Tch, you should worry more about Qin Ruoshuang!" When Anya heard that the other party cared about her, Anya felt sweet. At the same time, she also realized that there was something wrong with the sour words she just blurted out, so she quickly added: "Pay attention, she is a woman after all. Kid, don’t keep staring at other people’s chests!”

"what?"

Zhang Liu, who was inexplicably accused of being blamed, had a confused face, but he did not stop what he was doing.

Place the lamb legs, lamb backbone, and lamb ribs on the two racks in sequence, and then shake twice to make sure the rack will not collapse.

Then a small fire was lit below, and when it burned well, it was covered with a layer of damp branches soaked in sea water.

Along with the sizzling sound, a thick smoke rose up and began to burn on the meat.

"Cough cough cough..." The smoke spread quickly. Zhang Liu, who was standing next to the fire, was choked and coughed several times. Anya not far away was also smoked to the point of grabbing two pieces of meat as long as her own arms. Just run back.

At the same time, the smoke also successfully drove away many flies that were attracted by the smell of blood near the cave.

The previously annoying buzzing sound disappeared in an instant.

"I'm going to deal with the stone pit at the back. I'll leave it to you here." Zhang Liu took a sip of water to relieve his smoky throat and felt his throat moistened. Then he looked at the piece of metal he was sharpening one by one. Anya, who was holding the slender wooden stick, warned: "You try to persuade Qin Ruoshuang to sit on it later and get used to the bloody scene. She can take her time. There is no need to force herself like that."

"I'm not going to say it." The movement of cutting wood suddenly stopped. Anya raised her head, pouted her little mouth and said dissatisfiedly: "If you want to say it, you can say it yourself!"

"No, I'm a boy. If I show too much concern for her, in this special environment, I will be suspected of taking advantage of her." Zhang Liu looked at Anya sincerely and said, "So please, Anya. Alright, okay?"

"Then you care so much about me, so you're not afraid of taking advantage of the situation." With a slight roll of his eyes, Zhang Liu's self-defense words made Anya very comfortable, and at the same time she said with a blush: "You told me last time that it was okay. Why are you being lazy..."

"Ah... aren't you bullying me?" Zhang Liu's eyes widened instantly.

In the previous "foot sprain" incident, wasn't Anya planning to bully her?

Looking at Anya, his expression began to become complicated, and he also began to recall the strange words Anya shouted before.

"I'm ready to pinch your waist..."

"Be responsible for me..."

"Upgrade your class..."

After being silent for a while, Zhang Liu said hesitantly: "Classmate Anya, are you doing this to me because of the suspension bridge effect? ​​Ahhhhhhh!"

He screamed and dodged the sharp wooden stick that Anya aimed at his chest.

Zhang Liu grabbed a kindling from the fire and ran away.

"Don't come back if you can!" Anya yelled angrily as she stood watching Zhang Liu's hastily escaping figure.

Then she covered her face and squatted on the spot without speaking.

The feeling of shyness kept coming to my mind.

Does Zhang Liu already know what he's thinking?

Anya suddenly had such an idea in her mind, and at the same time she began to curse the other person in her heart for being a piece of wood.

Only now do I understand!

"What happened?" After hearing the violent sound, Qin Ruoshuang ran back holding a pile of wood, and then she saw Anya with a red face squatting on the spot and covering her face. There was a hint of surprise in her voice.

"It's okay, Zhang Liu just teased me!" He casually said words that Qin Ruoshuang could not ignore easily. Anya pointed at the cave and said: "Qin Ruoshuang, you can go up first after you finish collecting firewood. To overcome the fear in your heart, you can also There’s no need to force yourself now!”

"But..." Qin Ruoshuang looked at the mutton not far away that was "dismembered" by Zhang Liu and Anya. Her face suddenly turned pale and her steps became sloppy.

"Classmate Qin Ruoshuang, you don't want classmate Zhang Liu to see you squirting from your mouth, right?" Anya crossed her arms and said, "In that case, the image of the iceberg beauty will be gone."

"Where did this beautiful iceberg girl come from?" Qin Ruoshuang couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard the nicknames given to her by other students in this school.

"Isn't that what everyone calls her? Your sister is called the Volcano Explosion Girl?" In the pile of firewood in Qin Ruoshuang's arms, she found several wooden sticks suitable for skewering mutton skewers. Anya spoke while peeling the bark of the tree. Said: "By the way, what is her original name?"

"Qin Ruoyan, it turned out to be the smoke of fireworks. Later, my mother asked her to change her name."

After a brief chat with Anya, Qin Ruoshuang, who was aroused by her worries, sighed slightly, then stood up and continued to collect firewood outside.

Feeling that the other party didn't have much desire to talk, Anya stopped asking for trouble and continued to work hard.

Try to eat mutton kebabs for lunch and roast lamb legs for dinner to replenish your protein!

Thinking of the hot and oily meat, she couldn't help but run to the clam shell where the offal was still being stewed, fish out a piece of offal and stuff it into her mouth.

This is not stealing, but the most primitive way to judge whether the meat is cooked.

To Anya's disappointment, after the hot offal entered her mouth and chewed repeatedly, it still had a tough texture, which was very different from the haggis soup she had imagined.

Trying to straighten her neck and swallow the unchewed entrails whole, she took a deep breath and then continued whittling the wooden skewer.

It’s more reliable to eat the mutton skewers first!

Anya thought rather painfully as she felt the unpleasant taste of the sheep's internal organs slowly sliding down her esophagus into her stomach.

Chapter 55 Sister, how many people are there in your meal?

While Qin Ruoshuang and Anya were busy respectively, Zhang Liu was dealing with the stone pit.

The plan he came up with last night was very simple. He would throw a thick layer of weeds on top of the fallen leaves and then light them with fire.

The next step is to wait.

Finally, the burned and cooled ash is used as a water absorbent to dry and sterilize the cave.

I jumped down and did some simple cleaning. It is expected to be finished in the afternoon and I will start making "roasted lamb in the naan pit"

I successfully ate a leg of lamb in the evening, and if nothing else, I can take some lamb with me on the road tomorrow.

But it's really just a thought.

In actual operation, Zhang Liu felt troubled in the first step.

The first is combustion efficiency.

Since there is no air inlet under the pit, although the weeds inside are all selected and dry, they are theoretically very suitable for burning.

But in fact, the burning is not complete, and even after the outermost layer is burned, there is no more movement below.

This forced him to stand by with a long stick and poke away the layer of ashes that blocked oxygen outside to help burn.

This can be regarded as barely solving the problem of combustion efficiency.

But a new problem appeared again. Under the cave pit was a layer of mud and humus about five centimeters deep, and there was still some black liquid in it.

Just poke it with a stick and the burning weed will come into contact with it.

It just makes a "chichi" sound and then goes off.

The key is that the smoke is still very strong and very dark.

It was much more smoky than the smoked lamb just now.

"Cough cough cough..." Zhang Liu stood beside him. He didn't know how his appearance was affected by the smoke, but he didn't stop coughing.

At the same time, the person who didn’t stop was still trying to pull the weeds in the pit.

With Zhang Liu's persistent efforts of adding weeds, fiddling to increase the combustion efficiency, and coughing crazily, he was finally so burned that he could no longer stand next to the stone.

Leaving this empty rocky place in embarrassment, Zhang Liu could only prepare to run back to the cave to help Anya. As for the pit, he could only wait for the cooling down before coming over to check the situation.

However, the combustion efficiency has increased significantly.

After the water in the pit was evaporated, the yellow and black leaves could not escape the fate of becoming combustion aids.

The originally thick and large black smoke has gradually become smaller. This is a sign that all the moisture inside has been dried out and it has begun to simmer.

Before Zhang Liu left, he also followed the old saying that more firewood makes the flames brighter, and he stuffed several handfuls of dry weeds into it.

And prop up the stirring wooden stick in the center as a path for air circulation.

At the same time, somewhere on the island, a girl looked up at the smoke that had been floating in the sky for a long time and was gradually disappearing, with an excited look on her face.

Her appearance and dress were almost identical to Qin Ruoshuang, who was bending down to collect firewood near the cave.

The only difference is the stockings covering her legs, Qin Ruoshuang's are black stockings.

She has white silk stockings, but they have turned a little yellow due to the trek these days.

"I hope it's a rescue!" Muttering to herself, the girl looked at the forest in front of her where the howling of wolves could be heard at night, and gritted her teeth.

Running outside to the beach, she began to move in the direction where the smoke was coming from.

Like Zhang Liu's choice, the girl would rather take a long detour through the beach than step into the forest at will.

........................

"Mutton skewers, mutton skewers, three skewers for one dollar!"

Near the cave, Anya was shouting hard.

Zhang Liu and Qin Ruoshuang were sitting nearby laughing.

After having enough food as a foundation, the mental state of the three people also improved several levels.

After laughing, Zhang Liu looked helplessly at Qin Ruoshuang next to him. Anya's funny behavior at this moment was caused by her.

She said she wanted to have a performance, so Anya volunteered to imitate "Mutton Kebab", and the performance was indeed very good.

"Watch what I'm doing." Qin Ruoshuang's face turned slightly red. She lowered her head and used a sharp flint to pull out a piece of coconut meat from the coconut shell. She directly picked it up and handed it to Zhang Liu's mouth, and said, "Are you hungry?"

"No..." He shook his head helplessly. Zhang Liu didn't know what to say. He just reached out to catch the coconut meat handed over by Qin Ruoshuang, then put it in his mouth and chewed it. The taste was still very bland.

However, the three of them had a protein-packed lunch.

After Anya finished chopping the last three skewers of mutton in her hand, she had already started eating.

Three mutton skewers per person, a coconut, a large bowl of mutton soup, and two egg yolks.

Just from the outside, it looks pretty good and can be considered rich.
