Chapter 51 Frustration
“Captain, come quickly!”
Xia Zhi walked up to the camel and gently stroked the camel with his 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 them, so let them eat some first. If they have something in their stomachs, it's best to get some cactus to add some water to them.”
Xia Zhi was not polite at all and directly summoned Captain Zhou.
It doesn't take much guessing to imagine that these people also traveled over mountains and ridges for more than a day to get here.
Since the camel had to carry two of them, it was natural to treat the camel well 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.
It feels like Xia Zhi has never been so kind to me.
These days, no one is as good as a camel.
Just go to work without complaining.
Other little warriors also came one day. They did not 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.
At the summer solstice they finally set out.
Xia Zhi consciously climbed in front of the camel.
She is thin, so it is quite comfortable to sit in this position. It would be a bit uncomfortable 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 Xia Zhi almost as if he was in his arms, his face turned red again.
Work hard to distract yourself.
Zhou Zhengan, an experienced leader, commanded the camels to get up and everyone started on their way.
Xia Zhi sat in front, gradually becoming a little sluggish.
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.
The 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 over the camel if he didn't pay attention at all.
But it seems that nothing I do is suitable.
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 Xia Zhi is like a chicken eating rice. He just took a nap on the camel and never got under the camel.
As if she was on a camel's back.
Zhou Zhengan was surprised, this girl was really different.
He found out that Xia Zhi was very familiar with camels when they met for the first time, and now it was even more clear that Xia Zhi was familiar with the habits of camels and even more familiar with other camels.
It is impossible to fall even if you roll on your own.
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.
Zhou Zhengan couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. Anyway, it was just like a kitten scratching there, scratching his heart and lungs curiously.
Finally arrived at the camping place, and after walking for several hours, they were only halfway out, and there was no way they could take a long detour at this time.
But they did not dare to continue riding camels after dark. First, the visibility was not good at night, the terrain was not easy 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 young 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 the atmosphere was a bit awkward sitting in front of the flames.
No food!
The little warriors never thought that this time they would encounter the opponent who would directly burn 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.
Other than drinking some water, they really had no choice.
Zhou Zhengan winked at Jiang Yifan, turned around and left with the two young soldiers.
It's not a problem for them if others don't have anything to eat.
When training in the wild, they have long been accustomed to how to survive without any external aid.
What is this?
An hour later, Zhou Zhengan and Jiang Yifan returned with their young comrade Xiong Jiongjiu in high spirits.
He carried ten gerbils in his hand, all of which had been skinned and cleaned.
Of course he was also carrying two sand grouse.
This thing is not to mention quite fat.
While they were catching these, they discovered a water source in the distance, which was very convenient for everyone to replenish the water source.
When they came back, they found that the meat was already roasting in front of the fire.
They left and Xia Zhi took the little comrade with them. 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.
We saw the summer solstice just now.
The roots of Apocynum can be eaten, and the stems of Goliath can be eaten.
It also tastes good. If they are grilled and eaten, it will taste better after being heated.
By the way, everyone also needs to replenish their water supply. They must look for water around them.
In the end, he accidentally hit and 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 be beaten casually.
The wild boar is followed by its father and mother, 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 got 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 Cistanche salina.
This plant has a salty taste because it grows in saline-alkali soil.
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.
Slice the plant into slices and place directly in the middle of the roast.
As the fat from the meat sizzles, the salt from the plants is also absorbed into the fat.
The young comrades gathered around the campfire happily, with the smell of barbecue wafting from their noses.
When Zhou Zhengan and the others smelled this fragrance when they came back, they were 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.
