Survival From The Wilderness: Mission Master

Chapter 112 Traces of Other Beasts

When I returned to the cave, the sky was completely dark.

This was mainly because on the way back, at the request of Ye Qing, some simple processing was carried out on the traces left by the place where his group walked, which took a lot of time.

Today, a few people were very tired. Of course, the four bear paws didn't even bother to do it. After throwing a large piece of bear meat to Xiao Hei, this stuff gnawed by himself.

Although Xiao Lan had no merits, he received a lot of treatment, anyway, Ye Qing would not treat them badly.

As for Ye Qing themselves, they boiled a pot of fresh broth and filled their stomachs with rice.

After that, I fiddled with the radio for a while, because the best signal time period has passed, so naturally there is no gain.

When Zhao Ling was cooking, Funi had already taken out the energy skin again, processed the part that Ye Qing had removed, and then used sandstone to remove the remaining meat and fat on it, and finally cleaned it. Hang it outside to air dry.

So after dinner, the three of them had nothing to do and went to bed early.

When I got up the next day, the blizzard remained, and the temperature seemed to have dropped a bit. Although the magnitude was not large, Ye Qing and the others could still feel it clearly.

For this reason, Zhao Ling and Funi also had to admire Ye Qing's foresight.

If this trend continues, wolf skin alone cannot really keep warm.

Thinking of the bone of the bear yesterday, Ye Qing plans to go there again today, otherwise, if the temperature drops again later, he will have to throw it away, which is a pity.

In fact, this bear bone Ye Qing doesn't know what it's useful for. He just heard from the old people in the village before that it seems to be used as medicine, mainly for rheumatism.

No one of them has this problem now, but it is better than nothing. Besides, bone broth is also very delicious.

In addition, although there are a lot of food reserves now, the ghost knows how bad the weather is. If it can, Ye Qing also wants to cut some more meat back, so he is prepared.

This time only Ye Qing and Funi went there, not even Xiao Hei.

I don't know if it was too tired from yesterday's battle, and his expression has been recovering since he came back.

Because of the existence of a special connection, Ye Qing knew that it was unharmed, so he didn't care about it. It happened to be in the cave to protect Zhao Ling.

As for Zhao Ling, the fresh meat that she brought back yesterday needs her to marinate. Although it was only cut a little, the dog noodles can be extremely powerful. These meats are almost as good as the meat of a smaller New Year pig. It is enough. She has been busy for most of the day.

And because of the weather, Xiao Lan didn't go out very much recently, so Ye Qing would only take it unless it was all out. Now that Zhao Ling and Xiao Hei are there, there is no need to take it.

After eating breakfast, Ye Qing and Funi set off. Except for their saber and saber, plus a machete and some hemp rope, the two of them didn't bring anything, everything is light, and the main pursuit is speed, anyway. There is nothing to take.

Following the road that they had walked yesterday, Ye Qing and Funi checked again and found that there were no traces of other animals or people walking by, so they were relieved.

After all, I walked in a hurry yesterday, and covering up the traces is just a simple cover of the footprints with snow. If you really look for it, you can easily find the traces they have walked.

Because they were not as cautiously worried about being spotted by the black panther as they did yesterday, it took only an hour for the two to get to the snowy field this time.

But when they approached the bear's body, Ye Qing found some messy footprints on the snowy field.

The footprints are very shallow, it seems that it has been a while, so that only a shallow mark is left, and it is impossible to see what animal's footprints are, but these footprints seem to be large and small, and they should not be the same kind. Left by animals.

When it came to the bear's corpse, the two of them were even more shocked.

When they left yesterday, although they had cut away a lot of meat, the dog's face could be so huge, Ye Qing and the others only cut away the most meaty parts of the legs, and didn't move at all.

But now, the corpse of this bear has almost only one skeleton left, and the meat on it has been sprayed so much. No trace can be seen from the tooth marks, but Ye Qing dare to conclude that there is definitely more than one. A beast, a beast alone can't make this effect at all, even if it's the same kind of a bear, it is impossible to wipe out the corpse of the original bear.

Minnie looked a little ugly, looked at Ye Qing, and asked in an uncertain tone: "It seems that there are more beasts on this island than we thought."

Ye Qing's complexion was also not good-looking, not because his trophies were robbed, but because of deeper reasons.

He said: ``It's not surprising that this island is so big and has the same complete food chain as the outside, but in such weather, there are still so many ferocious beasts, which is beyond our expectation.

After a pause, he pointed to the traces on the ground that were more obvious than the previously found footprints and said: "You see, these places seem to be left by the fight, but the traces of our fight yesterday, after a night of wind and snow, morning. It was almost covered, but these can still be seen now, which shows that these traces are newly left. It is very likely that the Dobo beast fought to snatch the corpse of this bear.

"This is indeed something to be wary of."

Fanny deeply agreed: "From this point, it can be seen that although this kind of weather is bad, there are still many wild animals who are not afraid of the cold, but their food is extremely scarce. This will be for a corpse. The situation of 460 fights is very unfavorable to us.

"Yes." Ye Qing nodded in agreement.

He knew what Fanny meant. These animals were originally at the top of the food chain on this island, but the sudden weather caused many animals to freeze to death and starve to death. Although these beasts are not afraid of the severe cold, they are facing food shortages.

That is to say, in this situation, if someone such as oneself and others accidentally encounter a beast, it is very likely that the other party will treat them and others as food and launch an attack the first time they meet.

This is definitely not a good signal for myself and others.

Because it means that, once met, it is a battle of life and death.

I was in the mood to come and deal with the spoils that I didn't have time for last night, but now I was overshadowed by this incident.

Feeling a little irritable, Ye Qing and Funi hurriedly cleaned up the corpse of the bear, took as many bones as they could, and left directly.

It’s impossible for these bones to be used in soup, but they should be fine if they are kept in the sun and ground into powder for use as medicine.

When they went back, the two of them were not too troublesome. They carefully cleaned up all the traces left by the places they walked. Never let other beasts or people wandering in this forest follow these traces to find the cave over there. go.
