"Delicious food?" Hearing Gu Jianjun's words, Gu Yu's eyes could not help but light up.
Gu Jianjun had gone to Gu Yu's house for free meals before, so he knew how picky Gu Yu was. Even so, he still said that it was delicious, which made Gu Yu a little expectant.
They followed Gu Jianjun for about half an hour. This place was already very far from the area where humans lived. Usually, even if it was mushrooms, the people from the nearby villages would not go so deep. Basically, there were only three professions that would appear here.
One was poaching. Now that hunting was prohibited, all the Pigmen were poachers.
The second was to come to the deep mountains to find medicinal herbs. Although most of the medicinal herbs could be artificially cultivated, the wild medicinal effects would undoubtedly be better.
The third type was the imperial court's forest protection garden. They came into the mountain to see the trees or creatures.
But even if there were three kinds of people who would come, there were too few of them. As a result, there was almost no way for anyone to step out.
With every step he took, Gu Jianjun had to hit the grass with his cane.
This was to alert the snake. It was not winter now, and the snakes were very active. After hibernation, it was time for them to replenish their energy.
There weren't many poisonous snakes in Heilong Province because there were too many natural enemies. Most of the giant eagles and eagles were in the north. For example, golden eagles and Tiger-headed Sea Eagles were in the northeast. There were too many of these things, so the snake race couldn't develop.
For example, the king cobra, which was very common in the south, was not found in the northeast.
The famous venomous snakes in Heilong Province could be counted on one's fingers. There were only a few types in total, and they were all vipers, such as mud balls and pheasant necks. This led to the fact that there were not many people who ate snakes in the northeast. In addition, rabbits and pheasants were not often eaten in the northeast...
Therefore, to be honest, wild animals were relatively safe in the northeast.
They walked and stopped along the way. Finally, Gu Jianjun brought Gu Yu to a few trees that were not tall. When Gu Yu saw these trees, he smiled and walked up.
"Wild blueberries?" Looking at these wild blueberry trees, Gu Yu laughed.
Blueberries were a very famous fruit in the northeast, especially in recent years. It was mainly because this fruit was very good for people's health.
Blueberries were sold almost everywhere in the country, but very few people had ever eaten the most authentic wild blueberries, including Gu Yu.
"These things grow best in late May and late July, but there should be quite a few ripe ones now. You can pick some and eat them while walking.”Seeing Gu Yu's gaze, Gu Jianjun also smiled and said. After which, he and Gu Yu began to pluck.
Although the trees were not at their best yet, there were quite a few ripe ones now.
After stuffing the ripe blueberries into his pocket, Gu Yu even chopped a branch and wrapped it up. He was prepared to go back and see if it would survive. As for whether it would survive, was there a need to consider?
With the well water, this branch would not die no matter what.
Gu Yu would always carry at least a bottle of well water with him. With just a little bit of this branch, it could also last until it reached home.
After picking enough strawberries and packing the branches, Gu Yu and Gu Jianjun continued to head deeper into the mountains. As they walked, they ate a strawberry from time to time. Although the mountain path was not easy to walk, the two of them did not feel bored.
However, the further they walked, the more amazed Gu Jianjun felt towards Gu Yu.
Initially, he knew that Gu Yu had a lot of strength, but having strength was different from walking in the deep mountains. Walking in the forest required dexterity and strength, and Gu Yu had never entered the mountains before. He originally thought that the two of them would not be able to go far, but now it seemed that Gu Yu could! Perhaps he was testing Gu Yu on purpose.
Gu Jianjun did not rest even when he reached the first resting spot. He continued to walk in. Gu Yu was naturally fine as well. He was a grandmaster of wilderness survival.
The two of them walked all the way in, and only stopped when it was almost noon. They listened to the sounds around them, then found a stream to rest for a while, replenish some water, and eat something.
However, before Gu Yu could take out the food that he had prepared last night, the grass shook. The Mountain King and the five dogs, who had disappeared into the mountain, emerged from the grass. The Mountain King had a wild rabbit in his mouth, and the five dogs had two in their mouths.
"Not bad, your Mountain King is learning very quickly. It can hunt so quickly!”Gu Jianjun said with a smile as he looked at the dogs walking over.
The Mountain King had never learned this since it was young. In other words, it had learned it from these dogs after entering the mountain. After learning for an entire morning, it could kill rabbits. This was indeed an improvement. After hearing Gu Jianjun's praise, the Mountain King also glanced at its former master. Then, it came to Gu Yu's side with the rabbit in its mouth.
He took the dead rabbit and looked at it. Good heavens, this rabbit was not light.
An average rabbit wouldn't grow too big. This wasn't Australia. Wild rabbits didn't have any natural enemies. They would grow as big as they wanted. This was the Da An Mountains. Wild rabbits lived at the bottom of the food chain. Basically, a dog, a cat, or even a rat (weasel, mink, ferret...) could kill them. Therefore, rabbits in the Da An Mountains wouldn't grow very big.
However, the one caught by the Mountain King was about three pounds. This was already considered a big one here. It was even bigger than the two wild rabbits caught by the five dogs.
"Just in time. Let's eat roasted rabbit for lunch!”Gu Yu said with a smile as he mentioned the rabbit. Then, he took out his knife and prepared to deal with the rabbit. There happened to be water here. It was convenient to wash it with water after dealing with it.
"There's still one good thing missing from the roasted rabbit. There should be some nearby. Follow me!”Seeing that Gu Yu was about to make a move, Gu Jianjun smacked his lips and suddenly thought of another delicacy. Then, he smiled and led Gu Yu to a distant forest.
However, just as he entered the forest, Gu Yu heard a buzzing sound. This sound was not the sound of flies, but much louder. At this moment, Gu Yu also saw a large black bee slowly flying past him.
"Bees? Honey?" Looking at the bees that disappeared into the forest in a few moments, Gu Yu looked at Gu Jianjun with some doubt and surprise.
"It's the Black Wasps. We have to make some preparations before going over.”Seeing that Gu Yu had already guessed it, Gu Jianjun smiled and said.
