As the system notification ended, Zhou Ye's mind was immediately filled with a bunch of knowledge related to setting up traps.
With the infusion of knowledge, Zhou Ye felt that he could easily grasp many tips about setting traps and the things to take note of when choosing a trap location.
As Zhou Ye recalled this knowledge, he felt like an experienced hunter. As long as he wanted to, he could set up any trap easily. It was as easy as eating and drinking.
With this knowledge of traps, Zhou Ye was full of confidence in his future matches.
After absorbing the knowledge in his mind, Zhou Ye called Wukong and continued to search for water.
Now that the trap was set up, all that was left was to wait. As for whether they could hunt prey, it was entirely up to luck.
However, after absorbing the knowledge of setting traps, Zhou Ye was very confident in the traps he set. As long as the rabbit passed through this beast path, it would definitely fall for it.
"Squeak squeak…"
Wu Kong led the way and asked Zhou Ye curiously what he was doing.
Wukong had been squatting on the branch and had witnessed Zhou Ye's series of actions. With its knowledge, Wukong had no idea what Zhou Ye was doing.
Seeing Wukong's curiosity, Zhou Ye explained to him.
"I was making a trap just now. It's a trap set up to hunt wild rabbits. I just found a beast path for wild rabbits to look for food, so I set up traps on their path.”
Zhou Ye paused and calculated the time he saw the wild rabbit. He continued,
"The rabbit we saw just now should have gone out to look for food. Judging from the time, we should have some harvest when we return to the camp later.”
Under Wu Kong's guidance, Zhou Ye soon heard the sound of flowing water. Zhou Ye was delighted.
From the sound of running water, it should be a flowing stream. As long as there was running water, there was no need to worry about the safety of the water source.
Except for a very small number of running water that contained toxic substances, there was basically no need to worry about the safety of your water if you encountered running water in the wild.
Hearing the sound of running water, Wukong cried out in excitement and quickened his pace.
Zhou Ye followed behind Wu Kong. After passing through a forest, a clear stream appeared in front of him.
The flow rate of this stream wasn't high, but from the speed of the water flow, Zhou Ye determined that the source of this stream should be the mountain spring water.
Zhou Ye followed the stream and looked for the source of the stream.
Along the way, Zhou Ye saw many footprints left behind by wild animals. From the number of footprints, it seemed that there were many wild animals on this island.
Fortunately, Zhou Ye didn't see any carnivorous footprints among the footprints. This meant that there weren't any large carnivorous animals on the island.
This way, Zhou Ye's sense of security increased by a lot. This way, he didn't have to worry about being ambushed by these hunters.
They came to the source of the stream. It was a stream formed by spring water flowing out from under a stone wall. The water output of this spring was still very large, and it was endless.
After checking the spring water, Zhou Ye was completely relieved. In the future, he wouldn't have to worry about the water supply anymore.
The spring was about a thousand meters away from the camp, but the road was not easy to walk through the dense forest.
However, these weren't too big of a problem. Anyway, Zhou Ye and Wu Kong didn't need a lot of water. They came to fetch water once a day and it was enough for him.
He looked at the environment around the spring. Because the spring was naturally formed, there were many dead branches and leaves in the spring water.
Although the spring water kept flowing and looked very clear, Zhou Ye didn't dare to drink the spring water just like that.
Zhou Ye took out the stone axe and started cleaning the spring. He cleared all the withered grass and fallen leaves in the stream and dug a small pit near the spring.
Zhou Ye laid a layer of stones at the bottom of the pit. This simple water storage pit was completed.
As the spring water continued to gush out, the water flow carried away all the muddy water in the puddle. Because the puddle was paved with stones, the puddle soon became clear.
Zhou Ye nodded in satisfaction as he watched the clear spring water fill the puddle and continue flowing along the original stream.
Zhou Ye didn't find any animal footprints around the spring water. This meant that this wasn't a drinking place for wild animals.
In the future, as long as he paid attention to the hygiene of the waterhole and prevented it from being contaminated, this water source would become a stable source of drinking water for Zhou Ye.
After dealing with the water source, Zhou Ye brought Wukong back. On the way back, Zhou Ye would occasionally make marks on the trees.
The trees here were too dense. As it had always been in a primitive environment, there were no roads at all. To make it easier to get water in the future, Zhou Ye made some marks to prevent himself from getting lost in the forest.
"Squeak squeak…"
When Wukong saw Zhou Ye making marks on the tree, he barked at Zhou Ye and urged him to speed up. He was a little hungry.
"Are you a monkey? This is your territory. Can't you find something to eat yourself?”
However, Wukong didn't listen to Zhou Ye at all. He pointed at Zhou Ye's basket and asked for the berries.
"You can't eat these berries. You have to bring them back. If you're hungry, you can go find them yourself.”
Zhou Ye didn't want Wukong to eat the berries in his basket. He still had some use for these berries. He couldn't let Wukong eat them.
Zhou Ye said and suddenly stopped. He was attracted by a plant under the tree.
Zhou Ye ran to the plant and observed it carefully. He was pleasantly surprised.
Zhou Ye quickly started digging. In a short while, he had dug out the entire plant.
"Haha, I didn't expect there to be wild ginger here. Now there's seasoning.”
Zhou Ye didn't expect to find ginger here. Although the wild ginger wasn't as big as the artificially cultivated ginger, it was better than nothing.
In the past, there had been no seasonings, and the cooking of food had been too monotonous. Now that he had this ginger, the cooking of delicacies in the future would be even richer.
Moreover, ginger was also a very good Chinese medicine. It had a very good effect on preventing colds. Although the temperature had started to rise, who could guarantee that it would not suddenly drop?
Zhou Ye carefully put away the ginger and began to look around. There must be other ginger growing nearby.
As expected, Zhou Ye soon found a few more stalks of wild ginger nearby. He dug out all the wild ginger and had a good harvest.
Zhou Ye dug out a total of eight pieces of ginger. With these pieces of ginger, Zhou Ye could eat them for a long time.
After packing up the ginger, he brought Wukong to the place where the trap was placed. He calculated the time and found that the sky had already begun to darken.
The wild rabbits that had gone out to hunt for food should have returned to their nests. Whether or not there would be any harvest today would depend on this.
