The Australian continent is a very magical place, because the development trajectory here is different from other continents. In places such as the African continent and Eurasia, mammals are viviparous, but Australian animals are different. Australian mammals are Marsupials.
If there are rats in Eurasia, there will be kangaroos in Australia; if there are bears in Eurasia, there will be wombats in Australia; if there are wolves in Eurasia, there will be thylacines in Australia. It can be said that most mammals will have an extra pocket when they arrive in Australia. , and the pockets often contain baby animals.
When it comes to Australia's representative animal, basically everyone thinks of the kangaroo, while a few people think of the koala, the koala.
Shen Feng saw a kangaroo on a grassland and immediately became happy. He said, "I've heard that kangaroo meat is edible, but I haven't eaten it yet. I'm going to try it today!"
After saying that, Shen Feng rushed towards the kangaroo in an instant. This kangaroo was a mutated kangaroo, with tight muscles all over its body and a height of four meters. After discovering the appearance of Shen Feng, a human, the kangaroo did not run away. Instead, he jumped towards Shen Feng, clenched his front paws into a fist, rushed in front of Shen Feng, and punched him.
After the mutation, the kangaroo has obviously become more courageous. It does not avoid humans when they see them. It seems that it is because it has gained powerful strength after the mutation, so it is confident that it can defeat the humans in front of it. Just look at the muscles of its arms and wave. The power of the punch must be more than one ton.
Facing the kangaroo's attacking fist, Shen Feng quickly dodged and dodged. Although the kangaroo's speed and strength were powerful, in front of Shen Feng, this strength and speed were still far behind.
After the kangaroo found that the enemy had moved away, he was not in a hurry. When he retracted his fist, he used his tail to support the ground and kicked his legs off the ground. This is the true meaning of severing the legs of his descendants. When kangaroos are fighting for mating partners, I like to use this attack method to specifically attack the enemy's lower three lanes.
Shen Feng jumped up from the ground with a move of "Plucking Onions on Dry Land", jumping more than five meters high, followed by a move of "Furious Wind", dozens of wind blades flew towards him. The kangaroo's intuition was not good, so he couldn't Feeling the danger, there was a "chichichichi..." noise all over his body, and the vital parts of his body were pierced by countless wind blades. Finally, his heart was pierced by the wind blades, and he died miserably from excessive blood loss.
Shen Feng ran around the wilderness with the kangaroo on his shoulders, and returned to the factory with the kangaroo weighing more than 900 kilograms. He said: "Brothers, look what good things I have brought you!"
Yue Hengyi was surprised when he saw the prey on Shen Feng's shoulder and said: "My teeth are sore from eating apples these days. My eldest brother is so awesome. He came back with the prey so quickly. Where did you find the kangaroo?" ah?"
"Thirty kilometers away on the grassland! This kangaroo is still preparing to boxing with me. He really doesn't know the heights of the world and doesn't take me seriously at all!" Shen Feng said with a hint of pride.
"Yes, you are the only one who can travel back and forth quickly. It seems that the hunting task in the future will still be left to you, big brother!" Yue Hengyi said as he put the kangaroo down. First, skin it, peel off the kangaroo's fur, and then unload it. A thigh, grilled on the fire.
The four of them were so hungry that they were dizzy after being vegetarians for the past few days. If they could stay full by eating fruits, then the people in Baodao would be full by eating eighteen pounds of pineapples per day. Without enough starch to supplement, no one would be able to do so. Eat enough just by relying on fruit.
Nowadays, the kangaroo meat is grilled on the fire, and the fragrance gradually spreads. This kangaroo has gone through long-term exercise. The meat on its body is very well-proportioned, neither fat nor thin, and the oil is sizzling after being roasted at high temperature. It came out and finally dropped into the fire.
Yue Hengyi rummaged through his luggage to find some seasonings, but only found salt and pepper, as well as ketchup, and he felt deeply regretful.
"What a pity, there is no chili powder and no cumin, so it lacks a lot of flavor!" Yue Hengyi said regretfully.
Shen Feng also interjected: "Next time you go out, you must bring chili and cumin. I found that to survive in the wild, you can basically only eat barbecue. If you only add salt to the barbecue, it's completely safe."

It’s tasteless, it’s best to bring a portion of Thirteen Incense.”
Shen Feng can hardly stand the daily life of plain barbecue. There is no taste at all. There is no comparison to eating barbecue in China. Ordering hundreds of meat skewers and two bottles of beer will make you live like a fairy.
"Come on, I don't want to go far next time. I would rather fight bloody battles on the battlefield than eat this kind of primitive barbecue in the deep mountains and forests!" Yue Hengyi quickly refused. As for the experience in the wild, this time is enough. No matter how many similar situations he encounters, he doesn't want to encounter them.
Shen Feng thought about it, it was better to live a life of being hungry and full in the wild. Wouldn't it be better to stay at home and eat Du Xinshi's delicious meals?
One kangaroo thigh is not enough for several people. The main reason is that Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi have big appetites. Others are eating slowly, but these two are gobbling it up. They also consume the most energy every day. Now they naturally need it. Add more.
Ever since, with the efforts of Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi, half of the kangaroos were eaten by them. To be honest, the taste of kangaroo meat is average, similar to mutton, not even as good as mutton. No wonder it has not been cultivated on a large scale before. , the taste is not that outstanding, and it grows slowly, so there is no need to raise it.
No matter how bad the taste is, it is still meat. After several people had eaten, in the evening, the rain had stopped. The storm that lasted for half a month finally ended. Although the sky was gloomy, in Slotko's eyes, the current The weather is already very good, and strong light can be seen on the distant horizon, which means that the clouds will end soon.
"Take a night's rest and get ready to go!" Shen Feng said to the people around him.
"Brother Feng, we'd better find a way to speed up tomorrow. After arriving in Melbourne, we still have to look for radio stations and ships, and we also need to collect some food and other things. After all, we will waste several days when we get to Melbourne!" Yue Hengyi hurriedly said Said to Shen Feng.
Shen Feng glanced at Li Gui and Slotke on one side, and said helplessly: "There is no way, the speed of the two of us is okay, but the speed of these two is not so good."
While Shen Feng was talking, Sloter suddenly fell to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
"It seems that this old man is about to evolve. By tomorrow, he can barely keep up with us, right?" Yue Hengyi saw the old man suddenly fell into a deep sleep, and understood the old man's current state. After eating the meat of the mutated beast, He also began to evolve.
Shen Feng looked at the remaining half of the kangaroo and asked, "What should I do with the kangaroo meat? It seems not easy to preserve."
"Forget about making smoked meat!" Yue Hengyi suggested.
"Then you go pick some cypress branches and leaves. I'll build a kiln. Li Gui, go and cut the kangaroo meat into strips. Don't be idle!" Shen Feng thought it was good and directed the two people around him.
Yue Hengyi went directly to collect cypress branches and leaves. Not all kinds of smoke can be used to smoke meat. The best thing is to smoke it with the smoke of cypress branches and leaves. The meat you can get in the end will also have a fragrance. If you use eucalyptus leaves or something else to fumigate it, If so, all the harmful substances will be attached to the meat.
Shen Feng took advantage of this time to build a kiln. There were many wooden boards in the factory. The kiln was on two floors. The lower floor was used to stack charcoal and cypress branches and leaves. The upper floor was for sticks. The kangaroo meat was cut into strips and hung. Up there, just put the cypress trees on the charcoal fire to seal the kiln and let the smoke fumigate the kangaroo meat.
Yue Hengyi quickly returned to the factory with cypress branches and leaves. The most abundant tree in Australia is actually eucalyptus. This tree can release toxins in the soil and kill surrounding trees, so it expands very quickly. Moreover, the bark of eucalyptus contains A lot of eucalyptus oil can easily catch fire. However, after the fire is over, the eucalyptus trees will grow quickly, so in the end there are many eucalyptus trees in Australia.
"Brother Feng, I saw koalas in the woods just now. I wanted to catch two and show them to you, but I found that the little koalas were actually eating the excrement of the big koalas, and I immediately lost interest!" Yue Hengyi casually talked about what he had just seen.
Shen Feng placed it aside
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Cypress leaves, while explaining to Yue Hengyi: "The reason why little koalas eat feces is because their intestines cannot digest eucalyptus leaves. If they are eaten raw, they will be poisoned to death. Therefore, they need to get the feces from their parents." You think it's funny to get some colonies of bacteria that can break down poisonous eucalyptus leaves, but that's the little koala's helplessness."
"This is really enlightening. I didn't expect such a cute animal like the koala to be so disgusting." Yue Hengyi muttered.
The next day, everyone was preparing to set off. Slotke had also woken up. He was an old man in his fifties. Fortunately, his physical fitness was relatively good and he survived evolution. After obtaining enough viral proteins, he also Became an evolver.
"Old man, are you foreigners in such good health? You are over fifty years old, and you can become an evolutionizer. Your physical fitness is not bad!" Shen Feng said to Slotke with a smile.
Li Gui quickly translated what Shen Feng meant.
Slotke quickly said: "Actually, I often work in the field and climb mountains a lot. I always insist on exercising, so my body is better. Otherwise, some elderly people would have collapsed!"
Shen Feng nodded and said: "Let's go!"
Everyone then headed east. If there was a path, they would follow it. If there was no path, they would have to go into the mountains.
There are many woods in the southeastern part of Australia. After all, the monsoon brings abundant rainfall every year. Compared with the large desert in central Australia, this is a better place.
The clouds in the sky have dispersed, and the sun shines on the ground again. There is mud in the mountain forest. Shen Feng and Yue Hengyi lead the way, holding wooden sticks in their hands to push away all the surrounding weeds and branches. This is also What has to be done is that there are too many poisons in Australia. If you are accidentally bitten by a viper or viper, you can basically say goodbye to this world. Therefore, the two of you need to ensure that there are no poisons on the way forward. of poison.
After walking in the woods for two hours, the four of them found a road. It was a road in the true sense. It was an asphalt road. Although the road surface was not regularly maintained, it was difficult for vegetation to grow on the asphalt road. And this road was exactly extending towards the east.
"According to my speculation, this road is probably leading to Melbourne. We can get there as long as we follow this road!" Slotke said quickly.
If you find a road, the way forward will be much easier. Following the road always saves energy. Otherwise, you have to be wary of possible poisons and find directions and roads in the forest, which makes it particularly difficult to move forward.
However, at this moment, Li Gui pointed to the sky in the distance and said, "Look, are the clouds in the sky turning red?"
Shen Feng quickly looked towards the eastern sky, only to find that the clouds in the sky had turned red at some point, but it was clearly noon, and it was impossible to see the morning glow at this time.
"What's all the fuss about, isn't it just that the clouds turned red? This is auspicious, do you understand? Forget it, a bunch of foreigners don't know what auspiciousness is! You should just follow us honestly!" Yue Hengyi glanced at the sky. I don’t care anymore, isn’t it just that the clouds have turned red? It’s just the refraction of light that causes this.
Li Gui did not dare to express his opinion to Yue Hengyi and could only move on. However, he had been observing the sky carefully, and his intuition told him that this scene was definitely abnormal.
"The clouds have become redder! Mr. Shen, should we wait and see first?" Li Gui continued.
Everyone stopped walking and looked at the sky. The clouds that were originally light red before had turned into blood red.
Yue Hengyi still insisted on his point of view: "What do you know? This is a good sign! I left Hangu Pass in the west, and the purple air came ninety thousand miles east! Now the front is red, which reflects our red heart like a flame, continue Walk!"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, I feel something is wrong too!" Shen Feng interrupted Yue Hengyi's words. He felt that the temperature around him was getting higher and higher.
