Don't look at the honest and cute seals in the aquarium and think that they are some kind of bad thing.
Before humans landed in Antarctica, seals were the overlords of Antarctica.
The cute Mr. Penguin is chased by seals every day.
The weight of an adult light seal is approximately 200 to 500 kilograms.
And heavy seals can reach more than one ton.
Such a strong seal needs to kill at least five penguins every day to fill its stomach.
In other words, killing one seal is equivalent to saving more than a thousand penguins in one year.
…
"Then just hunt one, one is enough for us to last until the end!"
After some earnest persuasion by Su Mingzhe, Jing Ruyi finally stopped being stubborn.
However, Jing Ruyi still raised a question:
"I heard that seal meat is very unpalatable, and there are no condiments here. How are you going to make seal meat?"
"This... the mountain man has his own clever plan!"
Su Mingzhe, who has the skills of a chef, is naturally not afraid of not being able to handle a seal well.
However, before going to hunt seals, Su Mingzhe must first prepare an igloo as a future kitchen.
After all, if the seal meat is cooked in a cabin, if the smell is too fishy, everyone will not sleep at night.
It took a day to build a small igloo.
Su Mingzhe began to make preparations for hunting seals again.
Seal skin is thick and heavy.
Even if they are killed, it would be troublesome to transport them back.
Su Mingzhe is indeed strong, but the seal weighs at least several hundred kilograms.
Another long day has passed.
Su Mingzhe finally made the skis and sled.
At the same time, he appeared with three spears on his back.
…
When exploring the route before, Su Mingzhe found the seal closest to the cabin, which was about seven kilometers away.
An hour later.
Su Mingzhe saw a seal, which weighed about three to four hundred kilograms.
Perhaps because they are used to being the overlord in Antarctica, seals have no concept of natural enemies in their eyes.
When Su Mingzhe found his position and prepared to sprint, the seal looked at the murderous Su Mingzhe, but he still showed no sign of resistance or vigilance.
Waiting until Su Mingzhe pointed his spear at the seal, penetrated it into the head, and completed a killing blow, the seal couldn't understand how a weak human could "kill" his thick-skinned self.
…
After killing the seal with one blow, Su Mingzhe quickly took out his military knife and bled the seal.
Generally, the meat of carnivorous animals will be very smelly if they are not bled.
The bleeding time does not need to be too long. Two or three minutes is enough to cut the artery.
Then comes peeling.
The bleeding speed is fast, and the seal's body is still warm.
Peeling the skin at this time is not difficult.
Once the seal carcass loses its temperature, it will take several times more effort to skin it.
After skinning, it is dismembered.
…
"court death!"
As soon as Su Mingzhe cut off the seal's head, he saw a skua falling from the sky, hoping to get something for nothing.
The skua is a global predatory seabird.
As soon as they hear the name of a bird, everyone knows the virtues of this bird, and then they feel disgusted.
In fact, the appearance of the skua is not very ugly, with clean brown feathers on its wings, a thick and shiny black beak, as curved as a rook, and big round eyes with piercing eyes.
With such a good appearance, if he wasn't a thief, he would probably be loved by many environmentally friendly animals.
Grabbing a few snowballs, Su Mingzhe directly used his "magical power of snapping fingers" and beat the skua to the head with blood.
Seeing their companions being killed, the other skuas were so frightened that they did not dare to land again.
…
From hunting to dismemberment, it took Su Mingzhe half an hour in total.
Then the sled was assembled, the pieces of meat were piled up, and Su Mingzhe immediately pulled it back to the cabin.
It takes an hour to come.
When I went back, I had hundreds of kilograms of extra meat and walked for seven or eight hours before I got back to the cabin.
…
"Hmm... delicious!"
Natasha ate a piece of barbecue cooked by a man and immediately raised her thumbs in praise.
Jing Ru agreed and took a bite carefully, but then he frowned:
"It smells a little fishy..."
"It shouldn't be hard to swallow, right?"
Su Mingzhe had done his best to process the seal meat, but when he saw that Jing Ruyi was still not satisfied, he felt a little frustrated for a while:
"Does it taste bad?"
"Maybe I can't get used to eating these things."
Jing Ruyi smiled apologetically at the man and continued eating.
In the past few days, she and Natasha ate rice porridge and raw canned food every day, and their mouths were full of food. Now that they could have barbecue to supplement their nutrition, they naturally didn't want to be picky.
…
The thirteenth day of the disaster.
Su Mingzhe went out to search for the fifth time.
This time, before he set off, he brought a lot of barbecue with him:
"You two, please be safe. It will probably take me two or three days to come back this time..."
"Be safe too!"
Jing Ruyi knew that Su Mingzhe needed so long to go out this time to avoid wasting time on the way back and forth, which made her feel even more sorry for the man.
"Don't worry, I will rush back on the third day!"
After Su Mingzhe said that, he no longer looked at the reluctant eyes of the two women, opened the door, and strode towards the distance.
…
Walk after walk, chirp after chirp.
In fact, there are many research stations in Antarctica, about one hundred and fifty.
There are seven research stations near the Great Wall Station.
Unfortunately, finding these eight research stations in the vast white Antarctic continent is no less difficult than finding an oasis in Lop Nur.
In the blink of an eye, forty-eight hours passed.
This time.
Su Mingzhe climbed a total of thirty mountains. Seeing that time was almost up, he hurried back.
Five hours later.
After taking the wrong route twice, Su Mingzhe finally saw the cabin again.
…
When the two women saw the man coming back, they let go of their worries.
This time, it was the longest time a man had been away, a full fifty-six hours.
When Su Mingzhe woke up, it was already the sixteenth day of the disaster.
…
"A quarter of it!"
Taking the map drawn by the man and doing some simple calculations, Jing Ruyi reported good news to the man.
"A quarter of it?"
Su Mingzhe was shocked when he heard:
"Ten days, a quarter, that means if you go out for another month, you will definitely be able to find it?"
"Yes, we will be saved in another month at most!"
Jing Ruyi looked at the man's long stubble, suddenly smiled softly and said:
"Fuchun, let's take a day off today."
Just as the two were sharing their joy with each other, Bai Nu, who was sleeping in Jing Ruyi, suddenly said:
"Tuhao, can you help me take another bath?"
At this time, nine days have passed since the last time the three of them took a bath.
Natasha was afraid that she would get bedsores, so she could only ask her man to take another bath for her when he was free.
"No problem, I'll boil the water right now!"
Su Mingzhe boiled the water quickly. After a while, he got the hot water, then he took Bai Nu off the bed and started scrubbing her.
After resting for half a month, Bai Nu's injuries were mostly healed. Even if she moved her hands and feet slightly, the wounds would not be affected.
Just like that, Bai Nu, with the help of the man, scrubbed clean, and then, with the support of the man, moved around the cabin for a while, and then lay down on the bed.
…
After all three of them had taken a shower, Su Mingzhe went fishing again.
When he came back with a full harvest, he made fish porridge.
