Joanna's enthusiasm increased when she heard that there was meat to eat.
The prey brought back by Fran the last few times has long been eaten.
As for people, it is like this. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
In the first few days, I was grateful to God for being able to eat glutinous rice. Now I am still not satisfied with two meals of white flour steamed buns a day, and I still want to eat meat.
All current meat is provided by Fran Hunt.
The last wild hunt left Fran completely desolate. Fortunately, he still had a base camp to return to.
If Fran had left the Evangelical Church out of anger, now that he had lost all his survival tools and was injured, he might not be able to survive.
Since ancient times, survival has been extremely difficult. Human beings have struggled desperately for tens of millions of years, and it has only become easier in the past one or two hundred years.
Egger found an old white gauze skirt, and he took Joanna to use scissors, wire and wooden sticks to make a not very pretty, but very practical insect catching net.
Then Joanna saw Egger excitedly carrying the newly made insect net out. She secretly followed him to the gate and saw Egger squatting on a place paved with cement boards, stirring vigorously.
What a pity.
Egg sighed slightly in his heart.
It has been cool in autumn these days. If we had come a few days earlier, we would have gained more.
After taking the insect catching net around for a few times, all the round white cuties in sight were caught in the net, and then Joanna watched in horror as Egg came back happily carrying the colorful insect catching net.
Joanna didn't even dare to come forward and talk to Iger now. She was really afraid that Iger would definitely answer that this was what he meant by eating meat just now.
Egger put the net in the mud next to the yard. He first went to the kitchen to find a big basin, and then added some salt to it.
When I was a child, I always liked to add some salt to the water when washing things at home. Anyway, after adding salt, there are no bacteria that cannot be killed.
After coming out with the big basin, Egg went to the well and picked up a big bucket of water. He carried the water and the big basin and returned to the insect net.
The cold well water rushes down, and the smell of farmhouse comes out instantly.
As the well water diluted and most of the strange things were washed away, Iger carefully squatted down, picked up the round ones squirming on the mud floor one by one with chopsticks made of wooden strips, and threw them into the table filled with salt.
In a large basin of water.
Yuangun swims happily in salt water. People can survive in highly corrosive environments. There is no difference between salt and clear water.
After carefully putting all the tumblers into the basin, Egg looked at the cute little ones swimming in the basin. He thought of a very serious medical issue, which was to use these cute little ones to treat wound infections.
In normal times, this approach would probably be equivalent to going crazy, but in the current environment where there is a shortage of medical treatment and medicine, it is an incredible method.
Egger suddenly slapped his head. By the way, he had forgotten that people nowadays are not infected by bacteria.
While trapped in the visitor center, the three Deans had been eating raw meat these days because there was no fire.
Egg saw their "dining table" in another room. The meat was highly decayed. Perhaps their sense of smell had declined, or there was really nothing else to eat, so the three of them were forced to continue eating the carrion raw.
Humans are not scavengers. Eating carrion will cause poisoning.
Because rotten meat contains a large amount of bacteria, the acidity of human gastric juice is not enough to completely kill these bacteria. Instead, they will invade the human body from the digestive tract, causing the person to become infected.
But in the current environment, unknown alien organisms are already parasitic in the human body. With its "guardian", the infected body will never tolerate other microorganisms competing with it for territory.
Bacteria that enter the human body will be killed quickly and efficiently, so even eating raw carrion will only cause psychological discomfort and will not affect people's health.
Thinking of this, Egger's thinking suddenly diverged.
Can the meat of an infected person be eaten after being sterilized at high temperature?
Theoretically it should be possible, as long as you find a pressure cooker, it is impossible for any protein to remain unchanged at such a high temperature.
When proteins are denatured, organisms will inevitably die, even alien organisms.
so……
Stop it!
Egg suddenly woke up, what on earth was he thinking!
This kind of thinking is completely the whisper of the devil. How can people maintain their humanity if they really take this step?
How can people who have lost their humanity not degenerate into beasts?
How can people who have degenerated into scavenging beasts restore human civilization?
This is a taboo and a dead end. Don't even try it, you can't even think about it.
Under the sun, Egg broke out in a layer of cold sweat, and when he came back to his senses, he shuddered involuntarily.
Compared to those evil foods in my brain, these round ones are really cute.
Iger carefully cleaned the insect net with the remaining half bucket of water. Then he placed the insect net and salt water basin in the yard. After turning around, Iger took Avella to plant potatoes.
After Iger left, Joanna walked over nervously. She squatted down and took a look at the salt water basin. The round balls inside gave her goosebumps.
If you don't eat it, you won't eat it even if you die. Even if you blow my head off with a gun, I won't eat it!
Joanna swore secretly.
In the afternoon, Iger and Avella came back covered in mud.
After accompanying Ige to plant potatoes for a day, Avila finally understood what she had produced after working all day yesterday.
When planting potatoes, if you encounter large potatoes, you can indeed cut them into pieces to avoid waste, but when planting, you must keep the skin and buds on, these two are the most important.
Iger picked out all the potatoes with sprouts today and planted them. The remaining potatoes can be stored in a shady place and planted again next spring.
The potatoes planted in front of me can be said to be a test field for everyone to practice, because Iger doesn't have any confidence.
After returning to the church, Egger happily returned to the salt water basin as soon as he got off the car.
As expected, Yuan Gungun had crawled all over the pot. If Egg hadn't covered the pot with a bug net in advance, those little cuties would have escaped.
Egger returned to the kitchen and found a large, clean bowl. He fished out the round balls with his hands, put them into the large bowl, and rinsed them twice with well water.
Afterwards, Egger returned to the kitchen, found a pan, removed the steaming steamer, poured the round balls directly onto the pan, and started to cook.
When Iger was a child, I saw my mother kang silkworm chrysalis, and the truth is the same. This thing does not require oil or salt, it just needs to be kneaded slowly over low heat until it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside.
The round balls couldn't even roll twice comfortably on the pan. As the bottom of the pan became hot, they began to struggle desperately.
Struggle, it's in vain anyway.
Egger happily watched Yuanyuangun struggling in the flat pan. After a while, the Yuanyuanguns stopped moving. Egger began to shake the pan constantly, allowing the Yuanyuanguns to roll around in the pan and heat them evenly.
Joanna in the kitchen saw Egger actually cooking those round balls in the pot, and she felt sick in her heart.
As Egger operated, a magical aroma slowly came out of the pan.
Her nose was telling Joanna that this was the taste of high-quality protein, but Joanna tried her best to use her reason to suppress her uncontrollable appetite.
Until Iger took two wooden sticks and picked up a small piece of browned and crispy meat and handed it to Joanna.
"Here, try it while it's hot, it tastes great." Egger smiled at Joanna, showing his white teeth.
Finally, appetite defeated reason.
Joanna picked up the slightly hot piece of meat between her index finger and thumb, her heart skipped a beat, her eyes closed, she threw it into her mouth, and then bit it hard.
