Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

Chapter 378: Entering the Mountains after the Disaster 2

As they were talking, they arrived home. As soon as Lu Chuan entered the door, he shouted, "Mu'er, come out quickly and see what Daddy has hunted."

Mu'er heard her father's voice and quickly ran out of the house. Seeing this, Xu Han came into the house to hug Ze'er.

Xu Han would never feel at ease if she left Ze'er alone in the house, especially now that Ze'er could crawl, and he crawled very fast. If she didn't go in, he might crawl out by himself in a while.

Sure enough, when Xu Han entered the house, Ze'er was just about to crawl!

When Mu'er saw what was in the yard, she looked at Lu Chuan in surprise and said with admiration, "Wow, it's a big tiger, Daddy is so awesome!"

"Mu'er, it's not just your father who beat him, it's also the Taoist priest who beat him."

The Taoist priest held Mu'er in his arms and said with a proud look on his face.

"Grandpa Taoist is also very powerful, you are all great heroes."

Suddenly the yard was filled with everyone's laughter.

Mu'er, who had never seen a real tiger, walked around the dead tiger with a curious look on her face.

Not only Mu'er was not afraid of the tiger, even Ze'er in Xu Han's arms was constantly reaching out to the tiger.

Seeing this, Lu Chuan hurriedly took Ze'er, who had been moving around, from Xu Han's arms.

Ze'er became even more confident when he saw that it was his father holding him. Lu Chuan had no choice but to put him on the ground and help him stand up.

The Taoist priest laughed and said, "Hahaha, I said they wouldn't be scared. Look at Ze'er, he doesn't look scared at all."

"No, Ze'er is too fierce. What if he sees a real tiger and is still so fearless?"

Xu Han also shook his head, looking worried.

"They are still young now, so it's normal for them to be afraid. Besides, this tiger is dead and not dangerous, so they are not afraid."

Hearing this, Xu Han patiently explained to Mu'er, "Mu'er, this tiger is dead, so it won't hurt you. But if you encounter a living tiger, you must not get so close to it. Hide quickly without being discovered by it, otherwise it will eat you, understand?"

Mu'er nodded seriously and said to Xu Han, "Mom, my great grandfather told me about tigers. They are very ferocious beasts."

"Yes, not only tigers, but also wolves, black bears, and other animals in the mountains. You can't get so close to them. Wait until you grow up and can defeat them before hunting, but not now, you are too young."

Mu'er smiled and said crisply, "I know, mother."

Xu Han finally felt relieved after hearing this. As for Ze'er...

Forget it, he is still too young. Even if you talk to him now, he won’t understand. He can’t even speak, so how can you expect him to understand anything?

Xu Han stayed with Mu'er and Ze'er in the yard for a while, while Lu Chuan and the others took this time to have lunch.

There was no rush to deal with the tiger. The temperature was quite hot at noon, so Xu Han put the tiger into the space first and would deal with it after it woke up from its nap.

As for the pheasants and other animals that were hunted, as long as they were not dead yet, Xu Han put them all in the backyard and locked them up.

Xu Han was awakened by Lu Chuan while she was sleeping. "Wife, wake up. It's getting late. Take the tiger out first. We will deal with it."

Xu Han sat up in a daze, and after a while she followed Lu Chuan to the backyard.

The Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao were already waiting there. Seeing this, Xu Han quickly took the tiger out of the space.

Grandpa Zhao pointed at the tiger and said, "Leave these tiger penises and tiger bones for me to prepare later. These are all excellent medicinal materials."

The Taoist priest joked, "Look how anxious you are. Don't worry, no one will snatch it from you."

Xu Han asked, "Should we still take this tiger to the county town to sell it? After keeping all the medicinal materials, the only things left are the tiger skin and tiger meat. Why don't we put them in the space first? We don't even need to go to the county town for these."

There is nothing missing at home. Xu Han is now used to staying in the mountains and really doesn't want to go to the county town. The key is that there is no urgent need to make money now.

Lu Chuan thought for a while and said, "Let's keep the tiger skin. We already have two at home, so we won't sell this one.

As for tiger meat, it doesn’t taste good. It can be sold for some money, but it’s not worth the trip. The dogs at home haven’t had a good meal of meat for a long time. I’ll cook it all for them later.”

After hearing what Lu Chuan said, Xu Han agreed. As for the Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao, they certainly had no objections.

"There's so much tiger meat that even a few dogs can't finish it. Let's cook a quarter of it first. I guess they can't finish it in one meal."

After all, this tiger is really big, and even after removing the skin and internal organs, there is still a lot left.

The Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao were responsible for dealing with the tiger, while Lu Chuan and Xu Han dealt with the surviving pheasants and rabbits.

It’s true, Xu Han hadn’t handled prey for a long time, so he was a little unfamiliar with it for a while.

Thinking back to when stockpiling goods before the disaster, Xu Han processed the pheasants very quickly, mainly because there were several every day. As time went by and she processed more, her speed naturally increased.

But Xu Han hadn't dealt with these things for three or four years, and for a moment she didn't know where to start. Fortunately, she got back to her previous feeling after adapting for a while.

As for the silly roe deer, Lu Chuan dealt with it and asked Xu Han to put it in the space, waiting to sell it together when they went to the county town next time.

The four of them had been busy in the backyard for the entire afternoon and had finally processed all the prey they had brought back.

In the evening, Xu Han generously cooked two pheasants for everyone.

One pheasant was used to make pheasant stewed with mushrooms, and the other was made by Xu Han into the spicy fried chicken that everyone loves.

Cut the pheasant into small pieces, put them directly into the pan after the oil is hot and stir-fry until golden brown, then add shredded ginger, garlic cloves and chili and stir-fry together.

Finally, add appropriate amount of seasoning, and stir-fry the green pepper until cooked before serving.

This stir-fried chicken with peppers goes really well with rice. It’s salty, spicy and fresh, and everyone loves it.

"Today's meal is too rich. I am full."

Lu Chuan said as he walked in the yard, holding his belly.

The Taoist priest was lying on a rocking chair, swaying as he continued, "Chicken is still the best. I've been eating too much other meats lately, and chicken suddenly tastes so good."

"That's because you haven't eaten it for a long time, so it tastes good."

Xu Han thought for a moment and said, "We had quite a bit of pheasants in stock at the time, and we ate so much chicken that we ate it so quickly."
