A special forces soldier traveled through time and space to become a genius of literature and martia
Chapter 3 Spicy Fish Stew
The green hillside is covered with thick shade from the big trees, and their lush branches and leaves reach high into the sky.
The light in the forest was getting dimmer and dimmer, and the cold was getting heavier. The silence of the forest made people feel a chill on their backs. Yuan Ying climbed up a sturdy tree.
Looking through the gaps between the sparse branches and leaves, she saw endless green. She looked to the other side and saw the same endless green, plus rolling hills.
This primeval forest was even larger than he had imagined, with endless layers of green. Yuan Ying quickly climbed down the tree, his heavy military boots making rustling sounds as he stepped on the thick layer of dead leaves and broken branches.
Yuan Ying was thinking about his next move in his mind. There were tigers, black bears, leopards, jackals, poisonous snakes, wild boars in this primeval forest... any one of them would be enough to give him a hard time.
My leg is injured now, so I have to rest in the cave for a few days and make plans after my injury gets better.
After exploring the surrounding situation, Yuan Ying ran out of the woods and found that there was a wide river not far from the cave. After passing a patch of weeds, he heard the sound of flowing water.
The river is vast, with dense grass on both sides. Traces of trampling can be vaguely seen, proving that many animals come here to drink water.
A look of joy appeared on Yuan Ying's face. He had learned the law of the jungle in the military academy. If you get lost in the deep mountains and forests, you just need to find a river and then follow the direction of the water flow. Sooner or later you will find human traces. No matter what period, humans have the habit of living near water.
Yuan Ying scooped up some river water to wash his face and found fish swimming in the water. Yuan Ying pulled out the dagger on his military boots and quickly forked a crucian carp, threw it into the grass, and then forked another grass carp.
I quickly cut open the fish and cleaned it in one go by the river. From now on, I must not touch the dry food in the backpack unless it is necessary. I picked up some wet dead branches and returned to the cave.
I found a few relatively flat stones outside the cave and built a simple stove. It was called a stove, but it was actually just a fire made of stones.
He took out the camping pot and filled it with water from the kettle. The pot was a single-mouth pot and could only cook one fish at a time. Yuan Ying cut the branches with a dagger and threw them into the pot. The branches were too wet to ignite, so Yuan Ying carefully poured a little iodine on the branches and the fire started.
Yuan Ying quickly added branches to the stove and took off his outer combat uniform to dry by the fire. It was really uncomfortable to be covered in sticky clothes.
Half an hour later the fish in the pot was cooked. Yuan Ying took out some salt from his bag, sprinkled it into the pot and started eating. Yuan Ying could not cook. Before joining the army, he ate whatever his mother arranged for him to eat. After joining the army, he ate whatever the army arranged for him to eat.
During field training, they have eaten rats, snake meat, grass roots, wild vegetables, and drank ditch water. The main goal is to keep them in a rough and easy-to-feed environment, and the requirement for food is that it must be cooked.
Now she had finished the pot of boiled fish in no time, not even any soup was left. After eating and drinking, Yuan Ying looked outside the cave.
While it was still early, I went to pick up a few bundles of dry branches. I had to keep the fire burning at night to keep it warm and prevent wild animals from entering the cave.
Yuan Ying went around the area again, preparing to pick some wild vegetables for dinner, thinking: "Luckily, I have lived in the army for so many years, and I know a lot of wild vegetables."
Along the way, I found some dandelions, purslane, bittercress, etc.
It is the beginning of summer now, the ground is covered with flowers, and the fragrance of grass and trees is intoxicating. It is worthy of being a primeval forest.
Yuan Ying gave a bitter smile and continued walking into the forest. The air here was damp and dark, silent and a breeze blew by, bringing a hint of coolness. The leaves were rustling in the wind, and there was an extremely eerie feeling that made people's hair stand on end.
Suddenly, a faint "hissing" sound came from my ear. The sound was very light. Less than seven or eight meters away from me, a dark brown mountain wind with the thickness of an arm raised its head towards me, with a pair of vertical pupils scanning back and forth. It spit out its tongue and issued a warning.
Suddenly, the venomous snake suddenly raised its body and attacked her. Yuan Ying immediately jumped into the air. She was quick-eyed and quick-handed.
He grabbed the snake's tail and whipped it hard against the stone next to him. In a moment, blood spurted from the corners of the snake's mouth and the whole snake hung down motionlessly.
Yuan Ying pulled out a dagger and chopped off the snake's head. Then he dug a hole in the ground with the dagger and buried it.
Yuan Ying strode out of the woods with the poisonous snake in his hand and came to the river. He skinned and gutted the snake in one go. It was obvious from his skill that he had done this many times. He had indeed participated in many field exercises or special training. Snakes and voles are good for physical replenishment, and his comrades were scrambling to eat them.
She picked a wild taro leaf by the river, cut the cleaned snake into pieces, and then washed the wild vegetables. Tonight's dinner is spicy fish stew, and more protein will help the wound heal.
After returning to the cave, Yuan Ying took the pot to the river to fetch water, put it on the stove, threw in half a fish and half a snake, and added a handful of firewood to the stove.
I took out the first aid kit to change the dressing on my leg wound. Maybe I was a bit exhausted today. The wound was red and swollen, which was a bit scary. It seemed that I had to rest well in the cave in the next few days except for eating. After changing the dressing, I took an anti-inflammatory pill.
I was sitting at the entrance of the cave, bored, watching the birds flying outside. I didn't know what my mother was doing now, or whether she knew about my disappearance. Suddenly, I missed my mother very much and wanted to eat the braised pork ribs she made.
If only she could fly like a bird. Then she could fly out of here quickly. A self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She was getting more and more childish as she grew older.
After my father's death, I grew up overnight. The lively and cheerful girl I used to be no longer exists. I am only 23 years old, but my heart is more mature than that of a 63-year-old.
In the army, she abides by the rules and is strict with herself. She is even more strict and abnormal in training her teammates. Her teammates call her Nun Miejue behind her back.
Thinking of how Lin Jie said he loved her before he died, Yuan Ying now finds it a little unbelievable.
She took out a mirror from her bag and looked at her face. Due to long-term training, her wheat-colored face had a few freckles. Her short hair made her look more manly than any other man. Tsk tsk... Lin Jie had a unique taste.
Thinking of Lin Jie sacrificing Yuan Ying to protect him from the bullet, he felt guilty and sad. He must take good care of Lin Jie's parents when he returns.
Soldiers are the most passionate and also the most cruel. Military orders are as heavy as mountains. No matter what the reason, you must complete the tasks assigned to you by your superiors as long as you are alive.
When teammates die, the living still have to move on. For soldiers, sadness is temporary. What they should do is to complete the unfinished wishes of their deceased teammates, continue the unfinished tasks, and take care of their families.
The gurgling sound in the pot brought Yuan Ying back to her thoughts. Wiping away tears, she broke off the wild vegetables from the wild taro leaves and put them into the pot. After blanching them and sprinkling some salt on them, she placed the pot on the stone slab and started eating. Soldiers devoured their meals, and Yuan Ying was no exception.
After eating, I washed the pot in the river and found a place to eat. After washing, I fetched a pot of water and boiled it in the cave, then poured it into the military kettle.
I went to the river to get a pot of water and put the remaining fish and snake meat in the pot to cook for tomorrow morning. In summer, the temperature is high and I am afraid that the smell of raw meat will attract wild animals. I will keep it on the fire and warm until tomorrow morning so that it will not go bad.
After finishing all this, it was completely dark. Yuan Ying did more than 200 squats on one leg in the cave and a series of single-leg jumping exercises, then opened his sleeping bag and lay down.
The dark jungle was exceptionally quiet. The wind swayed the tall treetops, making a huge, slow rustling sound. It was like a desert-like sea of trees moving overhead, setting off the quiet night.
Yuan Ying closed his eyes gently and murmured: Good night, Mom!
