Chapter 19 - Chapter 19 Alone in the Cave

Lu

  Shiyan did not insist anymore, but he warned: "Then be careful."

  "Don't worry, there should be no wolves down here, and everything will be fine." Jiang Tangtang still felt a little palpitated thinking about the wolves that attacked them today.

  But thinking that she had space, it was more convenient when she was alone. If she encountered danger, she could just hide in the space, and she became bolder again.

  The cave was not far from where they fell off the cliff. Jiang Tangtang searched all the way and found the wolf king killed by Lu Shiyan not long after.

  Jiang Tangtang was a little scared when he saw the bloody Wolf King with his eyes wide open. But

  the original owner had not eaten much meat since she was exiled, and her body was already lacking oil and water. In order to lose weight after time traveling, she deliberately controlled her diet.

  But soon, the desire to eat meat took over. Jiang Tangtang dragged the wolf out of the grass.

  The average wolf can only grow 40 to 50 kilograms, but this wolf is particularly huge, weighing at least 60 to 70 kilograms.

  After only dragging for a while, Jiang Tangtang was so tired that he was out of breath.

  Looking at the dark river not far away, and then thinking about the warm spring-like environment in the space, he hesitated a little, and then quietly entered the space with the wolf.

  Although Jiang Tangtang had never taken care of wolves before, he had seen people killing pigs and rabbits in the countryside.

  She picked a sharp knife and got to work.

  First peel off the wolf skin. Then open the intestines, remove the internal organs, then remove the wolf steak and marinate it with onions, ginger, garlic, cumin and other spices.

  After marinating, Jiang Tangtang remembered that she was going to take it to the cave and eat it with Lu Shiyan.

  Looking at the marinated lamb chops, Jiang Tangtang hesitated for a moment, then quickly removed all the parts of the wolf meat, making room to throw the wolf's internal organs to the river. The wolf meat was tied up with palm leaves and carried back to the cave. .

  When Jiang Tangtang returned to the cave with the wolf meat, he found that Lu Shiyan had fallen asleep again at some point, and he was inexplicably relieved.

  She gently added a few dry firewood to the fire, then pulled out the charcoal grill, built a simple shelf with stones, took out the wolf steak that had been marinated earlier, and slowly grilled it on the charcoal fire.

  Soon, the fragrant aroma of barbecue wafted out of the cave.

  The wolf meat marinated in spices and grilled over charcoal fire is really delicious.

  Even Lu Shiyan, who had never paid much attention to food and drink, was aroused by the tantalizing aroma.

  Seeing that he was awake, Jiang Tangtang took a piece of wolf steak and handed it to him and said, "You're hungry! Eat some quickly."

  Lu Shiyan saw that there was still a lot of food on the charcoal fire, so he didn't show politeness to her, so he took the wolf steak and started eating.

  The wolf steak marinated in spices has no smell at all and tastes crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

  Although Lu Shiyan had eaten Jiang Tangtang's cooking for several days and knew that she was a very good cook, he was still slightly surprised by the taste.

  Looking at his wife sitting across from him, eating wolf steak gracefully, Lu Shiyan was filled with doubts again.

  It seems that she has changed since the heavy rain that day.

  Not only was her food no longer as voracious as before, her temperament seemed to have changed, but also her cooking skills and strange knowledge. Although Jiang Tangtang had a reasonable explanation for every point, he felt more and more in his heart weird.

  But at this time, Lu Shiyan didn't have time to think too much. After the two of them had finished eating all the grilled wolf steaks, he stood up and said, "You rest by the fire for a while, and I'll go out and find a way up."

  "Ah?" Jiang Tangtang said unexpectedly: "I won't wait until dawn tomorrow morning. Say it again?"    

  "We'd better get back to the team as soon as possible."

  "Then...are you okay?" Jiang Tangtang said a little worried, "How about I go with you! If you find the way, you don't have to come back to me. Yes, we can just go up."

  Lu Shiyan shook his head and said, "I feel much better after taking a nap. You don't need to follow me, I'm just going to check out the terrain and wait until dawn tomorrow morning."

  He said so, and Jiang Tangtang didn't either. Hold on. Fortunately, she hasn't dug out the rough crystal stones in the cave yet, so she can continue after he leaves.

  She nodded and said, "Then go ahead. I'll smoke the wolf meat and take it with you to eat on the road tomorrow." After

  Lu Shiyan left, Jiang Tangtang only took a few pieces of wolf meat to make a show on the fire, while the other wolf meat was Cut them all into strips, marinate them with spices, and bake them in the oven.

  The oven in the farmhouse is a large built-in oven with a large capacity. One box can bake almost half of the wolf meat. The remaining small part that couldn't fit was put into the air fryer by Jiang Tangtang.

  After leaving the barbecue to the oven and air fryer, Jiang Tangtang took out his tools again and started working in the cave.

  After she dug all the crystal stones that were easily mined in the cave into the space and roasted the fragrant wolf meat jerky, Lu Shiyan dragged his exhausted body back.

  Jiang Tangtang asked him sleepily: "How is it? Have you found the road?"

  Lu Shiyan nodded, "Found it, we can just follow that road tomorrow morning."

  Jiang Tangtang pointed to the dried meat hanging in the cloth bag beside the fire. : "Are you hungry? Do you want some jerky?"

  Lu Shiyan looked at the jerky in the bag and was very surprised that she had baked the jerky so quickly.

  He opened the bag and took a look, and saw that the dried meat was very small and not very dry after roasting.

  I just thought it was because it was cut into smaller pieces and baked faster, so I didn't think much about it.

  He shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not going to eat anymore. Go to sleep!"

  Jiang Tangtang ignored him and leaned against the fire, burying his head in his knees again and fell asleep.

  She had sneaked into the space just now, took out the prison clothes from the dry cleaning machine, changed them, and then threw the wet prison clothes into the washing machine.

  Although it was uncomfortable to sleep like this, it was not that uncomfortable because the clothes were dry. In addition, after walking all day during the day and experiencing such a thrilling experience as falling off a cliff at night, she was really exhausted and fell asleep quickly.

  On the other side, the exiled team finally reached the inn and settled down.

  The officials simply tidied up and distributed dry food to everyone as usual, but the people in the Lu family's main room couldn't eat it.

  Mrs. Su knelt on the ground and begged, "Sir, my son and his wife fell to the bottom of the cliff. Can you be merciful and let us go down to find them?"

  Liang Jiamin thought about Jiang Tangtang's good cooking skills and Lu Shiyan's actions when killing the wolf. Brave, a feeling of regret arose in his heart, but he did not reprimand her, but said: "I don't know how high the cliff is. It's dark and raining outside. How can you, a woman, find it?"

  " I can go find my brother!" Lu Shili knelt down next to Su and said, "Sir, please, let us go find my brother!"

  "And me!" Lu Zhixi also knelt down and begged.
