NOVEL NEXT Page 86
From the hanging bamboo basket, I took out the bamboo strips I brought in the morning, put them on the trap, measured them, and cut off the parts that were too long.
Bamboo strips of appropriate length were laid out evenly, and the thin bamboo strips shook slightly when pressed lightly by hand.
"Yes, the idea of using bamboo sticks to set up this trap is correct."
"The load-bearing material on top is the most important part of the trap."
"The material used is too strong, and the prey may have walked over it without collapsing."
"Later, we need to cover it with branches and vegetation. If the material is not able to bear the pressure, it may collapse before the prey itself."
"These bamboo strips are the thickened version I specially left, and the inner side has hardly been cut."
As he said that, Muqing cut some twigs from the side and spread them on the bamboo frame. After spreading them evenly, he shoveled back the vegetation that had been shoveled aside.
Part of it is placed where the bamboo frame is strong, and is used to reinforce the frame.
The other part is randomly spread on the trap, making a natural cover for the trap.
After finishing everything, Mu Qing stood and watched.
Still feel unsatisfied.
He went to the side and picked up a large pile of fallen leaves, and waved his hand to let them fall evenly.
"Well! Suitable, satisfied, that's it."
Picking up his clothes and wiping the dirt and sweat off his face, Mu Qing was very optimistic about the fruits of his labor.
Mobilize the live ball to switch to rest assured, grinning at the camera and posing a v.
"Hey, when I go back, I can watch the replay screenshots by myself."
"When I was wiping my sweat just now, I found out that I actually have abdominal muscles. It's just a rudimentary shape. I can feel it with my hands, but I still can't see it."
"Maybe when I go back, I will have very obvious eight-pack abs."
While chattering, Mu Qing patted the soil inside the bamboo basket clean, and glanced at the time on the live ball.
"Time flies so fast today, it's five o'clock?"
"I still have to go to the front to make a mouse trap, I have to speed up."
Muqing picked up his backpack and accelerated to the previous direction.
"I found that I have a very good habit. As long as I am walking in the woods, I will use a machete to clear the road a little bit."
"It will be a waste of time the first time, but it will be much faster if you walk later."
"And the traces of the machete can be used as a mark, letting me know the approximate route I walked last time."
"I remember the last time I walked here, it took me more than three hours, but this time it took me less than two hours."
It's almost seven o'clock.
The sky has visibly dimmed.
It didn't get dark early in the area where Muqing was located, and normally the sky would not be obviously dark until around 07:30.
But it only takes half an hour from the dim light of the sun to the darkness of the sky.
Chapter 57
"Whether it's treading water across a river or walking alone in the jungle in total darkness, it's very dangerous."
"Half an hour at most, I have to go down the mountain and go back to camp
"I don't have time to find materials to make traps like bamboo forests today. The big rocks from last time are still there. Let me make a simple mouse trap."
As Mu Qing said, he swiftly cut down branches to use as materials, and quickly set up the two abandoned stone slab traps.
After setting up one, Mu Qing found the position of another stone slab buckle.
After setting up both traps, I checked the sky and the time on the live ball.
"It may be that the rainy season is approaching, and it gets dark earlier today than before. It's only 07:30 and it's almost eight o'clock when I first came here."
"I've been wandering around the camp recently. I didn't realize this."
"I have to hurry up."
Mu Qing put on his backpack and was about to walk up the hill when the sound of animals running came from the woods.
The last oolong incident did not make Mu Qing careless, he took the torch and quickly climbed up a nearby tree.
【Um?This scene looked so familiar. 】
[It's just two mice if you're stuck to death, what about you, hahaha. 】
[Brother Mu is a real dog, and he is ashamed to say that wild animals are cowardly. 】
[It's all right now, just take away the mouse that hit the trap. 】
【Brother Mu hugs the tree with a dignified expression, it's so funny. 】
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
There were several sharp screams from the woods.
【Oh my god, what the hell is this? 】
[I don’t know, I’ve never heard of it, is it vegetarian or meat? 】
[Ah!!! So scary!Brother Mu, run! 】
[This game will only end after running, let's observe the situation first. 】
The melon-eaters who were still laughing at Mu Qing just now were suddenly more timid than him, screaming fear through the screen.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" A few more calls came.
Although it was around half the moon, the clouds today were so thick that the moonlight was almost blocked.
Mu Qing could only hear the sound of animals running, but couldn't really see it.
And it sounds like there should be more than one.
Mu Qing climbed up a little more, sat down on a thick branch, took out a fire bag from his backpack, stuffed it into the torch, and blew on it a few times.
