Dongyun recalled for a moment and said, "Yes, the Screaming Mushroom. It has the effects of stimulating appetite, relieving constipation, treating constipation, and invigorating the mood."
Why is it called the Screaming Mushroom?
Kagamihara Nadeshiko was puzzled.
"I don't know, maybe it screams when you touch it, like a screaming chicken."
Dongyun shook his head.
How would he know why the screaming mushroom screams?
Dinner was stewed pork with bamboo shoots and wild vegetables; the pork was from the monitor lizard they had killed during the day.
They would definitely skin and butcher the monitor lizard after killing it, taking as much meat as they could and leaving the rest for other wild animals. He weighed the monitor lizard skin down with stones and soaked it in the river, planning to take it out and dry it after his meal.
Tomorrow, they'll be going back. If they can't find the leopard, he'll have to give up for now and wait until he learns to swim and the bamboo boat is ready before trying his luck with Nadeshiko.
It's amazing how you can't encounter a leopard when you want to, but you do when you don't want to.
"Xiaoyun!"
Suddenly, Kagamihara Nadeshiko cried out in surprise.
Shinonome quickly grabbed his spear and looked at Kagamihara Nadeshiko beside him.
He then heard the sounds of animals running in the bamboo forest and asked, "What did you see?"
“A leopard,” Kagamihara Nadeshiko said with lingering fear. “It was sneaking towards us just now. If I hadn’t glanced over there, it might have reached us right next to us.”
"leopard?"
Dongyun hadn't expected that the creature that had just run away was a leopard.
Did they see them in the jungle and that's why they came to the bamboo forest? Or did they chase other prey into the bamboo forest? It couldn't be that they were catching bamboo partridges, could it? If they could fly, they would be hard for a leopard to catch.
"This is trouble."
Dongyun frowned as he looked at the sky, which was about to darken completely.
He realized something was wrong and immediately said, "Stop cooking, let's make a trap first."
If he and Nadeshiko encountered the leopard during the day, they certainly wouldn't be afraid. After all, their weapons were much better this time, and they were determined to kill the leopard. As long as they faced the leopard head-on, the two of them could kill it with minor injuries or even without taking any damage.
But now it's dark, and although the leopard might not come back after they've spotted it, they can't afford to take any chances.
If the leopard comes again, even with the light of the campfire, it might sneak up close and launch a deadly attack when they're not looking.
Therefore, to avoid such a situation, he and Nadeshiko decided to create a trap at this temporary camp. They would set up an inescapable net so that any leopard that dared to approach would die.
……
"Clap!"
The firewood in the campfire crackled.
At the makeshift camp, Shinonome was setting traps, while Kagamihara Nadeshiko was digging holes in the ground next to the tents and burying sharpened bamboo sticks inside. Their traps wouldn't kill the leopard; they were only meant to bind or injure its legs.
Inside the tent, as soon as they hear the roar of a leopard caught in a trap, they immediately wake up and rush out of the tent to kill the leopard.
To lure the leopard, Shinonome also threw some monitor lizard meat into the trap. When making the trap, he and Nadeshiko smeared mud and congealed blood from raw meat on their hands to eliminate any human scent that might remain from the trap's construction.
"Nadeshiko, come help me."
Dongyun was feeling a bit weak.
His trap required bending bamboo to use its elastic potential energy to ensnare the leopard.
However, breaking bamboo is very strenuous.
"I'm coming!"
Kagamihara Nadeshiko immediately put down what she was doing to help.
To ensure safety, they would set up traps all around the camp. They would mark the traps and leave a path for both entry and exit.
[So many traps, isn't this overly cautious?]
Better safe than sorry.
Isn't this being overly cautious? The traps are everywhere, either pits or snares.
The bamboo is bearing pressure that it shouldn't have to endure at its age.
Holy crap, this is a master trap master!
【leopard:?】
【I'm a leopard, I'm not coming】
[I am a leopard, I committed suicide on the spot]
[Can this trap really catch a leopard?]
[Shinonome: Do you know what a trap master is? A sneak attack on me and I'll send you flying!]
Don't underestimate the flexibility of bamboo!
[Nadeshiko is really energetic, even Master Yun is exhausted.]
[Nadeshiko is like this, a physical monster.]
[It's withered?]
[You're so good with words, be careful Yun-ye bans you!]
As Shinonome and Kagamihara Nadeshiko set up a trap to hunt the leopard, the audience observed a moment of silence for the leopard that might attack at night.
It took several hours.
Shinonome and Kagamihara Nadeshiko had finished setting up the traps, which allowed them to eat, sleep, and even use the toilet in peace.
In the jungle, he and Nadeshiko would go to the toilet back to back, communicating to confirm each other's presence while using their voices to cover up the noise. Everyone says beautiful girls don't know how to do *that*, but actually, they do, and sometimes the noise is quite loud, requiring them to speak loudly to cover up the embarrassing commotion.
There's no way around it; when they're surviving in the wilderness, they inevitably end up turning into spray warriors. It's not like you can just stop spraying whenever you want.
Unless you're an angel.
Everyone has experienced this to some extent, but Xiao Jia doesn't seem to.
Is this what an angel looks like? Their physique is truly enviable.
Dongyun rubbed his stomach, buried his creation with soil, switched the harmony mode back to normal, and "reopened" the live broadcast room.
Is there something wrong with the coconut oil I'm using? It's been sprayed three times today.
Hopefully, he won't try to spray the leopard when it appears, otherwise he might get so angry that he'll kill it.
Don't ask why I got angry; if you do, I'll silence you!
Night fell quickly.
After Shinonome and Kagamihara Nadeshiko returned to their tents to sleep, a large leopard and another, slightly smaller one, came to the bamboo forest and silently walked toward the campfire and tents.
Chapter 127 Hearing a chorus of "Huh?"
An adult female leopard is hunting with her cubs.
This is not only a hunt, but also a revenge.
She smelled a familiar scent on the two large monkeys. She had smelled this scent at the place where her daughter had died.
The mother leopard cautiously approached the tent.
It was well aware of the fighting prowess of this larger monkey.
Young and female monkeys pose little threat; when attacked, they will only panic and call out to their companions. Adult male monkeys, without the unusual claws, are also harmless. However, if an adult male monkey develops claws, and is spotted by three or more others, it will have no choice but to flee.
Two can ambush and kill one, and the other two can't do anything about it. But with three, even if one is ambushed, the other two can still kill it.
If it hadn't lost a territorial battle with other leopards, it wouldn't have sheepishly led its cubs to this place, abandoning the easy-to-hunt large monkeys to hunt more difficult-to-catch sheep, deer, and more dangerous animals like pythons and monitor lizards.
Even the most dangerous monkeys can be easily killed at night when they are asleep or alone.
However, these two monkeys are quite different; their claws are longer, and the female monkey also has claws.
The mother leopard hesitated.
It stared at the tent, then took a step forward.
This step landed right on a trap covered by fallen bamboo leaves, triggering the pressure plate formed by the pile of branches beneath the leaves.
"Snapped!"
Instantly, the leopard's left foreleg was tied and pulled up, and the other leopard was so frightened that it jumped back.
