Chapter 54

Chapter 54

Zhang Liu didn't know exactly how much the sheep weighed.

After all, there are no weighing instruments at the moment.

But he was sure there was plenty of meat to eat.

There were four legs of meat: the meat from the lamb's chest, the belly meat that Anya had pointed out to save for use in lamb skewers later, a whole spine with meat on it, and other parts of the meat that could be felt very tender when he pulled them out with a knife.

Some disadvantages are that there is not a lot of fat on the lamb's body, and from Anya's understanding of eating steak professionally, this means that it will not sizzle and become oily when grilled.

Qin Rushuang couldn't bear to see the muscle and fat being pulled out with a knife, so she took the initiative to look for wood not far away.

Anya and Zhang Liu began to discuss how to eat meat with great interest.

"Surely there will be no problem with smoked meat!"

"There is a lot of fat," Anya, whose family owns a cattle farm, said firmly, referring to the butt meat that Zhang Liu pulled along the leg of the lamb, so it is not easy to damage!

"Oh!" Zhang Liu carefully placed the butt meat on a large piece of leaf, nodded, and said, "Then I will cut it into strips later so I can take some with me tomorrow."

Then he pointed at the stomach and asked, "Are you going to deal with this yourself later? You really don't need my help?"

"absolutely!" Anya nodded, then turned her eyes to Zhang Liu and complained, "You think you are superhuman; you can handle lamb legs and grill skewers."

"Ahem… I'm afraid you'll be tired." Zhang Liu said sincerely, "After all, I'm a boy, so I have to work more."

He said this very sincerely.

Because compared to her, who was a little out of breath after dealing with the sheep's body, Anya was obviously sweating profusely, and the red sportswear on her body was completely wet.

"Tch, you should worry more about Qin Rushuang!" When Anya heard that the other party cared about her, she felt kind. At the same time, she also realized that there was something wrong with the sour words she had just spoken, so she quickly added, "Be careful; she's a woman after all. Boy, don't keep staring at other people's breasts!"

"Haa?"

Zhang Liu, who was inexplicably blamed, had a confused face, but he did not stop what he was doing.

Place the lamb's legs, backbone, and ribs on the racks in sequence, then shake them twice to make sure the rack does not collapse.

Later, a small fire was lit at the bottom, and once it was burning brightly, moist branches soaked with seawater were placed on top. With a whooshing sound, thick smoke billowed out, and began to smoke the meat.

"Cough, cough, cough..." The smoke spread quickly. Zhang Liu, who was standing beside the fire, choked and coughed several times. Anya was also moved not far away, grabbing two pieces of meat as long as her arms and running back.

At the same time, the smoke also succeeded in repelling many flies that were attracted to the smell of blood near the cave.

The previously annoying buzzing sound disappeared in an instant.

"I'll deal with that stone pit in the back. I'll leave this side to you." Zhang Liu took a sip of water, alleviating the smoky sensation in his throat. Then he turned to Anya, who was sharpening the long, thin sticks with a piece of metal, and advised her, "Later, try to convince Shen Rushuang to get out. She can take her time adjusting to the bloody scenes; there is no need to force herself."

"I won't tell her anything." The movement of cutting firewood suddenly stopped. Anya raised her head, frowned at her small mouth, and said dissatisfiedly, "If you want to say it, you can say it yourself!"

"No, I am a boy. If I show too much interest in her in this private environment, I will be suspected of taking advantage of her." Zhang Liu looked at Anya sincerely and said, "So please, Anya. Okay?"

"Well, aren't you worried about me? Aren't you afraid to take advantage of the situation?" With a subtle roll of her eyes, Anya found Zhang Liu's self-justifying words very amusing. "Last time, you even said I could be lazy..." she added, blushing.

"Ah... aren't you bullying me?" Zhang Liu's eyes immediately widened.

In the previous "foot sprain" incident, wasn't Anya planning to bully him?

Looking at Anya, his expression began to become complicated, and he also began to remember the strange words that Anya had shouted before.

"I'm ready to hug your waist..."

"Be responsible for me..."

After being silent for a while, Zhang Liu said hesitantly, "Colleague Anya, are you doing this to me because of the effect of the suspension bridge? Aaaah!"

He screamed and dodged the sharp wooden stick that Anya pointed at his chest.

Zhang Liu grabbed an ember of fire and ran away.

"If you have the courage, come back!" Anya shouted angrily as she stood and watched Zhang Liu's figure hurriedly running away.

Then she covered her face and sat there without speaking.

The feeling of shame kept coming to her mind.

Does Zhang Liu actually know what she's thinking?

Suddenly an idea came to Anya's mind, while at the same time she started cursing the other person for being wooden in her heart.

Do you finally understand now?

"What happened?" After hearing the violent sound, Qin Rushuang ran over, holding a pile of wood, and then saw a red-faced Anya immediately sitting down and covering her face. There was a hint of surprise in her voice.

"It's okay; Zhang Liu just upset me!" She casually said words that Qin Rushuang could not easily ignore. Anya pointed to the cave and said, "Qin Rushuang, you can go out first after you finish collecting the firewood. To overcome the fear in your heart, there is no need to force yourself now."

"But..." Qin Rushuang looked at the mutton that Zhang Liu and Anya had "cut" not far away; her face suddenly turned pale, and her steps became bad.

"My colleague Qin Rushuang, you don't want your colleague Zhang Liu to see you vomit, do you?" Anya crossed her arms and said, "In this case, the image of the beauty of the iceberg will disappear."

"Where did this iceberg girl's name come from?" Qin Rushuang couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard the nicknames the other students in this school called her.

"Isn't that what everyone calls you? Your sister is called Volcano Explosion Girl" In the pile of firewood in Qin Rushuang's arms, she found several wooden sticks suitable for mutton skewers. Anya spoke while peeling the bark off the tree. "By the way, what is her name again?"

"Qin Ruyan, whose name was originally Yanhao (Fireworks), later changed her name at my mother's request"

After a short conversation with Anya, Qin Rushuang, aroused by her concerns, sighed slightly, then stood up and continued to collect firewood outside.

Feeling that the other party did not have much desire to talk, Anya stopped asking questions and continued to work hard.

You'll eat lamb kebabs for lunch and grilled lamb legs for dinner to replenish your protein!

Thinking of the hot and greasy meat, she couldn't help but run to the shell where it was still cooking, fish out a piece of it, and put it in her mouth.

This is not theft, but the most primitive way to judge whether meat is cooked.

To Anya's disappointment, after it entered her mouth and she chewed repeatedly, it still had a hard consistency, which was completely different from the soup she had imagined.

As she tried to straighten her neck and swallow the unchewed entrails whole, she took a deep breath and continued grinding on the wooden skewer.

It's best to eat the lamb skewers first!

Anya thought somewhat painfully as she felt the foul taste of sheep's internal organs slowly slide down her esophagus into her stomach.
