“Let go of the rope, let it be.”
Hearing Li Yu’s words.
The two sisters who had been gritting their teeth and holding on to the rope finally loosened their grip.
It had to be said, the vitality of this land tank was truly tenacious.
Even though its blood was flowing profusely.
The creature still had the strength to lift its body.
It let out a continuous wail.
But every struggle only aggravated the loss of blood from its body.
It was caught in a vicious cycle.
After several minutes, the giant finally collapsed on the ground, lifeless.
【Congratulations host for killing the species Moose: Biological Score 620 points, Random Attribute Drop: Constitution +4, Agility +2, Endurance +3, Smell +1, Wisdom +2, Random Gold Coin Drop +4960.】
The sudden boom caught Li Yu by surprise.
The attribute points alone amounted to twelve.
The gold coins had also increased by a factor of four due to the biological score exceeding four hundred.
He was just short of earning a gun. He had really struck it rich this time.
After seeing the giant creature remain motionless.
The little girl cautiously approached and touched its massive horns.
She exclaimed in surprise.
“Brother-in-law, we are truly amazing, so much meat, it will last us till next year's second half!”
“Hahaha, this time, you girls really helped a lot.”
In a good mood, Li Yu naturally didn't hesitate to praise them.
“Of course.”
The little girl instantly puffed out her chest with pride.
“Working together, who could be better than us?”
“Hey, I just complimented you, and you're already climbing up the ladder?”
Xiuxiu didn’t pay any attention to the two bickering.
She was also curious and circled the giant creature, a satisfied smile on her face.
However, a question suddenly popped up in her mind.
“Well, I think we shouldn't be celebrating yet, we still need to figure out how to haul all this meat back home!”
These words made both Li Yu and Xiao Min stunned.
Indeed.
Nearly three hours of journey, over a thousand pounds of meat, just thinking about it made them feel tired.
Li Yu looked up at the sky.
He then said.
“We’ll take it slow. Xiuxiu and Xiao Min, go ahead and chop some large branches, first get the sled ready, I’ll break down this guy.”
Before crossing over, he had coincidentally seen a lot of documentaries about hunters in Yukon.
Killing this kind of giant was easy, just a single shot.
But breaking down a huge moose was troublesome, it would take at least a few hours.
Li Yu didn't have that much time, they had to break down the giant and haul it down before dusk.
Otherwise, in the Xing'an Mountains at night.
Hauling so much meat would be a death wish.
Xiuxiu and Xiao Min nodded and picked up their cleavers to chop suitable branches from nearby trees.
With so much meat, the sled's frame had to be sturdy enough to support it.
Therefore, they needed to choose some slightly larger branches.
Meanwhile, Li Yu took out his carving knife and began to cut open the giant creature.
The creature's fur was useful, he could tidy it up and make a warm cushion.
Li Yu couldn’t bear to damage it.
He could only follow the incision at its neck, cutting from top to bottom to make a long opening.
Although the creature's fur was thick, its layer of subcutaneous fat was not substantial. It relied solely on its fur for warmth.
Further inside, most of it was bright red lean meat, an enticing sight.
According to custom.
He first took out the lantern and hung it up. The contents of this creature's intestines, stomach, and everything inside must have weighed over a hundred pounds.
He chopped a short, thicker branch and circled it around the creature.
He prayed devoutly.
“Mountain God, Old Head, please bless us, may my family and dogs enter and exit the mountains with a bountiful harvest and peace.”
After paying respects to the Mountain God, Old Head.
Li Yu cut out the liver and lungs and fed them to the dogs.
Today, he didn't bother with distributing according to their merits, after all, there was so much food, enough to make them full to bursting.
He cut a large chunk of meat for each dog and didn’t care about them anymore.
The dogs immediately lay down and devoured the meat voraciously.
Especially Da Hu, he hadn't tasted fresh meat in years.
He gulped down two bites of meat, leaving Li Yu speechless.
With the internal organs dealt with, Li Yu began to prepare for skinning and butchering.
This was a meticulous job, but fortunately, he was strong and could manage the dead giant alone.
His speed was far faster than those hunters in the modern world.
Even so, it still took him about half an hour.
By this time, Xiuxiu and Xiao Min had already tied up the sled.
Seeing Li Yu covered in sweat, they picked up a pair of firewood and lit a fire beside the moose carcass.
With the help of the two sisters, Li Yu felt relieved.
They were pressed for time, so he didn’t bother with finer details.
For example, he directly cut off the creature's thighs at the joint.
Then the two sisters helped carry them onto the sled and placed them inside.
The most troublesome were the creature’s ribs and spine, they were so thick.
Li Yu's carving knife couldn't even cut through them. In the end, he had to locate the joint, make a cut, and break them apart with force.
It’s unclear how long they worked, but when Li Yu finally carried the giant creature’s pair of large antlers onto the sled.
The butchering work was finally completed.
Li Yu was truly exhausted.
Even Xiuxiu and Xiao Min, the two girls who were helping to carry the meat, were sweating profusely.
After finishing everything.
The three of them gathered around the fire and roasted their sweat-soaked clothes.
They couldn't wear these clothes while walking. In this kind of weather, they would soon freeze into ice shards, offering no warmth at all. Not to mention, it would freeze them solid.
“Whew… I never dreamed that one day I would be so tired from carrying meat.”
Sitting by the fire, Xiuxiu roasted her oily little hands and couldn’t help but sigh.
“Heehee.”
The little girl beside her smiled and chimed in.
“Sister, this shows that our sisters' eyes were good, we picked a capable brother-in-law. We have endless fish and meat, our family’s good days are ahead, you need to get used to this feeling.”
Xiuxiu instantly blushed and spat at her.
“What do you mean our sisters’ eyes were good, it was clearly my eyes that were good. And you’ll be getting married in the future, you’ll be someone else's then.”
“I don't want to get married!”
Hearing this, the little girl pouted.
She mumbled.
“Brother-in-law is so capable, supporting us sisters is no problem at all, I don't want to be separated from you, sister, I just want to stay with you and brother-in-law forever.”
“You’re asking for a beating!”
Xiuxiu feigned a swing with her hand, which was still covered in oil.
“There's no girl who grows up without getting married, I’ll have your brother-in-law ask Aunt Shen for help, we’ll find a good family for you in the village, someone who can take care of you. It’s great!”
