Chapter 123: The Universe in the Mountains

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Su Ying put away the detector and went up the hill. Soon, she saw wild pheasants and hares dashing out of the mountains.

She didn’t plan to let them get away, so she took the tranquilizer gun and shot the darts out. In the blink of an eye, several hares and pheasants fell.

As Su Ying stopped to pick up the hares, she felt the ground beneath her feet shake with a deep rumbling sound.

When she raised her head to look, she saw a mass of black creatures running out of the forest.

When those things came nearer, she focused her eyes and saw that it was a herd of bisons!

Good Lord! She hit jackpot!

Su Ying climbed up a tree at once and took out her tranquilizer gun. She opened rapid fire at the bisons that were closer to the edge, and soon, a large swathe of bisons fell.

…..

After the rumbling mass of bisons ran past, there was only a complete mess left under the tree.

Su Ying jumped down from the tree and couldn’t resist laughing out loud when she saw the fallen bisons lying all over the ground.

She first entered her interspatial store and set aside an empty space. Then she tossed all the bisons and other prey in there.

Dozens of bisons filled up the space and made it look very full.

However, as far as she knew, these bisons usually lived in the tropical or grassland areas. Why did such a large group suddenly appear here?

After Su Ying stored all her prey properly, she decided to explore the area. She walked into the depths of the forest and reached the top of the mountain after emerging from the deep forest. In order to have a better view, she climbed up a tall tree and took out her binoculars to survey her surroundings.

It would have been better if she hadn’t looked. The moment she looked, she discovered a group of ferocious tigers lurking around on a vast grassland at the foot of the mountain.

Those ferocious tigers were lying lazily on the grassland, looking extremely relaxed. Not far ahead of the grassland, there was actually a structure that looked like a fortress.

Su Ying adjusted the focal length of her binoculars so that she could see the details of that place more clearly.

It was indeed a fortress, and these tigers were raised inside the fortress, with tamers by the side.

To think that there was such a place in the northern wilderness!

Just now, the bisons were startled probably because the tigers were released to the outside, forcing the bisons to run down the mountain.

Su Ying wanted to go over and see what was going on, but it was too far away, and it was getting late. If she went, she might not be able to return the next day, so she could only put it off for now and deal with the bisons first.

Su Ying retraced her steps to go back, but when she reached the foot of the mountain, the sky was already completely dark.

Su Ying racked her brains over her present predicament. How was she going to get dozens of bisons back? Bisons were ferocious by nature, and it was difficult to tame them into domestic cattle. That was why she didn’t think of taming them from the beginning. Forget it. She would deal with two of them first.

Su Ying found a secret place and took out two bisons. They were too big and she couldn’t carry them, so she could only drag them back to her house.

When Li Yong, who had been guarding the area near her house for the past two days, saw Su Ying dragging the two bisons back, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out.

“Ma… Madam Su, this… this is a bison?”

“Yes, hurry up and tell them to open the gate. We’re having a beef banquet tonight.”

Li Yong nodded his head rapidly. “Sure, sure.”

“Uncle Hea, we’ll have an extra dish tonight.”

Su Ying dragged one bison to the kitchen in the backyard.

Hea Shouyi was busy in the kitchen. When he heard Su Ying’s voice, he walked out and got a big shock.

“Mistress, this… this…”

“This is a bison I caught in the mountains. We’ll eat this tonight. How do you want to deal with it?”

Hea Shouyi came back to his senses and quickly asked Bai Shuang to bring a pot to boil water. “Remove the fur from this bison first, then clean it up.”

“Alright. Bai Shuang, boil more water. There’s another one outside.”

“There… there’s still one more…” Hea Shouyi felt as if he had struck the jackpot these two days. Just the day before yesterday, he was worried that they were running out of rice, yet in the blink of an eye, the Mistress had returned with either loads of rice or two whole bisons.

It wasn’t easy to deal with such a big bison. Tian Mu and the others ran over to help after they finished their work.

After they had cleaned up one bison, Su Ying asked Hea Shouyi to cut a quarter of it and send it to Tiger Might’s people.

“Uncle Hea, how should we cook this beef so that it will taste good?”

Ever since the bison had been dragged to the backyard, Su Ying had been helping out all this while, just so she could have a bite of meat earlier.

“Mistress, don’t be anxious. This beef is firm and particularly chewy, but it takes more effort to eat than pork. In a while, I’ll cut off the crunchy and tender parts to stir-fry them. I’ll braise the rest to make stewed beef.”

“Alright.”

“This set of beef bones is also good. I can take it and put it in the pot to make soup. Then, I can use the soup to cook the noodles. The taste will be simply amazing.”

Even Hea Shouyi, who had eaten all kinds of cuisine over the world, was absolutely overjoyed to see the two bisons today.

After the beef was put into the pots, Su Ying happily hummed a little tune as she returned to the hall.

When Xiao Jin saw Su Ying in a happy mood, a trace of a smile appeared on his face. “Where did you encounter the bisons? Rightfully, there shouldn’t be any bison in the mountains.”

Su Ying raised her eyebrows and said somewhat gleefully, “Luck! 1 didn’t just catch two bisons. I caught dozens of them!”

Xiao Jin was stunned. “Dozens?”

“Yes. Because it’s not easy to bring them down the mountain, I brought two of them down first. I’ll ask the men to bring the rest back slowly tomorrow.”

Xiao Jin couldn’t imagine where Su Ying could possibly hide dozens of bisons without those creatures being discovered.

“Those dozens of bisons were all taken down by you alone?”

“Yes. With the help of some drugs, it’s not difficult to knock the bisons out.”

Xiao Jin wanted badly to know what kind of drug was so powerful that it could knock out dozens of bisons in such a short time.

However, Su Ying didn’t intend to reveal too much.

“It’s time to eat.”

Su Ying didn’t know how long she had been waiting, but Hea Shouyi finally announced that dinner was ready.

She jumped up from the chair and rushed out, took the big basin of stir-fried beef from Bai Shuang’s hands, and brought it into the hall.

“Mistress, please slow down. It’s hot.”

Bai Shuang turned around and went back to bring out the other dishes.

After all the dishes were served, Su Ying couldn’t wait to get started.

“Thanks to Mistress, we’re going to have a meat feast tonight.”

Su Ying picked up a piece of beef and put it in her mouth. This was the core part of the beef sinew. Hea Shouyi said that there were only two core parts of beef sinew in the whole bison, and they were the most crunchy and delicious parts.

The moment Su Ying bit into it, her mouth was filled with the fragrant aroma of the beef, and she was extremely pleased.

“Tomorrow morning, 1’11 use the beef soup that I’ve been boiling all night to make beef dough bits soup. Mistress, what do you think?”

Su Ying had no objections. “I’m looking forward to it!”

The two bisons weren’t small. Even though they had a lot of people, they still couldn’t finish them all in one meal. Uncle Hea stewed some of the remaining beef and prepared to marinate and air-dry the rest to make beef jerky.

Outside the courtyard, two figures watched from afar the courtyard that was being guarded. After making sure that there would be no more unusual movements, one of them turned around and left, returning to the Azure Dragon Base.

“Leader, I saw it with my own eyes. That woman was dragging two bisons without breaking into a sweat. This woman is honestly not as simple as she looked, Leader.”

The man sitting on the tiger bench finished the wine in his bowl and put it on the table. “No wonder Tiger Might refused to hand her over no matter what we offered. Then do it. Go get her for me.”

“Yes, Sir..”
