Chapter 42: Game Over, The Police is coming
Raising the tiger cubs were definitely not a good deal. He enquired the audience in the live broadcast room and got different kinds of answers. Definitely he would not get what he wanted.
Some audience suggested him to raise the tiger cubs like raising a kitten.
Chen B-Dog felt the suggestion made sense.
So there was another question: How does one raise a newborn kitten without the cat mother?
If you were wealthy, you could buy the kitten milk powder from the pet shop. Fed the kitten every four hours, used warm clothes or wet wipes to massage its buttock and helped it to defecate. It would be better to keep it warm by taking a hot water bag and wrapping it with the towels. The kittens would feel warmer in their nest. Anyway, there was no other choice but to use the method of raising kittens to take care these two little ones.
The man who killed the wolf without hesitation, B-Dog, seemed at a loss at this moment. He scratched his head and said, “Honestly, I never had a pet before. What I know is only limited to theoretical knowledge. If there is any animal feeding expert, please have a private chat with me. I am waiting online. It is super urgent! Others please do not send messages to me at this time otherwise I will put you on the blacklist and ban you for commenting!”
Soon, he made a summary from those useful suggestions. Chen B-Dog said, “Thanks to the suggestion of our friend ‘Wild Pig Raiser Zhao Xin’ who claimed himself as the professional animal keeper. Much appreciated. I would make you a room administrator. You have suggested me to cook a bowl of minced broth for the cubs. I can do this. Let’s try it. And to those who send me the empty messages of ‘Lord B-Dog I want to have a baby with you’, I am sorry, I am going to blacklist you. And I will ban you from commenting for 1 hour. It will be a deterrent to others!”
No time better than the present. He boiled some snow and chopped the fresh wolf meat into minced meat before starting to cook the soup.
This was easy to him.
He brandished the hunting knives quickly and now the others could see how incredibly fast his hands were after being single for twenty-five years.
Such a big, fresh wolf leg and belly were chopped into minced meat in less than a minute. The audience was stunned by his moves.
While cooking the soup, Chen B-Dog spoke, “Even if there is a fire over here, the temperature is considered low. I am not sure how well tiger newborns can resist the cold and I don’t dare to take the risk. So I need to make them some clothes to keep warm. Just to let them survive through the first winter night. Otherwise, it is really a sin if the newborn dies before they get to see the Sun of the next day.”
He took the tiger skin out and spoke to the camera, “This skin belongs to their mother and I want to turn it into their clothes. Perhaps the skin still has the tigress’s smell and will make them feel more comfortable.”
“Normally, after the animal is skinned, it will undergo many procedures for processing. First, soak the skin. After drying, they will use the dull scraper knife to scrape the fat and meat residue attached to the dried skin. Next, they will soak it in clear water for 1 to 2 days to soften it. The second step will be degreasing. Apply 2% sodium carbonate solution on the board and avoid contact between the solution and the skin. After 10 to 20 minutes, clean it with clear water. Then soak the skin with the mixture of warm water and 2% detergent solution. After 10 minutes, clean it with clear water. The following steps include tawing, fine polishing, tanning and other procedures that will require the use of chemicals.”
“But the traditional hunter will not follow the procedures. They will use a frame to stretch the tiger skin to avoid it from shrinking. Then they will put it under the hot sun. After drying they will tear off the fat and meat residue under the skin. As for me, it will be much simpler. I can use the knife and complete these two steps in one time.”
While talking, he took the knife and started to scrape the stretched skin. The skill of dismembering an ox with a butcher was implying the skill that used a thin knife to cut the gaps between the bones and did not damage the bones. The more delicate the object, the more an exquisite cutting skill was required.
What was the Ox Butcher Knife?
An honest chef, a legendary ox butcher knife which could separate the heaven and the earth and a legendary cuisine book which recorded the immortal feast recipe. After the founder of Ox Butcher sealed the legendary Ox Butcher Knife for a thousand years, the drama between the good and evil chef was staged, the godlike culinary skill and the evil, demonic, poisonous food. It was a confusing cooking era! I might not be the magical and powerful immortal but the cuisine I cooked could bring you to the fairyland!
The outsiders just came along for the ride. They could only see the knife cutting the thin skin fat and scraping it out. Then the bottom skin appeared. Everything looked spick and span but they did not know how much skill was needed to do this.
Chen B-Dog used the knife end to make a row of holes at the edge of tiger skin. Then, he found a small thorn and strung with the tiger tendons up. Next, He started his needlework.
“Oh, here is a reminder. Under a low temperature environment, do not touch any metal with bare hands. Remember to wear the hand gloves when holding the knife. Otherwise, your skin will be torn off. It is more serious than burning fire.”
The needlework he did before was limited to mending his torn pants. However, he had 18 points of agility now. He was definitely a handyman and it was not difficult for him to sew a tiger skin.
“Ding, sewing skill activated. Currently LV1 (1/10)!”
This was even better; a lot of sewing knowledge entered his brain. Placing the tiger skin on his palm, he sewed the tiger skin with a wood needle and tiger tendons. It was absolutely handy and easy. Besides that, he also used the wolf skin and rabbit skin.
A moment later, he had made a conjoined baby bib. The bib was made from a piece of skin. They were furry and were large enough to fit the two little ones.
It was probably because they were too hungry; the tiger cubs crawled out from their nests and were howling. Chen B-Dog took them up. The wind was blowing and they were shivering due to coldness, thus B-Dog immediately put them into the bibs to warm their body. It fitted them well.
“It is completed!”
The live broadcast room full of bustle at this moment.
“Amazing. Being a man, you are so good at needlework. How will the women survive?”
“If you were a girl, I will marry you.”
Sunset Dust, “I feel inferior. Suddenly I feel like my needlework is poorer than B-Dog’s.”
“Here comes little sister Sunset.”
“I caught a wild Ms. Tycoon alive.”
Chen B-Dog was also satisfied with it. He stirred the soup and said, “The meat was minced. I guess it is as fine as the rice water. It is almost cooked. I will leave it for a while and feed the cubs when it is cooled.”
“I don’t know whether they have been fed with breast milk. If the newborn tiger cubs have no chance to feed with the colostrum, they might not survive long. Anyway, we have to make do with what we have. Even if you kill me, I can’t squeeze a drop of milk out.”
The tiger cubs kept crying. B-Dog carved the wood and made a spoon to try the meat soup. The taste was not good because he did not add any salt in. He blew the soup and licked it again. He only fed the tiger cubs after he had confirmed the temperature was right. The tiger cubs were starved. Once the food reached their mouths, they licked it off immediately.
“It works. Keep on feeding.”
He fed the tiger cubs one by one, spoon by spoon. Every time he had to make sure the temperature was right, neither too hot nor too cold. The way he fed carefully was making the eyes of the female audience shine. And they did not forget to take this opportunity to screenshot B-Dog.
After busying for almost half a day in his starved condition without eating any food yet, he finally finished feeding the cubs. The cubs crawled back into the tiger skin blanket. Chen B-Dog sighed endlessly and said, “I swear. This is my first time being so careful. And it happened while feeding two tigers. According to the feeding plan of a kitten, I need to feed them every two hours. The portion need not be too much. A newborn kitten would eat 4 to 6cc. Let’s add more for the Siberian Tiger Cub, how about 8 to 10cc? Besides that, I have to stimulate their anuses with a warm towel to help them defecate.”
“… All right.”
He shrugged his shoulders, “I guess I won’t sleep tonight. Indeed, mothers have the most difficult role in the world.”
What else could the audience say? They could only send the pop-out comments of “Bravo” and send the gifts to encourage him.
“Come on, Lord B-Dog. I will support you forever.”
“Lord B-Dog you are so adorable. I want to marry you.”
“The Research Institute of the Dongbei Endangered Animal of Forestry Ministry treats 1 Buddha Jumps over the Wall to anchor Chen B-Dog.” He left the message, “Mr. Chen B-Dog, please take good care of the Siberian tiger cubs and let us know your position to ensure our staff can contact you in time. I represent the Forestry Ministry to thank you for what you have done.”
“Bravo, I am giving full marks for this round. And I am from the State Department.”
“The Forestry Ministry is sending a gift to Lord B-Dog. Really?”
“Lord B-Dog, you have committed a crime. Remember not to open the door when the police come.”
“Chris, close the door. And close the Iron Gate at the downstairs. Do not let the police come in.”
“Game over, the police is coming!”
