Chen JianShe first placed the wild boar on a large rock under the shed, then picked up a knife and brought it down, instantly making a cut in the boar's body.
With a few more chops, a piece of pork was cut off.
Gu Jiaojiao was a bit unsettled by the scene, so she quickly took the meat and left.
Chen JianShe didn't know carpentry and couldn't help, so he just went back to butchering the wild boar.
Leng Yuan paid Chen JianShe no mind. He took out a wooden box from the woodshed and opened it, revealing a dazzling array of tools.
The most eye-catching among them were several sharp steel knives, small and exquisitely shaped, used for carving.
Leng Yuan first stripped the bark from the pine log. Following the mold design Gu Jiaojiao wanted, he marked the dimensions and began his work.
For lunch, Gu Jiaojiao made braised pork.
The spices were ones she had foraged on the mountain, and she had also added some medicinal herbs.
