Chapter 824: Chapter 807: Exquisite Fresh Soup

As the top insulation material in nature, the quality of the down on wild swans is exceptionally high. A single cluster of down resembles a small dandelion, and pulling a few clusters, it forms a small pile in hand, looking exceptionally fluffy even to the naked eye. It’s far superior to the down used in premium brand jackets like Arcteryx and Canada Goose.

Afraid it would be blown away by the heat from the fireplace, Yue Feng carefully tucked it into his sleeping bag like a treasure, then bowed his head to continue his work.

Before he knew it, several hours had passed. Yue Feng focused mainly on handling the high-quality down on the swan, and during breaks from plucking, he occasionally chatted and interacted with the livestream audience, making time pass quickly.

At its peak, the number of viewers in Yue Feng’s livestream exceeded 150,000 and maintained this level for quite a long time, which is an excellent figure.

After Yue Feng’s meticulous work, he finally managed to pluck all the down from the swan. The once fluffy swan now looked like a plucked chicken stripped of its downy pants, the only difference being its larger size.

Yue Feng stood up and stretched, just about to speak when his stomach growled involuntarily.

On the way back, he was so immersed in the joy of successfully hunting swan that he didn’t feel hungry. Having been busy for so long, it was already past two, almost three in the afternoon, and he hadn’t eaten lunch yet!

“Uh, the manual plucking is done, but I seem to have forgotten to have lunch, and I’m starving!” Yue Feng humorously rubbed his stomach.

“Hahaha, so focused on plucking! Always mumbling about not damaging the down while it’s warm, Brother Feng, you’re hysterical!”

“Now that the prey has been cleaned up, the next step is to slice it up, and arrange to stew the swan in an iron pot!”

“It’ll probably take quite a while to cook it thoroughly. Although the swan has been plucked clean, the innards haven’t been dealt with yet!”

Yue Feng stared at the bare swan, took a deep breath, and said, “Damn it, anyway, it doesn’t matter to take a moment more. Today, we’ll make clay pot stewed swan; lunch and dinner will be together! Let’s go by the river to clean the innards!”

Yue Feng didn’t have an iron pot to stew the swan, but at this moment, there were more than just the options of a solo camping pot; he had fired two complete clay pots. With proper heat control, they should suffice for cooking food!

Thus, in the morning, Yue Feng was a professional hunter, but by the afternoon, he became a food streamer.

With the viewers, he processed the ingredients, gathered wild berries and lichens around the camp, and finally raided mushrooms collected by squirrels. After all this effort, he successfully made a large pot of all-natural, chemical-free swan stew.

A large piece of swan, after processing and plucking, left about six or seven pounds of meat. Yue Feng cut it all into large chunks using a military knife and stuffed them into the clay pot, ignited a fire underneath, and began to cook.

The old saying often uses a toad wanting to eat swan meat to describe someone’s grand desires. Yue Feng personally smelled the swan meat and couldn’t help but sigh; the saying certainly doesn’t do justice to the toad.

Unlike grouse, swans have a very rich subcutaneous fat layer. After boiling, when mixed with the wild mushroom aroma, even with just a pinch of salt, the taste is incredibly delicious.

After cooking on medium heat for over two hours until near dusk, he opened the handcrafted lid, and the whole shelter was filled with a rich aroma.

Yue Feng inhaled deeply with contentment and marveled, “What a scent! Honestly, this is the most aromatic broth I’ve ever smelled in my life; I’m starving, let me taste it for everyone!”

Having said that, Yue Feng used a wooden spoon to scoop up some broth from the pot, slurping from a roughly made ceramic bowl. The savory taste exploded on his taste buds, and in an instant, he felt all his pores open!

“Mmm, one word, delicious! Fresh, extremely savory! It’s a different kind of savory compared to fish broth! To describe it in more detail, it’s the combination of the swan’s subcutaneous fat with the fragrance of wild mushrooms, further mixed with the light scent of lichens. The selection of ingredients matches perfectly, combined with the unique flavor developed by stewing in a clay pot. Delicious, so delicious!”

With a sip of broth, Yue Feng instantly became a gourmet, holding the bowl with a face full of pleasure and unconsciously squinting his eyes while expressing emotions that stunned the audience in the live stream room.

“Damn it, Brother Feng, that expression looks sly! Are you really teasing us on purpose, brothers?”

“+1 to the brother above, maybe it tastes awful, and he’s teasing us intentionally!”

“Intentional or not, seeing Brother Feng drink this broth makes the meal in my hand suddenly less appealing!”

“Don’t just drink the broth, serve up the swan meat as well! We can’t taste it, but watching Brother Feng eat is fine too!”

“Serve up the swan meat!”

“Yes, serve up the swan meat!”

A group of people started to clamor again instantly.

Yue Feng didn’t hesitate, using his homemade pine chopsticks to pick out a succulent leg from the pot. Without any superfluous words, he just started gnawing at it.

Swan meat is firm and tasty, without the gamey smell of domestically raised poultry.

The feeling is just like watching Ji Gong gnaw on a dog’s leg on TV as a kid; that aromatic scent is indescribable!

“An outdoor streamer, gnawing on swan meat live, I think Brother Feng has a talent for being a mukbang streamer, damn, watching makes my mouth water!”

“A million-follower outdoor streamer, eating swan meat to make fans drool, a real non-competitive series!”

“Does anyone know if swans are bred domestically in China, so that it’s legal to eat them? Damn, watching Brother Feng’s stream makes life feel so dull! I want to taste it!”

“Tried bear paws, snow rabbits, porcupines, grouse, and not to mention various cold-water fish, what’s next to eat? Brothers, place your bets!”

While fans were making various humorous complaints about Yue Feng, suddenly a message appeared on the main screen, immediately catching everyone’s attention.

“Stop arguing, Little Brother Number Eight just successfully hunted a muskox, Yue Feng’s biggest rival has arrived!”

“Number Eight, Claude? That retired African-American soldier? Really?”

“Really, on his way back from tracking prey, he encountered a lone muskox. After chasing and bleeding it out, he managed to kill it! He’s streaming now!”

“Wow, a grown muskox weighs at least more than a thousand pounds. I’ll go check it out first; I’ll be back later!”

“I’m going too, Brother Feng, hang in there, I’ll be back as soon as I’ve confirmed the news!”

“I’m also going to have a look!”

The live stream room, which had over a hundred thousand viewers, immediately lost a third. Compared to other live stream rooms, Number Eight’s, a fellow international streamer, is one that domestic spectators are more curious about. Although his content isn’t as entertaining, his skills are equally impressive. He’s been constantly hunting large game recently, and unexpectedly, he succeeded this time!
