The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

A thousand days at home is good, but a day out is difficult.

On the second morning when he came to Yongxing Brigade, Li Wencai steamed steamed buns and boiled cabbage soup for Zhao Jun and others.

It stands to reason that this is a normal farm meal, which is how most people eat it.

But is Zhao Jun's family an ordinary family?

When steaming steamed buns in his family, they will add fried bean noodles to the corn noodles.Stewed cabbage soup, if you stew it ten times, there will be meat in eight times at least.

But the steamed buns that Lao Litou steams are made of pure corn noodles, and the scum will fall off after one bite.Cabbage soup is just pure cabbage soup, with little oil.

Not to mention Zhao Jun, even Jie Chen, who was hungry at Zhao Jun's house, was not used to eating this.

But it's not that old Li treats them badly. This old man came from a difficult time, and he feels that it would be good to eat this.

If it wasn't for entertaining them, Li Wencai wouldn't even be able to make cabbage soup in the morning, so he cut some pickles himself and ate them with the wotou.

But Zhao Jun was not picky about his food, so he regarded it as a meal of memory of bitterness, and he did not eat less.

While they were eating, Lao Li brushed the pot to boil water, then brought in a large melon from outside, cut it into large pieces and boiled it in the cauldron.

Nested melons and potatoes are common dishes in Northeast China at this time. This big one weighs more than ten catties, but it is cooked in a short time after being put into the pot. Muddy.

Li Wencai took out half of the melon paste and left half in the cauldron so that it could cool down faster.

After Zhao Jun and the others finished their meal, they took half of the melon paste and went out to feed the dogs.

It can’t be like being at home here, there are not many dog ​​food bowls here, but when the production team used to raise deer, they surrounded the northeast corner of this compound, and there was a ready-made deer food trough. Li Wencai got up early and cleaned it out, just right. Feed it to the dog.

After opening the doors of the two sheds, the dog, which had been locked up all night, rushed out impatiently, having fun and urinating everywhere.

Only the black tiger came to the trough shaking its head and head. Before the other dogs came, it licked a couple of mouthfuls of melon paste before going to the big tree in the yard to release the water.

After the hunting dogs finished their meal, Zhao Jun asked Zhang Yuanmin and Xie Chen to lock the dogs back into the shed, and then locked the door of the shed before going back to the house to change clothes and carry guns.

Dressed neatly, they greeted Li Wencai, came out of the guest house compound, and left the Yongxing Brigade by car.

35 miles away, the Jiefang car arrived in about four to ten minutes. Zhao Jun and the others got out of the car, entered the mountain field, and went straight to the place where Zhao Jun had set off the yellow leaf trap yesterday.

Walking along the stream, not far away, I saw a yellow thing hanging from a fallen tree in front of me.

Looking at it from a distance, it looks like dried tobacco leaves or corn leaves, so it is not bad to call it a yellow leaf.

"Brother, don't come down!" Zhang Yuanmin said to Zhao Jun, and he went into the water alone with his boots on.

When he reached the fallen tree, Zhang Yuanmin stretched out his hands, holding the back of Huang Yezi's neck with his right hand and Huang Yezi's waist with his left hand, turned him back, and then shouted to Zhao Jun on the bank: "Brother, it's a mother and a child."

"Anything is fine." Zhao Jun said, "Brother, you just pick it up with your hands."

Yu Xuewen said that he wanted yellow leaves, and didn't stipulate that he should be a male or female. He just bought three cards to deal with him.

However, skinning yellow leaves, greyhounds, and sables is different from skinning wild boars, black bears, and roe deer. Skinning large prey can be done by placing them on the ground.

But small prey like yellow leaves have to be fixed.Therefore, when mountain runners pick up yellow leaves, they tie a rope around its neck and hang it on a fence pole or a nail behind a door.

At this time, the yellow leaves are just hanging on the fallen logs, so peeling them directly is easy and trouble-free.

Zhang Yuanmin agreed, and took out a small knife as long as one shank from his trouser pocket. Such a short knife was specially used for skinning.

Zhang Yuanmin once made a buckskin knife for Zhao Jun, and his own knife was left by his father, and the handle of the knife was made of An Dahan's hide.

Zhang Yuanmin's father, I think he was a good man back then. It is said that Mr. Zhang also wandered through the Xing'an Mountains and made a name for himself there.

As far as Li Ruhai came back, he heard the villagers tell about the past, and it seemed that Mr. Zhang's nickname was not very positive, either Tiger or Biao.

But one thing that cannot be denied is that Zhang Yuanmin's hands-on ability is quite strong, and he peeled off the skin of a yellow leaf with three strokes.

He rolled the yellow leaf skin into a tube and put it in his pocket, then turned around and shouted to Zhao Jun from the air: "Brother, what should I do with this set?"

"Take off the cover, all the wooden sticks have been chopped off, so don't delay others from walking." Although Zhao Jun said so, he actually didn't want people to see his method of setting the cover.

The yellow leaf cover and the can catch the foot are both secrets. Zhao Jun didn't want outsiders to learn it, otherwise he wouldn't have arranged it so far away from the Yongxing Brigade.

Zhang Yuanmin listened to Zhao Jun's instructions, took the yellow leaf meat off the cover, and threw it into the grass on the bank.

Put the cover in the water to rinse, shake the water and put it in the shoulder bag. This set can be recycled, but this fallen log is stained with the bloody smell of yellow leaves, and even if there are yellow leaves passing by, it will not go on the fallen log.

Then, according to what Zhao Jun said, Zhang Yuanmin cut off all the wooden sticks standing on the fallen log with a knife in his hand.

After finishing these, Zhang Yuanmin went ashore and walked along the stream with Zhao Jun and Xie Chen.

Five sets were played yesterday, two of them were triggered, and two yellow leaves were hung, one male and one female, both were skinned by Zhang Yuanmin, and the skins were put in his pockets. The three of them came down from the mountain and went to the opposite mountain through the passage. .

At the place where I caught my feet yesterday, I heard a roe deer call again from a long distance away.

It's not the first time, everyone has experience.

Xie Chen took out the rope from his pocket, and Zhang Yuanmin chopped the stick.Zhao Jun didn't go very far, and saw a big male roe deer lying on the ground and howling.

The big roe deer stepped on Zhu's foot, walked forward, and brought Zhu's foot out of the soil.But when the feet were caught, the big roe deer fell down before taking a few steps.

It's like domestic pet dogs, buy them that kind of dog shoes, wear them the first few times, and the puppies can't walk.

And roe deer are ungulates, they use the tips of their toes to support their bodies, so when a hoof can't touch the ground, they can't walk.

This is the power of the cans to catch the feet, and it is more practical to be small and exquisite.

A set of rope, wipe the head and tie the hooves, tie the four hooves of the big roe deer, and wear a stick in the middle, and you will get 100 yuan!
With Zhao Jun holding his gun in front, Zhang Yuanmin and Xie Chen carried the roe deer. The three came down from the mountain, threw the roe deer into the car, and returned to the Yongxing brigade.

After more than 40 minutes, the car returned to Yongxing Brigade. Zhao Jun wanted to drive the car to the brigade headquarters and hand over the roe deer and yellow leaf skin to Yu Xuewen.Exchange money for money, exchange favor for favor.

"Hey! Hi!" Not long after the car entered the village, Tao Fulin was standing by the side of the road and waving his hands.

The car stopped, Zhao Jun and Zhang Yuanmin got off the co-pilot, and asked the old man, "Old man, what are you doing here?"

"I have nothing to do. I came out to see who picked up the pine cone. I'll give it to Greyhound...huh?" Before Tao Fulin finished speaking, he heard the roe deer on the back of the car barking "squeak, squeak" Listen, the old man walked over in two steps, stood on tiptoe and leaned over the fence to take a look inside, then turned around and said to Zhao Jun, "Boy Zhao, when did you do this?"

Zhao Jun and the others left Yong'an Village at 10 o'clock, went there in 10 minutes on April, and returned in [-] minutes on Thursday.

Old Tao Tao didn't know that Zhao Jun had used the heel trap yesterday, and wondered why Zhao Jun was a roe deer all morning?

Still alive!

"Just fixed." Zhao Jun replied with a smile: "I happened to meet it, so I was caught by it."

"Ah?" The old man looked at Zhao Jun suspiciously. Tao Fulin didn't believe what Zhao Jun said, but he could only say, "Don't forget, come to dinner at night."

"I can't forget it." Seeing that Tao Fulin was about to leave, Zhao Jun hurriedly asked, "Old man, why don't you get in the car and take you home first?"

"No!" The old man waved his hand and said, "You gave me that little greyhound yesterday, but it was quite fun. It's just that my family has nothing to feed it, and if you give it sand fruit, it will always pee."

Zhao Jun heard this and said with a smile: "Then you have to feed it some dry food, you can't always eat sand fruit."

"Yeah." Tao Fulin pointed forward and said, "You guys go, I'll go up and have a look. There's a pine tower picker. I'll feed it."

"That's fine, then you slow down." Zhao Jun ordered, and got into the car with Zhang Yuanmin.As this old man, no matter who he asks for a pine cone, no one will refuse him.

So Zhao Jun ignored him and asked Xie Chen to drive straight to the brigade headquarters.

When the car arrived at the brigade, Yu Xuewen came out just in time. He poured the overnight tea left in the big tea mug under the willow tree root.

But when the car stopped and only the sound of the roe deer was left, Yu Xuewen was very surprised.

It's not even twelve o'clock, and it's too powerful to catch a big roe deer after going out for a whole morning.

But what surprised Yu Xuewen was still behind.

"Secretary Yu!" Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin, and Xie Chen all got out of the car. Zhao Jun said to Zhang Yuanmin, "Brother, give the leather to Secretary Yu and bring it back."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuanmin blindly took out a roll of yellow leaf skin from his pocket, handed it to Zhao Jun, and then he went to get a second roll.

"This...so fast?" Yu Xuewen was really shocked. Not only did he catch a big roe deer all morning, he also beat the yellow leaf for himself. This young man is too capable!
Zhao Jun unfolded the leather rolled up in his hand, and said to Xuewen: "Secretary Yu, this is a male one. The leather board is not as good as after winter, and the capillary is not as good as after heavy snowfall."

"Oh!" Yu Xuewen took the leather from Zhao Jun's hand, held it in front of his eyes, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Zhao Jun, this is difficult enough. How many people have I entrusted? I can't fix it."

Speaking of this, Yu Xuewen took the leather bag in one hand and said to Zhao Jun: "Come on, come in and talk."

Zhao Jun smiled, took another roll of leather from Zhang Yuanmin, and said to Zhang Yuanmin and Xie Chen, "Brother, you and Xie Chen help Secretary Yu carry that roe deer down."

"Hey." Zhang Yuanmin and Xie Chen followed suit, while Zhao Jun followed Yu Xuewen into the main force.

At this time, Yu Xuewen saw another roll of yellow leaf skin in Zhao Jun's hand, and couldn't help being even more surprised, "Did you hit two?"

"Yeah." Zhao Jun smiled and said, "There's still one left, and I can get it back tomorrow."

Yu Xuewen took a deep look at Zhao Jun, then took the rolled yellow leaf skin from Zhao Jun's hand, unfolded it, and stacked the two skins together.

"Secretary Yu." Zhao Jun said beside him, "This one is from the mother and son, so it's not as good as the one just now."

"It's okay." Yu Xuewen said: "An old friend of mine asked for these two yellow leaves, not for the team. As for the money, I will give it to you personally, regardless of whether it is male or female, I will pay you 40." A piece of yuan."

"Oh!" Zhao Jun hurriedly said: "Secretary Yu, how can I ask for your money, this is considered as a gift from you."

A yellow leaf costs 40 yuan, which is not as valuable as Yu Xuewen's favor.

At the beginning, Yu Xuewen helped Zhao Jun get potassium aluminum cyanate with a word.Otherwise, it would be really hard for Zhao Jun to get that thing.

This relationship has to be maintained.

"That can't be done." Yu Xuewen said in an unquestionable tone: "The money must be given to you. You have helped me a lot. How can I let you suffer?"

Yu Xuewen is also particular about people, and what he said just now is clear, the yellow leaf must be paid.Not only give money, but also remember Zhao Jun's love.

Zhao Jun understood Yu Xuewen's meaning, but said: "Secretary Yu, if you want to give money, you can't give that much. In the spring of this year, the store at the foot of the mountain collects the best yellow leaves, which are only 35 a piece. At this time, The yellow leaf leather and capillary are not good, I will give you three cards, and you can give me 50 yuan."

"Fifty...is that too little?" Yu Xuewen couldn't help frowning when he heard this.When he asked someone for help before, he specifically inquired about it.Knowing that the yellow leaves cost about 40 yuan a piece, in order not to let Zhao Jun suffer, he set a price of [-] yuan for a piece of yellow leaves.

At this time, after listening to Zhao Jun, Yu Xuewen knew that the price of the yellow leaves fluctuated, but it was not 50 yuan for three pieces.

Yu Xuewen knew that this was a friendship price given by Zhao Jun, but it did not conform to his style of conduct.

Seeing this, Zhao Jun hurriedly said: "Secretary Yu, you helped me fix potassium aluminum cyanate before. I am very happy that I can help you a little. Besides, this yellow leaf is a thing from the mountains. , I don’t mean to hit it and sell it for money, maybe 50 yuan for three.”

"Okay." Hearing what Zhao Jun said, Yu Xuewen agreed with a faint smile, but said: "I don't have any money in my pocket now, so you can't stay in the guest house this afternoon? I'll send it to you."

"No need to give it away." Zhao Jun heard it and said hurriedly: "Isn't there still one piece left, I will give it together when I order it."

"That's okay." Yu Xuewen, who had solved a big problem, was very happy at the moment, pointing to the outside of the house, and smiled at Zhao Jun: "The roe deer's money will be counted for you when you leave. That It’s the team’s money, and it’s not bad.”

"It's definitely not bad." Zhao Jun smiled and said, "With you and Uncle Tao here, what am I afraid of?"

Yu Xuewen laughed, Zhao Jun immediately thought of something, and asked Yu Xuewen, "Secretary Yu, it stands to reason that all villages in our brigade must have yellow leaves. It shouldn't be so hard."

Huang Zizi is not only kept in the mountains and in the wild, but also wanders around the village, stealing chickens and ducks, and catching mice are common things.

These days, in order to protect food, many families have given rat poison.And these poisoned rats became a source of food for the yellow leaves.

But those dead rats are poisonous, and if you eat them, the yellow leaves will also be poisoned.

The cortex of the yellow leaves that died of poisoning will not be affected.Could it be that such a big Yongxing brigade didn't pick up dead yellow leaves?

Hearing Zhao Jun's words, Yu Xuewen narrowed his eyes and frowned slightly, as if he was recalling the past, then raised his head slightly and said: "Nine years ago, right? Our fifth team was surrounded by Huang Zizi. It's a no-brainer, I will The cannon was pulled out, and two cannons were fired. When the job is over, our hunter team will not do anything, just put the yellow leaves around the brigade for half a year, and there will be no more!"
