The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

Chapter 585 The Fire Rat Drills the Badger's Hole (September Monthly Ticket Plus 9)

Entering October, the days in the Northeast become shorter.

Around 05:30, it was dark in the mountain village, and every household smoked from the kitchen.
Zhang Yuanmin's family has no employees, and Xiao Lingdang is the only one who goes to school and returns early from school.

Yang Yufeng stewed a dish, fried a dish, mixed a cold dish, and cut a box of canned luncheon meat.

Then the three of them sat on the kang, eating and drinking, talking and laughing.

Yang Yufeng and Xiaolingdang mainly ate, only Zhang Yuanmin drank wine happily.

This old boy refused to eat four dishes, insisting on roasting peanuts for wine.

The peanuts were brought to him by Zhang Yuan and Zhang Wei.

The two brothers learned art from Zhang Yuanmin at the beginning of the spring, and came to set fire to the black bear warehouse, but their lack of skill led to failure.

In the end, Zhao Jun took action, beat the black bear, and sold the bear bile to Zhang Yuanmin.And Zhang Yuanmin did not lose to the two brothers. Before going to the Yongxing Brigade, Zhang Yuanmin entrusted someone to send the money to Zhang Yuan and Zhang Wei.

Although the two brothers were a little messed up, they also knew how to repay their kindness. When the family was collecting peanuts, they asked someone to deliver a sack to Zhang Yuanmin.Yang Yufeng fried the peanuts and gave half of them to Zhao Jun's family.

For Zhang Yuanmin, these peanuts are not ordinary peanuts, each of them has a great meaning.

So he didn't eat any of the four dishes, and just ate the peanuts with wine.

It was the right way for peanuts to drink, and he was not at home for several days. When Zhang Yuanmin was happy, he began to tell stories to Yang Yufeng and Xiaolingdang.

This guy has only been studying for three days, and he reads a little book, and he can't even mark the words he doesn't know in pinyin, he can only mark the homophones.

But to put it bluntly, it's leveraged.

The two escaped from the tiger's mouth and planned to destroy Xiongba. Yang Yufeng and Xiaolingdang who heard these two stories were dumbfounded and panicked.

But some people, once they drink some wine, they can't stop talking, the key is that they can grind their mouths, just say one thing, say it again and again, for fear that others won't understand.

No matter how wonderful the story is, even hearing it three times is tiring.The smiles on the faces of Yang Yufeng and Xiaolingdang gradually disappeared, and Yang Yufeng gave Zhang Yuanmin a tug and said, "Hurry up and eat, I have to clean up the table after eating."

"What's the rush?" Zhang Yuanmin looked at the food on the table and asked Yang Yufeng with a smile, "Daughter-in-law, tell me, who is responsible for our family's good life?"

When he said this, Zhang Yuanmin still held out his chest, waiting for Yang Yufeng to praise him.

But Yang Yufeng glanced at Zhang Yuanmin, and said unceremoniously: "This is all thanks to our brothers."

"Huh?" Zhang Yuanmin was taken aback when he heard the words, but when he thought of Zhao Jun, he regained consciousness a little, nodded and said, "That's true."

"Isn't that right!" Yang Yufeng continued, "I didn't expect that you would be lucky if you let the black blind man kick you out!"

Zhang Yuanmin, who was slightly tipsy from the wine, was speechless for a moment. He couldn't brag about this anymore, and he turned his attention to the little bell who was eating luncheon meat.

No matter when, even during the most difficult two years of this family, this child is Zhang Yuanmin's pride.

Glancing at the little bell, Zhang Yuanmin felt proud again, and said to Yang Yufeng, "Our eldest son is so successful, who can he follow?"

Yang Yufeng couldn't help curling her lips when she heard the words, and said angrily, "As you please!"

Looking at this expression and hearing this tone, one should know that what Yang Yufeng said was ironic, but as for Zhang Yuanmin, he laughed and said, "You're right!"

At this time, Xiao Lingdang put down the leftover luncheon meat and frowned at Zhang Yuanmin.

This little girl has been studying hard since the first day she picked up the book. She can memorize every sentence in the textbook.The teacher writes a sample problem on the blackboard, and she can tell which page of the book the problem is on.

At this moment, little Lingdang felt that the achievements she had obtained through her hard work were summed up by her own father's words "follow me".

Seeing his daughter staring at him with wide eyes, Zhang Yuanmin laughed and sang loudly: "Who else has this brain..."

He made up the lyrics by himself, and the tune was tuned by Errenzhuan. Yang Yufeng pushed him and said, "Don't howl, let's eat quickly."

"Don't push me." Zhang Yuanmin shrugged his shoulders in dissatisfaction, and said, "I haven't shaken it yet!"

Immediately afterwards, he continued to sing: "Who... ah, dawdling, dawdling..."

"Dad!" Suddenly, Little Bell spoke, Zhang Yuanmin's moaning and chirping stopped abruptly, and he smiled at Little Bell, "What's the matter, eldest son?"

Little Lingdang looked at Zhang Yuanmin, and asked softly, "Dad, you have such a good brain, so why didn't you and my mother have enough to eat before?"

Zhang Yuanmin: "..."

……

Compared with Zhang Yuanmin's house, the atmosphere in Zhao Jun's house was much more harmonious. The five members of their family plus Jie Chen sat around the kang table without ghosts crying or howling. They finished their meal talking and laughing.

Wang Meilan was washing dishes in the outhouse, while Zhao Jun and Xie Chen went back to the room to wash their feet and put on the kang, getting ready for bed.

Early the next morning, just after five o'clock, Zhao Jun and Xie Chen got up, put on their clothes and went outside.

I saw two cages on both sides of the fence sticks outside the yard, one was empty, and there was a big mouse in the other.

This mouse is as long as a stick from head to buttocks, and it eats round and round, presumably it is taking advantage of the fall that there is no shortage of food.

Zhao Jun returned to the yard with the cage, hung up the cage, and saved the dog from digging it up.At this time, when Xie Chen went to press the water in front of the well, Zhao Youcai trotted out from the house.

"Small!" Zhao Youcai came to Zhao Jun and asked in a low voice, "When will we go up the mountain?"

He is in a hurry!

Since most of the pocket money of five yuan was deducted, Zhao Youcai leaned against the door every day looking forward to his son's return.

Zhao Jun was finally expected to come back, but at the dinner table yesterday, Zhao Youcai couldn't tell Zhao Jun about it.

Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry. We will go up the mountain today, dig a badger hole in the morning, and look for wild boars in the afternoon. Tomorrow we will take the dog and kill two wild boars; we will go the day after tomorrow and beat a black blind man. It's time to go home. When he leaves, we will find a chance."

After Zhao Jun finished speaking, Zhao Youcai looked at him strangely, and Zhao Jun hurriedly asked, "Dad, what's the matter?"

"What you said..." Zhao Youcai had something to ask for, so he didn't say the harsh words, and only said: "The animals in this mountain seem to be able to kill whatever you want."

Zhao Jun smiled when he heard the words, raised his chin and said, "Dad, look at the dogs in our yard. Why can't we hit them?"

As he said that, Zhao Jun pointed to the warehouse again, and said, "Dad, did you come back yesterday to look at that big bear gall? It's a big bear that weighs [-] catties, and I killed it with just two 'pang pang' shots." gone."

Zhao Youcai pursed his lips and whispered, "If I want to fight like you, I can do it too."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Youcai also pointed to the warehouse, but instead of mentioning the bear gall, he asked, "Our big black... no, it's that... the black tiger and the little bear, do they go together?"

"Yeah." Zhao Jun nodded, and said, "Put it on Yongxing's side, why don't you let them put it together for later?"

After returning home from the Yongxing brigade, Zhao Jun took Erhei and Hualong out of the warehouse and let Heihu and Xiaoxiong live in them.At this time, the cub is still in estrus, and it will last for about ten days. During this time, Zhao Jun will not take it up the mountain.

Hearing what Zhao Jun said, Zhao Youcai nodded his head twice, and then said to Zhao Jun, "Big boy."

"Huh?" Zhao Jun glanced at Zhao Youcai and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhao Youcai said: "You can't give away this litter of dogs that Little Xiong gave away."

"This..." Zhao Jun frowned, and said with some embarrassment: "Dad, I promised that sister-in-law Zhang that I would give her a litter of pups. Or sometimes when my elder brother Zhang is not at home, she and Ling Dang The girls are scared."

Hearing this, Zhao Youcai resisted very much in his heart, but to be honest, he also liked that child Bell.What's more, Zhang Yuanmin and Yang Yufeng are also willing to treat their family, and bring any delicious food.

"Okay, give her one." Zhao Youcai had just finished speaking, but Zhao Jun continued: "I also promised to give Jiang Nai one, the old lady is at home by herself, can that work? Why don't you give her the whole dog? A companion or something."

"This..." Zhao Youcai was speechless, and wanted to say no, but when he thought about what Zhao Jun said was right, the old lady was lonely and wanted a son, how could she not give it?

But before Zhao Youcai could speak, Zhao Jun said again: "I also promised Ma Ling to give her one."

"Return it?" When Zhao Youcai heard it, is it worth paying it back?How many puppies will Little Bear have in his next litter?According to Zhao Jun's division method, three of them will be given away, so can I have anything left for myself?
But this is the future in-laws, others have given it, so can the relatives not give it?shi
When Zhao Youcai was struggling, he only heard Wang Meilan's voice calling for dinner from the room.

After breakfast, Zhao Jun and Xie Chen changed their clothes for going up the mountain and brought the items they might need, and then took off the gun from the wall.

"Brother!" Li Baoyu broke into the house, and he was also fully dressed to go up the mountain with Zhao Jun and Xie Chen.

He asked Li Baoyu to bring Wang Meilan's steamed cakes with him, and the three of them came out of the house. When they went to the yard and saw that they were wearing clothes for going up the mountain, all the dogs became anxious.

But Zhao Jun didn't take anyone with him, he just left the house with Li Baoyu and Xie Chen, boarded the car and went straight to Zhang Yuanmin's house.

At this time, Zhang Yuanmin was also ready. Yesterday afternoon, he set up eight cages around the area and caught two mice, one big, one small, and three.

When the car arrived, Zhang Yuanmin showed Zhao Jun the rats in the cage. Zhao Jun took a look and asked Zhang Yuanmin to keep the two older ones, and just kill the younger one.

After handing over the two cages containing the big rats to Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin got on the co-pilot to show Xie Chen the way, and the group drove out of the village and went straight to the mountain field.

Walking along the road into the mountain, Zhang Yuanmin kept pointing the direction to Xie Chen. After driving for more than half an hour, the car stopped at the side of the road after nearly [-] miles.

The four got out of the car, Li Baoyu, Zhang Yuanmin, and Xie Chen each carried a cage, while Zhao Jun carried a gun.

It was still Zhang Yuanmin who led the way, and the four of them entered the forest and climbed over mountains and mountains.

After walking for more than 40 minutes, the four of them came to a relatively open place. Zhang Yuanmin pointed to a hole under a tree and said to Zhao Jun, "Brother, it's here. What do you think?"

When they came up just now, the four of them saw a large pile of sand and stones down the slope, which were all pulled out by badgers.

But it is different from digging the badger hole last month. The area around the badger hole was full of leaves, but the area around the badger hole is clean.

This is also one of the habits of badgers. After cleaning up the hole, they will hug all the leaves on the surrounding ground into the hole.

I don't know what they are collecting this for.

Stopping at the entrance of the cave, Zhao Jun led the three of them to disperse, looking for the entrance of the cave around.When they found it, they probed in with a wooden stick. After confirming that it was a badger hole, they blocked it with big stones.

Anyone with a discerning eye can understand at a glance that Zhao Jun is going to attack with fire.But the last time he was digging badger holes, Jie Chen said that he and his friends used to dig badger holes, but they failed with fire attacks.

That's because the badger cave has a smoke outlet, and if the firelight enters the cave, the smoke goes in or goes out.

This is like building a kang in the countryside. If some smoke goes in, the kang will burn easily; if some smoke goes out, the kang will not be hot.

But Zhao Jun didn't care about this at all. He took out two pairs of labor insurance gloves from his pocket, handed one pair to Zhang Yuanmin and said, "Brother, you wear two layers of gloves in one hand, and I'll catch that mouse for you."

"Hey!" Zhang Yuanmin agreed, put both gloves on his right hand, then opened the cage door, and when the mouse was about to get out, he pinched the mouse on the back of its neck.

The rat struggled in Zhang Yuanmin's hand, and even clawed at Zhang Yuanmin's glove.

Catch up.

Zhang Yuanmin held the mouse firmly, and saw Zhao Jun take out a roll of rags from his shoulder pocket. These rags were destroyed by Zhao Hong and Zhao Na's small clothes. The strip is tied around the mouse's waist, and the two ends of the strip hang down on the side of the mouse's body.

Then, Zhao Jun took out a bottle of gasoline from his pocket, and dipped a little gasoline on both ends of the cloth.

After putting away the bottle, Zhao Jun and Zhang Yuanmin said, "Brother."

Zhao Jun raised his chin at the badger hole, and Zhang Yuanmin understood, and he smiled and said, "Brother, your trick is really amazing!"

At this time, Li Baoyu couldn't help but asked from the side: "Brother, Brother Zhang, this mouse is on fire, what can I do if I go in?"

The badger hole may be deep, and it is winding.If there is too much gasoline, the rat will be burned to death before it has traveled far.If the gasoline was low, the rat didn't run very far, and the fire went out again.

There are some things that people who are also besieging can understand at a glance.In dealing with badgers, Zhang Yuanmin had more experience than Li Baoyu. He saw the doorway at a glance, and said to Li Baoyu, "Brother, just watch...ours!"

Zhao Jun and Zhang Yuanmin looked at each other and smiled, Zhao Jun said: "Brother, you should pay attention, don't burn your hands."

"It's okay." Zhang Yuanmin stuffed the mouse's head into the hole, and the mouse kept kicking its legs to grab the ground under its body, seeing that it had a place to go.

At this time, Zhao Jun struck a match and put it in front of the cloth, the volatile gasoline caught first, and the flames lit up immediately.

Zhang Yuanmin let go of the situation, he didn't touch the fire on his hands or arms, but the mouse caught fire immediately and plunged into the hole.

As the mouse entered the hole, smoke came out from the hole, but within a few seconds, there was a whistling from the hole, and thick smoke burst out.

And on the hillside, there are wisps of white smoke coming out of the ground.

Li Baoyu was stunned, he knew that the gasoline was emitting black smoke, but the white smoke... Li Baoyu's eyes lit up, and he suddenly wanted to understand why Zhao Jun had to come to break the badger hole after October [-]st.

At this time, the badger pulled in all the dry leaves around it!As soon as the dry leaves fall, isn't the hole full of smoke?
　Sending an old man this morning, going into the mountain has to burn a pit, I accidentally found a pair.This pair has been around for many years, so I took a picture and sent it to the Easter Egg Chapter. Brothers, take a look, there are two rows of wooden prongs, and there is a Kabala in front to support the mechanism.

　　Brothers, look at the footprints of small animals in the middle of the two rows of pairs.
