hunting in 1986

Chapter 135 Chapter 134
In the Spring Festival Gala in 1988, there was a sketch performed by Zhao Lirong and Mr. You Benchang - "Emergency", a song sung by Mao Amin, a peacock dance by Yang Liping - "Spirit of the Bird" and so on.

Li Yan watched it with gusto, feeling it was an eye-opener.

The cold wind whistled outside the window, and the firecrackers burst out.

Wang Yuan and Li Yan, a young couple, snuggled up next to the quilt in the house and watched TV. Li Yan smiled and said:
"Is the singer's name Mao Amin? Her hairstyle is pretty nice. Why don't I have a similar haircut after the Chinese New Year?"

Wang Yuan hugged her in his arms and said with a smile: "It's ok, but I don't know if the hairdresser can cut it out."

There is a custom of keeping the year old on the night of New Year's Eve. After midnight, the sound of firecrackers outside suddenly became denser.

"Bang bang bang~"

"Whoosh whoosh~"

"Boom boom~"

All kinds of firecrackers sounded together, which not only frightened the dogs to run around, but also represented saying goodbye to the old and ushering in the new, eliminating disasters and solving difficulties, and ushering in the new year with a brand new look.

The two only slept for 5 hours.

Get up quickly before dawn, put on new clothes and go to my mother's yard to eat dumplings.

The bright moon was hanging in the sky, and the stars were dotted. When the two of them stepped on the snow and came to my mother's yard, they happened to see the little girl playing in the yard with a small lantern.

"Little girl, isn't it cold to play outside?"

"It's not cold, second brother, look at the lantern my dad made for me!"

The little girl ran over happily wearing new clothes. The lantern she was carrying was made of wooden sticks pasted with paper, and there were two small animals painted on the outside, who didn't know whether they were monkeys or pigs.

There is a candle burning inside the lantern, and the light from the candle shines through the gap of the lantern, illuminating the snow on the ground.

"It's pretty nice, okay, let's go into the house quickly."

"Oh, let me play for a while."

Just as the little girl finished speaking in a milky way, the frisky old wolf dog rushed over and knocked the little girl to the ground.

slap~
After the lantern fell to the ground, it was stepped on by the old wolf dog a few times, and it was scrapped in an instant.

The little girl sat on the ground, seeing her new lantern being destroyed in this way, she cried loudly with a "wow" in an instant.

Compared with previous years, the little girl's physique is indeed much stronger, otherwise she wouldn't cry so loudly.

No matter how much Wang Yuan and Li Yan tried to persuade her, they couldn't persuade her. In the end, the mother rushed out and slapped the little girl's ass:
"You are not allowed to cry on the first day of the Lunar New Year! Hold back! You are wearing new clothes, let's see how you get rid of them."

"The dog... the dog trampled on my lantern." The little girl's fair face was still wet with tears, but she didn't dare to cry after all.

After all, my mother's loving slap really hurts.

The old mother glanced at the timid old wolf dog beside him, who looked like a child who had done something wrong, and then directly picked up the little girl and walked into the house.

"If a broken lantern is trampled on, it will be trampled. Your father is really free to fix this thing for you. Hurry up and go back to the house. If you have a cold and a cold, you need injections and medicines. That's not money."

The little girl was held by her mother Lin Zai and didn't dare to refute, but her pursed mouth showed that she obviously didn't agree with her mother's words.

After entering the house, Li Yan rolled up her sleeves to help cook.

Eldest brother Wang Wen came back yesterday morning. He was helping to light the fire. Dad was sitting in the back room watching TV. Last night's Spring Festival Gala program was still playing on TV repeatedly.

After the dumplings were cooked, Dad went outside and set off two firecrackers, bang bang bang~ Then everyone started eating.

The second uncle, third uncle and grandma also started to set off firecrackers and eat.

After the meal, everyone went to some elders' homes to pay New Year's greetings, chatting, and sitting in each family. It was almost 8 o'clock when we got home, and the sky had completely brightened.

Wang Yuan was about to go to the kang to sleep beautifully back into the cage, but the big white cat insisted on lying on him, and finally suppressed the big white cat, but the voice of big brother Wang Wen sounded outside.

"Is Yuanzi at home?"

"Here I am!"

Wang Yuan knew that he would not be able to sleep after this sleep, so he opened the door to welcome them out. The two of them walked south along the road of the village chief without going back to the house, chatting while walking.

The big white cat still wanted to lie on Wang Yuan's chest, but it waited and waited and waited for him to come back. In the end, it simply curled up on the pillow, purring and sleeping soundly.

……

The cold wind was blowing, the sun was shining golden on the houses in the village, chickens were crowing and dogs were barking, and there were bursts of laughter from the people who played cards.

"Brother, I heard from Xiaoqing that you are going to be transferred to the county agricultural bureau?"

"Yeah, I came to the village after I graduated, and I've been here for a long time. The college students who came with me have already gone to the county."

After arriving at the entrance of the village, the two brothers stood on a hillock smoking a cigarette, looking far away, there were stretches of snow-covered trees in the distance.

The scenery is endless and spectacular.

After a long silence, Wang Wencai who was standing on the right took a puff of cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring and said, "What will our country be like in the future?"

One day after he came back, Wang Wen learned a lot about Wang Yuan from his grandparents, parents and others.

Go to Yanjing, go to Jinshi, set up restaurants, open chicken farms, many things are done very beautifully, and the whole is booming.

This made Wang Wen look at Wang Yuan with admiration. Although his younger brother didn't go to university, it seemed that his intelligence was not wasted.

Unlike the bitter life of most farmers, Wang Yuan's family lives very well.

So Wang Wen is also willing to talk to Wang Yuan about some things.

Wang Yuan smiled confidently: "On the whole, it will definitely get better and better."

"Really? Why do you say that?" Wang Wen felt very novel.

Wang Yuan knew the general direction of the future, and it was much easier to reverse the scale based on the results. The two stood on the slope and chatted for more than half an hour, and there were more and more cigarette butts on the ground.

Wang Wen's eyes became brighter and brighter. He didn't expect his younger brother to understand many policy-related things very clearly. For all this, Wang Yuan attributed all of this to his friend in Yanjing.

Wang Wen nodded in agreement with his statement.

Wang Yuan also wanted his elder brother Wang Wen to go further, so he told him some things he knew, hoping to exert some influence on his thinking.

As for what kind of height the eldest brother can reach in the end, it depends on him.

When he was about to go home, the eldest brother Wang Wen suddenly said: "By the way, Xiaoyuan, many people in the county have said that guns will be searched after the New Year, and your shotgun should be hidden in advance so that it will not be found by others."

"Huh? I found out about our grandfather and uncle's guns, and I let them hide them too."

"Well, don't worry about other people, and don't publicize this matter."

"I understand." Wang Yuan nodded.

For several days in a row, I spent visiting relatives and paying New Year's greetings, eating and drinking.

Finally, on the eighth day of the eighth day, Wang Yuan, Sun Dagang, and Sun Dagang's wife "Aunt Sun" got on the train bound for HLBE together.

woo~
The melodious sound of the train's whistle conveyed a sense of coldness. Amid the heavy snowflakes, the dilapidated green leather train started slowly.

wow~
Sun Dagang and Aunt Sun sat across from Wang Yuan. The old lady drew the curtain on the car window and looked at the endless forest, sea and snow field, her face was full of longing and excitement.

She married Lindu from HLBE, and it took a year to go back to meet her parents.

Sun Dagang came back from drinking an enamel jar of hot water. He was a dutiful son and pushed the enamel jar to his mother:
"Mom, drink water, we will see grandma and grandpa soon."

"Well, Mom is happy, I haven't seen them for a year, and I don't know if your grandparents are still hard or not."

The speed of the train slowly increased, and besides, besides~ Wang Yuan wrapped his cotton coat tightly, and then nestled on the seat and began to sleep. His purpose of going to HLBE was also very simple.

One is to look for opportunities to buy more ammunition. There are often wolves on the grassland, which seriously threatens the safety of the herdsmen. Therefore, the management of guns and ammunition has to be much lax.

The second is to come and play and see if there is a chance to shoot a wild sheep, or a gray wolf or something.

It was very cold on the train, and Wang Yuan, who was wearing thick cotton trousers, felt his legs were a little numb. After squinting for a while, he stood up and moved around, stomping his feet, and then glanced outside for a moment, his eyes widened.

I saw that the train was passing through a large forest farm. Not far from the railroad tracks were piles of pine logs that were piled up like hills, rolling up and down. People stood in front of those pine logs, as small as an ant. The scene was so spectacular.

The other people in the carriage also saw the scene outside the window, and there were instant discussions.

"How many trees from the top of the mountain have been cut down?"

"There are so many woods, it would be great to share some of them with us. There are so many woods, so there is no difference between the few woods."

"It's too bad, it can still be cut for a few years if it is cut like this."

……

Riding the green leather train is really a torment, coupled with poor sleep and eating, many people are very irritable, and even a small conflict is likely to lead to a fight.

Along the way, Wang Yuan saw no less than four fights. Of course, both sides of the fight were quickly taken away by the marshals. Others may feel more depressed when they see the fights, and feel that the surrounding environment is poor.

But Wang Yuan was very optimistic. He felt that every fight was like a very real combat performance, and he watched it with relish, and even occasionally yelled a few words with others:
"Don't be cowardly, fuck him!!"

Sun Dagang's mother and son laughed out loud at Wang Yuan's behavior, and the oppressive atmosphere on the train dissipated quite a bit.

After a long journey, it was already past 9 o'clock at night when the train arrived at HLBE.

The cold wind blowing from Siberia was extremely cold. As soon as he left the station, a strong cold wind blew over his head and covered his face, instantly causing a feeling of suffocation.

It was like being hit hard by someone.

Aunt Sun looked at the stars in the sky, her teeth trembling from the cold: "Let's find a hotel to stay overnight."

"Okay, when I came here last year, I stayed in a hotel in the north. It's not bad, let's go there."

"Do you want to take a taxi there?"

"Farewell, taxis are expensive in the first place, and the taxis at night are as black as Li Kui. They are so ruthless in killing people."

Sun Dagang didn't want to recall the experience of being brutally slaughtered, so he took Aunt Sun and Wang Yuan to run north. The three people carrying a lot of things ran like three balls.

"Run, it won't be cold after running."

The night was filled with starlight hanging down like a veil. There were very few pedestrians on the street, and only occasionally a bicycle or a taxi with no buttocks passed by.

According to Sun Dagang, the railway station side is obviously deserted when there are few people, and the Hailaer staff club side is lively and there are many people at night.

Soon came to the hotel - a small two-story building, the owner is an uncle of Russian ethnicity, he still remembered Sun Dagang and Aunt Sun, directly arranged two rooms for him, and soon ordered food.

Milk tea, roast mutton, roast Leba and so on.

Sitting in the warm room felt comfortable all over, and beads of sweat appeared on my forehead all the way.

Wang Yuan picked up a cup of fragrant milk tea and took a sip, yo~ and pearls.

Under the explanation of the Russian uncle, he realized that the fried rice was added to the milk tea.

bang~
Another guest came downstairs, so the shopkeeper left their room and closed the door behind them.

There were brightly colored blankets on the floor, and a low wooden table in the middle. The three of them sat on the blankets and ate their meals.

The temperature in the room was very high, so Wang Yuan took off the padded jacket, revealing the light gray sweater that Li Yan knitted for him inside.

Sun Dagang ate the roast mutton, felt a little choked, and took a big sip of milk tea: "Xiao Yuan, are you still used to drinking this milk tea? My grandpa's family drinks milk tea every morning."

"It's okay, besides fried rice, tea and milk, there are other things here, right?"

"Yes, you can put butter, milk skin, and milk tofu, and you can also put some sugar and salt." Sun Dagang said with a smile:
"This kind of thing is the same as cooking. I want to put something according to my personal taste."

Wang Yuan nodded. At this time, milk tea should not have technology and hard work.

All three of them were exhausted, so they went to bed after eating. Aunt Sun shared a room alone, while Wang Yuan and Sun Dagang shared a room.

Early tomorrow morning they will take a bus to Ena City, where Grandpa Sun Dagang's pasture is located.

……

The morning light outside the window is faint, there are still a few residual stars hanging in the sky, the cold wind that has been blowing all night has stopped, and the world seems to be quiet and peaceful.

Wang Yuan lay on the bed and fell asleep beautifully. He was meeting Li Yan in his dream and was happily playing by the river under the warm spring sun. Sun Dagang's snoring sound woke him up directly.

"Hoohoo~~"

The sound coming from the inside of the neck made Wang Yuan's scalp tingle, and the final sound made the old elder grow long. Wang Yuan wondered if he would suffocate himself to death.

"Da Gang, wake up, wake up..."

Sun Dagang woke up suddenly, and blurted out: "What's wrong? I didn't snore."

Wang Yuan was stunned for a moment. Wasn't he the one who snored just now? Could it be himself?

Sun Dagang continued to sleep, but Wang Yuan lost his sleepiness, put on his clothes and left the room, and went downstairs to settle the fee.

In the morning, the three of them continued their journey after having breakfast. They first took a bus to Ena City, and then hired a bullock cart to slowly arrive at Sun Dagang's grandma's house.

Looking to the west, there is an endless grassland covered with snow, and under the sunlight at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the little golden light is eye-catching.

Looking to the northeast, there is the remaining vein of Daxing'an Mountains. There are patches of trees standing tall and straight in the wind and snow, and deer running past can be vaguely seen.

The ox cart was rattling and rattling on the snowfield, and from a distance, five people came out of the yurt to welcome them, namely Sun Dagang’s grandfather and grandma—Old Suhe and Uzhina.Uncle and aunt—Xiao Suhe, Tuya.And uncle Lakshin.

Both old Suhe and young Suhe were as strong as a cow, only "Lakshin" was thin and small, and his thighs were probably not as thick as his brother's arms.

For their daughter's return, Lao Suhe and his wife were extremely happy, and they cooked roasted whole lamb in the evening.

A group of people sitting in the yurt ate roasted whole lamb and drank milk wine, really happy.

Wang Yuan didn't quite understand the words of the old Su He and his wife. Fortunately, the young Su He and Lakshin could speak some Mandarin Chinese, and they could barely communicate if they spoke slowly.

After eating, Wang Yuan unpacked the luggage he carried. In addition to his own clothes, there were white sugar, canned food, high-quality tea, dried blueberries, and two bottles of Beidahuang 60-degree liquor for Lao Suhe’s family. And 5 sharp iron knives.

Finally, Wang Yuan took out his shotgun from inside.

Sun Dagang was stunned: "Xiaoyuan, why did you bring these things on the train? Why haven't you been found out?"

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Anyway, they were not found out. Before you came, didn't you say that there is a lack of sharp iron, tea, sugar and so on?

These things are all given to your grandpa’s house, and they will be deducted from the cost of my room and board here. If they don’t understand what I say, you can translate for me. "

"Hey, without these things, my grandpa and the others would definitely take care of wine and meat. They are very hospitable... These things are carried all the way, how heavy are they? There is really no need to bring them."

On the surface, Sun Dagang blamed him, but in his heart he was still happy. The things Wang Yuan brought were indeed quite scarce in the grassland.

Wang Yuan wanted to go hunting, and Xiao Suhe happily decided to take him to hunt wild sheep the next day.

A good night's dream.

Early the next morning, after drinking milk tea made from cow dung, and eating some fried rice, Wang Yuan, Xiao Suhe, and Sun Dagang walked west with their hunting guns on their backs.

Xiao Suhe is only 19 years old this year. He has a strong physique, thick hair, a big nose, drooping eyelids, and his eyes are slightly narrowed from time to time. He is a good hunter by nature.

"Go forward, there is a place where wild sheep often appear, believe me, we will definitely gain something!" Xiao Suhe looked like a fluffy wild sheep in a sheepskin coat.

"How many wild sheep are there?"

"A lot! There are a lot! There are more in summer." Xiao Suhe waved his arms: "At that time, there will be groups of wild sheep going to the Ergun River to drink water."

The three of them walked on the grassland with shotguns on their backs, followed by three tall hounds, and soon spotted a fox in the distance.

The fox's hair is also white, which means Wang Yuan has good eyesight, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to spot it.

"fox!"

"It's a bit too far away." Xiao Su raised his gun to aim, his eyes were cold and stern, and the sunlight fell on the gun, reflecting a gleam of light.

Sudden.

Xiao Suhe pulled the trigger, and a bullet shot out instantly, bang~
