hunting in 1986

Chapter 27 27 Finding Ginseng
Little by little the sun sank behind the peak, and the last rays of light faded away.

"Goooooooooo~"

Under the roasting of the flames, the meat in the pot is already cooked, and the aroma of the meat tumbling is wafting out.

"Gudong~Brother Yuan, the wild rabbit you caught is really fat, and the scent goes straight into your nostrils." Wu Qian sat by the fire, swallowing his saliva constantly.

The fire illuminated a small area, and the faces of Wang Yuan and Wu Qian were also glowing red.

Beep~crack~
Wang Yuan added firewood to the pot, he said with a smile, "It's because I'm fat that I ran slowly, and then I shot him with a gun."

When a bonfire was lit in the depths of the Xiaoxing'an Mountains, Wang Yuan's mind came up with a sentence for no reason - set fire to the mountain and sit in prison.

Surrounded by vast mountains and forests, there were many dry dead branches and leaves. He was really worried that it would cause a forest fire.

"Why don't the old guys come back, I'm almost starving, or let's eat first..."

Wu Qian hadn't finished speaking when he heard rustling sounds behind him. Looking back, he saw that the old man led Wang Shuai, Liu Hui and others back, and there was a lively scene in an instant.

"Xiao Yuan, are you alright?" the old man asked with concern, his face was full of exhaustion, and his eyes were filled with anticipation.

"It's okay, my illness is all cured, and the herbs you picked are very useful."

"Hahaha~ that's good, that's good, hey, this scent..."

"Huh? It's meaty!"

"I fell asleep after drinking the herbal medicine, and I recovered from my sweating disease. I thought nothing would happen, so I went to the mountain forest to hunt some wild game for everyone to make a tooth-beating sacrifice."

Wang Yuan said slowly: "Everyone is busy, so I don't want to be idle, either."

"Haha~ What's the matter? You should rest when you are sick. Your body is the most important thing."

The old man was very happy, and looked at Wang Yuan full of admiration, the more he looked more satisfied, he was still thinking when he just walked back, if Wang Yuan's illness did not improve, then he had to go out together, this time the search for ginseng The journey will also end hastily.

No matter how important ginseng is, it is not as important as human life.

In this isolated mountain, if a small illness cannot be treated in time, it may kill a person.

Nine people sat around the fire, their shadows stretched, and they began to share food amidst laughter.

The old man directly suppressed the others, and sent two tablespoons of meat to Wang Yuan's bowl.

"Xiaoyuan, you eat more and make up for it. It's completely easy to fight... What kind of eyes do the rest of you have? Is there any problem with asking him to eat more of the prey that Xiaoyuan has shot?"

"No problem no problem."

"Come here, give me a spoonful of broth."

"It's so fragrant~ this is rabbit meat, right? It's so fat~ there's a layer of oil floating on the surface."

Going into the mountains to search for ginseng is very hard. I can't eat well and sleep well, and I'm very tired. It's also a mental torture to find ginseng all the time. Now, a bowl of broth has greatly improved everyone's sense of happiness.

Wang Yuan also munched on the rabbit meat, it was extremely tender and fragrant, and the aftertaste was endless. Sure enough, the food is the best when people are hungry.

A mouthful of rabbit meat, a mouthful of rice, another mouthful of pickled vegetables, and finally a mouthful of hot broth, so refreshing~
"Old man, how is the harvest today?" Wang Yuan asked curiously.

"Hey~ I still haven't found it, but don't be discouraged, I feel that I will find the big stick soon." The old man said encouraging words.

In fact, he himself has no idea.

In fact, it is completely normal to not find ginseng.

If every team can find big ginseng in the mountains for ten days and half a month, then there will be no one farming in the villages and towns around the Xiaoxing'an Mountains, and they will all go to the mountains to find ginseng.

The reason why most people don't go into the mountains is because it is really hard to find big ginseng.

And there are still some teams that will enter the mountain, because although it is difficult to find, there are still lucky people who can find it occasionally.

The broth was shared and eaten by everyone, and some people even licked the bowl.

Seeing a group of young people fighting and squabbling, looking full of vigor, the old man like a lump couldn't help but smile.

"Cough cough, be quiet for a while and listen to me."

"Old man, what's the matter?"

"Everyone is quite tired during this period, so tomorrow I will have a day off. I will clean my nest, take a bath and wash my clothes, and then I will buy some wild game and come back to eat."

After the old man finished speaking, the air was silent for a moment.

Then the cheers of the crowd sounded, and even the surrounding air seemed to be joyful.

Everyone was extremely excited, without sleepiness at all. They didn't know who was the first to beg the old man to tell old stories, and the others booed one after another.

"Tell me? Let's talk about it." The old man took out the big pipe, lit it, took a puff slowly, and then smiled slowly:
"The bandits are much more vicious than you can imagine, like Flying in the Sky, Xiaobawang, Suppressing Manchuria, Jiujianghao and so on.

There are so many big bandits who can be called famous, and the most powerful bandits dare to attack the county...

There was still Songjiang Province at that time, but Songjiang Province is gone now. "

"Huh?" Wang Yuan knew Songjiang Province, and he couldn't help being startled when he heard the old man talking about Songjiang Province.

Liu Hui muttered: "Flying in the air? Hiss~ Hearing this name makes me feel amazing."

The new country has only been established for more than 30 years. When the country was established, it was like the generation of veterans. The upright young people have very deep memories of many things.

In later generations, the stories told by the old people are generally about the events of the 60s and 80s, but now the stories told by the old people are mostly about the events from the Republic of China to the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China.

Compared with the stories after the 60s, very few people knew about the early days of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. Listening to the stories of bandits rampaging by the veterans, Wang Yuan couldn’t help grinning, cruel, bloody, tyrannical...

Many of them were experienced by veterans, vividly and vividly, and gradually Wang Yuan and others were fascinated by listening to them.

The starlight in the forest is very beautiful. Of course, it would be better if there were fewer mosquitoes and weed crawlers.

After a long time, the old man's desire to talk was satisfied, and he drove a group of people to sleep.

The next day.

Although we don’t press down on the mountain today, we still insist on shouting at the mountain and worshiping Laoye’s temple. After eating, we divide the work, some hunt, some repair the nest, collect firewood and so on.

There are indeed a lot of wild animals far away from the villages and towns, bang bang bang ~ I killed 5 hares, 4 sand chickens and 1 flying dragon in one morning.

One meal at noon was consumed, so all the meat was done.

Not long after eating, everyone came to the small river in the south to take a bath, wash clothes, and there was a water fight in the middle, laughter and laughter floated by the river, and the old man couldn't help laughing.

Happy times are always short-lived.

The next morning, everyone continued to press the mountain after breakfast, with high morale and a good mood.

When I was getting my meal near noon, I finally had a good harvest.

The others were seriously pressing down on the mountain, only to hear Liu Hui yell: "Balm!"

The old man was startled, and quickly turned his head to look: "Huh? What kind of goods?"

While hanging a mallet lock on the ginseng pole, Liu Hui said excitedly, "Four leaves, can you lift them?"
