Catch the Mountain 1985

Chapter 339 Report the situation
Zhang Peng and Wang Xiaoli were waiting for Zhao Chunming to come back. Zhao Chunming and the others were walking around in the forest, trying hard to find traces on the ground. However, the forest was too big and it was not easy to find traces of prey. , the most seen are the traces of rabbits and mice, which are not in short supply in the forest.
"Brother, we've been searching for so long, why haven't we found anything yet? Neither of us is lucky." Hou Damao said to Zhang Peng in frustration.
"Oh, yes, where have they all gone? Mao hasn't seen any of them until now. It's probably because we are looking in the wrong direction, that's why it's like this." Zhao Chunming also said a little helplessly.
Zhao Chunming thought that after going up the mountain so many times, it was always easy to find prey, and then Zhang Peng could take him down with him. However, he did not expect that a large part of this was because they had been very lucky before. Everything went smoothly until I went up the mountain.
This is also why Zhang Peng had previously stipulated that you should not hunt Hu Huang when you go up the mountain, and you must respect the mountain god when you catch prey. They are not the older generation of mountaineers, so they are not so particular about it, but they still abide by these most basic rules. .
After all, since these things were passed down from our ancestors, they should be preserved and followed. Some of them may be regarded as dross now, but their existence is reasonable, and the most basic respect and inheritance are still necessary.
Zhang Peng led them up the mountain. Many of them were different from the previous generations who went up the mountain. For example, in the beginning, every time they went up the mountain, they had to burn incense and pray to the mountain god. However, now few people can abide by it seriously. At most, it is People like Zhang Peng and others would go into the water to worship the mountain gods after disemboweling the body.
Therefore, the inheritance of mountain driving in the Northeast has actually declined now. The inheritance of the real mountain driving people of the older generation has also disappeared as the older generation gets older. In fact, this is also caused by the development of the times. side effect.
As for whether there are really so many miraculous things, this is a matter of opinion. Some unexplainable things will be called mountain gods. In fact, this is how it is. Maybe after many years, you won’t feel it. It's amazing.
Therefore, people who drive mountains do not always gain something. Unless this person is the chosen one, otherwise it would be a bit scary to come back with a full load every time.
Hou Damao was a little frustrated when he heard Zhao Chunming's words, but their mentality was still normal, and the failure to find prey did not affect their mentality changes. After all, when they came out of the alkaline field, the two of them discussed whether they could catch the prey. It's the best, if not, it doesn't matter.
"Brother, what's going on? Shall we go back?" Wang Xiaoli asked Zhao Chunming.
"Go back. Even if I continue searching, I probably won't gain much. Let's just leave it at that. Let's talk about it after we go back." Zhao Chunming said to Hou Damao.
After hearing Zhao Chunming's words, Hou Damao also nodded in agreement. After all, it was a bit unreliable to search so aimlessly. He could only go back now and tell Zhang Peng what they found, and then they also wanted to hear about it. His opinion was that he wanted to see if he could go over and capture it.
Then the two of them figured out the direction and walked towards the tunnel. Not long after they left, a cute snow rabbit appeared, probably looking for edible grass roots or something.
As a result, the snow hare had not gone very far before a white figure suddenly jumped out. With a few lightning-like jumps, it crushed the snow hare beneath him, and in just one bite it was He held the snow rabbit in his mouth, and then looked at the direction in which Zhao Chunming and Hou Damao were leaving.
When Zhao Chunming and Hou Damao returned to the cellar, Zhang Peng and Wang Xiaoli hadn't made dinner yet. After all, it was still dawn. They just heated the inside of the cellar and fed rhubarb a piece of soil. Mycin is considered an anti-inflammatory drug!

"Second brother, Chunming and the others are back." Wang Xiaoli said to Zhang Peng inside the cellar.
Wang Xiaoli was outside processing the ingredients for the night. When he saw Zhao Chunming and Hou Damao walking towards the cellar from a distance, he said loudly to Zhang Peng inside the cellar.
Zhao Chunming and Hou Damao waved and said hello from afar. When they approached, Zhao Chunming and Hou Damao said hello to Wang Xiaoli outside.
"Xiaoli, why are you back so early? Where is the second brother?" Zhang Chunming said to Wang Xiaoli outside the cellar.
"Nothing happened today. Second brother is inside. Dahuang was injured when he went out this time."

"What? Dahuang is injured? Are you two okay?"

"We have nothing to do. The second brother is inside. You can go over and take a look." Wang Xiaoli packed up the firewood again and said to them.
"Second brother, how's Dahuang doing?" Zhao Chunming walked into the cellar while Hou Damao followed anxiously.
"It's nothing, don't worry, the rhubarb was just scratched, and there's nothing wrong with the bones." Zhang Peng sat on the kang and said to Zhao Chunming and Hou Damao who came in.
"Oh, I was shocked. I thought the injury was quite serious." Zhao Chunming opened the cellar door, got inside and heard Zhang Peng's words. Then he glanced at Dahuang lying next to him. That's what he said.
"You two didn't get anything from the alkaline field today?"

"Second brother, we came back just to tell you that we found leopard footprints in the alkali field, and judging from the situation at the scene, it is estimated that it is targeting our alkali field." Zhao Chunming faced Zhang Peng who was sitting on the kang. said.
Hearing Zhao Chunming's words, Zhang Peng was also stunned. He had thought that the alkali field would be targeted, so he always emphasized to the two of them to pay attention to their surroundings, but he did not expect that a leopard would be targeted as soon as they were targeted.
"Are you two sure?" Zhang Peng asked them again.
"Of course I'm sure, second brother, don't you know that I was the first to discover what was wrong today." Hou Damao interjected from the side.
"Ah? What do you say?" Zhang Peng asked curiously.
Hou Damao then told the story of the incident, and mainly emphasized that although they went to track it, they did not alert the snake. The leopard must still be nearby.
After Zhang Peng heard Hou Damao's description, he was basically able to judge the situation at the scene and the situation around the alkali field.
"You two are really brave. You even discovered it was a leopard, and you still dared to track it. You are very brave, but it is a bit too risky." Zhang Peng said to Zhao Chunming and Hou Damao with a smile.
"Hey, we didn't dare to get too close. We were searching forward cautiously. This didn't feel right, so we came back. We thought we could go there together." Hou Damao said to Zhang Peng with a smile.
"From your description, it should indeed be a leopard, but this thing is very concealable and elusive. It makes no sound when walking, which makes it difficult for us to find it." Zhang Peng said to the two people in front of him.
