Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 134 Apply eye drops Xu Laowen: In my life...

That night, Xu Chunlin was in a very good mood, humming a crescent moon ditty, squatting on the kang and covering himself with the quilt.

Liu Lizhen didn't say anything to dispel his good mood. She didn't object much to the fact that Xu Chunlin and the others were going to go to the mountains to fight for siege. She was just afraid that they would take care of the big orphan pig. After getting the guarantee from the three of them, she felt relieved. .

Usually, before Xu Ning learns well, whether the family can eat meat depends on Xu Chunlin and the others.

Besides, Liu Lizhen knew very well that running around in the mountains to fight sieges was easy to get addicted. If Xu Laowen was not allowed to fight sieges, how could she let him stay at home and act like a monster?

Hurry up and wander around in the mountains. Even if you don't catch anything, you can rest for a few days.

The next day, it was dark outside, and Xu Laowen got up at around five o'clock. He put on the cotton-padded jacket and trousers he wore for hiking, carried a 16-year-old pout on his back, and went out without washing his face.

After meeting up with Wang Erli and Liu Daming, they walked towards the 31st Lengchang area in the southeast. When they arrived under a large rock that resembled a toad's head, the three of them collected firewood and cooked a meal.

At the same time, on the Kang table in the east room of Old Xu's house, a group of people were eating around the Kang table.

Xu Ning didn't find any trace of Mr. Xu before he entered the house. At first he thought he had gone to the latrine to do some work, but before dinner started, he still didn't look at anyone, so he asked his mother.

Mom raised her head and pointed to the place where the gun was hung on the wall, and then went to the outhouse to serve food.

Xu Ning was a little confused. When he entered the house, he didn't even notice the shotgun hanging on the wall. He suddenly realized it after his mother reminded him.

"My dad went for a walk in the mountains, why did he sneak away behind my back?"

Liu Lizhen put pickles in her mouth and said, "I'm afraid you'll take his job. He told your uncle a long time ago that he didn't want to tell you about any animals he found on the mountain, haha."

Xu Ning blinked, "Is this Gaha? Can I not let him go for a walk in the mountain? Then my second uncle and old uncle will go too."

"Well, I left at five o'clock in the morning."

"Hey, this guy is guarding me like a thief." Xu Ning pouted, feeling a little unhappy.

"Then what are you thinking about? He hasn't gone to the mountain since you put him on the mountain to hunt animals. Just go."

Xu Ning grinned and said, "I'm thinking about it, maybe the three of them went to take care of the big orphan pig. Didn't Feng'er tell me? It costs 50 yuan to shell the big orphan pig."

"He dares!" Liu Lizhen said solemnly: "If he dares to take care of the big orphan pig, I will let him sleep on the street and freeze him to death!"

Seeing her mother acting so cruelly, Xu Ning felt happy in her heart.

Xu Long glanced at his own brother and thought: Our father is living outside in the open air, so it would be a good idea for you to stay at home and apply eye drops for him.

Wang Shujuan tilted her head and asked, "Er Ning, are you feeling better now?"

"Okay, nothing's wrong, I was really cold last night."

"Are the insoles damp? Can my sister-in-law give you two more pairs of insoles?"

When Xu Long heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "Why don't you want to buy me two pairs? My feet are so cold..."

Liu Lizhen put down the bowl and chopsticks and said, "Aren't you conscience-stricken by saying this? How many pairs of insoles have Juan'er given you? Your feet are always sweaty. Water will come out when you take off your shoes. You still have the nerve to ask for insoles. Put some urala in them." That’s enough.”

Xu Long snorted and muttered: "Hey, Xu Erning will make you very happy after he learns well. He is always looking after him, and I have no status at all. I am just a transparent person in this family. ah."

Liu Lizhen raised her hand and patted his back. Just as she was about to speak, Xu Feng suddenly interrupted: "Brother, before my second brother learned well, you had no status. Our father asked you to chase the dog, but you didn't even dare to chase the chicken. "

"Get out of here, kid, if anything happens, you'll get there, little kid!" Xu Long shouted with eyes wide open.

Xu Feng sat next to Wang Shujuan with a flat mouth, "Sister-in-law, look at my elder brother and scold me."

"If you don't say a few words, what's missing from you? I'll give you cigarettes if you ask for cigarettes, wine for wine if you ask for them, and I'll miss you a mouthful of food?"

As soon as Xu Long put the two pieces down, they were hanging on the edge of the kang. He held the edge of the kang with both hands and rushed down, stepping into the shoe shell.

Liu Lizhen also went to the ground to pull on her shoes and said: "Usually when I'm beating Er Ning, don't you just stay aside and add fuel to the fire? I see you smiling happier than anyone else, even Feng'er is crying and begging me not to beat you. Why are you grinning?"

Xu Long's expression froze and he said, "Isn't it because I saw him angry with you, so I am angry too..."

"You three guys don't have any fun. Your little brother has just learned it for more than half a month. Don't discourage him, okay?"

Liu Lizhen and Wang Shujuan picked up the bowls and chopsticks, while Xu Ning squatted on the edge of the kang and patted Xu Long on the shoulder with a smile.

"Brother, do you know why my sister-in-law and mother are looking at me?"

Xu Long frowned and tilted his head and asked, "Why?"

"Because I have fifty yuan in my pocket, haha..."

"Oh shit, you...don't talk nonsense!"

Xu Long hurriedly grabbed Xu Ning who was about to run away, and said in a low voice: "Brother is wrong, okay? Do you still want to use these fifty yuan to hold me for the rest of my life?"

"Then I can't take Sanyue from you two?"

"Oh my god...why are you so damaged!"

Xu Ning smiled and said: "There is a saying that goes well. If a good person does something wrong, he will be drowned in spitting stars. If a bad person does a good thing, he will be praised as a model like Lei Feng!"

Xu Long gritted his molars and said, "Then I will also be a victim in the future!"

Xu Ning chuckled: "You? You can't do it. You are already a good person in the eyes of our parents, and I am the most useless person in Qing'an, so others can accept whatever I do. Besides, you are incompetent. Have you ever harmed me? Haha..."

"Fuck, you are so shameless."

"Thank you for the compliment!"

"..."

After Xu Feng and Xu Long left, Xu Ning stayed in the house and played with the dog. Since Xu Laowei had carried the shotgun away, he didn't think about going for a walk up the mountain. Although he had already trapped the roe deer, it had only been a long time and we had to wait two days to find out.

Wang Hu and Li Fuqiang came to see him almost every day. In addition to helping with the work, they also planned to pick out some female leopards and dig out some greyhound pups from the grain bin.

Xu Ning asked Wang Hu to go to the lower room of his house and find the two jujube tree branches. Then the three of them sat in the east wing and used files and saws to make two slingshots.

"Brother, how can I fix this without a rubber band? The holster is too loose and has no strength at all."

Wang Hu collected the saw, file and wood chips on the ground, raised his head and said, "Second brother, how about I go to the store and ask? Maybe someone can have the rubber tube for the valve core."

"Okay, you can go there and we can pay for it."

"OK."

After Wang Hu finished sweeping the floor, he put the broom stick against the wall, then walked out of the Xu family courtyard and headed towards the small shop.

More than twenty minutes later, Wang Hu ran back with a grin on his face, holding four rubber tubes in his hands.

Li Fuqiang smiled when he saw it and asked, "Where did you get it?"

Wang Hu put the rubber tube on the edge of the kang and said: "I went to the store and asked around but couldn't find any. Before I came back, I met Uncle Du and asked me. I said my second brother wanted to make a slingshot and needed some valves. Core rubber tubes, and then Uncle Du said that Brother Manzhi made a bundle last time and asked me to go with him to his house to get four tubes."

Li Fuqiang turned to look at his brother and said with a smile: "Look at how useful this reputation is."

"Haha...then you have to take care of things!"

It wasn't until noon that the three of them completed the two slingshots. Xu Ning tried them out in the hospital. Although the pulling force was a bit light, they were quite powerful at hitting things within 40 meters.

At this time, Xu Chunlin, Wang Erli and Liu Daming, who had set out to the mountain to fight the siege before dawn, were complaining endlessly.

Just now, the three of them were looking for the trace of a wild boar, and finally got a good look at it. They groped along the new trail of the wild boar, and when they were climbing over a bridge, they saw an old sow and two yellow heads. Maozi.

They did not act rashly, but continued to move forward for sixty or seventy meters before raising their guns.

However, when Xu Chunlin and Wang Erli were about to fire their guns, the barking of hunting dogs was heard in the distance. This made the three of them stunned, and they saw that the wild boar below had been frightened and was running towards the bottom of the mountain.

But the barking of the dog gradually faded away, and only then did the three of them realize that they had shot someone else through the chest!

Since the target of others is not the three pigs in front of them, they must continue to chase them.

The three of them hurriedly ran to the bottom of the mountain, not feeling unhappy at all, because it was normal to hunt animals in the mountains and stab them through their chests, so there was nothing to complain about.

However, the three of them chased for more than two miles and caught up with the three wild boars again. When Xu and Wang were about to hand over their guns, they heard another gunshot in the distance!

bang...

After hearing the sound, the three wild boars jumped out and kicked up a cloud of snow mist from the snow that had just fallen two days ago!

"What kind of nonsense is this?" Liu Daming cursed.

Xu Chunlin frowned and said in a deep voice: "We are already here, hurry up and chase after him!"

Then the three of them started chasing the wild boar.

When they ran to a short, flat mountain col facing the sun, the three of them held the wave cap and panted to catch their breath.

The three of them were already older, and after running for four or five miles through the complex terrain and dense snow on the mountain, they were all out of breath.

Xu Chunlin looked at the surroundings and glared with a straight face. He roared in the direction of the gunshot: "What a fool, who fired the gun? What a waste of time!"

The terrain in front of us is the low shrubs that mountain runners are least willing to walk through. There are shrubs such as the old thorn bud pole, the tiger stick, the chicken tree sliver, and the acanthopanax pole.

Liu Daming rolled his eyes and cursed: "You are so stupid and fucked, you are so damn hateful!"

Wang Erli narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother, let's keep chasing. Maybe we can catch up."

Xu Chunlin looked back at the two of them and said with a dark face: "Then let's chase him. He's already looking at the shadows. How can he let them run away? If old Biden fires another gun, I'll go and look for him!"

Wang Erli urged: "Brother, others may not be happy. Let's go another sixty or seventy meters and we will enter the red pine forest. Let's go quickly."

"Well, on this day, anything can happen." Xu Laowen muttered.

Liu Daming said: "Brother-in-law, we just have a bad face today, otherwise we should go back."

"Is that okay? It's only noon, you're scared."

After that, Xu and Wang got into the bushes, and Liu Daming had no choice but to follow closely.

He knew very well that his brother-in-law and second brother were suffocated from going to work every day, and their eyes would go straight when they looked at the animals. If they couldn't hit the animals today, it would definitely be bad to go back at night, so it was better to just follow them.

However, the three of them passed through the bushes and entered the red pine forest and chased for three or four miles without even looking at the pig shadow.

General Xu and Wang were so angry that they broke their guard on the spot and cursed. However, all three of them were hungry, so Liu Daming could only pick up some branches to make a hot meal.

Xu Laowen ate lunch angrily. He put down his lunch box and said helplessly: "I finally asked for a leave. What the hell... eh, my life has been so rough. I'm so angry."

Wang Erli took two mouthfuls of rice fiercely and said: "Things like piercing the chest don't happen twice a year. Brother, let's memorize the idea. If it doesn't work, just go home. It's almost two o'clock." "

Liu Daming nodded: "Yeah, we have run out for more than ten miles, and it will take a lot of time to go back."

Xu Chunlin sighed: "Then let's go back."

Immediately, the three of them packed their lunch boxes and walked back.

This time, in order to bypass the bushes, they deliberately walked a few more steps and made a circle from the other end of Shizuigou.

This Shizuigou is just below the 16th Lengchang, but the route Xu Chunlin and the others took was straight to the 19th Lengchang, because passing through the 19th Lengchang can lead to the back of the Qing'an Forest Farm, and then from the hill behind the forest farm It's easier to go home.
