Return to 1983: Starting from hunting in the mountains

Chapter 53 Wild Boar Ridge

In a hurry, Li Laosan raised his gun and started shooting, hoping to kill the wild leopard before it came to him.

However, the surrounding forest was dense, and the wild leopard was not only very close, but also very fast, covering a distance of several meters in one jump.
  Even an experienced hunter like Li Laosan has no time to aim, not to mention the shotgun with an old sleeve.
  After firing one bullet and loading the gun, Li Laosan fired two shots and rushed to reload the bullet without even seeing it. At this time, the wild leopard was already in front of him. Li Laosan decisively hit it with his gun and then jumped to the side. , Run desperately.

But when he was able to run past a wild leopard in the mountains, he was knocked down by the wild leopard within a moment and clawed at him. Fortunately, several dogs arrived soon after! But Li Laosan also fainted, and when he woke up he was lying on the bed of Li Fu's family.

"Hunting is like this. Even the most experienced hunter cannot fully predict what surprises will happen. For example, you don't know where a wild leopard will appear from."

Hunting requires not only detailed judgment, but also a little bit of accumulated experience, and caution is essential. Li Laosan was careless this time.

And of course luck.

But for Li Laosan, it was a blessing in misfortune.

At least, he's still alive.

If Lu Jiansheng hadn't thought he'd encountered a herd of wild boars and happened to see that scene, he wouldn't have been able to save him.

Li Laosan looked at Lu Jiansheng in surprise. Who didn't know the dangers in the mountains? He didn't dare to go hunting alone in the mountains without any experience. The young man in front of him was very timid.

"Hey! I was still joking before. Li Demin from the south of the village has shot so many big wild boars in his life, but he didn't expect that he was picked by a small boar in the end. As a result, I was almost fucked by a leopard at the entrance of the village. Hey! Old." Li Laosan looked sad.

Li Laosan saw that of course he had no intention of harming Lu Jiansheng. Although the distance to Yeboar Ridge was far, there were enough manpower! Not to mention encountering leopards, even encountering tigers can be done. It is much safer than being alone.

"I'm alone. I just went hunting in the mountains not long ago." Lu Jiansheng replied with a smile.

Li Laosan said slowly.

"There are relatively few wild boars outside Baichang Mountain, but I do know where there are many wild boars. There is a wild boar ridge in the mountain. Where there are more wild boars, it only takes a day or two to go back and forth. Even those of us who have been in the mountains all year round No one who hunts dares to go that far.

"Besides, it is easy to kill a wild boar, but it is difficult to transport it back from such a long distance. Usually our village organizes some hunters to go together so that we can have someone to look after us."

"Not long?"

"Little brother, you are also a hunter, right? Why haven't I seen you before?" Li Laosan asked.

"Little brother, you have only been hunting for a short time, and you are quite capable of hunting down a wild boar."

"Well, I usually hunt outside. I only hunted one wild boar these days. I don't usually encounter it. I don't know where there are more wild boars in the mountains." Lu Jiansheng asked.

Lu Jiansheng was very moved when he heard this. You must know that the mountains are very big. The ancestors of these hunters often hunted in the mountains. They can see many places clearly. If you hunt with them, you can also understand some conditions.

"Why, little brother, do you want to go too? In more than half a month, the village will organize manpower. If you want to go, you can go with us."

It's just troublesome to transport it back, because it's easy to hunt a wild boar, but it often takes two or three people to transport it back, and the distance is long, so the village usually only organizes it every two or three months, and the meat hunted is divided equally.

Lu Jiansheng nodded. This Li Demin should be the old Li from the backing village that Liu Dahai mentioned. These days, almost everyone in the village has the same surname. However, Lu Jiansheng knew the joke Li Laosan said. In fact, it was more of a sigh.

Lu Jiansheng nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"I'm injured and can't go this time. When the time comes, you can go with Dazhu so that I can be taken care of."

Lu Jiansheng was chatting with Li Laosan. He got a lot of useful information from Li Laosan, such as where tigers are likely to appear in the mountains, etc. Li Laosan also told him everything. The rice was ready quickly. Jiang Xiuhua specially made the dumplings and brought a large bowl of soup dumplings to Lu Jiansheng and Li Laosan. The bowl handed to Lu Jiansheng was obviously much more than that of Li Laosan.

"There's not much food at home, so I made some dumplings and fried two wild vegetables. Eat them while they're hot." Jiang Xiuhua greeted warmly.

He also served two wild vegetables, both of which Lu Jiansheng had picked in the mountains the day before yesterday, and they were the most common ones in the mountains.

Lu Jiansheng used chopsticks to open a dumpling. It was stuffed with wild vegetables and pork. This was using the pork he had just delivered.

Lu Jiansheng was not polite and swallowed a dumpling in one gulp, then put some of the two wild vegetables in his mouth.

It's not as delicious as dumplings. This sentence still makes sense.

Especially the dumplings stuffed with wild vegetables,
  The meat is tender and refreshing, and the wild vegetables are fragrant.

It must be said that Jiang Xiuhua is very good at cooking. People in the mountains are usually short of food, so they can only make up for it from wild vegetables as much as possible. This is probably why, despite the poverty of the family, the dishes prepared with wild vegetables are absolutely outstanding.

"It's delicious." Lu Jiansheng praised sincerely.

"Eat more if you like it." Jiang Xiuhua said with a smile.

"Okay..." Lu Jiansheng followed up and took another bite, but when he saw Jiang Xiuhua, he stood watching from the side and couldn't help asking: "Auntie, why don't you eat? Brother Zhuzhu is here too, let's go together."

Jiang Xiuhua was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "You eat first, Zhuzi and I have already eaten."

The voice has not fallen,

At this time, Lu Jiansheng didn't know that Jiang Xiuhua wanted to leave delicious food to the guests. This was the case in this era, and Lu Jiansheng didn't say anything.

After eating, Lu Jiansheng asked Li Laosan again about Pizi. However, what disappoints Lu Jiansheng is that Li Laosan only has some freshly hunted rabbit skins at home, because every one or two months, people from outside the mountain come back to collect the mountain products, and the people who just collected the mountain products in the past two days leave.

Li Laosan was injured and needed to rest. After Lu Jiansheng had a meal, he chatted with Li Dazhu for a few words and then hurried home.
  He had just bought two old hens. Although he had a chicken coop at home, it was in tatters because it had been out of use for a long time. There were still several big holes that needed to be filled with mud.

Then Lu Jiansheng dug a small pit not far from the door, then added some water and rotten grass in it, and mixed it at the same time.

The two little guys wanted to come over to help, but he drove them away. Then he filled the holes in the chicken pen with live soil, and added rocks when they encountered larger holes.

After a while, a chicken pen that seemed to be intact was completed. At this time, the little guy was teasing Dabao and Dabao curiously, and the chicken legs of these two old hens had been tied up by Bai Ruoxi.

At this moment, Tangtang and Xixi Nai were suddenly heard shouting cutely: "Mom, Dad, the eggs are being laid."

Lu Jiansheng walked in and took a look. It turned out that the hen was laying eggs. Unexpectedly, the eggs were laid not long after he bought them. It happened to be another extra meal tonight.

The two little guys were very excited. It was the first time they saw a hen laying eggs, and they had eggs to eat.

"Wow! Tangtang can eat eggs tonight."

"Xixi also likes to eat eggs."

Then, under the reluctant eyes of the little ones, Lu Jiansheng put the hen into the chicken coop, and then tied it to the door of the chicken coop with a long hemp rope, because it needed to be tied up and fed for a few days until it became familiar with it. new home so that the chickens won’t run around.
