Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 310 Burning the school gun
After Wang An returned home, the two little sisters rushed towards Wang An.

Before she could reach Wang An, Wang Xiaoli shouted: "Big pot, how many house sparrows did you kill?"

Wang An put the dough bag on the ground, squatted down with a smile and stretched out his arms, and the two little sisters threw themselves into Wang An's arms.

After everyone kissed Wang An, Wang An let go of the two little sisters, then took the flour bag and said to the two little sisters with a smile:

"Look, I beat this old man. Let's go. Brother will cook some chickens for you to eat."

When the two little sisters heard this, they followed Wang An with all their might and shouted happily: "I'm burning my bird, haha."

The whole family looked at the two little girls and smiled.

It is noon now, so a fire is burning in the stove pit, and house birds cannot be burned on an open fire, because the house birds will have a smoky smell after being cooked.

However, this problem did not trouble Wang An at all.

Wang An casually took the brazier to the stove pit, then thrust the fire stick into the stove, and pulled the burning wood inside to both sides.

Immediately afterwards, Wang An picked up the shovel next to the stove pit, shoveled it into the stove, and shoveled out a shovel of charcoal fire and the ashes left in the stove after burning the fire in the morning.

Then put the mixture of charcoal fire and ash into the brazier.

After shoveling two shovels of the mixture, Wang An took out a few dead house finches from the dough bag and spread them flat on top of the mixture.

After paving the house sparrows, continue to shovel the carbon ash mixture to cover the house sparrows. After shoveling, put a few house sparrows on the flat surface.

In this way, Wang An buried a total of 30 house finches in the brazier.

In fact, Wang An wanted to bury all the house birds, but the brazier was full.

Wang An looked at the brazier full of charcoal in front of him, and while he was waiting for the house bird to be cooked, his thoughts began to wander.

In the Northeast of this era, every household had a brazier. This brazier was actually a clay pot, and it was a very thick clay pot. It was made of rice soup and mud mixed with pig hair.

A brazier is actually equivalent to a stove. It is usually used to hold charcoal fire and put it on the kang, which will make the room warmer.

Of course, the function of this brazier is also the boss. When you are hungry, you can burn potatoes or sweet potatoes, bury them in it and wait for them to be eaten.

Either heat up a steamed bun or a big pancake or something, and just bury it inside. When you eat it, the whole outside of the steamed bun or big pancake is covered with hu gaba.

And this layer of hu gaba is the real essence. Just break it off and put it in your mouth.

Aiya, I go! The taste is really out of this world, it is simply unparalleled, a serious delicacy in the world.

In addition to these, burning pecans or hazelnuts in a brazier is also very good, and the house is filled with fragrance.

There are also roasted hawthorns or garlic. In fact, many people don’t know that hawthorns can be cooked and eaten.

The taste of cooked hawthorn is really just two words to describe it, perfect!
Seeing that Wang An had buried the house sparrow, the two little sisters came over and squatted by the brazier. Their eyes were shining and they stared at the brazier. They felt as eager as if they wanted to eat the brazier alive. Average.

You must know that although house finches are delicious, they are actually not very easy to catch in this day and age.

At this time, there was no sticky net specifically used to catch birds, as would be the case a few years later, and there was no good method other than shooting with a slingshot.

Even if you use a basket buckle or a clip, the harvest will be very little, because the house sparrow is not stupid, and it is also very lively.

Wang An did know another way to catch house finches, but he lacked one of the most critical household appliances, which was a flashlight.

At night, use a flashlight to shine on the eaves, haystacks or wood piles. As long as there are house sparrows, they will basically be unable to escape.

If it weren't for the industrial coupons needed to buy a flashlight, Wang An would have brought the flashlight home early, and he wouldn't have had to carry a lantern when he went outside in the dark.

One minute later, the younger sister Wang Xiaoli asked: "Big pot, is the house bird ready?"

Wang An was interrupted from his thoughts and smiled helplessly: "We just buried it, how could it be so fast?"

Wang Xiaoli said "hmm" without raising her head, and continued to stare at the brazier.

After almost another minute, Wang Xiaomei asked: "Brother, is this place ready?"

Wang An looked at his watch and replied casually: "It will be cooked in another 10 minutes."

Normally, this kind of charcoal grilled chicken will be cooked in about 15 minutes. It's just that children have no concept of time, so less than a minute later, Wang Xiaoli asked again.

After Wang An finished answering, Wang Xiaomei asked again.
In short, these two little girls seemed to have agreed upon each other. They would ask each other twice after you asked them.

Wang An could only answer the two sisters patiently over and over again.

Finally, under the gaze of Wang An and his two sisters, a total of six eyes, the bird was ripe.

Wang An finally didn't have to say again and again how long he was waiting.

Wang An placed the brazier upside down directly at the door of the stove pit, and then used a fire stick to pull the burnt house bird out of the charcoal fire.

Then he gently smashed the house sparrows one by one with a fire stick, and then began the work of feeding the two sisters.

The cooked house sparrow is very easy to peel, and when you pull it, you will get a large piece of black skin.

Moreover, after the house bird is cooked, the mouth is basically gone, so the head can be eaten, and even the bones can be chewed together, which is very delicious.

As for the internal organs, except for the intestines and gizzards, the rest can be eaten. The gall is too small and it is difficult to distinguish it after being cooked. If you throw it into your mouth with the liver, there is basically no bitter taste.

Wang An peeled off one bird after another. Although the two little girls were very greedy, they were very sensible. After feeding Wang Dazhu and his wife and his eldest brother and sister-in-law each one, they put the bird meat into their mouths.

After chewing, the two little girls instantly showed happy smiles.

Wang An looked at the expressions on his two younger sisters, and suddenly thought of the day after he was reborn, his two younger sisters had the same expressions when they were eating pork.

House sparrows are delicious, but they are too small.

Therefore, after devouring all the cooked house birds, the two little girls were still unsatisfied.

In fact, Wang An and Wang Dazhu each only ate one.

In other words, the two little girls each ate 13 house finches.

But let alone being full, the two little girls didn't eat enough.

Just when Wang An wanted to continue burning the house birds, Liu Guilan said: "Don't burn those house birds, wait until Xiaoyi comes back from school before eating them."

Wang An was stunned when he heard this. He was really bad at being an elder brother, and he actually forgot about his younger brother.

This is happening day by day!
After lunch, Wang An, who had nothing to do, made two more slingshots, and then maintained all the guns at home.

But for the 56 and a half guns, all parts of the gun need to be disassembled during maintenance.

Therefore, after maintenance, the front sight must be recalibrated, otherwise there will be problems with inaccurate shooting.

So, Wang An carried three 3 and a half, a slingshot and a large handful of clay marbles, and walked towards the surroundings of the village.

Before going out, Wang An conveniently packed another flour bag.

Because the school gun must be fired. If he fired in the village, Wang An was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.

When he arrived about 2 miles away from the village, Wang An stopped, because the normal propagation distance of gunshots was about 400 meters.

2 miles of land, a full thousand meters, the sound of gunshots would definitely not reach the village.

Calibrating the gun is a very simple matter for Wang An. It is nothing more than making the gun hit three points and one line.

Aim at a point on the big tree, aim and fire once, and then adjust it bit by bit. As long as you reach three points and one line, the gun will be calibrated.

After calibrating the gun, Wang An crossed the gun on his back and started shooting the slingshot again.

But it's much better here than near the countryside, because there are squirrels here.

So after a "whoosh", "whoosh" and "whoosh" sound, Wang An not only killed many house sparrows, but also killed four squirrels.

The happy Wang An was continuing to look for small animals on the tree, and suddenly Wang An smelled a foul smell.

　Sorry, sorry, just updated.
