Zhu Tian: The Fiery Years Begin with Taking Qin Huairu as a Concubine

Chapter 65 Shack
The sisters-in-law standing nearby had already noticed that Zhang Kaiwu was fond of Huairu.

Qin Huairu also has a good impression of Zhang Kaiwu.

I hugged her waist!
Since Qin's mother has made up her mind, the matter is almost done.

Qin's mother had really thought it through. Qin Huairu wouldn't be allowed to throw a tantrum!

Send it in bundles!

The young lady of the Zhou family and them are all relatives from now on!

…………

Zhang Kaiwu rode his bicycle towards Daxishan, his eyes still keenly observing his surroundings.

His outfit and bicycle are far beyond the standard of a black gun shooter.

Be careful and cautious!

The reason why I didn't put the gun into my space is to warn others not to think about stealing the chicken...

I have a gun!

After passing Qinjiatun, there is a Liangjia Village and then you enter the Daxishan Mountains.

The conditions in Liangjia Village are better than those in Qinjiatun now because their villagers are semi-mountain dwellers.

It is close to the mountains, so although there is little land and the harvest is little, the tax paid is also little.

You can always find something to keep you alive in the mountains, such as kudzu root, mushrooms, yam eggs, stone eggs, pine roots...

There are some places with puddles and fertile land, and you can also create some wild land.

Although we cannot grow grains, we can grow other crops, such as sweet potatoes, which can still yield some harvest.

There are also mountain dwellers in the mountains, the so-called bandits.

A nomadic household who does not pay rent or taxes and is not registered as a resident.

The township office in the countryside and the patrol office in the city of Peking.

Those cases that cannot be solved, do not want to be solved, and cannot be solved are all thrown to the bandits to be closed.

…………

Old Zhang and his son knew a few hunters in Liangjia Village and had a good relationship with them.

However, Zhang Kaiwu had no intention of looking for them to fight the tiger.

Firstly, because of interests, Zhang Kaiwu did not want to go into the mountains to test the good and evil of human nature.

Knowing the exact location of the tiger is really attractive to hunters.

Second, with so many people around, it may not be as convenient as if he were alone, and something bad might even happen.

He has the storage space to back him up, so everything he does is easy.

Because he often came here to hunt, he was familiar with the route and bypassed Liangjia Village without entering it.

Zhang Kaiwu found a familiar path, put away his bicycle and went into the mountain.

He even put away the Hanyang-made weapons and took only an axe and a backpack.

…………

The woods a little outside the mountain were empty and Zhang Kaiwu was walking very fast.

Nowadays, firewood is used for burning in the village. When villagers have some free time during the slack season, they go up to the mountains to collect firewood.

It’s not like the mountains in the future, which are full of trees and vines.

Many of the vines are similar to kudzu roots, which never grow big and have long been pulled up.

The underground tubers were dug up to satisfy hunger, and the vines were burned as firewood.

All the thatch was pulled back to build the house.

The mountain is very clean now, without even any low branches.

Big trees cannot be cut down, as they all have owners and are the property of former nobles.

Just like the back mountain of Qinjiatun, villagers can collect some firewood there.

It's all because of TOEFL. Now that the Qing Dynasty has fallen, no one is practicing horse riding and archery, so we can collect firewood.

Otherwise, haha!

Qin Huairu never grows up!

He had been driven out of the village a long time ago.

With the original owner's memories, Zhang Kaiwu walked towards the west with familiarity, but the journey was still very long.

We hurried all the way, and after three hours, there were more weeds and small tree branches on the road.

The sign of entering the no-man's land...

…………

Another hour passed.

They were deep in the mountains, and after climbing over a small hill, they arrived at the hunting hut that they used to use. Zhang Kaiwu looked at the place silently. It was a thatched hut made of two tree branches, covered with thatch to protect against rain.

There was thatch underneath for sleeping!
In front of the shed there is a fire pit surrounded by gravel, with a clay pot on top, which the father and son use to cook cornmeal to survive.

It is here that Lao Zhang and his son go hunting, with trapping as their main activity and hunting as their auxiliary activity.

Every hunter has an activity area, and other hunters will not go there easily.

Every hunter has a shack, which usually doesn't go too far into the mountains.

…………

Because the mountains are too dangerous.

Not only are there ferocious beasts, but there are also poisonous insects and snakes. Don't even think about getting out if you only have minor injuries.

If someone is alone and even catches a cold at night, he will most likely die.

In the past, the father and son would light a bonfire in this shack and take turns to rest and keep watch.

It's early June, and that's when the poison goes crazy.

Not for a woman's sake.

It is not a good time to hunt until after the first snowfall when poisonous insects have hidden themselves away.

At this time of year, most hunters would not go into the mountains to hunt big animals. At most, they would set a trap on the edge.

If there are dates or not, you can hit them three times...

…………

The place where the father and son fought the tiger last time, or the place where his father was taken away, is still two or three hours away!

The result of taking a risk.

His father was eaten by a tiger.

Zhang Kaiwu has also been replaced by a new Zhang Kaiwu.

He started preparing to fight the tiger on the flat ground in front of the shack.

He took out an axe and looked for some small trees as thick as arms nearby.

Slowly cut down the small trees and trimmed them into large wooden sticks.

Even the chopped tree branches were kept and used as firewood later. Life in the countryside is so difficult!

Nothing can be missing.

By noon, we had something to eat, then continued chopping trees and returned to the shack.

With the help of the storage space, the tree sticks were quickly gathered.

I also cut some vines to make ropes.

He cut some notches in the wood sticks and used them to tie them together to make a new, square, sturdy shed.

Like a small house.

Three meters by three meters by three meters, the sticks were tied so densely that even tiger melon seeds couldn’t get in.

A shelter was built without any doors, but the muzzle of the gun could be extended out to fire in all directions.

This was the simplest solution he could think of, the tiger was coming.

Or when you are going to sleep, just put this shelter over your head.

I brought a house here.

Hiding inside to rest, taking out the Hanyang-made gun to shoot from behind...

What kind of tiger is invincible?!

…………

After the shelter was completed, he pushed it hard to see how strong it was.

He put it back into the storage space and tried it out with force.

Hehehe!
He raised his hand and the cover appeared, and he entered the wooden house.

Hiding in the new house, Zhang Kaiwu took out the Hanyang rifle, picked up the precious bullets and began to practice shooting.

At the same time, you should also be familiar with the shooting environment in the bunker.

His previous marksmanship was level one: 80/100.

The basic shooting skills were simple, and he could practice them very quickly after mastering the techniques of brushing up on the skills.

After firing twenty bullets seriously, your shooting skills will improve.

It became level 0 500/.

A burst of experience in using guns came to my mind, and I felt that I had reached the level of a qualified soldier.
