Living in the mountains and forests as hunters

Chapter 41

There were not four visitors, but six. In addition to An Dalang, there were father and son from the Lin family, brothers from the Wu family, and the last one was Orion from the Qin family village, who was also Aunt Lin's brother. These six people met the wolf in the south. Fight all night and harvest 35 wolves.

"Speaking of which, it's really mysterious this time. I don't know what's wrong with this wolf. It has increased so much all of a sudden. Fortunately, we are unambiguous. It is estimated that it has dropped by [-]% all of a sudden. It can be regarded as letting them know that they are afraid, otherwise let this wolf continue. If you continue to toss, I'm afraid that no one nearby will not be spared."

Uncle Lin sat at the dinner table, swallowed the last bite of steamed buns in his hand, and drank the seaweed egg drop soup that Zhao Yiyi had just made. White flour steamed buns are delicious, and finally came alive, one night!This is not bragging, he felt that he was so hungry that he could eat a cow.

Zhao Yiyi on the one side is still cooking. The soup just served, as well as the venison and winter bamboo shoots, are only a blink of an eye, and most of them are gone. The big and small plus Zhao Dahu and seven men, the taste is not ordinary It's fierce, so I can only continue to make it. Fortunately, there are many things at home. A plate of fried yam with bamboo shoots and mushrooms is out of the pot again. There is still wolf meat stewed with wine in the pot on the side. I think this is the real meat. People's favorite too!There is also the radish on the side, she directly made a stir-fried shredded radish, at least it clears the stomach, and it will make people tired if it is all meat!Two meat and two vegetables, plus a big pot of soup, and unlimited steamed buns, this kind of meal should satisfy everyone.If it doesn't work, she can only serve pickled vegetables, pickled vegetables and winter bamboo shoots can also be mixed with vegetables, right!The speed is still fast, and it can catch up with the speed of their stomachs.

With food in their stomachs, the hunters, who felt comfortable again, slowed down their eating speed and finally had a mouth to speak. Putting something still stewed on the table, I smashed my mouth, thinking about how big my stomach would be, and said:

"Uncle Lin, speaking of which, there were so many wolves this time! I remember that there were only about thirty wolves in this mountain. Where did the extra wolves come from?"

"How do I know that?"

"I know something about that."

While eating four steamed buns, the overwhelmed Qin family man raised his head. He looked about 40 to [-] years old, his face was full of wind and frost, and the expression on his face looked like a shrewd person, his eyes were shining!The thick slap waved in front of everyone, acting like a storyteller:
"A few days ago, I heard that during the snow disaster, the mountains in the east seemed to have an avalanche, and a lot of rocks fell down from the mountains, crushing many animals to death. If no one picked them up, relying on this I can earn a lot of money. Later, I heard that some animals changed their sites. People in Xiaohu Village in the east saw a herd of goats on the side of the mountain and went to Sandao Mountain. I wondered if this wolf also thought about it. After changing the site, I went to Langshan. After all, everyone knows that the wolves are divided into groups when they grow up. I guess the wolves on this wolf mountain and those in the deep mountain are originally a group, so I found them here. There are so many, this is why this happened, the wolves probably want to find a new territory!"

"It's possible, but why are you heading south here? Why don't you go north? There are quite a lot of territory in Tianyingjian, and it's not very popular."

"You're a fool, don't you think, even this ten-year-old doll can hunt a deer, what does it mean? The deer has passed by us, and the wolf always chases the prey!"

"That's true! Uncle Qin, if you put it this way, won't the wolf come back soon after returning to the deep mountains this time?"

"Not necessarily! I guess it's just these days that are chaotic. To be honest, there are more prey in this deep mountain than here. They are not willing to do so. I guess after this winter, after the hibernating ones in the deep mountain come out, the wolf will definitely They went back. That is their territory. I heard from the older generation that there are hundreds of wolves there, divided into three or four packs. This number has not changed for nearly a hundred years. We can’t afford it here. .”

Sitting and eating at the side, Zhao Dahu, who listened to the old hunter with his ears upright, couldn't help asking when he heard this:
"How come the numbers haven't changed? This is too strange, not many wolves are beaten!"

"You son of a bitch, what do you know? This wolf also has natural enemies. Why don't Orion hunt many, but tigers and leopards! This is their big enemy, let alone this wolf, and the tribes also like to divide. Competitors fight fiercely, and in this way, plus we step in from time to time, the number can't go up."

Every old hunter is an animal expert, and the reason he can tell is simple and true, Zhao Dahu nods again and again, even though Uncle Qin looks a little out of tune, he is still a talent.Uncle Lin next to him saw that his uncle was about to start talking again, and immediately interrupted. This person is just like this, and a hunter likes to imitate storytellers. What is this?

"This time you are also clever. You know that you lit a cigarette. I saw it yesterday. After listening to the howling of wolves all night, plus your smoke, there is nothing else you don't know. No, I caught up with it. "

While speaking, Uncle Lin looked seriously at Zhao Yiyi and Zhao Dahu who met for the first time, and said to An Dalang:
"An family boy, you have married a good wife! She looks like our Orion family, you are blessed!"

An Dalang, who said this, laughed honestly, touched his head, and explained to Zhao Yiyi and Zhao Dahu:
"Yesterday afternoon, Uncle Lin saw your smoke and knew it was wrong, so he hurried to the brothers of the Wu family, where he met me and Dabao, and he also dragged Uncle Qin, who was hunting in the mountains, with him. Back in the rush, I just wanted to come here earlier, ran back and forth for two hours without a break, brought us all the way here at night, didn't even eat dinner, everyone was hungry for six or seven hours!"

After hearing this, without further ado, Zhao Yiyi immediately gave a big gift to everyone present. This is because they saved her and Duhu's lives!
"Thank you, uncles and elder brothers. If you take a step forward, I'm afraid our siblings won't even be able to find their bones. I, I don't even know how to repay this life-saving grace."

The few people who were upbeat just now, saw Zhao Yiyi's salute, but they were at a loss for a moment. It was Uncle Qin who could talk, so he waved his hand and said:

"How can you say that! They are all begging for life on the mountain, how can we survive without helping each other! If we want to say thank you, we should also thank An Dalang. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have a hot kang to sleep in this winter. , I don’t know how many elderly and children have been saved this year! How can this be counted, right? Also, there are no mushrooms to eat, let alone broken rice! Even those quilts and cotton jackets also help us poor people save It’s a lot of money, and people like me from outside the city are all soaked up. He can have good things and think about everyone. , we can also use it in the future, like the Lin family and the Wu family, they are all the same as you, there is only one family in this mountain, if there is such a big event like this time, if someone needs help, click on it One, wouldn't it be much more convenient?"

When he said this, the others nodded, and Wu Dashan said with a smile:

"Speaking of this thing, my family is the most advantageous. My house is on the top of the mountain, and people can see it at a little bit. Uncle Lin, your house is the worst. It's at the foot of the mountain. It takes a long time to go up after this point. It's a disadvantage. Or else, your family is looking for a place?"

When he said this, everyone around him laughed, how could it be so easy to find a cave in the mountains!Isn't this a teaser!After hearing this, Uncle Lin gave him a hard look, and said not to be outdone:

"My house is so convenient to drink water, what about your house! It takes half a day to pick up water on that trail, and a goat can be frozen to death when the wind blows inside."

The corners of Wu Dashan’s mouth froze all of a sudden. His house really is. It was a stone bridge-like place on the top of the mountain. Some walls come out, and it looks like three or five rooms. The lighting is good, the ventilation is good, the shelter effect is good, and you can stand tall and look far away. The only downside is that the draft is better, and it is not convenient to drink water. I want to pick it from the stream on the mountainside. Uncle Lin's words are like a snake hitting seven inches.

Wu Dalin, the second child among the Wu family brothers, saw that his brother was speechless, so he quickly poked his arm, and looked at the big pot of wolf meat that Zhao Yiyi had just brought up. His meaning was very clear, why did he say so much? !It's important to eat meat!See how real he is?One chopstick went up.

Wu Dashan is not an idiot either, when he saw this, he immediately started to eat, but he still has a stomach,
"Oh, brother and sister! People say that this wolf meat is not edible, but it can be so delicious! This skill is better than that of a chef. In this way, wouldn't the meat we left on the road be wasted? What a loss, what a crime!"

Even if he ate it, he couldn't stop him from talking, but other people thought it made sense, so no one said anything, and just ate it.Don't look at Orion's hunting all day long, it looks like it's all meat, but most of these can't be eaten in his mouth, and he needs to change rice noodles, fabrics, and things that are convenient for him, all of which are money!
"It's okay. There are four more at the door. There's a lot of meat. You just need to cook it with wine and stew it until it's rotten. It's good for your body. Wolf bones are also a good thing. Add some Lycium barbarum root, boiled in a bucket of water to make five liters, drinking it in a day, can also cure diseases. It is most useful for people with bad legs and cold bodies. Uncle Lin, it didn’t take long for you to recover from your illness last time. Wolf bones, you go back and cook them a few more times. I still have some deer bones here, which can be brewed in wine. I will also pack some for you. After the wolf bones are finished, the deer bone wine will be added. Next year, your legs and feet will definitely be better than before .”

Zhao Yiyi was sincerely grateful to those who came to help her, and she didn't hide any secrets. She directly told the usefulness of the wolf meat and wolf bones, and shared it with everyone. The most important thing for Orion is the bones of the legs and feet. Well, as long as this is good, you can make more money!They must like such good news.

Sure enough, those hunters were pleasantly surprised when they heard it. Erwa Lin put down the bowl immediately and said to Uncle Lin:

"Father, let's go back after we finish eating. The wolves we skinned on the road are meat for those beasts to eat. The bones are always left. We pick them all up. You can eat them for a long time! More than 30 Only! Third uncle, elder brother of the Wu family, what do you think! "
