Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

"Brother Shengli, you are a little too happy! There are only sixteen deer antlers in total. How much are they worth?" Liu Hongjun reminded with a smile.

"Only sixteen deer took off their antlers? Why so few?" Upon hearing this, Qian Shengli was immediately disappointed.

"There is nothing we can do about it. We are encircling them every year. How many deer can there be? The rate of reproduction cannot keep up with the rate of death.

The number of this herd decreases every year, and maybe it will disappear completely in a few years. Liu Hongjun laughed.

"This is also the reason. Since the separation, the hunters in our village have become more active than before, running into the mountains every two days.

Hunting, setting traps, digging pits, all kinds of methods were used.

This year alone, our villages alone have hunted at least twice as many wild animals as in previous years. There are eighteen villages in Taipinggou alone.

Our mountain has more than one Taipinggou. There are so many wild animals in this mountain, how can we hunt them down?

I think wild animals like wild boars reproduce very quickly, with a litter of seventy or eighty animals a year, so they are not afraid of being beaten. " Qian Shengli also sighed with emotion.

"From now on, let's hunt some wild boars, hares, pheasants, etc., just enough for us to eat. Otherwise, we won't be in trouble!" Liu Hongjun said.

"You're right. Let's hunt less and drive more in the mountains from now on. There are many good things in these mountains. There is no need to catch wild animals and use them hard." Qian Shengli said with great approval.

"Brother Red Army!" The two of them talked for a while before Dashan and Shitou ran over carrying pheasants, wild ducks, and hares.

“The harvest is not small.

You go and kill it, let’s just roast it and eat it! "Liu Hongjun praised, and then gave direct instructions.

"Okay, Brother Red Army, leave it to us at noon today. Dashan and I will be responsible for cooking." Shitou said, patting his chest.

"Okay! Let's see your craftsmanship at noon!" Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

Dashan and Shitou followed Wang Yuejin to the Four Nine Cities several times, and their temperament changed a lot. They were no longer the timid mountain village youths they used to be.

But they are different from those educated youths.

They still have the simplicity of mountain village youths, but they have more experience and should be said to be mature.

They are much more mature than the mountain village youths of their age.

This is a change brought about by vision.

Liu Hongjun can't say whether this change is good or bad, let's wait and see.

After finishing lunch, Liu Hongjun took out a roll of plastic sheeting from his backpack.

"Brother Red Army, what are you doing with the plastic sheet?"

"Let's build a tent at the foot of the mountain and on the edge of the swamp, and catch some forest frogs." Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

This season has come when wood frogs return to rivers and lakes from the mountains and forests.

Wood frogs at this time are more valuable than those in spring.

Snow clam oil is the ovaries of wood frogs, which are only found in female frogs in autumn.

In later generations, when some people caught forest frogs, they did so in a desperate manner. A tent surrounded the entire mountain, and no forest frog, big or small, could escape.

The fence built by Liu Hongjun was only a few dozen meters long. After catching the forest frogs, it was removed in two days. There was no such thing as extermination.

Under the command of Liu Hongjun, Qian Shengli and the others cut down branches, set up the tent, and then dug a hole about half a meter in front of the tent.

By the time I finished my busy work, it was already past three in the afternoon.

"Okay, it's done here, let's hurry up and find the old village." Liu Hongjun looked at the completed fence and trap, clapped his hands and said with a smile.

Liu Hongjun first found three stones and arranged them two horizontally and one vertically. This is the old man's house.

Then I found three more branches and planted them in front of the old man's house.

These three branches represent incense.

After planting the branches, Liu Hongjun took the lead. Qian Shengli, Dashan and Shitou stood behind Liu Hongjun and began to kneel down to the old man's house.

Pray to the mountain gods to bless them with good harvests.

After completing the worship,

Liu Hongjun's four men, each with a rope and a stick, began to press the mountain.

The so-called mountain pressing means that four people separate, spread out, start from the foot of the mountain, and search slowly. No one can talk during the process. No matter if they encounter a river, a stone, or a tree, Liu Hongjun, as the leader, does not open his mouth, and no one can turn around. .

Only after Liu Hongjun shouted "beat the kidnapper" could he turn the corner.

A group of four people searched slowly. As for the dogs, they had been let out a long time ago and were free to roam. Maybe the dogs could bring them some surprises at night.

Liu Hongjun waved his roping stick while recalling the news he heard about the old village of Lujiao Peak in his previous life.

It seemed that the news about Lao Zunzi and the news about Lujiao Valley came out at about the same time.

Well, there was Lujiao Valley first, and then Laoqiaozi.

This means that Laotunzi is not far from Lujiao Valley.

Therefore, after discovering Lujiao Valley, I accidentally discovered this old village.

Looking for Laofengzi is not just an aimless search.

Wild ginseng grows in broad-leaved forests or mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forests. It likes humid, shady and cool environments with small temperature differences. It is generally distributed on gentle mountain slopes or slopes at an altitude of 500 to 1100 meters.

Wild ginseng grows very slowly and has very demanding environmental requirements, requiring specific climate, soil and vegetation conditions.

野生人参生长范围是在东经117°～134°，北纬40°～48°，海拔高度在300米以上，整个年降水量在500～1000mm，并且生长期平均湿度要达到70%左右。

So when looking for wild ginseng, follow the above conditions and look for it on the shady slopes of mountains and the shady sides of thick old trees.

The shady side of those sturdy old trees was the focus of their search.

Liu Hongjun was searching carefully when he suddenly heard Dashan shouting loudly not far away.

"wooden club!"

"What kind of leaves?" Liu Hongjun quickly replied.

"Four-grade leaves!"

"How many seedlings?"

"It's all over the mountain!"

After calling the mountain to the mountain, Liu Hongjun, Qian Shengli, and Shitou all quickly approached the mountain.

"Brother Red Army!" There was a wooden stick tied with red cloth stuck next to the ginseng. Dashan knelt next to it, raising his head and grinning at Liu Hongjun and the other three.

All four of them had wooden sticks tied with red cloth strips, specially prepared for this moment.

"Good luck!" Liu Hongjun nodded.

Dashan's luck is really good. It seems that Dashan was the first to discover the old village last time.

"I'll carry the ginseng, and you guys can look around again!" Liu Hongjun patted Dashan's shoulder and said.

"Okay! There must be some fourth-grade leaves around!" Qian Shengli also said happily.

Although it is only a fourth-grade leaf, it means that there really is an old village nearby.

Liu Hongjun took off his backpack and took out the tools for digging ginseng: sickle, deer bone drill...

First, pull out the weeds around the ginseng with your hands, spread the soil, and reveal the true appearance of the ginseng bit by bit.
