Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

He Yuzhu stood leisurely in the spacious and lively kitchen space of the steel mill canteen. He looked particularly calm in this busy and orderly scene. Wherever he looked, he saw a lively scene. His colleagues were busy in an orderly and enthusiastic manner, each sticking to their posts and making careful preparations for the upcoming meal peak.

The huge steamers stand in the center of the kitchen like towering beasts. They are like the heart of the kitchen, spewing out white steam continuously. The steam swirls in the air like a group of fairies dancing in the air. They jump lightly, blending and entwining with the tempting aroma of various foods around them, weaving a warm and lively picture, making people feel like they are in a dreamlike world.

He Yuzhu, who had just finished his busy work, took advantage of this rare moment of leisure to walk to a relatively quiet corner, ready to take a break and adjust his state. He found a comfortable position to stand, closed his eyes slightly, felt everything around him, and enjoyed this rare tranquility and relaxation.

Soon, several colleagues who were also free gathered around, their faces filled with relaxed and happy smiles, and naturally started a relaxed and enjoyable chat. Everyone's topics were wild and imaginative, from family matters to national affairs. However, at some point, the topic of conversation from all over the world quietly shifted to Xu Damao's recent ridiculous hunting experience, which instantly ignited everyone's curiosity and gossip.

When Xu Damao is mentioned, everyone immediately thinks of his arrogant and self-boasting appearance. Especially when he mentions his so-called heroic deeds, he is eloquent and eloquent, as if the whole world owes him an Oscar. However, according to rumors, this guy suffered an unprecedented Waterloo in his last hunting operation - not only did he fail to capture any prey, but he also returned empty-handed and dejected.

What makes people laugh even more is that he was almost chased by a ferocious wild boar and almost got lost in the dense bushes! As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused an uproar among his colleagues. Everyone talked about it and expressed great interest and concern about Xu Damao's "heroic" experience.

When he heard the news, He Yuzhu's usually serious face couldn't help but slightly raise his eyebrows, outlining a smile full of deep meaning and a bit of teasing. He thought to himself: This Xu Damao really lived up to the old saying - "There are always people who are better than you, and there are always things better than you." From now on, he should never think of bragging about his "heroic" deeds in front of others.

He shook his head slightly, with a somewhat playful and sarcastic expression, and spoke slowly in a tone that was half-smile and half-amused: "In my opinion, Xu Damao's hunting was not a serious one at all! His so-called hunting experience was probably more like wandering around in the mountains, saying hello to the wild animals in a friendly manner, and then running back in fear!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up ripples and causing the people around to burst into deafening laughter. This laughter was like a summer rainstorm, rapid and fierce, and like waves spreading around one after another, making the whole scene instantly lively and full of laughter. Everyone's face was filled with a relaxed and happy smile, as if they were infected by He Yuzhu's humor and temporarily forgot the fatigue of work and the pressure of life.

He Yuzhu saw the crowd's reaction, and he couldn't help but feel an indescribable excitement in his heart. His already high spirits were like a raging fire, burning brightly and illuminating everything around him. He smiled, straightened his body slightly, and looked energetic and refreshed. Then, he cleared his throat slowly, and his movements and demeanor were like a famous actor who was about to perform on stage, ready to speak again and bring everyone a more exciting story.

"Speaking of hunting, when I was young and energetic, it was a truly majestic and legendary experience! I still remember one time when I bravely went into the deep mountains and old forests alone. At that time, I held tightly in my hand a worn-out but very reliable old-fashioned hunting rifle, and I was like a tiger ready to pounce, concentrating on searching for traces of prey. My eyes were so sharp that they could penetrate layers of leaves and lock onto the target in the distance. No movement could escape my eyes! At that moment, I seemed to have merged with nature and became the master of this forest!"

At this point, He Yuzhu paused deliberately, revealing a mysterious and complacent smile on his face. His eyes gleamed with confidence and pride, as if the legendary experience was reenacted before his eyes. This pause successfully whetted everyone's appetite, and everyone held their breath, expecting He Yuzhu to continue telling the thrilling hunting story.

Then, He Yuzhu's words attracted everyone's attention like a magnet. He continued to describe vividly:

"Hey, guess what happened next? Let me tell you, I had a great harvest that day! Not only did I easily hunt several plump and delicious hares, but I almost caught an extremely cunning fox! You know, that fox is famous for its cunningness. It has a strong body, agile movements, and its eyes reveal an indescribable alertness and intelligence. It is not an easy task to catch it. But who am I, He Yuzhu? This little challenge is like finding a needle in a haystack for me - although it is difficult, there is always a way!

I quietly set a trap in the place where it often appeared. It was a clever mechanism designed by myself. It looked simple but was full of mysteries. Then, I patiently hid aside and waited for the fox to fall into the trap. As time passed, my heart became more and more nervous, fearing that something would go wrong and let the cunning fox escape from my grasp.

Finally, at the moment when the sun was about to set, the fox appeared! It looked around cautiously, as if it was looking for something. When it came near the trap I set, it suddenly stopped and looked around with its vigilant eyes. My heart was in my throat, fearing that it would find the flaw. But fortunately, the fox was not able to escape my careful layout after all. It accidentally triggered the mechanism I designed and was trapped in an instant! "

When he said this, He Yuzhu's tone was full of undisguised pride and smugness, as if the thrilling hunting experience happened just yesterday, and every thrilling moment and every wonderful detail were deeply imprinted in his mind, and he still remembers it vividly. His face was filled with excitement and joy, as if he had returned to that young age full of challenges and excitement.

As He Yuzhu talked nonstop, other people who were busy in the kitchen were gradually attracted. They put down their work and gathered around He Yuzhu impatiently, staring with eyes wide open and ears pricked up, afraid of missing even the slightest bit of the exciting plot. Their faces were full of anticipation and curiosity, as if they were listening to the most touching story in the world.

At this moment, curiosity and anticipation were sparkling in the eyes of these people, just like the bright stars in the night sky, illuminating the entire kitchen.

"Oh my, is this true, Yuzhu? I didn't expect you to be so brave and fearless when you were young!" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed, his tone full of admiration and envy.

"Yes, yes, tell us quickly, how did you catch the fox?" another person urged anxiously, his eyes flashing with curiosity and desire.

"Also, have you ever encountered any particularly dangerous situations in the mountains? For example, encountering wild animals..." The crowd kept asking questions, and the atmosphere became increasingly heated. Everyone was immersed in the hunting world described by He Yuzhu, as if they had become the brave and fearless hunter.

The other people in the kitchen opened their eyes wide, their mouths opened as if they could fit an egg, their faces full of disbelief, as if they had heard the most incredible story in the world, and they were so shocked that they couldn't speak. They all looked at He Yuzhu with admiration, their eyes were filled with surprise, and they were deeply impressed by He Yuzhu's courage and wisdom. They were secretly amazed in their hearts, thinking that He Yuzhu was simply an omnipotent hero.

Even Old Li, who was usually silent and hard-working, couldn't hold back his curiosity and surprise. He slowly raised his head and fixed his eyes on He Yuzhu. His weather-beaten eyes shone with an unprecedented light. After hesitating for a while, Old Li asked, "Yuzhu, are you really that powerful? Those wild wolves are not easy to deal with! I've heard that they are not only extremely cunning, but also often appear in groups, and are extremely ferocious when hunting prey. Once the number increases, even the majestic tiger will retreat! How do you deal with them?"

When He Yuzhu heard what Lao Li said, the corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly, revealing a smug smile. In that smile, there was both pride in his past heroic deeds and satisfaction for the curiosity of Lao Li and others. He walked slowly to Lao Li, patted Lao Li's shoulder gently, and said with a confident and relaxed tone: "Lao Li, you only know part of the story! Yes, wild wolves are indeed very cunning, but we humans are not vegetarians! Wisdom is our most powerful weapon."

At this point, He Yuzhu deliberately kept the audience in suspense, pausing for a moment, with a sly look in his eyes. He glanced at the crowd around him and found that everyone's attention was completely attracted by him. Everyone stared with eyes wide open, holding their breath, with anticipation and curiosity written all over their faces, eager to know what happened next.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu nodded with satisfaction, and a brighter smile appeared on his lips. He then continued: "When I met the group of wild wolves, although I was a little nervous, my mind was working very fast. I carefully observed the surrounding terrain and found a narrow valley. Hehe, so I cleverly used this valley and made a brilliant plan. I deliberately made some noises to lure the wild wolves into the valley."

At this point, He Yuzhu's tone became more lively, and his hands gestured unconsciously, as if he had returned to that thrilling moment. He continued, "Then, I carefully set up traps at the entrance of the valley. I prepared those traps in advance, and they were filled with sharp bamboo thorns and sharp stones. The wild wolves didn't notice the danger at all, and rushed into the valley all at once. As you can imagine, they all fell into my traps one after another, wailing one after another, and they couldn't escape even if they wanted to! Hahaha, that scene was really satisfying! I was so happy when I looked at the trapped wild wolves!"

After saying this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but burst into laughter. His laughter was hearty and heroic, as if he was brought back to the thrilling scene of the fierce fight with the wolf, where his wisdom, courage and glory were. His laughter infected everyone present, and their hearts were also excited.

The people around him all stared with their eyes wide open and their ears erect, listening attentively to He Yuzhu's story of his thrilling experience. Their faces were full of concentration and shock, as if they had witnessed the spectacular scene of He Yuzhu fighting a group of ferocious wolves alone. That scene was so thrilling and so brave!

Everyone was immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves. Some even unconsciously clenched their fists, worrying for He Yuzhu, fearing that he would be hurt in the fight with the wolf; others opened their mouths wide, their faces full of disbelief and admiration, they had never thought that He Yuzhu had such extraordinary courage and wisdom.
