The Beginning of Siheyuan Blackmailing Yi Zhonghai
Chapter 40 Hunting
Lunch is not ready yet, but the food has already been replaced.
We had no intention of making any money, so the purchase price was much higher than that of outside buyers or the commune.
The villagers were afraid that Skinny Monkey would lose money and not come back next time, so they stuffed him with a lot of dried meat, which in turn made Skinny Monkey feel embarrassed.
Hu Yulan cooked a large table of dishes, including chicken, fish, and several kinds of game. It was very rich. Firstly, she was happy that Wang Tiedan was still alive. Secondly, she was really grateful to Shouhou and Dahan for saving her life. This was such a great favor.
The guests enjoyed the meal very much and their mouths were full of oil.
Wang Tiedan proposed the idea of taking his grandmother back to Sijiucheng for medical treatment, but his parents did not agree. They had money now and had planned to take her there themselves in a few days so as not to burden Wang Tiedan.
However, Wang Tiedan still insisted on his opinion. In his impression, his grandmother was very good to him. If he didn't receive treatment soon, he might not survive the winter.
Some people say that you can drink more spiritual spring water, but if you suddenly get better for no apparent reason, you may suffer a disaster, so it is better to be careful.
Skinny Monkey also expressed his opinion that the medical conditions in the city are indeed better, so he should go there for treatment and recuperation as soon as possible while the weather is not too cold. He could also rent a house and let his younger sister go over to take care of him, and then come back when it gets warmer in spring.
Wang Tiedan suddenly thought of Lou Xiao'e in the courtyard. Why rent a house? Why not just ask her for one? He could exchange information with her and she would have to treat him to a midnight snack!
I decided that the only issue was the journey. Since the old man couldn't handle it, I would hire a horse carriage from Miyun County to Shunyi, and after a night's rest, I would take a bus directly to Sijiucheng.
In the afternoon, Skinny Monkey and Dahan, who had eaten and drunk their fill, couldn't help but want to go to the mountains to take a look.
Hunting is a man's romance.
There were guns in the village, and a lot of them. The village chief was very generous and gave each person fifty rounds of bullets. He also sent several good hunters in the village to follow. One of them was Wang Tiedan's brother, Wang Gangdan.
A group of six people climbed up the mountain and climbed over several hills, but didn't see a single hair.
Seeing that the skinny monkey was a little discouraged, Wang Gangdan said, "Don't worry, brother monkey. There must be prey. Just walk a little further in."
"Don't they say that if you live in a mountain, you can live on it? You won't see any tigers or wild boars, and you won't see any pheasants or rabbits at all?"
"It was OK before, with wild boars often coming down the mountain to damage crops. In recent years, we look forward to seeing wild boars coming down the mountain to damage crops every day."
“I thought the wild boars were in large groups and the villagers were afraid to fight them.”
"Hey, when people are desperate and hungry, even if there are a group of black bears, they will still take a bite of its meat.
In 58, we started to eliminate the four pests. We killed both tigers and flies, and the surrounding prey was cleared out several times. In the following three years, people were so hungry that not only wild boars and rabbits, but even the nearby mice were caught clean.
Later, the army also came and went directly to the deep mountains and forests. Every day was like a war. Wild boars, roe deer, and deer were pulled out in carts. No matter how much prey there was, it was not allowed to do so.
The situation has improved in recent years, but we still have to climb a few more hills.”
As he was speaking, Wang Tiedan pulled everyone together and pointed to a place not far away.
"Hare."
"Where is where?"
The skinny monkey couldn't wait to raise his gun and attack like a traitor.
Dahan also blinked his eyes and searched continuously.
"I saw it, let me do it!" One of the hunters was called Wang Dazhong, he raised his gun and shot without hesitation.
Bang.
Grass clippings flew everywhere, the hare twisted its butt, and quickly disappeared into the bushes.
"I haven't fired a gun for a long time. It was a mistake." Wang Dazhong scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Well, there must be nothing nearby, let's keep going."
Wang Gangdan had already gotten used to it. The guns were all old, Hanyang-made, Mauser, Type 55, and the rifling was almost gone, so it was normal that he couldn't hit the target.
The group walked and stopped, and climbed over two hills, only then did they find that there were more wild animals.
"There's a wild boar, climb the tree! Quickly!" Wang Tiedan suddenly urged.
"Where is it?"
Everyone didn't understand yet, but when they saw Wang Tiedan climbing up a big tree nearby, they followed closely behind.
Before long, a rustling sound came from not far away, and in the blink of an eye a big wild boar rushed out, scaring everyone.
The wild boar grunted as it rushed under the tree and started to nibble on some grass without caring about anything else.
And judging from the noise, it seemed like there was prey behind.
"Shoot, shoot, quick! Shoot!"
Everyone was overjoyed. Except for Dahan, the other five hurriedly took out their guns from their backs and pulled the trigger at the wild boar under the tree.
The wild boar was hit by several bullets and fell to the ground.
There was uncontrollable excitement on everyone's face. No one had expected to be able to kill a wild boar weighing over 200 kilograms.
Just as we were getting excited, another head popped up from the bushes not far away. It was another wild boar, not very big, and looked hesitant and conflicted.
Wang Gangdan raised his gun and shot, but as expected, he shot in vain.
The little wild boar quickly retreated into the bushes and disappeared.
"Brother Monkey, do you feel good now?" Wang Gangdan asked the skinny monkey with a smile.
The skinny monkey's mouth was stretched behind his ears. He didn't expect that he could kill a wild boar on his first hunting trip.
"That's awesome. How do we transport this big wild boar back?"
"We have to leave quickly. The smell of blood is too strong and may attract black bears and tigers."
The six people hurried down the tree.
The four hunters divided the work and cooperated with each other, keeping watch, bleeding the boar, making a simple stretcher, etc. After a while, they lifted the wild boar and drove it towards the village.
Not long after they left, a black bear smelled the scent and came over, shaking its head. However, it did not lick the pig's blood, but instead ate the grass left by the wild boar.
The road was not easy to walk on, but Wang Tiedan and his party hardly stopped and arrived at the village before the sun set.
Now, Dawang Village is lively again.
After the village chief Wang Dexing figured out how the wild boar was killed, he did not hesitate and forced half of the meat to be given to Shouhou and his friends. The rest was half sold and half given away. The hunters took a part, and the rest belonged to the collective.
The whole village ate the pig-killing meal together in the evening, and the noise did not stop until midnight.
At night, the village chief took special care of Shouhou and Dahan and arranged them to stay at the village committee, while Wang Tiedan stayed at home and slept in the same bed with his brother Wang Gang.
The reason why wild boars were attracted here today was purely because of the spiritual spring.
However, this is a secret and cannot be told to anyone, even your loved ones.
"Brother, I will go back tomorrow."
"Well, stay two more days?"
"Grandma's illness can't wait, and the meat can't be kept for too long, so it must be processed as soon as possible."
"Okay, you make your own arrangements. Come home more often when you have time. Mom and Dad don't say it, but they've been thinking about you a lot in the past few years."
"Well, I will come back often. When I feel better over there, I will bring my parents to live in the city with me."
"That's fine. Life in the countryside is really hard."
"What about you, aren't you going?"
"Forget it. I don't know anything except hunting and farming. There has to be someone to look after the house."
For a moment, the room fell into silence.
