Three o'clock in the morning, Sparrow Hill.

Zhang Yaoyang asked Chen Ergou to follow at the back, while his father and brother were in the middle. The group hurried to the scene where the incident had happened during the day.

After the two of them had trampled and swept the road, there was nothing good left, so this time he changed a new road and moved forward.

Chen Ergou seemed to have mild night blindness. Comparing Sparrow Mountain during the day with that at night, he could not tell the directions at all, so he did not notice anything wrong.

Zhang Yaoyang walked at the front of the team. He caught every snake he saw and picked up every bird egg he saw.

His hands were so fast and he walked so fast that before the Zhang family could see anything, he had already cleared the way ahead.

The two of them walked along the way, and it was as smooth as if they were walking on the ridges of their own fields. They didn't even encounter a biting insect. For a moment, they couldn't help but sigh.

"I often hear the old people in the village talk about what happened in the mountains. They say it is so horrible. The result is just like this. If we had known this, we wouldn't have had to eat coarse food and endure so much hardship for so many years."

"Ah... It's quite fun in this mountain. I didn't see any prey. My hands are so weak holding the hatchet and I don't know where to put my strength. Hahaha..."

Chen Ergou said with a smile: "Uncle, Brother Yongqiang, don't be careless. During the day, my cousin's sister Xinghua was attacked by a wild boar, and we don't know what's going on now."

"Oh my god, I almost forgot about this. Tsk tsk tsk tsk ..."

As soon as he said this, Zhang's father and son felt a little bit tempted, but they quickly took it back.

After traveling through mountains and rivers, they finally reached the water source.

After getting some water and drinking a few sips, Zhang Yaoyang took Chen Ergou to the traps that had been set during the day.

There was something in the net bag, but it was a mountain rat. After biting a hole in the net, the rat was now stuck in a small eye and was in a dilemma.

This was something Zhang Anxin had repaired with great difficulty, but it rotted again so quickly.

"Get away from me, you bastard!"

Chen Ergou angrily beat it to death and threw it into the jungle far away.

He had no interest in rat meat. Of course, he had seen before that some people in the village, whose eyes turned green with hunger when they could not afford to eat, would catch rats and eat them out of desperation.

He himself couldn't bring himself to eat it anyway.

Not only him, but no one in the Zhang family wanted to eat rat meat.

In addition, there are two traps, both of which contain rewards.

One of them caught a fat bird, and its cry was very scary, like the cry of a wronged ghost. If you heard it in the middle of the night, you would think you had encountered an evil ghost.

The locals call this bird a ghost owl, which sounds a bit unlucky. No one will buy it if you take it to the market. It is still okay to take it home as a snack, as the meat is equivalent to half a chicken.

The bird's body was dead and hard, and it looked like it had been caught during the day.

In the other trap was a very large and beautiful bird, which was still struggling, with its feathers scattered all over the ground. It was obvious that it had been caught not long ago.

Everyone present had never seen this before and began to speculate.

"This should be a crane. I think it looks very similar to the one in that year's painting."

"My goodness, it's so big, not much smaller than a white goose, it must be a swan."

"I guess it's a egret. This thing is not easy to get. The clamp is so powerful!"

……

"No, no, no, you all didn't guess right."

Zhang Yaoyang's eyes flashed and he revealed the origin of the bird.

"This is a black stork. It likes to live near water. It must have been caught by the trap just before we arrived. We are really lucky."

This thing, in the future, will be a beast that will be jailed for life, so don't dare to touch it casually. If you can catch it alive now, the price will go up quickly.

His father Zhang Yongshou chuckled and said, "It's better to read more books. You can know everything in the world in your head. Yaoyang is good."

Chen Ergou followed suit and praised: "It's not that reading more is good, it's that Yaoyang has a good brain and can remember everything he sees. I also read, but I don't know anything."

Zhang Yongshou knocked him on the forehead and said, "Look how proud you are. You just want to have fun and you still have the nerve to say it out loud."

"hey-hey……"

After everyone had collected all the prey, they left the trap there.

This is a Feng Shui treasure land. If you go up the mountain to pick up food once a day, you will never starve to death.

Zhang Yaoyang just let them do what they wanted and did not stop them.

It was not until they saw the dead wild boar that the Zhang father and son could not help but gasp.

Such a big fat thing, picked up for free, this is really...

The two of them stood there in a daze, their faces flushed with excitement. They were even more excited than the pile of things Zhang Yaoyang had bought home.

Getting something for free and paying for it are two completely different feelings.

Zhang Yaoyang squatted down and pointed at the pig's belly and said, "This pig just gave birth to piglets. If we don't find the piglets, they might starve to death in this forest.

"This mountain is so vast, where can we find it?"

"Forget it. It's impossible to do it in the dark."

Although everyone was envious of the little wild boar, they really didn't want to continue with it for fear of any accidents.

Zhang Yaoyang was unwilling to let it go. He had been thinking about it and wanted to eat wild boar meat continuously.

"Ahem...wait for me here for half an hour while I try my luck. If I find it by chance, it means that this little pig is destined to be with us."

"If you can't find it, just go down the mountain and leave. Anyway, you have been walking for so long, you need to rest before you leave."

His father Zhang Yongshou said with some concern: "Yaoyang, it's too dangerous for you to go alone. Let Ergou and your brother go with you. I'll stay here."

Zhang Yaoyang also knew that they would definitely not trust him to go alone, and thinking that there would be no danger here, he agreed to the suggestion.

At the beginning, the three of them were wandering around in the forest. When they saw that the time was almost up, Zhang Yaoyang calmly led the two of them to where the little wild boar was.

As expected, the two were extremely satisfied with their harvest. There were three little wild boars in total. Each of them caught one and held it in his arms. They were so happy that they couldn't express it in words.

Just as half an hour passed, they appeared at the pond on time.

Zhang Yongshou's heart finally settled down.

Seeing the three little wild boars grunting, he naturally smiled. He quickly took off his clothes and put them in the backpack to settle the three little wild boars.

One person carried three little wild boars on his back, one person carried two birds on a stick, and the remaining two people were responsible for carrying the pigs.

The mountain path is difficult to walk on and the pig is heavy, so it takes about ten minutes for someone to lift it.

The four people took turns tirelessly, and the downhill journey that was supposed to take more than two hours took three hours.

When I got home, it was already dawn.

After the group handed over all the aftermath matters to Liu Huifang, they were so tired that they lay down and fell asleep without even washing their heads or faces.
