Rebirth 1983: The counterattack started from hunting in the mountains
Chapter 56: Getting Bitten and Crying While Taking Honey
Xinghua found that she had never been so happy. Her life suddenly jumped from the black and white gutter to a colorful new world.
In the mountains that everyone fears, she walked along the way, enjoying the mountains and rivers, picking wild flowers, and listening to the birds singing. She has always been protected by Zhang Yaoyang and the other man.
Even the heavy baggage was carried by two people who took turns to help her carry it, so that she did not feel tired.
At the beginning, she was a little reserved and followed carefully, fearing that she would fall behind.
Later, she found that the two of them actually took good care of her and would help her when they encountered difficult mountain roads.
Nor would he show dissatisfaction just because she walks slowly.
Such care made her feel warm in her heart, as if her dried-up life was being reinfused with blood.
The two of them treated her as well as their own family. She could only keep it in mind and secretly vowed to repay them when she had the chance.
At noon, they collected firewood and made a fire. They ate barbecued meat, which was a pheasant and a rabbit that Zhang Yaoyang had shot.
He is like a hunting god who never misses his target, but no matter where the prey appears, it cannot escape his grasp.
They had only been in the mountains for three hours, and apart from collecting some wild fruits and mushrooms, their biggest gain was this little bit of game.
Of course, these were all the gains that Zhang Yaoyang displayed on the surface. In fact, he had already collected all the herbs and wild delicacies of some value along the way and put them into the warehouse.
The second-level mountain herder's level allows him to collect prey at the speed of light. Basically, as soon as a person walks by, the good things around him have been collected.
If this ghostly technique were used in a gambling house, he would become a rare con man, and it would be hard to find an opponent.
Unfortunately, he is an upright person and would not touch such shady things, so he dare not even think about making money through this way.
The free and easy atmosphere and the three people getting along so well together made Xinghua think for a moment that she was in a dream, and she even almost forgot the purpose of going into the mountains.
It was not until Zhang Yaoyang pulled her over and asked her to dig up the rhizome of a plant that she realized that she had come to the mountain to try her luck.
At this time, what they dug was a plant called Niudali, which can be used to make wine and is said to be liked by rich people.
This thing can be used as medicine and is quite famous. The key point is that when Zhang Yaoyang saw this plant, he got a clue for the first time.
There is a wealthy and idle man in Taiping Township who is trying to buy this thing for a large sum of money, and the price he offers is as high as thousands.
It seems that the other party has an ancient recipe, and this thing is needed as a medicine.
However, this kind of thing is not sold in ordinary pharmacies. It is not that it is difficult to find, but many people do not know this medicine and only regard it as a weed. Once they see it, they will eradicate it.
Scarcity makes things valuable. This thing may not be worth a penny in some places, but if it happens to be found by someone who needs it, it will be a priceless treasure.
Let's leave this good fortune to this poor woman.
Zhang Yaoyang just stood by and gave instructions, asking him to dig slowly with a small hoe.
It's a very big one, and the old root of the mountain that has grown for many years makes it look very thick and fat.
"Put it on this stone platform to dry in the sun first. It will be almost dry when we come back, just in time to take it down the mountain."
"Ah... this, can we still find it? This mountain is so big."
Xinghua’s idea was to work harder and carry the collected things along with her.
She will feel more at ease when she has the things with her.
Zhang Yaoyang smiled. These hills were like his back garden. He knew them all well. There was no reason for him to get lost in his own garden.
"Don't worry, I'm here so your things won't get lost. Just do as I say and don't ask any other questions."
Thinking of the rules Zhang Yaoyang mentioned when he went up the mountain, Xinghua obediently shut her mouth.
While waiting for Xinghua to paw at Niu Dali, Zhang Yaoyang was not idle, but set up some traps nearby. They were all live traps that would not kill the prey.
These would bring him a lot of gains every time, and also serve as proof for him to distribute the prey to them in a fair and just manner.
After doing all this, the three of them continued on their journey with ease.
Zhang Yaoyang found a large nest of wild honey in a tree hole.
This thing is a rare good thing in this era.
Professional beekeepers had not yet emerged, and it was not easy for people to eat such honey. Therefore, generally speaking, the selling price was much more expensive than candy and the like.
But no matter how expensive it is, it only costs a few dollars per pound.
Zhang Yaoyang is not short of this little money now. The first thing he thinks of is to use it to take care of his family's health.
Therefore, when going up the mountain, I specially asked Zhang Anxin to make a few fertilizer bags with carrying ropes.
There is a ceramic jar inside, which is used to store honey.
It is very dangerous to collect this kind of wild honey, as you may easily be targeted by bees if you are not careful.
If it is serious, it may even lead to death.
This was not the first time that Chen Ergou had stirred up a hornet's nest, so he had some experience in this regard.
"Let me do it. I promise to clean it all out. Hehe..."
Men love to do this kind of thing the most. Now that he has encountered it, he is unwilling to miss it no matter what.
Zhang Yaoyang didn't argue with him. He wanted to see if Chen Ergou could still live so comfortably without his protection.
This guy was a little too proud. He had gone down the mountain too smoothly several times, which made him lose his respect for the mountains.
This is a terrible thing.
It would be fine if Zhang Yaoyang could protect her all the time.
I’m afraid this guy doesn’t know the seriousness of the matter, and one day he gets so upset that he runs headfirst into the mountains, which would be tantamount to seeking death.
Chen Ergou found some dead branches and leaves and set them on fire, which produced thick black smoke.
Use black smoke to slowly approach the bee colony and drive away these annoying little creatures first, then it will be much easier to collect honey.
According to his plan, as long as he ran faster, at most he would get two or three stings on his body, and the pain would go away.
Who would have thought that the bees in the deep mountains and old forests were so ferocious and aggressive. After sensing the danger, they launched a crazy revenge on Chen Ergou.
“Ahhh…go away, don’t bite me…”
Chen Ergou kept slapping the bees that surrounded him and making loud noises.
Zhang Yaoyang, carrying the apricot blossoms, hid behind a stone in the distance.
There are a lot of dead leaves here. If there are really bees chasing them, they can throw the leaves over themselves and hide underneath them to escape.
At this time, seeing Ergou's embarrassed look, Xinghua became a little worried.
"I'd better go and help, it's too dangerous!"
Zhang Yaoyang grabbed her arm and said, "There's no rush. If you go, you'll just cause more trouble."
With a flash of his eyes, he could see that Chen Ergou had been bitten more than ten times.
Tsk tsk... It must be so painful, this guy is asking for trouble, he can't blame anyone else.
They had gotten some honey before, but not this big a nest, just enough for the two of them to satisfy their cravings.
This time, the jar of honey looked heavy, obviously there was a good harvest.
The cost is just too high. If he were to do it, he wouldn't get a single bag.
Tsk tsk, Chen Ergou really thought this thing was easy to get, but the price he paid was enough to make him pay the price.
Under the gaze of the two men, Chen Ergou ran over crying and screaming, with a look of fear on his face, and he almost dropped the honeypot several times.
Behind him was a swarm of bees, with a constant buzzing sound, like an attacking army of thousands.
