[Red Mansion] Father and Son Crossover

Chapter 14 Hunting and Pythons

Jiao Yufeng's guess was absolutely correct. As soon as he said to go up the mountain with a bow and arrow, a group of people surrounded him, all staring at the bow and arrow in his hand greedily.This thing looks inconspicuous, but it can be placed outside. There are no two or eight taels, so don’t even think about it. Way, the tool is too expensive.

But now, there is such a first guy among them, not to mention going up the mountain together to make money, just to follow the fun, look for opportunities, and have a chance to help themselves, and they will follow along.

So, in the end, not to mention the young men in the village, even those in their forties were not left behind, only a few old men in their 60s and [-]s were left there to help pull the old houses. Sticks, even holding a hatchet, all followed up the mountain, and there were even those who felt that they might not be able to get on the wheel, carrying a basket on their backs, holding a hoe, and wanted to gather medicine by rubbing against the crowd. This posture, it is estimated that even prey would be shocked. gone.

Stunned away?Maybe, anyway, since this group of people went up the mountain, they haven't even met a pheasant.It made the people who went up the mountain very frustrated. Except for those who collected the herbs with joyful faces and kept digging, the others were basically a bit boring.

Things in this world are so strange, whenever you feel hopeless, this surprise comes again, look, this is not it, just turned a corner, they suddenly found a big thing - a giant python.This is really all of a sudden, everyone was shocked.In a certain rocky depression, a giant python devouring a lamb suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Hurry up, move slowly while this thing is busy, you two, that stick hits the head...you two go to the tail, be careful, this thing's tail is stronger than a whip... and you, Hurry up and knock on your stomach... Remember, you have to work hard, you can't let it slow down..."

At the critical moment, the people living on the edge of the mountain showed more tenacity and determination than ordinary people in the plains. Before the young ones came back to their senses, the older ones over there immediately took command and threw them with their back baskets. Don't care about it anymore, staring at the giant python, even one of them snatched Jiao Yufeng's bow and arrow, pointed straight at the giant python's eyes, and shot it with one arrow.Good guy, he hit it right away.Although the giant python dodged very nimbly, after all, it brushed past the eyes, causing damage to the eyes.

Well, although snakes seem to rely on their tongues to distinguish the distance of smells, but this is near the head. . .If you are injured, you are injured, and the effect is still very good. At least this boosts morale very strongly. It can be seen that several other people who received the task have already mustered up the courage to rush forward.

"God, Third Grandpa, you..."

The kid next to him, who had no mission for the time being, looked at the grey-haired old man in his forties, and looked a little silly. Is this the third grandfather who lived a miserable life in their village?Does this look like the slightest bit of uselessness in the past?Listen, whether it's expressions or words, they have faded from their former appearance, revealing a bit of fierceness.

"I used to be a soldier and fought in battles. No matter what happens, I'm better than you boys. Jiao Dalang, then pointed a bow and arrow at the giant python. This thing should go crazy. Others, hurry up and get it!" Knock on the tree, run around it, make it feel as human as possible..."

Sure enough, people cannot be judged by their appearance.This is actually like Jiao Da, a veteran who crawled back from the dead on the battlefield?Well, if you have the luck like Jiao Da, I'm afraid you must have a very comfortable life.After working hard for a while, Jiao Yufeng still has time to think wildly in his mind. From this, it can be seen that this guy has an unusually big heart. This is a giant python. It is as thick as an adult's thigh and more than five meters long. . .

Just as the third grandpa finished speaking, before Jiao Yufeng's spiritual thoughts fell to the ground, the giant python was really enraged as the third grandpa said. If the lamb hadn't happened to get stuck in its mouth and moved slowly, it would probably be at this moment. They've all rushed over.But even so, it didn't mean to let it go.While spitting out the contents of its mouth, it threw its tail, and the whole body of the snake was still writhing crazily, taking advantage of the favorable location to squeeze the men who besieged him to the side.

This move almost made it succeed, boy, I didn't notice it just now, but now I realized that there is a very steep cliff-like place over there, if it really squeezes down, it will be a disaster. . .This thing, it can grow to such a big size that it is almost perfect. Fortunately, there are so many of them, they can still exchange them.

But a giant python is a giant python, its body is ineffective, and there is a big killer, which is the sharpest tail.Look, the attack on the crowd at the beginning has achieved results. The first boy who passed by was accidentally swept onto his leg and flew out in an instant. When he landed, he could hear the sound of bones breaking. Needless to say, he must It is broken.Not to mention that one of the hands was instantly damaged, it also aroused its ferocity even more.

And with this, other people are naturally more careful, two people get together, one sticks to attract the tail to attack, the other hides aside, and unexpectedly hits the stick without anyone's orders, and they all use all their strength to attack again. In addition to the desperate efforts of the people in the other two places after seeing the injury, in just a while, the giant python that had just spit out the lamb was covered with scars.

But even so, it didn't flinch, and even wanted to take advantage of its empty mouth to jump up and ruthlessly. At this time, Jiao Yufeng played a big role, and the bow and arrow that had been on guard flew out with a swish, directly It was inserted into the mouth of the giant python.

"Okay, good job, Jiao Dalang."

What a good job, the good job is yet to come, although Jiao Yufeng's great strength made the bow and arrow directly penetrate the mouth and the back of the giant python's throat, but he has rich experience in the mountains and forests, and he knows that this snake-like creature is very Some Xiaoqiang attributes, even if their heads are cut off, they have the habit of taking a bite when they are dying, so as soon as they succeed here, they immediately throw away the bow and arrow, snatch the stick from the person next to them and go straight forward, aiming at the python's head again. He was ruthless, and finally picked up a big rock next to him, and smashed it on the head for the third time.

With so many attacks, plus injuries to other parts, the giant python finally lowered its head, dying, and couldn't get up again.At this time, that reckless kid wanted to step forward to have a closer look, and he took a step away, but was stopped by the old man behind him.He cursed ferociously:

"You are looking for death, why do you want to hit the head three times when you are Jiao Dalang? This thing is crazy, wait, wait until he dies half a cup of tea before going over, if you have the time to find it quickly, since this thing can swallow lambs , there must be a flock of sheep around here, maybe there are other injured sheep, such a thick one, you can kill one by sweeping it, and you, hurry up to see Sanzi, isn't it broken? Little thing, be careful, the sound is very crisp, it should be able to connect."

Can you tell if it is a fracture or a comminuted fracture?This ability, hehe, really, is enough to be an imperial physician.Of course, Jiao Yufeng didn't have time to care about this right now, he didn't care if he was right or not, anyway, someone has already gone to save people, as long as they don't die, they can always be saved when they go back, so it's worth the trip.It doesn't matter if he doesn't rush to find something, but the hexagram said, big surprise, can this giant python alone be a big surprise?Even if the snake gall is valuable, the other parts of the python. . .I also hope that the weight and volume can attract some attention and get a good price. Generally, snake meat is not worth much.

Since it is said to be a big surprise, it is naturally a big surprise. Look, although Jiao Yufeng hasn't harvested it for the time being, the guy with the broken bone has already got it.This guy is lucky, not only is there no serious problem, he just has a broken calf, which can be healed in three months, and he also picked up the snake slough of the giant python by the side!Whoops, this is a valuable item. With this size, it can be sold for five or six taels of silver. That boy doesn't even hurt his legs anymore.Holding the snake slough, he began to grin and shout:

"Buy land, buy two acres, my family can have six acres of land. Two acres of land that has not been taxed for three years, my sister doesn't have to be sold..."

The other people who looked at this madly were jealous, and of course no one argued with him. This is because he fought his life, and it was his luck. Otherwise, why would others not see it, right?But there were crying words in the joy. . .Jiao Yufeng felt a little sour.But no matter how sour it was, it didn't stop him from wanting a big surprise.

Sure enough, with his start, other people started to open one after another. Just like what the old man said, there are really goats nearby, just behind the depression, half a cliff-like place, Those who went looking for it just slipped halfway down the road and found two goats with broken legs. This is definitely a big harvest, and they are still alive. The price will go up immediately.

In addition, a snake cave was found nearby, good guy, among other things, the three snake-like grasses at the entrance of the cave are good things, worth a lot of money.If you add the bowl of four giant python eggs and two relatively fresh antlers, this trip is truly rewarding. . .

"Except for the snake slough, give it to the third son as a subsidy for his injury. If the rest are put together, everyone who comes here today will have a share. Third grandfather, what do you think? What about the big guy, do you think it's fair?"

As the organizer, Jiao Yufeng, who found the antlers and snake eggs, gained the most, and made the greatest contribution in dealing with the giant python, was the first to talk about the distribution plan.Well, only he said it was the most suitable. After all, if it is divided according to credit, he probably can get the most, right?

But can he say that?This is also because basically everyone contributes. Under such circumstances, if you want to divide according to credit, it is not clear how to distinguish, and it is easy to cause conflicts. Under such circumstances, it is better to have a pot of stew like this , Anyway, watching them unite.

Sure enough, everyone was very satisfied.Even the third grandfather who was the first to shoot an arrow and gave orders also nodded cheerfully.He said with joy:

"That's good. They are all from the folks in the village. If the calculation is too clear, it will end up being divided. It is rare for us to go up the mountain once, and we have won such a good fortune. We can't let this good thing become a bad thing. By the way, I will take a closer look at it later , there is this giant python here, and other big things should not come. In this way, this kind of pheasant and rabbit must be easy to hunt, and the medicinal materials must be easier to pick. Get more, and see when you go back, which one? It’s the least valuable, so keep it here, let’s spend it extravagantly, eat it at night, and sell the rest together later. It’s estimated that this time we can share a lot of each one.”

With such a reputable old man supporting Jiao Yufeng, the matter is settled like this, except that two people are assigned to chop wood, and they are going to carry the injured San'er away first, the rest are really, they came directly around here A big bargain hunting, not even letting go of the fungus on the tree, everyone's baskets and cloth bags were full, and only then were they ready to go down the mountain happily.

At this time, Jiao Yufeng suddenly turned around, turned his body around, and picked up the lamb spit out by the giant python again. . .

"Jiao Dalang, what are you talking about? Could it be that you don't even let this giant python spit it out?"

"Why let it go, I just realized that this lamb... the giant python just swallowed half of it and met us, then this thing has just been suffocated to death. It should still be edible."

"That can't be said. The things swallowed by this python are all directly crushed bones and internal organs, and swallowed. This lamb... Maybe the gall is broken, so it can still be eaten?"

"Why don't we dig it open and have a look? Isn't this swallowed from the beginning? Maybe it's just the head is broken? If that's the case, this is lamb meat, which is very valuable."

Look, let Jiao Yufeng remind him like this, if he thinks that this thing is valuable, he will have it immediately.They are all poor families, and the money is very tight, so how can they let go of such a piece of money.

And since it is a big surprise, the hexagram is naturally not wrong, and it will help to collect more money. As expected, this lamb is only broken with bones on the head, and other parts are still fine. What is there to say?It's money again!

With such a move, everyone's walking back is brisk. It doesn't matter what kind of rocks or roughness. It's just that the backs are straighter, and those who are interested have already begun to count. Here comes the money.

"This trip, I see how it can sell for seven to eighty taels. Look, snake gall, how can there be ten taels? It's so big that ordinary people can see it? And these two live sheep, even if they are broken Legs, how come there are 80 taels. Snake meat and snake skin can also be sold for money. If they are sold in restaurants, they can be mixed together for a dozen taels. That is more than 30. If there is this lamb meat, even if it is small Point, ten taels is also available. And the antlers, can ten taels be sold? This giant python egg is also a rare item. If it is sent to the capital and meets someone who likes rare things, then ten taels can also be sold. But four. That's already 50 taels. If there is this snake-like grass, all kinds of herbs and delicacies in the baskets of us, why do I think that if the calculation is more broad, 80 taels is also possible Woolen cloth?"

"Hey, don't tell me, let you do the math, it's really possible, hey, we've only come a few people, if this... doesn't it mean that each of us can get around ten taels Even if there are no ten taels, there are eight taels... four acres of wasteland, mother, can our village still divide it?"

"Ten taels? Eight taels? Oh my mother, I've never seen so much money when I grow up. In previous years, the family saved two taels and could have fun secretly."

"Jiao Dalang, Jiao Dalang, tell me, can there be so many?"

Among these people, the one who went to the capital most diligently and was connected to a wealthy family in the capital, Jiao Dalang became the object of everyone's attention. What did Jiao Yufeng say?He hasn't figured it out yet, but since everyone has asked. . .

"Why don't you? The big guys send out a few people to drive my family's ox cart with me? First send San'er to the medical clinic, and then we will take our things and go directly to Ningguo Mansion to see if the Duke wants it. If they want it, then the reward is definitely not small, probably more than what we calculated. If they don’t want it, if we send it to the hospital, it’s hard for them to press our price. I guess...it’s not 100 taels , it won’t be much worse.”

"Hey, that's a good idea."

"Guogong Mansion, Jiao Dalang, you really have a plan."

"Hurry up, I haven't seen what the Duke's Mansion looks like yet, let's get rich and noble."

"Come on, you're talking lively at this moment. When you get there, it's your job not to shake your legs."

"What are you shouting about, anyway, this time entering the mountain, hehe, we are really..."

"Stupid, we are blessed by Jiao Dalang. Didn't he say that we can think of such a good thing today on a whim?"

"Jiao Dalang, don't worry, your house, your uncle's house, we take care of it, we don't need your wages."

"Yes, yes."

Hehe, the surprise is still going on?This is really a big surprise.
