Chapter 93: Learning the Arts

"Comrade Pegatron misunderstood, I don't believe it, but I can't believe it, none of us in these ten miles and eight villages have such good skills as comrade you, if anyone knows how to hunt, it will be as if it is twenty-five or eighty thousand, and he will not teach others this skill, where is he as good as you and hunt for everyone to eat. ”

As soon as Fu Xiaojian finished speaking, the black boy lowered his head shyly before meeting, and the dark skin on his face turned suspiciously red.

"Don't be embarrassed, what I said is true"

"I'm a party member today, so I won't be like them. ”

Taking advantage of the fact that the simple kid didn't understand his routine, Fu Xiaojian hurriedly struck while the iron was hot,

"Since you have stood at the height of party members, are you willing to teach me?"

"Absolutely. But he was not sure what he said, turned his head to look at his platoon commander and asked uncertainly,

"It should be possible, platoon commander?"

"Hehehe, silly boy, of course it's fine, I really don't know how to repay their help. ”

Looking at the conversation between Changshuo's brother and uncle, Xing Youqian was also amused in his heart, and couldn't help laughing, it's really good, so that he can also learn a few tricks, and when he grows up, he can hunt pheasants for his sister to eat, and the eldest brother will definitely be very happy.

Changshuo and Wang Sheng said goodbye and took this big one to a bush, this land is quite flat, there are no big trees, only the kind of very low bushes or thorns, the grass on the ground is very lush, some of them are dry somehow, it is some hay, the morning sun is obliquely reflected, as if giving new vitality to everything on the ground. The wind blew gently with a slight coolness, blowing away the slightest heat from climbing the mountain. Xing Youqian sat on the haystack, sniffing the small pink flowers in the grass in front of him.

His little nose moved, and the fragrance made him feel refreshed, with a smile on his face, and his eyes were crooked with a smile, and his big black eyes looked bright in the sunlight.

"Ah, it smells so good. ”

As soon as he said this, a large bird flew up in the bushes, and Xing Youqian fell into the haystack.

"Ah, there are birds, such big birds. ”

Fu Xiaojian smiled, "Silly boy, that's a magpie." ”

Pegatron took out a hemp rope from his bag and held the loop in his hand.

"Guess what's there to eat in this field?"

"Bird," Xing Youqian replied with great interest.

"What else?"

"Pheasant, seen in the morning. ”

"That's smart. Changshuo stroked the little man's shaggy hair, "Actually, there are a lot of animals here, but we can't see them." ”

"Really, there are wild boars, if there are wild boars, it's really amazing, how long does it take to eat it, hahahaha. Fu Xiaojian couldn't help but open his imagination, and even the fragrance of the wild boar had already smelled the fragrance.

"Comrade Pegatron, let's start, start early, and go back with a lot of food, my mother must praise me this time. ”

"Don't worry, we're going to stay here for a while, let's start with the basics. Changshuo said as he walked around the field, picking up something on the ground and sniffing it, then fiddling with a stick in the grass.

I don't understand what this person is doing all this for.

"Brother Changshuo, what are you doing here?"

"I, Ah, I am observing the traces of the animals in the vicinity, and you can see that the grass on this road is all falling to one side, and the traces are a little wider, indicating that this may be the usual route of the hares in the vicinity, and we are not afraid that we will not catch them if we set a trap on the road. Come and see for yourselves. ”

"This is really different from the grass next to it, hey, what's over there?" Fu Xiaojian saw a bunch of black things not far from the trace, which he had never seen before.

Pegatron looked in the direction of Fu Xiaojian's finger, and laughed,

"Guess what it is, you can smell it. ”

Fu Xiaojian couldn't guess it after watching it for a long time, so he had to grab a handful and put it under the tip of his nose and sniffed.

"Why does it smell of grass?"

Seeing that this person really picked it up and smelled it, Changshuo said with a smile,

"It's rabbit-pulled excrement, and of course it smells of grass. ”

"It turns out that the rabbit excrement is like this, round, and I must give it to the little sister when I go back. Xing Youqian completely ignored his uncle's embarrassed face, and looked at the particles that his uncle hurriedly threw on the ground with a glowing face.

"Today I want to foot you a very useful, very effective, and very convenient thing, as long as you can do it well, as long as you can hunt with this, that is, -------- sling. Changshuo looked at the two people in front of him with excitement and admiration in his eyes, and he was very proud, cleared his throat and continued,

"The slings are also the most suitable for you at the moment, for example, the rabbit, as long as you set the slings where it passes, you just have to wait patiently, and there will be results in less than two days. Of course, there are disadvantages to this method, it can't catch large animals, and not every trap is guaranteed to be rewarding, but if the skills are mastered well, the chances are definitely much greater, so I have to do a few more when I set up traps. Now, let's look for the tools we need, including sticks, resilient branches, and branches that grow forks. ”

After Pegatron's explanation, he obediently went to find the tools he needed, and he had no emotion at all, only obedient obedience and humble learning.

In this life, Fu Xiaojian has not had a few meals to eat, let alone meat, even if it is the New Year, he can only see a few oil stars. And he is in the prime of life, and if he does a little work, his stomach will be very hungry, especially this year, many times he is so hungry that his eyes are dizzy, and his mother gave him all the sweet potatoes in his bowl in order to take care of him. If he can learn Changshuo's skills, he must let his mother and himself eat meat three times a day.

This hunting game makes Xing Youqian a little excited, this is so fun, not only does he not have his brother to supervise him every day, but he can also set traps everywhere to catch those invisible animals, like the advanced version of hide and seek. Every day he went up the mountain and learned the craft from Pegatron, his eyes lit up with excitement, and he could easily see where there were traces of animal activity, how long ago it had been. It was easy to grasp the best place to set the trap, and even Fu Xiaojian couldn't catch up.

"The little one was nice. Pegatron looked at the little kid who smiled and squinted at his compliment, and liked it very much.

"As a bonus, I'll teach you how to skin rabbits in their entirety in a few days. ”

"Why do you want to skin the little rabbit, it's so pitiful, don't be good~" Xing Youqian pouted and looked at Changshuo pitifully.

"It's really stupid to say that you are stupid, rabbit skins can not only be sold for money, but also can be made into clothes and shoes in winter. He doesn't want to learn, you teach me, I learn. ”

Fu Xiaojian pulled his nephew behind him and stood in front of Changshuo, eager to start learning from now on.

Thinking that Xing Youqian was still so young, Changshuo also gave up his plan to ask him to learn this craft, anyway, the platoon commander hinted that he would teach them well, and he didn't say that he had to be able to do both, so he nodded, which was considered to be an agreement.
