Chapter 973: Hunting Quoll
Boss Yan has a characteristic, he never advises alcohol, but if he really wants to drink, good wine is absolutely full.
Meng Si'an knew about this for a long time, first, he couldn't drink it, and secondly, he ran here just to relax, if he drank it again, it would be boring.
What's more, Yan Fei said that he would take him hunting at night.
Because he came as 'his own person', Yan Fei's hospitality was more bold.
On the table are some of the ingredients prepared, while the main meat dish is a few grilled meats.
Roast kangaroo meat and roast lamb - beef is not very popular in the ranch, mainly because Yan Fei is too generous and eats enough. Over time, everyone gradually used less beef.
Of course, there must still be, but it is no longer based on beef.
A kangaroo leg on the grill is almost ripe at the moment, and it has been cut countless times, but now the seasoning has also been sprinkled, and one leg has become red, which makes people look very appetizing.
After the roasting, Lao Chen and Heizi teamed up to take the leg over, preparing the knife for Yan Fei to do.
Knife technique is not something that can be practiced overnight, especially the kind of knife technique used by Yan Fei, many people in the ranch have had the luxury of expecting it. However, after training, I found that that kind of knife technique was really not something that ordinary people could practice.
The entire leg was held in Yan Fei's hand, and the knife in his hand instantly turned into a ball of light under the light and firelight.
On the plate below, the slices of meat that say that the cicada wings are a bit exaggerated, but the slices of meat that say that the bat wings are too thick fall quickly.
This kind of knife technique is a person, and if you see it once, you have to praise it once. Now Meng Si'an is no exception, eating with a chirp in his mouth, and he doesn't forget to keep talking: "Feige's sword technique, if you are in martial arts, you can break out of the name of a shadowless knife with this." Right?"
"The Shadowless Knife underestimates this knife technique too much, I think I have to be called a sword king or something. "Lao Chen has also learned to shoot on the back, anyway, it doesn't cost money, maybe there are benefits to shooting well.
Besides, now I sit and don't do anything, let others do the work, not to mention doing it so well, even if it is not so good, I have to praise a few words, don't you?
"If this knife method is to kill someone, it is estimated that it will have to be like in the movie, the knife flashes, and then the person's head is still on the neck, and the head will ......have to wait for the head to fall off," Meng Si'an continued.
"That's what I won't tell you, that's what it does. Yan Fei's face recalled.
"Isn't it Brother Fei, have you really done that?" Xiao Meng was a little surprised at the time, watching Yan Fei put down the knife and motioned for them to serve the meat, frowning and looking at the plate of kangaroo meat that looked very good and must be delicious to eat, he didn't stand up.
"Hehe, talking about fun, no one let me try it!" Yan Fei ate a piece of meat before he said with a smile.
Xiao Meng stood up and shouted: "Don't finish dividing it, leave me a copy!"
Coming back with the meat, Xiao Meng ate a few bites and glanced at Yan Fei again and again: "I always feel that your first sentence just now is true...... Forget it, but this meat feels really delicious!"
The younger generation living in a peaceful country has never encountered a war after all. So when you watch the beheading on TV, you don't feel anything, anyway, you know it's fake - it's a little creepy to think about it becoming real.
If you think about it again, the knife method of cutting off the head of this meat slice is that effect, and it will inevitably taste worse. Therefore, it is better to have a good chef's knife method, and the murder knife method has no market in this era.
After a break from eating, everyone started to get busy.
Arriving at the back of the arsenal first, Meng Si'an immediately chose the big guy that Yan Fei had used, and everyone was happy at that time.
Meng Si'an still didn't understand: "What's the matter? Isn't this thing too big? I haven't used it yet, and I've always hoped to have the opportunity to use it." ”
Kuroko explained to him: "You hunt with things, if you encounter a big prey such as a kangaroo, it's okay, if you hunt a rabbit, one shot, three or five catties of rabbits can get back half a catty to eat, it's good." ”
"It's too powerful!" Meng Si'an sighed with a sigh of understanding. "Forget it, I'll come back tomorrow and go out to play during the day! What weapons do you all use?
Lao Chen smiled and said, "Don't compare yourself with Fei Ge, he must still only use a pistol." We can't do it, practice Xiaojiang and their majors are almost good, so it's better to choose a long. ”
"Long is better than short? Meng Si'an muttered, thinking about it for a long time, a little bit unclear. He's playing with overheated weapons, and he's seen both long and short, but it's all an opportunity to get mixed up by a special relationship, that is, someone will tell you about taboos and the like, and give you a general guide, and most of the last memories are how to play, and most of the other things can't be remembered.
Lao Chen loves to show off: "Of course that's the case, you think, the short one is the big palm, it's not easy to aim, only the long one is easy to aim, it's more suitable for you who are not even amateur......s." ”
"You've only been practicing for a few days!" Meng Si'an served Yan Fei, and by the way, he could talk to Heizi, who had been following Yan Fei for a long time, but he despised Lao Chen, a guy who was not black or white before. "I've played at home before......"
"We'll compare that later. Lao Chen didn't scare him, anyway, his restaurant planned to shoot and never go back in the future. Even if you have a good family background, we don't have to be afraid. "A hundred push-ups that lost...... Tomorrow at noon, I will go to the middle of the field in front of the cafeteria, and I will do it in the open space over there. Do you dare?"
"Come on...... Meng Si'an will not lose the battle, and resolutely go up.
Yan Fei answered with a wooden face beside him: "Why don't we compete together?" You can pick any weapons, and I will use two small steel cannons." ”
The two of them laughed at the time and didn't answer him--you can do push-ups at any time if you want, there's no need to bet Yan Fei, isn't it? Sometimes I wonder, just say that Boss Yan came out of a small township, how can he mix up to this point? The key is that he can get started with anything, and he can drive to take off, and obviously he doesn't have a chance to touch these thermal weapons, how can he play so well?
As soon as he came out, he saw Xiao Jiang with a large group of people, if it weren't for the fact that there were only a few leading guys, it would look like he was going to war. Meng Si'an wondered: "Brother Fei, you are so polite now, with so many people, are you going to hunt or fight!"
Yan Fei glared at him angrily, turned his head and asked Xiao Jiang, "What's the matter?"
"Where are you all going?" Xiao Jiang smiled. "Now that there are more people, I take them out to practice and practice, and by the way, let them get familiar with the night environment here. I'm afraid it will affect your hunting, so we'll leave when you're gone. ”
Yan Fei thought for a while: "Let's go to the other side of the mountain, there are more prey over there." You run in other directions, by the way, snake medicine or something, just in case. Also, if there's something going on, give me a signal, and ......"
"It's okay Brother Fei, they haven't been here for a long time, and I'm not a newcomer anymore. Xiao Jiang smiled.
"That's okay, you guys go!" Yan Fei waved his hand.
Xiao Jiang smiled at Yan Fei: "Then Brother Fei, you should also be careful." ”
Turning his head and shouting, the others followed, and went in line.
Only then did Meng Si'an understand what Xiao Jiang and they meant, this was because he was afraid that everyone would go in the same direction, and the prey would be frightened and run away.
The rest are him and Heizi Lao Chen Lao Cui, as well as Yan Fei and the original Lao Chen's gang and the second leopard.
According to Yan Fei's speculation, the second leopard is estimated to have come out of the team before, and later followed Lao Chen for a long time, and it is estimated that he has also experienced some things. It's quite reliable, but I don't like to take care of things, otherwise I can do something else in the ranch.
A few people rode on horses, and Meng Si'an's skills were almost good, but everyone didn't walk fast, he had practiced at home before, and jogging was no problem.
Before leaving, Meng Si'an also asked, "Do you want to bring the hounds, or the two eagles?"
Kuroko explained: "No, our cattle dogs have not been trained yet, there is no problem with herding cattle to watch the field, and they like to bark when hunting, and it is easy to scare away the prey." Those two eagles are even more vegetables, and now they are just able to fly, and they have not even caught a snake. ”
Monsian was silent.
Yan Fei walked in the front, holding a small steel cannon in his hand, and he didn't even have a lamp.
Meng Si'an also learned from the kind of miner's lamp that Lao Chen brought on his head, and the brightness was definitely enough.
After walking for a while, it wasn't until Meng Si'an had asked questions for the twentieth time that Yan Fei reminded them: "It's almost, there is probably something ahead." ”
Meng Si'an looked at everyone and couldn't help asking, "Don't you have to get off the horse?"
"It's okay, the horses are very honest and don't delay. Yan Fei whispered, listening to the words for a while. "Slow down, it feels like it's all little guys. Why can't these things be cleaned up, it is estimated that they came from the other side of the mountain. ”
Monsian couldn't help but get nervous.
Anyway, coming out in this kind of place at night is really not a good experience.
Tonight, there are only stars and no moon in the sky, and you can't see it clearly from a distance. Only a few people's lights can illuminate an area, and when you look elsewhere, it always feels like a dark place, and you may see a big monster pop up at any time.
Just thinking about it, he saw Yan Fei's hand raised, and the small steel cannon with a muffler popped, which startled him at that time: "What's wrong, Brother Fei?"
Yan Fei chuckled: "One gadget, you can just look at it." ”
As he spoke, the second leopard had already skillfully ridden over, and then illuminated a place in front of him with a lamp.
Meng Si'an also followed, only to see a snake rolling in the grass, and most of the snake's head and the middle part of the body were knocked off.
But no one took it.
Monsian continued to ask, "What snake is this?"
The second leopard took a homemade long stick with a hook and a fork that had been prepared earlier, turned the snake over and looked at it, and then explained: "This is the western cobra, which ranks tenth in the world in terms of venom." But this piece has been cleaned up, so why did it suddenly come over?"
Yan Fei thought for a while: "The snake is active this season, and I don't know when it will come over." It's almost over, put it away! Go back and clean up the braised braised ones. ”
"Don't you eat this thing?" Meng Si'an muttered, and then a question came to mind. "Why did the snake of the west come here......? Northeast, right?"
Originally, the people of Sanchahe Township did not have the habit of eating snakes, but when they came here, they saw a lot, killed a lot, and got used to eating and eating.
It's a lot, especially when I first arrived, because the ranch was not very popular for a while, and it became a wildlife world, and you could come across a snake of unknown nature when you walked around. Erbao was interested in these things, and specially studied them, and asked Du Minghui to buy him a few books on snakes, as if he was engaged in research.
Hearing Meng Si'an's question, Yan Fei said straightly: "If you name it in the west, you don't necessarily have to live in the west, right?"
Meng Si'an also felt that he was asking a little stupid, he didn't understand it just now, thinking that this was called a cobra, and it lived in the west.
Kuroko quipped on the side: "A hot dog is not a real dog, and the braised lion head is not a real lion head." ”
While the few people were talking, the second leopard had carefully clamped the snake with the clamp at the lower end of the long stick, and then first put a small bag around the snake's head, pulled the mouth of the bag up, and then put it into a large thick bag.
Yan Fei explained: "I really didn't eat this thing before, but most of the snakes here are poisonous, and if you don't eat it, you have to clean it up, and you can't throw it away." It's better to eat it, it's meat anyway. This thing has strong vitality, and sometimes the head is about to be knocked off and wants to bite, so you have to be careful. ”
Meng Si'an had long known that there were many poisonous snakes here, but he didn't expect to come out to hunt and didn't catch anything, so he hit a snake first. I couldn't help but be afraid: "The loss is to follow you out, otherwise I really wouldn't dare to run around casually." ”
"That's because our ranch is a bit big, and if it's smaller, there are more people, and there will be fewer of these things. Kuroko said beside him.
Back on the road, Yan Fei listened to the slight deviation from the direction and continued to walk forward.
Everyone else was silent, Lao Chen probably wanted to make up for the relationship, and introduced in a low voice: "Follow Feige, hunting is not empty-handed." Fei Ge has this ability, and he can lead everyone to find prey. ”
Sure enough, I didn't go far when I saw a gray guy jumping in the grass. I didn't know how to run when I saw the light, so I looked this way.
Seeing that everyone else was looking at him, Kuroko also reminded: "Hurry up, this is a new rabbit, you are so lucky." ”
Although Meng Si'an didn't understand what a novice rabbit was, he also reacted, and hurriedly raised the weapon, but he sat on the horse and swayed, obviously hopeless.
As soon as the gunshot rang out, the rabbit fell down.
Meng Si'an was excited at that time: "I hit, I hit!
Lao Chen realized that this was really new and tender, and he really didn't need to worry about him: "Obey it!"
Meng Si'an was still excited, and Heizi smiled: "Fei Ge hit, do you think you can hit! I can't do it after practicing for a long time, it's not good to fight on a horse, you have to go to the ground." Next time I see you, hurry up, and then hold it steady. I can't practice Lao Cui now, don't look at this guy and keep silent, he is actually stealing Brother Fei's technique!"
Lao Cui, who had been silent as an invisible man, heard the sunspot talking about him, so he said with a smile: "I just want to try, when can I learn Feige's skills, then I am not afraid of starving to death here." ”
Kuroko laughed at him: "You still want to show off in front of your girlfriends, right?"
Lao Cui waved his hand: "What girlfriends, they are all temporary, few of them go out in this paragraph, and some of them have no contact." I haven't met anyone who can get married, so how can I know if I don't try to find a few more. ”
The second leopard rode over and picked up the rabbit with a hook of the special tool. I got a rope and tied it skillfully, and it hung on the back of the horse.
Meng Si'an knew at a glance that it was estimated that this group of people had come out to hunt. The technology was too skilled, so Meng Si'an didn't know what to do with that strange tool at first.
Now I know that there is a forked snake on it that can hook rabbits, the key is to look at a pole as long as two meters, without any proficiency, it is impossible to do it so easily.
He was not wrong about this, Heizi and Lao Chen were particularly enthusiastic about hunting, Er Leopard almost became their professional bodyguard, and Lao Cui was basically a regular member of the team. When it's okay, these guys, sometimes with a few other people, go out hunting together.
Anyway, there are a lot of prey here, and you can basically get a little bit when you come out.
The main thing is that there is little entertainment, especially since Lao Cui had an accident last time, everyone is even more unhappy to drive around town at night to play - because there is nothing to do there.
"Let's walk a little longer, the sound just now is a little louder, and the little things in several other places are hidden. Yan Fei didn't wait for the second leopard to come back, so he greeted him loudly.
Turning his head and saying regretfully to Meng Si'an, "There are not many opportunities to meet such a new rabbit, and you have wasted it." ”
Kuroko begins to explain to Monsian what the new rabbit is. also explained by the way, the reason why Yan Fei deliberately used a small steel cannon with a muffler - you must know that the muffler was not officially purchased.
Because of the number of hunts, or because of the sunspots, these guys hunt too much...... No, it should be said that there are so many prey that they have released so much that most of the prey encountered now immediately run as far as they can when they hear the roar of weapons.
The prey is not stupid, and he was not afraid of anything before, but now he is bombarded by a few of them, holding weapons for a long time, and the grass blades around him are flying, and the slag is splashing, if he doesn't know how to run, then he is a fool.
And they always have a chance to hit, and after a long time, they will naturally 'train' the prey in this area to be alert.
It's like a rabbit, a rabbit who has never seen a person, that is, the 'newly' rabbit just now, who is still curious when he sees the light, and does not know the danger at all. If it is a rabbit that has been beaten, when it sees the light shining on itself, it immediately runs away.
When I first arrived, the prey was not like this, and basically all the prey was stupid. Especially at night, sometimes the distance is quite close, and the prey does not know how to run.
After hearing this, Meng Si'an no longer felt embarrassed that he had missed the opportunity just now, and felt that you guys were not much better than me. The new rabbit and the original rabbit who can 'train' the rabbit are not something that ordinary people can do.
After running for a while, I didn't see the rabbit or the like, but Yan Fei got another snake.
Kuroko sighed: "The rabbits in the neighborhood are scared away, and it seems that they have to run away." ”
Yan Fei smiled: "Anyway, there is nothing to do tomorrow, Lao Meng, are you tired?
Meng Si'an was full of energy: "Of course I'm not tired, keep walking." I must have a big game today, and at least I will blow it until the New Year when I go back. If I don't get anything, then I didn't come for nothing!"
Yan Fei hehe: "Then don't shout bitterness when you get up tomorrow, go, go to the other side of the mountain and have a look." ”
Everyone understood what Yan Fei meant as soon as they heard it, and they happily patted the horse to follow.
Tomorrow, Xiaomeng will probably know how cool it is for novices to ride horses for a long time!
……
Since Meng Si'an was holding back his strength to fight the big prey, Yan Fei didn't stay longer. The small prey encountered on the road is close to give a moment, and the second leopard's prey picking skills are good, so there is no need to stop and waste time.
In this way, after more than an hour, everyone arrived at the place where there was hope to encounter the big prey, that is, the 'other side of the mountain' as Yan Fei said.
Although the small mine is not large, it is separated by a mountain, and the nearby places are almost all wasteland, so the game is the most. It's just a little far, usually everyone comes out to hunt just for entertainment, this side is a little far, and the number of times you come is less.
It should be noted that now these wastelands are also followed by small mines, surnamed Yan.
So hunt here casually and don't worry about someone coming to disturb you. If you really encounter someone, it's no problem to fight as a prey - without Yan Fei's knowledge, if there is really someone, you can only be regarded as an intruder. Invading other people's private territory at will, and being beaten is called deserved.
When he arrived here, Kuroko reminded in time: "Brother Fei, there should be a few kangaroos here." But now that they're all shrewd, they run away when they hear our movements, or shall we leave the horses behind?"
Meng Si'an was very happy on the side: "Follow a few of you to learn from the shrewd?"
Lao Cui is also happy: "It's true, we have been here several times before, and we have injured one, and we haven't been able to stay." Now the rest are very clever, running when they see people during the day, and running when they hear movement at night. It is estimated that Fei Ge is here today, and there will definitely be a chance. ”
"Yes. Lao Chen also has a lot of confidence in Yan Fei. "Besides, we haven't been here for a few days, so I guess they forgot about ......"
As they spoke, the second leopard and Yan Fei had already found a place to tie the horse, and the second leopard first tied the horse, and then swept around with a stick - there is no fear of anything else to tie the horse here, but afraid of snakes.
Several other people followed and were about to tie their horses, when Yan Fei suddenly whispered: "Don't be silent, there is movement!"
Even the two leopards in the distance immediately stopped sweeping.
Yan Fei reached out and took a lamp, took a few steps towards the foot of the mountain, and stopped: "It's not like a rabbit...... It's like a rat......"
was about to raise his hand to shoot, but suddenly stopped again, and said with a smile: "Big mouse, maybe you can still encounter a strange thing, Lao Meng, you turn off the lights, come here, and get ready to see clearly." ”
A few people cautiously turned off the light and leaned over, only to see that the light in Yan Fei's hand turned on as soon as it brushed the ground.
In the place of the light, a particularly fat rat was staring at this side vigilantly. It was stunned by the sudden light, then turned around and deftly jumped into the grass.
"What is it?" Several people didn't see it clearly, especially the second leopard was far away, and they didn't see anything.
Yan Fei was very proud: "It seems that we have done a good job of protection here, and the quolls are here." ”
"Quoll?" Meng Si'an was stunned.
Yan Fei explained: "This thing is relatively rare, in fact, it is a large mouse. However, the fecundity is not as good as that of rats, and it is one of the few animals worth protecting. ”
The others were still wondering why Yan Fei was so careful, when they heard Yan Fei continue: "This is a good thing, go back and tell some wildlife protection organization, and wait for them to prove that there are really quolls here, at least it can prove that what I said earlier is true." ”
He said before that he bought the mine to protect the natural environment - although the sunspots are quite crazy for hunting, but the prey they usually hunt is flooded, as long as they don't go out of the pasture, in such an area, they can fight casually, absolutely endlessly.
He actually saw it clearly when he didn't turn on the lights just now, so he stopped and didn't shoot. Otherwise, the quoll's life would be dead right now.
It's not that Yan Fei's heart is strong to protect the environment, but that he knows that although quolls are like rats, they are not rats after all, and they are not so strong in fecundity, so they are not so destructive.
The point is, with this thing, it can really prove the need for him to protect the environment - if it is not well protected, how can a quoll come here?
In fact, if you really want to investigate the reason, it is estimated that it is because he killed a lot of wild animals around him, such as wild dogs and snakes, etc., all of which were almost killed by him, and the rest did not dare to move around - after running for so long, he only encountered two snakes, which can already prove his 'achievement'.
Otherwise, small animals like quolls will most likely become food.
But now is not the time to think about this, Yan Fei greeted everyone after speaking: "Don't worry about this for now, let's continue hunting, and strive to let Lao Meng open a ring tonight and kill a kangaroo or something." ”
……
Yan Fei said something a little early, in fact, it wasn't until the second half of the night that Meng Si'an encountered this opportunity.
At that time, a kangaroo was struggling desperately on the ground, and Meng Si'an was standing ten meters away from it, aiming and aiming with his weapon, and finally shot at the urging of several people.
This is a relatively unlucky, miserable kangaroo.
Meng Si'an's first shot only scared it out of half a life, and didn't hit it - this guy overestimated his ability, and he was very excited at first, but when he reached this moment, looking at the miserable appearance of the kangaroo, he was a little unable to do it.
Yan Fei helplessly began to urge: "You hurry up, otherwise it will have to suffer." It wouldn't have survived like this, and if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have broken its leg first......"
That's right, the kangaroo was Yan Fei who broke his leg first, and Meng Si'an had such a chance.
Lao Chen was on the side: "If you don't shoot again, you will replace me, you can also see, how difficult it is for us to find a kangaroo." In addition to Phineas, we don't have many chances of catching kangaroos. When I take it back and take a picture, I can keep a souvenir and brag about it......"
The last half of the sentence stimulated Monsian, and he finally mustered up the courage to make up his mind with a slightly shaky weapon - novices are like this, and it is really not possible to hold the weapon at once.
In the sound of a dozen thumping thumps, the kangaroo was finally lucky enough to be killed by the sharpshooter Meng Si'an.
