Chapter 0049 Set off towards the old mountain loop

After the Chinese New Year, throughout the second and third months of the lunar calendar, Wang Zheng was busy collecting scorpions, and in two months, he brought more than 8,000 yuan of income to his family. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

In 1992, it was unthinkable for an eight-year-old child to make so much money in just two months.

However, this is a very easy thing for an eight-year-old guy who has a soul twenty-five years ahead of his time in his body.

Seeing that his father was a little embarrassed, Wang Zheng vigorously instructed him not to publicize the matter of catching scorpions and making a lot of money by himself. Wang Xiangzhong readily agreed, his understanding was that it would be a pity to let others know that this business was so profitable, and let others rob it. However, Wang Zheng's real intention was not this, what he was thinking about was the matter of his sister's superbirth fine five months later.

The fine for overbirth is calculated based on the income of each family, and if the team knew that Wang Zheng's family had done such a lucrative business this year, the amount of the fine would definitely be very large. However, he didn't explain to his father in detail, anyway, as long as his father did what he wanted, as for letting his father know that he was so thoughtful, it made his father feel faceless.

However, there were a lot of scorpions collected for two months in a row, and in the third month, Wang Zheng collected a lot fewer scorpions. In the fourth month of the lunar calendar, the weather begins to get hotter day by day, and the work of catching scorpions in the mountains is getting harder and harder, and there are fewer and fewer friends who plan to do this work.

Wang Zheng didn't feel any regrets because of the decrease in his income, after all, there are so many scorpions on the mountain, if he let his friends catch them all, there will be no more in the future. Besides, you can't make much money by counting on collecting scorpions, after all, you are still a child, and playing is the most important thing.

In April, the rain in the mountains gradually increased, and the vegetation on the mountains gradually became green. Wang Zheng's eagle has been almost trained, and his dog "white hair" is already the size of an adult dog. Wang Zheng decided to take his dog and eagle to the west to explore the old mountain loop.

When he told Yang Ming and Ma Nianzhuang about this idea, the eyes of the two children flashed with excitement.

You must know that the old mountain loop in the west of Taohualing Village is a mysterious and exciting place for children.

In the past, when the village had not confiscated the shotgun, in April, when the fields were not busy, some villagers would go back to Laoshantao to try their luck, and some villagers would bring back a 100-pound wild boar, which was really eye-catching.

Not to mention the big wild boar, the rabbits in the old mountain set of Xishan are much fatter than those around Taohualing Village, and if you go there, the harvest will definitely be indispensable.

However, for a long time, adults have strictly forbidden children to wander around the old mountain set. Because, it is said that there are many wild wolves in the old mountain loop, and if the children are allowed to encounter them, it will be troublesome.

However, the more frightened the adults became, the more curious the children became.

In his previous life, Wang Zheng never had the opportunity to explore in the old mountain loop when he was a child, and when he grew up and was busy with his studies, he had no possibility of going. Later, I joined the work by myself, and occasionally went to my hometown, but I was also busy meeting classmates and visiting relatives, and there was no possibility of exploring the old mountain loop.

Going to the old mountain loop to take a look has become more and more a wish in Wang Zheng's heart.

On the first weekend of April, the wind and the sun were beautiful, the weather was very good, Wang Zheng, Yang Ming and Ma Nianzhuang carried a kettle, carried dry food, each led a dog, and Wang Zheng also brought his own "Xiaoqing", and then each told his family that he was playing with his classmates for two days, and then quietly embarked on the road to Laoshantao.

Along the path on the mountain west of Taohualing Village, the three of them walked west for more than half an hour, climbed the highest SX mountain around Taohualing Village, and stood on the top of the cliff of Hades' Nose.

"The woods over there are so dense." Wang Zheng looked far away and saw that he crossed the village where his grandmother's house was located along the mountain range, and there were no two hills to the west, which was the old mountain loop. Inside the old mountain set, mountain after mountain, set after set, all trees that have grown for hundreds of years.

"Brother Zheng, what if we really meet a wild wolf?" Ma Nianzhuang subconsciously touched a watermelon knife of more than twenty centimeters in his pocket with his hand.

Yang Ming also stared blankly ahead, not speaking, not knowing what was going on in his heart.

"Afraid of what? There are often people in this old mountain set, and I have never heard of any wolves, if there are wild wolves, they are all single wild wolves, we have three dogs, and we are afraid of one wolf? "Wang Zheng is obviously a little overconfident.

After listening to Wang Zheng's words, Ma Nianzhuang seemed to have confidence in his heart. The dog he led was the strongest in the village, and Wang Zheng's dog was not small, and although Yang Ming's dog was a little shorter than the two of them, it looked very strong.

At this time, Yang Ming suddenly said in a daze: "The wild wolf is too big, let's better not run into it." ”

When Wang Zheng heard this, he hurriedly turned his head to look at him and asked, "Have you ever seen a wild wolf?" ”

Yang Ming shook his head.

"You haven't seen a wild wolf, so how do you know that a wild wolf is big?" Ma Nianzhuang asked disdainfully.

"I've seen the pit of the wolf." Yang Ming paused, then gestured with his hand and said, "Such a big pit." ”

Seeing the pit that Yang Ming was drawing, Ma Nianzhuang opened his mouth, and said after a long time: "Such a big pit, how big is this wild wolf, isn't it bigger than my rhubarb?" ”

"Forget it, let's not worry about this, let's go inside, and we'll be back tomorrow night, where can we get so good luck and meet wild wolves?" Wang Zheng urged everyone to set off.

Among the three people, only Yang Ming followed his brother to Laoshantao once, so he naturally became a guide.

In this old mountain set, there are many huts where the rangers live, just in the corners of the mountain forest. Yang Ming knew the location of one of them, and the three of them planned to stay there tonight.

The geographical location of the old mountain set is sandwiched between Luzhong City and Taishan City, but this piece of mountain forest is not under the management of the two prefectures and cities, and this land belongs to the Lianhuashan Forest Farm. The area of the Lotus Mountain Forest Farm is one or two hundred miles, all of which are mountain forests, and there are more than 20 forest rangers in the forest farm. Every year, during the drought and fire-prone season, rangers live in the mountains and forests to guard against accidents. However, in the fourth and fifth months of the lunar calendar, after the rain becomes more abundant, the mountains and forests are damp, and the forest rangers do not live in the mountains and forests.

Each ranger's hut has some firewood and stoves inside to make it easy for passers-by.

Wang Zheng and the others crossed the top of the West Mountain and continued to walk westward, and the road became more and more difficult to walk.
