Chapter 42: The Hunt
Lan Dad and Lan Ma didn't return to China until the eleventh day of the first month, and Cheng Wu's family also arranged the holiday with them, so there was plenty of time, so after Chiyo and Serena joined, the manor became even more lively.
Of course, Lady Serena is also completely conquered by Qiuqiu and Little Kim, and may find various reasons to visit the little raccoon on the farm in the future, so that she can laugh so much that she loses her manners.
Hunting in the mountains was arranged by Lan Jiawei in one day, it was cold in the wild, and it was not possible to camp, I didn't care, and others were afraid that they couldn't stand it. Lan Ma and Yao Fen are not interested, and they are watching the house at home; Dad Lan and Cheng Wei both came with great interest, and Dad Lan bragged at his son with a shotgun: "I think I was a militia in the village at the beginning, and you kid may not be as good as me when it comes to playing with guns."
Lan Jiawei carried a semi-automatic rifle on his back and brought out the recurve bow, Cheng Wu carried his favorite sniper rifle, Cheng Wei followed to play soy sauce and was too lazy to ask for a gun, so he was forced into a small pistol by Chiyo for self-defense. Chiyo and Serena are both each with a shotgun, wearing hunting outfits that show off their figures, and they look really like that.
According to Xue Ling's prompt before, Lan Jiawei walked in the direction of the laboratory for a while, and then led everyone to another fork in the road.
Although it was winter, Lan Jiawei still pulled out a mud plutar on his waist and opened the way in front. After walking for about 2 kilometers, Lan Jiawei finally found traces of wild boar feces and other traces, and there were also marks of wild boars rubbing on the surrounding trees. He waved his hand to the people who were following him.
Due to the subtle transformation of the Moon Spring, the physical strength of several people is improving unconsciously, and Serena is estimated to be a regular exerciser, with great physical strength, and all of them can keep up with Lan Jiawei. Seeing him signal, they all squatted down, and Cheng Wu observed: "There are traces of animals", and Serena also nodded and agreed: "It's a wild boar."
After everyone had their guns ready just in case, Lan Jiawei felt it, followed the traces for a while, and then motioned for everyone to squat down again, and then pointed his finger ahead. A few people followed the direction he pointed, and more than 300 meters away, there was indeed a very strong male wild boar with a small group of wild boars wandering around, looking for some fallen leaves and what remained under the soil to eat.
Lan Jiawei gently pulled Cheng Wei behind a tree, "Sister Wei, just hide here and watch, don't make a sound", Cheng Wei nodded with excited eyes.
Cheng Wu often goes hunting in China, Lan Jiawei is not worried about him, he glanced at Lan Dad, he has already added the gun to a small mound, and his posture is very standard. Cheng Wu has also set up Bartlet, and Serena is certainly not far behind. Only Chiyo looked a little unbearable, still watching and not moving.
Lan Jiawei stepped forward and hugged his fiancée: "They will destroy the crops on the farm in the future, and it will not work if you don't kill them", Chiyo nodded, did not speak, but also took down the shotgun he was carrying.
The first to shoot was Cheng Wu, who hit the head of the biggest boar beautifully, worthy of being a person who played with a shotgun, but the boar did not die immediately, rushed to this side for many steps, and was shot by Cheng Wu again before falling to the ground.
Serena killed one of the other two boars that followed the leader's charge. Dad Lan was almost there, he shot several times but only broke the skin, and the other wild boar rushed closer and closer, and Lan Jiawei was about to shoot with a bow and arrow, and the pig had already fallen to the ground under the random guns of Cheng Wu, Serena and Chiyo.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the other wild boars turned and fled, running farther into the forest.
When it was over, Lan Jiawei applauded: "Wow, uncle is amazing, so is Serena, dad, you still have to practice again."
Cheng Wu proudly packed up Bartlet: "This gun is so good, the one used in China is a burning stick"
Chiyo was translating what Lan Jiawei said in Chinese with Serena, and Serena smiled and shook her head after listening: "Knight, you didn't show the skills you should have", not paying attention to the roll of Chiyo's eyes after listening.
Lan Jiawei smiled slightly, did not speak, but pretended to call Adams and asked them to help move a few wild boars back, and then squeezed his eyes at Chiyo. The crowd didn't pay attention to them at this time, and they were happily taking pictures with the three wild boars that had fallen to the ground.
Wait for them to be busy, let everyone move freely, don't go too far, Lan Dad, Cheng Wu, and Cheng Wei together; Serena and Chiyo went into the forest in two directions to continue their hunting. Lan Jiawei saw that they were all far away, so he loaded the 3 wild boars into the ring space.
He did not chase them, felt the breath of the animals, went a little farther, killed two hares and a few pheasants with his bow and arrows, and saw that the time was almost afternoon, and returned to the place where everyone had parted.
The hares and pheasants were skillfully skinned and gutted, some dry branches were found, and a fire was set up and roasted. Since it is located in a glade, it is not a small glade, so there is no fear of causing a fire.
When everyone came back one after another, they all had some small gains, Cheng Wu beat a hare, and Lan Dad was empty-handed. Serena only caught a pheasant on her side, and on the way back, she kept complaining that Chiyo was too kind, and a hare was scared away by her.
Seeing Lan Jiawei leisurely nibbling on chicken legs, everyone was speechless. Although they all ate some dry food, they couldn't help the fragrant fragrance, and took the game handed by Lan Jiawei one by one and ate it. Even Chiyo ate hare meat, and he regretted letting go of such a delicious thing.
Although Serena hunted, she had never eaten hare meat, and now she was grilled by Lan Jiawei, and she thought it was really delicious.
After eating and drinking, Lan Jiawei pulled Cheng Wu and Serena, who still wanted to hunt, carefully disposed of the fire, and went back together.
Back at home, while everyone was chatting and packing up their prey, Lan Jiawei found a marginal area and took out the corpses of the wild boars and put them away. After asking Lan Ma to come and see it, she felt that she couldn't finish eating, so she went to inform Adams of them, and it happened to be one on the side of the farm and ranch.
When the farmer and the cowboy carried the two smaller ones away, Lan Jiawei did not use the knife in the ring, but used the knife bought from the town to dismember the big wild boar, and Cheng Wu and Lan Dad had already walked over at this time.
Cheng Wu was a little surprised to see his nephew skillfully carrying the knife: "Xiao Wei, when did you practice this hand, it's really skilled"
"Oh, uncle, don't I still have a ranch, go to a slaughterhouse to learn, it's easier in the future"
The Chinese eat differently than the Americans, and the wild boar can be used all over its body, so it ends up with several large barrels of meat and offal.
At dinner, Chiyo and Serena were full of praise as they ate the braised pork and stir-fried pork loin made by Blue Ma.
Serena was the most exaggerated: "I didn't expect the parts of the wild boar to be so delicious, it was such a waste before", everyone else ate with a mouthful of oil, and did not reply, they all nodded "mm-hmm" in agreement.
Because even a wild boar has too many ingredients, it is difficult to fit in the refrigerator, so I have to cheapen Qiuqiu and Xiaojin and two dogs. Kim has been able to glide for a short time recently, and it won't be long before he soars into the blue sky. Since Lan Jiawei had also given Qiuqiu, Xiaojin, and the two dogs diluted Moon Spring water, several animals were now full of vitality.
As for the aura that the two dogs themselves have, Lan Jiawei plans to find a time to go to the ranch in Montana to see what is going on, so as to solve the doubts in his heart. (Note: This is just a tribute to a certain farming book called "XX Ranch", which is used as a cameo, not as the main line)
