Chapter 80: Bear Hunting

The temperature inside the mountain is higher than that outside the mountain, just like the valley where Yao Huang collected medicine before, because it is surrounded by mountains, the temperature here is much warmer than outside, not to mention that the four seasons are like spring, and the coldest time in winter is about zero degrees. The herbs in the valley are growing very well, but Yao Huang didn't pick them, and last time she had already picked all the old herbs, leaving the herbs in the valley to recuperate, and when they flourished again, she would pick them again.

Yao Huang took Yao Qing through this valley because she saw the roe deer running in the direction of this valley just now. When hunting, Yao Huang was too lazy to use his divine sense, because doing so would lack the fun of hunting.

There was a rustling sound in the grass, and Yao Qing immediately hit the arrow on the bow, and his eyes burst out with a sharp light. Suddenly, his hand loosened, and a sharp arrow flew out, as if it had hit. Yao Qing hurriedly jumped out of the grass and took out a hare with an arrow in the neck from the grass, about four or five catties.

"Second sister, the grass and trees in this valley are flourishing, and the rabbits are not hungry and thin, they have all grown fat." Yao Qing was very happy, he used to shoot arrows with a target, and it was dead, this was the first time he shot a living thing, and he hit it all at once. No wonder he was proud.

"Then you can play more." Yao Huang said, "Rabbit skin makes you a hat." ”

"No, I'm not small, I don't need to wear a hat." Yao Qing shook his head, "And I want to hunt roe deer and wolves, and I can't always circle around hares and pheasants." ”

"Then I wish you those two things." Yao Huang paused and said, "Langpi is good for hats and vests. ”

"The wolf's hair can be used as a brush. The brother-in-law said that the wolf pen is stronger than the sheep's pen, and it is suitable for writing and painting, but it is a pity that it is more expensive than the sheep's pen. I beat a wolf. Make a dozen or twenty wolf pen, enough for me and my brother-in-law to use. ”

Yao yellow and black line. "Little brother, there is no knowledge. You have to have common sense; If you don't have common sense, you have to know how to hide it. The wolf's pen is made of weasel hair, not the hair of a wolf that eats people. ”

"Huh? Is that so? Hehe, I don't know! Yao Qing scratched his hair in embarrassment, and suddenly pointed to the side and said, "Roe deer!" I saw the roe deer. ”

Yao Qing rushed out, and the roe deer in the jungle was startled by Yao Qing's roar, and ran into the depths of the jungle with four hooves. Yao Qing didn't let it run anymore, and chased after it with a light bow. While running, the bow has been drawn. I heard a whoosh, and the feather arrows flew out like thunder.

Yao Huang found a big stone and sat down and waited, and sure enough, it didn't take too long for Yao Qing to return with a roe deer with an arrow in his abdomen. The body length of the roe deer is about one meter, two or three, and it has short horns on its head. This is a roe deer of a male.

"It's heavy." Yao Qing let go of his hand and threw the roe deer on the ground, "Second sister." This robe weighs more than 100 pounds, right? ”

Yao Huang grabbed the neck of the roe deer and rubbed it, "More than that, at least one hundred and forty catties." ”

"No wonder I'm so tired from dragging!" Yao Qing said, "Sister." This robe has been enough for us for a long time, let's go home! ”

Your roe deer has been hunted, but my bear's paws have not yet been hunted!

"There's no hurry. Let's take another turn, and it's rare to go up the hill once. After a while. It's colder and the animals certainly won't come out for activities. It's hard to crack the prey. ”

"However, this roe deer is so heavy, if we carry it, it will affect our movements." Yao Qing was embarrassed.

"It's okay, I'll carry it." After Yao Huang finished speaking, he grabbed the roe deer and threw it into his special basket. The basket was stuffed all at once, but I didn't feel much weight on my back.

"Sister, don't you think it's heavy?" Yao Qing said that his second sister was stronger than the most powerful man in the village.

Yao Huang bared his teeth, "Sister, my martial arts are stronger than yours, and my internal strength is higher than yours, these hundred catties are very heavy for you, but they are not trivial to me." ”

Yao Qing was deeply shocked, and the pride of the roe deer he had just hunted was gone. My dear sister, is it your daily pleasure to hit me?

Yao Huang sprinkled some special medicinal powder around the basket to hide the bloody atmosphere. The roe deer's wound had long since frozen, but it still smelled faintly bloody. The powder masks the smell of blood, and in doing so, it doesn't attract wild beasts. Although she is not afraid of wild beasts, with Yao Qing by her side, she must consider her brother's safety.

"Let's go!" The two of them continued to wander around the valley, and after half a day's work, Yao Qing harvested three hares and two pheasants. In the evening, the two men walked out of the valley and followed the woods to a small cabin in the mountains. This house has been built for a long time, and it was originally a place for hunters to rest, but for many years this small cabin has been abandoned for a long time because few people go into the inner mountains to hunt. Some time ago, after the men in the village learned martial arts, they dared to go into the inner mountains to hunt, and Zhao Dali led people to cultivate, so that the people who went into the mountains to hunt had a place to stay.

Entering the cabin and putting their things down, the two of them took a closer look at the cabin. The wooden house is not small, almost 30 square meters in size, and the floor is covered with animal skins of not very good quality. On one side of the house, an earthen stove was built, and a small iron pot was placed on the side, which was convenient for the people who stayed there to make a fire to warm up and cook. There is a small wooden cabinet on the other side, open the cabinet door, there is a quilt on the lowest floor, two wooden basins and a few bowls, a pair of chopsticks and a few spoons in the middle layer, and some spices on the top layer. These are all prepared by the people in the village.

"Xiaoqing, you go chop some firewood, pay attention, don't go far." Yao Huang instructed her younger brother, and she herself carried a basin and collected a basin of water from the tree and put it in an iron pot.

Yao Qing quickly brought back enough firewood, plus the original firewood in the house, enough to burn it for one night.

Yao Huang first boiled a pot of hot water and asked his younger brother to wash up. The rest of the water. Cut a few slices of ginger and threw it in, and put some brown sugar in it, brown sugar ginger soup is the most able to ward off the cold, as long as you drink a bowl, the body can be warmed up immediately.

One person drank a bowl of brown sugar ginger soup, and Yao Huang began to prepare dinner. Commanding Yao Qing to clean up a son and a pheasant, Yao Huang stewed the rabbit and chop it, because he wanted to stay in the mountain, during Yao Qing's hunting of wild things, Yao Huang dug up a piece of yam. The pheasant did not pluck its feathers, but directly put it in the fire with mud to make it called a chicken.

Eating fragrant chicken and drinking thick broth, the fatigue of the two of them for the day was eliminated.

After eating, Yao Qing wrapped himself in a quilt and fell on the animal skin mattress to rest, Yao Huang made a tour of the neighborhood, arranged a few small defensive formations, and returned to the wooden house. Inside the house, Yao Qing was already asleep. Yao Huangyu pointed out his wedding sleeping hole, so that he could sleep until dawn the next day, and he left the cabin. Wolves howled faintly in the distance, but they couldn't get close to the cabin, and the protective formation outside the house could confuse their sights and ears, so that they couldn't detect the existence of the cabin. The formation set up by Yao Huang is not temporary, but long-term, and if someone stays in the cabin in the future, they don't have to worry about the safety of the night anymore - although they themselves don't know the way and will still be on guard, their safety is really not a problem.

Following the traces found during the day, Yao Huang was already fantasizing about the taste of bear's paws. Because it didn't snow anymore, the traces left by a large animal had not been erased, and Yao Huang chased after her, and finally found her prey in a cave. This is an Asiatic black bear, not very large, more than 300 pounds. Yao Huang carefully observed this black bear, not a pregnant female bear, not a cub, not even a young and strong male bear, this black bear that was already aging. Because of their age, predation is not as easy as that of young black bears, and there is relatively little food, so they are so hungry that they can't stand it and run out to forage for food.

Looking at the black bear that was slapped on the ground by her, Yao Huang smiled silverly.

Yao Qing slept until dawn, stretched comfortably, got up to look for his sister, and found that Yao Huang was no longer in the house, Yao Qing opened the door, and then immediately closed the door. Hold your hands on your chest to soothe the frightened heart, Nima, what did he see? A black bear with teeth and claws, shouldn't they hibernate at this time? By the way, what about the second sister? You won't be hurt by this black guy, will you? Thinking of this possibility, Yao Qing's anger and worry overcame that trace of fear, he clenched the big bow, wound the arrow, slammed the door open, and the three arrows flew back from the string and shot at the black bear outside the house. Three balls of blood burst out of the black bear's body, and three arrows, one into the black bear's left eye, one into the black bear's throat, and one into the black bear's heart. In anger and panic, people are the most explosive. I heard the black bear scream and fell to the ground heavily.

"Wow, little brother, you are so powerful, you actually killed a bear." Yao Huang turned out from the back of the wooden house with an exaggerated expression of amazement, holding a bundle of firewood in his hand.

"Second sister, you're not injured?" Yao Qing ran over and asked with concern, not having time to look at his prey.

"I, of course not hurt. I just went out to look for firewood, and there is not much firewood in the wooden house, so I will prepare more for the people who will rest here later. As soon as I returned, I saw you hunting a black bear. Brother, you are much more powerful than Brother Dali and Second Brother Li, they are killing wolves, you can actually kill bears. Strong, strong! Yao Huang smiled and praised his brother, making him smugly ignore why the black bear would wait motionless for him to shoot an arrow. Yao Huangyin smiled, little brother, the task of being in the limelight is handed over to you, sister, I can make a fortune in a muffled voice.

"Second sister, although this black bear is not big, why is it three or four hundred pounds? How do we bring it back? Yao Qing grabbed her hair and asked happily and worriedly, the second sister can carry a hundred catties of roe deer, and the third or four hundred catties of black bear, the second sister can't carry it, right?
