For more than half a month after that, Wei Yan was focused on the white fox.

As usual, he sprinkled chestnuts in the places where it frequented, determined to catch it.

However, this white fox has already suffered a loss, and if he is vigilant, he will not fall for it easily.

Once Wei Yan was lying in the snow, the white fox appeared from a distance, it looked around for a while, as if it hadn't found anything, and then carelessly dug out a chestnut from the ground.

Wei Yan was full of joy, and waited for it to eat the chestnut, and then step by step into his trap.

Unexpectedly, the white fox stepped on its paws, and then swaggered away.

It seemed to know that Wei Yan was watching it nearby, so it walked very slowly, deliberately holding its head high, and the angry Wei Yan almost jumped out of the snow.

In this way, Wei Yan was also ruthless, and vowed not to give up if he didn't catch this white fox.

Finally, one day, Wei Yan found its cave, and he lit a wet firewood by the cave.

Wet wood is not easy to burn, but the smoke is very large, it is a blue-gray smoke, and there is a smoky and unpleasant smell.

Soon the cave was filled with smoke, but there was no movement for a while.

"If I hadn't seen you go in, I'd probably think you're not inside." A sinister smile welled up on Wei Yan's face, "I'll see how long you can survive." ”

Wei Yan stopped fanning the smoke into the cave, but there was no wind today, and the smoke dispersed very slowly.

When the green smoke at the entrance of the cave dissipated, there was still a lot of smoke coming out of the cave slowly.

At first glance, it looks like the cave is on fire.

Wei Yan didn't relax for a moment, waiting quietly.

After a while, smoke gushed out of the cave, and a shadow swiped and burst out of the hole.

"Hey, I still want to run!" Wei Yan had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

A large cloth bag is used under the hood.

Wei Yan clenched his pockets and tied a knot at the bottom.

The white fox rushed left and right in his pocket, struggling desperately, and let out a rapid "squeak" sound.

Wei Yan gave it a slap, "To be honest, my brother has already said that no matter how cunning the fox is, he can't fight the old hunter, and after tossing me for so many days, you can resign yourself to fate." ”

The fox slapped Wei Yan, and suddenly wilted, motionless.

"It's not going to die." Wei Yan shook the cloth bag, but the fox had not reacted.

"This little thing, still pretend to be with me!" Wei Yancai didn't care whether it was dead or alive, all he wanted was this fox skin, and it didn't matter if he was dead or not.

Wei Yanzhi proudly went to find Gao Shun.

At this moment, Gao Shun is laying a trap elsewhere and digging traps.

It is impossible for both of them to be consumed on this fox, there must be someone to work, otherwise the prey will not be hit, and the fox will not be able to catch it, so it will have to drink the northwest wind.

Today, Qingqing also came with him and gave Gao Shun a hand.

When she saw Wei Yan coming, she happily picked up a hare and ran to Wei Yan and said, "Brother Wei Yan, you see we caught a fat rabbit." ”

Wei Yan touched her head and said approvingly: "Yes, let's eat rabbit meat tonight." ”

Qingqing listened to Wei Yan's words and laughed happily.

"Brother Wei Yan, have you caught the fox?" Qingqing asked curiously.

"Look." Wei Yan put the cloth bag in front of Qingqing and shook it, "It's in the bag." ”

"Brother Wei Yan, can I take a look?" Qingqing blinked her eyes wide, looking at Wei Yan with a look of hope.

"Okay." Wei Yan opened a small opening of the cloth bag.

Qingqing picked up the mouth of the cloth bag and looked down.

"Wow, that's beautiful!"

"Brother Wei Yan, why doesn't it move? Is it dead? ”

"No, the fox is cunning, it's pretending to be dead and wants to take the opportunity to escape." Wei Yan said.

"Ah, how bad a fox is!"

"Can I touch it, then?"

"Okay, but you have to be careful, the fox bites, and if you let it bite, it will become a vixen. Does Qingqing want to become a vixen? ”

Qingqing's half-stretched hand retracted suddenly, shivered, and shook her head vigorously: "I still don't touch it, I don't want to become a fox spirit." ”

"Did you really catch that white fox?" At this time, Gao Shun also came over.

"Look." Wei Yan showed the cloth bag to Gao Shun again, and his face was a little proud.

Gao Shun looked at it, gave a thumbs up, and said with some admiration: "Wei Yan, you are so powerful, you can even catch a fox that has been frightened once." ”

"Small." Wei Yan said with a smile.

"Why is it a little dark?" Gao Shun was a little puzzled.

"Oh, I'll choke it out of the cave with a cigarette, and I'll take it back later, peel it off, and wash it in water." Wei Yan said.

The white fox seemed to be stimulated by Wei Yan's words, and jumped up from the state of pretending to be dead, wanting to escape from the small opening opened by Wei Yan.

However, Wei Yan had already guarded against it, and before it could jump out, he clenched his pockets tightly.

The white fox is very smart, it knows that it can't escape this time no matter what, and struggles desperately.

But no one took pity on it anymore, and no matter how much it struggled, the bag never opened again until it was exhausted.

A few days later, after finding a good weather, Wei Yan, Gao Shun and Qingqing entered the city again.

This time they went into the city to sell things and buy things.

Seeing that it is approaching the end of the year, Jiuyuan City is more lively than before, there are more people buying things, and there are more people selling things, but there are more people who join in the fun.

There are also those in the city and those on the outskirts of the city, and after eating, they all take advantage of the excitement of the year before to come out and take a look.

Many places are crowded, and some big girls and daughters-in-law who don't go out of the door on weekdays also take this opportunity to come out to buy new clothes for the New Year.

The city is full of small vendors setting up stalls, and bargaining can be heard everywhere.

"Yo, Wei boy, Gao boy, you haven't been here for a while." An old man selling bamboo baskets greeted Wei Yan and Gao Shun.

The old man was dressed in tatters, his clothes were a little thin, and he leaned on a big tree to bask in the sun, looking at the passers-by with interest.

The bamboo basket at this time is not easy to sell, maybe he can't sell one a day, but what he wants is a lively, he can say hello to acquaintances, gossip a few words, and today is a harvest.

"Uncle Sun, you came early enough, how is the business?" Wei Yan also asked with a smile.

"Hey, what kind of business is my little thing, I can sell it for one or two dollars, and I will be satisfied with some rice bran to eat."

"Old things, people are not old, they came early in the morning, and they looked at the big girls and little daughters-in-law who passed by, and they flowed all over the place." The bun seller next to him laughed.

"Hey, you who sell human meat buns, you know that you abuse my old man, I'm this age, just give me a woman, do I still have the strength?" Old man Sun shook his gray beard and scolded back.

"Oops~ You old thing, what kind of human meat buns, this is not nonsense!" The owner of the steamed bun seller hurriedly said, for fear that others would listen to it and affect his business.

"Uncle Baozi, what are you afraid of, your bun doesn't even have a little oil, it's not as good as a human meat bun!" Wei Yan said with a smile, and he could be regarded as saying hello to the owner of the bun shop.

"Wei boy, you little devil~"

"Boss, here are two buns."

"Alas, it's coming~" The owner of the bun shop didn't bother to talk to Wei Yan, and turned around to greet business.

"Wei boy, Gao boy, come here, I will occupy a good place for you." The one who spoke was also a hunter, named Liu Dajiang, and they usually set up stalls together.

"Thank you, Brother Liu." Wei Yan and Gao Shun were also not polite.

They came a little late, and now the stalls on the street are full, and it is not easy to find a good spot elsewhere.

"What a pretty little girl." Liu Dajiang looked at Qingqing and said.

He said this completely because of the boldness and uprightness of Shuobei Han, without the slightest meaning of teasing.

"Brother Liu, this is our sister, Qingqing."

"Qingqing, call Brother Liu."

Wei Yan gave them a brief introduction.

"Brother Liu, hello." Qingqing shouted obediently.

"Alas, hello Qingqing." Liu Dajiang smiled.

"Brother Liu, you have a good harvest!?" Wei Yan looked at Liu Dajiang's stall, seven or eight hares, and more than a dozen pheasants.

Liu Dajiang is worthy of being an old hunter, and the harvest of one person can catch up with Wei Yan and Gao Shun.

"You're not bad either!" Liu Dajiang replied casually.

"Yo, this is a high-quality white fox skin!" When Gao Shun put the white fox fur out, it immediately attracted Liu Dajiang's attention.

"Tsk, it's so complete, there are no flaws at all, it will definitely sell for a good price!" Liu Dajiang touched the fox fur with envy and gave a thumbs up to Wei Yan and Gao Shun.

"Hey, good luck, good luck." Wei Yan said modestly.

As soon as this high-quality fox skin was put on display, it quickly attracted many people to ask for the price.

Wei Yan asked for a fixed price of five hundred yuan, and the people who asked for the price shook their heads and walked away, it was not that Wei Yan asked for a high price, after all, such a good thing has a price, and it is rare to encounter one.

It's just that there are too few people who can afford it, so most people just ask the price, join in the fun, and see if they can pick up a leak.

Although the white fox skin could not be sold for a while, other prey borrowed the light of the white fox and sold quickly.

"Qingqing, are you hungry?" Wei Yan had money in his pocket, so he remembered that he had left early, and everyone hadn't eaten breakfast yet.

"Hmm." Qingqing nodded a little shyly.

"Okay, you guard the stall, Junko, let's go out and buy a few buns." Wei Yan said.

"Can't you buy it from Uncle Baozi? It's close. Gao Shun said.

"He's all vegetable buns, Qingqing rarely goes out with us once, of course he wants to eat meat buns, let's go." After Wei Yan finished speaking, he couldn't help but say, dragging Gao Shun away.

Wei Yan spent three yuan to buy six meat buns, which was a luxury for them, Gao Shun ate the meat buns, the corners of his mouth were oily, but his heart was bleeding.

Seeing Gao Shun's painful face, Wei Yan grabbed his shoulder and scolded with a smile: "You usually say that I am a fan of money, but I think you are a real fan of money." ”

"It's not that I'm worried about money, but we can't waste it like this." Gao Shun took another bite of the bun and said.

"Are the meat buns delicious?" Wei Yan asked.

"It's delicious."

"That's it, don't forget that white fox skin is worth a lot of money, it's nothing."

Wei Yan's eyes swept the shops on both sides.

"Wei Yan, what else do you want to buy?" Gao Shun grew up with Wei Yan since he was a child, and when he saw his appearance, he knew that he still had ideas.
