Chapter 281: Gossip Mountain Forest (Part II)

It seemed to be quite awake, and before Uncle Ye's words fell, the mastiff with a larger frame had already lazily stood up and walked to the stone canal that passed under the fence, stretched out his scarlet tongue and drank a few sips of mountain spring water, and then pulled his head down in the direction where Uncle Ye was sitting and rested on his front paws, as if waiting to listen to Uncle Ye talk about himself?

With a somewhat doting look, Uncle Ye reached out and took out a piece of black jerky from the muntjac skin waist pouch hanging behind his waist, raised his hand and threw it towards the mastiff, and laughed in a low voice: "I really gave birth to a pair of good ears, I just said you, but you immediately understood, didn't you?" ”

Without waiting for the piece of jerky thrown by Uncle Ye to land, the mastiff that was lying lazily on the ground jumped up suddenly, and its wide open mouth accurately grabbed the black jerky in mid-air, and the four paws had just landed again, and the jerky had already been swallowed by the mastiff!

Pointing at the mastiff who looked a little lazy, he smiled and scolded a few words, but Uncle Ye turned his head to look at Xiang Youbao, who was staring at the other walking dog, and smiled: "There is a leopard, so what can this other walking dog say?" ”

After thinking about it for a while, the leopard said to Uncle Ye with a deep groan: "Uncle Ye, I only heard my master mention it, saying that there is a method of training dogs in the army in the south, specifically to pick and fight the hunting dogs obtained from the Western realm, and match the wild wolves in this mountain forest. The puppies that can be found can have both the spirit of the hound and the ferocity of the wolf, which is really hard to buy. But no one knows how much success this method can have, and sometimes the dog cub that comes out is a wild wolf, and he can't be trained at all. Sometimes you can get a dog cub that looks like a hound, but I don't know if it's because of the wolf's suspicious temperament, even if you see a grass circle on the ground, you have to go up and sniff it for a long time, and it's an 800-pound longevity peach - waste dim sum! ”

Glancing at the old Uncle Ye who was silent but nodding frequently with his snow-white beard, Xiang Youbao continued: "This is according to the thing I saw." I guess it should be a series of three generations? Although the color of the coat is still pitch black, if you look at it carefully under the sun, you can still see the color of the coat on the back. It is the number of the coat color of the green wolf in the mountain forest. And the ears and tail are also not quite the same as ordinary walking dogsβ€”when ordinary walking dogs hang their ears. Almost the ears are drooping on the top of the head, but when this thing droops its ears, it is slightly to the sides, and the tail is not curled up in a circle like when the ordinary walking dog is lying on its stomach, and it is somewhat straight and stiff! I pondered....... Old Uncle Ye, that green wolf who is about to become a fine should be captured alive, right? ”

Sighing slightly, Old Uncle Ye squinted his eyes and nodded: "Although it took a lot of trouble to take down that green wolf. But it's not too difficult after all. Just to get this three strings, it really made me think about it! Not to mention the hard work of several female hounds brought over from the south by an old friend back then, just taking advantage of the fact that this green wolf was in late winter and early spring, it was all ........"

It seems that it is a little inappropriate to think of these words in front of Xiahou Yinghe, a girl who has not left the cabinet. Old Uncle Ye stopped talking suddenly, but smiled at the nine monkeys who were squatting aside and listening with relish: "Child, I'm afraid the water you put on the stove has to boil three or five times, right?" ”

As if waking up from a dream, the nine monkeys jumped up violently, turned their heads and ran towards the stove. And Xiahou Yinghe, who was sitting on the side, also seemed to realize why Uncle Ye had broken the conversation. With a red face, he said to Old Uncle Ye as if he was interrupting: "Old Uncle Ye, since you have these two powerful things by your side, then Ming'er Let's go to find the live impala, isn't it a matter of being able to catch it?" This time, Brother Han's injuries can be regarded as a cure! ”

He shook his head slightly. Old Uncle Ye waved his hand at Xiahou Yinghe seriously: "Yinghe girl, this matter is really not so simple!" In this Foggy Spirit Mountain, if you want to rely on these two things to catch the prey next to you, not to mention holding the handle, it has to be nine out of ten. But if you want to catch this impala....... As far as these two things around me are concerned, I guess they really aren't one? ”

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Han Liangpin whispered a little dumbly: "Old Uncle Ye, I also heard someone else mention it, saying that this impala ....... Also has a name called Qingyang? Since these two things around you can kill wolves and tigers, how can you hold a few sheep without a rut? ”

Raising his eyes to look at the nine monkeys who were trotting towards everyone with three steps and two steps with the teapot, the old man raised his voice intentionally or unintentionally: "These are two different things!" The hunters in the old forest have passed a saying - the hungry tiger is in the mountain, and the jackal is difficult to beat, which means that the wild animals in the mountain and forest have their own way of living, and they all have their own ways to save their lives. For example, this impala usually stays in groups of three or five on the sunny hillside to bask in the sun, and the surrounding left and near are all bare stone stones, but the weeds on the feet and necks are unobstructed. Before the usual meat-eating wild things got closer, the impala was able to run away immediately. In addition, this impala is naturally good at climbing mountains and mountains, even if it is a straight and steep cliff, it is also a leg up. Even the two things around me can't catch those impalas at all! ”

Quickly poured tea for Uncle Ye and the others, the nine monkeys blinked their eyes and pondered for a moment, then turned their heads to look at the more than 20 pairs of impala horns hanging on the wall outside the stove room, and asked Uncle Ye very curiously: "Uncle Ye, since this impala is so difficult to pick up, how did you accumulate so many impala horns?" ”

Blowing the floating tea sticks on the tea bowl, Old Uncle Ye gently took a sip of hot tea, and then pouted at a few wooden stakes under the corner of the wall behind the nine monkeys: "Then you have to rely on that family to pick up those impalas!" ”

Looking back at a few wooden stakes under the corner of the wall that had been drenched in color by the wind and rain, the nine monkeys turned around and trotted up a wooden stake the thickness of an arm, and looked at it for a long time, but they couldn't see what kind of tree the stake was?

waved to the nine monkeys, and Uncle Ye didn't sell it, and shouted happily to the nine monkeys: "That's the branch cut down from the wild orange tree in the mountain." The wild orange trees in this mountain can only produce a few green oranges the size of walnuts all year round, and the sour ones can make people fall into their mouths, but this impala just likes the smell of wild orange trees. Although it is impossible to eat the young leaves of the wild orange tree on weekdays, the bark of the tree is often cranked by the impala. After dinner tonight, let's chop the branches cut down from the wild orange tree into pieces the size of fingernails, and then mix them with the fried black bean noodles and mix them well, not afraid that those impalas will not be on our set! ”

Frowning slightly, the leopard pondered for a moment, and then said to the old Uncle Ye who was sitting opposite him: "Old Uncle Ye, you just said that the boundaries of this impala activity are all cliffs and steep slopes towards the sun, so isn't the number of roads in this set of things half the effort?" ”

Twisting his beard under his chin, Old Uncle Ye nodded slightly: "This is also a helpless thing!" Originally, it was easy to catch wild animals in the mountains and forests, but it should be in a place with narrow paths and deep grass and dense forests. When I catch wild things in an open and spacious territory, it is the right way to use a clip. But this impala still has the ability to wake up with a nose, and when it smells a little human smell and iron smell, it immediately turns around and runs, so it can only make the hemp rope cow tendon boiled through pine needles under the cover......."

Raising his finger and pointing to the big cart parked on the other side of the stream, Xiang Youbao said to Uncle Ye in a harmonious voice: "I still have a few nets on the car, do you think we can use the nets to catch these impalas?" ”

Frowning slightly, Old Uncle Ye responded in a deep voice: "Use the net...... Someone has tried. It's just that the momentum on the impala's legs and feet is too great, and the ordinary fine net can't withstand the three or two kicks of those impalas, but the thick net rope rarely has such a fine mesh, and it can't trap the impala's hooves and feet at all......."

Before the leopard could speak, the nine monkeys had already responded to Uncle Ye's words with a bit of ostentation: "Old Uncle Ye, the nets that my senior brother brought were all newly woven according to the method taught by an uncle who specializes in beast hunting in my main gate. From Sijiu City to Wuling Mountain, Sister Yinghe and I never stopped all the way! ”

Looking down at the blood blisters on Xiahou Yinghe's hands like spring onions, and then looking at the tiny blood cuts on the fingers of the nine monkeys, Old Uncle Ye smiled curiously: "Ho...... Look at Yinghe girl and your hands....... Shouldn't this net be mortal?! ”

Like a child boasting in front of his elders, the nine monkeys replied with a triumphant smile: "The net rope woven from the bottom of the cow tendon hemp rope is wrapped around the soft copper wire that was cut out of the wires thrown by foreigners when it is woven into a grid." According to the uncle in my main gate, such a net can almost deal with the big animals that catch meat. If you can have the effort and materials to think about it carefully, even the tiger can't escape the net in the main gate of our fire......."

Seeing that the nine monkeys were blowing more and more boundless, Xiang Youbao reached out and patted the back of the head of the nine monkeys, and shouted in a low voice with a bit of disgust: "What nonsense? Putting it in front of Uncle Ye to show off, this can really be regarded as playing a big knife in front of Guan Gong and selling articles in front of the Confucian Temple! ”

Smiled and waved his hand at Xiang Youbao, and Uncle Ye didn't care about Xiang Youbao's words: "As the old saying goes, killing pigs and butts has its own way, and today I really want to see the house of this beast in the main gate of the fire?" ”
