Chapter 406: The Sword is Not Old
Chapter 406: The Sword is Not Old
Who knew that he was too worried, and the next day, half of the milky white bird's nest had been exposed under the wooden board, which looked extremely attractive.
Zhang Qian sent the photos of bird's nest and monkey head to the eighteenth floor, which naturally aroused the interest of netizens again. Daqingshan has a monkey head, which a considerable number of people find incredible. It seems that they, like Zhang Qian, have been misled by primary school textbooks.
As for the bird's nest produced by the swiftlet, most people booked it early, saying that they wanted to pay for it. Liu Junhao smacked his lips when he saw it, he had no idea of selling it at all, just these few swiftlets, the nest built was not enough for his own food.
Although the bird's nest came out, Liu Junhao didn't dare to let his wife take it immediately. After all, these swiftlets have departed from their original living environment, and who knows if they have mutated.
He thought about it and called Huo Jun and asked him to come to Liujiagou and get some swallow strips to go back to someone to test them to see if they were suitable for human consumption.
Huo Jun was a little unbelieving when he received the call, thinking that Liu Junhao was joking with him, and only after seeing the photos on the Internet did he know that people didn't lie to him.
To say that in fact, he didn't have much hope when he first gave the swiftlet, but he didn't expect Liu Junhao to really cultivate it.
The next day, Huo Jun came to Liujiagou and said that he would bring some swallow strips back to inspect it, and of course the matter of taking the swallow strips would be handed over to Liu Junhao. The swiftlets had already been fed, and when he climbed to the vicinity of the bird's nest with the help of a ladder, these guys did not peck them, but landed on their shoulders affectionately.
The bird's nest was not big, and Liu Junhao just carefully cut off a finger-wide one with a knife.
"Xiao Hao, why don't you just take off the bird's nest. I've read it on the Internet, after people pick the nest for the first time, they don't hesitate to start making the second nest, you pick it quickly, we can pick a few more. Huo Jun saw that he had cut too little, so he opened his mouth to agitate.
"Forget it, it's better to pick less" Liu Junhao shook his head vigorously. Swiftlets can make nests several times a year, but only the first time is completely made of saliva, which has the highest nutritional value and is the top grade in bird's nest. The second time there was not so much saliva, the swiftlet had to peck the fluff on the body and bond it with saliva to form a bird's nest, which was of inferior quality.
When the nest made the second time was also removed, the third time was even more difficult, with little saliva left and not much fluff on the body. They can only bring in seaweed and other plant fibers, mixed with a small amount of saliva, to make the nest again.
You can't do this kind of fishing, you can pick less and pick less, anyway, you don't expect bird's nest to make money.
He found out from the Internet that swiftlets build new nests every year, even if the nest built last time is still there, they will rebuild the nest on top of the original nest, and will not build a new nest because the nest built before is still there, so harvesting bird's nest will not cause swiftlets to be homeless.
It is better to wait for the swiftlets to hatch and then talk about it, so as to ensure the long flow of fine water.
In the past few days, the mountain goods in Daqingshan have reached the harvest season, and Huo Jun has been very busy, so he didn't stay at Liu Junhao's house any longer, and left in a hurry after getting a few catties of yellow eels.
Sending the guests away, Liu Junhao was just about to sit down and take a breath, when he heard a "squeak" from the drawer...... Squeak......" scream. Only then did he remember that the squirrel had forgotten to feed it, and his wife had repeatedly told him before going to school.
To say that Liu Junhao is very impatient to raise these little guys now, but there is no way, the daughter-in-law likes it very much, saying that this squirrel is very cute, and specially named it Diandian.
The little one can't see now, and he has to be fed hot milk with a straw, five or six times a day, which is quite annoying.
As soon as the squirrels were fed, Liu Guangju's phone rang, saying that the hunting team in Daqingshan had been set up and asked him to report on the street.
It seems that he will be busy again from today, Liu Junhao has no choice but to entrust the dots to Professor Zhao to take care of, and he himself leads the three macular skins towards the street.
When he arrived at the meeting place, he saw Zhao Guangming waving at him from afar.
There were more than a dozen people in the hunting team, but except for him and Zhao Guangming, the others were all old, and the average age was at least forty-five years old. And the dogs they brought were only three wolf dogs, and the others were Shiba dogs. Several dogs saw that Xiaopi was whining and dodging, and they didn't dare to look at it at all, obviously sensing its threat.
Liu Junhao looked a little depressed, the combat effectiveness of this team is too poor.
"You are Liu Junhao from Liujiagou, these macular skins were raised by you, and they are ......really powerful" Liu Junhao is now quite famous in Liujiagou, and there are also people who take Tai Sui water from his family, so they are not strangers to each other.
I thought that I would be paid for participating in this hunting team, but who knows that there is not a penny, and the so-called hunting team is just legalizing the killing of wild boars.
It's okay not to be paid, at least with a shotgun...... It's a pity that there isn't even this. When Liu Junhao asked the person in charge, he learned that the shotguns had been confiscated as early as the 90s, and now the management authority for the sale and use of shotguns and bullets rested with the public security department, and the public security department was very cautious about approving gun licenses. The county did not have the authority to approve the use of firearms, so they had to resort to primitive methods to hunt wild boars.
When he set off, there was only one person holding a cannon barrel, and many people also went up the mountain with bows and arrows and iron forks, and suddenly they looked like they had come to ancient times, and the crossbow in his and Zhao Guangming's hands was poured into an advanced weapon. Isn't this typical of just letting the horses run and not letting the horses graze, not to mention not being paid.
What made him feel even more depressed was that there were still people carrying a gong...... Can you fight wild boars with this tool? Liu Junhao was speechless, these people probably thought they were playing acrobatics.
The most unconvincing thing for him and Zhao Guangming was that everyone actually elected an old man in his seventies as the captain. This old man's name is Xiao Baocai, and he walks up the mountain road to tremble, and it is estimated that he will have to divide his personal protection when he encounters a wild boar.
However, the two of them are juniors, and they have no right to speak in the team at all, so they can only follow closely all the way. The two of them now have little hope, just go up the mountain to hang out.
Pi soon spotted the boar's sights on the mountain beam and flew out in front of him.
Old Man Xiao hurriedly shouted, "Stop, stop...... Xiao Hao, let your macular skin go slowly, don't panic"
"Old man, if we slow down, the wild boar will enter the mountains." Zhao Guangming replied anxiously. It was the first time he participated in the wild boar hunt, and he was very excited, and he wanted to show his majesty.
"You know what, wild boars are eaten all the way and all the way, and no one is alarmed and will definitely stop and go. Let's just follow the hoof prints. You young people are just rough and rough, and ......you don't have any patience at all," Old Man Xiao reprimanded him with a head and face.
As soon as I heard from others, they didn't show any positive intentions, so let's go with the flow. If it doesn't work, the two of them will act separately, and I believe that with four macular skins and two crossbows, it shouldn't be a big problem to kill the first wild boar.
The old man walked more and more slowly, and after each section of the mountain road he would stop, take a small wooden stick and pull it in the grass for a while, and then nodded, looking unfathomable.
"What the hell are you looking at, old man?" Liu Junhao couldn't help it, so he asked.
"I'm checking the number of wild boars, I counted the hoof prints just now, one big and seven small, such a large group will definitely not be able to run fast, we will be able to catch up soon." Old Man Xiao explained.
"I said old man, are you kidding, you can see this?" Zhao Guangming asked very suspiciously. He learned to tap the grass with a stick, but found nothing.
"Hehe, if you find out, you'll be a cow. Do you know who this old man is, it is the famous 'Xiao Dog' in our town, and everyone knows about it in ten miles and eight towns. A man laughed and explained.
Is he famous, how come I haven't heard of it? Zhao Guangming gave Liu Junhao an inquiring look.
"Explain to them, how do young people know this nickname." Another man surnamed Ma followed.
"You...... You're a Shaw dogleg. Liu Junhao was taken aback, and looked at this unattractive old man blankly, but he really couldn't see it.
"You know me?" This time it was Xiao Baocai's turn to be surprised. His fame was evident twenty or thirty years ago, and he later closed the mountains to cultivate forests and became a forest ranger, so few young people know about it.
"Of course, of course. My grandfather is Old Man Liu, the one who sells thirteen incense. Liu Junhao explained with a little excitement, "My grandfather used to say that there are two strange people in Daqingshan, you have to find 'Xiao Dog's Legs' when you go up the mountain, and you have to 'Liu Tianyan' when you go down the river." ”
The names of these two people, Liu Junhao, often heard Old Man Liu talk when he was a child, Liu Tianyan is Liu Wuye of Liujiagou, and he is unmatched in catching fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs in the water; It is said that if you see a hoof print on the mountain, you can know what animal left it, and the size of the male and female of this animal can be judged, in short, the old man Liu was full of admiration when he talked about it.
"Oh, what do I say," Old Man Xiao nodded and asked, "Is Liu Lao Wu okay, it's rare to see him on the street over the years." ”
"Okay, my fifth master is now helping the village take care of the chicken farm, and he is very busy, so he can't be idle on the street." Liu Junhao's tone became more and more respectful.
"I said Liu Junhao, this old man is really good?" After the crowd walked away, Zhao Guangming quietly grabbed him and asked.
"Nonsense, haven't you seen Liu Wuye's bare hand turtle catching technique, do you think that the person who can be named with him will be fake?"
"That's not easy to say, this old man is seventy or eighty years old, his eyesight is not good for a long time, maybe his skills will be lost." Zhao Guangming was very unconvinced.
"Everyone, stop," they were saying, when Old Man Xiao suddenly called out to stop.
"What's wrong?" Liu Junhao hurriedly followed.
"The wild boar is in front, let's surround it on three sides and spread out......" Old Man Xiao commanded.
"No, macular skin didn't call." As soon as Zhao Guangming spoke, Xiao Pi, who was exploring the path in front, suddenly turned over and came back and yelled at his master a few times.
"That's right, the wild boar is in front" Seeing the reaction of his own macular skin, Liu Junhao also nodded.
"This ...... It's also incredible. Zhao Guangming originally wanted to say that people's noses are smarter than dog noses, but when he woke up before he could say anything, he scolded people, and hurriedly changed his tone.
"Lao Wang, Xiao Zhao, and the three bald men, each of you three has a team of people. Hearing my password before acting, I will go to the front to get off the wild boar clip first, remember that the wild boar clip is tied with a red cloth belt, and don't step on it when you see it," Old Man Xiao explained a few words, and then picked up a few iron clips and left.
"There is no shelter on this mountain, who knows in what direction the wild boar is running, can he do it with the few iron shelves in his hand?" Zhao Guangming was very confused, he really didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in this old man's gourd.
"Let's see" In fact, Liu Junhao was also a little skeptical.
According to Lao Wang's orders, more than a dozen of them were divided into three groups and dispersed. Probably in order to take care of the two young people, Lao Wang deliberately arranged Liu Junhao and the two by his side. Not long after I was ready, I suddenly heard a loud whistle.
Liu Junhao hadn't reacted yet, and Lao Wang had already grabbed the gong and slammed it.
As if echoing, the left and right began to sound wildly, and these people shouted and rushed forward.
Zhao Guangming and the two were attracted by the atmosphere, and they also screamed.
In this way, the sound of gongs, the roar of people, and the barking of dogs were all mixed together.
As soon as they rushed out a hundred meters away, they saw several black figures shaking in the woods in front of them.
"It's really a big and seven small" Zhao Guangming still has the leisure to check the number of wild boars at this time.
There were sounds behind and to the left and right, and the boar could only run forward in a frenzied manner. As soon as the crowd chased two hundred meters away, Lao Wang asked them to stop.
"Why don't you chase it?" Zhao Guangming asked strangely, he was on the rise.
"Look, isn't that already caught" Lao Wang pointed to the front, and everyone realized that there was a wild boar in front of him humming in place, which should be in the middle of the trap.
Good guy, I didn't expect to catch a pig all at once, weighing more than 300 pounds. A few macular skins didn't exert any strength at all, and they were considered white.
After Zhao Guangming saw a few iron clips, he was indescribably convinced. Several iron shelves were placed in a radius of one zhang, and it was obvious that the old man had already decided that the wild boar would flee in this direction.
Seeing the wild boar grinning at him with fangs, he was about to raise his crossbow and bow for a moment, but Old Man Xiao stopped him again, "Don't kill it, let's kill it when we bring it back to the town." ”
"Take it back to the town, old man, do you think this is a pig?" Zhao Guangming was puzzled again.
"You guessed it, I'm the one in charge." Old Man Xiao pointed to the knife in his waist and said, "Young man, take a hard time, go cut a few bamboo poles." ”
By the time Zhao Guangming and the others cut the bamboo pole back, Old Man Xiao had already sharpened several wooden skewers. I saw him drill a few holes in the bamboo pole, then stuffed the wooden skewer into it and fixed it, and then used the bamboo pole to weave a utensil in the shape of a cow itch rope.
The ox itch rope is the thing that the cattle are tied when ploughing the land with an iron plough in the countryside, and when the cattle do not obey the owner's command, as long as this thing is pulled, the cattle can be honest.
With the help of a few people, they quickly put bamboo poles around the boar's body, and the wooden skewers happened to be aimed at the weak parts of the pig's skin.
Now Liu Junhao understands a little, the function of this bamboo pole and the ox itch rope is very similar, they are all to control and prevent the animals in it from moving.
"Let's go......" Old Man Xiao pulled in front, and the wild boar got up obediently.
Today, it should be possible to update 10,000 words in three times, and update 4,000 words first. The next two more will probably be revised and released at about two o'clock, so you can wait until tomorrow to see it.
