Chapter 249: The Trap

I used to think about going up the mountain to get some dead trees and go home to plant fungus, but now I see that this lycium tree is just right, and I don't need to plant the fungus myself, just cut it back

But thinking about it, Liu Junhao finally dispelled his thoughts. The tree is so big that even if it could be brought down, it would take a lot of effort to get it out of the mountain. Or stay in the mountains to make a mark, and lead Wukong to come every other month and a half-month.

Thinking of the monkey breaking the fungus, he thought again, he used to think that people were purely foodies, but now it seems that as long as they are used properly, they are definitely a good helper. Go up the mountain to break the pine tower, pick a walnut or make persimmons and so on.

"Liu Junhao, do you sell this fungus, I want to buy a little?" At this time, a tourist who was looking at it with envy asked.

At that time a few years ago, my family's fungus had received a lot, and it was enough for the New Year. However, Zhang's mother had already explained that several old sisters wanted some wild fungus.

Thinking of this, he can only say apologetically. said: "Hehe, don't sell it, someone has already greeted me." ”

Although the pheasant did not touch a single one, but this. The harvest of the next trip to the mountain is quite large, and the fungus alone should be rewarded by the monkeys when they go back.

It's sunny, but it's daytime in winter. It was only a short time, and the sun was passing over the mountain beams. Liu Junhao saw that the time was not early, and was ready to pack up and lead everyone down the mountain.

I never thought that a few tourists were interested, and now there is no way down the mountain at all. Thinking. He had to explain carefully, and then led a few children out of the mountain with Zhang Qian.

"Grandma, grandma, do you think we got something good in the mountains?" Detached. Far away, Xiao Zeyu was already shouting at the top of his voice.

"Did you hit the pheasant?" Hearing the movement, Professor Zhao and the others walked out of the courtyard.

"See, we picked a bag of fungus......"

"It's not us, it's the monkeys"

"Thanks to Wukong...... several children began to express their merits.

Zhang's mother saw them go into the mountains and get back so many fungus. When happy, he praised a few little guys.

It's not early to see that it's not early. Qian rested for a while and began to cook. Liu Junhao went back to the house and took out two handfuls of jujubes to share with everyone, and of course he also caught a lot of monkeys, which was a reward for this guy.

In the evening, Zhang's mother wanted to use the steamed pot bean buns for the New Year, so it was nearly eight o'clock when the meal was ready.

As soon as they picked up their rice bowls, Liu Junqi's shout came from the door.

"What's the matter?" Liu Junhao hurriedly walked out of the kitchen with a bowl, only to see two people standing at the door.

"Didn't a few people follow you up the mountain in the afternoon, and there are still two of them who haven't come back at this point, so I'll see if they are at your house."

"Didn't come back, Tong?" Liu Junhao was also stunned, when he went out of the mountain, he obviously told them to come back early. Although there are many mountains near Liujiagou, the altitude is not very high, and it is generally difficult for people to get lost in the mountains.

"Can't get through" didn't wait for Liu Junqi to speak, and a tourist next to him had already opened his mouth anxiously.

Liu Junhao remembered him, he went up the mountain with the two in the afternoon, but how did he go out of the mountain alone.

When I asked, I knew that part of the reason was still on myself, and seeing that his monkeys had picked so many wild fungus, two of them immediately moved their minds and wanted to search around to see if they could find some.

So, several tourists parted ways, and the two thought that the nearby fungus must be lighted, so they set off to look for it deep in the mountains and forests.

At that time, they were also afraid of getting lost, so they discussed using mobile phones to contact, and they deliberately dialed each other with mobile phones before breaking up, and they could all be connected.

When this person came back, he saw that it was not early, so he called them, but who knew that he didn't get through. At the time, I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was because the mobile phone signal in the mountains was too poor.

But seeing that it was evening and the two of them hadn't come out of the mountain, he was in a hurry and hurriedly asked the master to discuss a solution.

Liu Junqi was also startled when he heard that the guests had entered the mountain and did not come back. He wanted to go into the mountain to look for it at once, but the guests couldn't name the mountain road, only to go all the way north.

I heard that they were with Liu Junhao in the afternoon, and Liu Junqi thought about it for a while, so he led someone over and asked where they got separated.

"We were separated in the Humpback Mountain, and after we parted, they continued to walk into the mountain, and no one knew where they were." Liu Junhao was naturally familiar with the situation in the nearby mountains.

It is said to be familiar, but it is to know a general route. The Camelback Mountain side is relatively remote, and the people in the village generally don't go to it much, so there is no mountain road to follow. If it weren't for the monkey leading the way this time, he wouldn't have passed.

After listening to the tourist's statement, Liu Junhao was quite puzzled. The couple was really bold enough to dare to venture into the mountains when it was dark. They didn't have any weapons with them when they went up the mountain, so what if they ran into a wild boar or something.

As soon as he heard that people didn't know the specific location, Liu Junqi was even more anxious, and he carried a lantern and prepared to go into the mountain to look for it immediately.

"If you go alone, you won't be able to find it, so you have to wait and call a few people together." After this incident, Liu Junhao naturally couldn't continue to eat. He put the bowl down and asked Zhang Qian to dial Er Mazi through his mobile phone.

"Yes, yes, I'm in a hurry." Liu Junqi remembered that there were mountains within a radius of dozens of miles around, and it was useless to enter the mountains alone, and I was afraid that I would not be able to find anyone if I broke my leg.

After a while, Er Mazi called out six or seven people from the village. Everyone had a portable lamp in their hands and their dogs on their side.

Liu Junhao was no exception, he felt unsteady after putting his small leather collar on, and borrowed Professor Zhao's little yellow dog.

Fortunately, when he was fine before, he trained Xiaopi to reflect the smell, Liu Junqi's family had the couple's backpack, and he specially let Xiaopi smell it.

The couple had been missing for less than half a day, and the smell had dissipated. This is much better than the situation when the Er Mazi family lost the wild boar, so Liu Junhao is not too worried about not finding it. He was worried about what an accident would happen, although there were no cliffs or anything like that on the mountain, but there were many stone pedal nests three or five meters high. If it was dark and they panicked and fell from the stone pedal nest, they would have fallen half to death.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but let Xiaopi speed up his pace. Although Professor Zhao's little yellow dog is new to the battlefield, he has also learned well.

The two dogs walked all the way, followed by a few people looking at the road with portable lanterns. Sparrows, pheasants, and other night birds that inhabit the mountains are startled from time to time and flutter over the treetops. In the distance, there was a "coo...... Goodo...... Meow ......", that should be the sound of a night owl.

The two dogs took the right route, walking straight towards the Humpback Mountain.

"Wangwang......" Suddenly Little Skin shouted loudly in front of him, and then Little Yellow Dog began to bark wildly.

"What's wrong?" Several people hurriedly shone their portable lamps over.

I saw a few black things appear in the wild grass next to me, and these guys emitted a ghostly glow in their eyes under the light, and suddenly they looked very frightening.

"Wild boar!?" Ermazi could see at a glance what those dizzy guys were.

The wild boars, all half the size of a pile, were suddenly illuminated by a bright light in the dark, and their eyes were temporarily blinded. Therefore, when they saw the crowd, they did not flee immediately, but formed a circle and chirped and screamed.

Several dogs in the back moved quickly, and under the call of Xiaopi, they quickly surrounded them.

When the dog barked, the wild boar probably came back to his senses and began to flee in all directions. Xiaopi wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Liu Junhao. If it was a normal time, he would definitely not let the wild boar run away, but now this matter is not important, the important thing is to find the missing tourist as soon as possible, the longer the time drags on, the greater the accident is estimated.

Letting go of the wild boar, they moved on. The mountain road was difficult to walk at night, and it took them nearly two hours to find the wolfberry tree they had seen in the afternoon.

Finding this, Xiaopi sniffed in the grass for a while, then turned his head and continued to run towards the dense mountain forest in the northwest.

As they walked, the tourist called at the same time, but unfortunately there was no signal until there was no electricity.

Liu Junhao followed behind and became more and more puzzled, remembering that it was almost dark when he came out of the mountain, and these tourists didn't know what to think, so they dared to continue walking towards the mountain.

The grass on the northern slope of the Humpback Mountain is very thick, most of them more than half a person deep, so it is especially difficult for everyone to walk. Separated by less than two meters, Xiaopi's body only disappears in the wild grass.

Fortunately, this guy is smart, and he turns around from time to time to call twice to remind him of his location.

After walking for more than ten minutes, they plunged headlong into the dense forest.

At this moment, Xiaopi suddenly screamed and rushed up, and the little yellow dog reacted a little slowly, but soon rushed up.

"Did you find someone?" When Er Mazi saw the abnormal situation of the two dogs, he was immediately happy.

"It should be" Liu Junhao also followed quickly, not paying attention, his face was hit by a branch, and it hurt hotly.

"Help, help, anyone?" A faint call came from the left.

"Over there!" Several people hurriedly rushed over with the dogs.

"Hiss......" They were all startled when they saw where the couple was, and hurriedly asked if they were okay.

They actually fell into a trap, and when hunting was not prohibited in the mountains near Liujiagou before, people often dug traps in the mountains and forests to hunt. However, they usually dig holes less than two meters deep, mainly to catch wild wolves and grass civets. The bottom of the trap was covered with sharpened branches, into which the beast fell and was punctured into a hedgehog.

This trap is different, it is dug very widely, and under the illumination of the portable lamp, it looks particularly deep, and it looks like this should have been used by hunting dogs and bears in the past. Before the liberation of this mountain, there were many bears, and I heard the old people in the village say that every autumn harvest season, there are groups of bears going down the mountain to dig sweet potatoes and break corn cobs to eat. In the early days of liberation, gun management was not strict, and many hunters went up the mountain with hunting rifles to hunt bears. The highest record of bear hunting was seventy-three years, and a total of six bears were hunted, and this matter was still in the country chronicles at that time. Since then, the number of bears has slowly decreased. In the 80s, although guns were banned, few people have hunted bears since then, and no one has seen them for more than ten years.

The year before last, someone's corn field was destroyed in a mess, and at that time some people said that they had seen a bear, but later an expert came to inspect the field and concluded that the damage was caused by monkeys
