30. Group hunting
When Village Chief Li opened the courtyard door, he saw Li Xiangdong carrying a wild boar on his back, followed by a group of villagers.
Li Xiangdong entered the yard and threw the wild boar on the ground and said to the village chief: "Uncle, this wild boar was beaten by my daughter-in-law, she wants to eat the pig's head meat, help me keep the pig's head, and give the rest to the villagers." ”
"Your daughter-in-law is getting more and more capable." Village Chief Li was a little envious and a little relieved, the life of his brother's family was about to live.
The people in the village also echoed it, praising them and pouring out the money.
Eat people with a soft mouth, and take people with short hands.
I don't know what modesty is.
Li Xiangdong smirked and accepted it all.
After the family finished eating and washing, Li Xiangyang sent the pig's head over, and Li Laohan hurriedly lit the torch and went to the kitchen to light the fire, preparing to cook the pig's head overnight.
The daughter-in-law loves to eat, so let her take it to the mountains tomorrow morning to eat.
Li Xiangyang didn't leave, squatted next to Li Xiangdong and watched him pick up the pig's head: "Brother Xiangdong, tomorrow you will go into the mountains to hunt and take me." ”
"Well, you haven't made an appointment with anyone."
"Is my sister-in-law going?"
"Your sister-in-law, I only went to tell someone this afternoon."
"Ah, why don't you call me."
Li Xiangdong glared at him.
Li Xiangyang smirked: "I forgot to tell you, otherwise, I'll get up early tomorrow and wait at your house, and if they are willing to take me, I'll go." ”
"You haven't entered the mountain once, who will be willing to take you, who will be willing to team up with you. You go again next year, and I'll take you into the mountains next year. ”
"Ah, we'll have to wait until next year. Brother Xiangdong, take me into the mountain. If it weren't for you and my sister-in-law, I'd follow you. ”
"You have a good plan, have you asked the uncle and the aunt?"
"I haven't told my dad yet, if you agree, I'll tell my dad again."
"Okay, okay, it's too dangerous in the mountains, and the uncle definitely can't agree to your nonsense."
Li Xiangdong finished picking up the pig's head, got up and took it to the kitchen. Li Xiangyang followed behind and shouted, "Brother Xiangdong, brother... Brother..."
"It's useless what you call, we have to enter the mountain for half a month, you calculate the time, drive the ox cart to the bottom of the mountain to pick us up, and I'll get you whatever you want to eat when the time comes."
"But I just want to go into the mountains."
"As you are now, if you can't beat and run, you just send snacks to the beasts in the mountains."
"But you don't have time to teach me right now."
"I'm just teaching you, and you can learn it in a day?"
Li Xiangyang was blocked and speechless, scratching his head and feeling a little disappointed: "Then I really can't go." ”
"I can't go."
"Okay then, I'll go back when I've learned my skills later, then I'll go back first." He turned around and said, "Third uncle, sister-in-law, then I'll go home first." ”
Li Laohan answered and said to Li Xiangdong: "It's not easy to take this pig's head broth soup and water to the mountain. ”
"It's okay, I'll bring this Ding Jar with me when the time comes. There is a small half a month in the mountain, and it is more convenient to bring boiling water and stew some soup. ”
"Okay, don't forget to bring the baked bread tomorrow morning."
"Dad, don't worry, you can't forget it."
Before dawn the next day, the two of them took their torches and went to the agreed place at the foot of the mountain to wait for the others.
This time, due to the large number of people, I didn't dare to put all the things in the space. Li Xiangdong carried the bedding to keep out the cold, Luo Yun carried a basket full of dry food, and put the pot with pig's head meat into the space.
After waiting for about a cup of tea, people arrived one after another, and this time it was Zhang Lihu from Zhangjia Village who took the lead.
Zhang Orion's people were tall and big, spoke loudly, and acted neatly, and when he saw that everyone had arrived, he beckoned everyone to rush to the mountain.
It was only at the end of the afternoon that they arrived at the place where they had rested for their hunting in previous years.
When they arrived at the place, Zhang Orion beckoned everyone to sit down and rest for a while. At this time, everyone's eyes glanced in the direction of Luo Yun intentionally or unintentionally, this little daughter-in-law of the Li family looked delicate and weak, but she didn't say a word along the way, looking at her current appearance very leisurely, there was no trace of tiredness, the big guy was tired and panting, only she was still walking around.
In the past two days, it has been rumored that the little daughter-in-law of the Li family hunted a big tiger and sold it for three hundred taels of silver. No matter how true the rumors were, the people from all over the country believed it, and these hunters didn't dare to imagine it. That's a big tiger, not a big cat, just this moment, if a big tiger comes, these dozen people have to run with their lives, not to mention hunting big tigers, if they can escape a life, even if God blesses. If it is said that Li Xiangdong hunted, it is impossible. Li Xiangdong's ability is the best in this group of hunters, but it is impossible to say that he can hunt the big tiger unharmed.
Luo Yun said hello to Li Xiangdong and looked around.
The place was well chosen, and the open space in front of it was about a hundred square meters, overgrown with weeds that were about to wither. The entrance to the cave is covered with shelter, and it is impossible to see how big it is. Luo Yun looked around, and then inspected the cave for more than twenty miles.
How can you rest assured if you don't check the place where you want to rest at night?
When Luo Yun came back from his inspection, he was carrying a roe deer in his right hand and a string of pheasants and rabbits tied to a rope in his left hand. Around its neck is a snake with thick calves. The head and tail of the snake were dragged to the ground behind him in a long way. Everyone looked at this picture, some people got up from the stone in shock, and some people fell directly to the ground.
Li Xiangdong was also speechless, and shouted in his heart, daughter-in-law, please be a little more low-key in your appearance.
Li Xiangdong hurriedly stepped forward, took the prey and put it on the ground, Luo Yun raised the snake above his head and threw it on the ground and pointed at the snake: "This guy still wants to chase me and bite, I killed it." ”
"This is a snake, how did you provoke this thing, this thing is poisonous, and if you spray venom, you will die. Are you okay? ”
"I'm fine, it didn't catch up with me."
"Look back and stay away from this thing."
"Don't worry, I'm not afraid of it." After speaking, he glanced at the snake around the snake from the corner of his eye, and lowered his voice: "Is this thing delicious?" If it's delicious, we'll keep it for ourselves and don't give it to them. ”
Li Xiangdong looked at her sneaky appearance and laughed: "Don't worry, they won't eat your snake, I don't know if it's delicious or not, I've never seen such a big snake." However, I have eaten a snake with a thin thumb, and it is stewed with pheasant, and it tastes very delicious. ”
"Then let's keep it for ourselves."
"Okay, but this snake doesn't know how to poison it. Wait until the doctor has asked the doctor before killing. The gall of the snake and the skin of the snake can be sold for silver. ”
Li Xiangdong looked at his daughter-in-law and heard that the taste was extremely delicious, so she swallowed her saliva. I was secretly amused in my heart, and I swallowed back the words that snake meat could be sold for money.
"Then let's go in groups of two, let's go to the inner fence and put the snake in the space, it's too inconvenient not to mess with them."
"Well, listen to you."
"Xiang Dong, your big snake can be sold for more than a hundred taels of silver, do you want to continue hunting or go back first. I'm afraid I won't be able to put this thing down. Zhang Lihu looked at Li Xiangdong and the two couples came over and asked.
"That's it, more than half a month, I don't know if it's going to be bad, and I can't die of distress if it's broken."
"I thought about going into the inner area with my daughter-in-law to find a shady cave and hide the snake in it. Half a month later, I will go down the mountain with you. ”
"Brother Xiangdong, my sister-in-law is so powerful, she can hunt big tigers and catch big snakes."
"Yes, Brother Xiangdong, at first I didn't believe that your daughter-in-law could hunt big tigers, but you can see how hard it took to catch such a big snake."
"This snake must have two or three hundred pounds."
Everyone gossiped around the snake for a long time, and Zhang Orion stopped talking and arranged for everyone to get busy.
Carry water, chop wood, clear weeds, and remove shelter from the cave entrance.
This cave is as big as the inside and outside, and there is a large iron pot, a large clay pot, a dozen coarse porcelain bowls, a wooden basin and two buckets, and everything is also poured.
These things have to be cleaned, the cave must also be cleaned, and the prey brought by Luo Yun must also be cleaned and cooked, and there are many things. Zhang Orion is a very competent leader. Things are well organized. Luo Yun and Li Xiangdong received the errand of chopping wood, and the mountains were full of dead branches and leaves. The two chose a dead tree that the two of them hugged together, and Luo Yun kicked it with his foot, but it didn't rot. Luo Yun thought that it would be too troublesome to cut down those branches and branches after putting them down, so it was better to climb to the tree and cut them down directly. Luo Yun pointed to the dead tree and said to Li Xiangdong: "I'll climb up and cut it, and you sort it out below." ”
"I'll go up, it's too dangerous to climb so high."
"No, I'm not happy to cut these branches underneath, it's too much trouble. Besides, what danger can I have. ”
What else can Li Xiangdong say, his daughter-in-law is too good, and it is so difficult to earn performance.
Luo Yun climbed the tree with agility, starting from the bottom trunk, cutting up layer by layer, and when he reached the top of the tree, there was only one bare pole left, and then jumped and landed beside Li Xiangdong.
Li Xiangdong has been chopping firewood for so many years, and only today does he know the correct way to cut firewood.
It's really abusing every minute with my daughter-in-law...
Luo Yun pointed to a dead tree branch on the ground: "I'll leave these to you." ”
Li Xiangdong took Luo Yun's hand and turned it around: "Don't jump down from such a high place next time, what if you fall." ”
Luo Yun laughed: "Don't worry, no matter how high it is, it's fine, you better hurry up and sort out these firewoods, I won't help you." ”
Li Xiangdong smiled: "I don't need your help, I can clean it up, you go to the side and sit and wait for me." ”
Luo Yun found a nearby tree to climb up, leaned his back against the trunk, sat comfortably with his legs hanging in the air, reached out and took out a bag of snacks from the space and shouted to Li Xiangdong: "Hey, do you want to have some." After speaking, he held up the dim sum and shook it at Li Xiangdong.
"No, I'll wait until I'm done." When Luo Yun finished eating two packs of dim sum and threw a fruit core under the tree, he jumped down from the tree.
Looking at Li Xiangdong's trimmed branches, each one is two or three meters long. Luo Yun pulled a few vines, twisted and twisted the firewood into two bundles. Holding a bundle in one hand, he said to Li Xiangdong as he walked, "I'll send these over first." By the time Li Xiangdong looked up, Luo Yun had already run away.
Li Xiangdong touched his nose and told himself not to compare with his daughter-in-law, that is, he was uncomfortable...
