Chapter 2 Wild Boar Thorn Spear

Today is the day when the team that went into the mountains to hunt came back, and at noon, there were many more villagers near the martial arts training ground, all of whom had family members who went into the mountains to hunt, and everyone chatted while looking at the road down the mountain from time to time.

Usually at noon you can see the team going down the mountain, I don't know what's going on, the sun is gradually turning west, it hasn't come out yet, I can't help but worry, there are fewer and fewer people chatting, my eyes are staring at the mountain pass, and another hunter team that is renovating and training at home can't practice, gathered together, to the back, even the most stable old patriarch can't sit still at home, and came to the village entrance to watch with crutches.

Until the sun was about to set, they finally walked a few figures from the mountains and forests, but they supported each other.

Everyone's hearts were pinched, and they couldn't help it anymore, so they ran towards the mountains and forests.

Seven or eight figures that came out immediately afterwards carried a large amount of prey, and even their waists were full.

The old patriarch thought to himself that it was okay, there were no casualties, and it was worth it after gaining so much.

Suddenly, there was a shout in the distance, and the old patriarch rubbed his eyes, and looked over with all his might, only to see a group of people carrying a huge black shadow, and he didn't know what kind of prey it was.

At this time, some feet ran back quickly, and everyone knew that they had beaten a big wild boar of one or two thousand catties, and it was killed by the little tiger who had just entered the mountain from the big tiger's family.

The little tiger lady greeted her, Zhang Dahu grinned and just wanted to speak, the little tiger girl looked at it twice and saw that there was no major injury, and she ran over directly without stopping.

I saw Zhang Xiaohu walking in front with his head held high and carrying the wild boar, surrounded by small friends, helping to carry it, while asking about the hunting people, full of envy.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaohu was not injured, Xiaohu Niang relieved herself, stepped forward, and silently took Xiaohu's bow and spear.

Back in the village, the adults were busy chopping the prey, and Zhang Xiaohu was already tired, so he followed Xiaohu Niang home directly.

Fell on the bed and answered a few questions from the little tiger girl, her eyes couldn't open anymore, and she unconsciously entered a dream.

Meimei woke up the next morning, Zhang Xiaohu climbed up and stretched out, so comfortable.

Walking out of the door to wash, the little tiger lady was busy with her own things, took a look and said, "Hungry, breakfast is ready, put it in the yard, go eat it." ”

Zhang Xiaohu answered, sat down and asked while eating, "Why didn't you see Dad?"

Xiaohu Niang said, "I haven't come back yet, I guess I'm still with the patriarch." ”

After Zhang Xiaohu finished eating in three or two bites, he ran out, "Mother, I'll go to the patriarch's grandfather to have a look." ”

Xiaohu Niang said, "You child, you are not stable at home, I don't know how to talk to your mother." ”

After going out and turning a few corners, I came to the old patriarch's house, and before I entered the door, I heard a lively chat inside.

When I went in, a group of people had already divided their prey, and they were sitting drinking and chatting, and when they saw Zhang Xiaohu coming in, the old patriarch asked Zhang Xiaohu to sit beside him with a smile.

"Xiaohu, you have made a great contribution"

"That's right, I've never seen such a big boar, you can be regarded as a warrior in our village. ”

"Xiaohu's spear is well practiced, and it is too accurate and powerful. ”

Everyone gave praise one after another, all kinds of praise continued, Zhang Xiaohu touched his head and smirked.

After eating and drinking for a while, the old patriarch waved his hand to let everyone disperse, and after a hard night's work, the old man was also tired.

Zhang Xiaohu walked in front with a huge boar head, this is the reward of the person who contributed the most, and he can also set up a pillar in the yard and put the pig's skull on the back, which is a great honor.

Now there are a lot of skull pillars in the house, what tigers, black bears, bison, Zhang Xiaohu got one for the first time he hunted, it's really amazing.

Zhang Dahu followed behind with hundreds of catties of prey, although he was injured and didn't sleep all night, but looking at Zhang Xiaohu who was walking in front, he was happy in his heart, this time the wild boar was divided into a lot, and the family could eat it vigorously during this time, Zhang Xiaohu was the time to grow his body, and he couldn't lose it.

Back at home, when the little tiger lady saw so much beast meat, she not only smiled, but hurried over and found a large number of wooden pots and barrels, ready to make these meats, so much beast meat, but she was tired.

Regardless of whether they went out to hunt or not, every family has divided the meat, but the hunter team has a little more, this big harvest, each family has at least more than 100 catties, the women in the village are busy, it is estimated that during this time, the yard of each family is full of animal meat ready to dry.

Zhang Dahu, father and son, sat in front of the wild boar's head, chatting while removing the meat from the pig's head with a knife.

"Good guy, Xiaohu, you see that this fangs are half a foot long, and the head of the spear is a little thinner, I'll make you a spear later, you can be considered a good weapon."

"Well, Dad, two fangs, one for each of us. ”

"Silly boy, dad doesn't need it, dad has a spear, that spearhead is still left by your grandfather, it is made of saber-toothed tiger teeth, and you don't need anything with it. ”

Zhang Dahu thought for a while, sighed and said, "It's a pity, I can't find the blood vine wood, or I don't have to change the gun barrel often." ”

Blood vine wood is like wood but not wood, but the best material for the gun shaft, elastic, and tough, saber teeth and tiger teeth as the gun head, plus the blood vine wood gun barrel, this can be regarded as an heirloom.

After the father and son finished dealing with the boar's head while talking, Zhang Xiaohu took two wild boar teeth and looked at them non-stop, good thing, the wild boar teeth are extremely sharp, if this is made into a stinging spear, and then against such a wild boar, it is estimated that a shot will be an eye, but unfortunately the wild boar teeth are still small, if it is bigger, you can make a gun head.

Zhang Dahu took out a lot of bits and pieces from the room, and was ready to help Xiaohu deal with the wild boar teeth, the curved wild boar teeth need special treatment to straighten, and all kinds of ores, gums, and finally carefully polished, is a good spearhead.

First took a pan with a flat bottom, filled it with water, and began to put all kinds of herbs in it, some dried and some fresh, obviously picked at different times, there are no less than 30 kinds of everything, it can be seen that the processing of animal teeth is also a big project for them.

After the various herbs are boiled in the pot, the water turns into a dark green medicinal juice, and then the wild boar teeth are put in, and then they need to be boiled slowly for nearly an hour, this process is to remove various substances that cannot be seen in the teeth, leaving only pure bone.

After boiling, Zhang Dahu took out the wild boar teeth, rinsed them with water until there was no more medicinal juice, and then took the wild boar teeth to the fire and baked them.

Xiaohu also placed a variety of powder next to the fire, skilled action at a glance to know that it is not the first time to do, from the beginning of sensible, the children in the village began to help adults do things, dealing with animal teeth is also a common one, usually used feather arrows are also made of various animal teeth, but according to the shape of the teeth, the production process is slightly different.

After roasting for a while, Zhang Dahu began to pinch a pinch of powder from time to time and sprinkle it on the wild boar teeth, sprinkle a handful, and when the powder melted, he replaced it with another, and the wild boar teeth slowly turned red in various powder spraying.

Turning red, it means that the temperature is already extremely high, if the normal teeth will begin to crack at this time, or even shatter, but the wild boar teeth are nothing at all, but there is a kind of want to melt.

Zhang Dahu slowly turned the boar's teeth, adjusting the place where the fire was fired, and gradually the teeth began to melt like metal.

At this time, the most critical, primitive operation is destined to be shaped only by pure hand.

Relying on Zhang Dahu's rotation, the wild boar's tooth slowly turned into a straight fang, from the original curved shape.

After it was completely finalized, Zhang Xiaohu hurriedly removed the fire, at this time, Zhang Dahu couldn't let go, and kept the shape of the wild boar's teeth steadily, waiting for the temperature to slowly drop.

Withdrawn to the side of the fire and put a flat-bottomed stone pot on the top of the fire, Zhang Xiaohu took a few pieces of ore of different sizes and colors, looked at Zhang Dahu, saw the nodding and agreed, threw it into it together, grabbed a handful of powder and sprinkled it on the fire, the flames jumped up, the red flames licked the bottom of the stone pot, and after a while, the ore began to melt.

The temperature of the boar's teeth had cooled, and there was no longer any need to carefully maintain their shape, and the father and son waited quietly for the ore to melt.

The ore melted and tumbled, Zhang Dahu threw two wild boar teeth into the molten metal, and counted silently in his heart, this time needs to be mastered just right, less, the molten metal has not completely entered the bone, more, too high temperature will re-soften the wild boar teeth, and the shape is completely lost.

"Okay" Zhang Dahu quickly took out the wild boar teeth, shook the teeth, removed the excess metal residue attached to the teeth, and threw them into cold water to quickly cool down.

At this point, it was basically done, and the father and son wiped a handful of sweat.

One person took a tooth, and the final process was completed, and the two began to polish the tail of the boar's tooth, which needed to be polished and smoothed, and then the middle of the tooth should be polished.

Finally, put some gum on it, pour it into the teeth, insert the spear shaft that has been made long ago, and wait for the gum to cool and fix, and the wild boar tooth stabbing spear is completed.

Before I knew it, a day had passed, and the little tiger lady waited for the two of them to make a stabbing spear, came over to pack up the tools, put them on the table, and prepared to eat.

"Eat, eat, little tiger, play later. Zhang Dahu only found out at this time that he was already hungry.

Zhang Xiaohu reluctantly put down the spear in his hand, "Oh." ”

The little tiger lady looked at the little tiger who was gobbling up with a smile, and said while putting meat in the little tiger's bowl, "Eat more, little tiger." ”

What I thought in my heart was that my little tiger was terrible this time, eat a little more, and grow a little more strength, and the next time I encounter such a wild boar, there will be no danger.
