59A small gathering in the deep mountains and old forests

In 1986, many people did not have the awareness to protect wild animals, nor could they imagine that future generations would protect wild animals.

Next to the fire, Wang Yuan sat on a piece of wood and ate meat skewers, thought for a while and said, "Okay, then let's go kill wild boars!"

"Okay." The pillar's face showed joy: "It's not early today, let's go again tomorrow!"

"After a night, the wild boar herd won't run away, right?"

"Oh no, as long as no one is chasing, the wild boar herd won't run around with its head reckless."

It is indeed a great blessing to meet a fellow villager in the vast mountains and old forests.

There was still some time before it got dark, and the three of them went directly to their underground nest to get something, planning to live with the three Wang Yuan brothers tonight.

A dozen of their hunting dogs stayed here, after all, the dogs were also very tired from chasing their prey in the wind and snow, and as long as time permitted, the dogs would also be allowed to rest for a while.

Wang Yuan went to the river to dig ice to get water, and when he came back with a bucket of water, he happened to see Wang Hu teasing the dog.

"Brother! Uncle Zhuzi's dogs are really good dogs, if only these dogs were ours. ”

"What nonsense are you talking about? Stop playing with the dogs, come and chop wood for the fire! ”

"Okay!"

Wang Hu reluctantly touched the dog's head, and then began to chop wood with an axe, while his cousin Wang Meng was handling venison, bear meat, and wild boar, and several hunting dogs lay at his feet, snorting white air.

Soon after.

After the food was boiled in the iron pot, the pillar that went to get things, Big Eyes, and Lao Fu also walked back from the east, leaving their footprints on the thick snow.

"Look what we've got! Sticky bean buns! The pillar laughed.

Big Eyes carried a small cloth bag and said, "I still have pine nuts and dried blueberries here."

"Huh? Why do you bring pine nuts and dried blueberries with you in the mountains? ”

The big-eyed and sneering didn't talk, and the old man with a shotgun on his back and his hand next to him said enviously: "His wife will hurt people, these things are all brought by his wife."

Instantly, everyone else laughed.

Big Eyes was a little embarrassed, and he directly hated the past and wrestled with Lao Fu, and Lao Fu was useless and was directly thrown on the snow by Big Eyes.

The snow layer is very thick, and it doesn't hurt to fall on it, it's just a joke.

In the cold old forest, hot water is very important, in fact, it is also possible to burn snow to get water, but it is too slow, so they still choose to go to the small river to dig ice to get water.

The water in the creek flows fast, and the ice is thinner.

But when Wang Yuan and the others took the tools to fetch water again, Lao Fu accidentally trampled a large piece of snow.

"it!"

Lao Fu only had time to scold, and directly fell from the hill slope with the snow, and with the floating snow, Lao Fu's whole person disappeared.

"Quick! Save! ”

Throwing down the bucket, several people threw off their arms and ran quickly, and ran down the slope for dozens of meters before they found Lao Fu, only to see Lao Fu's whole body planted upside down - the upper half of his body was stuck in the snow, and his two legs were exposed and upside down.

"Come on, let's get him out!"

"One, two, three!"

Kuhe~

Wang Yuan and Zhu Zi each lifted a leg, and directly pulled out the old wilt like pulling a radish out.

The latter's frozen face was red, and his thick mustache was covered with a lot of broken snow, so he hurriedly dug out his dogskin hat and put it on, and looked uphill while scolding.

"Why is the snow falling...... Forehead? ”

I saw a pine tree and some small shrubs in the middle of the slope, and the pine trees grew sideways outward.

The snow had covered the pine trees and bent the shrubs, making it look like it was flat, but the inside was empty.

"It's really bad luck to step on a horse, smack! Okay, let's go. Lao Fu felt that he was making a fool of himself, his face was red, he took a few steps forward and then turned back: "No, what about the keg I was carrying?"

"Hahaha~"

The others burst into laughter, feeling that the stunned old wilt was quite funny.

Finally, a small bucket was dug out of the snowdrift, and after fetching water, he returned to the ground.

Dinner was much more sumptuous than lunch, in addition to pork, bear meat, venison, sticky bean buns, fish soup, pickles, and dried blueberries brought by his daughter-in-law.

Feast on it, and then sing Yangge around the fire, and the cold wind doesn't seem so cold under the lively atmosphere.

As the night deepens.

A few people who had been playing for a while sat back by the fire, chatting while baking the fire, and talking about some superstitious hunting anecdotes, and time flew by.

Wang Yuan took a sip of the steaming fish soup, which was fresh and spicy, but it was indeed fragrant, and then he ate another dried blueberry.

The sweet and sour taste of dried blueberries is okay, in fact, the old men generally don't like to eat this thing, and most of the dried blueberries are snacks for the children at home.

In this era, everyone is very poor, and many families do not spend money to buy snacks for their children, they all make their own.

Eating dried blueberries and listening to the chatter of Wang Hu and Big Eyes on the right, Wang Yuan looked up slightly at the stars in the sky.

He misses his family a little, especially the little girl who is like a little tail, always shouting "second brother and second brother" behind him, and of course, the clingy big fat cat at home.

"The living conditions here are too poor and too cold, so it's better to be at home."

It was almost 10 o'clock in the night before everyone went into the little nest, and the dogs could not get in, so they had to sleep around the fire, which was quite warm.

Lying in the ground nest, Wang Yuan is a pillar on his left, and his cousin Wang Meng is on his right, although it is a little awkward to crowd him, he feels quite relieved.

"There is great strength in numbers, and you are not afraid of trouble, sleep!"

Wang Yuan soon fell into a deep sleep.

In the early hours of the morning, Wang Yuan felt in a daze that the pillar next to him had left the ground.

The latter was afraid that the dogs would be frozen, so he burned the half-dead fire again, and then went back to sleep in the den.

Early the next morning.

Just when Wang Yuan and the other 6 people were eating breakfast and preparing to go to hunt wild boars later, in Wangjiatun in the distance, Wang Yuan's parents, parents and little girl were also eating.

At the most lively time, there were 6 people in the family, but now there are only 3 people, which seems to be much more deserted.

"Mom, why is the second brother going?"

The little girl secretly fed the three puppies some sticky bean bun skin, and then said in a milky voice.

"Didn't I tell you, your second brother went hunting."

"Oh, when is he coming back? I want to eat fried cakes. "The little girl can say whatever she thinks, and every sentence is the truest thought in her heart.

Dad and Mom were stunned for a moment: "O_o??"

"Do you miss your second brother, or do you want to eat the fried cake he bought? Haha~"

……

After breakfast, Wang Yuan and the others set off.

Squeak squeak~

Walking through the thick snow, the snow was so thick in some places that it reached your knees.
