Chapter 944: Hunting for the Winter

When Old Man Mi said this, his eyes became vigilant: "Think about it, a soul abandoned by the mountain god means that he was disgusted by the mountain god, and in the process of reincarnating as an adult, he took the life of a baby, how can people not mind such a dead soul is born again." ”

Song Siyuan explained: "Old man, the complexion of the albino is also because of this? ”

Old Man Mi nodded: "Indeed, the mountain god demolishes the soul who made mistakes out of the sacred mountain, just to let this soul suffer from birth, old age, sickness and death, poverty and loneliness, so as to achieve the purpose of educating him, so that the child's whole body is also a part of the suffering of illness, and he can suffer until he reaches adulthood, so that he can be taken back by the mountain god again after entering the sacred mountain." ”

"Such an albino, also called a mountain god boy, or a farmer boy, is easy to be abandoned as a monster because of his skin color before he becomes an adult, and he will not live to adulthood at all, and when he can really live to adulthood, he will probably have experienced all kinds of hardships in the world, and the mountain god will personally call them back."

"Call them back personally?" Yue Guanchao became curious.

"Hmm." Old man Mi nodded to the people around him: "Albinism is a mountain god boy, after adulthood, as long as he enters Shennongjia, most of them will never come out again, the old man said that Albinism has suffered and atoned for his sins, and was taken back by the mountain god to continue to be a messenger." ”

"So, do you know of such people? Or, in recent decades, have there been any albinos born. ”

Song Siyuan and the others already knew in advance that the albino was actually a ghost Fang person with pure blood, and the purpose of asking this question was just to ask for the news of the albinos nearby, perhaps, there was news of Banshu's life experience here.

"Shhh

Old Man Mi frowned: "This, this era is a long time ago, and it will be a few more than thirty or forty years ago, and at that time, there was indeed such a person in the Nongshen Village." ”

Thirty or forty years ago...... Ban Shu's age is already thirty-five years old, if you calculate it this way, the albinist who appeared back then is likely to be related to him, Song Siyuan knew some of the stories, and immediately said anxiously: "This person, can you let us meet?" ”

Listening to her words, Old Man Mi shook his head helplessly: "Then none of us will be able to see each other, we are missing, or according to the old man's words, we were picked up by the mountain god." ”

He coughed a few times and played with the walnuts and said, "Back then, this incident was quite a big one...... At that time, Saturnalia Village was still a burial village. ”

Decades ago, in addition to the collection of corpses in the funeral village, there were also many hunters who came to Shennongjia to hunt.

The hunters in the village come and go, there is no fixed household, many people have forgotten about it, you are standing in front of him, he may not know you, but there is a family he will never forget - the easternmost part of the burial village, a family surnamed Zheng, he remembers so clearly, it is because this family took in an albino!

Albinozi, not to mention the burial village, is to look at the villages, towns and cities around Shennongjia, which are all symbols of bad luck, ordinary people can't hide, how can they still make do with it.

But this family just wore umbrellas on sunny days and did not take the usual path.

This situation can be all because this albino once saved Orion's life.

Back then, it was already snowing in the middle of winter, and when the Zheng family moved in late autumn, they didn't even have a house, and when they built a house in the Dongtou Wild Forest, it was already winter.

In a poor and remote place like the burial village, there is not even a slightly flat field, so they rely on the mountains to grow some food, or they can only go into the mountains to hunt for money and buy winter grain.

Since the family has just moved here and built a new house, how poor and poor is how poor it is, the hunter surnamed Zheng decided to go into the mountains to catch up with the winter famine in order to have winter food, so as to hunt dozens of prey, and first exchange them for money, grain, grain and charcoal, so that the family can have a peaceful New Year.

What is a winter famine?

Late autumn is over, midwinter is coming, the hunters who rely on the mountains to eat rush to the mountains before the animals hibernate, and go into the mountains to hunt again, which is called chasing the winter famine.

Whether it is in the northeast, grassland, or northwest, as long as the hunters who rely on the mountains to eat, they have all experienced the winter famine.

Of course, if you can prepare the money, grain, meat and charcoal for the winter before the winter, there is no need to rush to the winter famine, but anyone who wants to rush into the mountains in the winter either does not have anything ready, or, is in a hurry to use the money, and has to press the winter into the mountains to hunt.

Whatever the reason, catching the winter famine is not an easy task!

There is a way to come and go in the cold and summer, the autumn harvest and the winter hide, the autumn is a good season for the farmers to harvest and the animals to stick to the fat, the hunter rushes to the autumn, as long as it is a veteran who is not lazy, he can definitely return with a full load, and so the late autumn time is over, it is difficult to hunt again.

Hunting should also pay attention to homeopathy, in winter there are not many animals out of the activity, in winter, animals either hibernating, or also have to hide in the cold nest, all hiding in the nest can not come out.

At this time, hunting is useless to rely on your legs and feet to be diligent, it all depends on your own luck and experience.

Experienced old hunters know where animals like to nest, and they also know that they can find animal nests by following the traces of defecation, and they can also find a lot of good things by relying on this.

It's just one thing to note, when you find the animal nest, you can get the prey, but it is also equivalent to provoking the animal, once the animal is detected, the little beast is not a threat, the tiger, wolf, horns, deer and fox are such big beasts, but they will fight with people.

Orion Lao Zheng belongs to the extremely experienced Orion, if he is placed in other wild forests, he is destined to return with a full load, but unfortunately, he ran into Shennongjia.

Shennongjia itself is a huge labyrinth, and in the middle of winter, snow falls everywhere, a vast expanse, animals do not go out easily, he is in a hurry to buy money, grain, meat and charcoal, it is impossible to turn back, so he can only continue to rush in, at the same time, also have crooked thoughts.

In his opinion, it is not enough to hunt a few pheasants and hares to exchange money in the market for money, and if you want to save effort, you have to work valuable animals.

What is the most valuable thing in today's bazaar? Tiger skins, wolf skins, fox skins, deer skins, of course.

Orion Lao Zheng decided to give up the hare and pheasant, and worked these beasts, and the effort paid off, and he really asked him to use the meat of the pheasant and hare to squat to a she-wolf.

In the cold winter, the she-wolf sniffed the smell of the hare and came to the bait, Lao Zheng put musk powder on the hare, as long as the wolf came to bite the prey, he could rely on the smell of musk powder to find the wolf's nest.

After the she-wolf bit the hook, she vigilantly looked at the surrounding situation, made sure that she didn't find a human figure, pulled the hare and began to run into the wolf's den.

With a single gunshot, the she-wolf, who had just wanted to enter the den, was shot in the head and died outside the wolf's den.

Lao Zheng saw that the she-wolf had choked her breath, so she ran to the wolf's den to pick up the weeds, and in the wolf's den, there were six or seven wolf cubs waiting to be fed, all of them were the size of a freshly weaned puppy, and they had not even opened their eye masks.

These wolf cubs, but a rare commodity in the hunter, as long as they are small and raised by their side, they are more loyal and obedient than dogs when they grow up, plus they are wolves and are also good hunters, when they hunt in the autumn, their eyes are poisonous and they run fast, and they are still used compared to Tibetan mastiffs, even if they are not hunters, they are also bought by nearby squires and used as dogs to feed, and they are more majestic than any dog when they sneak out.

Especially this kind of wolf cub that has not been weaned, his eyes have not been opened yet, and he has no relationship with the she-wolf at all.

Orion counted, just these seven or eight wolf cubs, can be sold for nearly ten taels of silver, plus such a large she-wolf skin, a base of twenty taels of silver, this money is enough for their family to eat and drink spicy food in winter.

Now, Orion has made a difficulty!

According to the rule that Orion does not dig out the nest of the household, when hunting, when encountering a nest of beasts, at least the cubs must be left, and everything can not be brought back in a swarm, so as not to break the rules of the mountains and forests, and it also shows that Orion hunts only to survive, not to do evil things.

Originally, he just wanted to bring back the she-wolf skin, but now that the family has no rice to eat, they are cold and poor, and the rules in his heart are a little looser.

Having made up his mind, the hunter filled his pockets with the fur and straw from the wolf's den, pocketed all the wolf cubs, and at the same time sent the carcass of the she-wolf on horseback to pack up and prepare for home.

On the way back, he kept feeling cold behind him, as if something was staring at him, but when he turned back, he found that there was nothing, only snow white on the ground.

It wasn't until the evening that he looked behind him again, and saw that in the dark woods, bright and miserable green eyes began to appear, like fireflies, flickering in the darkness.

Needless to say, I also know that this must be the eyes of the wolves, and when he noticed this, Orion's old Zheng heart sank, this is the wolves coming to seek revenge.

The wild wolf is not easy to fight, that is, because the wolves are very grudgeful, blame him for being too greedy, even if the she-wolf is killed, and the wolf cubs are taken away.

At this moment, Lao Zheng could only put down the wolf cub and the she-wolf, signaling that he would admit defeat and let the wolves let him go.

At this time, it was too late, the wolves roared and scattered, frightened Lao Zheng to run fast on horseback, and in a panic, he had forgotten the route out of the mountain, and unconsciously walked to the barren mountains and mountains, and the horse's hooves slipped and fell directly down the mountain.

How can you often walk by the river without getting your shoes wet, Orion Lao Zheng is only greedy this time, and finally broke the rules and attracted the world's newspaper, if he really waits for the wolves to come down, he can't even keep his body, and he only feels greedy at the moment, and his heart is cold.

This fall hurt him a lot, and when he was unconscious, he saw the wolf eyes with green light, poking his head out of the hillside one by one, and gradually crawling down in his direction, gradually surrounded by fangs and green eyes.
