Chapter 53: Dispute over Deer Hunting (1)

When the doe saw her baby coming, her mother's love made her bear no regard for the pain she suffered, but she still stood strong and allowed the two fawns to suck the milk. When it noticed that there was some movement on Zhang Shaofei's side, it raised its head, looked at Zhang Shaofei, and called at him softly. Its gaze and cry were full of pleading.

The two fawns also seemed to have spotted Zhang Shaofei, but they did not abandon their mother in a panic and ran away.

"Ah, what a poor third mother and son!" Zhang Shaofei was deeply moved by the affectionate licking of calves between the mother and son of the sika deer, felt an itchy throat, kept blinking his eyes, and a layer of tears soon covered his eyes.

Faced with this situation, Zhang Shaofei's heart was churning: if this doe is caught and killed by the hunters for cooking, even if the two poor fawns escape, they will also lose their mother, mother's love, and the opportunity to breastfeed, that is to say, they will lose the ability to survive, and in the end they can only be a dead end, which is a miserable thing for a family of three lives!

Thinking of this, Zhang Shaofei couldn't stop the impulse in his heart, hurriedly stepped forward, and squatted down beside the doe.

Seeing that Zhang Shaofei had no ill will towards their mother and son, the two fawns just retreated a few steps back, and kept stomping their feet in fear beside them.

Zhang Shaofei vigorously broke the trap holding the doe with both hands, pulled its right foot out of its sharp teeth, and then pulled out the sharp arrow on the doe, threw it on the ground, caressed the doe's body in a friendly way, and said, "You hurry up and run away with the child." ”

The doe knew from Zhang Shaofei's series of actions just now that this young man had come to rescue him, and at this moment he seemed to understand Zhang Shaofei's words, looked at him with grateful eyes, and nodded lightly at him, and wanted to leave, but it staggered forward and only took a few steps, its body tilted to the side, it stood unsteadily, and fell to the ground.

The two fawns next to them screamed involuntarily when they saw the doe fall to the ground.

Zhang Shaofei saw that the doe's two wounds were still bleeding, and knew that it was not lightly injured. Even if it can walk away, if it can't stop bleeding, it will slowly bleed too much and die in the mountains.

"No, the first priority is to inject blood into this doe's wound!" Zhang Shaofei stood on tiptoe, looked around, searching, saw that there were no mountain herbs nearby that could stop the bleeding, thought about it, remembered that he had picked hemostatic mountain herbs by the mountain stream not far from here, so he raised his finger and pointed to the side of the mountain stream, and said to the doe: "Don't be afraid, I will take you over there and collect medicine for you to stop the bleeding." With that, he squatted down, picked up the injured doe, and walked towards the mountain stream.

The two fawns were quite sensible, and followed Zhang Shaofei, that is, followed their mother out of this dangerous place that almost cost their mother her life.

The sun rises in the middle of the sky, the mountain wind is blowing, and the sound of the surrounding forest waves is high and low.

Not long after Zhang Shaofei left with his doe in his arms, a group of hunters hurriedly ran towards this direction, they were Zhong Hanqiang, a hunter from Honggang Village, and his group of brothers.

The arrow in the sika doe was shot by Zhong Hanqiang.

Zhong Hanqiang They were hunting in the mountains today, and after a long time, they were about to return empty-handed, when they suddenly found a sika deer walking in the bushes in the distance, so they quietly touched forward, pulled the bow and arrows, and shot at the target.

After being hit by the arrow, the sika deer fled quickly towards the mountain in a panic, Zhong Hanqiang took the people of Honggang Village to chase after the blood stains left by the sika deer when they escaped, and chased them until they reached the barren grass on the small hill, and saw a large pool of blood on the ground, but there was no trace of the sika deer.

The strong man next to Zhong Hanqiang who is five big and three thick is Zhong Hanqiang's younger brother Zhong Hanwei. He jumped forward, bent down and picked up the arrow from the barren grassy ground, identified it slightly, handed it to Zhong Hanqiang, and said, "Brother Hanqiang, this is your arrow." ”

Zhong Hanqiang took the sharp arrow and took a little look: indeed, this is the arrow he shot just now, and the bright red blood stains on the arrow have not yet dried, so he shook the sharp arrow and said to Zhong Hanwei: "Brother Hanwei, after I shot this arrow just now, I obviously heard a scream from the sika deer behind the bushes in the distance, and then I saw it desperately running towards this side. Now, there was undried blood on the arrow, and it was clear that my arrow had hit the sika deer. ”

The Orions of Honggang Village who followed Zhong Hanqiang's brothers to gossip:

"Yes, I also saw Brother Han Qiang's arrow directly hit the sika deer."

"Why is this arrow the only thing left now, and the sika deer is missing here?"

"Could it be that the injured sika deer will fly away?"

"The prey that has been in hand is gone, which means that the fat pork is put to the mouth but there is no food to eat."

At this time, an attentive man found the trap hidden in the grass and cried out: "Be careful! Someone has a trap installed here! ”

"Who installed this trap?"

"Was this trap installed by the people of Liangtianzhai?"

Zhong Hanwei lowered his head to identify for a while, thought for a while, pointed to the trap, and said, "This trap was installed by the people of Liangtianzhai,"

Zhong Hanqiang asked, "You didn't see the wrong eye, right?" ”

Zhong Hanwei affirmed: "I dare to guarantee that I will not be wrong." Except for the people in Liangtianzhai around here, no one else will install animal traps here. ”

Someone in Honggang Village made a judgment: "In this way, the sika deer must have been taken away by the people of Liangtianzhai." ”

The corners of Zhong Hanqiang's mouth showed a contemptuous look: "Hmph, it's from Liang Tianzhai again?!" They actually want to get something for nothing in the hands of Lao Tzu, it's not so cheap! ”

Zhong Hanwei said loudly: "Whoever catches the prey in the mountains should belong to whom, this is the rule in our mountains for thousands of years. ”

Zhong Hanqiang vented the resentment in his heart: "They are shaving our eyebrows for nothing. ”

The people next to him also coaxed: "Yes, the people of Liangtianzhai are really too deceitful to do this!" ”

"We can't stop there!"

"Ask them to return the sika deer we hunted!"

In the face of the surging crowd feelings, Zhong Hanqiang made up his mind, and his voice was like thunder: "The grievances and grievances with them in the past must be settled with them face to face today." ”

Just when Zhong Hanqiang, Zhong Hanwei and others were indignant, Liang Zhenlian and her father Liang Futian and brother Liang Zhenhui appeared from the mountain road over there, followed by several young hunters.

Liang Futian held a rope and a bamboo pole, while Liang Zhenhui held a sharp hunting fork. From their radiant faces, it could be seen that they had heard Liang Zhenlian's report and had now come to harvest the prey. As they walked, they happily talked about how the sika venison should be distributed tonight and how it should be cooked.

Their voices were particularly noisy in the silence of the mountains and forests.

After Zhong Hanwei heard the voice, he tiptoed over and pointed to the mountain road over there: "Ah, Brother Hanqiang, look, the people from Liangtianzhai are here." ”

Zhong Hanqiang said stupidly: "Okay, they came uninvited this time, so we don't have to go to their village to settle accounts with them." ”

Liang Futian also saw Zhong Hanqiang and others not far away, and asked Liang Zhenhui sideways: "What are the people from Honggang Village doing when they come to the place where we installed animal traps?" ”

Liang Zhenhui seemed to feel something, and there was a bone in his words: "Who knows what kind of ghost fetus they are pregnant?" We'll know when we get there. ”

Liang Futian speculated: "They saw that we caught a sika deer and wanted to come to get a piece of the pie, right?" ”

Liang Zhenhui said angrily: "Hmph, will they do good things when they come?" In the past, we installed traps to catch the prey, only to leave blood stains, but the prey was gone, and I think this time they want to repeat the same trick. ”

Liang Futian said disdainfully: "No, I have to settle the account with them face to face today!" ”

Liang Zhenhui made up his mind: "Yes, we can't let them continue to do whatever they want!" ”

Talking, talking, Liang Futian, Liang Zhenhui and others came to the trap, and saw that the front was empty, and there was no prey.
