Vol 2 Chapter 181: Uphill

Zhang Guoqing and his second brother had just cleaned up the backyard, and when they saw Father Zhang coming over, they smiled and winked at each other. It is rare that his father was too late to wake up.
Father Zhang looked around, and then looked at the pigsty strangely, but no one was seen, "It's strange, why didn't your brother get up?"
Zhang Guoqiang said with a smile: "Big brother got up, see that there is nothing wrong with going outside in the backyard. It is estimated that my sister-in-law will prepare breakfast, prepare dry food, and wait for the mountain."
"You go to the mountains, can you still make it to the city today?" Zhang Daddy hesitated and said. "You go to the mountains, can you still make it to the city today?" Zhang Daddy hesitated and said.
Zhang Guoqiang waved his hand and said helplessly: "It was all agreed a few days ago, but I can't say no. Just wait for us to recognize the way, and come back to work after eight o'clock. Our brothers eat well. Now, as soon as the eldest brother eats, we will go to their house earlier."
"Let’s go, here’s everything is cleaned up, and it’s okay. It’s going to dawn, so go early and come back early." After Zhang said, he waved his hand to let them pass. Houses, pig pens and chicken coops.
The three brothers wore old patched jackets and led Qingshan to Daqingshan. The group of people avoided passers-by at a distance, and soon reached the foot of the mountain.
Zhang Guoqing looked around. There was a little snow last night. The road was not easy to walk, but it was really good for hunting. After discussing with everyone, he arranged the tools. Zhang Guoqing took everyone familiar with him to the west.
As time passed, the sky became clear. The footprints of animals can also be seen clearly on the mountain. Several people separated into small teams and slowly walked towards the dense forest. The pheasants on the road are stupid and can't fly high. A few ignored them, and walked towards the creek as agreed.
Many trees on the periphery are yellow, and the weeds on the roadside are also old and withered. When the wind blew, the dead leaves fell from the trees. But the closer to the dense forest, the temperature is a little abnormal. Some mushrooms can be seen in some corners. In dark and humid places, you can see black fungus attached to dead wood. In the grass, you can see wild rabbits and pheasants being disturbed everywhere.
Zhang Qingshan looked in front of him and sighed again and again, "Xiao Wu, you can really find a place, this area is really undetected. Look at this place, the temperature is different. Only on the mountainside in the north can you see wild rabbits. You can see pheasants and hares everywhere here. There are traps everywhere. Good here, besides the prey, there are mountain products to pick. Look at the wild fruits. Brothers sent them. Even if you don’t hit the big head, just these things Not young or old."
Zhang Guoqing estimated that there should be hot springs nearby. He didn't intend to tell outsiders about this. When he had time, he would bring Zhou Jiao and the others over to see, maybe he could discover the secret.
At this moment, he was lying on the ground and listening quietly. He didn't find any big animals appeared. Then he stood up and said, "I think we should go to the stream in front of him first. Everyone keep your voice down. Animals are always drinking water by the stream. We sneaked over."
After speaking, I first lifted a large bag of stones and loosened the opening so that I could throw it out at any time. As for the bow and arrow on his back, he didn't encounter a big prey, so he didn't plan to use it.
Zhang Qingshan took the lead to take out the bow and arrow and let everyone prepare. After seeing everyone in order, he waved to Zhang Guoqing and signaled to wait for him to arrange. He knew that Xiao Wu had learned ten percent of his grandfather's skills.
Zhang Guoqing divided everyone into three teams, scattered from the left, middle and right, gently leading everyone to the small stream in front of them.
Zhang Qingfeng is near the edge of the boss Zhang Qingshan behind. At this moment, as soon as I saw a small stream not far away, there were several wild deer and some animals drinking water, and they were suddenly excited and just about to make a sound. Zhang Qingshan quickly covered his mouth. He had been paying attention to his cousin's behavior, and he was worried that the other party was reckless.
Wait until he sees Zhang Guoqing gesturing with his hand on the left. They nodded immediately after the middle target was the two ends. He pointed his bows and arrows to the brothers beside him, and gestured to his own deer, and the rest were a few of them and one deer. The others were casual, depending on their luck.
Quietly wait for Zhang Qingya and others on the right to make arrangements. Everyone endured the excitement and all prepared their bows and arrows. After a while, when the signal arrived, everyone quickly shot arrows.
All of a sudden, the animals on the edge of the stream screamed, and the fallen wild deer shocked other animals rushing.
The Zhang family brothers on the left, middle and right sides successively released arrows and moved closer to the middle. The wild animal that ran away saw Zhang Guoqing throwing a stone in one hand, and then fell down.
Seven or eight people looked at the wild animals on the ground, hugging each other happily and cheering. Everyone was not prepared to chase the escaping animals. They didn't look at some of the animals in the back that had long been stoned to death by Xiao Wu.
Seeing everyone’s excitement, Zhang Guoqing quickly arranged:
Don’t get excited. Let’s move these things back first, so as not to wait for the smell to usher in big things. Qingshan Brother, you can arrange. I’ll cut some branches to make a shelf and pull it back. ." After saying that, regardless of them, he hurried to chop the tree and wind the rope to make a shelf.
Zhang Qingshan listened and looked at the wild animals that fell on the ground, "Everyone first move the faraway ones here and pile them together. When Xiaowu brings the shelves, we will carry them instead. Qingya, you take two people and move them first. Qingling and Qingyan take care of the smell on the ground. There are six deer, three stupid spores, and one goat. There are enough. Let’s go back first. If you want to come back, you have to wait a few days. I think there are only deer After a run, it is estimated that this end of ours is also extinct."
Zhang Qingfeng moved a wild deer not far away, and shouted: "I knew that hunting was so good, I would have followed Xiaowu to hunt. Look at how labor-saving. Losing, losing, I'm so stupid. What?"
Zhang Qingya gave him an angry look, "If all the fights are so good, there are still wild animals in Daqingshan? This is what Xiaowu had found early. For such a fight, it will take at least a month for wild animals to come. This Don’t say anything about the land, we will come here to fight by ourselves in the future. It’s so nice, you can see wild fruits in the dense forest when it’s cold.
"I'm not stupid, why don't Qingya set up a few traps?"
"No. No traps, those wild animals will come to drink water, we will keep them. With traps, there are few wild animals. These things are no more stupid than people." Zhang Qingya shook his head, seeing that there is less smell here. Yes, I grabbed a few handfuls of herbs and went to the side.
Zhang Guoqing soon came back with two shelves, "Brothers, hurry up, put them all on, you carry them, and I will pick the rest with the rope."
Everyone hurried away after helping put it on the shelf. Zhang Guoqing carried a wild deer on his back and grabbed the stone in the bag in his hand and pressed it behind him. He threw a stone at the sight of a pheasant from time to time. Seeing that there are wild eggs, he shook his head regretfully.
After a while, there were five or six pheasants in the bamboo basket hanging on his shoulders. Jia Jiaojiao didn't like air-dried wild animals. They were specially made for Jiaojiao.
Not far from the foot of the outer mountain, Zhang Qingshan and others hurriedly put down their shelves and sat on the edge to rest. They would be happy and would not care if the snow on the ground would freeze before it melted.
Everyone saw Zhang Guoqing lightly carrying wild deer, a pile of pheasants in the bamboo basket, not even a hare.
Zhang Qingfeng's mouth opened wide, and he pointed to the bamboo basket dumbfounded, "Xiao Wu, you're not looking for mothers, are you? Male ones? And rabbits?"
Everyone laughed, knowing that this is Xiao Wu thinking about the little daughter-in-law. Otherwise, where is it that they are all pheasants?
Zhang Qingshan laughed enough before asking Zhang Guoqing, "Xiao Wu, is this the herd of deer here? Otherwise, there will be three male deer in it. Do you still know where the wild boars are?"
Zhang Guoqing saw that everyone was looking at him eagerly, and said amused: "There are wild boars on the top of the mountain, but there are wolves on the side. There is also a monkey group in the deep mountain, and there is a black bear in it. That monkey group is that. There are a lot of wild fruits, but there is a pack of wolves on the left, and there are black bears in it. I didn’t dare to go. This one is far away from there, and it’s safer. You can go to this place if you want to go to the fangs. Don’t go to other places except the village for hunting, too It's dangerous."
Zhang Qingfeng said regretfully, "I thought I could catch wild boars after going up the mountain a few more times with you. What a pity, why don't you say that the wolves are not leaving."
"Animals in the mountains have natural laws. Big fish eat small fish, and they all have their own territory. When you see wild boars, you dare not to be far away from wolves, because there are monkeys and black bears above them. They don’t go deep into the mountains. There are big beasts. More. This time the three villagers are going up the mountain with great strength. We can aim at the wild boar and the black bear. The wolf and the monkey escape fast. Seeing so many people, they will go deep into the mountains. The wild boar can't. The black bear has hidden honey. He feels dull and can't run." Zhang Guoqing said with a smile.
"Okay, we should go now, what should we do with so many things?" Zhang Qingyan looked at a pile of wild animals on the ground and said.
Zhang Qingshan looked at the game on the ground, "It was Xiaowu who took us there, so I shot one, Qingya also shot one, and Xiaowu made up the others. Let's have a wild deer in our family. , The others will be sent to the second uncle's house." After that, except for the three brothers Zhang Guoqing, they all nodded in agreement.
Zhang Guoqing said with a sullen face, "Brothers look down on me~EbookFREE.me~ or what's wrong. There are six deer in three families and two in one family, and the number of males and females is good. There are also three spores, one in each family. Don't object. , Give me the remaining goats. I have more goats, so that’s it. Let’s take them back to the uncle and they will arrange for them to sell. It’s best to sell them all. Tomorrow everyone will go up the mountain and be afraid of lack of meat?"
After speaking, the wild deer on his back led everyone to the foot of the North Mountain. He often walks along this trail, so he can go directly in through the back door of his home, without having to punch his eyes.
When he returned to Zhang Guoqing's house, he greeted everyone to put it in the backyard first and hurried to the main house.
Seeing Zhang Guoqing coming in, Zhang Dad asked in surprise: "I'm back so soon? What have you hit? What about your eldest brother?"
"They're all back here. This will be all in the backyard. I'm lucky today. There are a lot of wild animals by the creek, so we will fight around. There are two deer in the family and one spore. Our family has more goats. You show me Do you want to sell it?"
After finishing speaking, he saw Xizi planning to run to the backyard, he hurriedly shouted, "Xizi, don't run away. Go and let the grandfather and grandfather come over, saying that you have hit the prey and wait for them to come, and shout quietly."
"I see, uncle, don't worry." Xizi nodded after hearing this, and took his brothers to find someone outside.
Zhang Guoqing thought about it and said to his father: "Father, don't sell the goats, and keep the pots for the winter. Those of you and brother Zhang Luo, my second brother and I will go to the county first."
"You go to do business first. Leave the house to me and your elder brother. Your old husband and the others have already gone to the county seat. If you have something to do, you can discuss with him." Zhang Daddy said as he walked to the backyard.
Zhang Guoqing quickly followed, and whispered: "Father, I won't go to the backyard anymore. You wink and let the second brother come out. I'll go wash first." Seeing his dad nodded and watched his dad enter the backyard before turning around. Go inside the West Wing.
