Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

Along with the people's cries for help, there were also the angry grunts of wild boars.

Li Long felt that it was a bit troublesome.

On the southeast hillside, less than fifty meters away from where he had set the trap, there was a broad-leaved forest. Now there was a man climbing on a tree. The tree was slightly thinner than the man's waist, with a diameter of about twenty guilds. The man had climbed to a place more than three meters above the ground, stepping on the horizontal branches and trying desperately to climb up.

Below, a large sow wild boar was pushing against the tree again and again. It seemed that she would not stop until the tree was pushed down.

Seeing that the man was fine for the time being, Li Long looked towards the location of the trap.

There are no wild boars here anymore. The branches above the pit have been trampled down, and the cries of wild boars can be faintly heard from inside.

Li Long was quite happy, it seemed that he had found something. But why would the big sow go to push the person on the tree?
He walked over and saw a trail of footprints running from the trap to the tree. The footprints were not obvious at the trap, but when Li Long was shoveling the ground yesterday, he missed some in that direction. There were footprints and wild boar hoof prints on the soil, and the footprints were more obvious when crossing the stream.

Li Long roughly guessed that the man must have been discovered by the female wild boar when he ran over to check the wild boar in the trap. The female wild boar mistakenly thought that he was the one who dug the trap, so she came over to dig it.

The female wild boar was very big, and she even had fangs. She must have weighed nearly two hundred kilograms and was very ferocious!

Two trees with a diameter of about ten centimeters nearby had been knocked down by it. I don't know whether this person was on the tree before, or the sow wild boar thought the tree was in the way.

Did this person think that wild boars were domestic pigs and could be driven away with just a bang?
"Help, help!" The man saw Li Long and shouted, "Come and help me! Boss, come and help me!"

Li Long thought the man's voice sounded familiar, and when he looked again, he found that it was the one who exchanged Fritillaria for meat yesterday!
The one in tattered clothes.

Li Long immediately understood something. This person must have bad intentions. He knew that he was setting a trap, so he came early to watch. He probably wanted to take advantage of him, right?
There are kind people these days, but there are also evil people and selfish people. Li Long would not be so casual to be nice to someone. He has his own kindness, but at this time he did not hesitate to speculate about others with malice.

But at this time, seeing that the tree was already shaking, and not knowing whether the wild boar would stop until it knocked the tree down, Li Long raised his gun and aimed at that side.

At a distance of fifty meters, Li Long was confident that he could kill the wild boar, but he had no intention of taking the wild boar, as the meat would not taste good if he killed it as it was too tough.

Just these wild boars in the pit are enough to cause me trouble.

He could tell that there was more than one wild boar in the pit.

"Hurry up and hit it. If you hit it, give me a leg." The man looked at Li Long aiming at the wild boar and suddenly shouted, "Aim more. I'm here as bait. This pig won't run away."

When he shouted like that, Li Long suddenly put down his gun, turned off the safety, and stopped shooting.

Damn it, I originally wanted to save him, but this guy doesn’t seem very smart, so I just don’t care.

He walked to the trap and looked down, and saw two half-grown wild boars in the pit, and two young wild boars.

But the little wild boar's head was motionless, and it was not known whether it died from the fall or from being crushed. Its mouth was full of blood.

One of the two half-grown wild boars had an injured leg, but the other one was quite energetic, but now it was a bit agitated. After all, the space down there was small and there were four more pigs squeezed in.

Li Long regretted not bringing the tractor over. He thought about it and turned back. If he didn't bring the tractor over, he wouldn't be able to get back by himself. It would be much more convenient if he had the tractor. He went straight home after he was done.

"Save me, save me!" The man saw Li Long was about to leave and shouted hurriedly, "You can kill me at most, and I don't want anything else!"

The female wild boar also saw Li Long, slowed down, and when she saw that Li Long was not coming over, she actually continued to push forward.

Li Long would not go over there. This wild boar is so big and so fierce now. It cannot be killed with one shot. There is nothing to hide nearby, and he does not have time to climb a tree!

From a distance, Li Long aimed at the wild boar and fired a shot. The wild boar was startled and then ran away.

The man in the tree breathed a sigh of relief and shouted loudly:

"thank you!"

He said thank you, but he didn't really mean it. Li Long didn't care about that and just shouted:

"You'd better not move the wild boar in the trap, or my gun will kill you!"

That person really had this idea. After hearing what Li Long said, he became a little worried.

While hesitating on the tree, Li Long had already run far away.

The man thought for a while and decided to get down first. But just as he got down from the tree, before he could even catch his breath, he heard the angry humming again!
The sow boar is back!
Is the wild boar so smart? It even knows how to come back and attack! The man was so scared that he immediately climbed up the tree again, leaving the bag behind!
Li Long was not really worried that the man would get the wild boars away. There were two little wild boars below, and the man might not dare to go down. Besides, it would take some effort to get the wild boars up. In that time, he drove the tractor back.

Li Long walked and trotted back to the wooden house, took out the crank from the house, and took two basins and several bags, threw them on the tractor bucket, and shook the tractor. When he was about to leave, someone came running over on a horse.

Polati.

"Hey, Li Long, do you have any wine? I have two kilograms of Fritillaria here, do you have any wine to exchange?"

"Yes." Li Long had no choice but to get off the tractor again. It was not easy to offend the forestry team, so he wasted a few minutes. He opened the small room, took out a three-liter basket of loose wine and handed it over, saying:

"It's all wine in here. Two kilograms of Fritillaria, that's about it." Loose wine costs less than two yuan per kilogram.

"So much exchange?" Bolati was shocked. There must be five or six bottles, right?

"Well, smell it, it's pure grain wine. But don't drink too much, the alcohol content is quite high." Fifty-proof liquor doesn't make you drunk, but it makes you drunk quickly.

Bolati got off the horse, unscrewed the lid, took off the small lid inside, held it in his hands and tasted it, then exhaled:

"Good wine!"

Then he closed the lid and gave Li Long a thumbs up:
"Okay, you're my good friend! You're a good friend! I'll ask you to exchange my Fritillaria for mine later!"

"Okay, I have something to do now, you go back, I have to go do something quickly."

"What's the matter? Do you need help?" Li Long's "generosity" made Bolati like him more and he took the initiative to offer help.

"No, I caught a few wild boars with traps, and I want to bring them back." Li Long said, "If you see any of these things later, such as wild boars, roe deer, red deer, bears, etc., tell me, and you can exchange them for wine. Deer antlers can also be exchanged for wine and food."

"Okay, okay." Bolati nodded, then picked up the wine, mounted his horse and left with satisfaction.

Li Long locked the door and drove the tractor over there.

Before Li Long arrived, he heard the shrill and broken cry for "Help" again.

what's going on?
Li Long saw that the wild boar was still butting against the tree and the man was still shouting for help on the tree.

What's going on? Is this guy a wild boar? Didn't he just scare it away? Why is he back again?

However, when the wild boar heard the sound of the tractor, it stopped, looked over here, and finally turned and left.

The people on the tree looked in Li Long's direction. Although they felt relieved and a little grateful, they were also ashamed and angry.

He was so scared that he peed.

If it had been ten or twenty minutes later, the tree would have been knocked down!

The tree was about to fall, and the man felt that he was doomed! The boar's tusks were at least ten centimeters long, like daggers!

Li Long ignored this guy and drove the tractor to the pit. After turning off the engine, he took out the basin and bag. Then he took the gun, aimed at the edge of the pit, and killed the two half-grown wild boars with two shots.

After killing them, they immediately went down and brought up the two wild boars one after another, and then brought up the two little wild boars as well.

The living one was put directly into the truck bed. It weighed five or six kilograms and could not jump out anyway. The dead one would be gutted later.

There was water nearby, so Li Long began to skin and gut the wild boar by the water.

The man walked over slowly and watched Li Long skinning and gutting the wild boar.

Li Long's Type 56 automatic rifle was right next to him. He took a step towards it out of curiosity or some other idea. Li Long gestured with his knife:

"You'd better not move. That's a gun. I also have a knife. It's easy to lose control with this thing." The man said with a forced smile:

"I'm just curious... I used to be a militiaman..."

"Since you have been a militiaman, you should know that it is best not to touch other people's guns!" Li Long took the gun and put it on his back and continued to skin the wild boar.

"You've gained a lot this time." The man made small talk, "Well..."

"You'd better leave. I'm not sure if the wild boar will come over after you leave. If it comes again, I don't think I will have time to come back. The wild boar seems to have set its sights on you. So..."

Li Long lowered his head to skin the wild boar while speaking slowly, "I'm also curious about how you can escape then."

When the man heard this, he immediately stopped talking and looked around in panic. However, when he saw the wild boar that Li Long's men had almost skinned, he couldn't help but say:

"Look, you have quite a bit of wild boar meat today. I wonder..."

"No, you'd better leave now." Li Long interrupted him.

The man gritted his teeth and said again:

"Just think of it as my mother-of-pearl in exchange. The day after tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow! The day after tomorrow I can exchange it with the mother-of-pearl!"

"Let's talk about it when we get the Fritillaria!" Li Long was not moved at all.

Seeing that Li Long was unmoved, this person finally turned around and left.

Li Long ignored him and continued to skin and gut the wild boar. He would be busy for a while.

The two half-grown wild boars weighed about 50 to 60 kilograms each. It was still quite cool here. After a while, no flies came over, but a few wasps did come over. Li Long regretted leaving in such a hurry that he didn't bring some salt with him.

After dealing with the two big wild boars, the sun was almost up. The small wild boar was easier to deal with, so Li Long quickly skinned it, cleaned out its internal organs, intestines and stomachs, and without washing them thoroughly, he put them on the tractor and drove towards the wooden house.

Arriving at the wooden house, Li Long opened the door and went inside to get some salt, which he rubbed on the three wild boars. Seeing that the living little wild boar was still digging for the meat of the big wild boar, he tied it up. It wasn't tied too tightly, but at least it would not move around.

After thinking about it, Li Long put all the fritillaria in the house and the roe deer skin into a bag, hung it behind the seat, then locked the door and drove the tractor out of the mountain.

After crossing the Qingshui River, we turned onto the Wuyi Highway and headed east. By the time we arrived at the big yard, the sun was already setting.

It was still early for Gu Xiaoxia to get off work. After Li Long entered the yard, he saw that the three little deer were not running around, so he thought they must be in the glass house.

I got off the tractor and looked over there. Sure enough, they were there. The water in the basin had been drunk up. The three little guys cried anxiously when they saw Li Long. Li Long smiled and added feed to them, gave them water, and then closed the door.

Li Long planned to put a half-grown wild boar here. He cut the wild boar apart and put the meat in a basin to pull it out. The kitchen was still quite cold at this time, so he didn't worry about it going bad for a while. However, he took out two legs from the basin. He planned to put one leg with Lao Shu Luo and one with Gu Boyuan.

There are more people to take care of now, and all aspects have to be taken into consideration.

After putting the meat away and spreading the Fritillaria in the side room to dry, Li Long drove the tractor out of the yard again. He had to first send the remaining wild boar and offal back to the team.

There is a large family over there, and they need a lot of meat. Although a lot of meat was put down earlier, I think there is not much left.

The tractor turned a corner at the big meat canteen, and Li Long bought a few buns. He hadn't eaten lunch, so he was hungry now, but he probably wouldn't have any food at home, and he had to come back in the evening, so he couldn't wait for them to cook.

The tractor arrived at the stable first, put down one leg, and handed the little wild boar to Uncle Luo. Li Long went to Gu's house again. Gu Boyuan was busy in the vegetable field, and he was a little puzzled when he saw Li Long, as he had only been gone for two days.

"A wild boar was trapped in a pit today. I'm sending you a leg." Li Long said, raising the wild boar's leg.

"You are quite capable." Gu Boyuan would naturally not refuse the good things sent by his son-in-law, "Did the county leave any?"

"I left more than this." Li Long said with a smile, "You can sort it out. I have to go home and go back to the county in the evening."

"Go ahead." After hearing Li Long say that he still had to go back to the county, Gu Boyuan urged him, "Drive slowly on the road. Although there are not many cars, you still have to pay attention to safety."

"Got it." Li Long responded, started the tractor and drove south.

The neighbor heard the noise, and after Li Long left, he came to Gu Boyuan's yard and asked:

"Your son-in-law brought you something?"

"Yes, they caught a wild boar in the mountains and sent me a leg." Gu Boyuan said boastfully, "How can I finish it all by myself? I have to make it into bacon, what a hassle."

He said it was too much trouble, but he couldn't hide the pride on his face.

The neighbor left grumblingly. This scholar was also very face-saving. If you think it's troublesome, then give it to me?

Of course he didn't say anything, because he knew it was useless to say it. How could anyone give it to him?
Li Long drove the tractor to his eldest brother's house. Li Qingxia and Tao Daqiang were tidying up the net in the yard. They were a little surprised and happy to hear the sound of the tractor.

When Li Long drove the tractor into the yard, they had already cleared the space.

"Why are you back again?" Li Qingxia asked.

Li Jianguo and Liang Yuemei went to work, Du Chunfang and Chen Lirong were working in the front yard, and came over when they heard the noise.

"I'll kill a wild boar and bring it back to you," said Li Long.

"Just stay there and eat." Li Qingxia complained, "Your wife needs to eat too, and you have to eat something good in the mountains."

"I'll keep it." Li Long said with a smile.

Du Chunfang came over at this time. Li Long greeted his mother and also asked after his second sister-in-law.

Tao Daqiang helped Li Long carry the wild boar down, and Li Long asked:
“How are the fish selling?”

"I went to Shicheng to sell it today. It sold really well there. My uncle and I will go there again tomorrow." Tao Daqiang said with a smile, "I also ran into my brother-in-law. His mutton also sold well."

"Xingbang also said that his sheep are almost sold out, and he wants you to see if you can bring another load of sheep over."

"Okay." Li Long thought for a moment and said, "I'll go into the mountains early tomorrow morning. If my friends haven't moved, then it'll be fine."

"Well. You take a rest and don't worry about the meat. Eat the meat later before leaving." Li Qingxia said.

"No, the meat in the yard over there in the county hasn't been cleaned up yet, and I have to go back to get that." Li Long said, "I'll leave after a short rest. Daqiang, you can cut some meat and take it back later."

"No, no, I have more at home." Tao Daqiang blushed and waved his hands quickly.

"Why are you being polite?" Li Long said. If Tao Daqiang wasn't here, he wouldn't have gone out of his way to deliver the gifts, but now that he was here, it was no problem to share some of the gifts.

Li Qingxia and Tao Daqiang set up the net, and then began to cut the meat with great interest.

Li Long was watching from the side. The old man was not very skilled at this, but there was no need to be so serious about this meat, as it was all going to go into his mouth. Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Long drove the tractor away.

After the meat was cut into pieces, Du Chunfang and Chen Lirong stewed it while Li Qingxia and Tao Daqiang went to lower the nets. After the nets were lowered, Tao Daqiang wanted to go back, but Li Qingxia forced him to come back and left with a piece of meat weighing three or four kilograms.

The two agreed to get the nets a little earlier tomorrow and then go to Shicheng early to sell fish.

Tao Daqiang also agreed to it after seeing that Li Qingxia had traveled dozens of kilometers back and forth today and there was nothing unusual. A few dozen yuan a day, this money is so sweet!
Li Long's tractor rumbled back to the big yard, right behind Gu Xiaoxia.

Gu Xiaoxia was very happy when she saw the tractor in the yard. Then she saw Li Long processing wild boar meat and asked in surprise:
"You're hunting wild boars again? That's awesome!"

Li Long was also very happy when he heard what Gu Xiaoxia said. He could tell that Gu Xiaoxia was sincere in what she said, which was precious.

Li Long was butchering the meat while Gu Xiaoxia was preparing dinner, and soon the aroma of food wafted through the yard.

This is life, happiness in the ordinary. Life is not full of surprises, just this ordinary life, Li Long likes it very much. He doesn't want to go to the mountains anymore, it's so nice to stay here! (End of this chapter)
