Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

It was a rare time to come to the mountain, and Han Wenzhong wanted to take Xu Shiyan with him, so he naturally refused to go down the mountain easily.

As for Xu Shiyan, he also felt that there was nothing to do at home, so he might as well wander around the mountains for a few more days, so that he could meet other prey.

In this way, the three of them lived on the mountain. One day they hunted two wild boars, the next day they met a blind man, and the day after tomorrow they met a herd of deer.

With Han Wenzhong, an experienced old hunter, he almost never misses.

Sometimes, after walking too far, Han Wenzhong can find a house left by a hunter in the mountains and forests, and stay overnight under the shelter from the wind and snow.

When I left the next day, I left firewood and some rice for the convenience of those who came after me.

Come and see, this is the mountain donkey road. There should be mountain donkeys around here.

That day, the three of them didn't take their dogs out for a walk. Han Wenzhong looked at the footprints on the snow and greeted Xu Shiyan and Han Limin.

The mountain donkey mentioned by Han Wenzhong is actually a local name for musk deer, also called musk deer.

The musk deer looks a bit like a deer, but is smaller, and neither male nor female has horns.

There is a sachet behind the belly button of the male deer musk deer, which contains musk, which is a kind of precious medicinal material and spice, and the purchase price is very high.

The musk deer is small in size, light and sensitive, and good at jumping.

Not only can you move freely on the cliffs, but you can also climb inclined trees with ease.

Fragrant deer's vision and hearing are extremely sensitive, and if there is a slight disturbance, it will run away immediately.

Moreover, musk deer often stands on the cliff to look out. Once it finds traces of natural enemies, or hunters and hunting dogs, it will immediately run away without a trace.

The musk deer likes to eat lichen and moss, and likes to eat young branches and leaves of pine trees and fir trees in winter.

Therefore, most musk deer have fixed living places, and they will not migrate to other places until the surrounding food is eaten up.

The mountain donkey road is the footprint left by the musk deer.

At a rough glance, it looks a bit like a cow's hoof print with a small number, but it is different when you carefully distinguish it.

The hind legs of musk deer are longer than the front legs. When running and jumping, the hind hooves are in front and the front hooves are behind.

Xu Shiyan lowered his head and looked around, and sure enough, he found some musk deer dung.

If the surface of the mountain donkey's dung is smooth and shiny, it means that it has just been excreted, at most two or three days.

If the epidermis has become dark and rough, it was discharged half a month ago.

If some have been dilapidated, it must have passed at least one or two months ago.

Experienced hunters can judge the elapsed time of prey through footprints, feces, etc., so as to find out the hunting rules.

Seeing the feces, Xu Shiyan knew that this group of donkeys had just passed by here for at most two days.

Han Wenzhong also found out, so he led Xu Shiyan and Han Limin along the mountain donkey road for a while.

In the distance, there seemed to be some voices, Yo... Yo... The voice came along the wind, loud and small intermittently.

Han Wenzhong waved his hand, signaling Xu Shiyan and Han Limin to hide in the bushes, with their guns ready at all times.

On the other side, Han Wenzhong pinched his nose with his hands, puffed up his cheeks, and imitated the sound of Yo... Yo Yo... Yo.

Xu Shiyan knew that this was Han Wenzhong's special skill.

Imitate the call of the female musk deer to attract the male musk deer, also calling the musk deer.

This is not easy to learn. At the beginning, Xu Shiyan studied with Han Wenzhong for several months before he managed to learn it.

Han Wenzhong can not only call musk deer, but also make horns out of birch bark and blow the sound to call deer.

Xu Shiyan has learned these methods in his previous life, but he has learned them so-so, sometimes they work well and sometimes they don't, so he doesn't use them much most of the time.

Just as Xu Shiyan was thinking wildly, the voice of Yo... Yo... in the distance became more and more clear.

Obviously, there are really musk deer coming here.

Most of the musk deer are male and female, and every winter is the season for them to find a mate.

When the male musk deer hears the female's call, he will yell and run towards the direction of the calling sound.

Han Wenzhong continued to call, and male musk deer responded from time to time in the distant woods. It sounded like there were a lot of them.

Han Wenzhong also hid in the bushes at this time, ready with a gun, and kept calling.

Xu Shiyan and Han Limin hid behind the bushes and did not dare to move. They looked out from the gaps in the bushes and kept an eye on the situation outside.

Then, I saw a group of guys with short brown hair all over their bodies.

It looks like a deer, with no horns on the forehead, a row of white hairs on both sides of the neck, slender limbs, short tail, two big and round ears, and a pair of big eyes.

The musk deer was alert by nature, with its ears pricked up and its neck tilted, it looked around cautiously, apparently looking for a female musk deer.

At this time, Xu Shiyan, Han Wenzhong, and Han Limin fired at the same time.

A burst of gunfire rang out, and several musk deer fell to the ground, while others were frightened and ran away.

This thing ran extremely fast, and disappeared in an instant.

Han Wenzhong and the others got out of the bushes and looked at the four or five musk deer that had fallen on the ground.

Today's harvest is not small. This thing can be sold for hundreds of dollars, which is no less than a black blind man.

Fragrant deer is usually rarely encountered, and even if it does, it would be useless without Han Wenzhong's means.

Before anyone approached, the musk deer ran away.

The three of them stepped forward, quickly took off the sachet, then disemboweled them, and took out the internal organs.

Uncle, do you think there is any way to capture them alive? Xu Shiyan asked Han Wenzhong while working.

Xu Shiyan never thought about it so much if it was left in the past.

Hunting is a way of making money. As long as he can make money and improve his life, Xu Shiyan will not soften his heart when he sees his prey.

But ever since Xu Shiyan met the rascal again and captured a live sable, his thinking has changed somewhat.

Extensive and savage hunting methods like the present one are very destructive to the sustainable development of organisms.

It is understandable that wild boars and badgers are harmful to farmland, and the blind man can easily hurt people.

But some wild animals that are of great economic value and do not cause much harm to people, such as sable, musk deer, and deer.

Can these animals find a way to capture them alive and raise them artificially?

After listening to Xu Shiyan's words, Han Wenzhong smiled and shook his head.

It's hard, musk deer is a cautious animal by nature, and it's not easy to set a trap to catch it.

Besides, even if caught, how to raise it? Don't you have to kill and take the sachet if you keep it?

People in this day and age don't know that musk can also be obtained in another way, and it doesn't need to harm the life of musk deer.

Therefore, hunters directly kill the male musk deer, and then cut off the sachet.

Others don't know, but Xu Shiyan knows.

In later generations, forest musk deer, civets, muskrats and other animals were cultivated artificially, and musk can be extracted without killing them.

Xu Shiyan felt that this might be a way. If the research made it clear, there would be no need to hurt the lives of so many musk deer.

It is not likely that these animals will become extinct in a few decades.

The method is thought up by people, think about it.
