Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Chapter 8 Pheasants and rabbits, sharing the prey

Away from the village, Liu Ping'an walked towards the dam.

That’s right, a water storage dam was built next to Qinjia Village. It is because of this thing that Qinjia Village can live better than other villages.

At least no one will die of thirst, and the crops can be watered to ensure the minimum water requirement.

However, due to the current drought, the water level in this reservoir is very low.

It’s almost like the moat in the old city.

Liu Ping'an walked up the mountain along the dam and slowed down only when he reached the ravine.

The situation at the foot of the mountain is really different from that on the mountain.

The wild grasses at the foot of the mountain were basically all dry and yellow, drooping on the ground.

There is water on the mountain, the vegetation is lush green, and there is vitality everywhere.

Liu Ping'an stepped on the leaves, making a continuous crisp sound. He carried a hunting rifle on his back and strolled slowly in the woods.

The reason why Liu Ping'an wanted to go into the mountains was thanks to his hobby in his previous life.

In his previous life, he loved studying plants and bought a lot of books at that time. He read books like "The Beauty of Oriental Plants" many times and memorized many herbs.

He walked and stopped in the woods, squatted down to check the vegetation, and found quite a few medicinal herbs.

"Ramie has tall stems with soft hairs on them. Its seeds can be used to clear away heat and dampness, detoxify, and remove cataracts..."

"The dogtail grass is named after its shape which resembles a dog's tail. It can remove heat, dampness and swelling..."

"Shepherd's purse, which is the wild vegetable used to make wild vegetable paste, has the effects of soothing the spleen, promoting diuresis, stopping bleeding, and improving eyesight. It has high nutritional value..."

These medicinal herbs are treasures of nature and are inexhaustible in these mountains.

However, although Liu Ping'an is familiar with the effects, he is not a doctor. If you ask him to use them alone, he is fine, but if you mix them together, he is like a blind man and knows nothing.

So Liu Ping'an didn't pick anything else except shepherd's purse.

"Hey, this...isn't this a strawberry?"

After walking around, Liu Ping'an suddenly saw a field of red fruits and hurried over.

He walked up to it, but instead of rushing over, he picked up a branch on the ground and kicked the grass to see if there was a snake in it.

As the saying goes, disturbing the grass scares the snake. Snakes are very sensitive to vibrations.

If you encounter such dense bushes, don't go over there just yet. Use a stick to hit the bushes hard to ensure that there are no poisonous snakes hiding in them.

After the fight, seeing no trace of the snake, Liu Ping'an calmly walked over and squatted down.

Liu Ping'an pulled off a fruit and took it in his hand to look at it.

"Is this a wild strawberry or a snakeberry?"

After all, Liu Ping'an has little actual use and cannot fully confirm the difference between the two fruits.

As the name suggests, snakeberry contains trace amounts of toxins and is harmful to the human body if eaten.

Liu Ping'an didn't dare to take the risk.

"By the way, I have chickens in my space."

Liu Ping'an's eyes lit up, and he sent the fruit into the space and fed it to a rooster.

The rooster didn't react at all after eating it, but instead looked around greedily.

There was no warning in the space that the rooster was poisoned.

“It’s really wild strawberries!”

Liu Ping'an happily picked a strawberry and put it into his mouth. The sweet taste instantly came to his heart. It was sweeter than the strawberries Liu Ping'an had eaten in his previous life.

“Yes, this tastes really good…”

Liu Ping'an licked his lips, picked up a few strawberries and ate a few of them, then reluctantly absorbed all the remaining strawberries into the space.

After harvesting a kind of fruit, Liu Ping'an gained confidence and continued to look for it in the woods with his head held high.

Liu Ping'an walked through another dense forest and found a few gray rabbits in a weed field, happily eating weeds.

He squatted down immediately, afraid of scaring the hare away.

"There are actually hares. I am so lucky today."

When Liu Ping'an thought of the spicy rabbit head he had eaten, his mouth couldn't help but drool.

He wiped his saliva, loaded the bullet, raised the shotgun, pulled the bolt and aimed at one of the rabbits.

But at this moment Liu Ping'an suddenly realized that he might have something wrong with his brain.

If you shoot like this, several of them will run away in an instant, and you may even scare away other animals nearby.

I still have space to use.

"I have a stupid brain. Why use a gun when I have better things to do."

Liu Ping'an patted his head, and on an idea, he brought all the wild rabbits a few meters away into the breeding farm in the space.

He looked at the hare in the space, which had not noticed any changes in the environment and was still hopping around and eating grass, and he felt secretly happy.

"It seems that this thing is invincible against things that are close. Maybe if you react quickly, you can even retract the bullet."

When Liu Ping'an thought of this, his sense of security increased greatly.

"Maybe I can challenge other large beasts."

Liu Ping'an licked his lips, stood up and looked around. Finding there were no animals, he walked around in the woods again.

I don’t know if it’s because of the drought.

Liu Ping'an walked around the mountain for a long time but didn't encounter any large wild animals.

Not even a wolf was encountered.

But he was still lucky. When he walked down the mountain along the dam, he found three pheasants in the woods beside the dam!

Pheasants are different from domestic chickens in that they have colorful feathers and can fly.

But in front of the Lingquan space, they still could not escape from Liu Ping'an's Five Finger Mountain.

There were three pheasants, two of which were roosters.

Liu Ping'an weighed them and felt that the two together weighed at least more than three pounds.

They are much thinner than the ones raised in his space and have no meat at all.

Liu Ping'an did not put them in the space either. Instead, he made a rope with wild grass and tied the two roosters together. He also got out a wild rabbit and tied the three guys together. He then took out the flour bag that was in the space, tucked it under his arm, and staggered down the mountain with the prey in his hand.

He did this mainly to get the villagers used to the fact that these were the prey he hunted from the mountains.

Prepare for the delicious food and drinks in the future.

Liu Ping'an went down the mountain and wandered around for two hours. The sun had set partly, and he walked towards home carrying the prey.

When he reached the collective field, young and old saw the prey in his hands and were all envious.

"Oh my god, Ping An is so amazing. He caught so many prey just after entering the mountains."

"I've been to the mountains and forests before, but I didn't see anything."

"You can compare with others Ping An, who are favored by heaven and protected by God."

Liu Ping'an felt embarrassed when he heard their words. How could a junior college graduate be considered a favored child of heaven?

"Old Liu, your grandson is amazing. Looks like you guys are going to have to eat meat tonight."

An old man next to Liu Xingwang said something envious and sarcastic, which made Liu Xingwang laugh.

When Uncle Three Liu Jianping heard this, he almost couldn't help showing off: "What do you mean we're having meat tonight? We had chicken for lunch today."

But he knew what to say and what not to say. His mouth moved a little, and finally turned into a silly laugh.

"Ping An, how did you catch this?"

The village chief, Uncle Qin Sanye, who was sitting on the edge of the field smoking a pipe, saw Liu Ping'an and asked in a friendly manner.

"It's a trap I set up in the mountains. Look, uncle, there's no blood on these three chickens. I didn't shoot them."

Ping'an didn't despise him. He sat down next to the village chief, then picked two of the roosters and handed them to him, leaving the village chief stunned.

"Peace, you..."

"Don't get me wrong, Uncle San. I mean to send these two chickens to the collective canteen to be made into dishes. Even though there isn't much meat, it can still help everyone eat meat."

When Liu Ping'an said this, all the villagers in the fields opened their eyes wide, unable to believe what was happening.

"Oh my goodness, Lao Liu, your family has really good parents. They even took out this meat. I must have hidden it for myself to eat."

"As expected of a city worker, his ideological awareness is different."

"It's Xiao Ping'an. One should never forget the well-digger. If other people had such a good life, they would have been enjoying themselves. Why would they care about others?"

The other villagers were generous in praising Liu Ping'an and praised him as a flower.

Liu Xingwang originally felt a little distressed.

But when he heard them all praising his eldest grandson, he didn't feel uncomfortable. Instead, he felt very proud.

"This is my eldest grandson. He is not one of those ungrateful people... Bah, bah, bah, how can those ungrateful people be qualified to compare with my grandson? My grandson is a worker."

"Old Liu, you guys got so much of the meat, don't you feel bad about it?"

Liu Xingwang saw the old man next to him and explained with a smile: "Don't you still have a rabbit? At this age, just taste it."

"Ping An wants to take revenge on the villagers. As a grandfather, can I stop him?"

"Not bad, not bad. Lao Liu has a very high level of ideological awareness."

Seeing this lively scene, Master Qin San did not refuse. Instead, he said cheerfully, "Well, I accept your kindness on behalf of the villagers. I'll save a big chicken drumstick for you later."

"Why keep it? I still have a rabbit, don't I?"

Liu Ping'an shook the rabbit in his hand, stood up and patted the yellow dirt on his butt.

"The chicken is too skinny, so I'll give it to other people. I'll take the rabbit home and give it to my family."

"Of course, of course. We can't push our luck."

Uncle Qin San also stood up, then called a young man and asked him to deliver the chicken to the commune canteen.

Seeing this, Liu Pingan waved to his grandfather, uncle, third uncle and father in the field and shouted, "I'm going to go back first. When you see grandma, tell them to come back and get the rabbit. I've never killed a rabbit."

Liu Ping'an's words made the people in the field laugh, and they all waved to Liu Ping'an to express their gratitude.

Liu Ping'an responded with a smile, then disappeared to the edge of the field with the rabbit in his hand.

Walking to a place with fewer people, he took out the pheasant from the space and put it in a cloth bag.

This wild hen laid a lot of eggs in space and has completed its mission.

Its final destination is to enter the mouths of the Liu family.
