Siheyuan: I just want to live
Chapter 9 Hunting and Water
Chen Feng climbed up another high ground. Behind the high ground was a cliff of more than 50 meters. Looking down, he found a flat open space like a mirror.
It was a water source, and I didn't know if it had been damaged by humans or other wild animals. Chen Feng walked around for more than half an hour before he got down to the bottom of the cliff.
After arriving at the bottom of the cliff, Chen Feng observed that this was a ravine. A circular stone pool with a diameter of about 100 meters was located at the entrance of the ravine.
The ditch was covered with lush vegetation and tall trees. Chen Feng climbed up a tree and carefully surveyed the surroundings to see if there were any signs of large carnivores.
In the distance, a group of wild boars were leisurely searching for food. There were three big pigs, two males and one female.
Chen Feng tied himself to a tree to prevent the wild boar from getting angry and hitting the tree, shaking him off.
He raised his gun and aimed at the largest wild boar in the group. He gently pulled the trigger and heard two shots. The huge boar fell to the ground.
When the other two wild boars noticed the big tree where Chen Feng was hiding, they rushed towards him aggressively.
Chen Feng did not confirm whether the previous shot hit the target, but quickly turned the muzzle of the gun towards one of the other two wild boars and pulled the trigger continuously. "Bang", "bang", "bang"... With a series of gunshots, all the remaining bullets in the gun were fired instantly.
Then, he quickly switched to a Thompson submachine gun and fired at the two wild boars. After he had used up all his bullets, only one wild boar rushed under the tree.
With a loud bang, the wild boar slammed into the tree trunk like a madman. The huge impact force caused the whole tree to shake violently.
If Chen Feng had not tied himself tightly to the tree with a rope beforehand, he would have been shaken and fallen down by now.
While the wild boar below was dizzy from being hit, Chen Feng quickly took out his M1911 pistol and fired several shots at the wild boar's head without hesitation until all the bullets in the magazine were used up.
The wild boar, which had suffered such a fierce attack, was now motionless and looked to be dead.
However, Chen Feng did not rush to get down from the tree. Instead, he first replaced the magazines of his Thompson and M1911, and reloaded the Type 56 rifle with bullets.
After completing these preparations, he carefully untied the ropes on his body, slowly climbed down the tree, and prepared to check the wild boar's condition at close range.
The one under the tree was already dead. After using the space to collect it, he continued to walk towards the two knocked down wild boars with Thompson on his arm.
The second one was beaten into a sieve by Thomson and died completely. He collected it and continued to move forward.
Before I reached the third wild boar, I heard the wild boar howling in pain.
Chen Feng came to a distance of three or two meters in front of the wild boar, and fired a short burst of shots with the Thompson. Three bullets penetrated the wild boar's head, and Chen Feng completed the follow-up shooting.
After collecting the wild boar, I looked around and found that the little wild boars had already run away.
He did not chase them. The three big wild boars in the space weighed more than 1,300 kilograms. He did not need to waste time looking for them. There was enough to eat for a long time.
Chen Feng began to walk back carefully. When he was not far from the first wild boar, he suddenly saw a huge, fat black bear sniffing around the place where the wild boar died.
Chen Feng was shocked: "There is a black bear here!" He quickly raised the Thompson in his hand and aimed at the black bear.
At this moment, the black bear seemed to have noticed the movement behind it, and it turned around and looked at Chen Feng. Then, it pounced on Chen Feng without hesitation.
Faced with this sudden attack, Chen Feng did not panic. He held the Thompson tightly, calmly aimed at a patch of white hair on the black bear's chest, and quickly pulled the trigger, firing a long burst of shots.
As the gunshots rang out, the black bear roared in pain and then fell heavily to the ground. It struggled to crawl forward a few meters, but eventually fell powerlessly about ten meters away from Chen Feng.
Chen Feng stepped forward, put the black bear into the space, replaced the new magazine, and followed the bear's footprints to find a cave. He did not rush in, but took out a grenade and threw it in.
With a loud bang, the grenade exploded in the cave. After a while, he took out the flashlight and entered the cave. It was stinky inside and there were no other bears. It seemed that this was a solitary bear. In the cartoons, there were only two bears.
I guess there shouldn't be any other large carnivorous wild animals around here. This area should be the bear's territory.
I turned around and left, and returned to the pool, where I found many basalts of different sizes scattered around. Some were more than a person tall, some were as small as a fist, and they came in all kinds of shapes.
These stones and stone pools should have been formed by an earthquake a long time ago. After finding two stones of suitable size and weight and putting them into the space, Chen Feng prepared to make a pair of millstones and place them in the space.
Chen Feng came to the side of the pond, his eyes fell on the ice, and he carefully observed the distance between it and the pond mouth. He found that the ice surface was actually one meter lower than the pond mouth! This made him feel a little relieved, at least the water source did not seem to be polluted by animals.
Then, Chen Feng carefully stepped onto the ice, his steps light and cautious. He stepped lightly a few times and felt that the ice was unusually solid, so he walked forward with confidence. He used his hands to dig away the snow, trying to estimate the thickness of the ice more accurately. After a visual inspection, he judged that the ice was about half a meter thick.
Chen Feng continued to walk forward until he was two or three meters away from the shore. He took out a lithium battery electric saw from the space and prepared to start drilling holes in the ice. This task was not easy and he needed a lot of effort and patience to complete it.
Chen Feng held the electric saw tightly, inserted it into the ice, and slowly turned on the power. The electric saw made a low humming sound, and the saw teeth began to cut the ice. Because the ice was very hard, Chen Feng had to use great efforts to saw the ice bit by bit. After a long time of hard work, he finally opened a conical funnel-shaped hole on the ice with a diameter of more than one meter above and about half a meter below. Sweat slid down his forehead, but his eyes were full of a sense of accomplishment.
He went up and laboriously cut down several trees, carefully selected suitable branches, matched them with fire hoses, and then used iron wire to make a 40-meter-long soft ladder.
My father bought these fire hoses to be used with the tractor pumping components to deal with the annual drought. Whenever there is a drought, the tractor is used to draw water from the deep wells dug in the fields to irrigate the fields. A total of seven hoses were purchased, which are 140 meters long in total!
After collecting the remaining tree trunks and unsuitable branches into the space, he began to set up the ladder. He first took out one section and wrapped it around a thick tree trunk about ten meters away, and then connected the two ends to the ladder at the edge of the pond.
When all preparations were completed, Chen Feng threw a grenade into the ice cave without hesitation. Before the grenade exploded, he quickly dodged into the space to hide. After waiting for a full minute, he reappeared from the space.
At this time, a large area had been blown out of the ice surface, and Chen Feng immediately put the ladder into the water. He held the ladder tightly with his right hand, reached into the water with his left hand, and began to collect the water with the help of the power of space.
The water rushed toward him like a surging torrent until it was completely out of sight. Then he slowly moved down the ladder and repeated the previous action.
The fish in the pond also gathered around Chen Feng with the turbulent and uncontrollable flow. There were big and small ones, some were herrings weighing more than ten or twenty kilograms, and some were two-finger-long black carps. There were basically all four major carps. He also collected them into the space. The big ones were placed in the space room to keep them fresh, and the small ones were placed in the pond to continue raising them.
Chen Feng climbed down the ladder while collecting water, but he still couldn't see the mud at the bottom of the stone pool until he reached the end of the ladder.
"This pool is so deep!" Chen Feng couldn't help but sigh.
He stood by the pool, looking down at the deep water, and a feeling of awe welled up in his heart. The water in the pool was clear and transparent, but it was bottomless, as if it hid countless secrets.
When Chen Feng saw that the ladder had reached the bottom, he stopped collecting water and began to climb up carefully. When he finally climbed to the shore, he was already exhausted and out of breath.
He took a short break, then began to pull up the ladder and put it into the space. After completing all this, Chen Feng entered the space and couldn't wait to check the fish he had just caught.
After some estimation, he found that he had harvested nearly 2,000 kilograms of fish!
Chen Feng divided the fish into several piles according to their weight. Among them, the pile of one or two kilograms weighed more than 800 kilograms, the pile of two to five kilograms weighed 500 kilograms, the pile of five to eight kilograms weighed more than 300 kilograms, and the pile of eight to ten kilograms weighed less than 200 kilograms.
In addition, there was a large black carp weighing more than 30 jin placed alone, three large fish weighing 20 jin, 15 fish weighing more than 10 jin, and 26 silver carp and grass carp weighing about 10 jin. Finally, there were two carps weighing about 8 jin.
In this era of scarcity, these fish are rare and good things, and are definitely the best gifts. Chen Feng was secretly happy in his heart, this time the harvest was really rich!
In the wide fish pond, hundreds of fish swam happily. Each of these small fish weighed less than a pound, but they were full of energy, bringing vitality to the entire fish pond. The owner carefully selected the carnivorous fry and raised them separately from the other fish. The remaining herbivorous fish were left in the fish pond to continue enjoying the tranquil waters.
Time flies, and it's the next year. Thanks to the use of time acceleration technology that is four times the size of space, the fish in the fish pond grow rapidly. The small fish that originally weighed only a few kilograms can grow to about ten kilograms, becoming fat and big fish.
