Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

Returning to the mountain again, Li Long first put the things back to Halimu's winter home, where there was still no one. He didn't care and returned to his own cabin after unloading.

After putting away his bicycle, Li Long went to look at the dried meat hanging on the poles. The hot sun at noon had dried the meat halfway, and some flies were still flying around. He dissolved some salt water and sprinkled it on the meat. With salt, the flies couldn't crawl and lay maggots.

After finishing these things, he went to the hot springs again with his gun. Maybe he could find another bargain?
Even if you can't find a leak, it's good to go and take a bath in the hot spring. After all, you come back from a day of sweating, and this hot spring is natural, so it's good to take a bath.

I remember when I went to a hot spring in my last life, I heard that only a small part of the water in the pool was hot spring water, and most of it was boiled in a boiler. The locals also said that decades ago, you could soak in the hot spring pool freely, but now you can only watch. The places with hot springs are all reserved by people, and locals have to pay a high price if they want to soak in them, so they can't afford it.

When they got to the hot spring, they didn't see any animals. This time Li Long didn't lie in ambush. He just took off his shoes and clothes and put them aside. He put the gun on top of his clothes within reach, and then got into the pool to soak.

There were some gravel under the pool. Li Long picked up the gravel while soaking in the pool and threw it outside, but unfortunately there was no jade.

There were some stones with golden things on them, and Li Long recognized them as sulfur.

Seeing this, Li Long suddenly remembered something.

He remembered very clearly that Mahe was known as the gold plate with jade base. Since jade was already available, what about gold?

It is said that there were gold mines on the riverside here before the Qing Dynasty, and small golden dots can be seen on the beach beside the old road of its tributary, Mohequ.

But from the previous life until Li Long passed away, there was no news of any gold mines nearby. Was it that they were all mined out in that era?

Thinking about these things, Li Long soaked in the water for half an hour. He felt the skin on his hands and feet turned white and wrinkled due to dehydration. He got up and wiped them roughly with his clothes. When he was about to put on his clothes, he suddenly heard some movement in the pool in front of him!

When Li Long looked up, a brown bear stood up and was looking at him!
Li Long was stunned for a moment, then bent down, picked up the gun and started shooting!
He didn't even care that he was naked!
The bear roared and was about to pounce over here when Li Long fired a shot!

The two were less than forty meters apart, but Li Long's shot was not very accurate and hit the bear's thigh.

The bear screamed, turned around and ran away!

Li Long was not used to it because he was not wearing any clothes. The stress reaction after seeing the bear also caused the gun to miss the vital part.

At this time, the bear tried to run away, so Li Long fired another shot, but missed. The bear had already run into the woods.

Li Long immediately put on his clothes and chased after him with his gun in hand.

Li Long stopped at the edge of the forest. The pine forest here was dense, with many bushes and some tall grass, and the field of vision was only a dozen meters.

He didn't dare to go in. If the brown bear was hiding somewhere and waited for him to go in and paw him, he would be in big trouble.

Li Long was still a little unwilling - that was a bear!

This is the first time I’ve seen a bear in Tianshan Mountains in my life!
Although this bear is brown, to be honest it is really not very big. When standing upright it is even shorter than me.

The name does not match the reality.

In his previous life, Li Long saw in a short video a brown bear that ran from the Tianshan Mountains to the side of the road in search of food. The bear was more than two meters tall, fat and strong, and it looked scary.

This one looks like a half-grown cub, or a smaller version.

After waiting for a while and seeing no movement, Li Long had to retreat.

He didn't even dare to turn around and walk away, for he was worried that as soon as he turned around, the guy would suddenly jump out of the woods and chase after him.

Li Long turned around only after he retreated to the pond.

Frightened, he didn't plan to stay any longer. After the gunshot, other animals nearby couldn't come even if they wanted to, so he went back.

When Li Long returned to the cabin, the sun had not yet completely set, and he saw Harimu waiting outside the cabin.

"Why are you here? Do you need anything?" Li Long asked.

"No need, I'll give you something."

"Here." Halimu said, "We have enough stuff. This was harvested by Yushanjiang. He was over there harvesting grass and couldn't come over, so he asked me to give it to you. He said it's for your wife, so you must keep it well."

Li Long saw what Halimu took out.

That's a snow leopard skin!

"This... is too expensive..." Li Long said, "You should use it to buy some necessary things. I haven't gotten married yet. When I get married, you can just give me a sheep. By the way, she likes today's snow lotus very much!"

"Haha, I told Yushanjiang that you must have a girl you like." Halimu smiled and stuffed the snow leopard skin into Li Long's hand, "How can a sheep be so good? This is it!"

After saying that, Halimu climbed onto the horse, waved the whip, and the horse galloped away.

Li Long held the snow leopard skin and shook his head helplessly. This skin was bigger than the last one, very complete, and not hard. Li Long guessed that it must have been tanned.

He put the skin into the small room, washed it at the spring, got some food from Hulimatang, and then rested.

We have to go to the hot spring early tomorrow morning, so I have to go to bed early.

But I couldn't fall asleep for a while because Halimu and the others were so nice to me.

I will repay this kindness slowly in the future.

The next morning, Li Long went to the hot spring with his gun. Yesterday, he encountered a wounded brown bear. This creature has thick skin and flesh, and the wound is not in the vital part, so it should not die.

But I guess he won't come back. After all, he's not that big of a giant, and he doesn't have a strong desire to fight back.

Li Long just hoped that the gunshots last night didn't scare any animals away until now, which would be troublesome.

When he was almost at the pond, Li Long turned up the hillside and entered the woods.

What surprised Li Long was that he heard the sound of water splashing when he was not far from the pool.

Li Long immediately opened the safety of the five or six half gun, the bullet was already loaded, at this time he tried hard to keep his body balance and slowly moved towards the pool.

When approaching the ambush site the day before, Li Long saw three roe deer at the bottom of the valley, two of them were soaking in the hot springs in the pool, and one was kicking water in the stream above.

There are two roe deer in the pond, one male and one female. The one on top is slightly smaller. I don’t know if it is this year’s cub or another female roe deer.

Li Long hesitated for a moment and decided to set his target on the two roe deer in the pond.

Once in the water, it takes some effort to get out, which is just right for me to kill the second one after sniping the first one.

He walked slowly down to a place with a slightly wider view, half squatted down, raised his gun and aimed at the bull roe deer.

Just as he took aim but hadn't fired yet, the little roe deer by the pond seemed to smell the scent, cried out, and ran to the other side!

Li Long opened fire immediately, and with a "bang" the bullet hit the male roe deer in the neck. Without stopping, he fired another shot, hitting the male roe deer's leg. Then he adjusted the muzzle of the gun slightly. The female roe deer in the pond had already jumped out of the pond with half of its body, and was struggling to get out. Li Long immediately aimed at its head and fired two shots.

The female roe deer fowl fell directly into the pond.

What surprised Li Long was that the male roe deer was not dead. It jumped out of the pond and ran to the other side!
Damn, the vitality is so strong!
Li Long chased after him with a gun!

He ran out of the woods and down the valley, not caring about getting his shoes wet, and waded across the stream. The bull roe deer had already run into the woods.

Li Long chased into the woods. He was worried that he would lose it. Fortunately, the male roe deer was injured and was not moving very fast. Li Long saw it after passing a few pine trees. Just as he raised his gun, the guy passed over a tree.

Li Long had no choice but to continue chasing it. After running more than 20 meters, the male roe deer could no longer climb up. Seeing Li Long approaching, it made a tiny sound from its mouth. It was unclear whether it was threatening or begging for mercy, but Li Long could not understand, so he pointed his gun at the roe deer.

The guy probably knew what Li Long was doing, and he struggled hard to get up, but Li Long shot him in the head and he died.

Li Long himself was also out of breath. Although the distance he ran up and down was not long, it put a lot of pressure on his heart.

A few minutes later, Li Long carried the roe deer down to the pond. The blood of the female roe deer had already dyed the pond red.

Li Long went to the woods to get a bag, put the two roe deer in it, hung the gun on his chest, and then walked back carrying the bag.

They walked all the way back to the cabin. At this time, the sun had just appeared halfway. Li Long put the female roe deer into the cabin, then put the male on the bicycle and rode to find Harimu.

They came without any preparation, and it was impossible for them to eat naan every day. It was also impossible for them to bring a cow, and at most they could bring some milk lumps, so Li Long meant that the roe deer had a lot of meat, so he left it for them to eat.

If someone is kind and righteous, you can't be stingy, right?
Li Long's guess was correct. At this time, Halimu was making breakfast with another young man. He was a little surprised to see Li Long coming over on a bicycle.

"I just shot two roe deer in the mountains. You can take one and I can take the other." Li Long unloaded the male roe deer and threw it in front of the winter den. "You guys can deal with it. I have to go back and get mine."

After saying this, he ran back without waiting for Halimu to reply.

I have nothing else to do today but process the meat.

When Li Long returned to the wooden house, flies had already started to surround the female roe deer.

Li Long knew that if he had come a little later, the roe deer would probably be infested with maggots!
Deal with it quickly!
He carried the female roe deer to the spring, cleaned it before it became hard, and then skinned and gutted it.

Li Long was still glad that this thing was much easier to deal with than a wild boar.

More importantly, the meat is delicious! (End of this chapter)
