Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

Chapter 351: Greediness has no good end

It is impossible to keep all four wolves, but Li Long hopes that as many as possible can stay.

So he has to choose a target first.

The smallest of the four wolves ran the fastest. He was not alert at all. He ran directly to the piece of wild boar meat closest to him and started to chew it hard.

During this half day, the meat had frozen hard, and a thick layer of ice had formed on it. Even though the wolf's teeth were hard and sharp, it couldn't bite the meat open and put it into its mouth for a while, so the little wolf was so anxious that he cried while biting.

The other three wolves were not as anxious as it was. They looked around while running. When the little wolf started eating, they were still twenty or thirty meters away from the wild boar meat.

At this time, a wolf stopped and sniffed around, as if it smelled a scent that made it alert. Its ears stood up high and it growled.

The other two wolves also slowed down, but when they saw the little wolf gnawing on something desperately, they immediately stopped caring and quickened their pace to run towards their target.

"It's you!" Li Long immediately aimed his gun at the stopped wolf - Li Long was most confident when it came to shooting at fixed targets.

Take the lead!

Let’s get a good leather first!
At a distance of less than a hundred meters, with a slight blur, Li Long glanced behind the wolf's ear and pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

"boom!"

After the first shot, Li Long immediately held the gun and fired again. The wolf's body tilted and fell in the snow.

The other two wolves, whose mouths had just landed on the meat, were immediately frightened and fled madly to both sides. Li Long didn't even look at them, but adjusted the muzzle of his gun to aim at the other little wolf - that greedy guy, he probably wouldn't run away so quickly!
Sure enough, the little wolf had successfully picked up the meat from the ground, and only the wire was still connected to the stone frozen to the ground. Although the little wolf heard the gunshot, it was reluctant to part with the piece of meat in its mouth and planned to take it away, but the wire was still connected, and it cried anxiously - it didn't even notice that one of its companions had fallen to the ground.

"boom!"

Li Long fired a shot and sent it to meet its companions.

Seeing that Li Long put away his gun after firing three shots, Li Junfeng couldn't wait to ask:
"Uncle Xiaolong, how are you?"

"Both. Let's go out and take a look!" Li Long said with a smile, holding his gun. "Not bad. The bait you made is very effective."

"Hehehe!" After being praised, both Li Junfeng and Li Junshan laughed.

When they pushed open the door and went out, the sun had already set on the top of the mountain in the west, and the air was getting colder. However, the three of them were very excited at this moment, and they walked together in the direction where the wolf fell.

The little wolf still had the meat in its mouth and died with its eyes open.

In order to ensure a fatal blow, Li Long hit Xiaolong in the chest, causing damage to the wolf skin, but overall it was still in good condition.

"This wolf isn't very big, it's about the size of a dog." It was the first time Li Junshan had seen a wolf up close, and he was a little curious. He took a look and said, "It looks pretty skinny."

"It snowed heavily, and maybe they haven't caught anything to eat recently, so they are so greedy, otherwise they wouldn't have been killed by me." Li Long kicked the little wolf and said, "I'll skin it later. Come on, there's still one left."

The other wolf was about 20 to 30 meters away. It didn't bleed much, but the snow nearby was kicked away, and it seemed to struggle for a while after falling down.

"This wolf is bigger," Li Junfeng commented, "and fatter, it must be around 70 or 80 kilograms!"

Li Junfeng came from his hometown. Although he used kilograms to sell fish a few days ago, he was still used to using catties when speaking.

"Almost." Li Long said, "Drag it back. It's dead, but we need to skin and gut it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be the same as the wild boar."

After hearing this, Li Junfeng and Li Junshan immediately each grabbed a wolf and dragged it towards the wooden house.

Li Long went to put down his gun, took a skinning and meat cutting knife, and started skinning the big wolf.

The wolf's body was not yet hard, so Li Junfeng and Li Junshan each pulled one of its legs to help Li Long. They were quite envious of Li Long's quick movements.

Li Long spent ten minutes peeling off the wolf skin, and then he started to gut it. Now that he had two people helping him, he no longer worried about the food freezing, and since it was winter, the meat was easier to preserve, so he asked the two people to wash the stomach and intestines, while he started to skin the other wolf cub.

By the time the two wolves were almost dealt with, it was already dark.

Seeing that there was no moon in the sky, Li Long said to Li Junshan and Li Junfeng:
"Let's heat up the remaining buns tonight, fry some offal and eat them, and then rest. Tomorrow morning you can bring back the wolf meat."

"Then Uncle Xiaolong, aren't you going to stay here?" Li Junshan asked.

"I'll just leave a leg here." Li Long said with a smile, "As long as I have the gun, I won't lack meat."

"Uncle Xiaolong, I really envy you!" Li Junfeng said sincerely, "If you want to eat fish, you can get so much fish. If you want to eat meat, you can take a gun to the mountain and eat meat, and you can also make money..."

"Haha, you are rich now, aren't you?" Li Long said with a smile, "When you return to your hometown, you will be the envy of others."

"That's right. I'll buy a bicycle when I get back!" Li Junfeng had already thought about it. "I'll also buy new clothes for everyone in the family, and some fine grains for the kids. I see Juanjuan and Qiangqiang are growing tall. My aunt said they need to eat fine grains and meat..."

It is human nature for a father to subconsciously want to leave the best things to his children.

"Uncle Xiaolong, can we just leave the wild boar meat there?" Li Junshan asked while eating.

“Never mind.” Li Long waved his hand. “It won’t stink so much if it’s frozen. I’ll be down the mountain next spring. When it melts, it will either rot in the ground or be eaten by other things. Don’t worry about it.”

After eating and cleaning up, Li Long put a piece of coal in the stove and pressed it with a shovel of coal. He went out and moved No. 76 to the cabin. He now thought that when the spring comes tomorrow, the cabin will have to be expanded. He must build a shed for No. 76, otherwise it will be difficult to store it in the winter.

Of course, in order to prevent No. 76 from destroying other things in the house, he tightened No. 76's reins so that its range of movement was much smaller.

The three of them slept together on the wooden kang in the big room. "Uncle Xiaolong, do you think there will be something coming over in the middle of the night?" Li Junfeng suddenly asked not long after they fell asleep.

"No way?" Li Long was almost asleep and said in a confused tone, "How can there be so many things in this mountain?"

Having said that, he turned over and continued to sleep.

Li Junfeng was a little bit unconvinced. He always felt that the wild boar meat should be a great temptation to other carnivores in the forest.

He wanted to see it.

I couldn't sleep because I had something on my mind. Li Junfeng patted Li Junshan and asked him to sleep in the middle while he slept on the outside. He would get up from time to time to check on him.

His movements were not loud and did not wake up Li Long and Li Junshan.

Li Long was chatting with Gu Xiaoxia hand in hand in his dream when he heard Li Junfeng's urgent voice:
"Uncle Xiaolong, Uncle Xiaolong!"

Li Long got up at once, looked at Li Junfeng who was calling him anxiously at the head of the bed, and asked:
"What's wrong, Junfeng?"

"There's something over there...with the meat!" Li Junfeng pointed to the window.

Li Long looked at the window through which a faint light came and asked, "What do you see?"

"I don't know. It's too dark to tell what they are." Li Junfeng shook his head. "I think there are quite a few of them, but they are not very big!"

Li Long climbed up, put on his coat, buttoned his collar, and walked to the window with his gun in hand to look out.

The room was still dark. Although there was no moon outside yet, the sky was brighter. With the snow as a backdrop, Li Long could barely see the places where the frozen meat was originally placed. At this moment, there were indeed a few small things moving around.

He aimed his gun, then shook his head and said:
"I can't hit it. It's too dark."

Having said that, he was about to go back to sleep.

But Li Junfeng suddenly spoke:

"Uncle Xiaolong, do you want me to try?"

"You can shoot a gun?" Li Long asked with some surprise.

"How can I not know how to fight? I am also a militiaman!"

"Okay." Li Long stuck the muzzle of the gun out of the window, then handed the butt to Li Junfeng, who watched from the side.

Li Junfeng was a little excited and aimed his gun towards that direction.

To be honest, Li Long didn't believe that he could beat those guys - they were most likely foxes, but he couldn't see clearly.

This thing is definitely not easy to fight, after all, it’s too dark.

Li Junfeng aimed for two minutes before firing, and he fired two shots at once.

Li Junshan was startled. Li Junfeng handed the gun to Li Long and said uncertainly:
"I don't know if I hit him..."

"Let's go and take a look." Li Long had already buttoned up his clothes and said, "I have a flashlight, let's go out and take a look."

Although it was obvious that those things would not pose any threat to the three adults, Li Long still went out with a gun.

Li Junfeng and Li Junshan were whispering about what they had just seen.

Li Long was holding a flashlight, Li Junfeng was holding a flashlight, and Li Junshan was holding a stick.

When the three people walked into the snow, they found that there was nothing left there except the ripped wild boar meat.

"It looks like it didn't hit you." Li Long waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go back to sleep."

Li Junfeng still didn't give up. He searched in the snow for a long time, but ultimately found nothing. Dejected, he followed Li Long back to the cabin.

The next day, Li Junshan got up the earliest. He turned on the stove and prepared to boil water.

Li Long also got up. He put on his clothes and went out. The air outside was very cold, but it made his mind clear instantly. The three of them stayed together that night. The air in the room was very smelly, so the door was kept open for ventilation.

Li Long ran to the spring and brought back a bucket of water, then washed his face with cold water in the house. He went back to the small room, cut off a leg of the wolf meat he had processed yesterday and hung it up, and moved the rest of the meat to the carriage outside - No. 76 was also taken out.

No. 76, who had been stuck in the house all night, cried out in dissatisfaction a few times in protest. Li Long ignored its protests and gave it some grass to eat.

After a quick breakfast, Li Junfeng and Li Junshan harnessed the carriage and went down the mountain.

Li Long told them that after they sold all the fish, they could bring the horse-drawn carriage up again, and then they could decide whether to go down or stay in the mountains.

If you catch something at that time, you can pull it down the mountain.

After Li Junfeng and Li Junshan left, Li Long began to clean the small room. After cleaning it, he added coal to the stove in the big room and kneaded the dough, preparing to let it rise and steam some buns.

If you keep this thing in the house, you can always use it as a food reserve.

He wanted to do as much preparation as possible before Halim and the others came. (End of this chapter)
