Forest Farm 1985: Raise a bear cub to climb the mountain

Chapter 11: Clumsy Little Boy

Somehow, even though it was a bit cold last night, I had an exceptionally good rest.

Dai Song was full of energy and trotted towards the 78th Forestry Station outside the village.

The forestry division here is actually a kind of land division unit of the forest farm.
The forest farm will initially divide the forest land into equal areas based on the area, tree growth conditions and other reasons.

Each area is a forest class.

For people living around the forest farm, it serves as a coordinate system.

The first time I met Xiao Erhan was in Class 78 Lin.

Later, in order to prevent Xiao Erhan from being beaten by others and to make it easier to take care of him,

Dai Song settled it in the valley of Gouzi Mountain at the border of Forest Range 78.

When they arrived at the entrance of Erhan’s cave, Dai Song sat on the edge of the cave.

puff--

The sound lingering in the cave, and soon Dai Song felt Erhan's little head constantly nodding against his butt.

The more you don't let it out, the more anxious it becomes.

It kept calling out in the cave and pulling at Dai Song's cotton pants with its claws. If the entrance to the cave had not been formed by several large rocks put together, it would have already dug its way through the cave and crawled out.

Thinking that the smell had dissipated, Dai Song raised his butt with a smile.

I saw a gray and furry ball rolling out of the hole, with its tongue sticking out. It lay on the pile of fallen leaves and tried to stutter.

"Erhan, what's wrong? Why are you still sleeping so late?"

Dai Song patted Erhan's gray head and helped him pick off the grass roots and dead leaves stuck on it.

Erhan just glanced at Dai Song weakly, stood up and went back to the cave, and in a few seconds he "reversed" out of the cave, dragging most of the yellow-haired boy.

Erhan Banban was sitting next to Huangmaozi, with his bulging belly sticking out, and he glanced at Dai Song;
I've eaten enough today, why do I get up so early?

Dai Song jumped up and slapped Erhan on the head, then picked up the half-length yellow-haired animal and hung it on a tree branch with great effort.

After what Xiao Erhan had eaten yesterday, Huang Maozi had become much lighter, with only his chest and buttocks connected to his two legs remaining.

Seeing the fool standing up in a hurry, jumping and scrabbling under the tree,
Seeing that the wound on its hind leg had formed a layer of black scab, Dai Song took out his hand from his pocket to get medicine and scolded Erhan:
"Erhan, you are a human bear after all, why are you so cowardly to eat dead things?
Come on, follow me up the mountain!

Starting today, let’s begin intensive training!
I’m telling you in advance: don’t even think about hibernation. How can you sleep at such a young age?
But don't worry, as compensation, you won't be short of food this winter.

So, little bear cub, cheer up from now on! This winter, I want you to eat a lot and grow fast! "

Erhan was frightened by Dai Song's aura. He sat down beside the tree, scratching his collar with his hind legs, his little eyes filled with clear confusion.

What does it mean to not allow hibernation?
Dai Song thought that Erhan just didn't understand the foresight of his plan, so he put on the backpack, grabbed Erhan by the collar and dragged him to the ridge of Gouziling.

It is late autumn now, and for some reason it hasn't snowed yet.

As usual, the snow in the mountains is knee-deep by this time.

Without snow, finding tracks is difficult.

Without a hunting dog, Dai Song could only rely on Xiao Erhan.

Fortunately, after three months of training, although Xiao Erhan was not good at fighting, he was still good at smelling and tracking tracks. Once the man and the bear entered the forest, they never returned empty-handed.

However, Erhan only chased prey such as sand chickens and greyhounds, and he never bothered prey that was bigger than his head.

It was Dai Song himself who followed the yellow-haired guy yesterday, chasing him all the way down the mountain and "bringing" him to Erhan.

Following behind Erhan, Dai Song stretched the leather bow (slingshot) around his waist.

The temperature in the mountains is close to zero.

In such a cold environment, the expansion and contraction of the rubber band will be affected. Dai Song pulled the rubber band into place in advance to avoid it breaking at the critical moment if Erhan chased it.

At this moment, Erhan, who was walking in front, suddenly let out a "hum", turned his head to look at Dai Song, and ran forward.

Dai Song hurriedly took out a handful of dried mud balls from his pocket and followed closely behind Erhan.

The surrounding forests gradually became denser, and there were fewer and fewer convenient places to step.

Every step they took would make a noise on the dead leaves on the ground, which greatly increased the difficulty of Erhan and Daisong's hunting.

Just when Dai Song began to pant, Erhan in front of him suddenly slowed down.

The still young bear paw took every step very slowly and cautiously, and the whole bear also changed its usual silly temperament.

Following its line of sight, Dai Song discovered that not far ahead, a few yellowish little animals quickly darted into a hole in the ground.

It's a yellow skin!

Dai Song was overjoyed, because the yellow-skinned man was actually a weasel.

In the Northeast, this thing is always accompanied by various spiritual legends.

But that was in the village, on the mountain, and no one cared about those things.

After all, when it comes to the profit of fifteen or twenty dollars for a piece of leather, all kinds of monsters are just a shot away.

What if one shot doesn't work?
Fire another shot!

There are a lot of yellow foxes on the mountain. Even in the 1990s and the millennium, the ecology of the Zhazi Forest Farm was no longer as good as before.
Yellow foxes are still as common as before.

Seeing the yellow-skinned family crawling into the hole, Xiao Erhan followed them quickly, stuck his big mouth tube into the small hole, and started sucking.

Dai Song came over and patted its head:

"What are you doing? Can you suck them out?"

Erhan raised his head, sneezed, looked at Dai Song with his little eyes, and scratched above the hole with his claws.

I found it! Let’s dig!

"You're so stupid." Dai Song couldn't help laughing and rubbed the hair on the back of Erhan's head.

"It's not easy to dig a yellow fox hole. They are very clever. Sometimes, to save trouble, they will occupy a rabbit hole, make some minor changes and then live there."

Seeing Erhan's eyes looking left and forward, Dai Song knew that the idiot didn't understand, so he put the slingshot on his waist and signaled Erhan to wait there:

"I'm going to move some rocks over there, so don't run around here."

"Huh~hmm~"

Erhan sat down at the entrance of the cave with his front paws tucked in front of his chest, nodding his head continuously. I understand this!
When Dai Song was walking back with the stone in his arms, he saw Erhan walking around in circles, at a loss, from afar.

When Erhan saw Dai Song coming, he ran towards him crying.

When he was close to Dai Song, he braked suddenly again, turned back, looked back every three steps, and urged Dai Song to hurry up with his eyes.

Dai Song was also afraid that the dozens of dollars he had made would fly away, so he held the stone and ran behind Erhan, panting like a dog.

After finally reaching the cave, Dai Song's face turned black.

He loosened his arms and the stones fell to the ground with a crash. Erhan was so frightened that he didn't dare to look at Dai Song and could only keep stealing glances at Dai Song's expression.

I saw that the hole, which was originally in good condition, had now collapsed. It was round and neatly sunken, exactly the shape of the waiter's butt.

Erhan arched your hand
