Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

They caught two more wild rabbits, and everyone's face lit up with joy.

Hou Jun volunteered, carrying a sack full of rabbits and pheasants on his back, looking as happy as a fool.

"Let's go, it's still early, let's head north."

Chang Kun had already detected the trail of a group of wild boars through his senses, but they were quite far away. It would take them at least two or three hours to walk there.

Besides, there's a little girl dragging us down, always chasing butterflies and catching grasshoppers, treating the hunting trip in the mountains like a picnic.

After walking for an hour, everyone was covered in sweat and felt a little listless.

Xiuer was also bored and clung to her older brother's shoulder, refusing to get down.

"Master, Monkey King, do you eat snake meat?"

To encourage everyone, Chang Kun chose a small grove of trees where he sensed several rat snakes.

As the saying goes: "If there are rat snakes for one mile, there will be no poisonous snakes for ten miles."

There are rat snakes in this grove, and I haven't sensed any other snakes around, so there's definitely no risk of being bitten by a venomous snake.

"snake?"

"Where is it? Where is it?"

Lu Jiawei's mouth was watering: "Snakes? Snake soup is the best dish made with these. Who doesn't know how to eat them? Leave the snake catching to me! I can catch two or three snakes every year."

Only Xiuer was a little disgusted. Before, when she ate snake soup in her hometown, the snake meat had small bones, which made it a pain to eat, and she almost choked on one.

Chang Kun was taken aback; he hadn't expected Xiao Lü to be an expert at catching snakes.

That's perfect, saves me the trouble of doing it myself.

"Alright then, Xiao Lü, I see there are quite a few rat snakes in the woods, go in and catch them."

"Really? Chang Kun, how did you figure that out?" Lu Jiawei looked left and right, but couldn't see anything special about the forest.

Hou Jun threw the sack on his back onto the ground and patted Lü Jiawei on the shoulder: "Stop thinking about it. What did we say when we went into the mountains? Listen to my junior brother's instructions. Do you think hunting in the mountains is that simple? He must have some special skills!"

"Let's go! Let's all go in and take a look!" Lei Guohong waved his hand and took the lead into the woods.

Since entering the mountains, Chang Kun has been the one who found the pheasants and rabbits, while the others have yet to achieve anything, which makes the veteran, who is their mentor, lose face.

Xiuer didn't want to watch people catch snakes. She rolled her eyes and pointed to a patch of grass not far away: "Big brother, let's go catch grasshoppers over there."

She had only caught one grasshopper earlier, and then she started to miss the deep-fried grasshoppers she used to eat back in her hometown.

"Sure!"

Since the woods aren't very big, having others catch a few rat snakes will give them a sense of participation in the hunting trip.

Chang Kun held the little girl and sensed that there were indeed many grasshoppers, katydids, and beetles hopping around in the grass up to his calves.

Sensing that there were no dangerous animals in the grass, Chang Kun turned off the system's sensors.

A brother and sister, one big and one small, were searching for grasshoppers in the grass; catching them was quite addictive.

Little Xiuer spotted a grasshopper, crept closer, and pounced, filling its mouth with bits of grass.

"Pah! Didn't catch them!"

She was a little angry, staring intently at the cricket that had jumped away, and made as if to pounce on it again.

Chang Kun chuckled and said, "They're not stupid, are they? Do you think they'd just wait to be thrown into a vat of boiling oil by you?"

Xiuer tilted her head and thought for a moment, then nodded: "That's true, it's afraid of being fried in oil, but what if I really want to eat it?"

"Come home with me. Mom says oil is very precious. I'm already being very generous by feeding the grasshoppers oil."

At this point, they wouldn't let anything that could get into their stomachs go to waste, especially high-quality protein like grasshoppers.

Unable to resist her cravings, the little girl rose up again, picked up a wooden stick from somewhere, and became the Sword God of Shili Slope.

Before long, the grass, which was up to their calves, was cut down, and the grasshoppers scattered and fled.

"Haha, let's see where you run and where you hide!"

Just as Xiuer was having fun, Chang Kun suddenly saw a bee.

A thought struck him: where there are bees, there is a beehive; where there is a beehive, there is honey.

This is pure wild honey, far superior to honey water made with syrup in later generations.

Moreover, there might be bee pupae in the honeycomb, which is an unparalleled delicacy for gourmets.

He activated his senses and discovered that the bee gathering place was not far away, about two miles from here, not much different from the location of the wild boar.

First, he squatted down to help Xiuer catch grasshoppers. Each time he caught one, Chang Kun would thread a foxtail grass through the back of the grasshopper's neck.

After a while, Xiuer had seven or eight strings of grasshoppers in her hand, her satisfied smile resembling that of an old farmer during harvest season.

Hou Jun emerged from the grove, a cigarette dangling from his lips. He glanced at Xiao Xiu'er and exclaimed in surprise, "Wow! Xiao Xiu'er's amazing! She caught so many big grasshoppers!"

Xiuer grinned from ear to ear: "Brother Monkey, I only caught a few, but Big Brother caught them all."

"Well... shall we roast some grasshoppers later?"

Xiuer's eyes widened as she hid the string of grasshoppers behind her back, shaking her head vigorously: "No, no! I wanted to take them back to be boiled in oil!"

This action made Hou Jun laugh out loud, and he pinched Xiu'er's nose: "This girl is just like my little daughter. Once good things are in their hands, they won't be able to take them out."

"Hey Monkey King, what brings you out here? Have you caught all the snakes?"

Hou Jun sighed: "Catch them all? You really think highly of us! Little Lü is all talk and no action. He went around in circles three times and only caught one snake, which wasn't even as long as my forearm."

Chang Kun: ...

It's not even as long as a baby's arm; it's practically a child among snakes.

I sensed seven or eight rat snakes in this grove just now. Little Lü even boasted that he could catch several rat snakes every year, but I never expected…

Nothing!

"Let's go in and take a look. There are bound to be a lot of rat snakes in this grove."

Hou Jun nodded: "Xiao Lü also said he wouldn't admit it was his problem, saying there definitely aren't any more rat snakes in this grove."

Hou Jun now blindly believes his junior brother's words. Since his junior brother said there are many rat snakes in the grove, then there must be some.

Leading Xiaoxiu into the woods, I activated my senses and discovered three rat snakes coiled together, and two other places where they were also in pairs.

It's not springtime, and it's not mating season yet!

Is it possible that the rat snake has a different temperament, and is doing this kind of thing as summer draws to a close?

Chang Kun shook his head and greeted Lei Guohong and the others.

Lu Jiawei was embarrassed and didn't dare to speak. He had just boasted that he was a snake-catching expert, but he didn't expect that the grove was small and he had only found one small snake after circling it three times.

Chang Kun didn't refuse him and walked to a place where he sensed the rat snake.

In front of me was an old locust tree, its trunk somewhat hollow, and a rat snake was hiding inside.

It's no wonder Xiao Lü couldn't find this place; the two rat snakes inside were hiding very deep. Unless you stretched your arm all the way down, you couldn't touch them at all.

But they didn't know what was in the tree hole, so they dared not stick their arms in easily, in case there were scorpions inside.

A sting from that thing can be quite painful!

"Xiao Lü, I think there's a rat snake hiding in the tree hole. Aren't you an expert snake catcher? Why don't you give it a try?"

Lu Jiawei glanced at the tree hole, then at Chang Kun, gritted his teeth, and decided to trust Chang Kun after all.

This holiday was secured by Chang Kun, and he also resolved the human trafficking case, so I have no right to raise any questions.
