Carrying a broken basket, a hatchet, a roll of grass thatch, and a broken sack, Yun Chao headed straight to the north of the village.
"Yun Er, are you going to farm? Oh, I forgot, your family's fields have been sold by you."
"Yun Er, are you dressing up like this because you want to escape from poverty? The little wife at home doesn't want you anymore?"
"..."
Almost all the villagers I met along the way were making fun of Yun Chao. Their children were afraid of Yun Er, but they adults were not.
Although Yun Laoer hates people and dogs, he is so cowardly that he only dares to sneak around and never fights with others.
Yun Chao was too lazy to argue with a bunch of village men and women. His predecessor had done evil, and he, the successor, was not prepared to pay for it. He was tired of being pestered, so he said he wanted to go hunting in the mountains, which immediately caused a burst of joy. laugh.
"Haha, you're the only one who still hunts? If you can catch prey, I'll treat you to steamed buns, white flour steamed buns!"
"What do you mean, Yun Er, if you can catch prey, see, I'll swallow this shit fork in my hand!"
"Yun Er, I support you. You must bring back a prey. Let's see how it eats dung, quack, quack, quack..."
There is a large mountain to the north of Wolong Village, and the villagers call it Beishan. As for its name on the official map, the original owner, a third-generation farmer, doesn’t know.
Between the village and Beishan, there is a large ditch dozens of meters wide and more than ten meters deep. The villagers call it Wolong Valley.
From Wolong Valley to the foot of Beishan, there is a narrow flat land hundreds of meters wide and several miles long. It is almost all deserted and there is very little farmland.
Wolong Valley is not a dry ditch. The bottom of the ditch is a stream flowing from Beishan Mountain. When the water volume is large, Wolong Valley can be filled up and even flow into the village.
Even when the amount of water is small, it is still five or six meters wide, and the deepest part is above the head. It is not something that normal people can pass through at will.
Fortunately, there was a single-plank bridge at the narrowest part of the ditch, otherwise Yun Chao would have had to cross on the ice at the bottom of the ditch.
Before, Yun Chao fell into an ice hole while skating at the bottom of Wolong Valley. Now he still has some psychological shadow.
None of the kids he skated with back then can be seen now.
Just kidding, someone almost drowned, who would let their children come to skate, looking for death?
When crossing the bridge, Yun Chao actually broke into a cold sweat. It had just snowed, and the bridge was wet and slippery. He looked down at the ice at the bottom of the ditch and suddenly felt dizzy. If he lost his footing and fell, Yun Chao wouldn't think so. I still have the luck to travel through time again.
With almost no danger, Yun Chao finally set foot on the ground.
"Shh..."
With a long sigh of relief, Yun Chao found a big pine tree, found an open space nearby, removed the snow, and exposed the ground.
I picked up a strong branch, tied a hemp rope on it, set up a bamboo basket, and sprinkled the remaining broken rice at home on it.
He took out the straw thatch from the basket and spread it behind the big pine tree. He lay down, rolled up the straw thatch around his body, held the other end of the hemp rope in his hand, and began to wait quietly.
Of course, Yun Chao did not forget to cover the hemp rope on the ground with snow to prevent the secret from being exposed.
That's right, Yun Chao is preparing to catch birds.
Coming from a modern society with highly developed information, Yun Chao's greatest wealth is the messy knowledge stored in his brain.
Catching birds is nothing, if conditions permit, he can even catch wild boars!
As for why we don’t catch birds near the village, we have to travel so far in the cold weather. The reason is simple. The birds near the village are frightened by the villagers. They are so aggressive that they are difficult to catch.
The ecology of the Wu Dynasty was not damaged, and there were many birds and animals. Not long after, a sparrow flew over.
After tasting the sweetness of the food, the sparrow began to make friends.
After a while, several flew over.
Then, a few more fell down.
…
This was the first time Yun Chao used this method to catch birds and he had no actual combat experience.
However, since he has never eaten pork, seen pigs running away, and been bombarded by the information storm from his past life, Yun Chao does not know too much about the messy knowledge.
He was patient and resisted the urge to pull the rope now. Only when most of the birds came to the middle of the bamboo basket did Yun Chao give a strong tug!
Bang.
The bamboo basket was buckled down.
Several birds flew into the sky screaming.
Without any time to think, Yun Chao emerged from the grass thatch and rushed over staggeringly.
There was no food in the stomach, no strength in the body, and the legs were still numb. He rushed so hard, it was good if he didn't fall, and it would be weird if he didn't stagger.
Pressing the bamboo basket, Yun Chao's heart was pounding. He was more nervous than the first time he held hands with a girl in his previous life.
Very good!
Yun Chao was extremely excited when he felt the vibration of the bamboo basket under his hand.
Gently lift the bamboo basket up a crack, reach out and touch inside...
Haha, it really does!
One...
Two...
three……
…
…
Well, no more.
There's nothing wrong with putting sparrows in sacks.
After collecting the loot, Yun Chao continued his efforts and set up a trap again.
Unfortunately, the sparrows seemed to have been warned, and none came for a long time.
Due to lack of energy, Yun Chao felt his body getting colder and colder.
No, it can't go on like this, otherwise it will lead to excessive hypothermia.
If he froze to death, it would be a shame for the time traveler.
Forget it, just three, it's better than nothing.
Um……
Wait.
There seems to be something going on!
Just as Yun Chao was about to get up, his eyes were dazzled when a bird with a flowery neck landed in front of the bamboo basket.
Yun Chao couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the white spots on the black background on the bird's neck.
Wild pigeons, also called pearl-necked doves, although not very large, have more meat than sparrows and taste better.
I originally thought that this kind of bird lived in warm places, but I didn't expect that it would also appear in snowy days.
Wild pigeons are small social creatures. It didn't take long before a small group of about six or seven came flying in.
With the experience from last time, Yun Chao was able to remain calm and did not start to pull the rope until most of them reached the depths of the bamboo basket.
A few lucky ones screamed and flew away, while Yun Chao also rushed over.
As soon as he pressed his hand on the bamboo basket, Yun Chao knew that without the air force, there was another harvest!
One...
Two...
three……
…
Three more!
Okay, people can't be too greedy, just accept it when it's good.
The food used to attract birds has been exhausted, and Yun Chao's physical strength has also reached its lowest point. If we don't withdraw now, when will we wait?
Yun Chao packed his things and had just walked a few steps when he heard a bang behind him, which startled him.
Looking back, Yun Chao almost jumped up.
Someone gave me a pillow when I fell asleep. It turns out that there is such a thing as waiting for something to happen!
Right next to the big pine tree where he was hiding just now, there was a yellow-gray hare lying upright. It must have hit the tree just now. I don't know if it fainted or died.
OK, it seems that God is helping me, I can finally have a good meal today!
If you don’t take what God gives you, you will suffer the consequences. There is no reason to not want something that God has given to you for free.
Yun Chao took three steps at a time, picked up the hare, and stuffed it into a sack without any fuss.
However, when he raised his head again, he was surprised. His feet seemed to be filled with lead and he could not move no matter what!
