"Here you go, just eat it. Why are you so polite to Big Brother?" Li Laifu put the eggs in their hands without any explanation.
The two little kids were careful and chewed the eggs slowly. "Brother, you have to go into the mountains." They saw Li Laifu holding a woodcutter.
"Where can I find meat for you if I don't go into the mountains? You just stay at home."
"Okay, brother, we will wait for you at grandpa's house. You should come back early!" Xiaolong said.
Li Laifu went to the kitchen and took out four pancakes and gave them to Xiaolong. Xiaohu had one for each of them, and he took two for himself.
"Grandson, you can't go into the mountains anymore. Just play on the side of the mountains for a while and then come back," Mr. Li explained.
This time he took nothing with him and walked into the mountains. He couldn't take nothing at all. He took the matches on the stove with him. Almost all the women in the village were digging wild vegetables in the mountains. Even if they couldn't eat them all at home, they had to be dried. , save it for winter, and was frightened by last year. If Li Laoliu hadn't had a conscience, people in Li's village would have starved to death.
He raised his head and walked toward the mountains to find the bird's nest in the tree.
After walking for an hour, he arrived at the place where he dug the trap yesterday. There were no corn kernels left, but the trap was fine. He simply took out a big pumpkin in the space. Yesterday, he cut into more than ten pieces and cut the pumpkin into half. Place gently on the trap.
He continued to walk towards the mountains, still eating pancakes in his hands. He said that his body was really weak and he had to replenish his body quickly.
By noon, both pancakes had been eaten, and more than 20 bird eggs were collected along the way, including four big birds.
Li Laifu didn't dare to go further into the mountains. Although wild boars in the mountains are ferocious, they won't offend you if you don't mess with them. The key is that wolves and bears must take the initiative to attack when they encounter those two things.
I found some dry firewood on the spot, took out three ears of corn in the space, roasted the corn, looked around, ate the three ears of corn in one breath, and stamped out the fire on the ground. Suddenly, there was movement in the grass... ….
Li Laifu stood there and stared at it. A big snake came out of the grass. Snake? He had encountered a lot of them in his previous life. They were all in the grass in the orphanage yard, so he wasn't afraid since he was a child. He picked up a stick from the ground and knew it was not poisonous by looking at the snake's head. He was no longer afraid. He hit the snake four or five times on the head. When he knew that the snake's head was smashed, he reached out and lifted it up. It weighed three or four kilograms.
Along the way, I was walking and playing. Occasionally, I could pick up two mushrooms to eat. They were yellow and sweet, so I picked some more and put them in the space.
I also saw a mangrove tree in the mountains. This thing is smaller than a hawthorn, and it is a good fruit in this era.
I picked all the mountain reds from the whole small tree, filled the two small pockets of my jacket, and put the extra ones directly into the space.
He wandered leisurely in the mountains for more than two hours before reaching the wild boar trap. He didn't dare to go sideways along the way for fear of getting lost in the mountains, so he returned the same way and didn't harvest any eggs?
Hum…hum.
Damn it, you caught a wild boar, right?
Li Laifu quickly ran towards the trap and saw a large pit in the distance, and there were constant screams inside.
Standing on the edge of the pit, he saw a big pig, only about a hundred pounds, and a small pig spinning in circles in the pit. The pig hair on its body was like a hedgehog, with roots standing on end. Li Laifu looked around and there were no pigs. Other wild boars.
When the wild boar saw someone coming, it became even more panicked and screamed non-stop. Li Laifu quickly found a vine by the tree, entangled the two vines together, and threw it on the wild boar, and it was lifted into the space with a swish.
He also brought a little wild boar weighing more than ten kilograms into the space. He took a look at the space and saw that two pigs, one big and one one small, were placed on the white stone slab. The two pigs were motionless, as if they had entered dormancy. Li Laifu immediately Just know that this is still space.
I glanced at the two sharpened wooden sticks in the pit. They were useless. They couldn't even scratch a pig's skin.
It took another hour to reach the edge of the mountain, and the women were not there? It's probably past four o'clock now.
His small body couldn't carry the wild boar, so he made two vines into ropes and could only lead him home. Is this vine tied to a pig's leg? It must have escaped as soon as it broke away, and it would definitely not be caught if it ran away. The vines were tied around the pig's belly, and the big snake was hung around its neck, and the wild boar was released.
As soon as he took the wild boar out, it started struggling and howling. Li Laifu grabbed the vines with both hands and pulled him down the mountain. The wild boar pulled back and the two of them were like tug-of-war. Every time the wild boar rushed forward, ready to bite him, He quickly pulled the pig forward. Later, the pig also learned the lesson and backed up and stopped running forward.
Li Laifu was dragging him home. As soon as he walked out of the forest, the howling of the pigs could be heard far away. All the men in the village came out. They all thought that the pigs raised in the village had run away. These days, you have to dare to run away the pigs raised in the commune. , this is a huge responsibility. Let alone sharing meat during the New Year, don’t even think about eating pig shit.
I don’t fucking believe it, I can’t get you away,” Li Laifu tugged at the vine and cursed.
"Laifu, where did you get a pig?" Li Chongwu asked. Because his house was the closest to the mountain pass except the old man's house, he was the first to run up.
Li Laifu's body was still too weak and he had been sweating for a long time. He immediately shouted: "Second uncle, I caught this in the mountains, come and help!"
"You are really my living ancestor. You can also catch wild boars," Li Chongwu said as he took the vine from Li Laifu's hand.
"What's going on with the second uncle? What's going on with the second grandpa?" Li Tiezhu and a group of people ran over, and the village chief Li Laoliu also ran behind. At this time, there were about ten men at the intersection.
"Why are you just standing there? Why don't you come over to help? Your Uncle Fu caught this on the mountain," Li Chongwu had already dragged the wild boar to a spacious place.
"Uncle Laifu? Are you going to become a spirit? Yesterday I caught a big fish, and today I brought back the wild boar," Li Tiezhu said, holding the gun in his hand and preparing to shoot.
Damn? It wasn't a gunshot, it was the sound of Li Laoliu kicking Li Tiezhu on the butt and scolding: "You stupid kid, have you finished shooting with a gun? What will you say to the commune? This wild boar is not allowed to be sent to the commune? You are so heartless. Stuff.”
The village chief quickly turned his head and said, "Second uncle, you put the pig down. Let's all go up and hold him down."
Old man Li, the old lady, quickly pulled his grandson aside, touched him here and there and said, "Grandson, are you not hurt? Why are you so tigerish? Do you dare to catch a wild boar?"
Li Laifu smiled and said: "Grandma, I'm not injured, and I'm not stupid. Can I catch the wild boar? This is a trap I dug. It fell into it. I tied it with vines and pulled him up."
"Be careful, don't step on my snake," Li Laifu shouted loudly. He had just been busy competing with the wild boar, and the big snake around his neck fell to the ground.
