After two days of drizzle, the small mountain village finally got a sunny day.
When the whistle sounded, Jinsha Village became busy again.
The discharge day was originally scheduled for today, but we had to take a break for two days because of the rain. We still had to wait until enough bamboos were counted before we could release the bamboo.
Li Shiqiang could just take advantage of this period to dry the herbs brought out from the mountains, and then take them to the city to sell them together.
After spreading the herbs all over the yard, Li Shiqiang also took his brothers-in-law Tong Shunqiang and Xu Sheng into the mountain.
The reason why they entered the mountain so late today was because their main purpose of entering the mountain this time was not to hunt, but to roll tree bark.
Last time he and Xu Sheng were busy for several hours, and they only removed five or six pounds of eucommia bark.
Today I have my brother-in-law who is used to doing hard work to help me, so I guess I can lose at least a dozen pounds.
"Erwa, when we go into the mountains this time, we won't offend the yellow tiger again, right?"
During the journey, Xu Sheng inevitably looked worried.
When he heard that Huang Laohu sneaked into Li's house in the middle of the night and had a fierce battle with Li Shiqiang, he felt a little scared.
If Huang Laohu went to his house instead of Li's house that night, things might have been different.
Li Shiqiang took five and six half, rolled his eyes at Xu Sheng angrily and said, "I haven't entered the mountain yet, can you say something nice? Also, do you think the mountain is full of yellow tigers?"
"What are you afraid of? Just hit him again. Didn't Erba already hit a yellow tiger?"
The brother-in-law Tong Shunqiang on the side smiled and was not worried at all.
In his opinion, Li Shiqiang had already killed the yellow tiger, and there were basically no wild beasts in the mountains that could stop them.
"Brother Qiang, although we are mainly going to plant trees this time, we still have to be careful. There are still many powerful beasts in the mountains."
Li Shiqiang shook his head and explained to his brother-in-law.
After all, he was a member of his family, and he didn't want his brother-in-law to get hurt.
"Don't worry, your eldest sister told me."
Tong Shunqiang smiled and nodded, but did not take his words to heart.
Seeing this, Li Shiqiang had no choice but to pay more attention to the surrounding situation.
The last time my brother-in-law followed them into the mountains, he had seen neither a pack of wolves nor a yellow tiger, and he still didn't know how powerful those beasts were.
"We've arrived at Laowu Mountain. Let's eat something first before going up the mountain."
"good!"
The three of them had something to eat at Laowu Mountain. After resting for a while, they got up and went into the mountain.
After entering the mountain, we went straight to the place where the Eucommia trees grew.
Li Shiqiang simply turned a blind eye to some pheasants or other animals he occasionally encountered on the road.
These little animals can only eat some meat after being beaten, and their furs can't be sold for much money. It's better to cut off some tree bark first.
He will not stop until he encounters another fragrant deer.
"Er baby! Look! It's the fragrant deer again!"
Isn't it?
Come whatever you want! ?
Listening to Xu Sheng's excited shout, Li Shiqiang, who was on his way, quickly stopped and looked in the direction of Xu Sheng's finger.
really!
In the direction Xu Sheng pointed, there was a fragrant deer with vampire teeth.
The fragrant deer was standing in front of a bush, eating young leaves, its two little ears turning back and forth.
Li Shiqiang quickly put a finger to his mouth, gestured to the two of them, and then pointed to the ground to tell them to stay where they were.
Both deer deer and muntjac are timid cervids, and will run away like crazy at the slightest sign of trouble.
In order not to disturb the fragrant deer and successfully obtain the musk, Li Shiqiang was also prepared to approach alone.
When he came to a distance of 300 meters from the fragrant deer, he found a good shooting angle and raised the five or six halves in his hand.
Thinking of the precious musk, Li Shiqiang did not shoot directly, but patiently waited for the moment when the fragrant deer ate.
The distance of three hundred meters is neither far nor close.
Without the presence of the hunting dog, it is very likely that it would have escaped if it had not been killed by one shot.
"call..."
Li Shiqiang took a breath and narrowed one eye.
By chance, this fragrant deer was lowering its head and biting the young leaves on the shrub.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
After a series of three violent gunshots, Li Shiqiang immediately ran out with his gun in hand.
The brothers-in-law Tong Shunqiang and Xu Sheng behind him also quickly followed.
But just after the two ran for a while, they saw Li Shiqiang in front of them suddenly slowing down.
They turned around and saw that the fragrant deer had already fallen to the ground and was not moving.
"Hahaha, great! Another fragrant deer!"
Xu Sheng laughed loudly, full of pride.
Li Shiqiang was also sighing at this time, his luck seems to be a bit good today!
Although no one is hunting the fragrant deer on a large scale yet, it is rare to encounter the fragrant deer just after entering the mountains.
After Li Shiqiang led the two of them to the place where Xiang Deerzi fell, he put it directly into the backpack.
"Er baby, how are you? I have sharp eyes, right?"
Listening to the many requests for credit, Li Shiqiang chuckled and nodded, giving a thumbs up and praising: "Top!"
"hey-hey."
Xu Sheng chuckled and took the initiative to carry the bamboo basket on his back.
The place where they captured the fragrant deer seeds was just across the road from the Eucommia ulmoides tree. After driving for a while, the three of them arrived at today's destination.
"Brother Qiang, this is the Eucommia tree. Just scrape off the bark."
"OK."
Brother-in-law Tong Shunqiang nodded happily, then looked at Li Shiqiang and said, "How about I do it here alone, and you guys go to the mountains for a walk?"
Brother-in-law Tong Shunqiang felt that it was not worth just coming to the mountain to scrape tree bark.
When Xu Sheng on the side heard this, his eyes were a little moved. If he could do it again...
"No, let's scrape off all the Eucommia ulmoides before we talk about beating things."
Li Shiqiang shook his head, very worried about leaving his brother-in-law here alone.
It's already great to be able to hunt one more fragrant deer today.
"Okay, then I'll do it!"
"Bah! Bah!"
After his brother-in-law Tong Shunqiang spit two mouthfuls of dry saliva into the palm of his hand, he took out a chisel and hammer and knocked on the tree. After knocking the bark in, he pulled the bark down and tore it open, and finally cut it with a hatchet.
Seeing that his brother-in-law was already doing it so neatly, Li Shiqiang was ready to pick up the tools and start working.
But as soon as he took two steps, he suddenly noticed a few things under his feet that were particularly familiar to him.
"Isn't it? Why are you so lucky today?" He shouted excitedly, suppressing his voice, and quickly crouched on the ground and looked at the two clams.
Another fragrant deer and two clams.
He simply couldn't even think about it.
Suddenly, a dirty little boy appeared in Li Shiqiang's mind.
"Second brother, I wish you would get sick every day, go to the mountains every time until you can't come back, and I wish you would never make money no matter what you do."
"Others say I am a disaster star who wants to kill everyone around me, so I have to say the opposite."
That afternoon, Gou Wazi personally said a series of reversed "blessings" to him, and the words before leaving would not let anyone see the flesh, and it didn't take long for Li Shiqiang's second aunt to see it.
Really everything is the other way around!
Li Shiqiang sighed in his heart and thought with some emotion: Why are you a disaster star? You are clearly my lucky star!
