The next day, it was still dark.
Li Shiqiang got up from the bed.
He glanced at Xiao Xuemei sleeping on the bed and shook his head helplessly.
Even though Xiao Xuemei repeatedly promised not to wet the bed last night.
But when he just got up, he still noticed a wet patch on the sheets next to him.
Li Shiqiang opened the quilt, moved Xiao Xuemei into his bed, and then walked out of the house with a gun.
As soon as he opened the door, Chen Xianglan, who was in the room opposite, just walked out of the room.
"Er baby, why did you get up so early today?"
This morning, Li Shiqiang went hunting earlier than before.
Mother Chen Xianglan has just gotten up and hasn’t started making breakfast yet.
"Mom, I won't eat this morning. You can bake me two sweet potatoes and let me eat them on the way."
"What the hell, why didn't you even have breakfast?"
"I'm in a hurry. Let's go get something early."
"I never saw you getting up so early when I was studying before, but now you get up so early to do things."
Chen Xianglan didn't know much about hunting, and she didn't understand why her son had to go into the mountains so early. But seeing her son working so hard, she quickly took out the eggs that others had given her two days ago.
"Er baby, don't eat sweet potatoes in the morning. I'll boil some white eggs for you and you can eat them on the way."
"OK."
After Li Shiqiang waited for Chen Xianglan to cook the eggs, he hurried out the door.
Of course, deer whip is the best when it comes to whips.
As for deer, they are basically active at night and early in the morning.
That's why Li Shiqiang went out into the mountains so early this time in order to catch the deer whip before the release.
It just so happens that it's May, which is when deer grow new antlers and develop antlers.
But in the mountains, if someone really encounters a deer, they won't care what month it is and just shoot it.
Because in addition to antlers, deer also have valuable things such as deer whip, deer heart, deer blood, deer tail, deer tendons, and deer hooves.
There was silence on the desolate mountain road.
Li Shiqiang felt the darkness all the way, walking alone on the mountain road with Xiao Hua, and it was inevitable that he felt a little scared.
I didn't feel anything yesterday, but today I feel weird.
He calmed down, immediately picked up the five and six half in his hand and fired two shots in the air.
"Bang!" "Bang!"
After two violent gunshots, Li Shiqiang immediately noticed something running away in the nearby forest.
"There is indeed something!"
Li Shiqiang exclaimed and quickly walked away from here.
The sky was pitch black now, with only a little bit of moonlight shining through. No matter how accurate his shooting skills were, he might not be able to hit those beasts in the darkness.
He just didn't know what the beast was that was staring at him just now. It actually ran near their Qingxia Mountain, and not even Xiaohua, who had been staying next to him, noticed it.
It seems that after returning home, I must give instructions to my family.
.......
After the sun gradually emerged above his head, Li Shiqiang finally arrived at Laowu Mountain.
It was early in the morning, so he didn't dare to hesitate and went straight up the mountain.
The sunny side and windward side of the mountain is usually where plants first sprout and grow young leaves.
Cervids also like to eat these young leaves.
So after Li Shiqiang went up the mountain, he immediately rushed towards the hillside where the sun shines first.
But not long after he went up, he heard a series of dog barks.
"Is this? A dog chasing prey?"
Li Shiqiang frowned. He didn't expect that when he came to Laowu Mountain so early, he would encounter hunters hunting.
And this was the first time he met other hunters in the mountains in the past two months.
"Woof woof woof woof..."
Listening to the approaching dog barking, Li Shiqiang also noticed something was wrong.
Because he found that the barking dog seemed to be getting closer to him, as if it was chasing something and rushing towards him.
After a while, a figure suddenly jumped out of a bush in front of Li Shiqiang.
Four-pronged horns, brownish-yellow, with white plum blossom spots.
It turned out to be the sika deer that Li Shiqiang had been longing for.
What a coincidence!
Li Shiqiang had no time to marvel, and thoughts quickly arose in his mind.
Do you want to fight the sika deer that appears in front of you?
If you don't hunt, you will miss this precious sika deer.
And if it were to be fought, it would be a fool's errand.
Hunters hate having other hunters cut off their heads.
Before some hunters go up the mountain, they will make special marks to tell others that someone has hunted here today.
But if you miss it, you will have to go to the county seat tomorrow. If you wait until the next time, you will waste several days.
When Li Shiqiang was hesitating, he realized that the sika deer in front of him was already running towards him. The barking dogs behind the deer were still far away, and no trace of a hound could be seen.
They're so far apart, and they're still so stupid!
Li Shiqiang was convinced, and then he raised the five-six-and-a-half in his hand and aimed it at the sika deer rushing towards his face.
At this time, the sika deer seemed to have just noticed a figure appearing in front of it. In panic, it immediately stopped suddenly, then suddenly turned around and tried to escape in another direction.
But at this time, Li Shiqiang had already pulled the trigger.
"boom!"
"boom!"
In order to prevent accidents, Li Shiqiang pointed directly at the sika deer and fired two shots quickly.
And when he was about to fire the third shot, he found that the sika deer disappeared from his gun line.
He put away the gun and saw that the sika deer had fallen to the ground.
The little flower next to him also quickly rushed out, biting the neck of the sika deer lying on the ground.
Li Shiqiang ran over quickly.
At this time, the sika deer was not dead yet, but still a little dying.
He was afraid that the deer's antlers would hurt Xiaohua, so he first pulled Xiaohua away, then took out a hatchet and killed the sika deer directly.
After the sika deer completely stopped moving, he looked up and found that the chasing dogs had not arrived yet.
Simply, he cut off the deer antlers and stuffed them into the bamboo basket, then cut off the deer whip and put them in together.
And after he finished doing this, a hunting dog finally came out of the woods and came straight here.
"Woof woof woof..."
When the three hunting dogs saw Li Shiqiang, they immediately surrounded him, roaring at him and looking eager to try.
Xiaohua, who had just let go, suddenly felt like her hair was exploding. She stood in front of Li Shiqiang and barked at the three hunting dogs on the opposite side without fear.
Li Shiqiang ignored the three hunting dogs and continued to cut open the sika deer's belly with a hatchet. He first took out the intestines and tripe, and then carefully cut off the deer's heart.
The deer heart must be taken out when the deer is just dead, otherwise it will be in vain.
And just when he was about to put away the deer heart, a figure finally emerged from the forest.
What followed was an angry scolding: "Whoever steals my prey doesn't want to be left alone, right?"
