Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 736 Steal the bear gallbladder and smash it to pieces!
Upon hearing this, Chang Xifeng immediately turned and left, showing no intention of arguing with him.

Why? In his mind, his gang of dogs had been wiped out in this battle, so the black bear should belong to the two of them. In addition, the two of them contributed men, guns, and dogs, so they should be considered as three of the five. Furthermore, all five dogs were on the verge of death, so they had to pay some compensation. Therefore, Chang Xifeng felt that the black bear had nothing to do with the five of them.

Hey! Where are you going?

Tang Er noticed that Chang Xifeng didn't respond but instead turned to leave, which was a big problem with his attitude, so he stopped him.

Chang Xifeng frowned and stared at the effeminate Tang Er, saying, "I'll go check on the dog."

Li Er's mind raced, and he said, "Let's go together."

Li Laosan squinted and said, "Your dogs are all dead, but that has nothing to do with us. We were just killing the black bear, but they had to rush in and join in. Now look what happened, they didn't even hurt the black bear's fur, but were slapped to death by the black bear."

"Hey, third brother, stop talking. He's already upset about the death of his dog."

Li Laosan retorted, "What does that have to do with us? If his dog hadn't interfered, we would have already killed Black Bear!"

The Li brothers worked together seamlessly, explaining the ins and outs and reasoning behind everything. However, the Chang brothers were not reasonable people either. Or rather, they weren't unreasonable, but they wanted to see who would reason with them!
Listening to their conversation, Tang Er seemed to be deep in thought. He whispered to Tang Hao, "These Chang brothers are incompetent. If we're not careful, this black bear might fall into their hands. Watch my signals later."

Tang Hao blinked twice: "How am I supposed to read your mind?"

"Hey, I just glanced at him and you went up and beat him up."

Tang Hao nodded solemnly. Although his performance was mediocre, he was brave and willing to fight. He was willing to fight anyone and was not afraid of the Chang brothers at all.

Beside them, the Li brothers were also exchanging glances, because they noticed that Chang Xifeng was walking slowly, not in a hurry at all.

When Chang Xifeng walked up to Hei Xiazi and saw Chang Beifeng's actions, he immediately became furious, raised his foot and kicked Chang Beifeng, sending him tumbling.

"Are you fucking playing house here? Why don't you bleed me out and gut me!"

Chang Beifeng ate a mouthful of snow like a dog snatching poop, rolled around on his hands and feet, and hurriedly got up. His eyes were filled with tears, and two lines of ice crystals hung on his cheeks. His lips trembled as he retorted, "How can you be so heartless now? Our dogs are all dead! Don't I have to find a place to bury them? I'm digging a hole here, and you think I'm playing house? Do you even have eyes?!"

Chang Xifeng frowned as he stared at the five dog carcasses lying under the tree. They were all dead. After glancing at them, Chang Xifeng said, "You bleed and gut Hei Xiazi first. We'll find a place to bury these dogs later."

Upon hearing the commotion, Li Laosan hurriedly stepped forward, drew his knife, and said, "I'll cut it open!"

Chang Xifeng suddenly turned around: "What are you doing cutting me open? What's it to you?"

"How can it have nothing to do with me? We're the ones who found this black bear! If you hadn't interfered halfway, we would have killed it long ago."

Chang Xifeng also drew his knife and said, "I don't need you, I'll cut it open myself."

"Hey, it doesn't matter who cuts it, I'm more accurate than you at it."

Without saying a word, Chang Xifeng squatted down next to the black bear's corpse. He first stabbed the neck with a knife, and seeing the blood slowly flowing down, he hurriedly stabbed the black bear in the abdomen. The blade cut open the black bear's abdomen, revealing the white fat inside, which was oozing blood.

When Chang Beifeng noticed this, his heart skipped a beat. Only then did he understand why Chang Xifeng was angry and why he stayed to chat with Tang Er and the others. It turned out that he wanted to buy time to give himself time to extract the bear bile!
Oh dear, Chang Beifeng secretly regretted it. If he hadn't acted impulsively and acted rashly, the bear gall would already be in his pocket, and he wouldn't have had to argue with Tang Er and the others.
"Big brother, I'm going to..."

Hearing the hint of regret in Chang Beifeng's tone, Chang Xifeng silently stepped aside, but glanced at the Li brothers out of the corner of his eye.

Li Er frowned and said, "Chang Xifeng, shouldn't you follow the rules? We were the ones who found this bear; your dog interfered halfway through, otherwise..."

"Hey, Second Brother, why waste words with him? Just say it! Chang Xifeng, this bear gall should be given to us. You can just take the black bear carcass. It'll fetch a few hundred yuan anyway."

Boss Li nodded and said, "That's just how things are on the mountain. We haven't settled accounts with you, so stop pretending to be stupid, okay?"

Chang Xifeng said calmly, "Yeah, I know, let's follow the rules..."

After he finished speaking, the expressions of the three Li brothers softened.

At this moment, Chang Beifeng had already taken out a green gallbladder and tied the opening of the gallbladder tube tightly.

Just as he was about to turn around with the bear gall bladder in his hand, a figure suddenly appeared from his left. It was none other than the honest and simple Tang Er. He reached out and grabbed the bear gall bladder from Chang Beifeng's hand, holding it in his arms and shouting, "Why bother reasoning with them? Are they reasonable people?"

Chang Beifeng was stunned for a moment. When he saw that the bear gallbladder had been stolen, he immediately shouted, "Brother, he stole our bear gallbladder!"

Chang Xifeng turned around and saw that the bear gallbladder had fallen into Tang Er's hands. His expression changed instantly, and he picked up the old hoe and was about to point the gun at Tang Er.

Li Laosan, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly and rushed forward to press down on the barrel of the old man's gun. Chang Xifeng subconsciously touched the trigger, and a gunshot rang out!
Bang!
The gunshot startled everyone, and they all froze in place.

"Damn it, he dares to fire! Get him!"

As soon as Tang Er finished speaking, Tang Hao suddenly strode forward, raised his hand and clenched his fist to strike Chang Beifeng's face. This was because Chang Beifeng had hugged Tang Er after the gunshot ended, in a rather indecent manner. He had hugged Tang Er from behind and reached out to grab the bear gall bladder that Tang Er was protecting in front of his chest.

When Tang Hao punched Chang Beifeng in the face, he suddenly leaned back, still holding onto the bear gall bladder, and lay down in the snow with Tang Er in his arms. Tang Hao kicked him twice, but Chang Beifeng was not easy to deal with. Based on his years of experience being beaten, he reacted immediately, rolled over with Tang Er in his arms, so that Tang Er's chest was facing Tang Hao's toes.

Unable to control his strength, Tang Hao kicked the two men's hands, which were clutching the bear gallbladders, with remarkable precision. Due to the injury, their hands clenched uncontrollably.

This tight grip caused the bear bile sac to be crushed, just like squeezing a basket!

"Holy crap... It's broken, it's broken..."

Tang Er looked down in utter terror and saw that the greenish-yellow bile had spilled onto his sleeve and the snow.

On the other side, before the bear gall bladder broke, after Li Laosan pounced on and pinned down the old man's handle, Li Laoda and Li Er rushed over at the same time.

Li Laoda kicked Chang Xifeng down from the tree with a flying kick, Li Er hit Chang Xifeng twice with his eyes, and Li Laosan quickly kicked the old hoe handle that had fallen in the snow twice, trying to get the snow into the gun barrel. Then Li Laosan rushed over and kicked Chang Xifeng in the stomach.

As the saying goes, two hands can't fight off four feet. Chang Xifeng was beaten so badly that he couldn't fight back. He could only lean against the tree trunk, cover his head, and silently endure the beating.

In just over 10 seconds, a sound of "crackling" came from the side.

The Li brothers stopped and took two steps back, then rushed to Tang Hao and asked, "What broke?"

Li Laosan thought it was in his groin and said, "Hurry up and go to the clinic in town, maybe they can still sew it up!"

Once Tang Er was freed from restraint, he raised his arm and elbowed backward, shouting, "What the hell are you sewing up! The bear gall is crushed! This bastard crushed the bear gall!"

"What the hell?" Li Er exclaimed in disbelief.

Tang Er quickly stood up, turned around and kicked Chang Beifeng, then raised his sleeve and said, "Look at my sleeve and the ground, it's all covered in bile! There's nothing left in my gallbladder!"

"..." Chang Beifeng got up from the ground and retorted, "You're talking nonsense, that's him..."

"You're talking nonsense! You're talking nonsense! You're talking nonsense! You're the one who crushed it, and you still won't admit it. If you hadn't been hugging me from behind and trying to take the bear gallbladder from me, would the bear gallbladder have broken?"

Tang Er wisely avoided blaming Tang Hao for the incident. After all, they were brothers, and the Li brothers didn't have a good relationship with them, so they couldn't tell the truth. Otherwise, the Li and Chang brothers would turn around and beat them up.

Tang Hao strode forward, raised his hand and slapped Chang Beifeng twice, cursing, "Stop talking nonsense! If you didn't crush it, why are you trying to take it?"

Enraged by this, the Li brothers rushed forward and began beating Chang Beifeng. Chang Xifeng, clutching his stomach and head, limped to where the old broken handle had fallen, picked it up, and shouted, "Stop fucking hitting me! If you hit me again, I'll blow you all to bits!"

"Hey, damn it, who are you going to shoot? I think you've had enough of getting beaten up, go beat him up!"

Immediately, the five men turned around and attacked Chang Xifeng again, punching and kicking him until they suddenly heard a dog barking in the distance.

Tang Er clutched his gallbladder and said, "This time it might be Xu Ning who's coming. He really is nearby."

Li Laosan said, "What's the use of him coming? We've already finished fighting, why would he help Chang Xifeng?"

Tang Hao shook his head: "No way, he has some conflicts with those two brothers from the Chang family. They used to not speak to each other, and they've even fought before. Didn't you know?"

"I've heard about it, but I don't know the specifics."

Chang Xifeng sat in the snow, clutching his stomach, filled with resentment. He had originally intended to draw his knife and strike them, but the thought of his wife and child calmed him down.

Chang Beifeng, with a mournful face, shouted, "Why did you hit me? Huh! Why? If you hadn't stolen the bear gallbladder, would it have been broken? Why are you blaming me? I'm innocent! I'm innocent!"

"Stop your damn whine! What grievance do you have? It's because you two brothers wanted to eat bear bile that the bile broke. If we don't punish you, who should we punish? It's all your own fault!"

Tang Er cursed and said, "You two are not human, you have no humanity! We tried to reason with you, but you wouldn't listen and forced us to use force..."

“Chang Xifeng fired the first shot, otherwise would we have been able to make a move?” Li Laosan added.

"No problem! If you hadn't fired first, would we have even bothered to attack? Now you know you were wrong? Too late! We should have buried you both and the dog here. Your dog is truly wronged for following you two..."

Tang Er kept talking, making Chang Xifeng so angry that his stomach was about to explode, but he couldn't refute it because at least 80% of what he said was true.

Li, the eldest brother, said, "Now that the bear bile is broken, all that's left is the bear meat. Let's split it among the five of us."

"Just put a rope around them and drag them away! Who cares if they live or die..."

Just then, the barking of dogs in the distance grew closer and closer, and one could vaguely make out five people leading a pack of dogs running towards them in a grand procession.

Xu Ning managed to call back the Blue Wolf, Black Wolf, and Flower Wolf. As long as the lead dog turned around and ran back, the rest of the pack dogs would follow. So Xu Ning and the others immediately tied the dogs up. However, even after tying them up, the Blue Wolf and Black Wolf didn't stop barking. They pulled on the ropes and lunged forward while barking.

After sensing the urgency in the blue wolves' voices, Xu Ning followed their lead and ran over.

After the dog gang led Xu Ning and the others here by the rope, the dog gang's barking did not stop, but instead grew louder and louder, deafeningly loud. Xu Ning and the other five were dumbfounded when they saw the scene in front of them.

what happened?

"Ning! You've finally arrived! Oh my god, let me tell you, those Chang brothers are scoundrels! They actually set their dogs on us to steal our black bears, and then they tried to steal our bear gallbladders too! What's worse, Chang Beifeng even crushed the bear gallbladders!"

Tang Er swung his twisted legs and came running, but stopped in front of the dog gang. He was still quite afraid of the fierce dogs like the Blue Wolf and the Black Wolf.

Li Fuqiang frowned and said, "Speak properly. Did you leave your vocal cords at home? Stop speaking in a high-pitched voice, okay?"

"Oh, I'm just used to it, Brother Li, let me tell you..."

"Stop babbling, Tang Hao is right here."

"Hey, Qiang-ge, Erning..."

Tang Hao greeted him, and Xu Ning noticed that the battle seemed quite intense. The Chang brothers had bruises on their faces, and there were not only five dog corpses in the snow, but also the corpse of a black bear.

"What exactly happened?"

Tang Er was about to speak when Tang Hao stopped him, saying, "It's like this..."

He finished telling the whole story, only changing the story from him kicking the bear gallbladder to Chang Beifeng crushing the bear gallbladder.

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze towards the Chang brothers changed.

The loudmouth scoffed, "This isn't the first time these two have done something like this. They're disgusting when they do things! Let's not talk about the distant past, but just look at the recent one. Everyone knows how Yang Dong died, right? He was pounced on by a big cat, but neither of them went to give him a gift. My god, they're really terrible at doing things."

Li Er said, "Anyway, that's how things are. I don't think we did anything wrong."

Wang Hu grinned and said, "No problem. His dog stole the goods halfway and refused to share the profits with you, so it's only right that you beat them up."

Xu Ning nodded, glanced at the Chang brothers, and asked, "Are you heading back? If you have time, could you help us pull a couple of animals?"

“Let’s go back, okay! Third brother, you and Tang Hao go and drag Black Bear away, we’ll split it in half.”

Chang Beifeng sat down next to Hei Xiazi and said, "Why? We killed Hei Xiazi with our own two legs."

"Shut the fuck up! If you say another word, I'll beat you up!"

Chang Beifeng was so frightened that he didn't dare to utter a sound. He was only tough and capable at home; to outsiders, he was like a mouse seeing a cat.

Li Laosan and Tang Hao quickly tied the black bear with a rope, and then Li Laoda came over to lend a hand. The three of them pulled the black bear down the mountain.

Xu Ning and the others led their dogs down the mountain ahead of time, with Li Er following closely behind, because he could tell that Xu Ning seemed to have something to say to him.

"Everyone has their own reasons in this matter; it just depends on who speaks first. Although the Chang brothers aren't well-liked in our village, you are from another village after all..."

Li Er blinked and said, "You mean we should hurry back? Go to Qing'an Village to spread the word first, and then go back to our village to spread the word?"

"That's pretty much it. Strike first, strike hard; strike later, suffer the consequences. Tang Hao's too clumsy with words; he can't say anything..."

Li Er laughed, "Tang Hao is indeed clumsy with words, but his second brother is anything but. You didn't hear it just now, he scolded the Chang brothers so badly they didn't dare to utter a sound. My god, he's even more ruthless than that old woman..."
