Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 95 Beware of the Big Yellow Speaker and Load the Gun

1983 11 Month 23 Day.

On the 19th day of the 10th month of the lunar calendar, there is light snow.

At five o'clock, it was dark outside and unusually quiet.

The second room in the west room of the Chai family lit up with a warm yellow light.

Inside the room, Xu Ning pushed Wang Hu on the shoulders, urging him to get up quickly.

Wang Hu wiped the porcelain from the corner of his eyes, opened the quilt sleepily, sat up with one hand on the mattress, took out his autumn clothes and long trousers from under the mattress and put them on.

Xu Ning put on the leggings on the edge of the kang, while Li Fuqiang put on cotton trousers and ran outside the house with his shoes to go to the latrine to solve personal problems.

When Li Fuqiang came back shivering with cold in his cotton-padded jacket, Xu Ning had just washed his face in the outer room and wiped the back of his ears with a handkerchief, while Wang Hu was folding the quilt in the room and putting the quilt on the quilt at the end of the kang. pile.

Li Fuqiang reminded the two of them to put their sheepskin cotton-padded jackets inside their cotton-padded jackets. The temperature outside must be more than 30 degrees below zero. Don't get cold and catch a cold, which will make things worse.

Xu Ning and Wang Hu both listened to the advice, and while they were lassoing the sheepskin monkey, Chai Shao and the third sister-in-law came into the house carrying a rice bowl and two pots of vegetables.

They didn't think it was troublesome so they didn't put the table and put the rice bowl and vegetable basin on the kang. Just when they were about to serve the rice and use the chopsticks, the third sister-in-law pushed the door and walked in. She was holding the kang table in her hands and glared at Chai Bing angrily.

"Put it on the table and eat too much. Why are you so anxious?"

Chai Bing grinned and did not dare to confront this old lady.

After all, his wife got up at around 4:30 and started preparing meals for them, working in the dark for a while.

He deserves all the credit for his hard work. If Chai Bing could bear to get angry with his wife because of this little thing, wouldn't that be a joke?

Since there were no vegetables left over from last night, Sister-in-law-in-law made some cold dishes, including a homemade tofu stew and a stir-fried cabbage with fungus.

This is pure wild mountain fungus. Xu Ning is very happy to eat it. He chews it in his mouth and it tastes great.

The four of them made two bowls of rice with great appetite. Just when Xu Ning put down his chopsticks, there was a sound of motorcycles outside the hospital.

Chai Bing was stunned, "Why did you come here on a motorcycle? It would be great if we picked up a few of them along the way."

"We won't go up the mountain from Xiaotianmu Dingzi." Xu Ning ran down to the ground, pulled on his shoes and walked out.

"Where can I go up the mountain?"

"Lao Jingou! Just leave it over there and get closer."

Chai Bing leaned back, put down his chopsticks, put both hands on the kang, moved to the edge of the kang, and said, "Ah."

Immediately, Xu Ning walked quickly out the door. He was afraid that the dog gang would wake up and disturb Chai's family while they were sleeping.

It was only half past five. How could a normal person get up so early? Chai Liangyu was only a little older.

Chai Bing put on his shoes, turned around and said, "You guys pack up, don't forget to bring anything, I'll go out and take a look."

"alright."

After Chai Bing went out, he saw Xu Ning squatting in front of the shack comforting the dog, and said, "Brother, they can bite if they like."

"The kids are sleeping in the house. You heat up the car, and the three of us will be out soon."

"alright."

Chai Bing opened the courtyard door and saw Huang Guofu, Da Xiaoxiao and Zhang Liang.

Although the fight between Daoshanli and Big Horn was quite unpleasant yesterday, Big Horn came to help, and Chai Bing couldn't make a fool of himself afterwards, as that would look stingy.

Xu Ning watched the dog gang and asked the green wolves to lie down in the shack without calling.

At this moment, Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu walked out carrying 56 and a half and Budouzi. Li Fuqiang patted Budou and said, "Brother, you guys have brought everything."

"Let's go then."

The three of them stepped outside the hospital and greeted Huang Guofu and the others.

Big Speaker rubbed his hands and grinned, "I called Xu Pao last night. I heard from him that he's pretty good at playing tricks."

"generally."

The loudspeaker asked again: "How many animals have Wangxing hunted? I heard that both the green wolf and the black wolf have been hunted by you, so you can't beat them at least 1,800 kilograms?"

Wang Hu threw the things into the car, turned to look at him, and curled his lips: "Eighteen hundred catties? Who are you looking down on..."

Xu Ning patted Wang Hu on the arm and said: "Hu Zi! We are only looking for someone today, don't talk any more!"

"Yeah, second brother. Third brother, shall we go?"

"Let's go! You three, get in the carriage. There's grass inside for your cushions."

After Chai Bing said this, he opened the door and got into the car. Since the car glass was covered with frost, he wiped it with a rag.

After Xu Ning, Wang Hu and Li Fuqiang were seated, Huang Guofu, Da Xiaoxiao and Zhang Liang also got into the carriage.

Chai Bing glanced at the rearview mirror, put the gear into gear, stepped on the accelerator, and turned the steering wheel to drive forward.

On the way, Chai Bing was driving and found that the three of Xu Ning were a little silent, so he asked what was going on.

Wang Hu sat next to him and said quietly: "There is a loudspeaker in the carriage. If we talk about anything, he will have to tell us when we get back."

"Ah...that eldest brother Huang Guofu?"

"Yeah, third brother, you have to be careful when you speak, this guy's mouth is like a cotton waistband, he dares to spit out anything."

"Isn't this just like old ladies?"

"What are you talking about? He can't even keep up with that good old lady!"

Li Fuqiang said: "He and Xu Pao live in the same village, which is only two or three miles away from Qing'an. It's quite close."

"Ah, then I understand, we are going to focus on keeping silent today, right?"

"Yeah, just stay silent. Don't say anything to him..."

Xu Ning smiled and said, "You have to chat when you have to, but not with him. This person's loose mouth is very annoying. Don't talk about the tiger when we see him."

"Don't worry, I can't talk about this." Driving eastward, the car swayed and arrived at Laojingou. Chai Bing pulled over and parked the car on the mountain road.

When everyone jumped out of the car with their cloth bags, 56 and a half and shotguns, Huang Daxiao came over and asked: "Are we coming to Gadaganha? Aren't we looking for someone?"

Zhang Liang sniffed and said, "Laojingou is close to the cellar. If we go this way, we can save two or three miles."

"Then why didn't you say anything yesterday?"

"Yesterday you said you would follow the path we took into the mountains, how dare I mention it."

"Fuck, you're just kidding... Hey, Xu Ning, how long have you been here for? I see you guys are quite familiar with each other."

Xu Ning glanced at him and said to Zhang Liang: "Let's go up the mountain first."

"Eh."

Huang Daxiao looked at Xu Ning and ignored him. Instead of being angry, he smiled: "This kid is just like his father, haha..."

Xu Ning turned to look at him and pointed at him, "I don't need you to compete with me."

"Hey, why are you still angry? I didn't say anything."

Huang Guofu put him next to him and pulled his arm and sleeve, "Brother, please stop saying a few words."

"Hey, don't let me talk, it's so frustrating. I'm just thinking..."

Xu Ning, Zhang Liang, Wang Hu and others walked in front and had no time to listen to the loudspeaker. Huang Guofu also felt a little regretful when he saw it. It would be better not to let the loudspeaker come this time to save both sides from causing trouble.

Zhang Liang's legs and feet were very fast. As he walked, he told Xu Ning: "Go forward two miles, go around a ditch, and climb two hills to see the farmhouse."

"Well, even if someone finds you, you have to be mentally prepared."

Zhang Liang paused and nodded stiffly: "Well, I know... those wolves..."

"Wolf? I can't control it. Even if you look at me, you can't take any risks. Do you understand? I only promise you to find people, but I don't care about revenge."

"Understood! I understand. I'm very grateful that you can agree to this."

"Don't mention the matter of killing the warehouse today."

"You know, can my brother really be found back?"

"I have to see what's going on first, I don't dare to make a guarantee now."

"Okay, no matter what, I have to thank you."

"No need to thank you, that's all we have to do. I'll help you find someone, and you can help me find a position."

Xu Ning didn't want him to do favors. It's better to have a purpose in this kind of thing, otherwise Xu Ning wouldn't be able to help in vain.

What are you doing with that idle guy? It would be so comfortable to sit on the hot bed at home and drink some tea.

As for Zhang Liang kneeling down to Huang Guofu's father and Chai Shao, there was no other way.

No matter how hard he tries, he can't kneel down and beg for help.

Because this method of asking for help is very offensive to people, so it only works this time. The next time he kneels down, even if he knocks himself to death at the door of his house, no one else will agree.

This is how it is in rural areas. No matter what happens to a family, the neighbors can't look at it. But if the matter is beyond the scope of ability, then there is really no way to do it, and it is really powerless.

Xu Ning saw that Zhang Liang was familiar with this mountain, so he asked casually: "Have you ever looked at deer and roe deer here?"

"I haven't seen a deer, but I have seen a roe deer. Yesterday, the three of us went to the bluestone and looked at the footprints."

"What kind?"

"It's like two crescent moons closing together."

Xu Ning turned around with a sullen face and glanced at the loudspeaker that was chatting with Huang Guofu.

If it weren't for his four dogs yesterday, Xu Ning would definitely have seen the deer. Whether that was possible is another matter, but that was still a hope.

Therefore, for a while he was completely fed up with the big yellow speaker.

The group walked quickly forward for six or seven miles, bypassed a ditch, and then climbed a mountain. Xu Ning asked Zhang Liang to walk slowly, and then the seven people walked up the mountain in a row, about 20 meters apart.

"Third brother, you load the guns. I think something is wrong with this scene."

"Hey!" Chai Bing nodded.

Big Speaker frowned and said, "What's wrong? Why didn't I see it?"

Li Fuqiang retorted: "If you could see it out, you wouldn't have to come with us to track him down. You found him yesterday, so why bother putting so much effort into it?"

"Hey, you are talking about you. Let me ask you a few questions. Are you holding a gun and a stick and yelling at me? Why do I talk so bad? Do you talk bad too?"

Li Fuqiang waved his hand, "Don't talk to me, you have such a bad taste."

"It's just nonsense. I only eat two cloves of garlic in the morning. How delicious can it be?"

Li Fuqiang felt helpless towards him and just turned his head to look at Wang Hu, then shook his head and smiled silently.

This big yellow speaker is also very interesting. It pretends to be upright when placed outside, but it softens when it is really hard.

And he loves to laugh at himself. Even if Li Fuqiang said something to him, he would not take it seriously and would just pick up the conversation.

It made Li Fuqiang want to quarrel with him, but he couldn't.

Chai Bing glanced at Xu Ning and asked, "Brother, what's going on?"

"Do you remember those two wolf-gnawed eggs we were looking at?"

Chai Bing looked to the left, "At the other end of Erdaogou, it's two or three miles away from here. What's going on?"

"I think they are the same group. Combined with what happened a few days ago, they might have been driven out after hearing the noise... This forest is quite quiet. Maybe they are just cats here."

Chai Bing was stunned when he heard this, and said in shock: "Huh? Damn it, you have to load it, Hu Zi, you two come closer to me."
