Return to 1983: Starting from hunting in the mountains

Chapter 28 Silly Roe Deer! bacon
  The last time he encountered a boar, Lu Jiansheng still felt a little frightened when he thought about it. But now that he had a gun, if this was a herd of wild boars without a boar, he would make a lot of money.

Lu Jiansheng took long strides and hurriedly chased after him. He chased for more than two hours and climbed over several mountain ridges. As a result, the snow in the sky became heavier and heavier. The heavy snow almost covered the wild boar's footprints. There was no trace in front of him. He continued to chase. It doesn't make sense either.

Lu Jiansheng secretly thought it was a pity, but he also knew that this was normal. After all, some wild boars might be frightened and run for a long time, and there was no way they could catch up.
  Moreover, Bai Changshan is so big that there is a vast expanse of white surrounding it. Even if he is experienced, he may get lost in the mountain if he continues chasing.

"I wish I had a dog!"

Lu Jiansheng couldn't help but sigh. If you want to hunt in the mountains, in addition to the weapons in your hands, you also need a loyal partner, that is, a hunting dog. It is very important to have a dog in hand when hunting in the mountains. Dogs have a keen sense of smell, so there is no need to worry in the mountains. You can also give early warning when you get lost or encounter danger, and you can also be a helpful helper when encountering wild beasts. Like today, if there was a hunting dog, Lu Jiansheng would not give up halfway.

In fact, Lu Jiansheng has had the idea of ​​raising a dog for a long time, but dogs are hard to find these days, and good dogs are even harder to find. In the past, every household in the village kept a dog to look after the house! There are some good dogs among them,
  But you must know that there was a total ban on dogs in the early 1980s, and the township even set up a dog hunting team for this purpose! The village also responded to the call! Now there are no more than one or two dogs in the village! If he wants to get a good dog, he can only try his luck in other villages.

Then Lu Jiansheng walked back and was about to reach his hunting cabin after climbing over the ridge. Suddenly, he felt that his feet were empty, and he suddenly felt something bad.

"Missed!"

The heavy snow covered a gap that was originally a gap. As soon as he stepped on the air, his body suddenly became unstable. Lu Jiansheng fell down immediately. He immediately protected his head. You may encounter danger anytime and anywhere while hunting in the mountains. Especially in this situation, it would be the stupidest thing to try to get up.

The bottom of the ridge was not steep, and it stopped within a moment. Lu Jiansheng climbed up with difficulty. He was not injured, but he felt a little cold.

He took off his shoes and was preparing to warm himself by the fire in the wooden house and have a good rest! But at this moment, a fierce sound similar to the barking of a dog was vaguely heard.

Lu Jiansheng finished eating the roasted hare! Seeing how heavy the wind and snow were outside, he had no plans to go hunting.

After being roasted by the fire, his body shivered and he felt comfortable! !

At this moment, Lu Jiansheng couldn't help but sigh at his wise decision to build this hunting cabin in the mountains.
  Lu Jian went back to the hunting house to warm himself by the fire for a while, and Xiu's body also recovered.

Lu Jiansheng took out a wooden stick, tied the wild rabbit to it with wire, and then sprinkled some salt specially brought from home on it! Roast it over the fire,

But today’s delay! Only one hare was caught. Lu Jiansheng took another look at the trap. There was no bird. However, Lu Jiansheng was also prepared. This kind of trap is usually set at night, not to mention such a heavy wind and snow.

Lu Jiansheng realized that the situation was not good, so he hurried to the hunting cabin.

Not long after, the oil beads began to sizzle, slowly turned golden, and began to have a rich and attractive burnt aroma.

All the way back to the hunting cabin, Lu Jiansheng lit a fire. These were all dry firewood in the house, and it burned brightly in a moment!

Back to the hunting lodge,
  Lu Jiansheng was ready to deal with this wild rabbit. He was already very skilled at skinning and handling it, and he was done quickly.

This is not a dog barking, but a roe deer.

Lu Jiansheng recognized it immediately.

Roe deer only make this call when courting or in danger. It is hard to imagine that the roe deer, which belongs to the Cervidae family and is often called a dwarf deer, makes this sound instead of a yo-yo sound.

Hearing that the sound was coming from the direction where he laid the trap, Lu Jiansheng couldn't help but feel happy. Could it be that he had caught a roe deer! Lu Jiansheng did not forget the traps he had laid. He had checked them one by one before and found nothing unusual.
  The robe is rather silly, and for most hunters, it is just a food delivery. The skins are not valuable, and state-run restaurants generally don’t charge them much. They usually catch them for their own consumption.

He picked up the knife, put on his shoes, and walked towards the trap. After a while, he looked around and couldn't help but feel happy.

Good guy, a little roe deer is running wildly around the place where he set up a trap, trying to break free from the wire on his head!

But the roe deer is neither a wild boar nor a bear. The roe deer is just a small and medium-sized herbivore, not that energetic, and this one is still a small roe deer! This struggle will only make the wire rope tighten around its neck, hastening the end of its life.

However, although the robe was cute, it was still flesh. When he reached the trap, he suddenly grabbed the roe deer's forked horns, and the beast struggled more and more fiercely.

Despite his small size, he was very strong. Lu Jiansheng was almost caught and picked accidentally.

It wasn't until it was exhausted from struggling that Lu Jiansheng took the opportunity to lift his foot and step over its back, holding it between his legs.

The knife passed through the artery in the neck, and then the man jumped aside and allowed the roe deer to roll crazily on the ground until it lost its breath.

He removed the wire sheath and set up the trap before carrying the roe deer back to the hunting cabin.

Then Lu Jiansheng took the robe to the spring and began to disembowel and peel it! I have to say the smell of this thing is choking! After disemboweling the roe deer, he threw the roe deer's intestines far away! After working on it for more than an hour, it’s finally done!
  Lu Jiansheng cuts the roe deer meat into pieces! Simply pickle it with salt, put it on a wooden stick, hang it on the fire, and let it smoke.

Smoking is an excellent way to preserve meat and can be used at any time.

Lu Jiansheng plans to store some meat in the wooden house, so that if he doesn't catch any prey, he doesn't have to worry about food!
  After it was done, Lu Jiansheng hung the smoked meat on the beams of the wooden house with wires and took the rest home.

The snow in the mountains never stops,
  It was getting dark quickly. After dealing with the two chipmunks caught in the wire trap, Jian Sheng came back from the mountain with a shotgun on his back.

The cold wind howled outside the window, blowing sticks, firewood piles, etc., making whining sounds. After eating, I washed my feet and the family gathered around the fire to warm up!
  Lu Jiansheng was lying on the bed in the middle of the night, still thinking about the harvest from the trap in the mountains.

Early the next morning, the snow finally stopped.

Lu Jiansheng didn't even bother to eat breakfast and hurriedly went to the mountains with a shotgun on his back.

Unexpectedly, I caught a lot of them!

"In addition to two pheasants, two chipmunks, there is also a flying dragon! The flying dragon is a good thing!"

Lu Jiansheng was extremely excited.
