Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 1225 His Heart Is Truly Wicked

By the faint light of the lighter, Wang An's eyes widened instantly as he looked at the table leg.

This seemingly dirty and broken table is actually made of rosewood!
Immediately afterwards, Wang An moved the lighter up and discovered that the tabletop, which was the place where Sun Nian had just been lying and crouching, was also made of huanghuali wood.

Looking at this huanghuali table, which held considerable historical significance, Wang An couldn't help but smile slightly.

If there's a chance in the future, Wang An definitely wants to have another battle with Sun Nian at this table. Just thinking about it is interesting.

The more Wang An looked at the table, the more delighted he became. He never expected that this seemingly silly thing would lead to such an unexpected discovery.

It can't be said that it was an accidental discovery, because Wang An had been here when he was a child in his previous life. However, at that time, Wang An did not recognize the various precious woods, and he did not pay any attention to the table and chairs in the cave.

Actually, it wasn't just Wang An who didn't take it seriously; everyone who had been here before didn't take it seriously either.

People who live in forest areas, who would care about wood? You know, there are countless kinds of timber in the area.

There are three major hardwoods: ash, yellow pine, and mandarin orange; rare tree species suitable for making tea canisters, such as lilac shrub; as well as red pine, white pine, larch, spruce, birch, linden, and so on. What kind of wood can't you find?

It's just an old table; it wouldn't attract any attention at all.

Naturally, no one would carry an old table out of a cave in the ditch and then carry it to their own home; that would be incredibly stupid.
Whether others are stupid or not is their business, but Wang An is determined to be that stupid person.

Then, Wang An looked at the two chairs next to the table and found that they were also made of huanghuali wood. Unfortunately, one of the chairs had two broken legs.

If Wang An remembered correctly, the chair leg was broken by Li Biao when he was a child playing here with Li Biao and others in his previous life.

To be honest, Li Biao is a really wicked person! He's been wicked since he was a child!

That was a perfectly good chair, and they had to break its legs. Li Biao, that damn bastard.

After clicking his tongue, Wang An put the chair leg back on the chair, feeling that the chair leg was beyond repair.

The key issue is that the crossbeams connecting the chair legs are also broken, and repairing them will cost a lot of money.

With a regretful expression, Wang An lowered the chair leg and cursed again:
"That damn idiot Li Biao."

After assessing the size and weight of the table, Wang An decided to bring a sled to haul it away when he had time.

It must be said that these early tables were heavy and clumsy; even Wang An, with his strength, found it difficult to lift them.

Fortunately, although the table is valuable, to those who don't know it, it's just an ordinary wooden table, and no one will touch it here. So Wang An doesn't need to worry at all that the table and chairs will be taken away.

So Wang An slung his gun over his shoulder, picked up the sack containing the squirrels and sparrows, and turned to leave the wonderful cave.

When Wang An walked out of the ditch, he saw Sun Nian waving to him from a distance before walking back into the pine forest. Wang An smiled and followed him into the forest.

Sun Nian is an absolutely wonderful woman.

After taking only a few steps, Wang An spotted a furtive rabbit emerging from a snowdrift. The instant he saw it, Wang An immediately crouched down, lowered the air spring to open the chamber and loaded a lead bullet. Only then did he bring the gun to his face and slowly rise. Rabbits are extremely wary creatures; had Wang An not been wearing thick boots that made his footsteps very quiet, the rabbit would never have come out of its burrow.

Wang An squatted there with his gun raised, waiting for quite a while. The furtive rabbit probably sensed that there was no danger outside, and then it finally crawled out of the hole completely.

Unfortunately, it only ventured a few meters before a lead bullet flew towards it and hit it on the head.

Immediately afterwards, a figure resembling a leopard rushed towards it.

As it was spinning in circles, a gun butt smashed down on its head, and it immediately lost consciousness.
Wang An picked up the dead rabbit and said to it with a smile:

"You've gotten quite fat, damn it, not bad, not bad at all, hahaha."

After casually stuffing the rabbit into a sack, Wang An continued walking into the pine forest.

After killing three more squirrels and several sparrows in the pine forest, Wang An finally finished a box of lead bullets. He looked at his watch and realized it was almost noon, so he started walking back.

Elsewhere, where Wang An couldn't see, Wu Dong, Zhang Shuya, and others were doing almost the same thing.

Of course, Huang Zhong was the same, because Huang Zhong also had a watch, but Huang Zhong's watch was something Wang An had taken from Qiao Xiaohu.

Not only does Qiao Xiaohu have a watch, but even Huang Li at home has one.

Huang Zhong's watch was a gift from Wang An, while Huang Li's watch was a gift from Mu Xueqing.

Wang An received a total of 5 digital watches and 5 mechanical watches from Qiao Xiaohu. He gave one digital watch to each of his two younger sisters, one digital watch to Wang An's cousin, Wang Li's younger sister Wang Xiaorong, and one digital watch to Xiao Lai.

Wang An gave the remaining digital watch to his sister-in-law, Mu Xueting.

The main reason is that digital watches are a bit childish for adults to wear, and they're not worth much money. Even if they break or get lost, it won't be a big deal. So, in Wang An's opinion, they're perfect for children.

As for the five mechanical watches, besides giving one to each of Huang Li and her brother, Wang Yi wore one to school, and Wang An gave one to Shen Wei. The last one is currently at home, waiting for its destined owner.

However, the watch, which Wang An considered to be poorly made, was treasured by Shen Wei and Huang Li, who would take it off and put it in their pockets while working, for fear of damaging it or getting it wet.

Soon, everyone reunited at the place where they had parted ways.

As soon as they met, Wu Dong and Wang Shuai and the others began comparing their respective gains.

Wu Dong said happily:

"The prey in this pine forest is plentiful! In such a short time, I've caught 12 greyhounds, 5 sparrows, 2 half-cats, and 1 jumping cat. Hahahaha!"

As he spoke, Wu Dong grabbed the bottom of the sack and dumped a pile of small animal carcasses from inside onto the snow.

　Thank you "Brother Hei Niu" for the donation, thank you so much!
