Return to the era, take over and become a winner in life

Chapter 84: The Antelope, Known as the Killer of Qinling Mountains (First Order)
Xu Ye found that his understanding of Jiang Ruyue was still shallow and he needed to go deeper.

But it’s not convenient to go deeper at the moment. After all, the two of them still have a lot of work to do and they also need to build this shed.

After burying the pillars, Xu Ye put the main beam in place.

Because he had previously made a simple mortise and tenon joint with a hunting knife, it could be firmly fixed in place as long as it was clicked into place, which was very convenient.

The two people worked until it was almost dark before the entire framework was completed.

Some wooden sticks as thick as arms were laid on top and tied with straw ropes made by Jiang Ruyue.

The last step is to lay the thatch.

Zhang Sanbao and his friends have already brought back several bundles of straw, and Jiang Ruyue has used the straw to make a lot of ropes.

The next step is to get the thatch.

As it was getting dark, Xu Ye cut some leopard meat to roast.

Eat more meat so that you can have enough nutrition to grow and gain more weight.

Especially Jiang Ruyue and Jiang Ruoan, Xu Ye hopes they can become plump soon.

That way, when you squat down you can outline your beautiful curves, how wonderful.

After roasting for a while, the aroma of the meat filled the air, and everyone lost interest in working and just stared at the roast meat and drooled.

The hunting dogs were no exception, they all squatted on the side and looked at the barbecue in Xu Ye's hand.

They ate a lot at noon.

"Okay, let's eat first, and then we can make thatch sheets in the evening."

Xu Ye did not take them hunting at night unless some prey came to them.

After Xu Ye called out, everyone sat around the campfire.

Now it is getting dark and the earth is about to be completely invaded by darkness.

"How about it, are you two scared?" Xu Ye glanced at Zhang Ming and Zhang Xuefeng.

"Don't be afraid. There's nothing to be afraid of when following Brother Ye and the others." Zhang Ming said calmly.

"It's quite interesting. I've never had the experience of spending the night in the mountains." Zhang Xuefeng said with a smile, looking relaxed.

"Brother Ye, will there be any wild beasts coming to our house at night?" Zhang Ming asked curiously.

Xu Ye took a bite of leopard meat, chewed it for a few times, and then said, "I hope there is such a sensible beast, so that we don't have to worry."

"Haha, that's great." Zhang Xuefeng couldn't help but laugh out loud.

But he knew that there were probably no wild beasts that were so sensible.

Really, he and his father would not often return empty-handed when they went into the mountains.

After a hearty meal, they immediately started making thatched roofs.

There was no rush to cover the roof because the sky was full of stars and there was not even a cloud, so it would definitely not rain.

But the shed needs thatched roofs to block the wind. The mountain wind is biting, and without a fence, it will be very cold even if you make a fire.

While making thatch sheets, smoke the meat.

If you don't smoke it, the meat will start to go bad.

In order to smoke the meat, they also made a rack, and then cut the meat into strips and hung them on the rack.

More people means better efficiency.

By ten o'clock at night, the entire shed was surrounded by thatch.

There is a fire pit in the middle of the hut, where you can burn charcoal to keep warm at night.

Otherwise, the nights in the mountains are too cold and people will wake up from the cold.

The main reason today is that time is limited, otherwise Xu Ye would have planned to make a few beds out of wood.

The ground was damp, and even if you spread a raincoat on the ground first and then laid dry straw on it, it would still be cold.

The hounds are lying outside the shed, and they will give the first warning if anything happens.

Jiang Ruyue was lying in the corner, with Xu Ye on the outside.

In order to avoid suspicion, Zhang Sanbao and his companions lay on the other side of the fire pit.

Everyone was so tired that they fell asleep soon after lying down.

We still need to look for prey tomorrow, so we must get enough sleep. When Xu Ye woke up the next morning, Jiang Ruyue had already gotten up and continued to smoke the meat.

They stopped fumigating when we went to bed last night because if they continued the smoke would drift into the shed and make it impossible for everyone to sleep.

The three brothers of the Zhang family slept soundly and were still having sweet dreams.

Fortunately, no one snored last night, probably because everyone was relatively thin.

Relatively speaking, fat people are more likely to snore because their airways are narrowed by the fat.

"Come and have some hot tea. I made some tea." Jiang Ruyue handed Xu Ye her kettle.

There is a tea garden in the village, and every year the villagers can get some unsold coarse tea.

This time when going into the mountains, Jiang Ruyue specially brought some with her.

Xu Ye took it and drank two sips, then walked towards the col.

It is just getting light now, which is the time when animals are active. Maybe some animals will come to the valley to drink water.

When they reached the place where they could see the water source in the valley, Xu Ye's eyes lit up.

There really were animals coming to drink the water, and they were a kind of animals that Xu Ye had never seen before.

Takin!

Xu Ye knew that there were such animals in the Qinling Mountains, but he didn't expect to encounter them here.

It also has a nickname, the Qinling Killer!

He turned back immediately and woke up Zhang Sanbao and the others.

Then he took the Hanyang-made one.

When Zhang Sanbao and his friends heard that there was prey, they immediately became excited.

He quickly picked up the gun and followed Xu Ye.

Xu Ye found a place to lie down and began to aim at the takin in the distance.

The distance was still far, and if they walked towards the col, the antelope would definitely discover them.

This herbivore has a strong sense of smell and hearing, and is extremely alert.

Otherwise, they would have been eaten by carnivores long ago.

Zhang Sanbao placed his hopes on Xu Ye. As long as Xu Ye could hit the target, they could track the antelope.

This is also the purpose of Xu Ye calling them here. After all, the range of the shotgun is limited, and it is impossible to hit the antelope more than a hundred meters away.

So, now Zhang Sanbao is even more eager for Xu Ye to buy a new gun.

If Xu Ye gets a new gun, he might have to replace the Hanyang gun he has, and he can buy it and use it for a year or two.

This time he brought Zhang Ming and Zhang Xuefeng with him, and he actually had some ideas of his own.

He felt that it was impossible for Xu Ye to go into the mountains every day. When Xu Ye did not go into the mountains, he could take Zhang Ming and Zhang Xuefeng into the mountains to try his luck.

Xu Ye was quite willing to teach him. He felt that after learning from Xu Ye for a period of time, his marksmanship would be greatly improved.

So he stared at Xu Ye, paying attention to his every move.

He was not sure he could hit the target from such a long distance, but Xu Ye was sure he could.

Xu Ye adjusted his breathing and then put his finger on the trigger.

"boom!"

A tongue of fire spurted out of the muzzle, propelling the bullet at high speed towards the antelope on the opposite side.

The gunshots echoed quickly in the valley, startling many birds.

Xu Ye's eyes were still fixed on the takin. If they could hit it, they could go down the mountain today.

After all, a takin is not small, and it is impossible to keep all that meat in the mountains and smoke it into bacon. Not only will the workload be huge, but the income will also be reduced.

Smoked meat is not as easy to sell as fresh meat, and the profit is not as much as fresh meat.

"Did you hit it?" Jiang Ruyue asked hurriedly after hearing the gunshot, ready to untie the leopard's rope at any time.
