Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

Chapter 106 Hunting (Subscribe)

The remaining food was eaten by the hunting dogs. Fang Wei put out the fire and poured water on it to ensure that it would not reignite.

Then he and Pan Lianhua continued on their journey.

The two held hands and smiled at each other from time to time. This was not just a trip for fun, it was simply a way to show off their love.

After getting to know each other over the past few years, Pan Lianhua has already fallen in love with her, and Fang Wei has also accepted her from the bottom of his heart.

Along the way, the two of them were almost stuck together, so naturally they couldn't travel fast.

By the time we arrived at the Sanqing Temple, it was almost dark.

"I was thinking something good would happen today, and it turns out two distinguished guests have arrived."

Taoist Sun seemed very enthusiastic. He immediately arranged tea and food and chatted with the two for a long time.

He has already planted the soybean seeds that Fang Wei brought last time. They seem to be growing well and will be ready for harvest soon.

Taoist Sun also asked about his senior brother's strange situation. When he heard that Guan Chongyang could eat two bowls of rice in one meal, he couldn't help but smile with relief.

"The old man asked me to tell you something. Please go down the mountain and see him when you have time. He said he is too old to walk such a long distance, so please don't be offended."

"Brother, what's the point of saying all this? Okay, I'll go see him after the rice is harvested in the summer."

Taoist Sun smiled and shook his head. His senior brother was good in every way except that he was a little casual in nature and would do whatever he wanted.

How long had they just met? And now he was calling me to go see him again. It seemed like my senior brother was really lonely.

Unfortunately, my senior brother is not a cultivator, and with his personality, he cannot stand the quiet life in the mountains.

Fang Wei also brought some third-generation rice seeds of [Nanguang No. 58] and [Nongken ] this time.

He then handed it over to Taoist Sun and went to rest with Pan Lianhua.

Pan Lianhua couldn't sleep, so she went to his room to chat, and they chatted until very late before going back to her room to sleep.

The next day.

Both of them got up very early, ate something and went for a walk in the bamboo forest on the back mountain.

The bamboo forest here is different from the bamboo forest in the village. Not only are the varieties of bamboo different, but the artistic conception they exude seems to be different as well.

The moment the sun rises, the entire bamboo forest is dyed golden.

The forest is full of colors and full of vitality. It is really beautiful.

When they returned to Sanqing Temple, Taoist Sun and his two disciples had already finished their morning lessons and started working in the fields.

Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua went back to the house to pack up and prepare to start from the back mountain and take a shortcut back.

This is the road that Taoist Sun mentioned when we were chatting last night. It is a difficult road to walk on, but it can shorten the distance by a quarter.

The two men were out for fun, and they both carried guns and had a few hunting dogs with them, so they were not worried about any wild beasts lurking in the mountains.

"You two came and left in a hurry. I don't have anything good to give you. I will just teach you a set of health-preserving exercises."

Taoist Sun stopped them and asked them to leave a day later.

In the afternoon, Taoist Sun taught the two of them a set of health-preserving exercises.

This reminded Fang Wei of the [Eight Vajra Kung Fu], which was also a Taoist practice. He had practiced it for a while in his previous life, but unfortunately he didn't persist.

Health-preserving exercises emphasize the combination of movement and stillness, and are coordinated with breathing techniques. There are many benefits to persisting in them.

"Thank you for the teachings, Taoist Priest!"

Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua expressed their gratitude, stayed for another night, and walked into the forest from the back mountain early the next morning.

When the two entered the forest, they were like tigers returning to the mountains and had a lot of fun.

Along the way, we encountered many hares and pheasants, but I don't know how many of them were unlucky. Anyway, the hunting dogs were all full.

Fang Wei left all the chances of shooting to Pan Lianhua. The girl was a very good shooter with steady hands, and she never let down at critical moments.

However, the two encountered a group of wild boars on the way, so Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua went around their territory.

There are a large number of wild boars in this group, and the key is that they are too far away from the mountain stronghold and the second team. How can we bring them back after killing them all?
Fang Wei was unwilling to take risks, so it was okay to be timid occasionally.

Of course, the wild boars didn't attack them, or they would have been dead. Facing rifles, as long as the two of them could coordinate well, a herd of wild boars would be easy to defeat!
"Third brother, I'll go back and tell my elder brothers and sisters that we'll get rid of these wild boars in a few days. Once we kill them, I'll give you some meat."

The lotus flower is not a white lotus. Since it has discovered so many wild boars' nests, how could it let them go?

She wanted to invite Fang Weiyi to go hunting wild boars, but when she thought about how he was the captain and was always busy, she changed her mind.

"It won't take two days. Let's go out together and kill this group of wild boars. Once we reach Feishui Pond, we'll split up and go back to call for help. See you tomorrow morning at 5 o'clock."

Fang Wei didn't feel comfortable sitting back and enjoying the fruits of others' labor, as this wasn't just his problem, so he planned to pull out the militiamen in the team to conduct some training.

Pan Lianhua thought this was fine and couldn't help but stick with Brother Fang for a while longer.

Fang Wei returned to the village and immediately called a meeting with Zheng Bao and others, without even having time to eat dinner.

"Captain, you know that the fighting capacity of our militia is really not good. Compared with the people in the Yao Village, we are not even close."

When Zheng Bao heard that they were going to hunt big wild boars, and a large group of them, he felt a little timid.

If the militia’s combat effectiveness was really that strong, how could they not have survived even a single wild boar when it came to our team and destroyed our crops last time?
They all ran away.

"It's precisely because your skills are not good enough that you need more training! Don't worry, I will go with you and will be at the front."

In order to dispel the other party's concerns, Fang Wei had to put himself forward.

When Zheng Bao heard this, the expression on his face relaxed.

Fang Wei was the best hunter in the team, with experience hunting wild boars alone. Last time, he, Fang Ping, Zheng Hu, and the others even hunted a whole litter of wild boars, and it was mostly thanks to him.

"Also, this time our second team is not acting alone. People from the Yao Village will also go with us."

"Then what else is there to say? I'll go notify them right away. How many people do we need to go?"

When Zheng Bao heard this, he immediately became nervous and stood up to call for help.

Fang Wei said that the more the better. Those with less experience can be on guard at the periphery, which can also serve as a training exercise.

To be honest, he was not just doing it for the sake of satisfying his appetite.

Now that the rice has been planted, the wild boars in the mountains will sooner or later become a nuisance. It would be better to take the initiative and kill as many as possible.

Wild boars cause great harm to agricultural production, so we will never show mercy when we encounter them.

The next day.

Led by Fang Wei, Fang Ping and Zheng Bao, the entire militia team went out, and even Zheng Hu, Deng Yuanen and others followed to join in the fun.

He didn't bring any hunting dogs, which would be of no help against a group of wild boars, and he might even risk his life.

The main function of a hunting dog is to search and guard, not to fight.

At 4:45 in the morning, a large group of people arrived at Feishuitan, but the people from the Yao village arrived even earlier.

"Third brother, you are here? Let's go." Pan Lianhua was eager to try. As a person who relied on the mountains and forests for survival, how could he be afraid of hunting?
Very excited, almost.

Fang Wei, Zheng Bao, and Fang Ping went to meet with the prince who led the team. The two sides discussed the tactics and then set off one after another.

Everyone already knew the location, and both sides divided their troops into two groups to encircle the enemy from the south and west.

This is also to avoid accidental injuries, so the outer guard personnel are guarding the east and north sides, but the distance must be kept far beyond the range of rifles.

Fang Wei and Zheng Bao were responsible for the frontal attack from the south, while Fang Ping and Zheng Hu were responsible for guarding the north and watching out for any fish that slipped through the net.

The west and east were handed over to Pan Lianhua and his men. At the appointed time, everyone would launch an attack at the same time.

Fang Wei's side is divided into three groups, a total of three groups.

Everyone hurried on their way in silence. When they arrived at the designated location, Fang Wei explained the tactics to everyone again.

The three groups will cover each other and attack alternately. They do not need to advance too fast and must ensure their own personal safety.

To be honest, he is not afraid of encountering tigers, leopards, riches or wolves, but he is afraid of encountering stupid teammates.

Fortunately, these people were obedient, and after repeated explanations, they memorized the tactics.

It's just hunting a few wild boars, this tactical arrangement should be enough.

"Wait a moment, there's still half an hour until the agreed time. I'll go ahead and scout the situation."

Fang Wei asked everyone to lie in ambush first, and he went into the jungle alone.

Fang Wei, who possesses the attributes of exploration and tracking, is like a fish in water in the mountains and forests. In order to be on the safe side, he even made a temporary designation for the woods in this area.

This area became a temporary [hunting zone], and he was the king of this area.

Time passed minute by minute, and less than twenty minutes later, Fang Wei ran back from the woods.

"The wild boars are all in their dens. I found 16 of them, which is quite a large group. I led a group in the front, and the remaining two groups were behind us, no more than 10 meters apart."

This is a real hunt, with many people and many guns, so we need good organizational skills to ensure that no mistakes are made.

Fang Weiyi was not worried about the Yao village at all. They were like professional hunters, so he just had to act according to the plan.

“5、4、3、2、1，进攻。”

At the appointed time, Fang Wei took the lead and rushed to the front with two militiamen.

When they got closer, there was some commotion among the wild boars.

Fang Wei ordered to open fire, and the people in the Yao village also had a tacit understanding, and gunshots were heard from the west and south almost at the same time.

The bullet streaked through the brush, and his first round found its mark.

A grown boar fell under his gun and never got up again.

The two militiamen beside him also opened fire, and the two combat teams on the flanks also began shooting.

At this time, the advantage of having more people was revealed. Although Zheng Bao and others were not very good at shooting, their firepower was sufficient, and several wild boars still fell down.

Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua began to advance forward.

For the opponent, at this distance he could basically kill the wild boar on sight, one shot at a time, and almost every shot would hit the target.

Zheng Bao and others also found their feeling and were much better than at the beginning.

Ten minutes later, both sides arrived at the wild boar's lair, but no wild boar could stand up.

Under the attack of human thermal weapons, wild boars are almost as vulnerable as rabbits and pheasants.

Zheng Bao felt a little embarrassed. He was so worried that he couldn't sleep. This was too easy, right? If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have shown his fear in front of the captain. It would have been embarrassing.

Gunshots were also heard from the north and east. Pan Lianhua and Fang Wei sent people to contact them and learned that the personnel on guard outside had also hunted several wild boars.

Now, not a single wild boar escaped, and the entire group of wild boars was wiped out.

Fang Wei had previously detected 16 wild boars, but after the final count, there were a total of 18 wild boars.

The second team had a very good relationship with the Yao village, so there was no need for much discussion. Each team got 9 wild boars, and then carried the spoils back home.

"Third brother, I'm going back. I'll come find you in a few days."

Pan Lianhua reluctantly followed the brothers and sisters back to the Yao village, and Fang Wei and everyone also returned to the village.

On the way, Fang Ping told his third brother that he had shot a wild boar alone.

"Go and call everyone to the threshing ground and distribute the meat immediately."

Zheng Bao and Fang Ping led people to process the wild boar meat. These two men were more skilled than butchers. With just one knife in hand, they could quickly cut a huge wild boar into neat pieces of clean meat.

Fang Wei's two hunting dogs were in for a treat, as they ate all the leftovers.

The leftovers are fed to the village dogs or taken to the composting site until they can no longer eat them.

It’s quite sad to say that the second team with more than 100 people could not find a few local dogs.

In the past few years, people could not even get enough to eat, so how could they have the energy to raise a dog?

[Harvested prey, points +780, total points: 22494 points.]

Fang Wei made a great contribution to this wild boar hunting trip into the mountains, and earned 780 points.

The nine pigs weighed a combined 9 kilograms (1480 jin) and each member received an average of 10 kilograms ( jin) of wild boar meat. The specific distribution plan, like the annual pig distribution, was based on a coefficient.

Everyone was beaming. Who said wild boar wasn't tasty? Everyone thought it was delicious.

In fact, wild boar meat is not delicious. Fang Wei went home and asked Tian Guihua to add more spices and simmer it slowly over low heat. It doesn’t matter if it is simmered for a few more hours.

The key is to make it flavorful and stewed until it is tender.

"Is it another wild boar that the captain discovered? No wonder he disappeared the past two days. It turns out he was looking for wild boars."

"Yes, the captain is not only capable, but also very lucky. We also benefit from his good fortune."

Every household ate wild boar meat, and when they talked about Fang Wei, they automatically put on a "filter" and said all kinds of good things.

Even when Fang Wei and the girl went out for fun, he didn't say it was for the benefit of everyone.

That's why being a production team leader isn't easy. If you can make the members feel that life has a future, everyone will respect you. If you make the members feel that there's no hope in following you, they'll pull you down in a matter of minutes.

Fang Wei understood the reason behind this, so he naturally wouldn't be elated.

"Third brother, your second brother-in-law got some rice seeds from somewhere. He said they were tribute rice. I put them away. See if you can use them later."

During the two days when Fang Wei and Pan Lianhua were out, Tian Bingyi came to visit.

He sent some homemade [firewood fish] to his family and also brought a few kilograms of rice seeds, saying they were top-quality tribute rice.

From ancient times to the present, there are countless kinds of rice labeled as "tribute rice", but it does not necessarily mean that it is a good thing just because it has these two words on it.

Moreover, some of the "tribute rice" that has been passed down to this day, although taste good, is actually not of much significance due to its extremely low production.
