Near the foot of the mountain, you can vaguely see several small open spaces that have been cleared like parking lots, and in one of them there is a modified off-road pickup truck parked.
Obviously, this is the regular hunting team under Li Ge.
In order to avoid conflict, they ran a distance further before stopping.
"Let's just stay in this area. Don't go to the mountain. We should be careful. If there are any large wild animals, we should run fast. There shouldn't be any problem!" Wang Chuan said.
There were large patches of bushes and thorns hiding small animals. As we walked along, we could occasionally see small figures passing by quickly, which made us envious.
After a brief discussion, it was decided that Wang Mu, the third son of the Wang family, and Tian Hao would be on guard first, observing the environment and paying attention to wild animals, while the others would act freely in groups.
Tian Hao climbed onto a large rock and stood high up to look out. Lin Xiaoman, not in a hurry to improve the food, was observing the local herbs around him, seemingly playing with them. If he could find some poison or something, that would be very useful.
While studying, Lin Xiaoman also paid attention to others. These small animals are really not that easy to catch.
The shrubs and thorns here are some tens of meters in diameter, while the smaller ones are two or three meters in diameter. Small animals often hide in the large bushes, and people cannot get in at all.
Setting fire is even more impossible. Looking at the withered and yellow plants, their roots and stems are actually full of water. Unless there is enough combustion aid, they cannot burn at all.
The so-called hunting is actually one or two people shouting and throwing big stones into the bushes, while the others stand guard outside. If they are lucky, they will scare out the small animals hiding in the bushes.
If a small animal escapes, pounce on it immediately.
With good positioning and quick eyes and hands, you can pounce on the target.
Unfortunately, it is obvious that the small animals here are all agile and much faster than humans, and there are not many of them. There are no small animals at all in many small bushes.
So after more than three hours, only the Wang family caught a pheasant-like bird. Then the three members of the Liu family showed the spirit of Yugong moving the mountains and cut down the bushes where the pheasant was hiding. Luckily, they found four eggs.
The two Zhou brothers gained nothing.
After standing guard for the whole morning, it was time to change shifts. This time it was the Zhou family and the Liu family's son.
Lin Xiaoman followed Tian Hao closely, playing the supporting role seriously. It was obvious that Tian Hao's reaction speed had improved and his movements had become more agile due to the practice.
So, after a few familiarization attempts, half an hour later, Tian Hao successfully caught a fat gray rabbit.
Another half hour passed, and Tian Hao successfully caught another pheasant...
Three hours later, seeing that the position of the star had dropped, Wang Chuan decided to go back as he would not be able to make it back before dark.
The Wang family got 2 pheasants, the Zhou family got 1 gray rabbit, and the Liu family got 4 eggs. Although Lin Xiaoman was just there to watch the whole time, Tian Hao was very good at catching 3 pheasants, 2 gray rabbits, and 3 big sand rats.
Because it is too conspicuous, you have to share some of the meat scraps with others after eating it, and if the harvest is too good, it will attract thieves.
So Tian Hao generously gave away three pheasants, one to each family, and everyone thanked him repeatedly.
They returned to the gathering place safely without encountering any accidents. After deducting the 20% that should be handed over and exchanging it for some daily necessities, the group returned to the shantytown and then went home.
There is a world of difference between fresh meat and dried meat.
Although they were still cooking soup, the aroma of the meat could be smelled by several households nearby. Knowing that they had gone to the wild today, returned safely, and successfully hunted prey, the surrounding people were jealous.
Even though the group hid their belongings when they came back, their pockets were bulging and anyone with a discerning eye could tell they had hidden a lot of things, so they had successfully attracted the attention of thieves.
Look, it was the day when the garbage ship arrived. When Lin Xiaoman and Tian Hao came back together, they found that the door of their house had been smashed and most of their things had been taken away.
The two of them had just stood at the door for a while when Wang Mu, the third son of the Wang family, came over. Wang Mu stayed at home to look after the house today, but there were obvious bruises on his face, obviously from a fight during the day.
"It was the Du group who did it..." Wang Mu narrated angrily.
People in the shantytowns are also divided into groups. Behind them there is a row of houses, which forms a large group.
More than a dozen families shared the surname Du, and it was said they were all from the same family, sticking together under the name. Wang Mu said it was ten teenagers from the Du family who did the job, and he was alone and couldn't handle them. Their remaining chicken was also stolen, and they lost a lot of other things, and he himself was hit several times.
"Bastards! I'm going to settle the score with them!" After hearing this, Tian Hao clenched his fists in anger, his face full of anger as if he was going to fight.
"Brother, don't be impulsive." Lin Xiaoman hurriedly grabbed him.
It is obvious that this was a premeditated crime committed by a group.
The Du clan was considered a large group in their area, numbering over a hundred, with at least 50 strong men. With Tian Hao's current strength, one against five was certainly no problem, but one against fifty? That would be the end of a group beating.
In this place, if you get robbed, you can only consider yourself unlucky or secretly find an opportunity to get it back. As long as no one is killed and there is no mass fight in this populated area, Brother Li and his group are too lazy to interfere.
Justice? None.
"Yes, Tian Hao, don't be impulsive. The Zhou family and the Liu family have also been robbed. Wait until everyone comes back and we will discuss it together." Wang Mu also persuaded.
After the others came back one after another, a group of people held a meeting.
