After resting for a while, the two continued searching in the mountains for two hours but found nothing.
There was no choice but to turn back.
On the way they passed a hare forest and were pleasantly surprised by their harvest.
I haven't been here for a few days, and more than half of the traps I set have been hit.
Without saying a word, the two men quickly picked up the hares and put them into the sack.
In addition to the hare, a living weasel was also found. In front of the weasel was the corpse of an untrapped hare.
Not far away, a trap was destroyed.
It looks like this weasel wanted to take advantage of the situation, but ended up getting tricked himself.
"What's going on? Is this going to be released?"
Chen Dazhuang pointed at the living weasel on the ground, looked at Chen Wang and asked.
Since ancient times, the weasel, also known as Wong Tai Sin, has been endowed with a mysterious color and is considered a spiritual animal, especially in rural areas, where many elderly people believe in this.
In some places, people even worship weasels as tablets to ensure safety.
In fact, weasels are also of high value. Their fur can be made into high-end clothing, the hair on their tails can be used to make wolf-hair brushes, and their meat and internal organs have medicinal value.
"Let him go!"
Chen Wang nodded.
He originally didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but now his soul has traveled back to decades ago.
Furthermore, even if you don’t believe in these things, you should still respect traditional culture.
Not to mention that weasels are considered beneficial animals. They are experts at catching mice and can control the number of mice to a certain extent.
Chen Dazhuang had also given up on his idea. After hearing what he said, he quickly squatted down and untied the noose.
Although Huang Daxian was still alive, he had lost half his life. After struggling to stand up from the ground, he looked at Chen Wang and the other man, and then ran away.
The two continued to pick up rabbits and soon discovered something unusual again.
There were only some uneaten hare remains at several destroyed traps, and there were animal footprints on the ground around them.
Chen Wang had never seen such footprints before, so he couldn't tell what kind of animal it belonged to. He could only tell that it was not big.
"It must have been done by a fox, and there was more than one."
Chen Dazhuang expressed his guess.
"fox?"
Chen Wang was stunned.
He had been hunting for nearly two months and had yet to see a fox.
"They probably eat at night. Foxes are mostly nocturnal animals. They hide in caves to rest during the day and come out to look for food at night."
Chen Dazhuang said again.
Chen Wang nodded suddenly.
They go into the mountains to hunt during the day, so it is naturally difficult for them to encounter these animals that are active at night and hide during the day.
"Damn it, they haven't been here for a few days and there are weasels and foxes. It seems that the good place of the Hare Forest has been exposed!"
Chen Dazhuang scratched his head and said.
"Yeah, if we keep setting traps, this fox will probably come again at night, like a free buffet."
"Free buffet?"
"It means you don't have to pay and you can eat as much as you want."
"Is there such a good thing? Where can I get such a free buffet?"
Chen Dazhuang asked curiously.
"It's nowhere!"
Chen Wang rolled his eyes in amusement.
"Then you said this, and I said how could such a good thing happen."
Chen Dazhuang curled his lips.
"Okay, hurry up and pack up and go back."
"Um!"
The two put the remaining rabbits into bags, set the traps again, and prepared to go home.
The sack contained three pheasants, a dozen hares and a roe deer. Although they were not worth much, they were quite heavy when added up.
The two took turns carrying the sacks and finally walked out of the mountains.
After walking for a while, Chen Wang suddenly saw someone riding a bicycle coming towards him.
When I looked closely, I found that it was my master.
"Brother Zhuang, it seems that the master is here to pick us up."
"Ah? My dad?"
Chen Dazhuang was stunned for a moment, looked up, and said in surprise: "It's really my dad."
Chen Jianjun also noticed them, sped up, and soon arrived in front of the two people.
"Master, why are you here?"
Chen Wang asked curiously.
Chen Jianjun smiled and said, "I saw that you guys hadn't returned yet so late, so I knew that you must have made a lot of gains today, so I rode over here. Come, tie the bag to the back seat."
"You came just in time. We were so tired from carrying all the things."
Chen Dazhuang happily put the sack on the back seat.
Chen Wang stepped forward to help and tied the sack to the back seat with a rope.
"Dad, let me ride the bike!"
Chen Dazhuang said with a smile.
"You wish. I rode the bike here, so of course I have to ride it back. You two can keep going!"
Chen Jianjun refused mercilessly, turned the bicycle around, sat on it and rode away.
The two looked at each other in amusement and continued walking on their own legs.
Fortunately, without the 100-80 kilogram sack, walking is much easier.
They first arrived at the master's house, and the two divided today's harvest.
The roe deer was divided into two halves, half for each person, and the hare and pheasant were also divided into half for each person.
Chen Wang put his harvest back into the sack, said goodbye, picked it up and left.
It had been many days since we had such a big harvest. When we got home, my wife and the little girl were very excited to see so many prey.
Chen Wang handed his things to his wife to pack, and then went back to his room, where he sat down to drink tea and rest for a while.
Then he thought of something and called the little girl over.
"Brother, what are you calling me for?"
The little girl brought Dahei and Ruyi into the room and asked with a smile.
