After the wolves left, Chen Wang and his companion returned to the cave.
It was almost 11 o'clock at night.
"Awang, why don't we just go back this time? If we go out and the wolves come back and steal our home, we'll suffer a great loss."
Chen Dazhuang made a suggestion.
After all, this black bear is very valuable. If they go out to search for other prey, it is impossible for them to take more than 200 kilograms of black bear meat with them.
"No need to go back. Put the valuable bear skin, bear gall, bear paws, bear nose, and bear ling cap into my medicine basket."
Chen Wang made a suggestion.
“Yes!”
Chen Dazhuang nodded suddenly.
Compared with bear skin, bear gall, bear paws, etc., bear meat is not very valuable. Even if the wolves really come back and destroy it, the loss will not be too great.
Chen Wang had finally managed to get to the mountains, and he was so lucky that he actually didn't want to go back so early.
The two of them quickly packed up and put all the valuables into Chen Wang's medicine basket.
In addition, the two did not extinguish the fire, but added more firewood to make it burn longer.
Like many animals, wolves are afraid of fire.
After doing this, the two men left the cave with their hunting dogs and continued searching for prey.
Occasionally, the sound of wolves howling could be heard, not too far away from them.
The two of them didn't feel scared about this.
With a hunting rifle in hand and a few loyal hunting dogs protecting their master, there is actually no lack of a sense of security.
“Gu-gu-gu-gu”
There was the sound of birds nearby.
Chen Wang asked Chen Dazhuang to take out a flashlight from the medicine basket and shine it on the surrounding trees. At the same time, he took his slingshot, took out a glass bead and wrapped it in a leather bag.
"Awang!"
Chen Dazhuang shouted in a low voice.
Chen Wang looked in the direction of the flashlight and saw a turtledove standing on the branch pecking at its own feathers.
I haven't caught this thing for a while. Sometimes I heard the cry but ignored it. After all, there was not much meat and it was not worth much money.
I caught a few today and made some soup to give my wife some nourishment.
Yan Yulan was also pregnant, and Chen Dazhuang also wanted this thing.
"Bang!!!"
The glass bead hit the turtledove accurately and it fell from the tree.
"good!!!"
Chen Dazhuang cheered excitedly.
The turtledove was too small and his accuracy was not good enough, so it was difficult to hit it.
Several hunting dogs immediately jumped over. Da Hu jumped high, bit the turtledove, and ran back to present his treasure to Chen Wang, his tail shaking like a propeller.
Chen Wang bent down, took the turtledove and handed it to Chen Dazhuang, and at the same time took out a piece of dried meat and fed it to Dahu.
There seemed to be a lot of birds roosting in this woods at night. Chen Dazhuang was responsible for searching and locking them with a flashlight, while Chen Wang was firing with a slingshot.
When they walked out of the woods, the two men had shot three turtledoves and four or five other birds.
In the next two or three hours, neither of them saw any good prey, but the hunting dogs caught a few pheasants and rabbits.
After the early morning hours, I became more and more sleepy.
"It looks like our hunting luck is almost over today, Awang, why don't we go back to the cave first!"
Chen Dazhuang yawned loudly and made a suggestion.
In this season, it will be light at around 5 o'clock in the morning, and they can sleep for two or three hours in the cave.
"Then go back!"
Chen Wang nodded.
So the two of them changed direction and returned to the cave.
…
…
After returning to the cave, they found no signs of wolf invasion and they both breathed a sigh of relief.
The fire had gone out, leaving only red-hot coals.
Chen Wang added some more dead leaves and firewood into the fire and made it burn again.
Both of them were very tired, so they just lay down on the flat area next to the fire and fell asleep.
When Chen Wang woke up, he found that it was already past six in the morning.
He quickly sat up and rubbed his aching head, woke up the little monkey sleeping next to him, gave it a note and a banana, and told it to go back to the village and call its master.
There weren't too many prey this time, but it would be difficult for him and Chen Dazhuang alone.
There were more than 200 kilograms of black bear meat alone, and there were dozens of kilograms of pheasants, rabbits, turtledoves and other things in the sacks.
Considering the medicine basket that Chen Wang was carrying, he had to call someone to help.
After the little monkey left, Chen Wang sat by the fire, hugged his legs, rested his head on his knees and took a nap.
Time passes quickly in a half-asleep and half-awake state.
"Woof!"
Chen Wang was awakened by the barking of dogs.
When I opened my eyes, I found that several dogs were already awake, alertly looking in the direction I came from.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Dazhuang also woke up and asked while yawning.
"It should be the master who has arrived."
Chen Wang replied.
"Hmm? When did you let Jixiang go?"
"You sleep like a pig. It's already past seven o'clock."
"Huh? It's past seven? You overslept, you overslept."
Chen Dazhuang patted his forehead.
It must be daylight outside, but it is still pitch dark in the cave.
The two heard familiar footsteps getting closer.
The master has a problem with one of his legs, so the sound of his footsteps is a little special.
"dad!"
Chen Dazhuang shouted.
"It's me."
Chen Jianjun's steady voice came.
Chen Wang took the flashlight and turned it on.
Soon, the master came in.
"What good stuff did you get?"
Chen Jianjun asked with a smile.
Chen Wang shifted the flashlight and shone it on the black bear meat.
"Tsk tsk, another bear. Your luck is incredible. What color is the bear's gall?"
