Chen Wang didn't waste any words. After taking the slingshot, he took out a glass bead from his pocket and wrapped it in a leather bag.
He asked the little girl for the glass beads.
Many children in the village like to play marbles. The little girl is a girl and she is really good at it. She often makes other children in the village cry.
When the little girl learned that he was going to use glass beads to hunt, she generously grabbed a handful from the drawer in her room and gave it to him, saying that he could ask her for more after he had used them up.
Originally, some small stones or yellow mud could be kneaded into a ball and dried to be used as projectiles, but seeing that the little girl had so many marbles, Chen Wang asked her to provide the ammunition.
This way, the little girl also had some sense of participation in hunting.
“Bang!”
The bullet hit the badger very accurately.
Chen Dazhuang immediately walked over quickly and picked up the prey on the ground.
After bleeding, the prey was thrown into the urea sack that they carried with them.
There were already two flying squirrels inside. Chen Wang shot them with a slingshot when the little monkey was digging out the squirrel's nest.
The wild hog badger weighs only about 20 to 30 kilograms. After removing the fur and internal organs, there are only a few kilograms of meat left.
It was already a great fortune to be able to find so many purple Ganoderma lucidum, but the two were not satisfied with the hunting gains and continued to search for prey.
Research data shows that 70% of animals are actually accustomed to being active at night, which allows them to hunt better and avoid natural enemies.
Human activities have also further increased the proportion of animals active at night.
In winter, the drop in temperature also means that there are fewer prey in the forest.
At noon, they found a place to eat the lunch they brought with them. After a short rest, they searched again for nearly two hours. Apart from shooting a cute hare, they didn't see any hair of other animals.
"Brother Zhuang, how about we stop here today?"
Chen Wang tentatively proposed.
In his opinion, hunting is a gift from God.
Their luck today might have been exhausted by those purple Ganoderma lucidum.
This was actually not very fair to Chen Dazhuang. He was thinking about giving him some of the money after selling the purple Ganoderma lucidum. If he really didn't want it, he would just buy more things in the town as a gift to his master.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Dazhuang nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back early today. This badger meat is delicious. I'll stew it with some side dishes and stir-fry the hare meat. Let's have a drink with my dad."
"Sure, it just so happened that my brother-in-law couldn't drink much yesterday, so he didn't enjoy his drink to the fullest!"
"Hey hey... let's go, let's go back."
After that, the two returned home in high spirits.
Nowadays, almost all the men in the village who are old enough like to drink.
Many boys have tasted wine with their elders when they were only in their early teens.
With some cold dishes and a pot of wine, a few guys can sit together and brag all day long.
If there could be an extra pot of meat and vegetables, that would be even better. Someone would have to drink until he fell down before they would stop.
…
…
As the two entered the village and were about to reach Chen Dazhuang's house, they ran into someone unexpected.
It was none other than Chen Wang’s cousin Chen Feng.
He was seen with a hunting rifle slung across his back, talking and laughing with another young man as they walked towards the mountains.
Seeing this scene, Chen Wang and Chen Dazhuang looked at each other in surprise.
"Awang, isn't that your cousin? What is he doing? The sun is about to set. Is he going to hunt in the mountains at this time?"
"Who knows? It's none of our business. Leave them alone and let's go."
"Um!"
At this time, Chen Feng and the young man also saw the two people.
"Hey, Afeng, isn't this your awesome cousin who even killed a bear? How come he has nothing today? It looks like he didn't get much!"
The young man had a playful smile on his face and spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"Fuck, do you deserve a beating?"
Chen Dazhuang had a hot temper and was about to go up and beat someone up with his fists, but was stopped by Chen Wang.
The young man shrank his neck in fear. Seeing that he was stopped, he immediately said stubbornly, "What are you doing? You won't let me speak? Why are you being so arrogant?"
"Shut up!"
Chen Wang frowned and shouted coldly.
The young man subconsciously wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Chen Feng.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. It's getting late. Let's go into the mountains and find a wild boar or something and bring one back."
"That's right, they are not capable at all. It all depends on us. When we kill a wild boar and come back, we will let the villagers know who is the most capable."
After saying that, the two of them walked past Chen Wang and the other man and headed towards the mountains.
"Bah!"
Chen Dazhuang couldn't help but spit on the ground, and said with disdain: "These two guys want to hunt wild boars? I think they are awesome if they can kill a pheasant!"
"Well, it's none of our business what we get, let's go back!"
"Um!"
The two first arrived at Chen Dazhuang's house.
Seeing that the two had only caught badgers and hares today, Chen Jianjun did not feel that the harvest was small. Instead, he laughed, thinking that this was the normal rhythm of hunting.
The previous few times really surprised him, and he even wondered if there were more prey in the mountains now.
However, Chen Jianjun soon stopped laughing and was once again shocked speechless.
"Is this... Lingzhi?"
"Yes, Purple Ganoderma Lucidum. Jixiang helped us find it."
Chen Wang nodded with a smile.
"Good God!"
Chen Jianjun raised his hands to cover his face, looked at the little monkey sitting on his shoulder, and said with emotion: "The name Jixiang is really right, what a fortune this is!"
