Faced with these jokes and teasing, Lin Xiuqin would be very shy, but Chen Wang responded calmly and politely.
After walking around the village, it was only seven o'clock when I got home.
I slept for so long in the afternoon and I didn’t feel sleepy at all.
Chen Wang is starting to miss computer and mobile games again. Whenever he plays games, he always feels like time passes very quickly.
When you have nothing to do at this time, time will feel particularly long.
Lin Xiuqin didn't seem to have this feeling. She sat on the bed, knitting a sweater with a faint smile on her face.
The little girl pestered Chen Wang and asked him to tell her a story.
After Chen Wang told two short fables, he really couldn't remember them for the time being, and then began to think about finding something to do to pass the time.
"By the way, I'll go get some bamboo shoots. They're great for making soup."
Suddenly, Chen Wang stood up excitedly and said.
The bamboo trevally is actually a nocturnal animal and only comes out at dusk and night to look for food.
Therefore, it is actually easier to catch them at night than during the day.
The meat of this thing is delicious!
Besides, I'm going to town tomorrow. If I catch a lot, I can try to sell them.
No matter what, it's better than sitting here doing nothing and being pestered by a little girl to tell stories.
"Ah? Brother, you're going to go so late!"
The little girl pouted and looked unhappy.
There is no shortage of meat at home recently, and she wants to listen to stories more.
"You've been eating too much meat lately, right? Starting tomorrow you'll be eating vegetables, not meat."
Chen Wang said unhappily.
The little girl curled her lips and said nothing.
"Wife, where is our flashlight? Find it for me!"
Chen Wang said to Lin Xiuqin.
Lin Xiuqin nodded, took out a flashlight from the drawer and handed it to him, gestured to him, telling him to be careful and come back early.
"Don't worry, we're just going to the bamboo forest, not into the mountains. It's not dangerous. I'm leaving now and will go find Brother Dazhuang."
After saying that, Chen Wang left the room, took the shovel from home and left in a hurry.
…
…
When we arrived at Chen Dazhuang's house, he had just finished dinner and was well rested after sleeping for the whole afternoon.
When Chen Dazhuang heard Chen Wang say that he wanted to catch bamboo shoots, he also became interested and agreed to join in without saying a word.
He brought a slingshot and a dagger, and found a fishing net from somewhere.
Of course, you have to bring a sack as well.
After everything was ready, the two said goodbye to Chen Jianjun and headed to the bamboo forest with great interest.
It was actually a bit cold at night, but the two of them were in high spirits and didn't feel it at all.
They soon arrived at the bamboo forest and immediately began searching.
"Here's the slingshot. You need to aim more accurately. Give me the flashlight."
Chen Dazhuang said this and exchanged with him.
Chen Wang had no objection and held a shovel in one hand and a slingshot in the other.
After a while, the two found a bamboo cave.
Chen Wang followed the same steps as last time and set a trap at the entrance of the cave. Then he and Chen Dazhuang continued searching.
"Can this trap of yours really catch Zhuliuzi?"
Chen Dazhuang asked doubtfully.
"Didn't I send two to you and Master last time? They were all caught this way."
"All right!"
“Ka-ka…”
Suddenly, there was a sound of an animal gnawing on something ahead.
The two men were shocked, and Chen Dazhuang immediately shone the flashlight over there.
Then, the two saw a fat bamboo trout eating something under the bamboo.
"Quick, hit it!"
Chen Dazhuang urged excitedly.
Without his reminder, Chen Wang had already stuffed the bullets into the leather bag and pulled the two rubber bands straight.
"Bang!!"
He suddenly let go of his hand, and the bullet shot out, but failed to hit the bamboo rat. Instead, it hit the bamboo above, making a loud noise.
The bamboo rat was frightened and jumped around a few times, disappearing under the light in the blink of an eye.
"Um... sorry, I missed it."
Chen Wang smiled awkwardly.
"Go and have a look, the nest might be there!"
Hunting with a slingshot is much more difficult than with a hunting rifle. Chen Dazhuang didn't blame him and just walked over quickly.
Chen Wang quickly followed, and the two of them searched carefully around where the bamboo rat disappeared, and they actually found a bamboo rat's nest.
I was too lazy to set a trap this time, so I just picked up a shovel and started digging.
As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. In nature, many animals will leave a way out when they build their nests.
Bamboo rats are the master builders among them. Their burrows are composed of a mound, a burrow entrance, a feeding duct, a shelter, a nest and a toilet.
And there may be more than one way to avoid it.
Sensing some movement inside, Chen Wang immediately dug with a shovel at the back of the cave, in the opposite direction of the entrance, which might be a place of refuge.
The fat bamboo rat's head could no longer be hidden.
Chen Dazhuang was also a ruthless man. He simply turned the scoop net in his hand upside down and poked it in with the head of the wooden stick.
The bamboo rat let out a scream and jumped out of the hole.
Chen Wang was quick-witted and quick-handed. He picked up the shovel and knocked the bamboo rat unconscious with it.
