Chapter 34 Carry it home
At this time, Gao Mingcheng was about five or six meters away from the yellow muntjac. To a certain extent, the two were in a straight line, which made it convenient for Gao Mingcheng to attack with stones.
Gao Mingcheng measured the distance between the two sides with his eyes, and he was quite sure about this distance.
Ever since he got the gold foil, he would meditate every night and his physical fitness had greatly improved. Now, he was much stronger. He could make a pheasant or a hare faint by hitting them on the head with a stone.
Although the yellow muntjac is large in size, Gao Mingcheng also wants to give it a try.
He calmly held a stone between his fingers, took aim, and shot it towards the muntjac's head. To be precise, he shot it towards the muntjac's right eye.
With a "bang", a stone as big as a baby's fist hit the yellow muntjac's eyes accurately. The yellow muntjac was frightened and immediately made a very loud sound similar to a dog's barking.
The yellow muntjac cried out and tried to escape, but after being hit on the head, not only were its eyes injured and bleeding, but its head also hurt a lot. When it stood up, it staggered and was not as flexible as before.
At this time, the second stone came and hit the other intact eye of the yellow muntjac. After both eyes were injured at the same time, the yellow muntjac wailed and struggled to escape, but it could not tell the direction and turned around in a circle on the spot.
After throwing two stones, Gao Mingcheng appeared from his hiding place. He quickly ran to the yellow muntjac and punched it on the head. After one punch, the yellow muntjac's wailing gradually weakened, and blood flowed from its eyes, nose and mouth.
The power of this punch was so strong that it directly killed the yellow muntjac!
Gao Mingcheng felt the state of swinging his fist and couldn't help but feel ecstatic.
His physical fitness has improved!
Gao Mingcheng bent down and lifted the yellow muntjac, lifting it up and down. The yellow muntjac was fat, weighing about 50 kilograms. However, after returning home, removing the hair, internal organs, head and claws, it would be good if he could have 20 kilograms of good meat to eat.
The yellow muntjac is a deer-like animal. Its blood and flesh are very nutritious, just like those of deer. For Gao Mingcheng, this is the best meat for replenishing qi and blood.
Therefore, even if the yellow muntjac could be sold for a good price, Gao Mingcheng did not plan to sell it, but planned to keep it for himself to eat slowly.
If he eats as much as he wants now, he can eat two kilograms of meat in one meal. If he eats three meals a day, that would be six kilograms!
Of course, eating six kilograms of meat a day is just Gao Mingcheng's idea, because he now lives in his grandmother's house, and his grandmother will never let him eat six kilograms of meat a day!
"Oh, I must have my own home!" Gao Mingcheng thought to himself, considering saving money by selling honey and game, then buying an old house to live in, and rebuilding a new house when he has more money.
In their previous life, starting from 1993, people in their village began to build houses with bricks.
Yes, it’s about making bricks, not buying bricks!
Their village had the skill of making bricks, but life was hard before, so few people made bricks to build houses. But in 1993, most people in the village had a decent life and had extra money to build houses.
At that time, there were several brick kilns in their village. The large ones could burn 10,000 bricks each, while the smaller ones could only burn a few thousand bricks.
During the years of brick-making, the hills near their village were bare everywhere and looked ugly.
Because making bricks requires a lot of firewood, the low hills near the village were almost all cut down. By then, there were no pheasants or rabbits in the mountains. If you wanted to get pheasants or rabbits, you had to go deep into the mountains.
Gao Mingcheng carried the yellow muntjac on his shoulders and ran wildly down the mountain while thinking about something. His speed was so fast that it could rival that of a leopard.
The glow in the west gradually dissipated, leaving only a red glow.
The village at the foot of the mountain was more lively than during the day. The men who were working outside came back one after another, and the elementary school children played together in the fields.
Smoke rises from the kitchens of every household, filling the air with the aroma of food.
At this time, from time to time, shouting sounds could be heard, mostly calling the children playing outside to go home for dinner. In this age when communication depended on shouting, loud shouting could be heard from time to time.
Gao Mingcheng likes this kind of life atmosphere very much, but he doesn't want to be seen carrying the yellow muntjac, and he doesn't want to chat with others about how he got the yellow muntjac.
So he avoided people all the way and took some effort to finally return to his grandmother's home.
As soon as I entered the yard, I closed the gate to block any possible view from outside.
His actions attracted Gao Zhuang's attention. Gao Zhuang leaned over to look and immediately saw the yellow muntjac carried on Gao Mingcheng's shoulders.
Gao Zhuang also knew the yellow muntjac. Someone in his village had hunted one before, and the whole village went to watch the fun.
"Brother Mingcheng!" Gao Zhuang shouted excitedly, but fortunately he was also smart enough to suppress his anger and not say the rest of the words.
However, he walked uncontrollably towards Gao Mingcheng, and said excitedly in a low voice: "Where did you get such a big muntjac? This muntjac must be an adult!"
Gao Mingcheng threw the yellow muntjac on the ground and did not rush to answer Gao Zhuang's words. Instead, he said, "Go get the kerosene lamp and the knife! We have to deal with it now!"
The weather is too hot and there is no refrigerator to store the meat, so it must be processed as quickly as possible to prevent the meat from spoiling.
"Hey!" Gao Zhuang responded excitedly, and generously brought two kerosene lamps and lit them up.
As the sky gradually darkened, kerosene lamps lit up the small area on the left and right.
Soon, Gao Zhuang brought over another kitchen knife. Fortunately, his family had two kitchen knives, so it didn't hinder grandma from cutting vegetables and cooking.
Gao Mingcheng sat on a low stool and began to deal with the yellow muntjac.
The method is similar to that of processing a rabbit, where you first skin it, then cut it open and take out the internal organs.
The heart, liver, and lungs are easy to clean and can be directly cleaned and cooked and eaten. However, the intestines, stomach, etc. are much more troublesome.
Gao Zhuang couldn't help when skinning the fish, but after the belly was cut open, he helped to clean up the fish.
At this time, Grandma Xi also came out of the kitchen. Seeing the two people dealing with the yellow muntjac under the kerosene lamp, she said, "Zhuangzhuang, go buy a light bulb tomorrow. The light bulb in our house has been broken for a long time."
Gao Zhuang also felt that the light from the kerosene lamp was not bright enough. After hearing what his grandmother said, he immediately agreed.
Their house had installed electric lights when the electrical wires were pulled, but they rarely used them, and after the light bulb broke, they never bought a new one.
The only time Gao Zhuang uses electricity in the house is when he listens to the radio.
Grandma Xi was willing to buy the light bulb, definitely to make it easier for Gao Mingcheng to do things. After hearing this, Gao Mingcheng felt warm in his heart.
