Chapter 288: Hunting in the Mountains (2 chapters combined into one)



Passing by the place where I used to live, I don’t know who lives here now. Su Qingxue doesn’t live here, so I didn’t pay much attention to it.

But there is no difference inside from when I left. The two sheds I built are still there. It seems that the people sitting here are reluctant to tear them down. After all, they are still easy to store things.

There was no shortage of space for growing vegetables, and each educated youth had two acres of land, so they stayed there.

However, she heard the sound of chickens crowing inside. They were much more diligent than herself. Someone must have raised chickens inside, so at least they had enough food for their own family.

After going up the mountain, I occasionally saw fresh wild vegetables and I would pinch the tender tips on the top and keep a little.

At this time of year, most wild vegetables are old, and you are lucky if you can find a few tender tips.

Occasionally, when Su Qingxue saw herbs she recognized, she would remember that she seemed to be planning to dig them and sell them for money.

But I was always busy taking care of the children and forgot about this matter.

It’s also because you have money in your pocket. If your pocket is empty and you are so poor, you will definitely not forget it.

But that won’t work today. Today’s goal is to hunt more prey, so forget about the medicinal herbs!

It has to be dried before it can be sold for a few cents. I feel like it would be better to hunt a wild boar to make money with this time.

However, some of the medicinal herbs that are used on a daily basis can be stored.

So if Su Qingxue saw some medicinal herbs that could be used for common colds and fevers, she would put them into the space.

The most common thing on the mountain is the mugwort that is about to dry up.

When I made my own moxa sticks to repel mosquitoes, the leaves were fresh and tender. Now they are old, but it seems that the medicinal effect should be the best.

My two sons occasionally have mosquito bites on their bodies, and they don’t know where the bites came from. If mugwort can be made into mugwort soap, it should be very useful for bathing.

The body always smells of mugwort soap, which should have the effect of repelling mosquitoes even if children are milling around.

Thinking of this, he took an axe and chopped a large bundle of wood and put it into the space, and he would make it when he returned.

It took about ten minutes to finish, and Su Qingxue was not going to delay any further.

Since we are hunting today, let's focus on hunting.

Walk into the deep mountains and forests.

Occasionally, when I see a beehive on the way, I will put it into the space without any hesitation.

The last time I brought back a lot of honey was in winter. It has been more than a year now. Although there is still some in the space, there is not much left at home. It is a good time to bring back some more now.

I should also send more mail to my parents-in-law, so that I don’t have to receive good things from them every month, but I don’t have many good things to give back, which I feel a little embarrassed about.

After walking for about two hours and collecting three particularly large beehives, we finally arrived at the deep mountains.

Start looking for wild boars.

It’s not far from the village, so it’s really hard to encounter prey. It may be because there are a lot of hunters, so the number of times I encounter prey is much less than when I first went up the mountain.

But now that we have entered the deep mountains, we can occasionally see a pheasant flapping its wings and flying past us.

If you see a fat one, just use your wood ability to tie up the pheasant. If it is too thin, just pretend you didn't see it.

Along the way, I caught several pheasants and rabbits. Occasionally, I would see particularly beautiful birds that looked like pheasants. I felt that they were probably pheasants as well, but I just didn't recognize the species.

Forget it, who knows if it is a protected animal in later generations?

I feel a little bit reluctant. After all, I have been educated since childhood. Let's just forget about those who deserve punishment!

You have no shortage of pheasants to eat, so why bother touching ones you don't know?

But if Su Qingxue encounters other prey that interests her, such as bears, leopards, deer, etc., she might still hesitate.

The first two types are now being condemned by everyone and are harmful to this era. If they can be fought, no one should have any objections.

The latter is purely because the meat is quite tender and there is a lot of it at this time, so it is normal to taste it.

However, as for those birds that look like pheasants that have never been seen in later generations, and no one knows whether they have become extinct in later generations, it was decided to let them go.

We searched for another hour over mountains and hills. There were dense jungles everywhere around us, and we could occasionally hear sporadic sounds coming from the side.

It must be something I didn’t see wandering around me, and the first thought that came to my mind was a snake.

I chopped a stick and started knocking it as I walked. After a while, I found a cave in front of me. There was also a hole near the mountain wall. The whole cave had a bad smell.

As soon as I smelled this smell, I guessed that there must be a wild boar here.

I have been looking for the wild boar for several hours and finally saw it. I definitely can't let it go.

He cut a very long branch and went directly to the entrance of the cave. Listening to the snoring sound of the wild boar, he threw two big pumpkins directly at the entrance of the cave.

Crush the two big pumpkins completely, and wait until the smell spreads inside. The wild boar inside will surely not be able to resist the temptation and will run out. At that time, just hit it with a branch, and with just a thought, you can put the wild boar into the space.

I don't know if it was because I was sleeping too soundly, but after a while there was no movement, so I quickly threw a stone in.
