Chapter 83 Fighting the "Wild Boar"
A big fat pig weighs over a hundred pounds. If Song Liyun were to remove the bones and divide the meat at Baolinju, she would definitely not be able to hide it from Song Zhenping, so she thought of going up the mountain to hunt.
When Song Zhenping ate the cut and marinated meat, he couldn't tell whether it was a domestic pig or a wild boar.
As soon as she returned to Baolinju, Song Liyun picked up a hoe and a hatchet, saying that she wanted to take Han Ming and Heijin hunting.
She had said this before, and Song Zhenping did not object.
He had said before that he wanted to go up the mountain to pick acorns, but when he saw the acorns piled up like a small mountain in the cellar, he stopped mentioning it.
Now that Song Liyun was going hunting, he naturally wanted to go up the mountain to help.
As soon as he said that, Song Liyun refused: Xiao An can't go up the mountain, and someone needs to look after the house.
Now that he has Han Ming as his servant, there is no need for him to go up the mountain with his disabled legs.
Han Ming has been trying to survive in Suijin Town for these years, and his understanding of the surrounding mountains and forests is no worse than that of Heijin.
With him and Hei Jin around, no accidents will happen.
Heijin didn't want to separate from Xiaoan, but his small arms were no match for Song Liyun's thighs, so he had to obey after being threatened by her.
He didn't even want to walk when he went out. He squatted on the back of his servant Han Ming, rolling his eyes and secretly glaring at Song Liyun.
From Baolinju to the Gold Rush River, Song Liyun first jumped onto the single-plank bridge built several times before and came to the sand pile in the river.
Pointing to a row of wooden sticks by the water, he said to Han Ming, "Collect the soaked acorns immediately and let them dry so they can be collected when we come back."
At first, Song Liyun boiled and soaked acorns at home, but there were so many acorns that changing the water every day was a chore, so she simply put them in sacks and threw them into the river.
This place is rarely visited and most people cannot find the acorns under the water.
Just soak it in water for ten days and wait for the bitterness to dissipate before taking it back out.
Now the river is covered with thin ice, and we can only wait for the ice to thaw before collecting the last batch of acorns.
In just one day, Han Ming was already impressed by the extraordinary skills of the "great immortal", and he obeyed everything Song Liyun said.
With his work, ten bags of acorns were quickly pulled out of the water and set to dry.
After handling the matter here, Song Liyun hurried up the mountain. Even if it was just pretending to hunt, she had to make it look good.
The grass in the mountains and forests has been covered by a thin layer of snow, and it is easier to walk on the exposed ground than before.
The place where Song Liyun had picked up acorns before had even cleared away the leaves on the ground, so of course she couldn't go there again.
Under Heijin's leadership, they soon found another acorn forest.
There are acorns here, and wild animals come here to feed.
The snow surface was messy and there were small paths everywhere, trampled by wild boars and sheep.
"Han Ming, you and Hei Jin go over there and look for the pheasant's nest. I'll go this way."
Song Liyun looked around and soon spotted a large rock that was sheltered from the wind.
All I need to do is get Han Ming out of the way and I can slaughter the pork there myself.
Han Ming had no doubts about it, and since he had black gold on his neck, he had no choice but to obey.
Heijin roared and clapped his hands, urging his servant Han Ming to quickly find a pheasant's nest so that he could bring it back for Xiao An to play with.
After the monkey and the man walked away, Song Liyun walked to the big rock, took out a broom and swept away the dust and snow on the rock, then took out the big fat pig.
According to the convention, the skin is peeled off and the belly is removed. The sharp knife moves between the bones and meat, and soon it becomes large bones and strips of meat, which are piled aside.
Two months have passed and the meat has not deteriorated at all.
Fortunately, it is winter now, so we don’t have to worry about the meat going bad if we leave it outside.
Heijin took Han Ming wandering around in the mountains and forests. The two experienced people followed the trails and actually found a nest of pheasants and encountered a wild deer.
Without Song Liyun watching here, Heijin was lazy and didn't want to chase the deer.
I just robbed the chicken coop, caught two pheasants, and picked up a few eggs.
Heijin plucked the bright feathers from the pheasant and laughed strangely. He had already given Xiao An a gift.
Han Ming's face was pale, his expression was flustered, and his fingers were trembling.
In the forest he had just passed, he found a hidden path.
Normally the lush vegetation cannot be seen, but in a few days the thick snow will cover it up.
Only then did the thin, diluted snow cover the grass, revealing the once-trampled path.
The road was very hidden. If he hadn't been forced by Hei Jin to look for pheasants, he would definitely not have gone to such a remote place.
Five years ago, the Di Lu people suddenly appeared in Suijin Town, and everyone knew that they entered the country through the Huangsha River.
But no one knew where those bandits, who were even more brutal than the Di Lu people, came from.
The Di Lu people robbed money, food, and people.
Slaves are wealth.
Therefore, the Di Lu people did not kill people casually.
As long as the Wu Dynasty people were brought back to the grassland, a strong male slave could be exchanged for two horses, three cows, or a flock of sheep.
Beautiful young women who can bear children are more popular than men in the trading market.
Bandits are different. They are not interested in people. In order to hide their whereabouts and avoid being caught by the government, bandits generally do not leave anyone alive.
Five years have passed, the bandits have long since disappeared, but this road still exists.
Han Ming stared at the deep and dense forest, as if he could see again the bandits running around with strange cries, and the Di Lu people with their scimitars raised high.
He thought of the young widow again.
When she was caught, she looked in his direction without crying or making a fuss, but with a blank look in her eyes.
The young widow saw herself being stabbed and knew that she had fallen into the ditch.
She couldn't come over, and he couldn't save her.
No one knew that because of guilt and hatred, Han Ming had been pretending to be stupid and staying in Suijin Town for all these years.
After plucking the chicken feathers, Heijin picked a few shriveled jujubes from the tree and jumped back.
Han Ming also withdrew his thoughts.
Now there is a garrison in Suijin Town, the tragedy will not happen again, and no more bandits will come.
When Han Ming and Hei Jin returned to the place where they broke up, Song Liyun had already packed the pork, pork bones, and unwashed pig offal into a sack.
Seeing the bloody rock and the bag of pork, the disturbed Han Ming was stunned.
"Boss, where did you get this pork?"
Han Ming was picking up the strips of meat. There was no pig skin or head, so he didn't know what kind of pig it was.
Since it was hunted in the mountains, it must be a wild boar, but I think it looks a bit fat.
Song Liyun pointed at the stone covered in blood and flesh, not caring about his surprise: "I picked it up here!"
"Pick up... pick up the meat!" Han Ming's eyes widened.
Is there something wrong with my ears? Can anyone find fresh meat in this desolate mountain?
Can it? Is there?
Oh! I forgot, this woman is not human! She is a demon!
Han Ming was instantly shocked by his own thoughts and hurried to look at Hei Jin. Hei Jin was the demon.
But at this moment, what he saw was a little cutie holding dried dates, circling around Song Liyun to please her, and just short of wagging its tail.
Having one more person has both advantages and disadvantages. Song Liyun's space is no longer convenient to use casually.
This time they only took away pork, and the soaked xiangzi had to be thrown into the sand pile in the river.
