"Don't get up, I'll go out and take a look." Tang Can's voice sounded in the darkness, making people feel inexplicably at ease.
"Be careful and don't try to be stubborn." Qin Zijin warned worriedly.
Only rustling sounds were heard in the darkness, and then the door was opened. Qin Zijin knew that Tang Shen had gone out.
The room was very quiet, but Qin Zijin felt a little uneasy.
Wild wolves are still very lethal, especially when they are extremely hungry.
Tang Shen ruined their plans during the day, and they probably came to seek revenge.
She felt uneasy, but didn't dare to go out casually.
She knew that Tang Shen might still be able to protect himself. If she went out, he would be distracted from protecting her, which would be even more dangerous.
The moonlight outside was just right, and a group of skinny wild wolves came down from the mountains.
Judging from the number, there are much more than during the day, and they light up with green light in the night.
Tang Shen approached the door and looked out through the gap. Seeing the green wolf eyes that looked like will-o'-the-wisp, his heart couldn't help but hang in the air.
Fortunately, they had reinforced the walls during the day. Not only reinforced them, but also raised them. Now the walls of every household are at least one meter high. At this height, it is difficult for wolves to cross.
The walls surrounding Tang Can's two homes were two meters high, so it was no exaggeration to say they were unbreakable.
In the mountains, the leader wolf howled again and again, and the wild wolves below responded one after another.
The dogs in the village heard the sound and started barking too.
After a while, the villagers who had fallen asleep were awakened. They sat on their beds, staring at the door with their eyes open in horror, trembling.
Especially those who were bitten during the day were very scared and even a little crazy.
Tang Shen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the wolf walking past his door.
He turned his head and looked towards the mountain.
There was a commotion in the village, and it was not until the late night that things finally calmed down.
The wild wolves have all gone back to the mountains.
Not long after, the roosters crowed.
Tang Shen didn't sleep all night and stayed in the yard all night.
I breathed a sigh of relief only when the wolves had left. My legs were a little numb, and it took me a while to regain consciousness. I slowly walked towards the house.
Qin Zijin also got up at this time, opened the door and came out. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Tang Shen was safe and sound.
"Come in and warm up first. I'll make a fire." Qin Zijin helped Tang Shen inside. Tang Shen's body was covered with frost because he had been standing outside all night. He was very cold. When Qin Zijin's hand touched him, it was frozen.
She didn't say anything, helped the person in, then turned to the kitchen to get some firewood and lit a fire in the house.
Then he went to boil some hot water, washed Tang Shen's face and hands, and soaked his feet.
"I guess the wild wolves will come down again tonight and tomorrow night. I plan to set some traps at the foot of the mountain today. We have to scare them so that they dare not come to the village to cause trouble again." Tang Can looked at Qin Zijin running around for him, and the smile on his face never faded.
Qin Zijin stopped what he was doing and was silent for a moment before speaking: "You can't do this alone. Go talk to the village chief and ask everyone in the village to help. How much can you accomplish by yourself?"
"Okay." Tang Shen agreed.
Qin Zijin went to make breakfast, and after eating, Tang Shen felt a little better.
I had originally planned to go to the mountains today, but now it looks like my plan is ruined.
You can set up ground traps in the pond and collect them in the evening.
As for what you can catch, it depends on your luck.
"I'm going to set up a few traps and then go find the village chief. Don't run around at home, especially don't go up the mountain, understand?" Tang Shen reminded him with concern before leaving.
Qin Zijin nodded and watched Tang Shen leave.
Tang Shen has all kinds of tools at home.
The ground traps and shrimp cages were all made by Tang Shen when he had nothing to do. He had used them several times in the past, but didn't catch anything. Later, he threw them in the utility room and never took them out again.
Qin Zijin went over to take a look and saw a lot of strange tools, but he didn't know what they were used for.
She closed the door and planned to cook the bacon first.
I was busy all day yesterday, and the bacon is still being marinated in the barrel and hasn't been hung out to dry yet.
As soon as I took out the bucket, Miao Cuicui came over.
He looked terrified, his face pale. Looking at Qin Zijin, he patted his chest and said fearfully, "Thanks to Tang Shen for telling us yesterday that the wolves were coming down the mountain, we reinforced the house inside and out. Otherwise, something would have happened last night."
"No one should have had any accidents last night, right?" Qin Zijin nodded and asked again worriedly.
"That's not the case. Originally, a few families were unwilling to waste time doing this, but later the village chief gave the order and they all surrounded it. I guess nothing happened." Miao Cuicui shook her head.
Watching Qin Zijin take the meat out of the bucket, string it with a rope and hang it on the eaves, he asked, "What is this made of? It looks like bacon, but not quite."
"It's bacon, but this is the way it's made in my hometown. It's a little different from here, but it tastes good." Qin Zijin's hands were shaking as he held the bacon.
She made the bacon from Guangdong, which is different from the ones from other places. It not only needs soy sauce to color it, but also needs to add koji wine.
It is difficult to buy wine now, so Qin Zijin exchanged it from the system mall.
In addition to soy sauce, liquor, sugar, and salt, the soy sauce is also exchanged from the system. The soy sauce used is of relatively good quality. It has just been hung out and you can already smell the fragrance.
"It seems to taste better than the ones we have here. You are really amazing and can do everything. They used to say that you were a young lady from the city who couldn't do anything. I think they are blind." Miao Cuicui took a look and smelled the faint aroma of wine in the air, and felt a little hungry.
"It's true that I couldn't do anything in the past. They are not wrong. It's just that life forced me to learn to do only these things." Qin Zijin smiled and shook his head.
Miao Cuicui thought about the life of Qin Zijin and his family before, and sighed: "Everything is getting better now, and it will be even better in the future. Where is Tang Shen? Why haven't I seen him?"
"Go find the village chief. He said the wild wolves will probably come down the mountain for three days straight, and he wants to take the villagers to the foot of the mountain to dig some traps."
"Then I'll tell Daniu and ask him to help as well." Miao Cuicui said this and hurried back to find Zhao Daniu.
Qin Zijin continued to string the bacon together one by one and hung them under the eaves.
It is cold these days, but the north wind is strong and the sunshine is nice.
I'm afraid it will snow in a few days, and it will be difficult to make bacon then.
Just after hanging it up, Tang Shen came back.
"I'm going out soon and may not be able to come back for lunch. You..." Tang Shen hurried in and said.
"Don't worry, I'll bring you food later. You can go about your business. Don't worry about home." Qin Zijin interrupted Tang Shen, wiped his hands, and prepared to braise large intestines for lunch today.
