Ghost Blowing Lantern II

In fact, the scientific name of the human bear is "罴". It is different from the bear. The fur of "罴" is all yellow and white. Not only does it have a long neck, but its hind limbs are also taller than the ordinary black blind man. It is so powerful that it can pull up an old tree as thick as a person. It can be pulled up when it gets up. When it encounters people, it will stand up and chase after people. Its posture and facial features are similar to those of humans. It is very powerful and can snatch cattle and horses for food. Therefore, it is called "man-bear". Hunters in the mountains do not dare to do so. Provoking a man-bear, let alone trying to hunt a bear, is not impossible to catch a man-bear, but the risk is extremely high. If one step goes wrong, it will cost your life, because the man-bear is a beast that is fat and strong. , has rough skin and thick flesh. Even if the bullet pierces the chest and abdomen, and blood flows out of the intestines, it can still dig out the soil and rosin to plug the wound, and then fight to injure people fatally. Therefore, even if it has superb marksmanship and sharp firearms, it will never be taken out.

There is a saying: "When the strong are outwitted, the weak are captured alive." Since ancient times, there have been many legends about hunters hunting man-bears, most of them outsmarting them. One of the most widely circulated stories is that the man-bear likes to use the tree holes of thousand-year-old trees as burrows, and the air in the empty tree holes is The heat fumigates, the ice and snow melt, and the man-bear sits in it when he is full. When the hunters find the bear cave, they throw pieces of wood from the tree hole. The man-bear is stupid. When he sees a piece of wood falling, he will reach out to catch it and sit on it. Under the buttocks, as more and more wooden blocks were thrown, the man-bear would pick them up and sit on them higher and higher. When the position where the man-bear sat was parallel to the entrance of the tree hole, the hunters saw the opportunity and used the mountain-breaking ax to strike hard. Cut off his head, or stab him to death with a spear from the gap in the ancient tree.

There used to be an experienced hunter in the village. When he encountered a human bear crossing a river in the mountains, he lurked and took a peek. Crossing the river was a huge female bear with two little human bears. The female bear first took one. He carried the cub on his head and crossed the river. After swimming ashore, he was afraid that the little man-bear would run around, so he used a big stone to hold down the cub, and then fell back to pick up the other cub. The lurking hunter took this opportunity to remove the cub trapped by the stone. The suppressed little man-bear was captured and taken away. The mother-bear was so furious that she grabbed the legs of another cub and tore it in half on the other side of the river. This shows how fierce and stupid her nature is.

We have heard about these legends since we entered the mountain, but legends are legends after all. If we really act on them, they may not be effective. Moreover, the humans and bears on Tuanshanzi have fixed habits. They will never go down the mountain and cross the river to the forest farm. They were found nearby, but only in the deep mountains and dense forests. We discussed several methods, but none of them seemed to work. When he was anxious, Yan Zi patted the big vat containing yellow rice noodles and sticky bean buns and said, "I'll tell you how to knock the mountain old man to cure this old man." Some bean bags, it turns out he wanted to use sticky bean bags to catch bears. This method has not been used for many years, and I don’t know if it still works.”

Fatty and I were at a loss. After Yanzi explained it clearly to us, we all thought that using sticky bucket bags to hunt killer bears was a good method. However, although it was feasible, it was a very old and dangerous method after all. Finally, we finally I decided to take a chance. When I was putting on a yellow leather jacket at night, I heard the roar of a bear in Tuanshanzi. This saved me a lot of trouble and I was able to roughly determine the direction of the bear cave. It was a good job to catch bears and extract their gallbladders. It's definitely exciting enough, and the gallbladder can cure the disease of the old man's granddaughter. Two bear paws and one bear meat can be taken to the supply and marketing cooperative, which can pay for the work points of me and the fat man for more than half a year. At that time, we only earned five work points a day, which was equivalent to about RMB. It was only 1.5 cents. After working so hard for several months, I couldn't even afford a ticket to go home to visit my relatives. No matter how I considered it, it was definitely worth the risk.

Fatty and I, a group of educated youths who join the queue in the deep mountains and old forests, our daily life can be summarized as follows: "Looking up at the wood, looking down at the stone, gnawing on the cold kangtou, and thinking about the hot kangtou." We are eager to find something new and exciting to do. , this time I had an excuse to go hunting for bears in the mountains. I was so excited that I couldn't sleep. It was almost dawn anyway, so I simply rested in the house for a while.

As soon as it got light, we brought a bag of bean buns made from the leftover yellow rice flour that the old man from Knocking Mountain used to make. We also found a few birch sleeves, which are hollowed-out log tubes in sections, plus a handful of raft wood. Long-handled axes, these are all necessary tools for hunting man and bear. In comparison, a shotgun seems a bit redundant. However, in order to beware of other ferocious beasts in Tuanshanzi, the shotgun and hunting fork still cannot be left behind.

Until dawn, Huang Pizi didn't make any noise again, but he locked "Huang Fairy" in the cabin and maybe let it escape. So the fat man found a wooden cage that the raft carpenters once used to hold squirrels, and put "Huang Fairy" in it. "Huang Xiangu" was tied up with wires, Muggles were gagged, and yellow wax was poured into the anus. She was put in a cage and carried behind her back. After cutting the bear's paws, she took out the "gallbladder" and took it to the cooperative for settlement and exchanged it for good. Eat and drink well.

It didn't snow all night, but the snow lingered on the treetops on the ground. When the morning sun shone, the mountains and the mountains below were covered in silver. Man-Bear is most fond of eating sticky bean buns. Since we brought many sticky bean buns, we didn't need to Just like last night, they were worried about bumping into a bear in the forest. After crossing the river, the three of them still walked to the "Huangpizi Tomb" to look for the bear cave on the mountain.

Climbing rocks and crossing ditches along the way, the woods became denser as we walked, gradually covering up the sun. After a while, the sky turned gray, and it looked like it was going to snow soon. Swallows are born with hot hearts, so since the east If she can cure diseases and save people, what else is there to say? That's fine. But after all, she grew up in the mountains and has always known how powerful humans and bears are. Seeing that Fatty and I didn't care, she couldn't help but asked me strangely if I wasn't afraid of humans and bears. ? I took the opportunity to brag, what's so scary about humans and bears? I heard that the US imperialists like to use giant bears to describe Soviet revisionism. Are we afraid of Soviet revisionism? Those damn bastards from Su Xiu are so determined to kill me that they want to renovate us too. From my point of view, I can’t let him succeed. There are so many of us, so I am determined to follow him. Let's see who can get off in the end. I heard that the Soviet revisionists eat butter bread every day, but what about the working people? I can't even chew black bread. How can I not fix this? In order to liberate the suffering people all over the world from the dire straits, we must use more yellow skins, dig more bear gallbladders, and contribute our strength to support the world revolution.

The fat man heard that I was blowing on the swallows in front of him, so he took the opportunity to ridicule me. He said to the swallows: "Don't listen to his nonsense. Yesterday, I got a yellow leather trap, and he didn't know his last name. He even asked me to support him." The height of the world revolution has risen. Let me tell you, Swallow. The great revolutionary teacher Comrade Lenin once taught us that some grandchildren unknowingly pulled up the flag as a quilt, covering themselves and still fooling others. Swallow, you know Who among us is that person?"

I was about to retort, but at this time we had already reached the foot of a towering tree. This old tree is probably no less than a thousand years old. There was a big hole, and bursts of black gas came out of it. The "Huang Fairy" in the wooden cage also became extremely restless and agitated at this time, as if she had been greatly frightened. I thought this hole could fit a big cow. Yes, it is most likely a bear cave. When we were putting on yellow leather jackets last night, we heard the roar of a human bear, which seemed to come from here. The three of us immediately stopped and braced ourselves to hunt bears. But when we stopped and took a closer look, we saw that the gaps between the rocks and trees were filled with thick and fat matsutake mushrooms, and there were all kinds of strange flowers and exotic flowers all over the place. The fruit looks very strange, and there is no scratchy smell like a bear cave. If it is not a bear cave, what kind of cave is under the tree cave?
