16 The Hunting Party Returns

The villagers have been picking mountain products for 6 days in a row, and they have almost finished picking in several nearby mountains. However, the hunting team that went into the mountains to hunt has not returned yet. In the past, when going into the mountains to hunt, it was common to take ten or eight days to come back.

There are some things. Grandma Du and Ma Du don't think much of it, but Ya'er has been feeling restless these past two days and is a little worried about Father Du and the others.

The sky has been a bit gloomy since the morning. An old man who knows how to watch the weather said that it is likely to rain heavily tomorrow, so the villagers did not go up the mountain again that day. But the hunting team in the village has not returned yet, and the rainy day is still here.

It's a very dangerous thing in the mountains. Now the villagers are beginning to worry about the hunting team. The whole day, Ma Du and Grandma Du, who rarely have any free time, are restless.

In the afternoon, Grandma Du and Ma Du were absentmindedly cleaning the mountain grapes and preparing to make some wine, while they were mumbling about why Daddy Du and the others hadn't come back yet. Ya'er was playing with Maomao next to them, listening to their chatter, and feeling worried for them.

At this moment, I heard my brother calling outside the yard, "Grandma, mother, the hunting team is back, the hunting team is back!" I shouted to my grandma and Du Ma in the yard, and ran to the village while shouting.

Ya'er's family lived in the innermost part of the village. Every time the villagers went into the mountains, they had to pass by Ya'er's house. The two brothers saw that Grandma and Du Ma looked worried. After lunch, they

There's a sentry at the door.

After Ya'er heard this, she quickly ran out and saw a hunting team of more than 20 people returning home with a full load. Everyone looked tired, but they were all smiling. The two heads behind them weighed about three to four hundred kilograms.

There were wild boars, several roe deer, and the last one turned out to be a blind bear weighing six to seven hundred pounds, carried by four young men. Before the hunting team could carry the prey to the brigade headquarters, a group of children who had already received the letter were already following behind them.

Now, I am waiting for a while to share the meat and go home for my parents to prepare delicious food. Of course Ya'er will not miss this excitement and follows behind. Although Ya'er saw Ya'er in the zoo in the previous life

Wild boar and brown bear, but I have never eaten their meat.

It is reported that bear meat is fatter, fragrant but not greasy, tastes sweet and warm, and has the effect of replenishing deficiency and damage, strengthening muscles and bones. Bear paws can nourish qi and blood, expel wind and dampness, strengthen the spleen and stomach, and regenerate muscles and bones. It can cure weak spleen and stomach and wind-cold.

It is a valuable tonic food for damp paralysis and various deficiencies. Bear bile has high medicinal value and can clear away heat and detoxify, improve eyesight, and relieve spasms. It is mainly suitable for treating convulsions, epilepsy, and convulsions caused by heat in children.

, jaundice. Wild boar meat is tender, rich in game flavor, and rich in various amino acids and crude fiber. Wild boar meat also has the effect of treating weakness, weight loss, blood in the stool, and hemorrhoid bleeding. Roe deer meat is pure and lean, and there is no fat on the whole body. The meat is nutritious.

Rich, tender and delicious, it can be called the king of lean meat. Paozi meat also has the functions of warming the spleen and stomach, strengthening the heart and lungs, diuresis, aphrodisiac and prolonging life. I think of the records of wild boar meat, bear paws and paozi meat in medical books.

, Ya'er's mouth is about to drool. In the 21st century, it is difficult for rich and powerful people to have the opportunity to eat these, let alone ordinary people.[

By the time the hunting team carried the prey to the yard in front of the brigade headquarters, almost everyone in the village had arrived. The villagers were surprised to see that they had hunted back a blind bear this time. The blind bear was very weak.

With its rough skin and thick flesh, it has almost no rivals in the mountains. It has not been hunted in the village for more than ten years. It usually hunts wild boars, roe deer, wild rabbits, pheasants and the like.

The village chief saw that the people had almost arrived, and then announced the distribution method of the prey. Bear bile, bear skin, wild boar skin, etc. will be sold to the county's Chinese herbal medicine purchase station, which is the only place in the county where medicinal materials are purchased. The money sold is considered

The collective income will be distributed to the villagers according to work at the end of the year. After the wild boar, bear meat, and robe meat are killed, they will be divided equally according to the head. As for the pig offal, pig offal, bear paws, etc., because there are too few, they will be allocated to this hunting in the mountains.

Villagers, because going into the mountains is more difficult and dangerous. The villagers have no objection to this distribution method, and it is distributed like this almost every year.

After determining the distribution plan, Boss Guo took the butcher knife handed over by his wife and began to process the prey. He started with two wild boars, first removed the pig heads, then peeled off the skin on the four hooves, and started with the four pig legs.

After skinning, a complete wild boar skin was peeled off in a short time. Four wild boar teeth about ten centimeters long in the mouths of the two wild boars were also pulled out by Mr. Guo. The children who got the wild boar teeth were very proud.

It is said that pendants made of wild boar teeth can ward off evil spirits. Because Boss Guo likes Ya'er very much, Ya'er also got one. The two greedy brothers kept bowing to Ya'er to please her, shouting "good sister, good sister", thinking

I want to get it from my sister to show off to my friends.

"Sister, sister, can you please give us this? This is for boys to play, girls cannot play with it. If you give it to us, we will take you out to play every day. Otherwise, we will not take you out to play.", two

Brother coaxed.

"Humph, I won't give it to you two. When I get back, I will ask grandpa to tie me up with a rope and hang it around my neck. If you don't take me out to play, I will tell your grandparents and let grandpa teach you a lesson.", Ya.

Ya'er was not afraid of the threats from his brothers at all, and the two brothers got a big look from Ya'er.

When it came time to deal with the black blind man, a problem arose. Boss Guo's butcher's knife seemed to be quite blunt, and he couldn't cut the bear's paw. Boss Guo had no choice but to borrow a dagger from Father Du. Everyone was also very surprised.

, You must know that Boss Guo’s butcher knife is very sharp. When you were dealing with the wild boar just now, wasn’t it very easy? Why did you borrow a dagger from Du Jianguo? Wait until you see Boss Guo holding the dagger and stabbing the blind man’s abdomen with ease.

Cut, from head to toe, there was a neat cut mark on the bear skin. In a short time, a complete bear skin was cut off. The cuts were all neat and there was no gap at all. Only then did everyone know this

The dagger is powerful.

"Du Jianguo's dagger is very sharp and easier to use than Boss Guo's pig-killing knife. Maybe it's a treasure."

"This blind bear was killed by Du Jianguo with one blow, otherwise Lao Guo would have to go to the mountains to tell the truth. Do you think this dagger is sharp or not?" the members of the hunting team asked after seeing that everyone was curious about Du's dagger.

"Hurry up and tell me what's going on. What danger did Lao Guo encounter?" a villager asked curiously.

"After we went into the mountains to hunt two wild boars and a few roe deer, we were ready to return to the village. At that time, Mr. Guo saw a stick bird. He said that if he followed the stick bird, he would definitely find Laoshan Ginseng, so he chased after it. We all raised our eyebrows.

He was looking for prey, so let Du Jianguo follow him to see if he was in any danger. When Lao Du passed by, Lao Guo was sticking his butt out to look for wild ginseng. He didn't pay attention to the blind bear behind him and was about to shoot him.

At this time, Du Jianguo rushed up to him and gave him a hand, then gave Xiong Xiong a knife. Du Jianguo himself was even stabbed. When they got up from the side, they found that Xiong Xiong seemed to be motionless.

Jianguo's knife was inserted right into the middle of the crescent-shaped white hair on Blind Xiong's chest, and he was killed with one blow. If the dagger hadn't been sharp, these two people would have been dead, and the injured Blind Xiong would have had to fight with them.

”.

"Yes, if Du Jianguo's dagger hadn't been sharp enough to kill him, both of them would have ended up in the mountains. No wonder Mr. Guo and Du Jianguo just borrowed daggers." The villagers whose curiosity was satisfied responded.

Only then did Ya'er realize that Du's father was in such a dangerous situation. What would it have been like if she hadn't given her father the dagger? Ya'er didn't dare to think about it anymore, and she didn't know what happened to Du's father after he received the blow.

, I must check it carefully when I get home later. I still have Yunnan Baiyao, and it must be very effective. I will give it to dad to try it then.

While everyone was talking, Boss Guo had already processed two wild boars, a blind bear, and six roe deer. The two wild boars killed about 600 kilograms of meat, the blind bear weighed about 500 kilograms, and the six roe deer weighed about 300 kilograms. On average,

One person can get almost two kilograms of meat.

The group of half-grown men were waiting in line to share the meat with the pots they had just brought from home. They can share a lot of meat today, and they will definitely have delicious food in the evening. The village chief is still responsible for the distribution, and each family

The village chief knows very well how many people there are and what they are doing. Boss Guo is in charge of cutting the meat. His hands are very tight and the error will never be more than one or two. Of course, if you like fat meat, you can share more bear meat and wild boar meat.

, if you like to eat lean meat, share more meat.

Father Du knew that his daughter liked to eat lean meat, and the rest of the family liked to eat fatty meat, so he ordered 10 pounds of wild boar meat and 6 pounds of robed meat, but not bear meat. Bear meat is very fat, and most of it is oil.

There was no shortage of oil to eat. Father Du knew very well, so he stabbed the blind man to death himself, and he would definitely get a bear paw after a while. Bear paws are much more delicious than bear meat.

Sure enough, after dividing the meat into equal portions and disposing of the pig offal, pig offal, bear offal, etc., the villagers who participated in the hunting team knew that without Du Daddy, they would definitely not be able to hunt back the blind bear, and everyone took a lot of advantage. So.

Without saying a word, he even gave the right front paw of the blind bear to Daddy Du. It is said that the right front paw is the most delicious and the fattest. The blind bear hibernates and does not eat, so he spends the winter by licking this paw.

After receiving the meat, those half-grown men wanted to run home with the basins in their hands. When they left, they didn't forget to grab their mothers. If the mothers didn't come home, who would cook the meat for them? That evening

, the strong aroma of meat in the village can spread for two miles. The brothers also carried the basins of meat back home, and did not forget to call Grandma Du and Ma Du when they left.

Holding the bear paw that he had just received, Father Du stepped forward and took his precious daughter's little hand. He felt panicked after not seeing his precious daughter for a few days. He was worried about what was going on. His daughter was becoming more and more cute and well-behaved.

Being obedient and filial, he is indeed a blessed father. This is Du's complicated inner life.

"Let's go, Daddy's little baby, go home and stew bear paws to eat. Have you missed Daddy these days? Have you listened to grandma and mommy? Have you eaten obediently?" [

"I miss my dad and grandpa every day, and I never listen to my grandma and mom." The backs of the two, one big and one small, are stretched by the setting sun in the west, but they are so warm.
