The Sweet Little Fulang

At noon, the cicadas chirped non-stop, the sun threw into the dense forest through the gaps in the leaves, Shen Xuanqing climbed up a tall tree with great care, he held his breath, and the sound between actions was very slight.

The longbow and quiver were on his back, and the long knife and hemp rope were hidden in a pile of branches and grasses. He climbed very high, and his figure was hidden in the leaves. After finding a strong branch to shelter, he even hugged the trunk. No, sitting on it, motionless, only when the wind blows can you catch a glimpse of the waving of the clothes.

The sun was shining at noon, and the wild boar hid in the dense forest. He and his dog searched for it for two whole days. Only today did he find the trace of the male wild boar in the southeast.

The south is the direction he went down the mountain to go home. The wild boar here was beaten to death by the old hunter long ago, and he was absolutely sure that it was the one.

The leaves shook slightly, Shen Xuanqing gently pushed aside the leaves in front of him and looked at the low bush in the distance, where the male wild boar was sleeping.

With the head dog, Big Grey, when hunting, only it moved, and the other two dogs waited for an opportunity to move. At this time, they were all crouching behind the low **** and waiting, without making a sound.

The good boy is smart, he is used to doing things, and he knows how to do it after two days of training, but he is not as calm as the big dog. Shen Xuanqing climbs high and sees far, and he can see its tail moving in the gaps in the forest. .

The location of the wild boar has been determined. It is too late to dig traps nearby today. Small traps are difficult to deal with such a big wild boar. Moreover, the wild boar has a very keen sense of smell. Shi Lian's dog, who had been smeared with grass juice on his body, could only walk around and hide in the downwind of a mile away, not daring to get too close.

The dense forest was deep and quiet, and suddenly a whistle like a bird like a falcon was heard, which was sharp and piercing, and the birds in the forest flew into the air, and the treetops trembled.

The hound jumped up and ran.

At the same time, a huge dark body suddenly rushed out from under the bushes.

Shen Xuanqing, who was hiding in the tree, saw that this male wild boar was really not small, with thick and long fangs that turned out. In a few years, it would not be a problem to become a wild boar king. He became more and more awe-inspiring. If Lu Gu didn't have time to run that day, It will really kill you.

He took off the longbow with his backhand. He moved very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he took the arrow and opened the bow. The frightened wild boar ran rampantly. It seemed to recognize the good boy and rushed straight there.

Not to mention a dog, even three hounds couldn't kill it. The skin of such a big wild boar was thick and rough, and even a bite would not necessarily hurt it.

Shen Xuanqing calmed down, his eyes did not blink, and the arrow tip moved as the wild boar ran. Only by aiming can he hit it with one hit.

The only weakness of the wild boar is the middle of the forehead. The three dogs are biting and dodging together. In addition, the wild boar is constantly moving, making it difficult for him to release the arrow.

The usually good-natured boy shows his fangs, barks his teeth and growls, just like a vicious dog. The **** is fierce by nature, biting his red eyes and doesn't even recognize the owner. It looks thin, but smart and ferocious.

The three dogs attacked and surrounded him from three directions. Between you and me, the head dog, Da Hui, led the male wild boar step by step towards Shen Xuanqing.

The good boy was chased, the impact of the male wild boar was very powerful, and he was not slow at all. He could only run in front of him, trying to lure the wild boar over.

Here comes the opportunity.

Shen Xuanqing on the tree silently aimed at the middle of the wild boar's forehead, and the heavy arrow shot out, waiting for the result in a moment.

However, wild boars are sensitive and can grow to such a large size surrounded by natural enemies such as jackals, tigers and leopards.

But in the blink of an eye, a heavy arrow came, and the sound of breaking wind made it sense the movement. Under the crisis, it turned around, and the heavy arrow broke through the flesh, only inserted into its neck.

The good boy who was almost bitten ran out for a while before he stopped and looked back.

The male wild boar was bleeding from the neck, and its body was shaking. Unexpectedly, it did not fall down. The venomous juice was immediately absorbed by people, and it could be paralyzed without breaking the skin.

Shen Xuanqing was not afraid, he slid down from the tree and looked at the rejuvenated male wild boar.

It is often said that pigs are stupid, but this is not the case. The wild boar is so huge that it rushed over after seeing him.

Standing on the spot, Shen Xuanqing drew an arrow and drew a bow, aiming at the wild boar's forehead. Ordinary feathered arrows can't deal with wild boars, but this heavy arrow is different.

Before the arrow could be fired, the male wild boar that was about to rush to the front collapsed with a bang, its ugly long mouth and fangs were only four or five steps away from Shen Xuanqing.

The dust was flying, Shen Xuanqing put away the bow and arrow, raised his hand and fanned the dirty ashes in front of him.

If he hadn't known that the poisonous herbs were violent, like seeing blood seal his throat, he wouldn't be so calm, because the male wild boar was too big, and it would take a while for the medicinal properties to take effect, otherwise he would be knocked down after being shot by the arrow.

To prevent an accident, he turned around and pulled out a long knife from under the branch, and stuck it in the middle of the wild boar's forehead.

The wild boar was no longer able to get up, Shen Xuanqing whistled, the hound put away his fangs and stopped growling, returning to normal.

The wet mud on the trampled ground turned up, and the vegetation was very messy. Looking at the big wild boar lying in front of him, he was relieved.

The dogs all gathered around and sniffed, fearing that they would get blood on the neck of the wild boar, he snapped the dog back, grabbed one hind leg of the wild boar and dragged it towards the river.

There are bloodstains on the grass and leaves along the way. This wild boar is really not light, at least 350 pounds. It is a big guy.

After reaching the river, Shen Xuanqing released his hands, the back legs of the wild boar landed heavily, and the pig's body trembled.

The river is turbulent and the river is wide and flowing. It is still deep in the mountains, and the river is far away from the village.

He pulled out the heavy arrow from the neck of the wild boar. The arrow was quenched with venom juice. He squatted by the river and swiped water on the arrow with one hand. The blood dripped down the tip of the arrow to the mud on the river bank. Then he put the arrow across the bank, the arrow was submerged in the water, and the body of the arrow was pressed with stones.

The hemp poison juice is even more violent when it is stained with blood. It is good to wash it in the river. The river is winding and winding, and the village at the foot of the mountain is very long and long. The toxicity is diluted by such a large river. It will be fine. More than ten years That's what his former master did.

He pulled out the long knife on the wild boar's forehead, slashed and cut the arrow wound on the pig's neck, plucked out a large piece of meat, and the black blood flowed more and more on the ground.

Shen Xuanqing threw the piece of meat and did not let the dog eat it.

The thick **** smell made the three dogs keep sniffing and their noses moved. They were especially sensitive to this smell.

After a lot of blood flowed from the neck, Shen Xuanqing dragged the wild boar over and immersed the pig's head and neck in the rushing water.

The white river water turned red in an instant, and was rushed into the distance again. After he could no longer see the blood, he dragged the wild boar up.

As for the puddle of blood on the ground, he kicked the soil with his feet and held it with his hands, burying the blood stained with hemp poison. It's not that he is kind, he is afraid that other wild animals will be poisoned, and the blood will attract bloodthirsty beasts, so it is better to cover it up.

It was really laborious to drag such a heavy wild boar around. He rested on the spot and looked up at the sky. It was just after noon and he was able to rush back. The rope tugged on his shoulders and dragged him down the mountain.

In the past few days, I was hunting this beast. When I got up early and went out, I had locked the courtyard door, and I didn't even need to go back.

He drained the blood of the wild boar because he was afraid that something would follow along with the smell of blood. He would not be able to walk fast with such a heavy wild boar.

In addition to the hidden danger and revenge, Shen Xuanqing was in a good mood, and his expression was not as tense as when he first went up the mountain. Including today, he has been on the mountain for six days, and he brought back this wild boar. He would be happy if he came to Lu Gu, and he could sell it for a lot of money.

He walked all the way, the wild boar behind him dragged traces on the ground, and there were dogs running behind him, but he was not afraid.

—

In the evening, Lu Gu was eating at home when he heard the cries of the good boy outside. He didn't have time to put down his chopsticks, so he hurried to the door to look.

Wei Lanxiang and Shen Yaoqing were behind him, and when they saw Shen Xuanqing, who appeared from the gentle slope, hunched over his back and dragged the hemp rope on his chest, they quickly went to meet him.

"It's so big!" Wei Lanxiang was surprised, even Shen Yaoqing was startled when he saw the wild boar.

Shen Xuanqing put down the hemp rope, loosened his shoulders, and said with a smile, "No, three hundred and fifty jins face upwards, it's going to sink all the way."

He looked at Lu Gu again, his eyes brightened, and asked, "Look, is it this one?"

The wild boar scraped and rubbed again and again on the mountain road, the meat on the neck was missing a large piece, the bristles were messy, and it was almost unrecognizable, but Lu Gu saw the terrifying size of the wild boar, so huge, and the pair of fangs. , He had a dream last night that he was almost bitten by a wild boar.

"That's it." He nodded, but his eyes were still amazed. Shen Xuanqing had actually hunted such a big male wild boar.

His extremely surprised eyes made Shen Xuanqing satisfied and proud, the hardships he suffered on the mountain these days were nothing.

"Mother, don't touch it, I smeared the venomous juice on the arrow, and I missed it carefully." When she turned her head and saw Wei Lanxiang curiously looking at the wound on the pig's neck, Shen Xuanqing hurriedly spoke.

Wei Lanxiang immediately retracted the hand she was about to stretch out.

Shen Yaoqing took the hemp rope and dragged the wild boar to the house. Shen Xuanqing and Lu Gu walked together and said, "I can't eat this pork right now. I will dig some herbs and boil a pot of water tomorrow, and wash the pork in it two or three times. to eat."

"I know, I'll go digging tomorrow morning." Wei Lanxiang heard from the old hunter before that the wild animals that have been poisoned should be washed with water boiled with good grass, so that the medicinal properties can be washed away.

Although the numbness is strong, it will only cause paralysis. Even if you don’t need to wash with good herbs, the effect of the medicine will fade after four or five days. But it is summer now, and the meat is not easy to put on, so you can only eat it tightly. Besides, you should be cautious about what you eat. some as well.

"We can't finish eating it at home." Wei Lanxiang said again.

Shen Xuanqing said, "It's already dead, it's not a live pig that is being slaughtered, and the meat has to be washed before it can be sold. It's cheaper to see who in the village wants to buy it, ten cents a pound."

Meng Dayue, a neighboring village, killed pigs a few days ago. It costs 17 cents per pound, which is still cheap. When it is expensive, it costs 20 cents. They only sell 10 cents. It is indeed too cheap, but this wild boar is really big. Even if only 100 catties of meat are left after the viscera is peeled off, it can earn a thousand wen, a tael of silver, not to mention that the meat must be up to 100 catties.

Wei Lanxiang pondered the calculation in her heart, and smiled happily after she figured it out.

Ji Qiuyue and Shen Yan were waiting for them at the courtyard gate. When they saw a big wild boar dragged back, they were both startled. Aunt Miao next door went out to wash the pot of water. : "Chunsheng, his father! Come out and see!"
