The whole mountain is my hunting ground

Originally, Zhao Jun thought that Tao Fulin would be excited when he heard that there was a tiger in the mountains.

But in fact, when he heard Tao Fei say that there were Shihuzi in the mountains, Tao Fulin's hand holding the teapot shook. Thanks to Tao Fei's quick hands and eyes, the water in the teapot didn't get stuck on the kang.

"Really? False?" Mr. Tao Fulin said to Tao Fei with a serious face: "I tell you, if you dare to lie to me, you can tell me that I will deal with you."

"Sir." Tao Fei smiled and said, "You can't fool anyone. You can find out if you go out and ask around."

"What's wrong, is this?" Zhao Jun looked at Tao Fulin curiously and asked, "Old man, do you still dare to look after a tiger?"

Upon hearing Zhao Jun's words, a trace of sadness flashed across the old man's face. He shook his head and said, "Tiger, I dare not take it seriously. If it is a wild boar or a black blind man, it will be fine."

"You should have a rest." Tao Fei said, "Starting from tomorrow, my aunt will come to my house early and watch you with my mother."

"It's all nonsense." When the old man heard this, he straightened his face and said, "I'm not a child, why are you looking at me?"

Because they had dealt with him before, Zhao Jun knew who Tao Fulin was. It was not easy to come to the Tao family. Not only did he have to work for a day, but he also had to mobilize manpower to keep an eye on the old man.

At this time, Li Baoyu asked Tao Fei, "Brother, is that Shi Huzi being watched by someone or something?"

When asked by Li Baoyu, Tao Fei shook his head and said, "I heard what they meant. They didn't seem to be looking at the shadow, but at the paw prints. They said the claws are not big, so they don't look like big tigers."

Shihuzi, these different places represent different animals.

In some areas, Shihuzi refers to the big lynx or lynx.

But in Zhao Jun's area, when it comes to Shihuzi, it is a small tiger, not the big Siberian tiger.

Most of these tiger cubs are underage tiger cubs, and there are also some smaller female tigers.

It would be okay if it was a tigress, but if it was a cub, it should have parents, right?

Thinking about the tigers he had faced off against Zhou Chengguo before, Zhao Jun felt that the two were too far away and there should be no blood or affinity relationship between the two. However, he still asked Tao Fei curiously: "Xiao Fei, our team is going against each other." Does that Shi Huzi have anything to say?"

Tao Fei shook his head and said: "Brother Jun, if we want to fight this, we need to get approval from the Forestry Bureau. The current saying in our team is to try not to get involved with it."

Hearing what Tao Fei said, Li Baoyu was a little disappointed, and murmured to himself, asking who could kill the tiger so that he could watch the fun.

Although his voice was low, it was clearly understood by several people present.

Not to mention, Tao Fulin was already so old, and he still had no ears. He immediately said to Li Baoyu: "Boy Li, you brothers usually just deal with wild boar, black blind man and so on. Even if they are Shi Huzi, they are not The average person can measure it.”

"Yes." As soon as Tao Fulin finished speaking, Zhao Jun said: "Old man, you are right. You can usually just hunt some sand and half chickens, greyhounds and the like. That wild boar and black blind man are not yours." Measured."

The sentence pattern was still the same, and Zhao Jun returned Tao Fulin's words intact.

"You kid..." Tao Fulin was at a loss for words, blowing his beard and glaring at Zhao Jun.

Tao Fei on the side had a smile on his face. Tao Fulin was the king of the family, and neither his son nor his grandson would listen to him.

Zhao Jun persuaded Tao Fulin again, saying: "Old man, I am not a junior, but you said that your feet were sprained last time you went up the mountain. At such an old age, you don't like bones or anything else."

After Zhao Jun said this, Mr. Tao seemed to have really listened. He nodded and said, "That's what you said."

Hearing what he said, Tao Fei's eyes widened in disbelief, and he looked at Zhao Jun and then Tao Fulin in surprise.

Feeling his grandson's strange gaze, Tao Fulin tilted his head and glared at Tao Fei, saying, "What are you looking at?"

Naturally, Tao Fei didn't dare to ask his own father, "Why am I looking at you?" He just said, "Master, you can just stay at home tomorrow. I'll go hunting with Brother Zhao and Brother Li."

His words made Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu look at each other. You look at me, I look at you, thinking that we didn’t even say we wanted to take him.

While a few people were chatting, Tao Fei's father, Tao Xiaobao, came back.

Tao Xiaobao saw a dog at home when he entered the hospital, so he walked around for fear that the unfamiliar dog would come out and kill him again.

But dogs that fight around don't hate them no matter where they go. They don't make any noise or make a fuss, so they just find a place to lie down.

Seeing these dogs and remembering what his eldest brother said when he came back from Yong'an Village a few days ago, Tao Xiaobao guessed that it might be their family's benefactor.

When he opened the door and smelled the aroma of stewed goose, Tao Xiaobao raised his head to indicate to Li Yunxiang. Li Yunxiang nodded and said, "The young man is here. Come with me quickly into the house."

Upon hearing this, Tao Xiaobao hurriedly took off his handkerchief. When he entered the back room, Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu hurriedly got off the kang.

The three of them exchanged names. Tao Xiaobao took Zhao Jun's hand, shook it vigorously and said, "Boy Zhao, I won't say anything else. You are the benefactor of our family. When you are here, you are home. "

Zhao Jun said a few polite words to him, and everyone sat down separately. The topic of chat still revolved around tomorrow's spring hunt.

Just listen to Tao Xiaobao say to Zhao Jun: "I heard from Wu Feng that you are very good at hunting. I will ask my elder brother to get you a semi-automatic. No matter what you are hunting, he will not let you work in vain."

"That's all easy to say." Zhao Jun said with a smile: "We brothers came here just to watch the excitement. Our village is also small, and we don't have the scene of spring hunting."

"Then stay at home for a few more days and play for a few more days." Tao Xiaobao said: "There is food and drink at home. If you are willing to go up the mountain, go up the mountain. If you are not willing to go up the mountain, let Tao Fei play with you."

While several people were talking, the aroma of stewed goose outside became stronger and stronger. Li Yunxiang opened the lid of the pot, took out the steamed rice and put it aside. Then in order to prevent the rice from getting cold, use a basin to cover it.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yunxiang opened the drawer curtain and sprinkled the dried potatoes soaked in boiling water into the stewed goose.

After the curtain was put up again, Li Yunxiang took the small basin containing goose blood and sprinkled salt noodles and chopped green onions into it.

Smelling the aroma of the goose, Tao Xiaobao got off the kang, walked to the outer room and said to Li Yunxiang, "What else is there at home? How about I go out and buy two more cans."

Li Yunxiang glanced into the room, and then whispered to Tao Xiaobao: "That kid came here just now and bought two bottles of canned peaches. You go out and look at the two bottles of canned meat and come back. Our dad said it. This is the first time for the two children. When you come to our house to serve rice, you have to prepare something delicious."

"Then I'll go out and have a look." Tao Xiaobao put on his dog-skin hat and left.

Tao Xiaobao didn't come back until the goose was about to come out of the pot. But at this time, he was holding two boxes of canned lunch meat in one hand and a plate of fried fish in the other.

Li Yunxiang took the can, opened the can with a knife, and sliced ​​the lunch meat poured out of it.

At this time, seeing Tao Xiaobao putting fried fish on the stove, Li Yunxiang asked: "Where did this fish come from?"

"Ah, it's from my third uncle's house." Tao Xiaobao said with a smile, "I went to buy canned food and passed by my third uncle's house. I smelled that fish was fried in his house, so I asked him for a plate."

"Yeah, okay, we're here for the holidays." Li Yunxiang put her chopsticks on and plucked at it. Seeing that the fish on the plate were all small crucian carp as long as a handful, she nodded.

After Li Yunxiang had cut the canned lunch meat, the stewed goose was ready.

Li Yunxiang found an extra-large plate, put the whole pot of goose and dried potatoes on the plate, placed it on the kang table, and placed it in the center, with luncheon meat and fried crucian carp seeds on the left and right.

Immediately afterwards, a small basin of steamed goose blood was also served, with an aluminum spoon in it. Then, Li Yunxiang brought bowls and chopsticks to everyone, and placed the rice basin on the kang.

Li Yunxiang did not come to the table, but Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu and three generations of the Tao family ate together.

Tao Xiaobao specially opened a bottle of Dukang wine, but when he heard that Zhao Jun did not drink, he poured a glass for Li Baoyu.

The five of them started eating and drinking until after one o'clock in the afternoon. Li Baoyu and Tao Fei both drank too much and went to their rooms to rest.

On weekdays, Tao Xiaobao and his wife live in the east room, and Tao Fulin and Tao Fei live in the west room. Today Li Baoyu and Zhao Jun came and were arranged to live in the west room with the grandparents and grandchildren.

After settling the two drunken men, Tao Xiaobao led Zhao Jun to the brigade headquarters in a daze.

At this time, in the Yongxing No. 1 brigade headquarters, Yongxing brigade secretary Yu Xuewen, security director and militia platoon leader Tao Dabao, and nine secretaries from Yongxing brigade No. 2 to Yongxing brigade 10 were all present.

These people were still discussing tomorrow's spring hunting, and they didn't even have lunch before finalizing some details.

When Zhao Jun came, they had just finished the meeting. When the brigade leaders went out, they saw Tao Xiaobao greeting him one after another.

Tao Xiaobao simply responded and led Zhao Jun into the brigade headquarters.

Seeing that his brother had drunk too much, Tao Dabao frowned. But when he set his sights on Zhao Jun, he had a vague suspicion in his heart, and asked hurriedly: "Is it Zhao Jun?"

"Hello, Uncle Tao, I'm Zhao Jun." Zhao Jun took a step forward and introduced himself to Tao Dabao first.

Tao Dabao hurriedly greeted him. He clasped hands with Zhao Jun and said, "I always said I wanted to thank you in person. Last time I went to your house, I didn't even look at you. I was afraid you wouldn't come this time. When did we arrive?"

"Arrived at noon." Tao Xiaobao from the side answered, "The meal we had at my house, the goose stewed by your brothers and sisters, and the wine we drank."

"You guys drank, but Zhao Jun didn't drink, right?" Tao Dabao asked with a smile.

"Uncle, I don't know how to drink." Zhao Jun said with a smile, "But I eat a lot of meat."

"Haha..." Tao Dabao smiled heartily and said, "If you like to eat meat, then eat as much as you can. Meat is indispensable in our team these days."

"My children don't care about our meat." Tao Xiaobao, who was listening to Li Baoyu's bragging at the wine table, said, "I have a dozen or so blind men all winter."

Tao Dabao believed what he said.

When he went to Zhao Jun's house a few days ago, Tao Dabao heard Zhao Guofeng and Wang Meilan talk about it, and they both said that Zhao Jun was very powerful.

Tao Dabao reached out and patted Zhao Jun twice on the arm and said, "Now that you are here, let go and fight."

"Okay." Zhao Jun nodded and said, "Uncle Tao, I brought the dog this time, but I didn't carry a gun. I'm thinking about it. If it's convenient for our team to use a gun, please lend me one."

"This kid." Tao Dabao smiled at his younger brother, "What he said, can we still give him a gun?"

At this point, Tao Dabao turned back and said to Zhao Jun: "Just wait, I will get it for you."

After saying that, Tao Dabao turned around and went to the back room. After a while, when he came out again, he was holding a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle in one hand and a small dog bag in the other.

Beat the dog to death, this is a Northeastern dialect. It's the kind with a rope strap on top. Once you pull up the rope strap, the pocket will tighten.

Tao Dabao first handed the gun to Zhao Jun. Zhao Jun took the gun, put it on his face, gestured to a deserted place beside him, then put it away with satisfaction and hung it on his shoulder.

Then, he took the dead dog bag containing bullets from Tao Dabao.

When I started with this small bag, I felt it was heavy inside. It was obviously filled with a lot of bullets.

At this time, I heard Tao Dabao say: "These are two hundred bullets, so you can open up and shoot. If you buy more, there will be rewards in our team."

"Uncle Tao." At this time, Zhao Jun remembered something and asked, "I heard from Brother Xiaofei that there is a Shihuzi here?"

"Yeah." Tao Dabao nodded and said: "This thing, we can easily ignore it, because if we want to beat it, we have to be among the first. But it should not mess with us, otherwise we will beat it to death on the spot." "

This is a soldier's background, and every word is full of domineering.

Zhao Jun laughed when he heard this and said: "Uncle Tao, to tell you the truth, I met a tiger a while ago. I didn't dare to measure it, so I followed it for four or five miles, and then let it follow me for a few miles. I I really didn’t dare to shoot, I just shot and scared it away.”

"Hey, you are awesome." Tao Dabao said with a surprised look on his face: "There are not many people who dare to hunt tigers in this mountain."

Speaking of this, Tao Dabao sighed and said: "I just can't make it with this leg, otherwise I will try and compete with you."

Looking at Tao Dabao's injured leg, Zhao Jun said in awe: "Uncle Tao, we can't compare with you, you are a hero."

Tao Dabao laughed, waved his hand and said: "My child, I am not a hero. You are here, so don't leave in a hurry. Our team has a few days of spring hunting. Although there is something on the team, I will definitely entertain you well." When you all come to my house tonight, I'll ask your aunt to prepare some good food, and we can eat and drink some."

As soon as Tao Dabao finished speaking, someone pushed the door in from outside and said to Tao Dabao: "Director, is this serious?"

"what is wrong?"

The visitor hurriedly reported: "Someone was injured over there in Team 7!"

"What happened?" Tao Dabao stepped forward and asked as soon as he heard that he was hurting someone.

"I heard that something happened in the mountains?"

"Oh, let me take a look quickly." Tao Dabao said, picked up the cotton-padded jacket and walked out. Before going out, he turned to Tao Xiaobao and said, "Brother, please take the child home quickly. You all will go up in the evening." I'll go there."

At this time, Zhao Jun stepped forward and said, "Uncle, let me go with you to have a look."
