The whole mountain is my hunting ground

This vegetable garden is where Zhao Jun’s family grows vegetables in summer.

It is mid-April, and the temperature will be close to above freezing during the day and still drop to below freezing at night.

The sun is rising in his front yard, and the temperature is high during the day. Plus, as soon as the sun shines, the snow in the front yard has almost melted.

But in this shady vegetable garden, there is still a thick layer of snow.

But even this layer of snow has melted and frozen again on the surface.

Zhao Jun entered the garden and stepped on it.

Hearing a "whisper", Zhao Jun's cotton shoes sank into the snow.

Zhao Jun lowered his head and saw that the surface of the snow had melted and then frozen, like a thin layer of ice. The snow under it is still soft.

Zhao Jun stepped forward with the other foot. This foot fell, but it did not fall into the snow.

Zhao Jun walked forward quickly, silently calculating in his mind. When he found that for every five steps he took on average, two of them would fall into the snow, he turned around and went back to the house to eat.

After Zhao Jun finished his meal, he said hello to Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan, then left home with his tools and account book.

After Zhao Jun came out of the house, Zhao Youcai opened the window and looked out, and then said to Wang Meilan who was picking up the table, "This kid has been quiet these past two days."

"I asked you to say this." Wang Meilan replied angrily, "That's your son, why don't you just stop?"

Zhao Youcai sat on the edge of the Kang, seemingly thinking about something and did not speak.

After Zhao Jun left home, he did not leave the village and enter the mountains, but came to Zhang Yuanmin's house.

At this time, Zhang Yuanmin's family was eating on the Kang. Seeing Zhao Jun coming, Yang Yufeng hurriedly stood up and asked, "Brother, have you eaten? If not, just have a bite at home."

"Sister-in-law, please eat quickly. I've finished eating." Zhao Jun replied to Yang Yufeng with a smile, then looked at Zhang Yuanmin and said, "Brother, please come out for a while. Brother, I want to tell you something."

"Hey, that's good." Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuanmin quickly put down his chopsticks, twisted around and put his legs down on the kang.

Zhao Jun nodded to Yang Yufeng and went out first.

Seeing this situation, Yang Yufeng was very surprised, but no matter how curious she was about the matter between the father and son, she could not move forward.

Zhang Yuanmin followed Zhao Jun outside the house, and his first words were: "Brother, can you take action?"

Zhao Jun's heart suddenly jumped at this question, as if the two of them were going to do something bad.

But at this time, Zhao Jun didn't care so much. He only said to Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother, after you finish your meal, you will borrow a sledge to go up the mountain. You must go early, do you understand?"

"I know that." Zhang Yuanmin nodded. If you want to drive the sledge into the mountain at this time, you must go early. Otherwise, when the snow melts in the afternoon, it will be difficult for the sledge to move.

"Brother, when you get there, don't touch forward. Just wander around the two mountains to see if there are any new traces of the wild boars." Zhao Jun warned Zhang Yuanmin. He knew from the last time that Zhang Yuanmin would After encircling him, Zhao Jun was really relieved to leave some simple things to him.

The new traces are the new footprints left by the prey, which means no more than one day.

"I remember, brother." Zhang Yuanmin still nodded, and then asked: "What else do you have to explain."

But after asking, Zhang Yuanmin saw Zhao Jun raise a finger. He immediately understood and blurted out: "Keep it secret!"

Hearing that he could say these two words, Zhao Jun smiled and nodded, then took back his raised index finger and replaced it with his thumb to point at Zhang Yuanmin.

After seeing off Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin returned home, picked up chopsticks in one hand and two-sided steamed buns in the other, and was about to continue eating.

But at this time, Yang Yufeng walked up to him, raised her right hand and patted Zhang Yuanmin's shoulder with the back of her hand, and asked, "Hey, what are we brothers doing to you?"

Yang Yufeng knew very well that if it was a small matter, Zhao Jun would not avoid her, but if Zhang Yuanmin was called out to talk about it, it must be a big matter.

In fact, Zhao Jun didn't want to hide it from Yang Yufeng, and he knew that Yang Yufeng was more reliable than Zhang Yuanmin. Even if Yang Yufeng knew that she was going to fight the Pig God, she would not go out and tell others.

What he wants to hide is Xiao Ling Ding. This child has a loose mouth. When she hears new things, the more you don't let her go out and talk about it, the more she will go out and talk about it.

To be on the safe side, Zhao Jun called Zhang Yuanmin out.

But Zhang Yuanmin only remembered what Zhao Jun told him last time that no one could tell it, and what he said today about keeping it secret.

So, Zhang Yuanmin immediately turned his head, looked up at Yang Yufeng, and shouted: "Why are you, a bitch, getting involved in the affairs of these gentlemen?"

"I..." Yang Yufeng really lost her temper when he was reprimanded like this. She couldn't say a word. She just rolled her eyes at Zhang Yuanmin and went to clean up the stove in the outhouse.

Zhao Jun went into the mountains to pick up feet for a day at 79 Lengchang. As soon as he came down from the mountains and entered the village at night, he saw Zhang Yuanmin wandering by the road.

He no longer waited at his doorstep, but came to the village entrance.

"Brother." Zhao Jun called away.

"Brother!" Zhang Yuanmin heard the voice, turned around and saw that it was Zhao Jun. He ran towards him in a hurry. When he came to Zhao Jun, he said: "I'm looking at it! I'm looking at those pigs."

"Ah?" Zhao Jun was startled and hurriedly asked him: "Didn't I not let you go forward?"

"I didn't go forward!" Zhang Yuanmin defended: "I saw the pigs coming down from the post. They were a big bunch. There were seventy or eighty of them!"

Zhao Jun did not let Zhang Yuanmin touch him before because he was afraid that he would scare away the pigs. If he finally found out his whereabouts, if the pigs scared him away, it would be difficult to find him.

At this time, Zhao Jun heard that Zhang Yuanmin was not messing around, so he asked: "Where have all the pigs gone?"

"Going behind Shadowback Mountain!"

"Then I understand." Zhao Jun pulled Zhang Yuanmin and said to him: "Brother, you stay home early for dinner tomorrow. When you're done, you can drive the sledge and pull me up to have a look."

"OK."

The two made an agreement and went back to their respective homes. After Zhao Jun arrived home, after dinner, he went next door to find Li Baoyu.

After calling Li Baoyu out of the room, Zhao Jun said to him: "Baoyu, tell your second brother to ask for leave before you get off work tomorrow, and follow me to the mountains the day after tomorrow."

"Ah, brother, what are we going to fight for?" Li Baoyu couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard what Zhao Jun said, because he knew that Zhao Jun would not let him ask for leave if he hadn't met the big guy.

Zhao Jun thought for a while and then said to Li Baoyu: "Today, there was a letter from a tenant in Lengchang to me, saying that there was a hunchback bear bully behind the 79th class. I will go and track him tomorrow, and we will go and fight him the day after tomorrow. ."

"Okay, okay!" Li Baoyu nodded repeatedly after hearing this. The big bear has big bear bile, and the big bear bile is money.

After talking to Li Baoyu, Zhao Jun went home and took an early rest.

The next day, Zhao Jun went straight to Zhang Yuanmin's house after breakfast. After meeting Zhang Yuanmin, they rode a sledge straight into the mountain.

Along the way to Shadowback Mountain, where Zhang Yuanmin saw a herd of wild boars yesterday, Zhao Jun got off the sledge and walked over, and looked at the footprints of the wild boars when he got closer.

Zhang Yuanmin held his horse and waited outside the mountain for about half an hour before bringing Zhao Jun back.

Seeing Zhao Jun return, Zhang Yuanmin greeted him and asked, "Brother, how are you doing?"

"Go back!" Zhao Jun raised his hand outside the mountain and got on the sledge. After getting on the sledge, he said to Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother, get up early tomorrow morning. Let's go up the mountain and kill all these wild boars!"
