Chapter 25 Hunting a Wild Boar
The whole family worked together, and it took three days to build a stone house, and the earth kang inside was also installed.

You have to burn the kang for two days to remove the moisture before you can live in it.

This matter was handed over to the two young people in charge, and it was enough to fill in two branches from time to time.

Now that there is this house, if wild beasts come, they can hide in the house, and Fang Youwei can go hunting a little further away with peace of mind.

More prey can be dried and used as food reserves. After all, they are running out of food, so they should save some food.

Fang Youwei moved all the food, pots and pans into the house, and set off with a bow and arrow on his back and a machete.

Jiayin and Fang Zhiyuan didn't quarrel with each other because they had the task of burning the kang.

Now Liuliu doesn't need to be tethered, and I stroll in the small mountain by myself, eating grass and drinking water from time to time, very leisurely.

Mrs. Li was digging wild vegetables in the nearby grove, and Mrs. Yang was washing clothes by the stream. They didn't go far, keeping a distance where they could run into the house at any time.

Jiayin looked curiously at the ashes in Mrs. Yang's hands and asked, "Grandma, if you put the ashes in your clothes, won't the clothes become more dirty?"

Mrs. Yang said to her: "No, after the plant ash is burned, put some in the laundry, and the clothes will be washed in no time. This is passed down from the ancestors."

Jiayin, I don't quite understand, but I didn't ask any more questions, but was more interested in the stick in Mrs. Yang's hand.

"If you beat the clothes with this, will the clothes be clean? Will the clothes not be smashed?" Putting ashes in the clothes and then hitting them hard with a stick is really strange.

Old Mrs. Yang was teased by her and laughed, "No, this will knock out the dirty things inside. The clothes are soft, how can they be knocked to pieces? Your little doll's question is really interesting!"

Their ancestors have washed clothes in this way for generations, and she really doesn't know if they really want to explain the reason.

It was a quiet time on the side of the small col, and Fang Youwei went a long way there, except for hunting a few pheasants and wild rabbits, he did not hunt a single big prey.

Last time, a goat fell from the trap, which meant that there were goats in this mountain, but after walking out for more than an hour, there was no sign of the goat, not even the footprints of the goat.

He wrung the necks of the pheasants and hares and put them in the basket, ready to go on. If there were no more, he would go back.

After walking ahead for a while, I saw a half-sized wild boar!The wild boar was drinking water with its head down, and didn't notice anyone approaching from the opposite side.

Fang Youwei looked left and right, and was sure that it was the wild boar that was alone. He immediately shot an arrow with a bow, and the arrow headed straight towards the wild boar with a strong wind——

Before the half-sized wild boar had time to react, it was stuck in the eye by a wooden arrow!

With only a sharp scream, he fell to the ground.

Fang Youwei stepped forward quickly, stabbed its neck a few times, and stopped after making sure that it was dead enough to die no more.

He didn't dare to delay any longer, and buried the blood on the ground with soil, and then used mud to cover the pig's wound, so as not to let it bleed again.

Then he chopped off a few branches with twigs with a machete, put the pig on the branches, and dragged it back.

With such a big guy, there is no need to fight anything else, just go back and deal with it as soon as possible.

Unlike when I came here, I searched all the way around and observed, and it took more than an hour to get here.

When I went back, I walked all the way quickly, and it didn't take that long, and I returned to the small col in more than half an hour.

Entering the only entrance from the small col, Fang Zhiyuan, who was picking up branches, saw the old man dragging the wild boar at a glance!

While cheering, he ran over, "Ah, what a big wild boar, Daddy is amazing! He even hunted a big wild boar!"

Fang Youwei smiled complacently, "What's so great about this, it's only half-sized, only about two hundred catties. A real big wild boar should weigh four to five hundred catties!"

Fang Zhiyuan's eyes gleamed, four to five hundred catties!How much meat is that?
When Mrs. Li and Mrs. Yang heard Fang Zhiyuan's cry, they also put down their work and ran over.

Seeing the wild boar that Fang Youwei was dragging in his hands, he was also very happy.

Mrs. Li hurried back to the house, took out the boning knife and the wooden basin, and Mrs. Yang hurriedly heated up the water, poured boiling water on the pig, and began to scrape off the pig's hair with a knife. If you do three, five, and two, you will get rid of the pig.

People like them hunted all the year round and were good at dismantling their prey. Soon, a wild boar turned into pieces of meat and piled them in a wooden basin.

Those bones and internal organs were also washed clean by Mrs. Li, and they were stewed in the pot.

Mrs. Li looked at the meat in the basin, and then at the salt bag, and the other party said, "I don't have much salt at home, and there is definitely not enough salted meat, and I don't know where to get it from the deep mountains and wild forests. "

Jiayin looked at the salt in the bag, and then asked Liuliu, "Where is the salt in this mountain?"

Liuliu replied suspiciously, "What is salt?"

Jiayin thought about it and described it: "It's the kind that tastes salty and white."
