Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 273 One person, one horse, one gun, one dog!
Unlike winter, when the ground is covered with snow, sledges are more convenient for walking on the snow in the mountains. In summer, you can use a shelf car.

Looking at the rut marks, Zhao Tuanqing's home is still a wooden wheel, and it has just rained, so the ruts are very clear.

For the next road, Lu Lu and Chen Xiuqing only need to follow the ruts.

In such a mountain forest, the five hounds can run more easily, so their speed has also increased a lot.

Along the way, neither of them spoke, their eyes vigilantly observed the sides, paying attention to the changes around them.

This walk lasted nearly four hours, which was also seventy or eighty miles away. It was not until Yuan Bao made a sound that Lu Lv pulled the reins and stopped vigilantly.

Lu Lu looked at Yuanbao, and then looked in the direction it was looking at.

Chen Xiuqing followed and asked in a low voice, "Brother Lu, what's wrong?"

"There is someone!" Lu Lu still stared at the place where Yuan Bao was watching: "After chasing so far, if there is anyone in this mountain forest, it should be my master and the others... Let's go and have a look!"

Lu Lu flicked the rein and walked into the forest on the gentle slope.

After a while, a slender earth dog with iron-clad golden fur jumped out of the woods.

Yuan Bao and the others immediately rushed forward, whining fiercely, and the earth dog faced the five hunting dogs at once, and stopped quickly.

This is an Oroqen hunting dog, a family treasure of the wild people in Beishan. It is a rare hunting dog in the land of China. It can hunt wild wolves and large brown bears in groups of three or four.

Its ferocity is no worse than that of a big stupid dog. It is the top hunting dog selected by the Oroqen people after thousands of years.

They have a keen sense of smell and have super tracking abilities.

The hunting ability is strong, even stronger than the so-called king of hounds, Dogo.

When seeing this Oroqen hound, Lu Lu frowned slightly. The hound that Zhao Tuanqing was carrying was not this one that Lu Lu had seen before.

Isn't it Zhao Tuanqing?
This Oroqen hound is obviously also a half-grown cub, not yet an adult.

Hearing that Yuan Bao and the others were getting louder and louder, Lu Lv hurriedly spoke out, fearing that they would swarm up and bite the half-grown pup, and it would be difficult to speak.

After waiting for a while, one of them trotted out of the forest on a horse.

Lu Lu looked at that person, his expression was slightly taken aback, it was really Zhao Tuanqing who came.

When Zhao Tuanqing saw Lu Lu, he also froze suddenly.

"Papa Zhao!"

"Little Lu!"

The two laughed, turned over and jumped off the horse, walked towards each other, held hands and hugged each other, and stretched out their hands to pat each other on the back.

Zhao Tuanqing often walked around outside, and Lu Lu was not from Oroqen, so the two greeted each other without using the etiquette of the Oroqen people. They both used the familiar address when they met at the branch of the Yanwo Island Farm.

"Long time no see, you look great!"

Zhao Tuanqing looked Lu Lu up and down, and smiled.

Lu Lu was also looking at Zhao Tuanqing. After a few years, Zhao Tuanqing was much older, but his slender eyes were still shining brightly: "I'm here to find Mr. Zhao this time. Are you okay? ?”

"Okay, I'm fine! How about you?"

"I'm fine too. I live in this mountain now, and I just got married some time ago."

"Haha, you kid, you're already married...you don't come to see me right away when you get to the mountains. Sigh...it's better to be in the mountains. I lived in Ulaga for a while ago, and I'm not used to it. I get sick every now and then. It’s comfortable, but when I go back to the mountains, I feel refreshed.”

Zhao Tuanqing laughed, and looked at Chen Xiuqing who was standing stupidly aside: "This is..."

"This is my uncle, named Chen Xiuqing!" Lu Lu introduced.

Zhao Tuanqing looked Chen Xiuqing up and down: "He is a good and strong guy."

Chen Xiuqing scratched her head, followed Lu Lu's call, and called out, "Hello, Mr. Zhao!"

Then, Zhao Tuanqing's eyes fell on Yuan Bao and the others.

It seems that seeing each other's owners are very friendly, the dogs that were at war just now also returned to calm, getting together and getting familiar with each other.

"Five big stupid dogs, all very good..."

Wandering in the mountains all year round, he often encounters hunters outside. Zhao Tuanqing also has a very unique vision in this regard.

What's more, Yuanbao and the others are good dogs.

Afterwards, Zhao Tuanqing's eyes fell on Zhuifeng again, and praised: "Good horse...Xiao Lu, why did you come to this mountain? I went to Yan's Nest Island once later, and the head of Leichang said that you have returned to the city."

"I went back to the city, but I still thought about the mountain, so I came back again..."

"It's good to come back, we can meet each other often in the future, so as not to miss each other, go, follow me back to my Luo Zuozi!"

"it is good!"

Zhao Tuanqing got on his horse vigorously and rode forward to lead the way. Seeing his master move, the Oroqen hound immediately followed Zhao Tuanqing's side to guard and trot forward.

What Zhao Tuanqing rode was a green-haired Oroqen horse.

This is also a horse bred by the Oroqen people.

Oroqen horses are gentle in temperament, steady in pace and quick in action.

It is probably because they have lived in severe cold mountainous areas for a long time, and have strong adaptability to the mountains. They have good carrying ability and strong endurance in the mountains.

Especially good at mountaineering, can quickly climb steep slopes, cross forests and ditch, very sensitive.

When he was on the farm, Zhao Tuanqing rode this Oroqen horse.

Just like dogs, horses become more spiritual as they get older, and get closer to their owners.

Lu Lu even saw Zhao Tuanqing riding this horse to jump over the tower head - the grass pier growing in the swamp, passing by easily, and also saw Zhao Tuanqing riding it across the single-plank bridge.

He also heard Zhao Tuanqing say that his horse, when the snow is deep and down a steep slope in winter, can still slide down the snow slope like a dog squatting.In winter, they are stocked in snow and can pick grass by themselves and eat snow to quench their thirst.

Don't look small, but it is a good horse walking in this mountain forest.

Speaking of all the advantages, it seems that it is no worse than Lu Lu's chasing the wind. As early as when buying a horse, Lu Lu also thought about whether he should also buy an Oroqen horse.

It's a pity that these horses are also bred by the Oroqen people all the year round, and they are not easy to see in the markets in the district.

At the beginning, the Oroqen people used reindeer as their driving tools, but when they arrived in Xing'an Mountains, there were no reindeer in this place, so even if they brought in reindeer, they would not be able to get used to it here. They chose to cultivate the Oroqen horse as a substitute, but it also became an excellent breed.

Even in later generations, it will be an excellent helper for crossing mountains and protecting forests.

Of course, Lu Lu's current Sanhe Horse Chasing Wind is no worse than the Oroqen Horse, and has an advantage in speed.

Returning to the rutted place, the three of them rode their horses all the way.

Looking at Zhao Tuanqing in front of him, Lu Lu was filled with emotion.

This is a person who has fully adapted to life in the mountains. As he himself said, he found a place to settle down, but he felt uncomfortable all over. When he returned to the mountains, he felt at ease.

One person, one horse, one gun, one dog!
The preparation is very simple, but it is all in the heart. It is a taste of freedom that blends into the mountain forest.

Looking at Zhao Tuanqing, Lu Lu suddenly understood why the Oroqen people were called both the wild people of Beishan and the god of the forest.

Because, active in this mountain, they are the combination of wildness and humanity, and they are the soul of this mountain.

Half an hour later, the three climbed over several mountain ridges, and saw two fairy pillars on a flat grassland beside a small river.

A young Oroqen woman was washing mushrooms and wild vegetables by the river, and two children were chasing fluttering butterflies on the grass.

Hearing the sound in the forest, the woman stood up and looked back vigilantly, even the two children stopped.

"Ama!"

When the woman saw Zhao Tuanqing, she greeted her.

Ama is what they call their parents, which is similar to the Manchus.

Zhao Tuanqing nodded at her with a smile, got off the horse, put the horse on the grass to graze, and introduced to the woman Lu Lu and Chen Xiuqing who dismounted immediately: "These two are my honored guests, Lu Lu and Chen Xiuqing , Lu Lu, it was the time I was injured on Bird’s Nest Island, taking care of my little brother, we are best friends.”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and introduced this woman to Lu Lu: "This is my daughter-in-law Wu Nakan!"

Lu Lu looked at the woman, she looked ordinary, but gave off a very gentle feeling.After Zhao Tuanqing's introduction, Lu Lu greeted him with a smile: "Hi sister-in-law!"

Chen Xiuqing also hurriedly said hello.

Wu Nakan saluted the two of them slightly, and turned to look at Lu Lu: "Ama often tells us about you, and I have been thinking about when I will go to Bird's Nest Island again to see if I can see you again. He always told us that he hoped to see you again."

It was only after Wu Nakan said this that Lu Lu knew that Zhao Tuanqing was also thinking about him all the time. When he reached out his hand, he gave Zhao Tuanqing another hug: "Father, we finally meet again."

"Yeah, finally met!" Zhao Tuanqing was also full of emotion

After the two let go, Zhao Tuanqing pulled over the two children who were curiously watching Lu Lu and Chen Xiuqing: "This is my grandson, Tumuha. The Chinese name is Zhao Yi. This is my granddaughter, Yi." Touching the thread, the Chinese name is Zhao Ru, quickly call the two uncles."

The two children obediently called them uncle.

Lu Lu smiled and stretched out his hand to rub the heads of the two children: "Uncle came here in a hurry this time, when he comes again next time, he will bring you delicious candies."

When the two children heard it, they were even happier and shouted even more happily.

The Oroqen people choose their names more freely. No matter what name they choose, they don't have a surname, that is, only the first name without the surname.

In the eyes of the Oroqen people, there is no necessary connection between the first name and the last name. The last name belongs to the clan, and the first name is their own.

For example, they will name the child according to a certain characteristic, Zhao Yi is like this, Tumuha means the back of the head, big forehead.

They will also entrust good wishes in their names. Zhao Ru's Oroqen name Yimoxian means oily and good life.

Zhao Tuanqing knew the names of the two of them a few years ago and told Lu Lu when they were chatting.At that time, they were only one or two years old.

However, despite this, Zhao Tuanqing, his son Zhao Yongke, and two children all used Chinese names, which is still largely Chinese.

But Zhao Tuanqing turned around and asked Wu Nakan: "Where is Yongke, haven't you come back yet?"

"I came back once, and went out again, saying that the family was short of meat, so I went to hunt a roe deer!" Wu Nakan smiled.

Hearing this, looking for Tunqin immediately laughed: "Hello roe deer, just to entertain my good friend, Xiao Lu, let's have a good drink tonight!"

Lu Lu immediately smiled and nodded: "Okay!"

　Thanks to the book friends for living freely!
