Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 384 Huahua gives pigs away
Here, Liu Yuhe bandaged the dog and waited until he got the dog's owner. Then he separated from Zhao Dayan and followed the tracks on the snow to chase Sheng Xiping and others.

On the other side, the brothers Sheng Xiping and Liu Yujiang followed Gouzi to chase the troubling wild boar.

The wild boar couldn't run as fast as a dog. Erlang Shen and his group of dogs chased him for three miles and caught up with the troubling wild boar.

The dogs swarmed up and surrounded the pig.

These thirteen dogs are not comparable to Zhao Dayan's four.

Although Erlang Shen, Hei Jiangjun, Da Qing and Er Qing are a bit older, they are big and experienced.

Leopard, Fat Tiger, Xiao Hua, and Xiao Hui all weighed [-] pounds, and this was the time when their physical strength was at its best.

Although Zhaocai, Wangfu, Dalong and Erhu are still small, they often go up the mountain. They have experienced hundreds of battles and are not easy to mess with.

Among this group, Xiao Huang is the only one with slightly weaker combat power.

When the wild boar saw such a large group of dogs, it became timid before fighting, turned around and wanted to run away.

Can these dogs let the meat on their lips escape?
Erlangshen took the lead and took out a big bag on the pig's crotch. General Hei and Fat Tiger bit the two ears of the wild boar, Erhu bit the pig's mouth, and Daqing and Erqing took out the pig's front elbows respectively. In the lower position, lucky and prosperous people bite the pig's hip bones.

Seeing that the leopard had nowhere to eat, he simply bit the balls.The few remaining dogs would bite wherever they caught them.

The wild boar, which had just faced several dogs in a majestic manner, was pinned to the snow by the dogs and could not move.

The pig struggled desperately, but it only weighed about three hundred pounds. How could it be a match for thirteen dogs?The dogs bit the pig and no one was willing to let go.

When the two brothers Sheng Xiping and Liu Yujiang arrived, they saw that the wild boar had lost its strength. The dogs were biting the pig and whining in protest.

As soon as Sheng Xiping saw it, he immediately put half of his bayonet on him, came closer, and stabbed the wild boar to death with one blow.

The wild boar screamed twice, and with a large amount of blood gushing out, its body twitched a few times, and then stopped struggling.

But the dogs didn't let go immediately. They still pounced on the wild boar mountain and bitten for a while before stopping.

Sheng Xiping drove the dogs away, then came forward, disembowelled the wild boar, and took out all the pig's offal to feed the dogs.

Thirteen dogs, how can there be enough food for them with the pigs?It was just a half-full meal and then it was gone.

So everyone licking their lips and wiping their tongues wandered around the owner, wanting to order more meat.

When Sheng Xiping saw this, he cut some meat from the pig and fed it to the dogs.

When you go hunting in the mountains, it is normal to encounter any prey. After all, dogs are not humans, and they will not specifically pick out sows or piglets to chase. They always identify the target and pursue it at the first sight.

A running basket weighing about three hundred pounds is not too big. The meat is not as good as that of sows and huangmaozi, but it is okay.

If it were any bigger, the meat would be tough and tough, and it wouldn't taste good.

"They are all good. They are becoming more and more promising." Sheng Xiping fed the dogs and rubbed the heads of Erlang Shen and Huabao with his hands.

A pig weighs about three hundred kilograms. After removing the pig meat and cutting off some meat to feed the dogs, there is only about two hundred kilograms left.

With such a small weight, there was no need to get a sledge. Liu Yujiang found a rope and tied the pig directly. Later, they pulled the rope and dragged the pig back.

After Sheng Xiping fed the dog, the three of them dragged the pig back and met Liu Yuhe halfway.

Liu Yuhe told what happened when he met Zhao Dayan just now.

"This unlucky thing felt uncomfortable when he went out in the morning and went into the mountains. Now it's good, the dog was injured.

His dog's stomach was opened by a wild boar, and a piece of his intestines came out. He didn't know if the dog could survive. "

When the other three heard this, they all shook their heads and sighed. This was the end of the hunting dog.

I don't know if I encounter any powerful prey one day, and I will break it on the mountain.

"Hey? Second brother, Zhao Dayan didn't say where he came from? Did his dog meet a solitary pig, or was it a group of pigs?"

Sheng Xiping suddenly remembered this and asked casually.

"Oh, I told you, he entered the mountain from this end, and met a herd of wild boars in the oak forest about ten miles west of Laoshendi.

According to what he said, it seemed that the pigs were chased away by the dogs and ran towards the northeast. "

Liu Yuhe recalled the conversation with Zhao Dayan just now, turned to look at the forest behind him, and roughly pointed in the direction.

Several of them had grown up in this forest and were very familiar with the surroundings. As soon as Liu Yuhe said it, Sheng Xiping could probably tell where the escaped pigs would feed this afternoon.

Sheng Xiping thought about it in his mind and felt that the journey was too far. It was not cost-effective to take a long detour to get there today.

"Then let's go back first. Anyway, we caught a pig today. If it doesn't work, I will bring the dog up again tomorrow."

Come out of the forest farm tomorrow morning and go straight to the east, it will be much closer that way.

Liu Yujiang raised his hand and looked at his watch. They entered the mountain at eight o'clock. It was a relatively smooth day today. They caught a pig very quickly. It was just past eleven o'clock now.

"Okay, let's go back today. Tomorrow morning, we will lead the dog and go straight to the east end to block those pigs."

A pig holds a banquet, which is a little less.

"Okay." The others nodded in agreement, then pulled the pig and walked back slowly.

When we came here, we had to take a long detour over mountains and ridges in order to chase away the wild boars. Naturally, we couldn't waste our energy on our way back.

So a few people dragged the pigs along the old foundation of the original winter boardwalk under the ditch and pond, which saved a lot of effort.

The dogs didn't put in much effort today, and they easily held down a pig, and they had a lot of fun when they went back.

People were walking under the ditch and pond, and thirteen dogs were running all over the mountains and plains on the slopes on both sides of the ditch and pond.

We had just walked three or four miles when suddenly, on the northern hillside, Erlang Shen sniffed and howled toward the east.

As soon as Erlang Shen barked, the dogs on the southern hillside quickly gathered towards the north.

Then, I saw Erlang Shen leading a group of dogs and running towards the hillside.

"Hey, let me go, these dogs are having so much fun again." Sheng Xiping slapped his forehead. He had forgotten to leash the dog just now.

Erlangshen is a very arrogant dog, but he is shameless. If he doesn't knock down prey while working in the mountains, he will be listless for several days and won't even want to eat.

If it goes too smoothly and the dog sells the goods as soon as he enters the mountain, the dog will find it unsatisfying and have to kill one more round.

Today was going so well that Erlangshen felt that he had nowhere to vent his energy, so he led the dog all over the mountain.

I don’t know what happened to me at this moment, but luckily, I took all the dogs away again.

The main reason was that Sheng Xiping and the others were dragging the pigs, and it was too troublesome to have more than ten dogs tied up and led. As a result, no one was paying attention, and the dogs ran away again.

"It's okay, it's still early anyway, let's follow over and have a look.

Well, second brother, you and Xi'an drag the pig back first, while Xiping and I chase the dog. "

Liu Yujiang made a prompt decision and went to chase the dog with Sheng Xiping with a gun on his back.

As for Liu Yuhe and Sheng Xian, they dragged the pig and continued walking back.

Erlangshen led the dogs all the way over the mountains and hills, and disappeared in an instant.

The dog ran happily in front, and the man chased him with somersaults and panting behind him. The two-legged dog wanted to chase the four-legged dog, and it took a lot of effort.

The two brothers followed the dog's running path all the way over mountains and hills, down the hillside and through ditches and ponds, and then ran up the mountain.

At this time, the faint barking of dogs that had been heard in front suddenly disappeared.

The two brothers were both panicking. They were afraid that the dog would suddenly stop moving.

So, regardless of how tired they were, the two of them ran forward desperately to catch up.

After they climbed over a small ridge again, a surprising scene appeared in front of them.

All thirteen dogs were still there and had not been killed, but they all had their tails between their legs and looked very scared.

Seeing his master following him, Erlang Shen and the other dogs ran back dejectedly, chirping in grievance at Sheng Xiping.

Sheng Xiping and Liu Yujiang looked at each other and were shocked. Did they meet some powerful guy?Can you scare thirteen ferocious hunting dogs like this?

Without saying a word, Sheng Xiping fired three shots into the air.

The sound of gunfire echoed in the mountains, and then a tiger roar came from the distance.

Erlang Shen was waiting for the dog. The moment he heard the tiger's roar, he was so frightened that he clamped his tail again.

"There is a tiger." Liu Yujiang said in shock. "Is it your Huahua?"

Sheng Xiping shook his head, "I haven't seen it. I can't tell it just by listening to the sound."

Judging by the volume of the sound, the tiger was quite far away from them.

It is estimated that when Erlangshen and the others chased after them, the tiger had just walked away and left a strong aura, so the dogs were so frightened that they did not dare to go forward.

When they were chasing the dogs just now, they found some traces of pigs walking on the ground.Most likely, the tiger was hunting wild boar just now.

"Go, let's go ahead and have a look."

Liu Yujiang was considered a very brave man. Since he and Sheng Xiping were both good at shooting, the tiger should have gone far away, so he suggested walking forward to take a look.

The two of them walked down the hillside, arrived at the foot of the mountain, and walked a short distance further. As expected, there were messy footprints on the ground.

Those were the traces left by the pigs scurrying around in panic. In front of them, there were bright red blood stains on the snow.

Sheng Xiping and the other two stepped forward to take a look. The blood stains were not frozen yet. It must be that a tiger hunted the wild boar here not long ago and then walked away.

"Let's go home quickly."

The pigs were scattered and would not stop for a while.There is still a strong smell of tigers here, and the dogs probably don't dare to follow it anymore.

So Liu Yujiang sighed, put his gun on his back, turned around with Sheng Xiping, and led the dog back.

This time, all the dogs lost their energy, and Erlangshen lowered his head and walked forward on his own.

"Ouch, your temper is coming up again, isn't it? Isn't it the time to be so angry all over the mountain just now?"

Sheng Xiping found it funny when he saw Erlangshen behave like this. The dog was frightened by the tiger, felt shameless, and started to act petty again.

So he hurriedly walked a few steps, caught up with Erlang Shen, reached out and rubbed its head.

Erlang Shen was comforted by his master, and seemed to feel a little better. He rubbed his head against Sheng Xiping's trouser leg, and then he regained some energy, turned around and ran away. "This dog is so spiritual. None of his children follow his temper.

It's a pity that even if the dog is old, I can't see it climbing up the mountain anymore. Liu Yujiang said casually as he watched Erlang Shen trotting away.

Ordinary dogs can live for more than ten years, but hunting dogs go into the mountains all year round and are always injured. Generally speaking, their life span is not long. Those that can live seven or eight years are considered good.

"Brother, don't tell it in front of it. This little dog has a little face. If you say it can't go up the mountain, it will get angry with you."

Sheng Xiping laughed when he heard this.

The two brothers chatted and laughed, leading the dog back. When they were about to enter the village, they caught up with Liu Yuhe and Sheng Xi'an.

When Liu Yuhe saw the two brothers coming back empty-handed, he felt it was strange and asked about it. When he learned that they had met a tiger, Liu Yuhe also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thankfully the tiger caught the pig first, otherwise, what would have happened to these silly dogs."

"Not necessarily. If it's Huahua, it should be fine. If it were another tiger, it would be fine." Sheng Xiping said with a smile.

Huahua grew up eating dog milk. She is quite friendly to dogs and close to people.

So despite the fact that Huahua has been back in the mountains and forests for so long, no matter whether it is the Dajia Farm or the Qianchuan Forest Farm, there has never been any news of tigers hurting people or livestock.

The brothers have been running around in the mountains for most of the day. At noon, they asked Erlang Shen and others to stir up the trouble, but they didn't get anything to eat.

Anyway, we arrived home at around two o'clock. Zhang Shuzhen took a look and quickly heated up the food. The brothers devoured the meal and finally felt much better.

After dinner, the Liu brothers were not in a hurry to leave. They sat on the kang and played with the two children for a while, chatting with Zhang Shuzhen for a while.

After having enough rest, the two of them said goodbye. Before leaving, they made an appointment with Sheng Xiping that they would go up the mountain again tomorrow.

Sheng Xiping originally said that he wanted to share the meat with Liu Yujiang and the others, but the two brothers didn't want it. They only said that they would keep it for the banquet.

I don’t know if I can find prey when I go up the mountain tomorrow. The Liu family has no shortage of meat to eat, so I’d better keep these.

After seeing off the Liu Yujiang brothers, Sheng Xiping and Sheng Xi'an were busy skinning and deboning the wild boar. Following Zhang Shuzhen's instructions, they cut the meat into pieces and put them outside to freeze.

In the evening, Zhang Shuzhen put the picked pork bones into a large pot, just in time to drink soup and meat tomorrow morning.

Around five o'clock the next day, Sheng Xiping wanted to get up to fetch water, but when he opened the door, he discovered that it had snowed at some point last night.

There was a layer of white snow on the ground, almost two inches thick, and there were still scattered snowflakes slowly falling in the sky.

It was cold at night, but warmed by the sun during the day. When the snow melted, the yard was filled with mud and water, making it difficult to walk.

So Sheng Xiping quickly took a broom and opened the door to sweep the snow.

Unexpectedly, when I opened the door, I found two pigs at the door, one was yellow-haired and the other was piggy.

Sheng Xiping stepped forward and touched it, feeling that the two pigs were still warm. Then he looked at the snow in front of the gate and saw several large footprints, which were the tiger's plum blossom-shaped paw prints.

Needless to say, this was sent to me by Huahua, who must have just left.

"Second child, third child, get up and help, Huahua is sending pigs."

Sheng Xiping threw down the broom, dragged the two pigs into the yard, and then ordered Sheng Xian and Sheng Xikang to come out to work.

When the two brothers heard the eldest brother's cry, they hurriedly put on their clothes and went out. As soon as they went out, they saw two pigs outside.

"Oh, this Huahua is amazing. How did it drag two pigs into the village?" Sheng Xian muttered curiously.

"Okay, don't worry about how you got it back. Hurry up and disembowel it. I don't know when Huahua bit it to death. Don't cover the chest anymore. The meat can't be eaten."

The two pigs were intact, with no other wounds on their bodies except for a few bloody holes on their necks.

Sheng Xiping was afraid that the pork would be unpalatable if it covered its chest, so he quickly took out a sharp knife, opened up the pig, and took it out for delivery.

Fortunately, the pig died not too long ago and the internal organs no longer stink.

Zhang Shuzhen also got up at this time. When she went out and saw the situation, she quickly told Sheng Xiping to boil water to remove the hair and stop peeling.

Just leave some meat with the skin on, or use it to make braised pork or braised pork.

Naturally, the three brothers had to listen to their mother's instructions, so they quickly made a fire and boiled water.

Not long after, two large pots of water were boiled, and the pig was placed on the chopping board. The hot water was poured on it, and then the pig hair was scraped off with a knife.

The three brothers worked hard all morning and finally cleaned up the two pigs.

Sheng Xiping was also worried about the smell of the pork, so he put the meat in a large basin, soaked it in water, and changed the water several times.

With these two pigs, there is no need to go to the mountains anymore.

So Sheng Xiping sent Sheng Xitai to the Liu family to report the news and told the Liu Yujiang brothers that they didn't need to go up the mountain today.

February 26th, Sunday, the twentieth day of the first lunar month.The Sheng family held a banquet to celebrate Sheng Xi'an and Zhou Qinglan's admission to college.

Sheng Liancheng asked for leave and went down the mountain. Zhou Mingyuan and Wang Chunxiu, his wife, led Zhou Qingyue to the forest farm one day early.

Even Wang Jianshe, Chen Weiguo and others took leave and came to help.

There is also a large alkali farm in Qianchuan Forest Farm, and everyone who has a good relationship with the Sheng family comes to congratulate and help.

It happened to be Sunday and students were not in class, so the students Zhou Qinglan taught also came.

The Sheng family's place was small and they couldn't hold so many banquets, so they set up a few tables at the neighbor's house next door.

A total of more than ten tables were set up at noon and evening. Forest farm officials such as Wang Jiachuan and Zheng Xianyong, as well as teachers from the school, were all present.

Even father and son Zhao Yongsheng and Zhao Guangning came to Maekuan on motorcycles with congratulatory gifts.

The excitement was almost as good as when Sheng Xiping got married.

Many guests gathered together, toasted and drank together to celebrate the golden phoenix flying out of the big mountain ravine.

On the 27th and 28th, Zhou Qinglan and Sheng Xi'an made final preparations at home, packing everything they needed to bring.

"Mom, I'm going to school soon. Xinhua and Xinyu at home have to be taken care of by my mother, so she has to worry about them.

My dad asked someone to buy milk powder from Tonghua, and he will send some more in a while.

Xinyu is not as solid as Xinhua, so my mother may have to worry a little more. It will take me several months to come back, which makes my mother tired. "

On the evening of the 28th, Zhou Qinglan held Sheng Xinyu in her arms, breastfed her youngest son, and said goodbye to her mother-in-law while wiping tears.

She really couldn't bear to let go of her child, but it was hard for her to get into college. It was related to her lifelong future. She had to go to college, and she could only owe it to her child.

"Oh, look at you, why are you crying? It's a good thing that you go to college.

The child has grown up in a blink of an eye, and he can't remember what happened when he was a child.Just wait until you come back from school and accompany him to grow up, but don't cry. "

When Zhang Shuzhen saw her daughter-in-law acting like this, she had to persuade her.

"Just study hard and study hard. Leave all the family matters to me.

When you come back after the holidays, you will see that your child is healthy and plump, and you will not treat him badly. "

After Zhang Shuzhen tried to persuade and comfort her, Zhou Qinglan stopped crying.

That night, Sheng Xinhua, who had slept with her grandma for a long time, also ran over to her mother for a hug. Zhou Qinglan hugged her two sons and almost didn't sleep a wink all night.

On the morning of March [-]st, Wang Jiachuan specially arranged a motorcycle truck at the venue to take the Sheng family to Songjiang River.

The other children of the Sheng family also took leave and went to the small train station to see them off.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, we are at home, Xinhua and Xinyu, we will take good care of them."

On the platform, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei took Zhou Qinglan's hands and assured her.

"Second brother, when you go out, you should have more contact with people. Don't be rigid and dogmatic like you are at home."

Sheng Xikang and Sheng Xitai were close to Sheng Xian, and Sheng Xikang taught his brother how to get along with others with a serious look on his face.

Although Sheng Xikang is younger than Sheng Xian, he has a lively temperament and is enthusiastic in dealing with people and things. Not to mention being all-rounded, he is much better than Sheng Xian anyway.

The older brother he grew up with was going to study abroad. Sheng Xikang was most worried about his second brother's character, so he warned him repeatedly before leaving.

"Second brother, remember to write to us. If you can take photos, take some more photos and let us see what the Ice City looks like.

When you have a vacation, don't forget to bring us some good things. "

Compared with the mature third brother, Sheng Xitai is much simpler and directly asks the second brother for gifts.

Sheng Xi'an smiled at the two younger brothers, "Okay, I will listen to you. When I get there, I will try to contact as many people as possible.

When you have free time, go out for a walk and see what good things there are, and bring them back to Lao Liu when the time comes. "

The departure time of the motorcycle truck was negotiated between the dispatcher and Sentie, so Zhou Qinglan and the others could not delay for too long. After a brief farewell, the three of them got on the bus.

The driver of the motorcycle truck took the time to start the car, honked the horn, and then the car slowly drove away from the small train station.

Sheng Xikang and others were on the platform, waving vigorously towards the car. Zhou Qinglan and Sheng Xian were also lying on the window, waving towards the car.

The motorcycle took Sheng Xiping and the others to the Sentie Railway Station. As soon as they got off the train, they saw Zhou Qingyue waiting on the platform.

"I specially hired a donkey jeep. Our mother said that you must have brought a lot of luggage, which is difficult to carry."

Without saying anything, Sheng Xiping took the large and small luggage off the motorcycle truck and put it on the donkey cart.

Then the three of them also got into the car. The boss of the car flicked his whip, and the little donkey spread its hooves and walked toward the streets of Baishan.

Arriving at the entrance of the alley where Zhou's family was located, Zhou Qingyue told the driver and asked him to make another trip at eight in the morning to see him off.

After the driver asked clearly about the Zhou family's location, he nodded and drove the donkey cart away.Sheng Xiping and others entered the Zhou family's gate with their luggage and packages.

There is no direct train to the provincial capital these days, so you need to reverse train from Hunjiang or Tonghua.

The last time Sheng Xiping went to the provincial capital, he drove from Hunjiang River.

Sheng Xiping and the others came over a day early and wanted to stay one night at Zhou's house before leaving by train tomorrow morning.

Hearing the noise outside, Wang Chunxiu came out with a spatula.

"Oh, are you all here? Come on, go inside and rest. I have the last two dishes left. After cooking, let's eat."
