Returning to 83 Mountain Hunting

Chapter 117: Let’s go hunting together (please order the full version)

Ocelots, two ocelots appeared in Ji Chang's field of vision.

One big one and one small one were lying on a tree and yawning.

They didn't show any panic or fear at Ji Chang's appearance. They still lay down and looked a little lazy.

Because ocelots are smaller carnivores, slightly larger than domestic cats, with a body length of 36 to 66 centimeters, a tail length of 20 to 37 centimeters, a weight of 1.5 to 8 kilograms, and a tail length of more than half of the body length.

The ocelot's head is round, with four dark brown stripes (or spots) from the head to the shoulders, and a white stripe from the inside of the eyes upward to the back of the forehead.

The back of the ear is black with an obvious white spot.The body hair on the back of the body is brown or light brown, covered with irregular black spots.The chest, abdomen and inner sides of the limbs are white, there are brown spots or half rings on the back of the tail, and the tail end is black or dark gray.

Leopard cats mainly feed on rats, rabbits, frogs, lizards, snakes, small birds, insects, etc. They also eat berries, banyan fruits and some young leaves and grass. Sometimes they sneak into villages to steal chickens, ducks and other poultry. .

The eating habits and living habits of ocelots are very similar to those of jungle cats commonly known as "wild raccoons." Although the two have different appearances, they are still easily confused.

Leopard cats are widely distributed in China and have a large amount of resources. They are one of China's traditional fur exports.

60～70年代，中国豹猫毛皮年收购量约20～25万张，估计全国的豹猫资源量不少于100万只。

After the 70s, the number of leopard cats has declined in most provinces and regions, and in some provinces and regions (such as northern and eastern China), leopard cats have almost become endangered species.

80年以后，年收购量约为60年代的1/3～1/2。

It can be said that this species is in a state of continuous sharp decline.

So Ji Chang was surprised to see them.

Ji Chang had no intention of hitting them. This kind of cat and leopard was still worth protecting.

Ji Chang took a few photos with his camera and then walked away.

The two cats and leopards did not conflict with Ji Chang. When they left, they stayed in the tree, looking like they were ready to catch up on their sleep.

After leaving the leopard cat's range, Ji Chang took out a piece of cloth.

This cloth is part of the cloth that Ji often used to mark the location of the hive.

It's a pity that Ji Chang, who followed the two hounds, couldn't successfully find the location.

However, they successfully left the jungle and returned to the county town.

When he returned home, Ji Chang found that Xu Rui was playing with tigers at his home with members of the Dongyou Band.

Tonight, they came to see Ji Chang at the agreed time.

When they saw Ji Chang coming back, they immediately approached him and found that Ji Chang's donkey was carrying a muntjac on its back.

This was naturally taken from the hunting space. After all, Ji Chang didn't hunt any prey this time in the mountains.

Ji Chang didn't bring the two jackals back, so he took them to the goshawk's nest so that they could get acquainted with each other.

Ji Chang has discovered that there seems to be something special about the prey that have been domesticated by the hunting space. They are easy to get along with.

Otherwise, Ji Chang would have to spend some time on the mountain.

Together with the goshawk and the jackal, Ji Chang believed that they could still support him while he was away.

When Ji Chang gets the winery, he won't have to worry about these animals starving in the forest.

At that time, he can directly let the prey that he has tamed run to his villa to eat.

"Would you like to arrange for roasted whole muntjac?"

Ji Chang saw that the house was very lively, not only from the Dongyou Band, but also from Liu Xue and the others.

Therefore, it is completely possible to get a roasted whole muntjac.

"Sounds good. Come on, I've only eaten roasted whole lamb and roasted suckling pig, but I haven't eaten roasted whole muntjac yet!" Xu Rui said excitedly.

"Come on, come on, it's exciting!" Xu Ye also looked excited.

"Okay, let's do it!" Ji Chang grinned, and then began to unload the muntjac on the donkey's back.

Then Ji Chang began to skin the muntjac. This kind of work was familiar to Ji Chang.

Wang Bao came to help immediately. He was also very curious about this roasted whole muntjac.

After all, he had never even eaten a roasted whole lamb, so naturally he wanted to see the world.

Ji Chang directly asked Xu Rui to go to the blacksmith shop to customize a grill. It would be really difficult to make this thing without a grill.

The grill is also simple, just weld it with iron bars, and it can be made in an hour as long as you spend money.

Ji Chang also drew a simple rendering, and I believe the other party can complete it soon.

After peeling off the skin, Ji Chang went to deal with the skin.

Just leave the rest of the work to Wang Bao. You don't need to worry about it often.

By the time he fixed the suede skin on a leather bandage, Wang Bao had already cleaned the suede skin.

A whole muntjac weighs seventy or eighty pounds and looks no smaller than an ordinary goat.

Then Ji Chang took Wang Bao and started preparing the seasonings needed for today's barbecue.

For this seasoning, Ji Chang used at least five pounds of lard.

At the same time, he also used a lot of chili, pepper, etc.

All kinds of seasonings are put into the pot and stir-fried. It is fragrant and choking, which is very torture.

It's a pity that Ji Chang didn't have a rocket stove at this time, otherwise the situation would be much better if it was fried in the yard.

Not long after Ji Chang and Wang Bao worked together to get the seasoning ready, Xu Rui and Xu Ye drove the tricycle to pull the grill back.

Cut off the lower legs of the muntjac and fix the four thighs on the grill.

Buckle the two iron bars fixed above, and the entire muntjac is fixed on the grill.

"This grill is great. You can definitely use it in our cute tiger restaurant in the future." Xu Rui immediately thought of his own restaurant.

If the whole muntjac tastes good, you can bake it in the store.

Needless to say, it's certainly very attractive.

In the yard, Ji Chang had already built a fire pit with bricks. Because the bottom was a cement floor, he not only laid bricks, but also laid a layer of soil on top and bottom to insulate it from heat.

In this way, there is no need to worry about the cement exploding when heated.

Light a campfire, place the grill with the muntjac fixed on the bearings that pass through the two tripods, and you can easily rotate the entire grill.

"This grill is really good. You can make a small one and use it to grill fish!" Xu Rui is also a foodie and has eaten a lot of good food.

"Yes, it is indeed possible. It is best to use steel bars. If we can get food-grade stainless steel, it would be even better." Ji Chang looked at Xu Rui and said.

Stainless steel is relatively rare nowadays, and it is not something you can have if you want it.

Xu Rui nodded, feeling that it was indeed more suitable to use stainless steel to make a grill.

If iron is used, it will rust easily, and there will be no way for customers to eat it.

There is no need for Ji Chang to do the baking thing, everyone wants to try it.

What Ji often has to do is use a large brush to brush the seasonings.

Roasting a whole muntjac still takes time, and it should not be too close to the fire.

When it got dark, everyone felt very interesting sitting around the fire.

"Ji Chang, you Dongyou band haven't sang together for a long time, why don't you give us a piece?" Xu Rui said with interest.

It's really nice to sing and drink in this environment.

It just so happened that Xu Ye and the others came with musical instruments, so we could really get started.

"Okay, let me sing a few songs for you. Let's make a katyusha first." Ji Chang simply took a guitar.A high stool was moved and Ji Chang sat on it.

As soon as he sat down, Xu Ye took a cigarette and put it in Ji Chang's mouth.

Ji Chang was still charming when he smoked. In the past, many girls' eyes would go straight after seeing him.

Because he is not only cool with a cigarette in his mouth, but also has the feeling of a melancholic prince, which can inspire women's maternal love and want to take good care of Ji Chang.

Ji often sang in a very low voice. He sang in Russian. After all, it was just a song and it was relatively easy to learn.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted everyone's attention.

The humanoid subwoofer is talking about Ji Chang.

Moreover, his voice is very magnetic and really catches people's ears.

After the song ended, there was thunderous applause.

Because the singing is indeed very good and very emotional.

"Wang Bao, don't just listen to the music. Remember to brush up on the materials." Ji Chang reminded.

Then he started singing the second song.

Suddenly, it became their concert special.

The melodious singing and the enticing aroma of barbecue make people unable to calm down.

After singing seven or eight songs, the whole roasted muntjac was finally cooked.

He cut off a piece with a hunting knife, blew on it, and then handed it directly to Gu Shuyao's mouth.

Apart from the previous taste test, this is the first piece of grilled muntjac meat.

However, Ji Chang's behavior did not disappoint everyone because they were all used to it.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Ji Chang asked gently.

"Well, it's delicious. The skin is very crispy and the meat inside is tender and juicy. It's especially delicious!" Gu Shuyao said with a look of enjoyment.

"That's good, it means that today's roasted whole muntjac was a success." Ji Chang smiled happily and went to cut the muntjac meat again.

"It's so fragrant. This is the first time I've tasted such fragrant mutton meat. My family used to only stew it in soup, and it wasn't delicious at all!" Lu Zhixing couldn't help but exclaimed.

"It's really special and delicious. It turns out that barbecue can be so delicious. I mistakenly blamed it before." Zhang Pei was also impressed by the taste of roasted whole muntjac.

Everyone was extremely satisfied and happy after eating.

After all, this grilled muntjac tastes so good to everyone.

The meat is not only tender, but also extremely juicy, and the surface is grilled to an extremely crispy texture.

While eating barbecue and chatting, time flew by.

At around eight o'clock, Zhao Ming and his two employees also joined the group eating roasted whole muntjac.

After all, this muntjac has a lot of meat, and many of them really can't finish it.

Zhao Ming and the others happened to be hungry, so they killed many of them after they arrived.

If there was more to eat, Ji Chang asked everyone to take some back.

After all, everyone has a family, and everyone can let their family members taste these roasted whole muntjac.

Now Ji Chang, Gu Shuyao, Li Linan, and Wang Zhi live at home.

Wang Bao moved into Li's house, which was the house next door.

Separated by a river, the distance is also very close, making it convenient for Wang Bao to live.

He usually gets up at three o'clock in the morning to start making breakfast for the stall. Living in Ji Chang's place is not convenient because it will disturb Gu Shuyao, a pregnant woman who sleeps relatively lightly.

Zhao Ming and his two employees were not affected at all, and they all slept relatively deeply.

The next day, Ji Chang got up early.

According to the agreement, today he will take the members of the East Tour Band to the mountains for hunting.

There are more muntjacs there, and many people in the county and city go there to hunt muntjacs.

However, it was only at nine o'clock that the three members of the East Tour Band arrived one after another, along with Xu Rui.

So Ji Chang took a group of them into the mountains.

Each of them has a gun, and they are all [-]-year-olds.

These families are not short of money, nor are they short of guns.

After entering the mountains, they couldn't wait to shoot some birds when they encountered them.

To them, bullets are worthless.

Going into the mountains has one purpose, and that is to play.

Fortunately, his marksmanship was not very good and he didn't hit those birds.

This is why Ji Chang asked them to bring [-] big caps. If they brought shotguns or blunderbuss, these birds would not be able to survive.

A troll can even take away the devil's prime minister, let alone these little birds.

"I just said that hunting is boring, and the recoil of shooting is so strong that my shoulders hurt and I have to apply medicine again at night." Lu Zhixing sat on the ground and complained with a depressed look.

"That's because you didn't hit anything. Look at the rabbit I hit, hehe." Zhang Pei mentioned a rabbit that he hit when a blind cat encountered a dead mouse more than ten minutes ago.

"Brother Zhang, it's not interesting for you to do this. I didn't hit it, but I also think it's fun." Xu Ye held the gun and prepared to aim at the two goshawks in the sky.

"Don't fight, this is the goshawk I raised." Ji Chang quickly moved Xu Ye's gun away to avoid accidentally injuring his own goshawk.

"You also raised an eagle?" Xu Ye looked at Ji Chang in shock.

"No, otherwise how could I have caught the prey so easily?" Ji Chang said in a pretentious manner.

At the same time, he stretched out his hand in the air and blew a whistle.

The two goshawks immediately gave up circling, swooped down directly towards Ji Chang, and then landed in Ji Chang's hands.

"You're so cool, you even have an eagle." Zhang Pei said with envy.

Now, everyone knows why Ji Chang can often catch prey.

Because the sky has eyes!

"Let's go, with them we can find the muntjacs." After Ji Chang released the two goshawks, he was ready to take them to hunt muntjacs.

If they don't fight one back, they will definitely not leave.

With two goshawks helping to search, Ji Chang and the others quickly found a group of muntjac.

Yes, it is indeed a herd of muntjacs.

Ji Chang took a look and saw that there were more than a dozen muntjacs in total.

There is a lot of pasture in this forest, which is very suitable for muntjacs to survive.

At the same time, there are no ferocious beasts, so the number of muntjacs is relatively large.

They are very alert, and it is not easy for ordinary hunters to hunt them.

Especially during the day, they will be more vigilant.

It's much easier at night, but other hunters are unlikely to have regular night vision.

Therefore, although there are many muntjacs here, they are not often shot by hunters.
