Chapter 101 The Wolves
Shi Xingzhou stretched out his hand to signal: "This wooden stick is long enough. Fusheng and I will carry the wood. Star, you are responsible for pushing it to the car."

Ye Fusheng held the stick and shouted one, two, three with Shi Xingzhou, and the pine tree was slowly lifted up.

"It's not high enough, come again." Tantai Star pushed, and the pine wood hit the car body.

"One, two, three." Ye Fusheng shouted, and the two of them raised their head another five centimeters.

"We've got it, but how can we make the pine wood roll in?" Tantai star asked.

"Use the stick to push it inward. Can you be any more stupid?" Shi Xingzhou yelled angrily.

"The principle of leverage." Ye Fusheng suddenly realized.

"How about my method? A pine tree grows in a few minutes." Shi Xingzhou patted the wood proudly.

"At this speed, one car can be loaded in half an hour. Two trips are very fast." Ye Fusheng also gave a thumbs up.

"We still have to install branches. Branches are more difficult to install than pine." Shi Xingzhou pointed to the branches with eight twists and turns.

Ye Fusheng asked with a smile: "It was completed before midnight. Do you two have anything to do tomorrow?"

"I didn't hold it in well." Tantai star tapped Ye Fusheng with her finger.

"Definitely, I think his family has started laying the foundation with a sledgehammer." Shi Xingzhou nodded in agreement.

"Good thing. I want to pave the floor with bluestone in my house. It is said that there are many bluestones in the threshing floor." Ye Fusheng chuckled.

"You're a real dog, I'm telling you you didn't hold it in! The bluestones in the threshing floor are used by everyone to press down the rainproof cloth. Do you understand?" The Tantai star said with contempt on his face.

"I'll just use a little to pave the ground. It's as big as a piece of bluestone, and I'll only spend 80 yuan." Yefu Shengyun replied calmly.

Shi Xingzhou snorted: "No, my family still has to move Qingshi for seven or eight yuan. I have to watch you, a thief."

"Isn't it all done while you're moving?" Ye Fusheng winked.

"Why don't you look for me in Qianzhong Mountain? Can you stop causing trouble in the threshing floor?" Shi Xingzhou sighed.

"I haven't seen any decent bluestones in Qianzhong Mountain!" Ye Fusheng spread his hands helplessly.

"You are not looking for the right place. These mountains are all earth mountains. Over there is the stone mountain, and there is only one stone mountain." Shi Xingzhou explained.

"How much? Can you pick it up there?" Ye Fusheng asked doubtfully.

"It's terrible, all the small stones have been taken away, and the remaining stones are as tall as a person, and there are even stones as big as a house." Shi Xingzhou replied.

Ye Fusheng was angry: "Then you fart? How can I get such a big stone back?"

"Smash it with a big hammer." Shi Xingzhou made a swinging motion with a hammer.

"Go away, I'm going to the threshing floor. It doesn't matter if I get 80 or [-] yuan." Ye Fusheng said.

"You are a thief and a robber." Shi Xingzhou shouted.

"I didn't steal anything from you, so don't make any noise, just fill up the branches and go back." Ye Fusheng rolled his eyes.

"This Thousand Layers Mountain is really scary at night, with all kinds of ghost noises." Shi Xingzhou shuddered.

"What are you afraid of? I found that pine wood is very fragrant. It would be great to make furniture." Ye Fusheng said with a smile.

"Our village uses pine wood to make furniture. How do you make your furniture? I am also a carpenter. Do you want me to come?" Shi Xingzhou asked.

"I bought it...!" Ye Fusheng suddenly realized that the bed can be made by itself!
"Buy it? Are you sick?" Shi Xingzhou exclaimed.

"Just buy it. Do you think it's easy to make it yourself?" said the Tantai star.

"You're being taken advantage of! Even if it's a little troublesome to do it yourself, you might save a lot of money." Shi Xingzhou sighed.

"I didn't expect this. Buy whatever you need and make it a habit." Ye Fusheng touched his nose.

"You talk about how rich you are, but why don't I know what you bought?" Shi Xingzhou said sarcastically.

"You don't know a lot of things, are you just pretending?" Ye Fusheng looked at the car.

"The branches can't be loaded back into the truck, so I picked the thicker ones to load into the truck and carry them for burning." Shi Xingzhou replied.

"The carriage can also be decorated. Tie it up with rope so it won't fall off." Tantai star suggested.

"That's right, although the pine wood is not easy to load into the truck, the branches are fine." Shi Xingzhou nodded hurriedly.

Half an hour later, Ye Fusheng looked at the sturdy wood and nodded.

"My bullock cart is leading the way, you drive the cart to follow, and turn on the flashlight." Shi Xingzhou shouted.

"Okay, slow down, this is going to overturn. Damn it." Ye Fusheng was a little worried.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm here to help you. If the car overturns, you have to accompany me, Daqingniu." Shi Xingzhou roared.

"I also like this green bull. Why don't you go into the mountains to look for it someday?" Ye Fusheng suggested.

"You can pull him down. Is catching someone alive the same as beating him to death?" Shi Xingzhou said disdainfully.

"That's true. If you can only catch people alive, you can only rely on hounds, and four hounds are a bit too few." Ye Fusheng felt a little regretful.

"It's not that they are young, they are destined to die. Big green bulls come in groups. Although the cows are docile, the big bulls can be very ferocious." Shi Xingzhou replied.

"How ferocious? Not only do we have hounds, the three of us can also use a rope to tie the cow's head to a tree, and the job is done." Ye Fusheng gesticulated.

"What a whim, if you dare to get close to Qingniu, I'm sure your brain will fart." Shi Xingzhou said disdainfully.

"Are you stupid? Humans are intelligent creatures. Are you as tough-headed as a green ox? You're too stupid to fart!" Ye Fusheng was speechless.

"Okay, you are awesome. If you have the ability, catch one and show me." Shi Xingzhou said loudly. "Don't worry, there will always be a chance. Don't be greedy when the time comes." Ye Fusheng said with a smile.

"By the way, when are we going to go into the mountains? I haven't hunted before." Tantai Star asked.

"You should calm down for a while. It's okay to take you to Shangdianzi. What will you do when you go into the mountains?" Shi Xingzhou said sarcastically.

"I will give someone a head." Ye Fusheng answered with a loud laugh.

"Can you two be one person? Don't you just have two dogs? What's there to be proud of?" the Tantai star said dissatisfied.

"You should pass your father's test first! You also know how many people die in Qianzhong Mountain every year. It's not appropriate for you to just dive in without knowing anything." Ye Fusheng shook his head.

"What Fu Sheng means is that you have nothing to do and weigh yourself." Shi Xingzhou laughed innocently.

"What the hell, I'm buying a shotgun, isn't it just 300 yuan?" the Tantai star said loudly.

"It's up to you. Anyway, your life is yours. Don't count on others in the mountains." Ye Fusheng said solemnly.

"What do you mean? You just run away and ignore me when I'm in danger?" Tantai star's eyes widened.

"Of course I don't care on the surface, but Qianzhong Mountain is densely populated with trees and weeds. What if an animal attacks you directly?" Ye Fusheng asked back.

"Oh, you mean you can't rescue me in time, so I have to rely on myself to resist?" Tantai Star frowned.

"Smart boy, generally speaking, there are one pig, two bears and three tigers, plus poisonous snakes and leopards. These animals will actively attack humans." Ye Fusheng explained.

"There are wolves, don't you remember the tragedy the year before last?" Shi Xingzhou said.

"I definitely don't know." Ye Fusheng shook his head.

"You mean the July [-]th murder case of the year before last?" Tantai star asked uncertainly.

"Yes, it's a tragedy!" Shi Xingzhou shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"July [-]th? Tell me about the murder case. Was it a wolf attacking someone?" Ye Fusheng asked.

"It's not July [-], but seven women died in July." Tantai star explained.

"Seven people died at once?" Ye Fusheng frowned.

"Well, eight women went into the mountains to pick mushrooms and encountered a pack of wolves. Seven were killed and one was injured." Tantai star replied.

"Didn't you say that the outside of Qianzhong Mountain is very safe?" Ye Fusheng asked.

"It's okay on the outside. This group of women relied on their strength to go deeper into the mountains. Unfortunately, they encountered a pack of wolves." Tantai star smacked his lips.

"The mushrooms in the depths of the mountain are different from those in the outer areas? Why go inside?" Ye Fusheng asked doubtfully.

Tantai star said:
"That's not true. Mushrooms are all the same, but there are also many people picking mushrooms in the surrounding areas. Even in our Jiuliuzhuang, we have hundreds of people picking mushrooms."

"The outer area is so big that even 1000 people can't pick it all. And mushrooms are not only found in Qianzhong Mountain, but also in the surrounding woods." Ye Fusheng shook his head speechlessly.

"There are other villages, and with so many people picking them non-stop, we can't pick any number of mushrooms." Tantai Star shook his head.

"There are eight people, and one is still alive. Did she tell you the whole story?" Ye Fusheng asked curiously.

"I really didn't pay attention to this, Shi Xingzhou, do you know?" Tantai Star shouted to the bullock cart.

Shi Xingzhou turned around:
"I know, the process is very simple. They simply walked in. There were a lot of mushrooms along the way. Although they only brought a bamboo basket, they also brought a snakeskin bag as a backup."

"They were greedy. They picked and packed bags all the way. Think about that big snakeskin bag, how many mushrooms would be packed in? So this group of people went deeper and deeper."

"Later, they sat down to rest on a pile of rubble, and a group of wolves appeared out of nowhere. From what the survivors recalled, there should have been eleven wolves."

"First, two women were suddenly attacked, with blood splattering everywhere. The other six people froze in place, and then there were screams."

"Humans, the first time they encounter danger is to run away. Wolves will instinctively pursue their prey. If they don't run away, they might be fine."

"In this run, five more people died. Only one was lucky. She was not pursued by the wolves. She was really lucky!"

Ye Fusheng scratched his ears. It seemed that it was not safe to raise six hounds. After these four hounds were formed, he would get a few more. His life was at stake, and his fortune depended on this mountain.

"Your house is still lit." Shi Xingzhou pointed to the tent.

"Are we here? The branches are unloaded next to the tent, and the pine trees are unloaded next to the bricks." Ye Fusheng said.

"Wang Wang Wang."

Two hounds ran over like fools, wagging their tails around Ye Fusheng.

"Husband, are you back?" Mu Xianer opened the tent, revealing a small head to look outside.

"Well, what time is it?" Ye Fusheng asked.

"A little after eight o'clock." Mu Xian'er replied.

"Brothers, hurry up and unload the truck. We will definitely be finished before eleven o'clock." Ye Fusheng shouted.

"Unload the truck quickly, it only takes a minute. Watch me perform for you." Shi Xingzhou said proudly.

"Tch, what's the point? Isn't it just to separate the cattle and the carriage?" Tantai star said disdainfully.

"You haven't finished speaking yet. Without the cow, the car will roll over backwards. I'm using the cow to pull the rope, and the branches will fall to the ground safely." Shi Xingzhou replied.

"Hurry up, we've both finished unloading half the truckload of branches and are going to unload the pine wood." Tantai Star shouted.

"You are just trying to be clever. The pine wood that is so high under the branch can fall down with just one push. All you need is your hands. There is no technical content at all." Shi Xingzhou replied.
