Chapter 249 Trap
I used to think about going up the mountain to get some dead trees and go home to plant fungus. Now I see this hairy wolfberry tree just right, so I don’t have to plant bacteria myself, just chop it back and put it at home.
But thinking about the end, Liu Junhao finally gave up his mind. The tree was too big, and even if it could be brought down, it would probably take a lot of effort to transport it out of the mountain. I would rather stay in the mountain to make a mark and lead Wukong to come in the first half and one month.
Thinking of the monkey breaking the fungus, he started to think about it again. He used to think that he was just a foodie, but now it seems that as long as he uses it properly, he is definitely a good helper. Going up the mountain to pick pine towers, picking walnuts or making persimmons, etc.
"Liu Junhao, do you sell your fungus? I want to buy some?" At this time, a tourist who was envious of his eyes asked.
Before the New Year, I had collected a lot of my own fungus, which was enough for the New Year. However, Zhang's mother had already explained that several old sisters wanted some wild fungus.
Thinking of this, he could only say sorry. He said, "Haha, if you don't sell it, someone has greeted me a long time ago."
Although I didn’t encounter any of the pheasants, I got a lot of harvest this time. I just had fungus, and I should reward the monkeys when I went back.
Although it was sunny, it was a short time during the winter day, and in just a short while, the sun passed over the mountain ridge. Liu Junhao saw that it was getting late and was about to pack up and lead everyone down the mountain.
I never thought that a few tourists were interested and had no intention of going down the mountain now. He had to explain carefully, and then lead a few children out with Zhang Qian.
"Grandma, grandma, guess what good things we got into the mountain?" Xiao Zeyu was already shouting at the top of his throat from a distance.
"Have you beat the pheasant?" Hearing the movement, Professor Zhao and others walked out of the yard.
"Did you see, we picked a bag of fungus..."
"It's not us, it's a monkey"
"Thanks to Wukong..." Several children began to show their skills in a long and sarcastic manner.
When Zhang's mother saw them getting so many fungus back after they entered the mountain, she was very happy and praised the little guys very much.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Qian rested for a while and started cooking. Liu Junhao went back to the house and brought two handfuls of dates to share the food for everyone. Of course, he also caught a lot of the monkey, which was a reward for this guy.
In the evening, Zhang Ma wanted to use the steamed bean buns for the New Year, so it was almost eight o'clock when the meal was ready.
As soon as they picked up their jobs, Liu Junqi's shout came from the door.
"What's the matter?" Liu Junhao hurriedly walked out of the kitchen with the bowl, and saw two people standing at the door.
"Are you a few people following you up the mountain in the afternoon? There are still two of them who haven't come back at this point. I'm not here to your house."
"Can you open it if you haven't come back?" Liu Junhao was also stunned. When he came out of the mountain, he clearly told them to come back early. Although there are many mountains near Liujiagou, the altitude is not very high. Generally speaking, it is difficult for people to get lost when they enter the mountain.
"It can't be done" Before Liu Junqi could speak, a tourist next to him was already speaking anxiously.
Liu Junhao remembered him. In the afternoon, he and the couple went up the mountain together, but why did he come out alone?
After asking, I found out that part of the reason was that he was still there. Seeing that his monkeys had picked so many wild fungus, the couple immediately became interested and wanted to search around to find some.
So, several tourists parted ways. The couple thought that the nearby fungus must have been lighting up, so they set out to look deep in the forest.
At that time, they were also afraid of getting lost, so they discussed using their mobile phone to contact each other. Before breaking up, they could all be connected.
When this person came back, he saw that it was getting late, so he called them, but who knew that it didn't get through. He didn't care much at that time, thinking that it was because the mobile phone signal in the mountains was too poor.
But as he saw that it was 10 o'clock in the evening and before he could see the two of them coming out, he became anxious and hurriedly asked the owner to discuss the solution.
Liu Junqi was also shocked when he heard that the guests had not come back from the mountain. He originally wanted to go into the mountain to look for it immediately, but the guests could not name the mountain road, and only knew to walk all the way north.
I heard that they were with Liu Junhao in the afternoon, and Liu Junqi turned around and thought about it, so he brought someone over to ask where they were separated.
"At that time, we were separated in the area of Tuobei Mountain. After they separated, they continued to walk into the mountain. No one knew where they were now." Liu Junhao was naturally familiar with the situation of the nearby mountains.
I am familiar with it, but I know a general route. The other side of Tuobei Mountain is relatively remote, and the villagers generally don’t go much, so there is no mountain road to follow. If he hadn’t been the monkey leading the way this time, he wouldn’t have been there.
After hearing what the tourists said, Liu Junhao was quite puzzled. The couple was really brave. They dared to break into the deep mountains as it was dark. They didn't bring any weapons when they went up the mountain. What if they encountered wild boars or something?
When Liu Junqi heard that he didn't know the specific location, he became even more anxious and was carrying a hand lantern to go into the mountain to look for it immediately.
"You will definitely not be able to find it if you go alone, so you still have to wait and call a few people together." After this happened, Liu Junhao naturally couldn't continue eating. He put the bowl and asked Zhang Qian to dial it to Ermazi through his cell phone.
"Yes, yes, I'm so anxious." Liu Junqiu remembered that there were mountains in dozens of miles around him, and he was not able to reach the mountain alone, and he might not be able to find anyone even if he ran off his legs.
After a while, Ermazi called out six or seven people from the village. Everyone was holding a hand lantern and leading their own dogs beside them.
Liu Junhao was no exception. After putting his little leather collar on, he felt uneasy, so he borrowed Professor Zhao's little yellow dog.
Fortunately, I trained Xiaopi to reflect the smell when I was fine before. Liu Junqi's family had the backpack of the couple, so he specially let Xiaopi smell it.
The couple disappeared for only half a day, and the smell dissipated. This was much better than the time when Ermazi's family lost wild boars, so Liu Junhao was not too worried about not being able to find them. He was worried about something unexpected. Although there were no cliffs or something on the mountain, there were many stone pedal nests three or five meters high. If they were anxious and panicked, they would definitely fall to death.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask Xiaopi to speed up. Although Professor Zhao's little yellow dog was on the battlefield for the first time, he also learned well.
The two dogs walked forward "bangbang", followed by several people watching the road with their hands lanterns. The sparrows, pheasants and night birds living in the mountains were occasionally startled and flew past the tops of the trees. Further away, the sound of "gudu...gudu...meow..." should be the sound of night owls.
The two dogs were walking right, and they walked straight towards Huobei Mountain.
"Woom..." Suddenly Xiaopi started calling loudly in front of him, and then the little yellow dog began to bark wildly.
"What's wrong?" Several people hurriedly shone the hand lanterns over.
I saw a few black things appearing in the weeds next to me. These guys' eyes emitted a faint light under the light, which suddenly looked very scary.
"Wild Boar!" Ermazi could see at a glance what those dizzy guys were.
These wild boars were suddenly shined by strong light in the darkness, and their eyes became temporarily blind. Therefore, when they saw everyone, they did not escape immediately, but instead formed a circle and screamed.
The dogs behind quickly moved and quickly surrounded them.
When the dog was barked, the wild boar probably came back to his senses and began to escape in scattered ways. Xiaopi wanted to chase him, but was stopped by Liu Junhao. If it were normal, he would definitely not let the wild boar run away, but now this matter is no longer important. The important thing is to find the missing tourists as soon as possible. The longer the time is delayed, the greater the accident.
After letting the wild boars go, they continued to move forward. The mountain road was difficult to walk at night, and it took them nearly two hours to find the furry wolfberry tree they saw in the afternoon.
After finding this place, Xiaopi sniffed in the grass for a while, then turned his head and continued to run towards the dense forests in the northwest.
While they walked, the tourist called, but unfortunately, he didn't receive a signal until his phone ran out of power.
Liu Junhao followed behind and became more and more puzzled. He remembered that it was almost dark when he came out of the mountain. These tourists didn't know what they thought, but they dared to continue walking into the mountain.
The weeds on the northern slope of Tuobei Mountain are very thick, most of which are more than half a person deep, so it is very difficult for everyone to walk. Less than two meters apart, Xiaopi's body only appears and disappears among the weeds.
Fortunately, this guy is smart and turns around from time to time to remind him of the direction.
After walking for more than ten minutes, they plunged into the dense forest.
At this time, Xiaopi suddenly shouted and rushed forward. The little yellow dog reacted slightly, but he rushed forward soon.
"Have you found someone?" Ermazi was delighted when he saw the abnormal situation of the two dogs.
"It should be." Liu Junhao followed quickly, without paying attention, and his face was hit by a branch, which hurt so much.
"Help, help, is there anyone?" A faint call came from the left at this time.
"On there!" Several people rushed over with the dogs.
"Hiss..." They were shocked when they saw the couple's position and hurriedly asked if they had any problems.
They actually fell into the trap. When hunting was not prohibited in the mountains near Liujiagou, people often dig traps in the forest to hunt. However, they usually dig holes less than two meters deep, mainly to capture wild wolves and grass crocodiles. The bottom of the trap is covered with branches that are cut into sharp spears, and wild beasts fall into it, and ten of them are tied into hedgehogs.
This trap is different. The lanterns dug are particularly deep. It seems that this is probably used by hunting bears in the past. Before the liberation of this mountain, there were many bears in the village. Every autumn harvest season, groups of bears were gone down the mountain to dig sweet potatoes and pick corn on the cobs to eat. In the early liberation period, gun management was not strict, and many hunters went up the mountain to hunt bears with hunting guns. The highest record of bear hunting was in 1973, and a total of six bears were hunted. At that time, this incident was still in the countryside. Since then, bears have gradually decreased. Although gun bans began to be banned in the 1980s, few people have hunted bears since then, and no one has seen them in the past decade.
Two years ago, someone's corn field was destroyed in a mess. Some people said they saw a bear. Later, an expert came to check it out and concluded that it was the damage caused by monkeys.
