Chapter 98: Hunting in the Mountains (2)

The route I took today is not the same as the last time Zhang Lang entered the mountain.

It turned out that the wild wolf on that line was destroyed by Zhang Lang, and the wild boar was almost caught by him.

The tiger was beaten to death by the blind bear, and he beaten away. Apart from the wild boars in the wild boar valley, there were basically no big animals.

Zhang Lang had never walked this line, but heard from the old man that there was a mountain temple for another day, and I don’t know when or who built it.

Hunters who walk this line into the mountain will first go to the mountain temple to pray for the mountain god's blessing.

The destination of Zhang Lang and his friends this trip was the mountain temple in the deep mountains.

There is a saying that the horses are running to death on the mountain. When everyone arrived at the cabin, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

While pushing open the door of the wooden house, Zhang Lang turned around and said to Director Tong and the others: "Several squad leader, let's stay in this wooden house for one night today and continue on the road tomorrow."

Director Tong followed into the wooden house, went to the kang, and said with a smile: "You are the guide, let's all follow your arrangements!"

Zhang Lang took the initiative to take on the task of making a fire and cooking. "Several squad leaders and two experts, everyone should take a break first, I'll prepare lunch."

It’s not okay to take the initiative. Except for an inexperienced Duan Hu, he is the youngest, so who will not do it?

"Huzi, Heizi, Lao Hong is going to catch a few pheasants and hares and come back!"

"Wang, Wang!" Hu Zi shouted softly twice, turned around and crawled into the old forest with a group of dogs.

"Brother, what do you think I'll do?" Duan Hu's excitement had not yet passed, and he didn't know how tired he was, so he took the initiative to ask for helping Zhang Lang's work.

Duan Hu satisfied Zhang Lang just this. Although he came from the imperial city, he did not have the arrogance of the people in the capital at all. He had nothing wrong with being a little angry except for being a little anxious.

"You go with me to fetch water with the bucket." Zhang Lang didn't be polite to him and directly ordered.

"Okay!" Duan Hu agreed, carrying a bucket in one hand, and happily followed Zhang Lang behind him.

There are also some considerations in the construction of wooden houses. First, it is necessary to avoid wind and snow. Secondly, it is necessary to get close to the water source to facilitate water withdrawal.

Sure enough, I didn't walk far away and saw a small pond. The drizzle of mountain spring water seeped out from Shiya, and gathered into a small pond under Shiya.

As for whether the water can be drunk, there is no need to consider it. This is not a forest in the south. Another thing is that since a wooden house is built here, the safety of the water source has been verified long ago.

It is definitely not empty talk to beat a roe deer and scoop fish. In this small pond, you can clearly see groups of small wild fish swimming around.

"Brother Huzi, I'll make an iron pot for you to stew wild fish for you at noon!" Zhang Lang took off his clothes, walked down the pond, and started catching fish.

Duan Hu also took off his clothes and was about to go into the water. Zhang Lang hurriedly stopped, "The water here is too cold, so don't come down, just pick up the fish on the shore."

The sunshine in late autumn is pretty good, but after all, it is already late autumn, and the water temperature is a bit low. Duan Hu's level means he will be freezing, so he can't help others.

"Okay!" Although Duan Hu also wanted to go into the water to try the fun of catching fish, he was still a little self-aware. After measuring it, he resisted the temptation of catching fish.

Going up trees to touch birds and going down river to catch fish is a necessary skill for boys who grew up in the countryside. The fish in the mountains have never been frightened and are not afraid of people at all. When Zhang Lang got into the water, the fish didn't know how to run and circled around his legs.

Zhang Lang would definitely not let go of such an opportunity. The hand speed he had practiced was a bit hard to keep up with as Zhang Lang's arms entered the water again and again, and the fastest Duan Hu could not keep up with the fish pickup.

"Okay! Brother Wolf has enough! The bucket is full!" Duan Hu shouted on the shore soon after.

Zhang Lang couldn't stand it anymore. Anyone who had climbed the mountain and came into contact with the spring water knew that the temperature of the spring water that had just seeped out of the mountain was very low, which was seven or eight degrees.

Hearing Duan Hu's shout, Zhang Lang stopped insisting and slowly walked ashore.

Standing on the shore, I started to move my hands and feet, practiced twice in a row, and stopped until I saw sweat on my body, wiped my clothes dry, put on my clothes, shoes and socks.

Let the body sweat to expel the cold air that has just entered the body. Many people have arthritis caused by not paying attention to it and the cold air entering the body.

Touching on his body, a knife appeared in Zhang Lang's hand, squatting on the ground and starting to stab fish.

Duan Hu was stunned. When he took off his clothes just now, he didn't notice Zhang Lang carrying a knife, "Brother, my dear brother, did you take out the knife from there?"

"This? Secret!" Zhang Langyangyang said with a smile on the knife in his hand.

"Brother, let me teach you!" Duan Hu pestered Zhang Lang and refused to give up.

"Go, go, and practice your gossip. These are all tricks!" Zhang Lang was annoyed by the pester and began to wave his hand to kill others.

It’s not that Zhang Lang is stingy, but that he is not easy to pass on his skills. If he passes the hidden sword technique to Duan Hu privately, he will be obsessed with these side sects and delay his kung fu, he may not be a human inside or outside.

Scrape the fish scales, clean the internal organs, and clean the fish body. Zhang Lang's movements are very fast, and he will be stabbed in a bucket of fish in a short while.

One bucket puts fish and the other bucket holds water. Zhang Lang and Duan Hu each carried a piece of wood back to the wooden house.

"Why did it take so long to get water?" Director Tong and the others were a little anxious.

"Oh! It turns out that I'm going to catch fish, and I don't say I'm calling us!" Zhang Changhua saw the fish in the bucket and complained that Zhang Lang would not take him to catch fish.

"Squad Leader Zhang, I also saw fish in the pond when I caught fish. I was just thinking about it. I will make a stew of wild fish for everyone, and the fish soup is soaked in the pole! That smells so good. You must still want to eat it after eating it!" Zhang Lang explained with a smile.

"Okay, okay! You hurry up and make fish soup, we will pick these pheasants and hares." Director Ding urged him, chewing the wild fruits he had just picked on the road.

After saying that, Director Tong, Zhang Changhua and the other two picked up the prey they caught by the tigers and walked out of the wooden house.

"It's done right away! Brother Huzi, please go to the pond and brush these bowls and chopsticks!" Zhang Lang ordered Duan Hu while starting to brush the pot.

The pot was originally clean, but it hadn't been used for a while and needed to be cleaned.

After lighting the fire, when the pot was hot, Zhang Lang dug out a large piece of oil from the wooden pour she carried with him and put it in the pot.

Big oil is animal oil extracted from pork fat. In the past, I ate this in rural areas and cooked it was fragrant.

The method of stewing wild fish in an iron pot is simple. When the oil is hot, add chopped green onion and star anise pepper seasoning to fry it out, then put the fish in, add water, wait a few times for the water to boil, add chopped bars and burn it.

"Wolf cub, see what we do!" Seeing that Zhang Lang had finished his work, Section Chief Wang and Mayor Li came over and asked.
