Chapter 298 It’s time to let them have a good meal

The day passed quickly. Looking at the three bald men who were still out of reach, Lu Lu saw a small rock cliff next to it, with the faint sound of running water.

This is halfway up the mountain. Even on the ridge, there are many places where you can’t walk at all. You can only go around, and you’re halfway up the mountain again.

Lu Lu walked towards the stone cliff and saw water droplets constantly leaking out from the gaps in the stone cliff. They fell drop by drop and formed a crystal clear small pool at the foot of the stone cliff. A small stream of water overflowed from the pool and headed towards the cliff.

It trickles down below.

Perhaps because of the abundant water, aquatic plants and vines are becoming more and more prosperous where the small ditch flows.

Lu Lu went to the small puddle below and spit some saliva. The saliva fell into the water and spread quickly.

"This water is drinkable!"

Lu Lu looked around again. There were no poisonous weeds, but there were traces of small animals. Lu Lu also saw the hoof prints of sika deer. Animals also eat this water, so there is no problem. He turned back to several people and said:

"Just find a place to pitch a tent nearby. We'll spend the night here today."

A little trick is to use your saliva to test whether the water is drinkable.

This water comes out of the cracks in the rocks, so it belongs to the source, so there is no big problem. However, in this deep mountain and old forest, there is no guarantee that this clear-looking water pool will be fine. There is a thick layer of rotten leaves around it, which can easily breed bacteria.

If you eat it randomly, you may have problems.

Using a saliva test, although there is no 100% guarantee that there will be no problem, at least it can be regarded as an insurance.

After washing his face with the water in the small puddle, Lu Lu returned to the pool, drank some water, and took a sip. The water was sweet and refreshing, and it was still good water.

Along the way, everyone was hungry and thirsty. They came towards the waterhole one after another, sticking their buttocks out or sipping water with their hands, and drank as much as they could.

Jiang Zewei was more particular. He picked an oak leaf, rolled it into a small bucket, scooped out water, and drank a lot.

Yuanbao and the other six dogs had already moved downstairs, each had chosen a spot, stretched out its head and licked the water. They were also very thirsty.

After taking a breather, several people led the horses to a place with good water and grass, put long reins on them, and tied them to trees to let them feed themselves.

Lu Lu ignored Zhui Feng and allowed it to move freely. Even if it wandered far away, he didn't worry. Anyway, with a whistle, it would run back immediately.

On the slightly flat forest grassland on the slope, a few people quickly propped up the tent, got a lot of pine needles from the feet of the red pine trees, and spread it inside to prevent moisture. After laying the bedding, they arranged for Jiang Zewei to go in and rest.

It's enough for a few young adults at the end of the day, let alone this elderly man.

Without Lu Lu's instructions, Chen Xiuqing quickly collected dry firewood nearby and started the fire to prepare millet.

Millet is a staple food often brought to the mountains by herders. It is easy to preserve and simple to prepare. The key is to survive hunger.

"Qingzi, take care of Uncle Jiang and the horse. Let's go get some meat. We'll be back soon!"

You can get some meat to replenish your food and reduce the food consumption, so you can stay in the mountains longer.

Looking at the situation today, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to find Uncle Tianxing's tomb.

After traveling such a long distance, you should gain something, otherwise you will be full.

Looking for Bangchui will definitely take a lot of time, and you will have to save some money.

"No problem...Brother Lu!"

Chen Xiuqing agreed wholeheartedly.

This is his advantage. Although he is not very good at hunting and he is a bit naive, he is absolutely practical in doing things. He works hard and rushes to do it, and he does not care about it and has no complaints.

It would be easy for such a person to be fooled if he fell in front of people with ulterior motives, but with Lu Lu, how could he suffer a loss?

Lu Lu looked at Zhao Yongke and Liang Kangbo: "This mountain is not as good as the outside. Let's not separate. Let's go out and search together. Whatever we hit will count. For safety reasons."

The more people we have, the more we can take care of each other. Even if we hit less things, it won't be a problem. People's safety is the most important thing.

With someone in mind, Lu Lu was also very cautious.

As the saying goes, sail with caution and sail forever.

Zhao Yongke and Liang Kangbo looked at each other, smiled slightly, and nodded towards Lu Lu.

The three of them each took out their guns and were about to set off. Yuanbao, who was resting on the grass, suddenly stood up and looked into the ditch diagonally below, and then let out a fierce whine.

"There are wild boars down there...it looks like we won't have to run far tonight."

Lu Lu said happily: "Let's go down and have a look!"

Liang Kangbo asked with great interest: "How did you know that what Yuan Bao found was a wild boar?"

"Of course it was Yuan Bao who told me. After all, he has been with me for several months. After getting along with him, I can still hear a lot of things from his barks." Lu Lu said with a smile: "This dog is very smart."

"It's really serious. When you find prey, you just whisper a warning and don't bark. You dogs are so insidious. No wonder the harvest is so good when hunting!"

Liang Kangbo said enviously: "Unlike those of mine, they only bark wildly when they find any movement. Once they are released, they have to rush over several ridges to catch them. Often when they find them, the wild animals are all gone."

He ran away. Don’t say anything, okay... stay a while, let’s have a three-way competition of marksmanship?”

He had known Lu Lu for so long, and he also knew that Lu Lu had gained a lot after arriving in the mountains. He also knew from his son Liang Qiming that Lu Lu had a unique skill with a slingshot. He had only seen the real marksmanship once when he met a lone wolf.

.

Liang Kangbo knew that Lu Lu's marksmanship was very good, but he didn't know to what extent.

For a moment, Liang Kangbo was quite curious.

They are both hunters from two neighboring villages, so there is still a bit of a comparison mentality.

It's not as good as a dog, but it should be slightly better in terms of marksmanship.

By the way, I also got to see the level of the Oroqen hunters from the mountains.

"OK!"

Lu Lu smiled and said that in his heart, Liang Kangbo was a capable person, so there was no need to hide him.

Hearing this suggestion, Zhao Yongke shook his head directly: "If I want to compete with you two, I won't care. I don't want to feel uncomfortable running after him knowing that he is hunting a tiger. Anyway, I can't compare with his shooting skills."

Um?

Liang Kangbo was slightly stunned.

Oroqen hunters have always been proud and confident when it comes to hunting, but they are willing to be defeated...wait, tiger hunting?

"Have you ever hit Big Claw?" Liang Kangbo asked in surprise: "When did you hit him? Why didn't you hear any news?"

"My mother and I followed him on the way down from the mountain. A big claw came out of the mountain. It destroyed several Wuli Leng and injured a few lives. That big claw was shot by Brother Lu.

He dropped it, and while he was running, I, my brother Lu, and my brother Lu fired at the same time, and he shot me in the forehead and killed me."

After Zhao Yongke finished speaking, he smiled at Liang Kangbo: "The tiger hit my wife Unakan when it pounced on me... I think my marksmanship is not bad, but compared to Brother Lu, I am still far behind. Even I

Amma was also surprised."

Liang Kangbo looked at Lu Lu blankly: "Brother, you hide it really deep."

"It's just luck... Don't tell anyone, I don't want it to spread everywhere." Lu Lu said seriously.

"Okay, okay... don't say anything."

Liang Kangbo nodded and said bitterly: "It's really incomparable. I've seen the big claw once before, but I didn't dare to shoot. What's the comparison? Will you accept me as an apprentice? My son Liang Qiming's attitude towards you

Slingshot is in your heart, so let him learn marksmanship and hunting with you!"

Lu Lu immediately shook his head.

Liang Kangbo sighed with some disappointment.

"Brother Liang, it's not that I don't want to teach, but it's useless if you ask your child to learn this from me. If he has this skill, it's better to let him study hard. He's going to hunt in the mountains. He won't be able to do it for a few years.

It would be more useful to learn some knowledge." Lu Lu advised.

"What's the use of learning those things? You can't make a living..." Liang Kangbo curled his lips and said, "You just have to know how to write your own name."

"You can't say that. Look at those forest farms, farms, and those who are in charge. No one is knowledgeable. You know that I come from outside and have seen more.

Believe me, within a few years, our country will undergo earth-shaking changes. At our age, we can still do this, but if it were Qiming and others, there would be no use for them.

Learn some knowledge and have an iron job in the future. You don’t have to go through the wind and rain every day like us. If you are not careful, you will leave it in a pile without even knowing it... Forget it! At least you will be safe."

After Lu Lu finished speaking, he patted Liang Kangbo on the shoulder: "Let's go down and take a look. We can eat pork belly tonight. It's time for Yuanbao and the others to have a good meal."

As soon as Lu Lu moved, Yuan Bao immediately stepped forward, followed by several other puppies.

Zhao Yongke looked at his own black mouth, stumbling around in Lu Lu's dog gang, sighed again, and followed him.

Liang Kangbo frowned slightly, still thinking about Lu Lu's words. He looked at Lu Lu walking away, nodded, and said to himself: "That's right, at least it's safe!" After he finished speaking, he quickly followed.

After walking about two hundred meters diagonally downward, Lu Lu signaled Zhao Yongke and Liang Kangbo to slow down.

The three of them hunched over and walked forward carefully and slowly.

Yuan Bao and several other dogs followed silently.

A little further on, I saw from a distance a cannon egg weighing more than 200 pounds, whose coat color had changed from yellow to black, looking even more ferocious while rummaging among the dim trees below.

There is only one of them, and it probably broke away from the group and wandered around, preparing to spread its branches.
