Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 434

Chapter 434

Zuo Songling often does the building of sledges.

Every year, logging in forest farms, beating shovels in villages, traveling in snow, and pulling various things often use the most labor-saving sledge in the snow.

Among the several jobs, the high-intensity job of dragging logs to the wood storage point of the forest farm is particularly easy to be damaged. Lu Lu believes that Zuo Songling should be prepared here, so he simply skips the link of looking for logs and goes directly to the door.

When Lu Lu arrived at their house, he saw Zuo Songling burning firewood by the barn, and he was doing carpentry in the barn. Seeing that the courtyard door was open, Lu Lu went straight in and explained directly: "Zuo Brother, I came here to ask you to help build a sledge, do you have any ready-made ones here?"

Zuo Songling smiled and said, "Yes! When will you want it?"

"Of course, the sooner the better!" Lu Lu was indeed waiting to use it.

"Then just wait a moment!"

Zuo Songling put down the work at hand, rummaged in the shed for a while, and quickly brought out some processed sledge parts: "I'll assemble one for you now!"

Lu Lu didn't expect that Zuo Songling not only had materials here, but also processed them a long time ago. He couldn't help laughing: "I really came to the right place."

He thought he would have to wait two or three days.

"Every time I go into the mountains to look for wood, I bring back the ones that are suitable for me, and I make some time to make some. Anyway, I am idle! Come...help me!"

He had already built the furniture in Zhao Yongke's house and asked Zhao Yongke to take it back. Now he is making the set customized by Chen Xiuqing.

The construction of Chen Xiuqing's house will only start next year, and the work of building furniture has been carried out ahead of time, so there is no rush.Lu Lu has a need here, so he naturally takes care of Lu Lu's first.

With Lu Lu's help, a brand new set of sledges was completed in just over half an hour after simple trimming and assembly.

Lu Lu considered that scallions were used to pull the sledge, so it might be necessary to compare. When he came here, he came riding on scallions.

Put a sledge directly on the green onion rack, and try it out in the yard by leading it, and it fits well.

After paying Zuo Songling ten yuan for the sledge, Lu Lu greeted him, jumped on the sledge, and hurried home, it was still early.

Looking at the much smaller snowflakes that were still scattered and floating, Lu Lu decided to hunt a few more roe deer tomorrow, then bring them back and bury them in the snow in the yard, so there is no need to worry about deterioration, and there is no need to worry about them in winter You have to eat, you can seriously deal with sables and bear bile, don't worry about these miscellaneous things.

After returning to the house, he warmed his numb hands by the brazier. Lu Lu poured himself a glass of Laolongkou wine and drank it. He climbed onto the kang and made dumplings with Chen Xiuyu.

In the evening, the large vat outside the house is filled with a large vat of frozen dumplings.

Now that the dumplings are made, it is natural to eat dumplings at night.

During this period of time, Chen Xiuyu has been busy preparing food for the family, sticky bean buns, dumplings, miso, sauerkraut...everything, there is a row of large vats in the yard, full of things.

Every time she sees these things, she always looks satisfied.

During the years of living in Xiushantun, she had never lived such a prosperous life. Before Lu Lu came, she was once worried about food and clothing.

Now, there is no shortage of rice noodles and meat oil at home. There are a lot of cabbage, radishes, potatoes and noodles stored in the cellar. In the warehouse, there are many bags of various mushrooms, and those stupid chickens have been raised for several months. , It's time to eat.

In the entire Xiushantun, there is probably no one who is richer than his family.

However, in Chen Xiuyu's heart, like many people, there was always a faint uneasiness in her heart.

When the couple ate dumplings on the kang table at night, Chen Xiuyu expressed her doubts: "Brother Lu, do you think the current policy will suddenly change, and it will be the same as before?"

She is always worried that everything in the family now will become a thing of the past.

"Don't think about it, it will only get better and better in the future. What is reform and opening up? Reform and opening up is to make the country stronger and make our people's lives easier. We don't steal or rob, and live on our own. Don't think about it! Trust me, nothing will happen."

Lu Lu knew what Chen Xiuyu was thinking as soon as she heard her speak.

As a person who has lived his whole life, Lu Lu knows the general trend of development, so why would he worry about these problems.

Hearing Lu Lu's words were calm and breezy, Chen Xiuyu felt a little more at ease.

The next morning, the snow finally stopped completely, and the howling wind was still biting, but the sky had turned blue and the sun was out.

"Look at this, you can enter the mountain tomorrow."

"It should be sunny for a few days."

"Let's cook, I'll hunt some roe deer today!"

"it is good!"

Chen Xiuyu went back to the house to make breakfast, while Lu Lu was busy preparing forage.

After working for more than an hour, the fodder was prepared and added to the horses and deer. As for the four roe deer, they did not stand aside during the day and could only be fed at night.

After Lu Lu had breakfast, he packed sticky bean bags and ropes into his hunting bag, stepped on the shotgun, brought green onions, put on the sledge, and hurried to the mountains.

He was going into the mountains tomorrow, and he didn't want to take Yuanbao and them into the mountains to toss around so that they could maintain their strength.

Changing the position and going twenty miles deep into the mountains, Lu Lu chose a place, put a long rope, and tied the green onions.

In the snow, he can shovel the snow by himself to eat the weeds under the snow layer. When he is thirsty, he can eat the snow directly. Lu Lu is not worried about green onions at all. He puts on the wooden horse, sticks his ski poles, and starts searching in the mountains.

After searching in the mountains for more than two hours, from a distance, Lu Lu took a fancy to a large soil plain with a height of 60 meters (the top is relatively flat), probably because the location is better, and the trees on the soil plain are easy to get wind and close. , the tree grows quite big, but there are no small trees below, and the view is excellent.

Lu Lu knew that if there were herbivores nearby and they got separated from the main force, they would run to such a place and look around, so that it was easy to find their own group, and for hunters, it was also easy to find lonely ones in such a place Wildlife.

Roe deer move in groups, but in this kind of weather, they are easy to be chased away by other wild animals, and some are frozen. When they recover, they will choose to wait and see in this kind of place, looking for own small group.

Lu Lu immediately stepped on the wooden horse and climbed up. It is good to meet the silly roe deer. If you don't, in such a favorable position, you can see many wild animals moving in the wild in the surrounding mountains, which is convenient for you to find. Hunt the target.

Stepping on the pedals, climbing all the way up, the thicker the snow layer is as it goes up, but Lu Lu can also clearly feel that after the accumulation and precipitation of the past few days, the snow layer has become a lot firmer, and the freezing at night , when stepping on the wooden horse and walking up, the degree of subsidence has become much shallower.

In fact, even if you walk directly on the snow without the help of a Trojan horse, you will only be submerged by about [-] centimeters. There is nothing wrong with running on the snow, let alone a wild animal.

Climbing to the soil plain, Lu Lu looked around in circles on the top, and suddenly noticed movement on the opposite hillside, and took a closer look, it was forty or fifty wild animals wandering slowly on the hillside.

The distance is relatively far, and Lu Lu can roughly see that this is a kind of wild animal that is somewhat similar to a roe deer, but smaller than a roe deer, and feels strange in his heart.

He was absolutely sure that this was definitely not a roe deer. It is impossible for a roe deer to form such a large herd, and it looked more like a sheep.

After thinking for a while, Lu Lu skied down from the soil. In order to avoid disturbing these wild animals, he turned far to the left and circled to the high hillside.

After getting closer carefully, he saw it clearly, and then he recognized that it was a group of gazelles.

Although gazelle is called sheep, it only looks like sheep. In fact, it is not a sheep, but an animal called Przewalski's gazelle, which belongs to the bovine family.

Gazelle is yellow-brown all over, with rump spots and white belly. When frightened, it will blow out heart-shaped white hairs on the buttocks like a roe deer, but the horns are not the same as the roe deer, and are smaller than the roe deer. Usually more than ten They only live in groups, and in winter, they often form large groups, sometimes reaching hundreds.

Lu Lu had seen this thing before, when he was harvesting wolf skins in Inner Mongolia, but it has become rare in later generations, and it is also found in the Greater and Lesser Khingan Mountains, but it is not common.

He never expected that when he entered the mountain today, he would meet such a large group in the forest.

This is also a good thing, the quality of the meat is not inferior to that of roe deer, the leather can be made into good leather, the horn can be used as medicine, and it can also replace antelope horns to make handicrafts, and it also has very good economic value.

However, this thing is much smarter than the roe deer, and it doesn't have that stupidity at all. As long as it is alarmed, it will be able to run far away in the snow in groups.

Lu Lu was lucky enough to see the scene of hundreds of cats galloping together, and it was very spectacular.

Now Lu Lu somewhat regrets that he didn't bring out the ingots. If he brought them, he would definitely get several of them if he blocked them.

Now, it is obviously too late to regret, this opportunity should not be missed.

Lu Lv thought for a while, and quietly chose the middle position of the yellow sheep group, condescending, which can prevent the yellow sheep group from escaping to the high hillside. In that way, it is impossible for him to chase the yellow sheep uphill on the wooden horse. Less likely to catch up.It is also important to choose the position in the middle section. As long as you shoot, no matter which way the yellow sheep flee, Lu Lu will have more chances to shoot and kill them.

After choosing the location, Lu Lu raised his gun to his face and picked it out. It seemed that there were three gazelles in a densely populated place where they could make a bunch of candied haws.

With the 7.62mm bullet of the Type [-] semi-automatic rifle, it can penetrate two wild boars weighing more than two hundred catties, and three gazelles are no problem at all.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Lu picked up the gun, selected the angle, and after aiming, he decisively pulled the trigger.

There was a bang gunshot, and without accident, two of the three gazelles fell down in response, and the third one was shot in the hind leg and was injured, so it couldn't run away.

The sudden sound of gunfire sounded like a bomb had been thrown into the flock of yellow sheep. The whole flock immediately scattered and fled, but quickly gathered together and ran towards the slope on the right.

How could Lu Lu let go of this opportunity, the muzzle of the gun moved slightly, bang bang bang, and fired three shots in succession in a steady manner, successfully knocking out three of them.

But in just three or four seconds, the yellow sheep had already run a little far away. Lu Lu simply relied on his feeling and continued to shoot at the figure jumping between the trees. Fighting the odds, he missed three shots. Four shots hit a blind cat and killed a mouse.

Seeing that he couldn't shoot at all, Lu Lu was about to hang it semi-automatically in front of him, grasping the ski poles hanging on his hands with both hands, and chased after the yellow sheep.

It is easy to speed up when skiing downhill, but considering Lu Lu's current skiing skills, it is not easy to avoid numerous forest obstacles in the forest and catch up with yellow sheep.It wasn't until the small meadow at the foot of the hillside that Lu Lu found another chance to shoot and shot another one.

Seeing the gazelle rushing up one side of the hillside among the trees, Lu Lu knew that he could no longer chase it, so he had to turn back and finish off the gazelle whose hind leg was injured and fell down.

It's a long story, but in less than 2 minutes, Lu Lu got eight gazelles all at once.

A gazelle can weigh forty or fifty catties, which is more than 300 catties of good meat.

Things are going well, you can go home early.

Stepping on wooden horses, he can only take one at a time. Obviously, it is not worthwhile to send the gazelles to the sledge one by one. It is more suitable to gather these gazelles together, and then drive the sledge to pull them.

This small meadow in the mountains is a good place.

He sent the last one that was knocked down to the small meadow first, and then began to climb up the hillside, carrying down several gazelles scattered everywhere.

When he was sliding down the high hillside with the fifth gazelle in his arms, something suddenly jumped out from the side, and it jumped directly at the gazelle that Lu Lu was holding.

Being attacked suddenly, Lu Lu was taken aback. In a panic, he only felt that the Gazelle he was holding was violently pulled, and he was also pulled over on the snow.

Taking a closer look, the one who bit the gazelle and dragged him to the ground turned out to be a wolf that weighed at least a hundred catties.

It bared its teeth and whined, and always stretched its front feet straight on the ground and squatted back.

Wolves press their legs!

This is the move to prepare to attack...
