Chapter 357

"Qingzi..."

Hearing Chen Xiuqing's strange cry, Lu Lu was startled, grabbed the semi-automatic machine standing beside him, and rushed towards Chen Xiuqing's convenient forest.

Zhao Yongke was also startled, and immediately followed.

The situation in the mountains is complicated, and no one can tell what will happen.

Fortunately, Chen Xiuqing didn't go far.

The two rushed into the woods a few times, seeing the scene in front of them, they felt chills in their hearts.

There was a large square deep pit among the trees. At the bottom of the pit, thick spikes stood upright, and Chen Xiuqing fell into such a pit.

This is a trap - the cellar of absolute households!

Lu Lu recognized it immediately.

Hunters shuttle between the mountains and forests, fighting tigers and bears. This is a very exciting profession, and many people are addicted to it because of this stimulation.

But at the same time, the hunter is also a very dangerous profession, because looking for prey in the mountains and forests, even if you have a hunting weapon in your hand, it is not easy to defeat some large beasts. Chinese food.

In order to avoid head-on fighting with wild animals, traps have become a convenient and relatively safe means of hunting.

If the trap is set well, the hunting effect is no worse than the method of holding a gun to pinch and chase or squatting to guard the prey.

The point is, ordinary people can also do it easily.

Especially in the era of lack of food and clothing, many people entered the mountain, and there were more and more methods of using traps, which became more and more dangerous.

The deep pit with sharp wooden stakes at the bottom is the most typical representative.

Juehujiao, also known as Yanwangjiao, is a prohibited trapping method.

The method of Juehujiao is very simple. Dig a deep pit on the ground where wild animals fall into it and cannot climb out. The bottom of the pit is covered with sharp wooden stakes made of hard wood and charred and antiseptic. They are usually used to deal with large prey, such as wild boars, etc. .

Once it falls in, it can be said that it is certain to die.

The reason why it is prohibited to use is because this kind of trap is highly lethal and highly concealed. People often enter the mountain and fall into the trap by mistake and lose their lives.

"Qingzi...are you hurt?"

Lu Lu looked at Chen Xiuqing who was leaning on the edge of the pit and asked loudly.

"Brother Lu...I'm fine!"

Chen Xiuqing looked up and saw that Lu Lu saw his pale face, he must have been quite frightened.

"I'll pull you up!"

Lu Lu crawled on the ground and reached out to Chen Xiuqing who was in the pit.Zhao Yongke also hurriedly reached out to help.

The two of them held Chen Xiuqing's hand, and together they pulled Chen Xiuqing up.

The three of them fell to the ground, not knowing what to say.

This extremely well-made cellar is quite well done, with a depth of [-] meters, dug straight, and the walls are even carefully inlaid with wood to prevent the soil from slipping.

This is done so that it can be reused.

It's just that it should have existed for a long time, and the sharp wood set in the pit has long been rotten.

Chen Xiuqing's life was too bad. After falling in, it wasn't that he himself was pierced by those sharp logs, but the rotten wood was crushed. Apart from being covered in dirty mud, he was not injured at all.

"It's such a big hole, why don't you look at it! As long as these piles are not rotten to the point of mud, if you fall into them, they will be gone."

Lu Lu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear.

"I can't see that there is a pit in this place either!"

Chen Xiuqing shook her head: "When I came here, I saw that the land was flat and full of leaves. Except for a slight depression, I couldn't tell that it was a trap at all. I also thought that it would be a good place to have a hut. Well, who knows, I untied my trouser belt, and when I walked up, I stepped on it empty."

Chen Xiuqing scratched her head: "Now I don't feel like I'm going to the latrine at all."

"Fortunately, you didn't fall while squatting..."

Zhao Yongke patted Chen Xiuqing on the shoulder and said jokingly.

Lu Lu's gaze was still looking at the pit, and the seven or eight tree roots lying horizontally on it were exposed after the rotten leaves fell, probably because of these tree roots, the cover set up at the mouth of the pit has been piled up all the time It didn't completely collapse.

Who said that people in the wilderness don't set traps?

On the contrary, traps are the most used places in the wilderness.

At any rate, he has been wandering in this land for many years, and Lu Lu still knows something about it.

Before the reform and opening up, the various production teams in the mountains organized special hunters to hunt or carry clubs every year. These were regarded as sideline jobs, and the money earned was converted into work points for distribution.

Among them, there are special people stationed in the deep mountains for a long time to guard, and set up deer cellars in places where there are traces of deer activities, and inspect them every day.

The biggest difference between Lujiao and Juehujiao is that there is no sharp wood placed at the bottom of the pit.

Including dealing with small days in the early years, the Anti-Japanese League, which was active in the mountains all the year round, relied on obtaining food and drink from the mountains. In order to survive, traps like this were often used at that time.

Luckily for Lujiao, if he fell, he would be injured at most from a fall.

Juehujiao is a completely different matter. Even the cannon eggs can be pierced by the sharp wood at the bottom of the pit. They are often used to deal with wild animals such as wild boars, wolves, and bears. A deadly trap.

There have been too many accidents, and I realized the dangers of Juehujiao, which is different from the deer cellar that is still in use. Gradually, fewer and fewer people use Juehujiao.

However, the method that is often prohibited is also an excellent method.

There are quite a few people wandering around in the wilderness. Although it is forbidden, not everyone will abide by it.

"In the future, when entering the mountains, you must be more careful. Not only must you guard against wild animals, but you must also guard against these more hidden traps. When we enter the mountains in the future, traps must be used with caution, including those nooses, clips and the like. Pay attention to inspections at all times, and dismantle them if they are not in use, especially on the mountains around the village."

Lu Lu said something seriously.

Zhao Yongke and Chen Xiuqing nodded slightly after listening.

This is really not a trivial matter, so be careful.

Lu Lu looked at Chen Xiuqing: "Are you still going to the latrine?"

"I don't feel it yet!"

"Then let's go back, and it will take a lot of time to get back to the forest farm!"

Lu Lu greeted and walked back.

Chen Xiuqing's fall on the mouth of this Juehu cellar had completely exposed it, and the sharp wood at the bottom of the pit had completely rotted away, so there was no major harm, so the three of them ignored it and walked back together.

Putting the other five hunting nets away and putting them in the hunting bag, Lu Lu looked back at the stag weighing more than [-] kilograms, and chopped another wooden stick: "I have to trouble you to carry it for me."

"Carry the trouble, let's drag it all over the place!"

As Zhao Yongke said, he looked around and found a small tree. He cut down the tree with a hunting knife, and tied the pointed branches with a rope to form a pocket.

This method made Lu Lu's eyes shine. When he thought of the situation when he and Chen Xiuqing caught the first deer, the two of them worked together and carried the deer back to the meadow after being exhausted. He couldn't help feeling that there was a lump in his head paste.

In order to prevent the deer from being hurt during the dragging process, Zhao Yongke also put thick pine needles inside.

The three of them worked together to lift the stag into the ground mop. When Zhao Yongke and Chen Xiuqing were about to drag it down, Lu Lu blew his whistle vigorously towards the valley below.

Not long after, Zhuifeng ran up from below, and Yuanbao and his hunting dogs ran ahead.

Directly tied the mop and saddle with a rope, Lu Lu led the horse and dragged the stag down, and found that the effect was quite good.

Of course, thanks to this mountain, the slope is gentle and there are not so many ditches.

Things suddenly became easier. After confirming the direction, the three of them did not stop all the way. After spending more than three hours, they finally arrived at the main road leading to various logging sites in the forest farm, and the speed suddenly became much faster.

In the middle of the journey, it was just that the drag was unable to withstand the wear and tear, so it was replaced once.

It was already evening when we returned to Huapi Qiangzi Forest Farm.

In the shack, the two deer that had been tied up for so long were still barking, and now there was another male deer.

But at this time, if you want to rush back, it is too late.

They could only cook a simple meal in the shack, and after eating, the three of them rested early, but with the cries of these three wild animals, they were destined to have a restless night's sleep.

After finally staying in the middle of the night, even Chen Xiuqing, who had always been a heavy sleeper, couldn't fall asleep, let alone Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke.

Together, the three of them planned to take advantage of the cool weather and rush home early.

If the weather gets hotter, it will be another torture for the deer and roe, which are already a little weak.

The forest farm has a good road leading directly to the Meixi District, even if it is still dark outside, you can still walk.

The roe and deer were all loaded into the carriage, and Chen Xiuqing also jumped on it and drove the carriage away.

Lu Lv rode Chasing Feng and led the hounds to lead the way, with Zhao Yongke in the rear.

Finally, at dawn, the three of them arrived at the district. Seeing that the journey back would not take long, the three of them felt a lot more relaxed.

The stalls that come out to sell breakfast in the district have been set up, and the early risers have already started their busy day.

Chen Xiuqing seems to like pancake rolls with scallions very much. When passing by a food stall, the carriage didn't even stop, so she jumped out of the carriage and bought two for Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke, but after thinking about it, she asked the stall owner Got about twenty more.

"Why do you buy so much at once? Can you eat so much?"

There are still a few steamed buns brought into the mountain this time in Zhao Yongke's hunting bag.

"This is delicious, take it back and give Xiuyu and Father Zhao a taste."

Chen Xiuqing grinned with a simple and honest face.

Lu Lu was slightly taken aback when he heard that, he didn't expect Chen Xiuqing to be so thoughtful.

"When I was young, I was sick once, and my dad brought me to the district for treatment. That was when my dad bought me pancakes with green onions. I didn't expect that pancakes with green onions would be so fragrant and delicious. eat.

Since then, I have always hoped that I would have a disease that could only be cured by going to the district hospital, because in that case, my dad might buy me pancakes again... I have been thinking about it all the time.

Who knew, my dad would be gone so soon.That is to say, Brother Lu is here, and I will have a chance to eat it again when I go to the district, so I don’t want to eat more. "

What Chen Xiuqing said made Lu Lu stunned for a moment, inexplicably thinking of those days when he was a child living in Haicheng with his mother.
