Chapter 379: The Air Force’s Half-Year Explosion
After speaking, the two picked some strawberries, washed them and put them on the stone table, enjoying them while resting.
In the evening, Xiulan baked soft cakes, then cut them into small pieces and fried them with bacon, pickled beans and chanterelles.
After dinner, Lin Heng coaxed Xiaoxia to sleep and lay down to rest. He was too lazy to read or anything. He was still very tired after running all day today.
The two of them hugged their wives and chatted quietly for a few words, then fell asleep together.
Early the next morning, Lin Heng woke up at half past five. Xiulan next to him was quickly awakened by the sound of him getting dressed. She yawned and sat up.
"We have the dishes and soft pancakes from last night for breakfast. You can just sleep for a while and get up again." Lin Heng looked at her and said.
"Okay, I'll sleep a little longer." Xiulan nodded and lay down again. She got up in the middle of the night last night to take care of the child but didn't sleep well and was still a little drowsy.
Lin Heng did some simple exercise, milked the cow, and heated breakfast on the electric oven. Just after finishing his meal, his father and elder brother came and knocked on the door.
“Coming!”
Lin Heng picked up his things and walked out with Xiongba, then locked the door with his backhand.
When Xiulan wants to go out, just go out from the back door and use the key to open the front door.
On the way up the mountain, Father Lin sighed with emotion: "I don't know if I can't gain something today."
Lin Yue responded with a smile: "At least you can pick up the fungi, but the Air Force can't."
"Yes, I definitely don't know how to fly. The prey depends on luck." Lin Heng said, he has been hunting for more than half a year, and he doesn't have much confidence in the area near this house.
"I'm talking about Ganoderma lucidum. I hope I can pick up more." Father Lin said with a smile.
"That depends on luck."
Lin Heng said as he walked to the front.
Today they still go to Baishigou from Shuijinggou. This is not the shortest route, but it is the best way to take it.
As we entered the forest, we saw patches of fungus, some of which were rotten and some of which had just grown.
Fungi are like this, they grow and die very quickly. They found some newly grown chanterelles in the woodland, but they didn't have the inclination to pick them up now. They would talk about it when they came back.
After a while they crossed Shuijinggou and came to the inaccessible mountain here. The trees here were tall, there were many fallen trees, and there was a lot of grass growing in the forest.
After walking one kilometer, they came to a forest of chanterelles. The ground was full of beautiful chanterelles.
Lin Yue said in surprise: "There are so many chanterelles, I really can't help but want to pick them up!"
Father Lin picked up a few, looked at them, shook his head and said, "They look good. In fact, half of it is rotten.”
"We'll talk about it when we get back." Lin Heng looked at it and was no longer interested. There were too many worms. Chanterelles are like this. If you don't pick them up for a day, worms will grow.
“Ouch!!”
While he was talking, Xiong Ba shouted from the front and turned to look at Lin Heng.
Lin Heng quickly took a few steps forward and saw three red Ganoderma lucidum flowers on the tree pillar where Xiong Ba stood, which looked like small fans.
“Finally found it!”
Lin Heng rubbed Xiong Ba's dog's head, picked off the Ganoderma lucidum, wrapped it in leaves and put it in a bag.
After searching around the area and walking forward, he found several Ganoderma lucidum flowers on the ground and picked them all out excitedly.
Whether it grows on trees or on the ground, Ganoderma lucidum absorbs nutrients from rotten trees. Those that grow on the ground mostly absorb nutrients from rotten tree roots in the ground. You will find them with a gentle dig. The roots are in the wood.
"It seems there are a lot of Ganoderma lucidum this time!" Father Lin said happily, he also found a few over there.
The three of them picked up Ganoderma lucidum all the way. Unknowingly, the sun reached their heads, and the beautiful Baishigou also appeared in front of them.
"Let's go down and take a look. I've already seen the mushrooms." Father Lin pointed forward and said.
Lin Heng and Lin Yue walked down from another place next to Lin Yue. Although the three of them did not encounter prey this morning, their harvest was pretty good.
Lin Heng picked up nearly twenty red Ganoderma lucidums. Because they were very big, they weighed one and a half kilograms.
He gained more because of the help of Xiongba. Both his eldest brother and his father weighed just one pound, which was much less than him.
When he came to Baishigou, Lin Heng first went to the nest where he and Xiulan found the red Ganoderma lucidum the year before last. Unfortunately, there was still no red Ganoderma lucidum this time. There were only two slaps on a tree pillar next to it. Big ones.
"It seems that the mycelium here is dead."
Lin Heng shook his head in disappointment and walked down to pick up shiitake mushrooms. There are many small shiitake mushrooms here, all growing on fallen trees. Considered happy.
It’s just that if you pick too many, you will inevitably feel bored. Your eyes are all on the Ganoderma lucidum. Fortunately, there are a lot of Ganoderma lucidum here. You can often find one or two after walking a few dozen meters.
"What time is it, son? It's almost time for us to sit down and eat, right?" Father Lin shouted from the front.
When Lin Heng looked at his watch, he realized that it was already one o'clock. He kept picking up mushrooms like a treasure hunt and didn't feel the passage of time.
"It's two o'clock, let's eat. Go to the ditch to eat." Lin Heng responded. He didn't find any prey anyway, so he spoke louder.
While in Baishigou, his harvest was pretty good. He picked up twenty kilograms of shiitake mushrooms and six or seven taels of red Ganoderma lucidum.
Ganoderma lucidum, like other fungi, has exploded a lot this year.
“Awww~~”
Lin Heng was about to walk that way when he suddenly heard Xiongba calling him on the hillside in the upstream direction.
"Here we come!" Lin Heng walked over with curiosity. As soon as he got close to him, he smelled a strange fragrance.
“It’s a matsutake mushroom!”
Lin Heng quickly recalled it and ran towards it. Sure enough, he saw the matsutake mushroom that had just emerged on the ground.
“There are matsutake mushrooms here too!” Lin Heng was pleasantly surprised. He picked up a wooden stick and carefully took out the matsutake mushrooms.
I searched around and dug out a total of six palm-sized matsutake mushrooms, which could weigh as much as eighty-two.
"Look for Xiong Ba again and see if there are any more." Lin Heng touched Xiong Ba's head and said.
"Ouch!" Xiongba stood still, as if he would have discovered it a long time ago.
"Okay, let's go back." Lin Heng touched its head, turned around and walked back.
Beside Baishigou, Father Lin and his eldest brother had found a willow tree to sit down. After seeing him for a long time, they came over and asked curiously: "What did you find?"
"Hey, it's enough. There are six matsutake mushrooms." As soon as Lin Heng opened the plastic bag, a strong fragrance wafted out.
"What a good thing!"
"You are so lucky!"
Both of them were surprised and envious.
Lin Heng said with a smile: "It's too little. I take it home and eat it myself, and I'm too lazy to sell it."
Now he picks up mushrooms just to satisfy his thirst for food. The only products sold may be Ganoderma lucidum and large quantities of black truffles.
Although matsutake mushrooms are precious, there is no thought of selling these few.
"You can eat it yourself. The soup is very fragrant." Father Lin nodded. He had eaten it twice after Lin Heng made it. "I hope I can pick up two this afternoon." Lin Yue said enviously.
Leaving aside whether you can make money or not, picking up rare fungi is as exciting as picking up a golden legend in the game. Dopamine will be secreted crazily, making people extremely happy.
“If there is one, it’s easy to find. You can smell the fragrance from a distance.”
Lin Heng said something, then took out the soft biscuits and started eating them.
There are simple meals on the mountain, just fill your stomach. After eating, the three of them crossed Baishigou and continued to pick up fungi.
After exploring here for an afternoon, Lin Heng failed to find matsutake. He found three traces of prey, namely wild boar, muntjac and pig badger. Unfortunately, he took Xiongba to track them for a distance. Then it disappeared without a trace.
It is difficult to hunt prey now, so Lin Heng didn’t worry too much. He mainly focused on picking up fungi.
After three hours of picking in the afternoon, the total weight of the red Ganoderma lucidum on his body reached five kilograms. Even if it was dried, it would be more than one kilogram, worth more than 60 yuan.
There weren't many shiitake mushrooms, they totaled about forty kilograms, and there were more than ten kilograms of chanterelles.
In addition, many beautiful wild lilies bloomed in the ditch. He picked the flowers and prepared to take them back to his wife.
After five o'clock, they started to walk back, still going back to Shuijinggou, but they took a different path and picked up all the fungi they encountered on the road.
At around six o'clock, when he was about to arrive at Shuijinggou, Lin Heng found the footprints of a pig badger on the ground. They looked very fresh, as if they had just stepped on them in the morning. There were still signs of some chanterelles being eaten on the ground.
“Xiongba, try again!”
Lin Heng touched Xiong Ba's head and motioned for him to try searching again.
He turned to his father and said something to his eldest brother, and followed Xiong Ba all the way. This tracking lasted for more than half an hour. It was almost dark before they made any discovery.
The traces found on a ridge here are getting fresher and fresher, and they were obviously formed just now.
Lin Heng looked at the direction of the wind and walked forward quietly. After a while, he actually saw a figure with a black and white head. This guy was eating mushrooms in the forest and didn't notice him at all.
Putting the arrow on the bow, Lin Heng walked forward slowly, getting closer and closer. The forest land that had just rained was silent when walking, which was very suitable for him to hunt. He had not encountered such a big prey in a long time. Excited.
"Boom!!"
Just when he was less than thirty meters away from the pig badger, a huge gunshot suddenly came from the rear left, and he heard a grunt, and the pig badger turned around in fright. Just run.
Lin Heng was confused by the sudden gunshot, but Xiongba rushed down without giving up. He closed the distance in just five or six seconds, and then took a bite when the pig badger turned the corner. Bit it.
As a large dog, Xiongba weighs more than fifty kilograms, while the maximum size of the pig badger is only thirty kilograms. The two sides are not in the same order of magnitude at all.
Xiongba bit the pig badger by the neck and lifted it up directly. After biting it several times, there was no movement.
"Awesome!"
Lin Heng looked at Xiong Ba and gave a thumbs up.
It is true that dogs can chase pigs and badgers. Many dogs can do it, but it is rare for Xiongba to be so fast, accurate and fierce.
Xiongba took a few more bites to make sure it was dead, and then he put it down in front of Lin Heng, holding his head high and waiting to be touched.
Lin Heng rubbed the dog's head hard and praised again: "I will let you eat meat until you are full today."
After receiving Lin Heng's praise, Xiong Ba burst into laughter.
Lin Heng bled the pig badger's claws. Upon closer inspection, he found that this guy's neck had been bitten off by the bully. It was really a terrifying bite force.
With the pig badger in hand, he quickly returned to the back and asked from a distance: "What's going on? Brother, did you fire the gun?"
Lin Yue responded: "Yes. I knocked down a pig badger and almost let it run away."
"What? You also hit a pig badger?" Lin Heng was shocked and ran over to meet his eldest brother's father.
Lin Yue looked at the pig badger in Lin Heng's hand and his eyes widened: "You also hit one?"
Lin Heng exhaled and sighed with a smile: "It seems that the two of us are in the same nest. Yes, you shot ahead of time when I was about to shoot, scaring me away. Fortunately, Xiongba was powerful enough and caught me directly."
Pig badgers live in groups of three or four, so they live in groups. It's not unusual to have one nearby.
Lin Yue smiled helplessly: "I can't help it. I discovered it suddenly, right in front of my eyes. If I don't shoot, I'm afraid I'll run away, so I can't notify you."
Father Lin rubbed it Holding Xiongba's head, he opened his mouth from ear to ear happily: "Fortunately, Xiongba is so powerful, we have a great harvest today!"
"Indeed, I didn't expect to meet a pig badger again." Lin Heng grinned. Although the pig badger is small, its meat is still quite delicious.
Lin Yueze said: "We have been chasing the Shandu Air Force for six months, and it's time to encounter prey."
"Stop talking, go home quickly and get food. Let's go home in the evening Fried pig and badger meat." Father Lin helped his two sons pick up the mushrooms and said with a smile.
The two men carried the pig and badger and hurried back. They were also hungry. The two of them compared each other on the way. The one Lin Heng shot was bigger, weighing more than 20 kilograms, while the one owned by his elder brother only weighed 18 or 19 kilograms.
After returning home, Lin Heng quickly knocked on the door. When Xiulan and Xiaoxia came to open the door, he held a mushroom in one hand and a pig badger in the other to show off: "Awesome, we have a great harvest today!"< br>
"You also shot a pig badger, so powerful!!" Xiulan was really shocked, because Lin Heng hadn't hunted a decent prey in half a year.
Xiaoxia was even more direct, jumping up and down and cheering: "Wow, dad is the most powerful, my dad is the most powerful!!"
"Hahaha, not only that, my eldest brother also slapped me on the head. , is smaller than me, and I picked up five kilograms of fungi." Lin Heng laughed, and the expressions on his wife and children made him feel happy.
"It is indeed a good harvest today. I will go back and put down the fungi first, and call your mother to come with me later." Father Lin said, took the things and left.
Lin Heng returned to the house, threw things on the ground, picked up Xiaoxia, threw her in the air, and played with her for a while, then hugged Xiulan tightly and spun her around twice in the air.
"Looking at how excited you are, you are even more excited than hitting a black bear!" Xiulan plucked the spider silk from his hair and said with a smile.
“You don’t understand, I have been in the Air Force for half a year this year, and the goods are finally on sale!”
Lin Heng took a sip of water and said excitedly that although he did not go into the mountains this year, he He has been hunting for a long time, and the Air Force has made his mentality a little broken.
I didn’t expect that there would be a big sale today, how could I not be excited? It’s already restrained without showing off to the whole village.
"I understand, I understand, dad is the most powerful." Xiaoxia hugged Lin Heng's legs and said, she still wanted to be lifted high.
Xiulan patted his clothes and smiled and said: "Go and change quickly, and then we can deal with the pig badger."
"We will change later, kill the pig badger first."
< br>Lin Heng sat down and explained the thrills to his wife and children. After listening, Xiulan could feel his mood.
"You even got matsutake mushrooms. That's really great today. You should be rewarded well." Xiulan said, looking at the mushrooms she picked up.
Lin Heng laughed and said: "It's easy, let's fight for 300 rounds tonight!"
"Fuck you, Xiaoxia is still here." Xiulan slapped him in the face, her pretty face blushing slightly.
Xiaoxia clapped her little hands: "Okay, I want to watch mom and dad fight for three hundred rounds!"
Lin Heng: "..."
Xiulan: " ..."
