Chapter 53 Why is his luck so good?
When Li Long got up, it was already dawn.
After sleeping for more than eight hours, he felt refreshed.
Getting up and getting dressed, he went out and heard movement in the east room. He pushed the door open and saw his sister-in-law Liang Yuemei steaming steamed buns.
“Why don’t you sleep more?” Liang Yuemei asked with a smile, “It’s nothing, anyway, you’ve been tired for two days.”
"I laid some rabbit traps yesterday, and I plan to go over and have a look later."
"Uncle, uncle! Did you get the rabbit traps? When will you pick them up? Can I follow you?" Li Qiang shouted in the back room. .
"No, it's too far, you can't walk."
"I'm not afraid of getting tired!" Li Qiang was at an active and curious age, so he ran out of the back room and said excitedly.
"Where did you set the trap?" Liang Yuemei asked.
"Hongliutan, we have to walk one and a half kilometers."
"Then let him go and follow the exercise. It's time to eat when you come back."
"That's okay." Li Long nodded. , turned to Li Qiang and said, "Wear thicker clothes."
"Mom, I want to go too." Li Juan suddenly spoke.
"OK."
Li Long took Li Juan and Li Qiang and followed yesterday's footprints eastward.
"Uncle, how many rabbits can we catch this time?" Li Qiang asked as he walked. His trouser legs were tied tightly with his cotton shoes to prevent snow from getting in. Although walking was troublesome, he was so excited at this time that he didn't feel tired.
Li Juan followed at the end carrying a urea bag without saying a word.
“I don’t know, maybe there isn’t one.” Li Long said as he walked. He had to take into account the speed of the two children, so he didn’t walk very fast.
The field is completely white, but there are reeds growing on the stems. This plant has such strong vitality that even if the roots are dug out and left in the sun for a few days, they will still germinate after a few days of being buried in the soil.
So this is the most annoying thing about farming at this stage. After more than ten years, a special herbicide will come out and the reeds will die if you just apply it.
Li Long remembered that when he first arrived, the tractor following the plowing picked up the roots of the reeds, peeled off the white roots, and chewed the sweet ones, just like eating sugar cane.
It is said that it is still a traditional Chinese medicine.
I was thinking so wildly that I didn’t even hear Li Qiang’s question.
"Uncle, uncle! How much further?" After walking less than a kilometer, Li Qiang couldn't walk anymore.
"Look ahead," Li Long retracted his thoughts, pointed to a patch of red willows in front and said:
"That patch of red willows is over there."
"If you don't want to leave, then go back!" Li Long Juan didn't give her brother any face, "It's you I want to come here!”
“I don’t want to go back, we’re almost there.” Li Qiang cheered for himself, “Maybe we’ll see a rabbit when we get there!” When they reached the beach, all three of them were panting.
Li Long took the urea bag and asked the two siblings:
"Will you follow me in, or wait here."
"I want to go in!" Li Qiang raised his hand. Juan didn't say anything and raised her hand.
"Okay, follow me. You can step wherever I step."
He followed yesterday's footprints and soon reached the location of the first condom. . Somewhat disappointed, the place was empty.
The second, third, and fourth sets are all empty.
Both Li Juan and Li Qiang could see the condoms and were very disappointed when they saw there was nothing.
Continuing to walk in, Li Qiang couldn't help but said:
"Uncle, are you going back empty-handed today?" He didn't see the rabbit and was filled with disappointment, his voice already filled with disappointment. Crying.
Li Long wanted to laugh a little. The little guy endured his tiredness and followed him full of hope, but he didn't see a single rabbit, which was a bit disappointing.
"Stop talking!" Li Juan suppressed habitually, "What are you going to do if you scare the rabbit away?"
Li Long just wanted to comfort him but held it back. It really worked to have a sister looking at his brother.
Li Qiang stopped talking. Continue to follow silently.
"Rabbit, rabbit!" After a moment, Li Long stopped, and Li Qiang shouted excitedly when he saw the frozen rabbit on the ground.
An adult gray rabbit weighing two to three kilograms was strangled by a noose and was already hard.
Li Long took off the thin wire cover and put the rabbit into the bag. "Uncle, uncle, let me take a look!" Li Qiang said excitedly.
“Stop talking!” Li Juan, who was equally excited, did not forget to slap Li Qiang, “What should I do if I scare the rabbit away?”
Li Qiang is used to it. He didn't take it seriously at all. He took the bag and took the rabbit out, saying:
"It's so heavy! I don't know how much meat there is..."
Well, unlike those children in later generations who saw rabbits and said how cute they were, today's children immediately see if they can eat them when they see a rabbit. Later generations would not understand it, but now it is normal.
In an era when meat and oil were scarce, it was not possible to eat any game we caught. At this time, there were no animal protection laws.
Li Long continued to walk forward. Li Qiang was holding the bag. Li Juan wanted to take it, but he refused.
“Another one, alive!” This time, Li Qiang’s voice was louder!
Under the big red willow, a gray rabbit was almost strangled to death, spitting blood and froth from its mouth. When it saw someone coming, it started to struggle violently, and the harder it struggled, the thin wire strangled it. The tighter.
Li Long went over and grabbed its ears, lifted it up and finally untied the thin wire, and then brought it to Li Juan and Li Qiang.
“Look, it’s almost dead.”
It’s a little smaller than the previous one, and it’s still spitting blood and foam from its mouth, but its vitality is still very tenacious. Li Long suspected that its throat was strangled, but its blood vessels were not opened, so it was still alive.
"Uncle, can I take it?" Li Qiang asked.
"No," Li Long hurriedly stopped, "This guy is very vicious and has disease on his claws. You can't scratch him...touch him, touch the back of his head."
Li Qiang touched it immediately, and then immediately retracted it, for fear of being caught.
Li Juan also touched it, and then touched it again.
Li Long twisted the rabbit's head and put it into the bag.
I found two more dead ones later. This time Li Long held the bag himself. The four rabbits weighed almost ten kilograms.
When he turned back, at the edge of Hongliu Beach, Li Long unexpectedly found another one alive.
It is very alive and kicking. It should have just slipped into the cover. It is lying under the tamarisk roots and close to the ground. If you have bad eyesight, you can't really see it.
When Li Long came to the front, it suddenly jumped up and kicked towards Li Long!
He actually attacks!
This was also the largest rabbit among the five. Li Long, with his quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed its ears and lifted it up.
The rabbit was also very experienced. When Li Long lifted it up, it even bent its body and kicked Li Long hard with its hind paws!
"Uncle, be careful!" Li Juan saw it and shouted anxiously.
Li Longxin said he could still let this bastard get hurt? He picked up the rabbit's ears and smashed it to the ground!
Because it was restrained by a thin wire cover and the force was not strong, the rabbit was thrown, but it still got up and was about to escape. Li Long grabbed its ears again, swung it and smashed it on the ground!
This time, the soul is gone.
Li Long then untied the thin wire, put the rabbit into the bag, and carried it home.
"Uncle, you are so awesome!" This time, Li Qiang said sincerely.
Li Long smiled, feeling a little proud.
Back in the team, I met Xie Dafa, the neighbor in the front yard. Xie Dafa is two years older than Li Long, and he often asks Li Long and other young people to call him Fa Ge. Two years later, "Shanghai on the Bund" was released. Xie Dafa was often teased by others, but he was not annoyed. He said habitually: "Then I am called foresight - me first, then TV, okay?"< br>
Fa Ge saw Li Long and others coming back with bags, and asked from afar:
"Xiaolong, why are you going so early?"
Before Li Long could speak, Li Qiang rushed to say:
"Uncle Dafa, my uncle took us to catch rabbits! We caught several!"
Li Longxin said, Li Qiang, you have a big mouth. !
Don’t you know that you should be low-key in life?
Fa Ge was both curious and surprised:
"Catch a rabbit? How to catch it?"
Li Long explained with a smile:
"It's not a catch, it's the trap I set yesterday. I looked very lucky this night, and I caught a few rabbits. Only."
"Let me see." Fa Ge was a little unconvinced and stretched out his hand to open the bag. Looking inside, he saw a live rabbit and was amazed:
"Xiaolong, you are amazing! Many people in our team have heard of this rabbit set, but few have made it. I didn't expect you to not only make it, but also make it." Yes, I can still catch rabbits, that’s great! Come tomorrow, I’ll learn from you.”
"Okay."
Seeing the three people from the Li family returning to the yard, Xie Dafa sighed, this waiter from the Li family must be very lucky!
A new round of recommendations will come out this afternoon. I don’t know if I can get information about the second round of recommendations. I’m very nervous... Thank you all for your monthly recommendation votes. Thank you Fa Ge for your reward. I’m a small character. Already sent, please check!
