Chapter 105 Wolong takes action, Zhu Erhai enters the mountain
“Xiaonian, do you think we brothers can go up the mountain and bring back the wild boar?”
On the Kang table in the east room of Xiaonian’s house, Zhu Erhai took a sip of the two hairs and a pound of loose white, his face was a little rosy, and he asked with a straight look.
The pot of rooster stewed with mushrooms on the kang table was almost eaten, and the other plate was filled with sliced mustard greens and pickles. The two brothers only had two dishes, and a pound of white wine had already been drained.
Wang Xiaonian glanced at Zhu Erhai, a slight smile appeared on his slightly flushed face, and then he shook his head slowly.
"We can't do it! If you want to kill the wild boars on the mountain, you must at least have something in your hands!!"
Although Wang Xiaonian was drunk, his logical thinking ability has not been lost, and he gestured with his thumb and index finger. A pistol stance.
"We can't afford a gun! Where can we find a gun!"
Zhu Erhai was a little disappointed. This thing was not something they could get if they wanted to.
Don’t say that your friends don’t have guns at home. Even if they have guns, if they come to borrow them, no one will lend them to them.
According to the reputation of the Zhu family in the village, if you go up the mountain to hunt something, you can catch the prey with enough force, but if something happens, you can't tell the truth.
"I have a plan that can solve the problem of the guys going up the mountain!" Wang Xiaonian picked up the wine glass and took a sip, saying with a very sure tone.
"Tell me! If it works, I will take credit as your first contribution!!"
"Let's go find Junqiang and recruit Junqiang to join the gang, and we'll have a gun!" "
"Wang Junqiang's family doesn't have any guns?" Zhu Erhai's eyes became clearer when he heard Wang Xiaonian's trick.
"You don't know this. Junqiang's family does not have a gun, but my second grandfather's family does! Although the old sleeve is a little older, it is still a regular firearm. My second grandfather usually cherishes it and picks it up from time to time. Take it off the wall and disassemble it for maintenance. With 7.92 bullets, it is no problem to deal with wild animals such as wild boars."
Wang Xiaonian and Wang Junqiang are cousins of the same great-grandfather, and the second grandfather in his mouth is him! Wang Junqiang’s grandfather had an old socket in his family.
Some people may not know the word "old sleeve" when it comes to it, but it also has a famous name.
Made in Hanyang!
Yes, it is the domestic version produced by the Hanyang Arsenal in China based on the German 1888 Commission Rifle. This gun is older than Wang Junqiang’s second grandfather.
In the early years, the technical level of domestic gun manufacturing was limited, and the performance of the steel used to make the barrels was mediocre. In addition, the old guns have gone through the changes of the times, and the rifling has long been shallow. They can be used at short ranges and at distances of more than a hundred. Ten meters, there is basically no high accuracy at all.
"Your second grandfather will definitely not give the gun to Junqiang. Going into the mountains is no small matter, and there is no one to guide him! It's just the three of us. Junqiang can't get the gun from home!"< br>
Zhu Erhai was drunk even though he was drunk, but when it came to business, his reaction was just a little slower, and he was not as unclear as other mengzi.
Wang Xiaonian nodded: "Of course, no matter who owns the gun, the younger generation cannot touch it casually. If you touch it, you will be beaten, but we can try to recruit it!"
"What? Zhao'er? Find an adult to take us and lie to the old man?" Zhu Erhai thinks this plan is not feasible.
"No! My second grandfather likes to drink. Let's ask Junqiang to bring some wine to his grandfather. When the old man drinks too much, we can just lend him the gun.
Waiting for the old man to sober up is the second priority. What’s the matter, we’ve already dragged the wild boar back, and we’ll probably get scolded at most!”
Wang Xiaonian is worthy of being the Wolong of Xing’an Village, let alone the operability of this trick! , there really is something like that.
"Where did the wine come from? We have no money. I secretly brought this chick back from Ma Huazi's house at noon!" Zhu Erhai was obviously a little excited, but he had no start-up capital in his pocket. Money stumps a heroic man.
“We won’t eat the chicken in the kitchen, and let Junqiang take it to the canteen in Fang’an and give it to my second grandpa with a bottle of Sanbai. Isn’t this done?” Wang Xiaonian pointed out. He said pointing to another little rooster in the bag at the kitchen door next to him.
"Okay, then go and call Jun Qiang over, let's discuss it with him!" Zhu Erhai nodded and decided to use this little rooster as a bargaining chip.
"It's better for me to go than for you to go. After all, Junqiang and I are cousins who haven't left the fifth server. If my dad finds out, he will kill me!" Wang Xiaonian shook his head and decisively refused.
"Okay, I'll go find Junqiang, you wait at home!"
When it comes to business, Zhu Erhai's drunkenness has mostly dissipated, he got up from the kang and put on his heels. The big cotton-padded jacket then went out and went straight to Jun Qiang's house at the entrance of the alley.
People of their generation are all about the same age. It can be said that they all wore crotchless pants and played together from childhood to adulthood.
Even though the Zhu family has a bad reputation in the village, among the friends, Zhu Erhai's reputation is not bad. At least he knows how to share good things with friends he knows well.
For example, the chicken stewed with mushrooms that he had for lunch today. He got the little rooster from outside. Instead of eating it himself, he took it to Xiaonian’s house. Of course, this was not the same as Xiaonian’s parents. Being away from home during the day also has something to do with it.
About half an hour later, Wang Junqiang followed Zhu Erhai to the east room of Xiaonian's house.
Wang Junqiang is not tall, only about 1.7 meters tall. He is 18 years old this year. He is quite fair and has a smile when he opens his mouth. He is a handsome boy with a little bit of good looks.
"Xiao Nian, I heard from Brother Erhai that you are going to go into the mountains to hunt wild boars together, so you have to take me with you!" Wang Junqiang asked in detail about going up the mountain when he entered.
Xiaonian: "Yeah, we can't handle this without you, we plan to..."
Who is Wang Xiaonian? He is Wolong of Xing'an Village. He used all kinds of deceptions to successfully make Wang Jun move. Concerned, he agreed to take the two-pound little rooster outside to exchange for wine at the canteen in the next village, and then go to his grandfather's house to steal the gun.
In other words, in this era, children were so courageous that they stole guns and went into the mountains to work on wild boars. All three of them were just raw melons and eggs. But when they saw other people in the village making money, they actually thought that I You can fuck me too.
After Zhu Erhai and Wang Xiaonian successfully mobilized Wang Junqiang, Wang Junqiang soon started the operation.
Take the little rooster to exchange for wine. A little rooster weighing more than two kilograms was exchanged for two kilograms of Sanbai, plus a bag of spiced peanuts.
After changing the wine, Junqiang took the wine and peanuts to his grandfather's house.
Wang Junqiang’s grandfather and wife passed away several years ago. Now he is living alone. His two sons are filial, and the old man’s life is so-so.
Wang Junqiang said that with the money he earned from going to the mountains with others to collect mountain products in the fall, he bought wine to honor his grandfather and made the old man happy. That night, the two men were at home and stewed a pot of potatoes, and the old man ate peanuts. Just a pound of it went in. Junqiang waited for his grandfather to get drunk and helped the old man get on the kang to sleep. Then he took down the gun and bullet bag that were placed on the top of the kang cupboard, and quietly left his grandpa's house.
I got the gun. I can be sure that grandpa will not find it before tomorrow morning. In fact, if you are lucky and the old man doesn’t pay attention to the top of the kang cupboard, you may lose the gun for a few days. Can't find it.
The three brothers met at Wang Xiaonian's house and hid the guns in the firewood pile at Wang Xiaonian's house. They agreed to meet at the head of the village early tomorrow morning with the dry food and invasion knives they had brought to the mountain.
Early the next morning, it was just dawn. Zhu Erhai, who had been holding back all night and planned to do something big, got up early. His breakfast was very simple, usually steamed buns with pickles, and a bowl of rice cakes. Zi porridge.
The second child only ate a few steamed buns and didn’t even wait for the rice porridge to be cooked. He said hello to his mother early and left the house with his bag on his shoulder.
On weekdays, the Zhu family is not strict with their children, so they don’t take it seriously. They thought the child had made an appointment with a friend to go out and pick up jumping cats early in the morning.
At 6:30 in the morning, a trio headed by Zhu Erhai gathered beside the small river ditch outside the village. At first glance, the three of them looked very similar. They were wearing leggings and carrying bags. Wang Junqiang also Made in Hanyang on his grandfather's back.
"Brother Erhai, where are we going today?" Junqiang's clear eyes revealed that he was confused.
Zhu Erhai said: "I know a place. Before it snowed a few days ago, there was a large group of pigs!
My third uncle told me this news when he went to the mountains to collect goods. Let's talk about it first. According to the rules, if it happens, the intelligence information will count as one share!"
"No problem, the news will count as one share, the gun will count as one share, and the three of us will each count as one share, and that's it?"
Wang Xiaonian followed Zhu Erhai's thoughts and put forward his own request.
Among the three people, Zhu Erhai has news, Junqiang has a gun, but Wang Xiaonian has nothing.
But this guy is very clear about his head, and he is afraid that Zhu Erhai will come up with the rule of having his head occupy two shares again, so Three people were placed in the same position in advance, with a total of five shares, and Wang Xiaonian was able to get one-fifth of them.
Zhu Erhai was still thinking about mentioning that as the leader, he should have two shares, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Wang Junqiang.
"Okay, I think what Xiaonian said is reasonable! What do you think, Brother Erhai?"
The two brothers are cousins after all, and now they both agree, and what Zhu Erhai said also It's hard to say it out loud. It's all raw melon and eggs. I have to force myself to get more of the identity of the leader, but I can't stand it.
"Okay, then it's settled! Let's go, I'll take you up the mountain!" Zhu Erhai gritted his teeth and agreed, and walked towards the mountain with Xiaonian and Junqiang.
The place where Zhu Erhai got the news is called Sandaogang. It takes two and a half hours to walk on the mountain road from Xing'an Village. Because it is far away from the surrounding village gathering areas, the people who are rushing here are relatively small. Much less.
In addition to being busy with farming, the three brothers of the Zhu family usually use mountain climbing as their main source of income. After running in the mountains for so many years, they have accumulated several places where they can produce mountain goods, and these three hills are one of them. place.
Every year, Zhu Erhai's third uncle likes to come here to pick Hericium and fungus. Although he can't make much money, he always comes back empty-handed, and it can be regarded as a private plot.
The three brothers were holding back their energy and went up the mountain to fuck the wild boar. The wind was blowing along the way, for fear that the wild boar would be beaten away by others if they went late. It usually took them two and a half hours to get to the place. A little over two hours later, we arrived at Sandaogangzi.
This section of the mountain ridge here is quite interesting. A large mountain ridge, while extending to the southwest, branched off into two almost parallel forked roads. The two forked roads divided the mountain ridge into three sections. This is how it came about. The place name of Sandaogang.
When there is heavy rain here in the summer, there is still water at the bottom of the ditch. In the dry season, the ground is dry. There are many plants such as hazelnuts and jujube vines and grapes growing on both sides of the ditch bottom. The wind-fallen trees are covered with mushrooms in summer, and wild boars like to graze here. In the past few years, some people even saw Blind Bear here more than once.
“I heard from the elders that this wild boar’s eyesight is not very good, but its nose is very sensitive. We’d better be downwind so that it’s not easy to find. Junqiang, give me the gun and wait a minute. You two are responsible for covering me!"
"Yes, give the gun to Brother Erhai, he is a militiaman and has experience in target shooting!" Xiao Nian also agreed.
Jun Qiang originally wanted to be a shooter himself. After hearing what Xiao Nian said, he hesitated for a while and decided to give the gun to Zhu Erhai.
Junqiang handed the gun to Zhu Erhai and said: "This gun's bullets are valuable. It's hard to get the 7.92mm round head now. You can't throw away the fired shells. You have to go back and reload!"
< br>"Don't worry, the instructor taught me how to use this thing during the militia training! Made in Hanyang, pull the bolt to eject the shell, right?" While speaking, Zhu Erhai held the gun in his left hand and gestured with the bolt in his right hand.
The structure of this old antique is very simple. The shelling and loading are manually operated by pulling the bolt, so Zhu Erhai looks decent.
Originally, according to Zhu Erhai's idea, he had to find a place to shoot a gun to get a feel for it, but considering that there were only seven bullets in the bullet bag, he was not willing to cause trouble.
Taking the gun from Wang Junqiang’s hand, Zhu Erhai automatically entered the ‘fighting’ state. At first glance, it sounded like that.
But they neither knew how to track nor brought a dog with them, so they just wandered around on the mountain ridge, trying to find the place where the wild boar herds were active.
The three men carried guns and wandered around Sandaogang for at least several hours. Not to mention wild boars, they didn't even find a jumping cat.
The original enthusiasm was slowly cooled down by the howling north wind. The three brothers’ feet were numb from the cold as they walked in the heavy snow.
"Brother Erhai, didn't you say there are pigs here? We have almost completed a full circle around Sandaogang, where are the pigs?"
Wang Xiaonian is really cold. I couldn't stand it any longer, so I wiped the cold green snot from my nose with my sleeve, and asked with some discomfort.
"This wild boar is alive, not dead. It was moving here before it snowed. God knows if it will still be there after it snows. Why don't you come here to have a look! It's normal if it's not there!"
Zhu Erhai also felt that the team His fighting passion is declining, but as a captain, he cannot say depressing words.
"If you can't shoot the pig today, it will be difficult to take out the gun!"
Jun Qiang was a little worried along the way, and even more so after being blown by the wind and snow. I was a lot scared afterwards.
He can now picture himself stealing a gun into the mountains, returning home empty-handed, and facing his father's ruthless iron hand.
Just as the three brothers were muttering about the possible consequences of failing to enter the mountain for the first time, at the bottom of the valley at the edge of their field of vision, a large block of yellow and black colors appeared in front of the three of them.
"Shh! Stop talking. Look what's at the bottom of the valley over there?" Zhu Erhai pointed to the distance, and his heartbeat suddenly began to accelerate.
