Dashan Makes a Living 1984 Chapter 21

  Chapter 21 021: Meowing

  In the small yard, there is a strong aroma, and the lights of each cave dwelling flicker on and off.

   When giving Wang Tiancheng the shoes, Wang Tianxiao gave Wang Tiancheng a hundred yuan. The thing was done by two people. Although he was the main contributor, Wang Tiancheng also stayed up all night and shared a quarter of the money, which he thought was very reasonable.

  Wang Tiancheng didn't want it, and Wang Tianxiao was so talkative, he reluctantly accepted the fifty yuan in the end, and said that if he gave it again in the future, he would not come out with him.

  Wang Tianxiao didn't insist too much.

  This younger brother will be a person who will do great things in the future. I try not to interfere with his thoughts and let him develop step by step.

  If he instills too many concepts of money, it may change his thinking mode, and the loss outweighs the gain.

   Only those who have regrets need to change their lives. The fifth younger brother, who is already happy and happy, should just follow his original path.

  Through his wife's dystocia and changing because of his arrival, he becomes more cautious about the time gear deviating from the original track due to his possible influence.

  Everyone has more or less connections with many people in the society. Changing one person will inevitably change others.

  Change must be two-way. Some people get better, while others may get worse. He feels that he doesn't have that much power, he just needs to seriously change his life.

  With the experience of the first day, the two continued to catch several nights.

   You should catch it before the snow melts. After the snow melts, the rabbits will run out to find food, and they will store the food in their holes at night. If you want to catch again, the success rate will not be so high.

  The wild rabbits here belong to the snow rabbits, and their burrows are usually in the mountains. They like to store food for two or three days, and they will come out when they are almost finished eating.

   Sure enough, on the night of the fourth day, the two of them had a mediocre harvest in the periphery. As they walked, they slowly walked to the depths of the mountain.

   By the time I realized it, it was already very deep.

  It was very dark and the surrounding trees were tall, even Wang Tianxiao couldn't tell the direction for a while.

   The two of them walked around inside, Wang Tianxiao felt it was better not to move around.

Yangziling is a primeval forest, a part of Ziwuling. There are more than 150 kinds of wild animals, big and small, including small animals such as weasels, badgers, hog badgers, and gray cranes, as well as some ferocious carnivorous and omnivorous beasts. .

   Such as black bear, leopard, gray wolf, jackal, wild boar and so on.

  It is winter now, although black bears may not be encountered, but wolves and wild boars are easy to encounter.

  In the early years, every winter, wolves in the mountains would often come to steal and eat sheep, while leopards would eat everything.

  If you find a dog's bone hanging on a tree branch in the forest, it must have been attacked by a leopard. The animal will first grab the prey to the tree, and then slowly eat it clean, leaving only the bone.

  Wang Tianxiao is not afraid, he is very confident with a gun on his back.

  In fact, many wild animals in the forest are afraid of people and will not actively attack people.

  Take wolves as an example. Although Timberwolves and Prairie wolves are both wolves, their temperaments are quite different.

  The population of prairie wolves will be larger, generally there are more than seven, up to more than 20, but the number of forest wolves is relatively small, and there are many groups of two or three.

  Because of the great competition for survival, the prairie wolf needs a strong hunting ability, so it appears to be more aggressive. But wolves in the forest, as long as they don't go to death, have few natural enemies, so they are very weak in aggressiveness.

   Especially not attacking people very much.

  Wang Tianxiao lived in a forest farm while patrolling mountains in his previous life. He often woke up in the morning with two or three wolves lying at the door. When people got up, they would lazily jump down the mountain ridge and leave.

   He just steals sheep and besieges donkeys.

   But what is interesting is that a wolf is no match for an adult donkey at all, and it is often the wolf that is kicked so that it cannot take care of itself. The donkey has a very stubborn temper, and with that kind of energy, the tiger is not afraid, let alone the wolf.

  In terms of size, wolves are not suitable for donkeys, and wolves tend to revolve around their prey when they prey, first stun the prey, and then attack suddenly. However, compared to turning in circles, who can compare with a donkey.

  But although wild beasts will not take the initiative to hurt people, the forest at night is still not the main battlefield for humans.

  Many carnivores rest during the day and mainly come out to forage at night. If they easily touch their territory, it may be regarded as a declaration of war and attack humans.

  Humans can't see at night, but many beasts can see at night. If you want to fight them at night, it's purely to use your own shortcomings to collide with other people's strengths.

   "Come on, let's rest here."

  Wang Tianxiao and Wang Tiancheng came under a thick catalpa tree.

  The tree is very strong, it seems that two trees grow together, each has two or three waists thick, and when they are joined together, it is surrounded by several people.

   Two people can see the surrounding environment clearly by leaning against the two sides of the tree.

  They didn't light a fire. The winter forest is very dry, and there are many fallen branches and bark of birch trees and pine and cypresses on the ground. A little carelessness can cause a fire. People who often live at the foot of the mountain are well aware of the horror of fire, so they are very concerned about this.

   "Brother, will we meet a bear?"

  Wang Tiancheng hadn't entered the mountain at night yet, he said he was afraid, more out of curiosity.

   "Probably not," Wang Tianxiao tore open half of the pancake and handed it to his younger brother. "Black blind people have poor eyesight, and now they are hibernating, so it is generally difficult to come across them unless something disturbs them."

He took a bite of the frozen pancake, swallowed it with difficulty, softened it with his saliva, and said with a smile: "Besides, bears usually move in slightly deeper mountains. Our current position is not far from the outside of the mountain, and they certainly won't come over."

"why?"

   "Bears are omnivores. They mainly eat the seeds and fruits of some plants, and also eat some small beasts, so their main plants are in the deep mountains."

  Wang Tianxiao thought of something, and smiled again: "Besides, although bears are very fierce, they are almost at the top of the food chain in this forest, but they are still far behind humans."

   "How can we humans mess with bears?"

   "Because humans are smarter than bears, if their brains are not smart enough, it doesn't matter how strong they are. So bears are so powerful, they can only live in the mountains, while we humans look weak, but live outside."

   "Oh." Wang Tiancheng was thoughtful.

  The moonlight shone on the forest floor, dragging the shadows of the two brothers very long. The two were talking and laughing, and it was late at night before they knew it.

   "Meow!"

  Suddenly, there was a piercing scream in the forest.

   Both of them were surprised.

  Wang Tiancheng grabbed his brother's sleeve suddenly from behind, and asked nervously, "Why are there cats in the forest?"

   "It's not a cat. There's no way a feral cat could run into the forest and survive at all."

   "But it was just meowing."

  Wang Tianxiao signaled his younger brother to keep his voice down, and explained to him: "There are many animals that sound like wild cats, for example..."

   "Ah, brother, you mean a leopard?!"

  Wang Tiancheng shrank his head, and his expression became more nervous. He slipped over from behind the tree and sat down next to his brother, looking around constantly.

  There are all kinds of trees around, and there are weeds and shrubs that are not afraid of the cold. He feels that the leopard may swoop out from any angle.

  Wang Tianxiao nodded, his palms sweating slightly.
