Chapter 150: fox dog
??Chapter 150 Jackal
?? "Then what is there not to allow? The people in our commune, every year around this time, gang up and go up the mountain.
??We have a temper with Brother Xu, so we want to find you together. "
??Fangshan, most of them are looking for a partner who gets along with each other on weekdays. Like Xu Shiyan last year, he was simply forced to help.
??Although Xu Shiyan has not been in Donggang for a long time, he has made a lot of friends.
??Before, they gathered Niu Maoguang together and planed Gastrodia elata together, and they both felt that they were very compatible, so this time they came to Xu Shiyan again.
?? "You all said that, then go ahead and find the candidate. Everyone knows the rules of letting go of the mountains. You want to be single or not double.
??It’s best to know how to ride a bicycle. If we want to go, we can go a little farther. I don’t think we have a share in the nearby places. "
?? It would be nonsense to say that Xu Shiyan is not tempted. Since everyone wants to go, let's go into the mountains together, and we will meet if we don't get together.
??When everyone heard that Xu Shiyan agreed, they were all very happy, so they negotiated and decided to go up the mountain the day after tomorrow, which is the 16th day of the seventh lunar month.
?? After the discussion, those few hurried home to prepare things.
??Xu Shiyan also hurriedly cooked and ate, and then rummaged through the boxes to find all kinds of tools and clothes for Fangshan.
??The next day is July 15th, the Hungry Ghost Festival. At this time, it is not allowed to go to the grave to burn paper. Besides, the Xu family has no ancestors here, so there is no need to pay homage.
??So Xu Shiyan was resting at home to coax the children this day, and Su Anying happened to have the opportunity to cut a lot of beans, eggplants, and cucumbers to dry.
??This is the case in Zhuanghuyuan. The summer sun-dried vegetables are good for winter and spring.
??After the beginning of autumn, the weather is dry, and the dried vegetables are not easy to mold and grow hairs.
??Usually, Su Anying wants to coax the children, so she can only take the opportunity to cut less. This time, with Xu Shiyan's help, Su Anying cut a lot, and the west yard is all over the floor.
??The sun is very good. After one day, those vegetables will be half dry.
??In the evening, Xu Shiyan helped to pack everything up, and after drying it the next day, it was almost ready to be put away.
??In the early morning of July 16th, Xu Shiyan, Huang Shengli, Sun Xiaofeng, Feng Chao, and Zhou Qingguo.
??Five people, each carrying sixty to seventy kilograms of luggage, set off from Donggang on a bicycle and walked eight kilometers to Baixi Forest Farm to the protected area.
??Changbai Mountain Nature Reserve was established in 1960 and is divided into general protection area and absolute protection area.
??The management of protected areas is not so strict these days, and outsiders are generally allowed to enter protected areas.
?? It was not until after 1982 that the general protected area and the absolute protected area were abolished and set up for unified management. After the management regulations were promulgated in 1988, strict management was implemented.
??From Donggang to the protected area, Xu Shiyan chose the shortest road, which is still 70 to 80 kilometers away.
??In this year and month, there are all firewood roads, which are incomparable with the cement roads and asphalt roads of later generations. It lasted until after two o'clock in the afternoon, and finally arrived at the scheduled location.
??Xu Shiyan visited Maanshan Forest Farm for several years in his previous life, and went to the mountain every year, so he is very familiar with the vicinity of the reserve.
??The familiar road led everyone to enter from a forest path, and found a sunny hillside.
??When you arrive at the place, you still first set up the master's mansion, then build a shack and collect firewood.
??Xu Shiyan was chopping wood with an ax when he suddenly saw something and ran over not far away.
??That thing has brown-red fur, looks like a wolf, but is smaller than a wolf, with a few tufts of black hairs on the tip of its tail, has a thin waist and short legs, and is quick to move.
?? "What just ran over?"
??Among them, Zhou Qingguo was the only one who had never been in the mountains before. He left as a soldier when he was eighteen. He came back last winter. How could he have a chance to go into the mountains?
??So when he saw something running past, Zhou Qingguo wanted to chase it.
?? "Qinguo, you don't want to die, dare to chase it?" Xu Shiyan hurriedly called Zhou Qingguo to stop.
?? "Do you know what it is? Do you dare to chase after it rashly?"
??As soon as Zhou Qingguo heard Xu Shiyan's words, he knew something was wrong.
?? "Was that a wolf or a fox just now?" Zhou Qingguo asked uncertainly.
??Xu Shiyan shook his head, "It's not a wolf or a fox.
??That thing, don’t look at its small size, even the ancestors of wild beasts in the mountains, tigers, leopards, bears, and pigs are afraid of it.
??If a hunter brings a dog into the mountains and dares to provoke it, even the dog and man will be finished. "
?? "Huh? What is so powerful?"
?? Over there, Feng Chao and Sun Xiaofeng were also dumbfounded when they heard this. They had never heard of this kind of animal before.
??It is Huang Shengli, the grandfather and father of the family can hunt, and the old man in the family has said it, so he knows what it is.
?? "Brother Xu, are you talking about jackals?"
?? "Yes, that's the thing." Xu Shiyan nodded.
?? Jackal, the name of the local people, is actually a jackal, and people in the mountains also call it a red wolf.
?? Jackals are smaller than wolves, but their sense of smell, hearing, and vision are sharper than wolves. They are quick in action and good at running. They are the enemies of many animals in the mountains.
?? This thing is very cunning, relying on its own quickness, it jumps onto the opponent's back like a gust of wind, grabs the opponent's neck like a pincer, and bites the throat fiercely.
?? No matter how strong the beast is, it will not be able to break free until its throat is bitten off.
?? Everyone in the mountains knows the temper of jackals, so no one dares to provoke it, so it is rare to hear of jackals hurting people.
??After listening to Xu Shiyan's explanation, Zhou Qingguo heaved a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I didn't catch up just now, otherwise it would be quite dangerous."
?? Zhou Qingguo went up the mountain with a gun, not for hunting, but for self-defense.
??Just now he was just curious for a while, but when he thought about it now, it was fortunate that he didn't follow up impulsively after hearing Xu Shiyan's words, otherwise it would be really awkward.
?? "When you enter the mountain, you have to abide by the rules of the mountain, even if you are carrying a gun, that is not acceptable.
??We are here to free the mountains, not to hunt, not to be in danger, and not to provoke animals. "
??There are many rules in the mountains, and the emphasis is on the harmonious coexistence between man and nature. Most people do not go hunting when they enter the mountains.
?? Unless you have been in the mountains for too long and have nothing to eat, there is no way, most of them are setting traps to catch roe deer or something.
?? "Hey, I see, Uncle Third, I will follow your orders." Zhou Qingguo nodded repeatedly.
?? For a person like him who has never let go of mountains, it would be nice to be able to take him with him. He doesn't dare to talk about it, it's better to be obedient.
?? Several people speeded up their actions, quickly set up the floor, and built a fire outside at night.
??Several people sat around the fire, eating and chatting while warming the fire.
?? Chatting until after eight o'clock in the evening, Xu Shiyan asked everyone to go back to rest.
?? "Have a good dream tonight, tell me about your dream tomorrow morning."
??According to the rules handed down by the elders, Fangshanren’s dream is not for nothing, there are all kinds of sayings.
??Many people followed the guidance of dreams to find the club, so Xu Shiyan would tell everyone that.
?? The shack was covered with grass and roe deer skin mattresses. Xu Shiyan fell asleep not long after lying down.
??In the deep mountains and old forests, from time to time, some wild beasts could be heard, especially wolves, whose breath was soft and loud, and the movement was really scary.
?? Sleeping until midnight, Xu Shiyan felt a smell of urine.
??He felt strange and got up to check, only to see a shadow running away at high speed.
??The shadow looked like it was the jackal I saw in the afternoon. Cooperate with the guy to pee nearby.
