Even as the captain of the village militia, he could drive on behalf of them.
"This is simple. You stay at home. I'll bring people up the mountain tomorrow morning.”
Chen Shuquan didn't say anything and directly agreed.
As for the flour, he didn't ask further.
Obviously, from his point of view, this flour was what his big brother had asked Chen Zhengyu to bring back. It could be considered as an 'exchange' for the two wild boars.
No one was at a disadvantage here.
It was a matter that belonged to his family.
Even if Chen Zhengyu came back empty-handed, he would not frown at all.
In reality, Father Chen had no intention of giving him any 'benefits' at all. The two brothers had known each other well over the years and knew each other's temperaments.
Only Chen Zhengyu felt embarrassed, so he took out this bag of flour.
"Do you have a gun?"
Chen Zhengyu became spirited when he raised his gun.
Playing with guns was every man's dream.
The Host had touched it twice in the past, but even though he grew up in the countryside in his previous life, by the time he was sensible, guns had long been banned. There was no place to touch it even if he wanted to.
And now, the supply and marketing cooperative was even selling guns.
Since there was such a good opportunity, he definitely had to enjoy it.
"Are you going to fight a wild boar without a gun? If you want to play, I'll find a chance to let you shoot me tomorrow.”
Chen Shuquan didn't even lift his eyelids as he said indifferently.
In his opinion, this was simply a small matter that could not be any smaller.
The next day, Chen Shuquan picked up a few strong young men, took their guns, and went straight into the mountains.? Chen Zhengyu was carrying a bag and was second to last. He looked at his second uncle who was carrying a gun in front of him and felt a little envious.
His bag contained the flour and steamed buns that his second aunt had steamed overnight. It was lunch for the five of them.
He knew two of them, at least in the original owner's memory.
There was only one person who was a little unfamiliar.
The other party's name was Chen Zhankui. Like Second Uncle, he was a soldier who had just returned. He was 22 years old this year.
Judging from his appearance, the other party was slightly shorter than him. His skin was dark, and he had a buzz cut. His eyes were shining brightly, and he had a fierce aura.
On the way, he did not say anything. He just followed silently at the back, his eyes constantly patrolling.
In the early winter, the vegetation in the mountains had all withered, and one could see very far at a glance.
Earlier, when Chen Zhengyu saw the wild orchard halfway up the mountain, he was somewhat tempted.
Although he had only cultivated one plot of land in the game farm, it was not full yet, so he planned to plant something else.
Fruits were the first choice.
He retrieved the memories of the wild orchard from the original owner's head. There were apples, walnuts, persimmons, chestnuts, dates, pear trees, and peach trees.
Even though it had not been cultivated and the fruits were a little astringent, it was still a paradise for the children in the village.
Every year, when the fruit trees had just bloomed, countless children would start to look forward to it.
It could be said that they were looking forward to it.
Therefore, when he saw the wild orchard, Chen Zhengyu had some ideas. When there was no one around, he would secretly dig up a few smaller saplings.
This way, it wouldn't be long before he could eat fruits.
Nowadays, unless it was some local fruits, everyone could still try them when they first came down.
For example, in the south, there were basically only a few portions or canned food.
Especially canned oranges, which were an important gift for visiting relatives during the new year.
According to Chen Zhengyu's plan, in the future, in the game farm, other than all kinds of food, he also wanted to build an orchard so that he could eat fruits from all seasons at any time.
However, he hadn't even fully utilized the first grid yet. He had no clue how to reclaim new fields.
Sometimes, he even wondered if he could use energy to transform the fields in the game farm.
For example, ponds could be used to raise fish, turtles, abalones, sea cucumbers, crabs, shrimps, and other aquatic products?
Or, they could turn it into a pasture and raise animals that could eat meat like chickens, ducks, pigs, cows, and sheep.
When that time came, he would be considered self-sufficient and live a happy life.
As he thought about it, Chen Zhengyu started drooling.
It seemed that he would have to struggle for a period of time before he could completely lie flat.
When he returned to work, he would first study how to increase the efficiency of energy absorption.
After all, energy was the foundation of everything.
After entering the mountain, Chen Zhengyu followed obediently and did not express any opinions.
Hunting should be left to the professionals.
If he was asked to trap a rabbit, it would definitely not be a problem. How many children who grew up in the countryside had not done this before?
However, it was his first time hunting a wild boar.
If you didn't have a gun, you really wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
With that thick skin, it would be useless even if you used a machete.
Moreover, wild boars were very fierce. After provoking them, they would really attack. After a few collisions, you would only be able to lie in bed for the rest of your life.
It was because of this that only after Chen Shuquan organized the group could they bring guns to hunt wild boars.
The reason why wild boars were hunted every year was not only to add meat to each household, but also because wild boars were easily overtaken when there were no restrictions.
At that time, a big one would lead seven or eight small ones and they would be able to clean up the crops in one night.
In a situation where food was so precious and scarce, wild boars were guilty.
Not only wild boars, but sparrows were also one of the famous four pests. They had to find ways to kill them.
They probably never dreamed that after a few decades, they would actually become protected animals.
The big guy was walking when suddenly, Second Uncle in front raised his hand, and the small team immediately turned silent.
Chen Zhankui, who was the last one, immediately took the gun off his shoulder.
There were only two guns in the entire team.
Second Uncle, one pole. Chen Zhankui, one pole.
Both of them had experience in the army, and their marksmanship was far superior to that of those who came from the wilderness.
Before they were fed with a large number of bullets, it was better for ordinary people not to use guns to hunt.
Chen Zhengyu followed his uncle's finger and saw a pheasant standing vigilantly on a small hill twenty to thirty meters away.
It looked as if it would fly away at any moment.
"I'll do it."
Chen Haibo slammed the steel rod into the ground and took out a slingshot made of truck inner tubes from his pocket.
As the best slingshot player in the village, the stones that Chen Haibo used were carefully selected by the river and polished.
As for accuracy…
It could be said that if a chopstick was set up 20 meters away, it would break from where it was said to break.
His beautiful wife had been lured home by him when he had nothing to do.
Now that he had discovered the pheasant, it was naturally time for him to show off his skills.
Chen Zhengyu had also played with a slingshot before, but his accuracy was a little too horrible to look at.
Chen Haibo took a deep breath and exerted strength with both arms. The tough belt was pulled open.
Chen Zhengyu didn't even see him aim before he let go.
The round stone pierced through the void and hit the pheasant in the head the moment it sensed danger and was about to flap its wings.
"Plop."
Although the pheasant was hit in the head, it did not die immediately. Instead, it fell to the ground and struggled.
Only then did Chen Haibo quickly step forward and step on the pheasant. He took out a small knife from his pocket and aimed it at the pheasant's neck. He slashed it fiercely and began to bleed.
The pheasant looked big, but in fact, it didn't weigh much. It was only about two catties.
But it was enough to satisfy the entire family.
"Not bad, this pheasant is quite fat. Let's roast it for lunch.”
Chen Haibo touched the pheasant and said with a smile.
Even though this hunt was organized by Chen Shu Quan, he had long said that the prey he hunted belonged to him.
However, Chen Haibo had always been generous. After he got something, he would often take it out to share.
Therefore, he had always been very popular in the village.
Although there were also people who were jealous of him behind his back and called him stupid, in reality, this was where he was smart.
After all, in this collective era, even a needle or a thread could be a big problem.
"I'm in luck."
"Did you bring salt?"
"Don't worry, when have I not brought salt into the mountains?”
Immediately, the two of them started discussing.
"Alright, let's find that group of wild boars first. Later, we'll all go to my house. There's good stuff.”
Chen Shuquan called out, and everyone continued to move forward.
Only when they arrived at a mountain valley did they slow down.
Not far away, he could see a pool with a stream flowing.
"Looks like my luck is pretty good today."
Chen Shuquan looked around and came to a place with feces. He squatted down and used a wooden stick to fiddle with it.? It was not Chen Shuquan's first time hunting wild boars. He knew the habits of these wild boars in the mountains like the back of his hand.
He picked up the feces on the ground and the footprints to determine the direction of the wild boar.
Then, a group of people followed the trail and chased after him.
Wild boars had a wide range of activities in the mountains, but they usually had a fixed place to drink water and defecate.
Chen Shuquan said that he was lucky because he saw that the feces were still fresh.
Otherwise, they could run more than ten miles if they followed the tracks of the wild boar.
The truth was as he had expected. After walking for two to three miles, everyone saw a group of wild boars puffing and puffing in a small forest.
Two of the wild boars were big, and there were about ten small ones. They belonged to the same family.
"Focus on the two big ones.”
Chen Shuquan removed the gun from his shoulder and said to the taciturn Chen Zhankui as he reloaded the gun.
"Yes."
Chen Zhankui nodded, his cold face expressionless.
There was neither the excitement of shooting nor the excitement of harvesting wild boars.
It was as if it was a very ordinary thing.
However, his eyes were as sharp as a hook, and he was obviously serious.
Chen Haibo and Chen Haiyang held the steel drill, ready to rush forward at any time.
Only Chen Zhengyu 'hid' at the back.
Among them, he was the youngest and was Chen Shuquan's nephew. Everyone took care of him intentionally or unintentionally.
Everyone crouched down and stopped when they were fifty to sixty meters away from the wild boars.
Chen Shuquan was half-squatting on the ground, while Chen Zhankui only spread his legs apart and steadily raised the Type 56 semi-automatic in his hand.
Although the effective range of this thing could reach 400 meters, it was not something that ordinary people could play with.
It was already very good for an ordinary person to hit a target that was fifty to sixty meters away.
"I'll go left, you go right. Count to three."
“3，2……”
Behind him, Chen Zhengyu subconsciously held his breath. The atmosphere was inexplicably depressing.
When Chen Shuquan finished the last number.
Two gunshots sounded almost at the same time.
Then, Chen Zhengyu saw that the eyes and necks of the two large wild boars in the distance had exploded into a flower of blood.
The wild boar that was shot in the eye was directly knocked down, while the wild boar that was shot in the neck crawled up after falling to the ground.
After that, another gunshot was heard before it was completely put down.
"I'm getting old."
Chen Shuquan put down his gun and shook his head. He looked at Chen Zhankui with admiration.
In the past, his spear technique could be ranked first in the village, but now, he could only abdicate.
Although Chen Zhankui killed it with one shot, he did not have the slightest bit of pride. He aimed at the remaining small wild boars that were beginning to scatter and fired three more shots.
In the end, two small wild boars fell.
Even though he wasn't 100% accurate, to be able to hit moving prey at this level, Chen Zhankui could only be said to be amazing.
"Second Uncle, let me do it, let me do it."
Chen Zhengyu finally couldn't take it anymore. He leaned forward and stared at the gun in his second uncle's hand with fervent eyes.
Chen Haibo and Chen Haiyang were the same.
"Let Da Kui teach you."
Chen Shuquan threw the gun in his hand to Chen Haibo and asked Chen Zhengyu to look for Chen Zhankui.
Chen Zhengyu didn't stand on ceremony and went straight to Chen Zhankui's side.
"The aftereffect is a little strong. Be careful."
Chen Zhankui passed the gun to Chen Zhengyu, reminding him while teaching him the correct shooting method.
"Lie down, use your shoulders to support yourself, and hold your left hand tightly.”
For people who had never touched a rifle, it was very dangerous to fight while standing.
Even in the army, the recruits would start lying down.
Chen Zhengyu obediently lay on the ground. Before he could get ready, gunshots had already sounded beside him.
By the time he followed Chen Zhankui's instructions and looked into the distance, the person on the other side had already changed.
However, Chen Zhengyu was not anxious, even though those small wild boars had already scattered and fled further and further away.
Finally, when he was ready, the little wild boar could only see a small dot.
Not to mention him, even a Sharpshooter couldn't do anything about it.
Chen Zhengyu was not obsessed with hunting prey. He just wanted to have fun.
When his finger was pressed against the trigger, Chen Zhengyu was so nervous that he could not breathe.
He secretly cursed himself for being useless and tried to calm down. He looked through the crosshair and aimed at a tree fifty to sixty meters away.
"Bang!"
The sudden explosion made his ears buzz, his face flushed red, and his adrenaline surged.
The tree must have missed. He didn't even see where the bullet went.
However, this did not stop Chen Zhengyu from being very happy.
After a while, he pulled the trigger again.
Chen Zhengyu only stood up after he had emptied the magazine of bullets.
However, his shoulders were already a little numb, and his ears were buzzing.
"It's always like this in the beginning. It'll be fine after you practice more and get familiar with it.”
Chen Zhankui said something that was rare.
"Should I call you Big Brother Kui?"
Chen Zhengyu returned the gun to Chen Zhankui and began to speak.
"Anything is fine."
Chen Zhankui did not care about the seniority in the village.
"How many years have you been in the army? Why did you suddenly come back?"
Chen Zhengyu flipped through his memories and vaguely remembered something.
Anyway, when the Host was thirteen or fourteen years old, Chen Zhankui was no longer in the village.
Moreover, he lived at the eastern village entrance. He seemed to have an old mother and two younger brothers and sisters at home.
His family background was not very good.
"Six years. I came back when my family was short of people.”
Chen Zhankui said it very calmly, like plain water, without any taste in it.
Chen Zhengyu didn't pursue the matter. Being able to be a soldier for six years also meant one thing, and that was that Chen Zhankui was not ordinary.
As for the lack of manpower at home, which family did not lack manpower these days?
There must be something inside that he didn't know about.
However, this did not stop Chen Zhengyu from being interested in him.
After Chen Zhengyu, Chen Haibo, and Chen Haiyang were done with their gun cravings, everyone walked towards the two wild boars.
"Whoa, this one is 300 catties, right?”
Chen Haibo kicked the big wild boar whose eyes had exploded and gave Chen Zhankui a thumbs up.
"Captain, now that Da Kui is back, do you want to come over a few more times in the future?”Haiyang Chen couldn't help but say.
He knew that these two wild boars were helping Chen Zhengyu to fight. Regarding this, they did not have the slightest objection.
Because Chen Shuquan had bought the bullets with his own money.
It was different from the operation in the village.
As for them, they were called to help, so they naturally wouldn't be jealous.
"Alright, when it snows, call more people and do something big.”Chen Shuquan nodded.
Although it was snowing and it was difficult to walk in the mountains, it was relatively easier to hunt wild boars.
It was also more convenient to pull it out.
"Alright."
Hearing Chen Shuquan's agreement, Chen Haibo and Chen Haiyang excitedly took out their knives and began to bleed the two wild boars and cut open their stomachs.
For example, the liver and intestines of a domesticated pig were all good things.
However, the internal organs of this wild boar had a fishy smell, so it was impossible to eat it.
Therefore, he might as well throw it away to reduce the burden.
This time, there were five of them, two big wild boars and two small ones. Even if they removed their internal organs and reduced their weight, they still weighed about 500 to 600 pounds.
It was also hard work to carry it out.
However, compared to the gains, everything was worth it.
