Li Weidong, who was carrying a bag, 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 Li 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, Li Weidong had seen the wild orchard halfway up the mountain and was a little 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, Li Weidong had an idea. 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 Li Weidong's plan, in the future, in addition to all kinds of food, he would also build an orchard so that he could eat fruits of 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.
Li Weidong drooled as he thought about it.
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, Li Weidong followed them obediently without expressing 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 precisely because of this that only after Li Shuquan organized the group and brought a gun could the village 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.
Li Zhankui, who was the last one, immediately took the gun off his shoulder.
There were only two guns in the entire team.
Second Uncle had one, and Li Zhankui had one.
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.
Li Weidong 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."
Li Haibo slammed the steel rod into the ground and took out a slingshot made of a truck's inner tire from his pocket.
As the best slingshot player in the village, the stones used by Li Haibo 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.
Li Weidong had played with a slingshot before, but his aim was terrible.
Li Haibo took a deep breath and exerted strength with both arms. The tough belt was pulled open.
Li Weidong 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 Li 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.”
Li Haibo touched the pheasant and said with a smile.
Although this hunt was organized by Li Shuquan, he had long said that the prey he killed belonged to him.
However, Li 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.”
Li 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."
Li Shuquan looked around and came to a place with feces. He squatted down and used a wooden stick to fiddle with it.
