Chapter 84 Go deep into the mountains
Wait until you bring Pingping and Dahu with you.
After walking two miles out of the yard, Han Xiaokang remembered: It was noon now and he hadn't eaten yet!
Previously, Han Xiaokang and A Ju each ate a peach. With such a high sugar content, they didn't feel hungry at that time.
Later, they sucked the poison from Zhou Min and wiped Ah Ju's back. After all the busy work, she forgot to eat.
Now after walking forward for a while, I feel hungry.
So Han Xiaokang walked to the entrance of the small valley where his cousin Liu Hongdong lived, turned around, and planned to go to Liu Hongdong's place for a meal first.
Liu Hongdong and Zhou Jian lived in this valley, and they brought quite a lot of food.
This is because when a breeding pig breeding base was established, the livestock station actually gave Liu Hongdong some grain as feed for the breeding pigs.
Moreover, Liu Hongdong himself brought 32 kilograms of food rations into the mountains.
It is said that every month from now on, the animal husbandry station will ask someone to deliver the feed for the breeding pigs to Wujiazhai Production Team 8, and Liu Hongdong will just go out to pick it up.
It's just that when Zhou Jian and his brother came into the mountains, they basically had nothing growing on them.
Because burying Zhou Jian's father had already used up what little food they had left, Zhou Min and Zhou Jian had to leave some living expenses to his mother after the funeral.
So when the two siblings came into the mountains, apart from a change of clothes, each of them carried only a few kilograms of food.
As for money? There is not even a penny left.
Like Zhou Min, she lives with Han Xiaokang and A Ju, and can rely on her words and hard-working hands to earn the share of food that Zhou Min deserves.
As an old man, Zhou Jian came here with nothing but food to live with Liu Hongdong, so he could only work more and rely on his own strength in exchange for a meal.
Already.
Wait until Han Xiaokang walked into the small valley.
Cousin Liu Hongdong was boiling feed for the breeding pigs in his shack and making lunch for two people.
All he did was light work.
The hard-working Zhou Jian was sweating profusely at the entrance of the small valley, building a stone wall as the first line of defense against wild beasts.
Seeing Han Xiaokang coming over with a backpack and a gun, Zhou Jian asked, "Brother Kang, are you going to go hunting?"
Han Xiaokang nodded, "When you are building the stone wall, pay attention to making the area a little larger. In the future, you can reclaim some wasteland behind the stone wall to grow some food. Otherwise, we will not live here in the same place."
How can we survive the two years without planting some land?"
Zhou Jian wiped the sweat from his forehead, straightened up, and smiled sheepishly at Han Xiaokang, "Both you are farming and raising pigs? That's a good relationship, Brother Kang. But I have something I want to ask for."
you."
"Tell me, you're not an outsider, what's there to be so polite about?"
"Brother Kang, after I finish the walls and houses here, I want to go hunting with you so that I can make some money."
To survive in the mountains, having all kinds of materials is the best way to survive. Money is useless.
However, Han Xiaokang understood clearly from Zhou Jian's words: He wanted to make some money, and then go out and buy some necessary production materials.
In this way, by being stationed in the mountain, Zhou Jian can carry out planting and breeding projects with peace of mind.
After all, if you want to do these things, you can't do it without buying some seed farming tools, chickens, ducks and geese.
If the pheasants and rabbits in the mountains are not well raised, if there is even a little bit of movement, these animals in captivity will kill themselves.
Here Zhou Jian and Han Xiaokang were chatting and eating. The little monkey and the little wolf were fighting fiercely with the four little pigs in the pig pen.
I saw the little macaque jumping off the back of the boar for a while, and then jumping on the back of another sow, riding it like a horse.
When these little pigs had enough to eat and drink, their playful nature came out.
I saw the little boar flipping Pingping to the ground for a while, and then lying on its side on the wolf cub, rolling on the ground with it.
And often at this time, the little macaque will jump over and help the little wolf Pingping.
Perhaps it's because the little macaque and the little wolf both lost their parents when they were young, and both of them seriously lack maternal love.
As long as there are no two tigers causing trouble and threatening the little wolf to draw a clear line with the little macaque, the wolf and the monkey can actually play well together.
In the pig pen, the little wolf, the little macaque, and the four breeding pigs had a great time playing.
Dahu, on the other hand, squatted quietly outside the pigsty and did not get involved in the playful games inside the pigsty.
It just stared at the cliff opposite with a deep expression on its face, not knowing what it was thinking in its mind.
After Han Xiaokang had discussed with Zhou Jian and Liu Hongdong, he would get them two gunpowder guns when he went out to the mountains next time and got money from selling them.
Then, under the guidance of the little macaque, he took a wolf and a dog and continued to explore the mountains.
The reason why he agreed to get fire guns for Zhou Jian and others was that he lived in the mountains and was always on guard against attacks by wild beasts.
Especially when the four breeding pigs grow older, their excrement will become more and more abundant, and the smell of the breeding pigs will become stronger and stronger.
At that time, it is inevitable that some large beasts will be watching.
also,
When Zhou Jian has the gun and the work at hand is not busy, he can go out to catch some prey and come back to supplement his living expenses.
If Zhou Jian and Liu Hongdong have these equipment, it will be a good thing for Han Xiaokang himself: even if he does not return to the mountains for a long time, Aju will at least have some basic guarantees for her daily life and personal safety.
Therefore, this is the reason why I want to equip Zhou Jian and others with fire guns.
Today I followed the little macaques, and the whole way was through the wilderness with no roads at all.
But Han Xiaokang was very tired!
Even the little wolf Pingping and the big tiger were covered with all kinds of thorns and weed seeds, as if they had just been fished out of the garbage dump, looking extremely embarrassed.
Walking and walking, I kept going deep into the mountains and forests.
He didn't know how far he had walked, but when Han Xiaokang came to a place filled with many flowers, he saw the large slope in front of him covered with flowers, and countless colorful butterflies and wild bees were busy collecting nectar.
Could this be the legendary Baihua Slope?
The last time I went out into the mountains, I encountered a group of old hunters fleeing for their lives.
They said at that time that there were many young people here who had just entered the mountains, and because they were greedy for rock honey, they attracted brutal revenge from the wild bees.
As a result, many people died here.
Looking at the hillside full of wild flowers in front of him, Han Xiaokang couldn't help frowning and stopped there to seriously consider: Should he risk passing through Baihua Slope?
If you can get a few wild bee queens here, take them back, divide them into boxes, and try to breed bees in the mountains, so as to increase yourself a stable income.
At the same time, I can also provide Ah Ju with a stable source of honey.
Then you might as well take the risk and give it a try.
But the question is, how can I get the wild queen bee?
