He pushed the door and went in, seeing his sister-in-law Liang Yuemei steaming buns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why not sleep a little longer?\" Liang Yuemei asked with a smile, \"Anyway, there's nothing to do, and you've been tired for two days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I set some rabbit snares yesterday and plan to go check them in a while.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle, Uncle! You set rabbit snares? When will you get them? Can I go with you?\" Li Qiang shouted from the inner room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it's too far, you can't walk that far.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm not afraid of being tired!\" Li Qiang was at the age of being active and curious, and he ran out of the inner room, saying excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where did you set the snares?\" Liang Yuemei asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Red Willow Flat, have to walk one and a half kilometers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then let him go, follow along to exercise. It'll be time to eat when you get back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\" Li Long nodded, turned his head to Li Qiang and said, \"Dress warmly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom, I want to go too.\" Li Juan suddenly spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long took Li Juan and Li Qiang and headed east, following yesterday's footprints.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle, how many rabbits can we catch this time?\" Li Qiang asked while walking. His pant legs were tightly tied to his cotton-padded shoes to prevent snow from getting in. Although walking was very troublesome, he was excited at this moment and couldn't feel tired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Juan followed at the end, carrying a urea bag, without saying a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't know, maybe not even one.\" Li Long said while walking. He had to take into account the speed of the two children and didn't walk fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fields were a vast expanse of white, but reeds grew on the field ridges. This plant had too strong a vitality; even if you dug out the roots and dried them outside for a few days, they would still sprout after being buried in the soil for a few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So at this stage of farming, the most annoying thing was this. More than ten years later, a certain special herbicide would come out, and with one wipe, the reeds would die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long remembered that when he first came, he followed the tractor that was plowing the land and picked up the roots of the reeds, peeling the white roots and chewing them, which was sweet, just like eating sugarcane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said to be a traditional Chinese medicine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mind was wandering, and he didn't even hear Li Qiang's question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle, Uncle! How much further?\" After walking less than a kilometer, Li Qiang couldn't walk anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look ahead,\" Li Long collected his thoughts and pointed to a patch of red willows ahead:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That patch of red willows is the place.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you don't want to walk, then go back!\" Li Juan didn't give her brother any face at all, \"You were the one who wanted to come!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't want to go back, it's almost there.\" Li Qiang encouraged himself, \"Maybe we'll see rabbits as soon as we get there!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reached the Red Willow Flat, all three were panting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long took the urea bag and asked the two siblings:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you going in with me, or waiting here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to go in!\" Li Qiang raised his hand, and Li Juan didn't speak, but also raised her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, follow behind me; step where I step.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked inside along yesterday's footprints and soon reached the location of the first snare. A bit disappointed, it was empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second, third, and fourth snares were all empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Juan and Li Qiang could see the snares and were also very disappointed to see nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Continuing inside, Li Qiang couldn't help but say:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle, are we going to return empty-handed today?\" Not seeing any rabbits, full of disappointment, his voice already carried a crying tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long wanted to laugh. The little guy endured the fatigue and followed with full hope, only to see not a single rabbit; this disappointment was a bit big.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't talk!\" Li Juan habitually suppressed, \"What if you scare the rabbits away?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long's words of comfort were held back; having an older sister watching her younger brother really worked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang stopped talking and continued to follow silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rabbit, rabbit!\" A moment later, Li Long stopped, and Li Qiang shouted excitedly when he saw the rabbit that had already frozen stiff on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An adult gray rabbit weighing two or three kilograms was strangled by the snare and was already hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long untied it along with the wire snare and put the rabbit into the bag. \"Uncle, Uncle, let me see!\" Li Qiang said excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't talk!\" The equally excited Li Juan didn't forget to pat Li Qiang, \"What if you scare the rabbit away?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang was used to it; he didn't care at all, took the bag, pulled the rabbit out, and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So heavy! I don't know how much meat there is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, unlike the children in the future who would say how cute a rabbit is, the children now, when they see a rabbit, the first thing they think about is whether it can be eaten. The future wouldn't understand, but it was very normal now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an era of scarce meat and oil, wouldn't you eat whatever game you caught? At this time, there was no animal protection law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long continued to walk forward. Li Qiang carried the bag, and Li Juan wanted to take it, but he wouldn't give it to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Another one, alive!\" This time, Li Qiang's voice was even louder!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under a large red willow, a gray rabbit was almost strangled to death, spitting blood foam from its mouth. Seeing someone coming, it, which had been motionless, struggled violently, and the more it struggled, the tighter the wire snare became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long went over, grabbed its ears, and after much difficulty untied the wire snare after lifting it up, then brought it to Li Juan and Li Qiang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look, it's almost dead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was smaller than the previous one, still spitting blood foam from its mouth, but its vitality was still very strong. Li Long suspected its trachea had been strangled open, but the blood vessels hadn't, so it was still alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle, can I hold it?\" Li Qiang asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No,\" Li Long hurriedly stopped him, \"This guy is very fierce, and its claws carry disease, you can't grab it... touch it, touch the back of its head.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Qiang immediately touched it, then immediately retracted his hand, fearing being scratched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Juan also touched it, and touched it again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long twisted the rabbit's head and put it into the bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, two more dead ones were found. This time, Li Long carried the bag himself; the four rabbits weighed almost ten kilograms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When turning back, at the edge of the Red Willow Flat, Li Long unexpectedly found another live one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This one was jumping around and must have just entered the snare. It was lying under the red willow roots, sticking to the ground; if your eyes weren't good, you really wouldn't see it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Li Long reached it, it suddenly jumped up and kicked toward Li Long!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It actually attacked actively!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also the largest of the five rabbits. Li Long was quick-eyed and fast-handed, grabbed its ears, and lifted it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That rabbit was also experienced. Being lifted by Li Long, it actually bent its body and kicked hard toward Li Long with its hind legs!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle, be careful!\" Li Juan saw it and shouted anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long thought to himself, could I let this little rabbit hurt me? He held the rabbit's ears and smashed it hard onto the ground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because it was restricted by the wire snare, the force wasn't great. The rabbit was thrown, but it actually got up and prepared to escape. Li Long grabbed its ears again, swung it, and smashed it hard onto the ground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, its soul was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long then untied the wire snare, put the rabbit into the bag, and carried it home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle, you're really amazing!\" This time, Li Qiang said it sincerely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long smiled, feeling a bit proud in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to the team, they met their neighbor Xie Dafa from the front courtyard on the road. Xie Dafa was two years older than Li Long and often let the young people like Li Long call him Brother Fa. Later, two years later, when \"Shanghai Bund\" was performed, Xie Dafa was often teased, but he didn't get angry, habitually saying: \"Then I call it foresight—I came first, and then the TV came, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Fa saw Li Long and the others returning with a bag and asked from afar:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Long, why are you out so early?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Li Long could speak, Li Qiang rushed to say:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle Fa, my uncle took us to catch rabbits! We caught several!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long thought to himself, Li Qiang, you big mouth!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don't you know you should be low-key?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Fa was both curious and surprised:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Catch rabbits? How to catch?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Long explained with a smile:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not catching, it was the snares I set yesterday. The luck was quite good overnight, and I caught a few.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me see.\" Brother Fa didn't quite believe it, reached out to open the bag mouth to look inside, and was amazed to see live rabbits:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Long, you're amazing! Many people in our team have heard of rabbit snares, but few can make them. I didn't expect you not only to make them but also to catch rabbits. Amazing! Tomorrow, I'll learn from you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the three Li family members return to the courtyard, Xie Dafa sighed, this second son of the Li family, his luck is too good!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The new round of recommendation status will be out this afternoon. I don't know if I can get the information for the second round of recommendations. I'm feeling uneasy... Thank you for everyone's monthly tickets and recommendation tickets, thank you Brother Fa for the reward, the small characters have been sent out, please check!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1741,"2026-06-14T06:06:39.549Z",1,"Qwen3.5 122B","ee8f01094fcea7ea298a0a32a5dca76add243c92c365cfd3996959a8ef95e606","reborn-in-1981-fishing-and-hunting-in-the-northw-chapter-54","reborn-in-1981-fishing-and-hunting-in-the-northw-chapter-52",180,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-1981-fishing-and-hunting-in-the-northw-cover.jpg"]
