Chapter 110

~9 min read 1,680 words

After finishing the fence and throwing a few bundles of corn stalks to the yellow sheep, the father and son returned to the house!

Liu Liu Guilan and her daughter-in-law Mu Mu Xueqing had also just finished skinning the yellow sheep. It was frozen too hard, and mainly, thawing it took too much time.

Yellow sheep skin is about the same as roe deer skin; neither is worth much money, but their warmth retention is very good, and they are lightweight, making them very good fur for coats!

In fact, whether it's roe deer skin or yellow sheep skin, they both belong to leather, soft leather, but because of the era, they aren't worth much. If you make thin leather jackets or thin leather pants, they are top-notch things!

And things like fox fur, big skins, and tiger cub skins are the serious furs. After being made into clothes, they are also called fur coats, which are both warm and beautiful! So they are very valuable!

Although leopard skin is beautiful, there is basically no one who can truly wear it on their body!

This thing is extremely rare and expensive, usually placed on chairs, mainly used for decoration! The symbolic meaning is more than anything else!

Because the true name of the leopard is "money leopard," and "money leopard" is a homophone for "money explosion" or "money bag." Sitting on a "money explosion," or being wrapped by a "money bag"!

What does that feel like? Isn't it seriously quite refreshing?

Of course, these things are all done secretly now; no one dares to openly play with any "money explosion" or "money bag"!

Doing that is not much different from having lived enough and wanting to seek death!

But most people like this thing, which is also a tacitly understood matter!

At eight o'clock in the evening, the family lit a kerosene lamp and finally ate yellow sheep meat.

The whole family was eating with joy. Although meat had never been lacking in the house since Wang An was reborn and started mountain hunting, this was the first time eating mutton.

And yellow sheep meat doesn't make people feel greasy no matter how you eat it. I saw the little sister Wang Wang Xiaoli nodding while eating, muttering: "So yummy, really yummy!"

While eating, little sister Wang Wang Xiaoli suddenly said: "Big Bro, stop hunting pigs from now on, just hunt sheep, sheep are yummy."

The whole family was stunned for a moment, then all burst into laughter.

"Okay, whatever little sister says to hunt, Big Bro will hunt," Wang An said while laughing.

Little sister Wang Wang Xiaoli was chewing meat in her mouth, opened her mouth, and maybe it wasn't convenient to speak, so she nodded quite seriously! This caused the whole family to burst into laughter again.

When sleeping at night, Wang An, who had eaten quite a bit of mutton, felt his whole body was on fire, especially a certain part, which was almost about to spit fire!

In a few moves, he turned Mu Mu Xueqing into a bare Mu Mu Xueqing, and then Wang An impatiently climbed up.

Early the next morning, before the sky was even bright, Mu Mu Xueli arrived at Wang An's house.

At this time, Wang An and Wang Wang Dazhu were already fully prepared. Because they were going to haul prey, they didn't bring dogs. The three of them each drove a sled and headed straight into the mountains.

Because there was too much meat, Wang Wang Dazhu took the initiative to ask to go into the mountains together. Three sleds were enough to haul all the prey back.

And Wang Wang Dazhu also brought a long hook usually used for hitting pine nuts or hazelnuts. This hook was a full six or seven meters long, and placed on the sled, it was seriously quite in the way!

But when Wang An saw this hook, his eyes lit up, and he instantly discovered that his dad's brain was truly useful, simply prescient!

Because those yellow sheep had all been chased into the snowdrifts by the wolf pack. Yesterday, Wang An had been seriously quite exhausted dragging those living and dead ones out. If he had this big hook, wouldn't it save a lot of effort!

On the way, the three of them didn't make any delays and headed straight for that depression. As for the harvest from those traps, yellow sheep were obviously more important.

This time it was familiar territory, so the speed was also faster. Three and a half hours later, the three of them arrived at the edge of the depression.

He saw Wang Wang Dazhu look around, then tied a long hemp rope to the tail of the long hook, and pulled it twice with his hand to test if it was tied firmly.

He glanced at Mu Mu Xueli, then instructed Wang An: "Xiao An, you go down into the snow pit, use the hook to hook the sheep's chin, and I'll pull up with Mu Xueli."

Hearing this, Mu Mu Xueli immediately said: "Uncle, let me go down into the snow pit, you and my brother-in-law pull." As he spoke, he was about to jump into the snow pit.

Seeing this scene, Wang An felt quite gratified in his heart. In terms of working, his brother-in-law truly never slacked off!

But in this kind of matter, how could the father and son be on top and let an outsider be in the pit?

So, Wang An directly grabbed Mu Mu Xueli and said: "Listen to your uncle's arrangement, why are you so disobedient?"

After Wang An finished speaking, he looked for a piece of snow that hadn't been stepped on by yellow sheep, and then jumped down.

And then... Wang An disappeared!

Wang Wang Dazhu and Mu Mu Xueli were stunned at the same time, staring blankly at the snow pit Wang An had jumped into. Mu Mu Xueli was just about to shout when he saw Wang An crawl out again!

He saw Wang An crawling out of the snow, standing in waist-deep snow, holding his snow-covered hat in his left hand, brushing the snow off his head and face with his right hand, and saying angrily:

"Oh my god, I was careless! My hat fell into the snowdrift! Made me fumble around blindly."

The two who were originally worried were instantly speechless. After a while, Wang Wang Dazhu said with disappointment: "Twenty years old, lived for nothing!"

Mu Mu Xueli saw his brother-in-law's miserable state and heard him getting scolded. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, holding it in until he seemed seriously quite uncomfortable, because that big face was distorted from holding it in!

The three began to pull the sheep, their coordination seriously quite tacit. Wang An hooked the dead yellow sheep with the hook thrown over, and Wang Wang Dazhu and Mu Mu Xueli pulled them out from above the pit.

Just like this, one yellow sheep carcass after another was dragged out of the pit. Wang Wang Dazhu and Mu Mu Xueli were very happy; only Wang An felt nothing!

Wang An's biggest feeling was exhaustion. Moving in the snowdrift was a very difficult thing, requiring the use of both hands and feet, crawling and rolling to make it!

And he had to maintain good balance, otherwise, he would lie down as soon as he said so, and occasionally he could even drill into the snow, giving his face a snow bath!

The most annoying thing was that as long as he lay down or drilled into the snow, the snow would drill into his collar. That icy cold feeling was seriously stimulating!

Some yellow sheep were also frozen in the snow, requiring the use of a board axe to chop the snow, which was even more difficult on top of difficulty!

To tell the truth, this hunting method is seriously quite good, neither wasting guns nor bullets, just picking up sheep!

It's just a bit hard on Wang An, but Wang An is young and can take the abuse; it doesn't matter how hard it is!

Finally, at a little past 12 noon, all the yellow sheep carcasses were dragged clean!

Wang Wang Dazhu threw the hook over one last time, intending to pull Wang An up together with Mu Mu Xueli.

Wang An grabbed the hook with both hands, and Wang Wang Dazhu and Mu Mu Xueli pulled with all their might from above.

Because the place where the hook connected to the wooden pole was tied with a thin hemp rope in circles, it just so happened that when Wang An stepped on the edge of the pit and was about to come out, the thin hemp rope broke!

It broke right on time, and it was clean and neat!

Wang An grabbed the hook tightly with both hands and fell straight backward, shouting: "Oh shit!"

Then he heard a "poof" sound, and Wang An fell into the snow pit lying down and disappeared again!

Wang Wang Dazhu and Mu Mu Xueli were holding the wooden pole, pulling seriously quite hard. Due to the sudden breaking of the rope and the effect of inertia, the two of them held the pole tightly and fell down!

Only the wooden pole was quite gossipy; when the two of them fell, it stood upright in the air, poking its head to look at the snow pit Wang An had left in the snowdrift!

Actually, whether it was Wang Wang Dazhu and Mu Mu Xueli, or Wang An, none of them were hurt, because they all crawled up on their own.

"Oh shit! This damn hook has a grudge against me!" After Wang An crawled up, he stood in the snowdrift, looking at the hook and saying angrily.

"What grudge? Get up here quickly!" Wang Wang Dazhu might have felt a bit embarrassed about falling, so he said angrily while extending the pole down.

Follow-up reads depend on asking, tickets depend on rewards!
