Chapter 187: Answer

Every time entering the mountains, the first thing is to check the snares and clamps, and the places where the three of them set snares are also moving deeper and deeper into the mountains.

No way, even if there are many jumping cats, they can't withstand such dense snares waiting for them!

Of course, there is absolutely no need to worry that this thing will be wiped out!

In places where snares have been set, the number of jumping cats has just decreased, so going to set snares again, the harvest will definitely decrease, so they can only keep changing places.

As long as there is no plague or poison, relying only on iron wire snares, it can't have much effect.

Because this thing is only captured in large quantities by people in winter, because in winter, there are traces of them to follow on the snow.

And when the grass and trees are lush, the snares will completely lose their effect, because there is no place to set snares, and no traces to follow.

When wanting to hit jumping cats in summer, one can only use a gun. However, there are also many experts with slingshots who can hit and kill one or two a day.

The three of them finished checking the snares and clamps, and the harvest could only be said to be half-half. A total of 52 jumping cats, and because the clamps had already been checked once yesterday afternoon, besides 2 flying dragons, nothing else was clamped.

The three of them drove the sled and started checking the sable clamps. Driving the sled to check clamps is actually just taking a look as you pass by, so the speed is quite fast.

The first 3 places were empty, and only the clamps in the 4th place were quite powerful. But after seeing the harvest, the three of them didn't even have a hint of joy in their eyes.

Because what this clamp clamped was indeed a marten, but it was a yellow-throated marten that was useless.

And because of the existence of this yellow-throated marten, the three of them couldn't help but worry about the clamp array in this place, because among all the natural enemies of sables, the yellow-throated marten is one of them, and it accounts for a considerable proportion.

Although these two things are both martens, the yellow-throated marten doesn't care about this or that. If it's hungry, it even eats its own kind, so how can it care about what kind of marten you are!

If the only sable is eaten by a yellow-throated marten, then besides clamping mountain rats or big-eyed thieves, these clamps are basically useless here.

However, as long as it's a person, they will have a fluke mentality. So after the three of them took away the yellow-throated marten along with the clamp, they didn't move any other clamps, just praying for that one in ten thousand chance!

After checking the remaining two clamp arrays, besides clamping 2 big-eyed thieves in the last place, there was still no harvest.

Big-eyed thieves are also meat, and they are also delicious meat, so they were all collected by Wang An, intending to throw them into the stove to burn them cooked after going home and distribute them to the three younger sisters.

Although they only clamped two big-eyed thieves and one useless yellow-throated marten, the three of them didn't have a hint of depression, still bragging and chatting, showing off all the way, because this is the normal situation for clamping sables.

The three didn't delay and headed straight for the badger holes.

On the way, Wang Li asked: "Fourth brother, when are we going to find the entrance to that stone mountain?"

Because he had planned it long ago, Wang An answered without thinking: "Wait until we go to the county this time, get the money for the blue sheep skins, and then we'll go."

At this time, Mu Xueli suddenly asked curiously: "Brother-in-law, do you say there are boxes of big ten-yuan bills in that stone mountain?"

Hearing this, Wang An was stunned, and then looked at his brother-in-law with the eyes of looking at an idiot. But what made people speechless was that Wang Li was also looking at Wang An with excitement, seemingly wanting to know this answer!

Wang An scanned left and right, these two idiots who were the closest to him besides his family, and explained helplessly:

"The little Japanese announced unconditional surrender on August 15, 1945, and our New Huaxia was established in 1949. The big ten-yuan bills were issued in 1966..."

Looking at the two's confused little expressions, Wang An continued: "Then you two tell me, which little Japanese crawled in after 1966 to put the money?" It's just that Wang An didn't know that what he said this time truly slapped his own face!

Only hearing Mu Xueli say: "Brother-in-law, do you have any impression of the little Japanese spy incident that was making a big fuss some years ago?"

Wang An had heard of this incident in his past life. He remembered that at that time, they were catching spies every day, and even children fighting said the other side was a spy.

Of course, hearing is hearing, but this kind of thing didn't have much to do with ordinary people, so although he had heard of it, he truly hadn't seen what a spy looked like.

"Hmm, all Northeasterners know, what do you want to say?" Wang An asked casually.

"Hmm, brother-in-law, do you say, is it possible that those people were the ones who came for the things in the stone mountain?" Mu Xueli said while pondering.

After Wang An heard this, he suddenly felt that what his brother-in-law said made sense. This was truly something that wasn't certain. Otherwise, for no reason, why did those beasts come to the Northeast?

Thinking of this, Wang An looked at his brother-in-law in surprise and said: "Not bad, Xueli, your big head truly didn't grow in vain."

When Mu Xueli heard Wang An praise him, he immediately said cheaply: "Then look? If there weren't brother-in-law comparing, I would also be quite good!"

This conversation added to Wang An's curiosity, which was already curious. It's just that Wang An couldn't figure it out. Besides the ventilation holes, the whole mountain had no flaws at all. But where the hell did this entrance go?

The three of them finished this conversation, and the sled arrived near the dirt pile near the badger hole. They tied the stallion and fed it grass.

The three of them released all six dogs. Wang An and Mu Xueli shouted a few times at the dogs: "Sniff, sniff-sniff," and then the six dogs started sniffing all over the ground.

This time, after the dogs finished finding the badger holes, a total of three cave entrances were discovered. Wang An first probed with a tree branch to see which cave was straighter.

Then he blocked one of the two crooked caves and used an extra-large firecracker without hesitation.

The key is that setting off this extra-large firecracker is truly satisfying!

And setting off one basically solves the problem. There's no need to set off two-kickers or large firecrackers anymore.

Sure enough, after a loud bang, the scene of yesterday reappeared. However, this time, after Wang An set off an extra-large firecracker, he immediately took a pickaxe handle and ran over.

Then the three people and six dogs, again shouting and showing their teeth, were busy for a while.

Fortunately, whether it was the dogs or the people, this battle was fought with more experience than yesterday. Not a single badger ran away, and the six dogs were no longer scratched.

A total of 15 badgers were harvested, but four badgers weighed less than 10 jin. Stabbing and bleeding, only feeding the dogs half-full, because there was another badger hole to go and dig out.

15 badgers, the three of them worked together, and soon finished opening the stomachs and peeling the skins. The reason for the speed was mainly because badger skin is easy to peel. Even Wang Li, who wasn't very skilled at peeling skin, wasn't left behind much by Wang An and Mu Xueli.

After finishing, the three drove the sled with the six dogs tied to it, heading straight for the last badger hole.

After the same procedure as digging the previous badger nest, the three of them started the shouting and teeth-showing battle for the last time today.

It's just that this nest of badgers brought the three of them a small surprise.
