Chapter 412

Consequently, Wang Shuai also took out his military knife and squatted down.

However, the first thing Wang Shuai did after squatting down was to pluck a mushroom cap and put it directly into his mouth.

Mu Xueli, who was cutting mushrooms, raised his head and saw this scene, instantly widening his eyes and saying:

"No, Brother Wang, you, eating it raw?"

Wang An and Wang Li, hearing Mu Xueli's words, also looked at Wang Shuai and were almost simultaneously stunned by Wang Shuai's action.

Following that, the three of them laughed out loud almost simultaneously.

Because Wang Shuai spat out the mushroom in his mouth again.

To tell the truth, winter mushrooms are fine to eat raw, and the taste is quite fresh.

However, mountain mushrooms all have a commonality, which is that they are gritty, meaning they have dirt.

If this stuff isn't washed clean, you don't even dare to close your teeth when eating; that feeling is quite uncomfortable.

Actually, no matter how delicious something is, if it's gritty, no one can taste the deliciousness.

Although Wang Shuai spat out the winter mushroom in his mouth, he said very approvingly:

"Mm, this mushroom is okay; the taste is really not bad."

Wang An and the others, seeing this, laughed even louder.

Only hearing Wang Li say with a smile:

"Brother Wang, you say why are you in such a hurry? It's not too late to eat after washing it clean when we go back."

Wang Shuai, upon hearing this, said with a very serious expression while bragging:

"You don't understand this; many things, only with this most primitive way of eating, can one taste its most real flavor."

However, just after Wang Shuai finished saying this, his stomach made a "gurgling" sound very cooperatively.

It was a continuous sound of several times.

In this quiet woods, this long "gurgling" sound sounded so clear.

The four people first fell silent collectively, looked at each other, and then Wang An and the others laughed out loud again.

Wang Shuai rubbed his stomach and laughed a bit embarrassedly:

"My stomach seems to be hungry."

After the four people chatted and bragged while cutting all the winter mushrooms, the sky had completely darkened.

Wang An looked around and said:

"Alright, the sky will be dark soon; let's go back. Hazel grouse stewed with winter mushrooms, and drinking a bit of small wine, it's quite comfortable."

After Wang An finished speaking, Mu Xueli immediately took over:

"You saying this makes me so greedy that my slobber is about to flow out."

Wang An glanced at Mu Xueli and scolded:

"What? Is this hazel grouse to your taste now? Are you not thinking about flying dragon soup anymore?"

Mu Xueli laughed dryly "hehehe," and only then said embarrassedly:

"Why think about flying dragon soup when there's something to eat? By the way, Brother-in-law, let's go back from the front; I feel like we might run into something else ahead."

Actually, Wang An thought the same; if we run into something, we'll take it; if we take the road we came, there definitely won't be anything.

So Wang An patted Mu Xueli and smiled:

"Okay, this time you be the leader; the brothers will listen to you."

Mu Xueli smiled upon hearing this but didn't answer.

Then the four people and three dogs strolled forward.

Just as they were about to finish walking along this mountain hollow and had to go up the mountain ridge, Da Hei hummed a few times and dashed out again.

Er Hei and San Hei, just like Da Hei's shadows, basically achieved the level of following like a shadow.

Anyway, as long as Da Hei ran, Er Hei and San Hei would immediately chase after it.

This time, Wang An still didn't chase after the dogs.

However, he did speed up his pace; after all, the sky was about to be completely dark, and it would be troublesome if he couldn't see anything later.

A few minutes later, the four people hadn't caught up with the dogs, but the three dogs came back themselves.

And while coming back, each dog had two gray rabbits in its mouth.

Wang An saw this and was quite happy; this wasn't the first time these three dogs had hunted by themselves.

That time Wang An and Mu Xueli led them into the mountains to hunt a big bear, and they all came back with pheasants in their mouths; this time it was the same.

Wang An greeted them and wanted to take the rabbits out of the dogs' mouths.

But Da Hei actually dodged, and hummed a few times in its mouth.

This really stumped Wang An; Wang An blinked and asked Da Hei with a smile:

"What? You want to eat?"

Only seeing Da Hei, upon hearing Wang An's words, actually nodded like a person, and at the same time made a sound similar to a human's "mm, mm."

Wang An was instantly amused and couldn't help but laugh and scold:

"Look at your useless appearance; which meal have I missed giving you canned meat?"

It would have been better not to mention the three words "canned meat"; as soon as they were mentioned, the three dogs didn't hold the hazel grouse in their mouths anymore.

They directly put the hazel grouse on the ground and almost simultaneously started barking at Wang An, and while barking, they shook their tails.

Wang An looked at the three dogs blankly and guessed:

"What? That canned meat doesn't taste good?"

Da Hei stopped barking and nodded like a person again.

Immediately afterward, Da Hei picked up the two hazel grouse again, and Er Hei and San Hei, seeing Da Hei's action, also picked up the hazel grouse.

Wang An looked at the three dogs, but his brain fell into deep thought.

Is that canned meat really that bad? Bad enough that dogs don't even want to eat it?

It's really damn strange!

However, Wang An still said:

"Alright, I know what you mean; send them over quickly, and I'll give them to you to eat after plucking the feathers when we go back."

Hearing this, Da Hei ran over happily and put the two hazel grouse in front of Wang An.

And Er Hei and San Hei also learned from Da Hei and sent the hazel grouse in their mouths to Wang An.

After putting the six hazel grouse into the sack, Wang An asked Da Hei:

"Why are there only six? Are there any more?"

Da Hei looked at Wang An, turned around and ran, and after running a few steps, looked back and barked at Wang An a few times.

Wang An, seeing Da Hei's action, greeted the other three:

"Brothers, let's go; there's still work ahead."

After Wang An finished speaking, he carried the sack on his back and followed Da Hei forward.

And this scene shocked Wang Shuai on the side.

After Wang Shuai and the others chased Wang An for a few steps, Wang Shuai said to the three of them very surprisingly:

"Aiya, damn it, it's really awesome; can your dogs really understand human language?"

Mu Xueli, on the side, answered:

"That's a must, but among these ten dogs, only Da Hei can understand human language."

Wang Shuai, upon hearing this, muttered:

"I thought military dogs and police dogs were already smart enough; I didn't expect mountain trekking dogs, when trained well, to be even more outstanding than them."

Wang An said with a smile:

"You're wrong about that; Da Hei was bought by me, and I don't know how to train dogs."

Wang Shuai was stunned upon hearing this, but immediately asked with great interest:

"Tell me quickly, what is the origin of this Da Hei?"

For telling stories, Mu Xueli is still the best, so Wang An signaled to Mu Xueli with a smile.

Meaning: It's your turn to perform.

It could be seen that compared to hunting and skinning and removing meat, Mu Xueli likes storytelling more.
