Chapter 7

~8 min read 1,494 words

Pulling the sled, he continued to walk home slowly.

Today's experience was truly beyond Wang An's expectations. Who were these three animals? Where were they from? Wang An didn't know at all! And they didn't give him a chance to know!

They wanted his life as soon as they came up. This habit seemed to be carved into their bones, and they seemed to have received simple training!

Looking at today's situation, they didn't know how many people they had already killed! He almost lost his life today!

He often heard the old people and hunters in the village say: "The mountains are dangerous, big claws and black bears are not the fiercest! The fiercest are those who want your life directly!"

Wang An hadn't thought about the meaning of these words before. Linking his past and present life, he suddenly had a feeling of great enlightenment: "Whether outside or in the mountains, the fiercest are always people!"

And the mountains in this era were really quite chaotic. Someone made up a jingle, very vivid:

Those carrying flower baskets to pick in the mountains,

Those hunting and seeing blood in the mountains,

Those carrying sticks to lift ginseng and shouting in the mountains,

Those chopping wood and firewood in the mountains,

Those looking for gold and mines in the mountains,

Those fleeing famine because they can't eat,

Those fleeing disaster and misfortune,

Those fleeing after killing and arson,

Are all damn seeking wealth!

This last sentence hit the nail on the head. These mountains are all-encompassing, fish and snakes are mixed!

To say a thousand or ten thousand words, crows shouldn't call wild boars black, they are all damn for money!

In his past life, in the village and nearby villages, there were people who went missing in the mountains. Their families couldn't find them, so they said they were kicked to death by mountain animals, and then set up a cenotaph...

Without seeing the remains of the corpse, without seeing the clothes, shoes, hats, and other items on the body, and the gun also disappeared, the person just evaporated and couldn't be found!

Thinking of his own actions today, this is damn terrifying to think about!

And thinking that those who went into the mountains with the missing people but returned safely, or those who went into the mountains on the same day... what the hell is this situation??

Wang An, who had already "greatly enlightened," felt more and more terrified the more he thought about it! His pace quickened a bit!

Finally, Wang An concluded: "Should find a wife, otherwise I'll be thinking aimlessly every day."

More than two hours later, it was already dusk, and Wang An returned to his home gate.

Although he had experienced a thrilling vomiting! But Wang An now was not hungry... not hungry at all!

He dragged the sled directly to the door of the house. Wang Dazhu, Liu Guilan, Wang Yi, Wang Xiaomei, and Wang Xiaoli heard the movement outside and all ran out.

"Oh! My eldest son is really fierce, caught a live silly roe deer!" Liu Guilan said pleasantly.

"Yeah, this silly roe deer's leg was broken, so I couldn't bear to kill it."

Wang An said while carrying the sack containing the three animals' things to the kang in the west room.

He heard his little sister shouting outside: "Big brother is the most powerful, big brother is the most powerful." The reason it's called little sister is because she is five years old and still has a bit of a lisp.

After coming out, he saw Liu Guilan carrying the sack containing the pheasants, hare, and fox into the outer room.

His father Wang Dazhu followed behind, moving the big dead roe deer, and Wang Yi followed his father, moving the small roe deer.

In a little while, only the live roe deer was left on the sled, "ah-ao," "ah-ao" calling.

The family looked at the live roe deer and smiled foolishly. The two younger sisters were trying hard to touch the roe deer's head, which was always dodging, and their two mouths were muttering: "Silly roe deer, you are so cute!"

"Silly roe deer, let me touch you! After touching you, I should stew you."

"Silly roe deer, are you delicious?"...

Wang An heard his two sisters' words and had black lines on his forehead! What kind of "heroic words" are these?

He couldn't help but say: "Dad, Mom, I don't think our family can eat this live silly roe deer, how about I sell it tomorrow, okay?"

Liu Guilan thought for a while: "Yeah, right now, our family has enough meat to eat, so let's sell the live one! Or should we keep the small one and sell the big one?"

Wang Dazhu didn't say anything; the family was basically decided by Liu Guilan.

"It won't sell for much money, this roe deer meat doesn't seem to be worth much!" Wang An said suspiciously. He hadn't sold this stuff either.

"Even if it's not worth much, it's more valuable than grain! Pork is 7 mao a jin, this stuff, even if it's bad, must be two or three mao! And we don't need coupons."

"Yeah, we'll see, let it thaw first, then peel it later."

"Let's move this live one to the west room, don't let it freeze to death outside overnight, that would be a waste."

Saying this, Wang Dazhu and Wang An lifted the live roe deer together and walked into the house. Liu Guilan hurriedly pulled a bundle of Ula grass and spread it on the floor of the west room!

Seeing this Ula grass, Wang An suddenly thought of the three treasures of the Northeast: ginseng, sable fur, and Ula grass!

Now his family, these three treasures, seemed to be complete! Felt so awesome!

Walking to the outer room, he saw Liu Guilan dumping the sack, a fox, a hare, and two pheasants fell out. Seeing the fox, Liu Guilan was obviously stunned, not happy or angry!

She just said to Wang An very plainly: "Don't specifically hunt this stuff in the future."

She didn't say it was good, nor did she say it was bad...

Wang An decided to listen to his mother!

The three little ones ran into the west room to tease the silly roe deer!

While the prey was thawing, Wang An carried the sack containing the three animals' things to the east room, closed the west room door! Called Wang Dazhu and Liu Guilan to the east room, and closed the east room door too!

Old operation, dumped everything on the kang, and repeated today's encounter!

Neither of the couple cared about what was on the kang! Anxiety, lingering fear, fear, worry, concern... all kinds of complex emotions were on the couple's faces!

Liu Guilan even had tears coming down! She kept pinching and patting Wang An's body to check, checking so carefully.

Seeing the state of his parents, Wang An was deeply moved again!

He thought of a passage in a magazine he read in prison in his past life: "The most sincere emotion in the world is only the love of parents for their children!"

"I'm completely fine, really!" Wang An kept explaining!

"I'm so fierce, could I let them bully me?"

Neither of the couple said it was wrong for Wang An to kill! That's the only good thing about the mountains. In the face of such life-and-death right and wrong, it's just killing!

No one cares whether it's illegal or not! It seems that in this situation, killing is no different from killing a chicken or a pig!

After the couple checked Wang An's body, Liu Guilan said with tears: "How about we don't go into the mountains, we can just farm and earn work points, it's also quite good, a bit bitter and tired, but we can live well!"

Wang Dazhu pointed to the things on the kang and also said: "If you don't want to farm, we can sell these things and ask someone to get a job at the logging camp!"

"Yeah, the logging camp is safe, it's better than risking your life in the mountains every day!" Liu Guilan said.

Wang An heard this and knew it was bad. The couple was truly scared!

He hurriedly explained: "Dad, Mom, you don't have to worry, today's matter has nothing to do with going into the mountains, I just ran into robbers!"

"Then who can guarantee that you won't run into robbers for a lifetime? Isn't that right, Dad, Mom? That is to say, if you go to the county town, if you run into robbers, what can you do?"

"Where aren't there robbers, besides, I have a gun, and it's a good gun..."

Wang An persuaded his parents with a lot of words, and finally dispelled his parents' various unrealistic ideas.
